The glory of the center

Chapter 182 at a disadvantage

Anthony's retreat lost the opportunity to interfere with James. James dribbled the ball forward and threw away Anthony, but he did not get a chance to attack directly. He had stopped another Suns player in front of him.

"Do you think you can hit the inside line arbitrarily if Qian Ning goes down? Stop dreaming!" Zhao Yue stared at James who rushed in a hurry.

James, who rushed forward, also saw Zhao Yue and pushed the ball to his left hand. James changed his direction and wanted to rush directly past Zhao Yue.

Naturally, Zhao Yue would not let James rush past him so easily and take a step towards the back of the side. Zhao Yue directly pasted James.

After all, James rushed forward with impact. It was not easy for Zhao Yue to completely stop the impact of the other party. He was afraid of fouls, so he had to stay close to James, and Zhao Yue moved under the basket.

With Zhao Yue's defense, James's speed was also obviously affected. With the inertia of forward rushing, he still rushed into the three-second zone. However, the resistance brought by Zhao Yue at this time also almost completely melted his momentum. Realizing that it was difficult to force forward again, James suddenly squeezed Zhao Yue's body and then jumped along the rebound from Zhao Yue.

James's impact and the last-minute squeeze did bring a little pressure to Zhao Yue, but it was not enough to force him to defend. While James jumped up, Zhao Yue also jumped up in the air.

The referee did not whistle, and James only chose to attack. After jumping, James raised the ball over his head and saw that Zhao Yue had also jumped. James was busy pulling the ball to the back of his head.

The body paused in the air for a moment and felt that the body was about to fall down before James threw the ball towards the basket.

Stagnation is not James's strength. At least Zhao Yue did not lose to him at all. James's pause in the air did not affect Zhao Yue as much as he thought. Seeing the ball flying out of James, Zhao Yue immediately waved his hand and swept over.

"Squeak!" The ball flew to the top of Zhao Yue's head, and Zhao Yue's palm also waved at this time and swept the bottom of the ball.

"Good hat! Zhao Yue blocked James's shot! You have to deal with James with Zhao Yue!" The commentator of the imperial court shouted excitedly.

At this time, on the sidelines, Spolstra's eyebrows frowned gently, which was the last thing he wanted to see, but Spolstra had to admit that Zhao Yue's existence had a great limiting effect on James.

James's breakthrough impact is extremely strong. It is very difficult for ordinary insiders to jump interference after being hit by James. Even the interference that can be brought after jumping is very limited, but Zhao Yue is an exception. After being hit by James, Zhao Yue can not only jump and interfere, but also often send out the block. The pressure on James inside is also real.

Turning around, Zhao Yue grabbed the ball, and the sun began to launch a counterattack. Battier's defense is indeed excellent, but some gaps can't be filled. After replacing Joel Anthony, the height of the Heat's inside line has been lowered, which is what Zhao Yue thinks can be used.

Entering the half, Zhao Yue moved directly to the basket and watched Zhao Yue enter the penalty line and Bo Shi stick to it up, but Zhao Yue did not stop because of Bo Shi's tightness and pushed forward. Zhao Yue squeezed Bo Shi to continue to move under the basket.

Bosh kept up with Zhao Yue's continuous efforts and tried to push Zhao Yue out, but the gap in power was irreparable. Bosh had tried his best, but he still failed to prevent Zhao Yue from entering the three-second zone.

After entering the three-second zone, Zhao Yue's heel had stepped on the line of the reasonable collision area. Seeing that Zhao Yue was in such a deep position, Nash naturally did not hesitate and passed the ball to Zhao Yue at the first time.

Zhao Yue was too close to the basket, which undoubtedly put great pressure on the Heat. Almost at the same time as Zhao Yue received the ball, James had come to Zhao Yue's front bag. After changing to Batil, Spolstra pushed James to the power forward to have a position against Yi Jianlian.

Caught in the attack of the two giants of the Heat, Zhao Yue did not pass the ball out. He did not want to give up the opportunity to attack so close to the basket.

The body suppressed Bosh with strength, and the body drove his left foot out of the right side. Zhao Yue forcibly squeezed the space from the middle of Bosh and James to turn around and turned into a basket.

Continued to suppress Bosh, Zhao Yue immediately jumped up and grabbed the ball and put it on the rebound. Behind Zhao Yue, James also jumped up for the first time and waved to the top of Zhao Yue's head.

"Fuck, it's a little close!" His body kept probing, but James had no choice but to find that his palm was still a little far from the basketball in Zhao Yue's hand. He wanted to explore further, but Zhao Yue's strong back against him was also powerless.

"Wo!" Although Zhao Yue could not see everything behind him with his own eyes, he could feel it, calmly shot and hit the board.

After the Heat relaunched the attack, they found that the Sun' defensive tactics had changed. The Suns began to use joint defense. Zhao Yue sat on the inside line, while the remaining Sun players were relatively mobile. James dribbled the ball and tried to make a strong breakthrough, but he was hit by the Sun just by rushing into the free throw line.

In desperation, James could only choose to divide the ball outside the three-point line. Chalmers received the ball and shot. The Suns' defensive rotation was excellent, and Charles Murs' shot was disturbed and bounced out of the basket.

Control the backcourt rebounds and the Suns launch a position attack. As in the previous round, after coming to the half, he began to constantly seek opportunities to approach the basket.

Bosh was behind Zhao Yue, and Batil also came to Zhao Yue's side. In order to limit Zhao Yue's position from being too close to the basket, the Heat actually began to attack Zhao Yue when he was playing with the ball.

Nash sent the ball to Anthony, Battier rushed back to Anthony, and Anthony pushed the ball to Zhao Yue at this time.

Step back and Bosh opened the space. Zhao Yue took over the basketball and turned to face the basket. In front of him, Bosh was also busy forcing him to take another step to defend again.

Zhao Yue keenly seized this opportunity. When Bosh moved forward, Zhao Yue smashed the ball on the floor and rushed to the right, wanting to kill under the basket from the bottom line.

Bosh also reacted at this moment. At the same time, his face changed greatly, he quickly turned around hoping that he could stick to Zhao Yue. Zhao Yue's first step was amazingly fast. Even if Bosh moved at the same time as Zhao Yue, he couldn't keep up, not to mention that he still turned around at this time.

Accelerate! After rushing out one step, Zhao Yue was about to get rid of Bosh, and the speed improved again. Zhao Yue took the opportunity to throw Bosh away and went straight to the basket.

Bosh chased closely behind him. In front, James, who was facing Yi Jianlian, also moved forward to stop him, but James could not stop him directly in front of Zhao Yue. When he appeared under the right basket, Zhao Yue had also rushed to his side.

Holding the ball in his hand, Zhao Yue suddenly took a step forward and rushed under the basket. The soles of his feet stepped on the floor and flew directly from James.

The body flew forward and rotated 180 degrees. While drilling out of the left basket, Zhao Yue just finished turning around. He grabbed the ball with his right hand and pulled it to the top of his head and dunked into the basket.

"Bum!" Dunk!

Spolstra got Channing Fry off the scene as he wished, but the plot did not follow his imagination. Zhao Yue's task on the defensive end did become heavier, but he did well and did not affect his performance on the offensive end.

At the defensive end, the Suns use more joint defense. Such defensive tactics are very weak for defense outside the three-point line, but the Suns rely on excellent defensive rotation to achieve good defensive results. Occasionally, one or two Heat players can rush into the inside line, and Zhao Yue greets them.

There is no doubt about Zhao Yue's defensive ability in the inside line. Although the Suns' defensive strength is excellent, Zhao Yue is obviously the strongest point in the team's defense. His excellent physical fitness and reaction speed make it easier for him to get fouls than other players. Sometimes the Suns' players even think that if they don't have Fry Wouldn't it be better to finish the field? If Zhao Yue is not a long-term guard of the inside line, they may get a better chance to attack me.

Successfully completed the task on the defensive end, and Zhao Yue, who came to the offensive end, also performed very well. Both Battier and James's defensive ability were excellent, but the pressure brought to Zhao Yue was not enough to stop Zhao Yue's attack.

Seizing the weakness of the Heat's inner defense, Zhao Yue kept rushing to the basket. While he got some points, Zhao Yue also created some opportunities for his teammates.

25:24, the performance of the two teams in the first quarter was comparable, and the Suns temporarily fell behind by 1 point. Spolstra was not satisfied with such a score and calculated one of the Suns' main strikers and inside defensive pillars, but only exchanged an advantage of 1 point.

After the beginning of the second quarter, Zhao Yue sat off the court to rest, and Fry, who had rested most of the quarter, returned to the court.

After Fry came on the court, there was still a gap between the Sun's defense on the inside line and Zhao Yue when he was on the court. On the one hand, Zhao Yue's defensive strength was indeed higher than Fry, and on the other hand, Fry, who had two fouls on his back, was also a little unconceive.

Whatever comes. After more than four minutes in the second quarter, Zhao Yue had just been replaced. Fry had his third foul and had to be forced to rest off the court again.

Fry's end made the situation on the court the same as the second quarter, but the Sun's defense effect was not as good as the first quarter. The Heat in the second quarter found the feeling of shooting outside the three-point line. Although the Suns' rotation defense is fast, it will still be given to the Heat players. Some shooting spaces, and the Heat players seized these opportunities.

At the end of the second quarter, the rest of the players' protection of the inside line was no longer in place as before, and Zhao Yue also under more defensive pressure.

49:46, at the end of the first half of the game, the difference between the two teams widened to 3 points. This section of Spolstra's strategic intention is truly reflected. Zhao Yue has invested more energy on the defensive end, resulting in a decline in efficiency on the offensive side.
