Bill Walton said in the commentary seat: "The Heat are weaker than last season, except for O'Neal. Last season they had Odom, Eddie Jones and Caron Butler, but only one O'Neal added, which made everything change. A player like Damon Jones who only shoots three points can score about 10 points in every game around him. From this aspect, you can see his restraint in the inside. It can be said that no one in the league now has such restraint in the inside. O'Neal is a superstar who can compete with the legendary center. He is Chamberlain of this era."
Scott said: "Indeed, O'Neal has turned the Heat from a player struggling on the edge of the playoffs to a favorite to win the championship. On the other hand, the Lakers, who have lost him, now it seems that they are just teams working hard in the playoffs. Is there such a big gap between Kobe and O'Neal?"
Bill Walton shook his head and said, "A inside player can provide the team with help in scoring, rebounding, inside blocking and other aspects, and the restraining power of inside players can create more open shooting opportunities for the outside. The outside players are different. Their attacks are farther from the basket, and they are not as good as inside players in terms of shooting percentage and lethality. Even a top outside defender like Payton can only lock one person, and the inside helps in defense are different. For example, this
You can see in games that Pierce has more attacks on the outside, and has not entered the inside breakout layup in half, or played back near the basket. This is O'Neal's role, which cannot be seen from the data. So now the teams in the league tend to choose inside players, Brand, Martin, Kwame Brown, Yao Ming, and Howard this year. If James and Anthony were not too outstanding, Milicic might have become the No. 1 pick."
Walton and Scott were talking in the commentary seat, and Rivers on the sidelines were also setting up tactics: "Al, go to guard O'Neal, Dako, you cover the defense behind you, let Haslem go, even if he is allowed to attack in one game, his score will not exceed 15 points. Your task is to completely lock O'Neal. The Heat don't have good point guards. This is their flaw. Wade's game experience is not enough. Tony, you have to try to anger him as much as possible and make him barely shoot. If Tony is broken, Paul, come and rotate to repair the defense, Davis's fixed-point three-point jump shot
The shooting percentage is not particularly high. He likes shooting with the ball, not a pure shooter. Gary, after you come on the court, you must keep a close eye on Damon Jones, and you cannot give him an opportunity to shoot at an open space. Try to find opportunities to steal him when he serves and dribbles through half the court, or force him to pass the ball to Wade. Tony, you must always pay attention. You have to cut off the connection between Jones and Wade. Once he is forced into a desperate situation by Gary, you can only pass it to Wade. In addition, after O'Neal holds the ball, outside players pay attention to interference with him and cannot let him make adjustments so easily..."
The Celtics replaced Eddie Jones with Pierce, and also replaced Deront West with his family Payton. West had just played for a while, but it made him feel a little frustrated. Looking at the Hilton seat West pointed at West and made a cool gesture. Unfortunately, he was on the bench, and even the camera was not interested in him.
Returning back to the court, Payton controlled the ball and organized the offense. He used his body to force Damon Jones to attack, and began to squeeze Jones with his butt from outside the three-point line. When Jones was exercising his strength, Payton, the old ball player, turned around and passed Jones agilely. When Haslem came out to make up for defense, he made a fake move to pass the ball to Jefferson. He paused a little. Haslem reached out to steal. At this moment, Payton had already gone around and made a throw shot through Milicic.
As soon as the Heat serves, Payton was already sticking to Damon Jones. The Heat have always been a flaw in this regard, otherwise they would not have found two long-standing veterans, Gary Payton and "White Chocolate" Jason Williams.
As expected, Damon Jones was unable to continue dribbling under Payton's defense pressure, so he quickly threw the ball to Wade, but he didn't even see if there was anyone around Wade. Just when the ball was less than five centimeters away from Wade's hand, one hand reached out. It was Tony Allen. He broke the ball and rushed directly to the basket. A moving dunk ended the attack.
After the Celtics changed the lineup, they had achieved results in one offense and one defense. Instantly, the score was filled with 4 points. Van Gundy on the sidelines also roared: "Ricky, when you serve, you run, don't stand there like a wood!" This time, he served directly to Wade. Wade was transported to the half-time and was hit and handed the ball to Ricky Davis, which avoided the embarrassing scene of 8 seconds but halftime. Jefferson was pressing tightly behind O'Neal. Jefferson was 2.08 meters tall but also weighed 125 kilograms. He was an absolute muscle in his height. Although it was difficult to beat O'Neal, O'Neal was not able to do anything casually.
Damon Jones passed the ball to O'Neal. The height of the ball was a bit low, which made O'Neal not very comfortable. Just when O'Neal wanted to adjust, Pierce came over and took a symbolic hand. O'Neal hurriedly grabbed the ball firmly in his palm, but was afraid that Pierce would continue to interfere. O'Neal leaned against Jefferson and stood up to shoot with a hook. He also exerted a lot of force in the battle with Jefferson, and the movement rate was much slower. When he hooked, Milicic had already arrived at the back and jumped to the point where he took the shot. A big hat slapped the ball out. The slap was slapped on the ball, but the loud sound was like a loud slap to O'Neal.
"The Celtics' defensive tactics have worked. They defended O'Neal, and Milicic gave O'Neal a big hat. Is this a favor for Jefferson? Milicic's bounce height and air stagnation ability were clearly demonstrated just now, and he did have certain experience in blocking the cover. He could have blocked 0.5 times in his average 5 minutes of playing time last season." Bill Walton was very happy to see the coaches of the juniors on the court. He hadn't seen such an exciting inside duel in a long time.
Milicic said to O'Neal: "Your movements are as stupid as your face!"
O'Neal looked at Milicic with a pale face and said, "You will pay the price for your ignorance!"
