Chapter 1252 Dad, Beat Them Up
Gasol guarded the basket.
Haslem wanted to follow up, but was stopped by Li Ba at the top of the arc, and then he received the pass.
Xiaoha made a jump shot and hit one.
At 2:12, the Suns took the lead.
Zhang Lili said: "Xiao Ha also made a shot. Now that the Suns can make shots from both insides, do the Heat still want to let them go?"
Xu Jicheng said: "The Suns didn't do much on the outside today. They just attacked with a hammer, and then pulled out from the inside to shoot."
Yu Jia said: "I think the Suns just want to give it a try. The Hammers and the inside will play first. If there is a chance to win, then the outside will work harder. If there is no chance, give up this game. The outside will not work hard and prepare physically for the tiebreaker. .”
"Hey, it's possible. This guess is reasonable. Ginobili and Ray Allen really don't move much. They all play while standing." Zhang Lianda said.
On the sidelines, Pat Riley was expressionless and did not change his tactics.
He has coached Haslem for many years and knows this undrafted player very well. He has no ability on the offensive end and his shooting percentage will definitely drop if he takes too many shots.
The Heat attacked, and James took another shot. This time, his shot was affected by UAE's block and he missed the jump shot.
Under the basket, Xiao Ha relied on his excellent positioning skills and defensive attitude to withstand Bosh, and then Li Ba picked off the backcourt rebound over Gasol's head.
"The combination of Bosh and Gasol still can't beat the combination of the Hammers and Haslem. The Heat's rebounds today were terrible. The Hammers showed their strength and grabbed all the rebounds. This is the fourth time."
Buckley said.
The Suns attacked and Xiao Ha got an open shot again.
Li Ba passed the ball to Xiao Ha again, and then rushed into the basket to grab the rebound.
But this time Xiao Ha missed the mid-range shot. Gasol was in the right position to protect the backcourt rebound.
But just as he turned around to pass the ball, Li Ba in front of him swung his hand and picked the ball out of his hand.
Xiao Ha was clever, grabbed the ball with quick hands and eyes, and then handed it to Li Ba.
Li Ba caught the ball and was immediately double-teamed by James above and Gasol below. He forced himself to get up and was hit on the wrist by James.
At this time, the whistle sounded, the referee pointed at James, the thug fouled, and he made two free throws.
"James is guilty." Yu Jia shouted.
Li Ba missed the first free throw and made the second free throw. At 2:13, the Suns led by 11 points.
Next, the Heat continued to shoot from the outside, but they did not have an explosive touch. The overall shooting rate was only 38%, and the offensive end was inefficient.
Li Ba and Haslem controlled the rebounds very well and took advantage of the shots. The Suns had 13 rebounds in a single quarter, while the Heat only had 7.
On the offensive end, the Suns still relied on Li Ba to break through and use sudden scoring tactics. With Li Ba's shots, the overall hit rate reached 53%. Coupled with the advantage in shots, the Suns played very well on the offensive end.
17:34, the Suns won by 17 points in a single quarter, which just doubled.
Li Ba made 8 of 8 shots in a single quarter, 4 of which were second attacks after grabbing offensive rebounds. He made 6 of 10 free throws and scored 22 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
At the same time, he also caused two fouls by Gasol, one foul by Bosh, and one foul by James.
The UAE made 3 of 6 shots in the first quarter, all open jumpers, and scored 6 points.
Xiaoha made 2 of 5 shots and his hand was average.
Ginobili and Ray Allen almost didn't take any shots and only contributed on the defensive end.
The performance of the two teams in the first quarter made countless media reporters drop their jaws.
Barkley said after the first quarter: "The Heat's performance is really surprising. Did Pat Riley think the match point was in the hands of the Heat? Don't forget, this is the Suns' match point."
Kenny Smith said: "Yi's point must not be let go, but Haslem's point can be let go. Pat Riley did not make an obvious mistake. But the reason for the defeat in the game was still the lack of restrictions on the Hammers. In place.”
Barkley nodded and said: "Look at the Hammers' data in the first quarter. This is data that other superstars can only get in the whole game. Such a performance leaves the Heat with nothing to do."
Kenny Smith said: "Xiao Ha also pulled out of the paint area today, which is different from the past. This played a key role and gave the Hammers room to break through.
Even if Gasol let go of Xiao Ha later, in terms of rebound control, Gasol couldn't grab the Hammer and was beaten by the Hammer into four secondary attacks. The Heat were unable to defend the Hammer's offensive end.
At the same time, we can see that James cannot prevent the Hammer from breaking through on the outside. His turn and first step are slower than the Hammer, and his strength is weaker than the Hammer. He cannot prevent the Hammer from breaking through, nor can he stop the Hammer. of points. "
Barkley continued: "On the offensive end of the Heat, the rebounds were weak in the early stage. Although they strengthened rebound control in the later stage, they still could not regain the advantage. They lost 6 in a single quarter. This is a huge gap. And the Heat basically There were very few outside attacks and secondary attacks, with a shooting percentage of less than 40%. Adding in the number of shots, this is why the score was doubled.”
The atmosphere on the Suns bench was very good.
Tracy McGrady, Carter, Hill, Nash and several other injured veterans were all there, and they were all very excited and couldn't wait to go on the field and give it a try.
Ginobili asked: "Gary, Hammer, can Ray and I take action in the second quarter? Our physical energy consumption in the first quarter was very small."
Ray Allen is also eager to try.
Payton glanced at Li Ba, shook his head and said: "You can take shots in the second quarter, but not too many. Just treat it as a warm-up. Continue to conserve your physical fitness. You will go all out in the second half."
At this time, the atmosphere on the Heat's bench was very dull and tense.
In the past two or three days, under the praise of the media, all the Heat players were a little confused, but the first quarter of the game made them completely sober.
"Cheer up, everyone. If we lose this game, this finals will be gone. No more. There will be no tiebreaker. Our efforts throughout the season will be trampled under the feet of the Suns and the Hammers, and it will be in vain." It’s worthless, are you willing to fail?”
"James, are you willing to be stepped on by a hammer forever?"
"Wade, are you willing that when people talk about the Class of 2003, they will always only talk about the Hammer?"
"Bosh, what about you?"
Pat Riley roared at the bench.
A little time was quickly consumed in his roar, and it was time for the second quarter.
"Everyone comes on stage. You won't have any rest time. If you lose this game, you can rest as long as you want."
Pat Riley blasted all the starters onto the field and continued to roar behind them:
"Remember, control him and we can win the game. There is only one opponent you have, and that's him!"
Having said this, he pointed to Li Ba.
The three James giants all stared at Li Ba. The latter was startled, sneered, raised his right fist towards the three of them, and said angrily:
"What are you looking at? Do you want to provoke me? Do you want to get beaten?"
"What a bastard!"
James, the three of them and Pat Riley all had their faces twitching.
"Dad, beat them!"
Guoguo was jumping around, waving her little fists, shouting in a high-pitched voice, and was quickly covered by her mother.
"Haha..." The whole audience burst into laughter.
