Chapter 151 It's Not My Fault That You Can't Beat James
The Heat's defensive flanking + rotation + conscious emptying are all used in combination. Sometimes Iguodala and Holiday will be empty if they are not in their sweet spots.The same goes for Turner and Thaddeus Young.
This strategy magnified the Sixers' perimeter shooting deficiencies.They actually lack shooting in the formation, and the best ones are all inside.In addition to the inside, the best outside shooting is the ice shooter Meeks who performed poorly in the playoffs.But Meeks is another colander on the defensive end...
Although the Heat's core shooting is average, but their role players can shoot! Holiday and Iguodala of the 76ers are low-profile versions of Wade and James.
The 76ers are still playing as a team, but they can't make shots when they export opportunities. This is a problem of ability.The playoffs are a game to magnify the personal abilities of the stars. James, who only played more than 30 minutes in the regular season, only played 40 minutes in the playoffs, making it more difficult for you to have enough time to chase points when he is resting.
Shou Ye's offense was blocked. After he had no chance to shoot from the outside, he could only use screens and second offense at the basket to play. His lack of low-post singles ability was magnified.
There is really no way.Shou Ye has been in the league for the past three seasons. The focus of training has always been off-ball blocking and fixed-point shooting. He rarely explored low-post offense and basically relied on old skills, so he often had to rely on his strong body and strength. Misplaced food, or a rush of noodles.
This is the position of a role player to specialize in training. When encountering the current situation, he needs to go to the low position to attack, which is definitely not possible.Shou Ye himself did not expect that the 76ers would have such a development path this season. They actually reached the Eastern Conference Finals and had to compete with the top three giants. The team still needed him to shoulder such a heavy offensive task.
Right now, Shou Ye doesn't have the ability to take on such a heavy responsibility. He can't beat James, and he can't break the opponent's fast-flanking and fast-rotating defensive system. He is also in trouble.
The game ended with the Heat's victory, and the big score in the series was rewritten to 1:1. The 76ers still have home court advantage, but judging from the process of the game, if they can't make timely adjustments, then this round The series is going in the direction of the Heat.
In this game, Shou Ye only scored 9 points, plus 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 5 fouls.This is his worst game since the playoffs. On the offensive end, he is completely locked up and can only rely on second offense and free throws. This is very different from his performance in the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals.
In an interview after the game, when the reporter asked him what was the reason for his abnormality in this game, Shou Ye said: "I didn't play well in this game, I need to go back and watch the video to see where I can improve in the next game. improved."
Anyone who has watched the game understands that the trend of this round of the series is far from what the score shows. The gap between the two teams is actually very obvious.The Heat are certainly not a perfect team. They have always had problems with their rebounds and inside rim protection, but after Shou Ye was restricted by James, the 76ers couldn't really hit their pain points. This is the most fatal.
In one game, Shou Ye changed from "God Shou" to "Trash Shou" online.Those winning fans can't tolerate the team losing, especially after such a victory in the last game, they have already made it a natural thing to sweep the Heat or the gentleman swept the Heat, but they didn't expect this game to lose so suffocatingly Bend.
In fact, this is not the first time Shou Ye has been called "garbage Shou" by fans.When the law of birthday leaves existed in the regular season, "God Shou" and "God Shou" kept calling, but when this law failed, it was immediately that Xiao Tiantian became Mrs. Niu, and "Garbage Shou" began to call non-stop.
In fact, it has always been this group of people. Regarding these, Shou Ye has long been mentally prepared and is used to it.
Those experts were very objective. They didn't criticize Shou Ye just because he broke his personal record and scored 35 points in the last game, but only scored in single digits this time.They analyzed the Heat's defensive strategy and concluded that Shou Ye actually created a lot of opportunities for the 76ers, but your outside shooting is unstable, so the opponent's defense is more resolute.Of course, Shou Ye's inability to beat James is also one of the problems.But Shouye can't beat James, isn't it normal?
How many people in this league can beat the current regular season MVP James?Are you underestimating James or overestimating Shou Ye?
If you win a game, you will praise him to the sky, thinking that he has surpassed Jordan, but if you lose a game, you will feel that he is nothing. This is really "praise".
After the 76ers finished this terrible game, they will return to Philadelphia to prepare for G3 and G4 of the series.They are not out, and winning a game away from home is already a mission accomplished.
After the game, Concubine Han and Beau Bois called Shou Ye one after another to comfort him, fearing that he might have a problem with his mentality.They have also seen the news on the Internet. The unsightly comments of those netizens made them worry that this would affect his mentality.
Shou Ye told them that he was in a good state of mind, and let them say what people on the Internet wanted to say. There are keyboard warriors everywhere, so let them figure out what they are doing.
After returning to Philadelphia, 76ers coach Doug Collins also talked to Shou Ye specifically.The content of the chat is actually not mysterious. The main thing is to hope that he can calm down. Losing a game does not mean that the series is over.
Shou Ye clearly told the coach that he is fine and that he is already preparing for the next game.
Collins is very satisfied with Shou Ye's self-regulation ability. He is surprised that this young man's mentality is too stable, and his mentality is more stable than those veterans who have been famous for many years.
On June 6, the Eastern Conference Finals G2 will be played at the Wachovia Center Arena in Philadelphia.
Tickets for this game at the Wachovia Center Arena were sold out early, and the 76ers haven't played in the Eastern Conference Finals for n years.The last time they played in the Eastern Conference finals dates back to the 2000-01 season.At that time, the leader of the team was Iverson, and the opponent was the Milwaukee Bucks with three musketeers.
Right now, the leader of this team is this year's All-Star substitute Iguodala.
There is still a gap in the star cards of the team. The big AI is the MVP, and the small AI is just an All-Star substitute.
It's just that this is already a thing of the past. This season's Philadelphia 76 is indeed the best performance in the "post-Iverson era", which gives fans hope.
In this game, Shou Ye will continue to start the game, and the 76ers will also change their formation in this game. They will remove Meeks and replace them with Turner.
Obviously, in terms of offensive space and defensive trade-offs, coach Doug Collins chose the latter.
