The Godfather of Basketball

482 Casey's Worship (3/4!)

Back from the timeout, Spoelstra replaced Haslem with Wade, and the bench also played a small lineup.

Wade's debut made the Heat much stronger on both offense and defense.

The scores of the two sides also began to reach a stalemate.

After halftime, the score between the two sides was 56 to 53, and the Heat ended the first half with a 3-point lead.

Wade scored another 13 points in the second quarter and scored 32 points in the half, breaking his playoffs halftime scoring record.

Like the Anthony that the Cavaliers met in the first round before, the difference is that the Heat have firmly grasped the situation on the court.

"You can limit Wade for 2 games, but you can't limit him all the time, he is Dwyane Wade!" Before halftime, the on-site commentator was a little emotional and shouted directly.

The fans at the scene were also bursting with cheers. They had been held back for too long in the first two games, and the explosion at home came at the right time.

At the end of halftime, James got up and said a few words to Wade, and the two laughed and didn't know what to say.

The midfielder came back and the game between the two sides continued.

"I think the coaching staff of the Cavaliers must have a headache at halftime." As soon as he came back, the commentator on the sidelines seemed a little complacent.

"Yes, they...the Cavaliers have made adjustments." Just as the guest commentator was speaking, he discovered that the Cavaliers had changed their starting lineup in the second half.

The starters in the first half were Paul, Green, Carter, Artest and Yao Ming.

But in the second half it was Paul, Carter, Parsons, Artest and Yao Ming.

What can be clearly felt is that the offensive ability of the Cavaliers' new lineup has become stronger.

"They want to get more points on the offensive end, but they still can't limit Wade." The commentator smiled and shook his head after reading it.

Tang Tian has never made a mistake before, but it seems that this time he fell into Spoelstra's hands.

Come up the Cavaliers' offense, Paul holds the ball to the frontcourt, facing the double team, calmly passes the ball to Carter, Carter shakes off Jones, takes the ball to break through the basket, attracts Beasley's defense and then passes it to Artes Special, the latter caught the ball and scored a layup.

Spoelstra didn't change his face. It's a good thing that the striker of this lineup can be defended, and there is nothing to blame if he can't.

As long as Wade can play on the offensive end, they still have an advantage at home.

Chalmers dribbles upfield and hands the ball to Wade.

Wade on Carter.

Carter is old and his defensive ability is not as good as Green before. Wade accelerated and successfully squeezed through.

But at this moment, the Cavaliers' defensive strategy changed suddenly, and the striker directly shrank to the basket, leaving Jones and Miller empty.

Wade broke through and encountered many sieges. He didn't have a suitable mobile phone opportunity, so he chose to throw his hands to Jones on the outside.

Jones gets a completely open shot.

He catches and releases.

This is his first shot of the game.

"boom!"

The shot was obviously wide, and Yao Ming received the defensive rebound.

There was a commotion at the scene. Jones didn't grasp such a good opportunity!

The Cavaliers played a defensive counterattack. Paul received the ball in the midfield and attacked the frontcourt.

After Carter dunked, he roared excitedly at the audience twice.

The entire morale of the Cavaliers rose sharply.

"Hold on! Hold on!" Spoelstra shouted at the Heat from the sidelines.

Chalmers dribbled to the frontcourt, and it was still Wade's singles with the ball.

The Cavaliers still shrink the basket.

Wade this time to Mike Miller.

Miller catches the ball and makes a shot.

This is also his first shot of the game.

His shot arc is significantly more positive than Jones's ball before.

"boom!"

However, the strength was a little stronger, and it hit the back edge of the basket and popped out high.

Yao Ming received another defensive rebound.

The Cavaliers had already started a fast break on the fourth line. Yao Ming threw a hand to Paul. Paul turned around and swayed Chalmers, dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and scored a layup.

As soon as the second half came back, the Cavaliers played a wave of 4-0 and directly overtook the score.

The on-site commentator seemed a little depressed.

Neither Jones nor Miller took advantage of the two open opportunities.

The Heat's frontcourt offense, the Cavaliers still shrink their defense in the face of Wade's breakthrough.

This time Wade chose to go hard by himself, but the Cavaliers' inside defense was too dense, and his throw was almost directly blocked by Yao Ming.

"boom!"

The ball evaded the defense, but the angle of the ball was too wide, hitting the right edge of the basket and bouncing high.

Parsons squeezes past Jones and jumps up for the defensive rebound.

The Heat used a small lineup and basically announced that they would give up rushing the frontcourt.

And giving up the frontcourt means that they have a high probability of accepting the Cavaliers' defensive counterattack, the same as the previous two rounds.

Paul once again sped past Chalmers, and Miller was struggling to catch up from the backcourt. Paul flicked the ball and passed the ball to Parsons who followed.

Parsons made an easy layup with the ball and low hand.

Spoelstra cursed angrily, stretched out his hand and called a timeout.

In this wave of 6-0, the momentum on the court has completely turned to the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers left the field, and the players on the Cavaliers' bench went up and clapped and shouted excitedly with their teammates.

It was really cool to play this round.

At this time, Casey looked at Tang Tian with a trace of admiration besides respect.

Tang Tian's strategy was actually told to him before.

According to his description, it is a certain book on military strategy in China, which is called luring the enemy to go deep.

Let Wade perform superbly in the first half, and let other players follow suit and return.

In the second half, the defense suddenly shrank to limit Wade's scoring.

Miller and Jones are just ordinary role players. They cannot be like sharp shooters like Ray Allen and Reggie Miller. It takes several shots to find the target.

Now after running for most of the game, you suddenly want them to shoot wildly, they can't just throw the ball in.

If you can throw in like this, you won't be an ordinary role player.

After all, not everyone is Novak, not to mention that the Cavaliers still grabbed them when they attacked to consume their energy.

It was a strategy, over tactics, but it worked.

Back from the timeout, Spoelstra maintained his previous starting lineup.

His tactical ability is not bad, but his on-the-spot response is relatively poor.

The tactics of both sides have not changed. This timeout seems to be just to curb the Cavaliers' offensive momentum.

With Wade's breakthrough, the Cavaliers continued to shrink and did not give Wade a chance.

Wade chose to split the ball to Miller.

Miller's open three-pointer still didn't make it.

The Cavaliers took the rebound and continued to fight back. Paul's point assisted Carter's three-pointer and the Cavaliers had already led by 6 points.

There was an uncontrollable commotion at the scene, Wade misfired, and the shooters couldn't make a shot. They didn't know what happened all of a sudden!
