The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 477: : Want to kill the walkers

On the afternoon of May 19th, Pat Riley arrived in the Bankers Life Arena early. This time, he rushed to Indianapolis from Miami to watch the game, just to boost the morale of the players.

It was originally Pat Riley's pride to promote the formation of the Heat's Big Three. But when this pride has not turned into any substantial honor, Pat Riley is also anxious.

Unfortunately, Riley actually met a blonde Larry Bird in the Bankers’ Life Arena. Riley didn't want to talk to him too much about this famous "forcing king". But it was too late, and Larry Bird had walked towards Riley enthusiastically with open arms.

?? "I didn't expect you to come here and there to watch the game in person, Riley. Why don't you tell me in advance, I must reserve the best ViP box for you." Bird looked very polite, but Riley knew , This "force king" will never be polite with his opponent.

???????? "I won't bother you for this little thing, Bird. How are you and your team?" Riley also politely did not intend to talk with Bird more.

?? "Sorry, I don’t know much... Since Henson became the head coach of the Pacers, I have almost never had to worry about the players’ condition. How about you Riley? You are not still urging the team to train. Right?" Bird smiled, and sure enough, this guy started to pretend again.

These two guys got together as if two parents met at the school gate, and Bird said, "Even if I never care about my child, his studies are still great."

"It seems that you are fully prepared, Bird." ??? Obviously, this blond middle-aged man made Riley a little unbearable. He planned to get rid of Bird as soon as possible and then return to himself. Go to the private room and yell. ?

"We are ready at any time, Riley. After all, we have beaten you twice. I hope you have good luck this year." Byrd's smile is still very kind, but Riley's mouth has started to twitch.

"Okay, I won't bother you, Riley, I hope you enjoy watching the game." Byrd finished, let Pritchard take Riley to the box.

After walking away from Bird, the fists of the "God Fortune Man" have been clenched. The fire in his heart went out, he never wanted to put the Pacers to death so much.

I hope LeBron and Wade can completely defeat them in the Bankers Life Arena!

Four players were selected for the All-Defensive Team. This kind of thing is incredible even in the eyes of LeBron James, the first man in the league.

He knows very well that his opponent is getting stronger and stronger, and it is impossible to easily defeat the Pacers. If the Heat want to win this series, it will definitely be quite difficult.

"Is there any special feeling?" Watching the cheering fans in corn yellow T-shirts in the stands, Wade stood beside LeBron.

"Nothing special, I just want to win the game." LeBron smeared his hands full of magnesium powder. Although there is no appearance ceremony belonging to him in the Bankers Life Arena, it still became his pre-match habit.

"We have lost here for two years, LeBron."

"It won't be this year, I promise."

"They have four players selected to the All-Defensive Team. The guy Henson Joe is incredible."

"If we beat that group of guys, we will be even more incredible."

James finished speaking and patted Wade on the shoulder. At this time, in the luxurious box of the arena, Pat Riley had poured himself a half glass of red wine, standing in front of the French window of the box.

"Damn Bird, it actually pretended to be on my head." Riley gritted his teeth, and he knew there was nothing good to meet Bird.

"Don't worry, Dwyane and LeBron were in very good shape last round. I think this year, we really have a chance." Riley's assistant comforted.

"They can do it, and the Indianapolis people will pay for their arrogance."

All the Heat are eager for victory in this round of the series. Just like the Wizards in the previous round, this round of the series means not only entering the finals, but also dignity.

Being eliminated by the Pacers for three consecutive years, neither Heat nor Riley can bear such a thing.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the high-profile Eastern Conference finals began on time. LeBron James gathered all his teammates together before the start of the game and gave an exciting speech.

I have to say that LeBron is indeed an excellent leader. His speech cheered up the entire Heat. However, the basketball game is not only more powerful than anyone else. Henson on the court is in stark contrast with the excited players of the Heat. How excited the Heat players are, and how calm Henson is.

"It seems that Coach Henson is still full of confidence. Even in the last game, the Heat's Big Three had just scored 73 points together." On the commentary stage, Reggie Miller's attitude towards Henson was no surprise.

"Coach Henson said before the game that defense will be the key to the Pacers winning this series. I don’t know how credible Coach Henson’s words are. But I’m sure that the Pacers do have defense. The ability to kill the game. After all, in their formation, there are four players selected for the best defensive team." Next to Reggie Miller, Kenny Smith was still surprised by Henson's miracle.

After the game started, Spoelstra took the lead to come up with a small lineup. Bosh played the fifth position, Battier played the fourth position, James and Wade ranked second and third respectively, and Chalmers was the unbeatable starting point guard.

It can be seen that the Heat's inside line is still very weak. Although Pat Riley signed Greg Oden and other insiders last summer, they are still unusable.

Before the series began, Spoelstra knew that the Heat would suffer in the paint. Therefore, he did not intend to solve the Heat's inside problem at all. The Filipino coach only intends to use the offensive power of James and Wade to solve the problem.

Therefore, during the jump ball stage, the Pacers easily won the first strike. Henson's strategy is also very clear, since your inside defense is weak, then I will play you inside!

Therefore, with the first goal in the opening game, West singled out Battier. Although West's state has declined in recent years, Shane Shane is still very sure.

As soon as the game opened, West's goal made the "cornfields" on the stands sway with West's fist. But Henson didn't feel excited about this good start goal. He knows very well that the real horror of the Pacers has not yet been reflected.

The Heat made a baseline offense, and Chalmers didn't dare to entangle with Paul. Paul had already cast too much shadow on this mediocre small guard in the past two years.

Wade wanted to break through directly after receiving the pass from Chalmers, but George's extra-long arm forced Wade to stop. In the second position, Wade rarely encountered an opponent with such a wide defensive range.

So the "Flash" sent the ball to the back of James, the Heat's back end rate in the first two rounds of the series was very high. But this is not due to the inside line of the Heat, but to the back singles of James and Wade.

But this time, LeBron was surprised to find that he didn't take the slightest advantage while holding the ball behind his back!

For Leonard, the first two rounds were more like a warm-up after returning from injury. And now, Leonard can use the best state to deal with LeBron, the strongest opponent.

He used his long arms to constantly interfere with James' dribble, and then used his sturdy body to carry the impact of the league's first man. Leonard has fully matured, he is even stronger than the previous Leonard after gaining attribute bonuses!

James couldn't help it, so he turned around forcibly and wanted to go to the basket. Leonard had quick eyes and quick hands, and immediately took out the basketball when James turned around.

"Missed! Leonard's winding defense caused LeBron to make a mistake in the first round!"

At this time, Henson finally smiled. This level of defense is what he is eager to see in this round of the series.

Leonard assisted Paul George to complete the one-handed dunk in the fast break, 4-0, and the Heat fell into a passive position at the beginning.

Subsequently, Wade's breakthrough layup was missed by Paul George's interference. In the case where speed is no longer dominant, Paul's long arm has become an insurmountable barrier for Wade. The Heat lost two consecutive offensive rounds, and the Pacers' defensive skills have begun to show.

In the third attack, the Heat tried to get the ball in Bosh's hands. However, Horford's defense against Bosh is not slow at all. With the Pacers strictly abiding by one-on-one defense, Bosh can't get an open shot at all.

Sure enough, Horford sealed Bosh's shot to his fingertips. The "Dragon King" is not particularly powerful in interfering with COSCO.

The Heat's Big Three each shot once, but they all ended in failure. Spoelstra was still not worried, he knew that these three guys could not be defeated so easily. Even though the Pacers have now been beaten 6-0, the Filipino coach still believes that the Heat Big Three can turn the tide like the previous game.

But Henson doesn't think so. Perhaps in Pat Riley's view, the Heat and the Pacers' first two rounds are different.

But in Henson's view, the Heat and the previous two opponents are the same. As long as you grab the opponent's handle and lock the Big Three, the Heat have no chance of winning!

"Jimmy!" Henson beckoned, and called the young defender who looks like Jordan to his side. "Did you see the performance of your teammates? After the rotation time comes, I don't want to see Wade and anyone else against you. People score goals. Remember, don’t give them any chance."
