The Heat are lucky and meet a good opponent and weak Nets.

The Suns in the West were also very lucky to meet the Clippers, which was a pie from the sky.

On May 8, the second round of the NBA playoffs officially started, and the Heat took the lead in playing.

As the challenger, the Nets, which have an outside trident.

After two seasons of running-in, the Nets' outside trident has become increasingly tacit.

Kidd controls the offensive rhythm, Carter's top-notch singles, and Jeffers makes up for the offensive firepower.

In addition to the three stars, substitutes such as Kostic are also growing, and the Nets are actually pretty good.

Of course, this is good to refer to compared to other teams, not the Heat.

Facing the defending champion, the Nets' strength is somewhat insufficient, and the chance of winning is not great.

"Miami, move forward!"

At this moment, the American Airlines Center Arena has already transformed into a sea of ​​flames and the atmosphere is high.

Fans have always been like this. The stronger the team is, the more they can burst out with strong passion.

As the Heat embark on the road to defending the title, they naturally need to support them.

Every time I cheer, there is a feeling of a tsunami coming, with a huge momentum.

In this situation, even the Nets players who have experienced many battles are a little shocked at this time.

What is home advantage? This is home advantage!

When the opponent's attention is affected by the fans on the scene, the home team can more or less gain some benefits.

As the whistle sounded, the game officially began.

The lineups of both sides have not changed much, and they are still the same starting lineup, which is very stable.

Also a white big center, Brad Miller rarely has an advantage in jumping ball against Jason Collison.

The Heat took the lead in attacking, and the offensive rhythm was still familiar, and Brad Miller responded at a high position.

But this time, at the beginning of the game, Stan Van Gundy had made special arrangements.

The main target is Chen Mo, but Chen Mo reached a low position as soon as possible and wanted to attack Carter.

Carter's defense is not bad, but it is obviously impossible to be able to defend Chen Mo.

Just as Chen Mo got the ball, Kostic's assisted defense had already followed.

In the fight with the Heat, in addition to fearing the Heat's strong overall offensive strength, Chen Mo's threat is also unnegligible.

It would be a dream to say that if Chen Mo could not be restricted and he tried to win the game, it would be a dream.

Lawrence Frank, as the head coach of the Nets, naturally, what he thinks is not just about being able to live.

He knew that the Heat were strong and it was difficult to win, but they had to dare to think about it.

Look, when formulating tactics, he focused on Chen Mo.

Facing Chen Mo, it is obviously unrealistic to be able to defend against one another, and double-teaming is particularly important.

Costic was given a heavy responsibility by Coach Frank.

Look, Chen Mo just got the ball at the low post, and Kostic immediately chose to double-team.

This season, in addition to the accurate three-pointer, his low singles are also wary.

Facing the Heat, especially in defense, there are not many choices for each team.

Either guard against Chen Mo or guard against others.

Both choices are actually based on the Heat's performance is not good, it depends on whether the choice is right.

Today, the Nets' defensive strategy is very simple and firm, that is, to defend Chen Mo to the death.

Chen Mo and the Heat have experienced such double-teams countless times.

Seeing that Costic's double-team was about to arrive, he passed the ball with a very light hit and the basketball came to Haslem.

At this time, Kostic's flexibility and movement speed were revealed, and he quickly returned to defense.

Haslem had no chance to take action easily, so he chose to pass it back to Brad Miller, who was at the high position.

As the fifth offensive point of the team's starting lineup, Haslem's contribution is more about defense, not attack.

Brad Miller held the ball, Caron Butler was already moving, handing over the cooperation, and completing the pick-and-roll.

Caron Butler broke through the inside with the ball, but at this time, Chen Mo was already retreating to the outside.

Chen Mo had just made an action, which immediately attracted the Nets' defense and also opened up space for Caron Butler.

Caron Butler scored the ball with a layup and scored easily.

2:0

Even though Chen Mo only touched the ball once, the Heat could still easily score.

This is how powerful the Heat is.

Although Chen Mo is the core of the team and the entire team is built around him, this does not mean that others are not good.

This is the strength a championship team should have.

Looking back, the Nets attacked and the Heat's defense was naturally raised instantly.

Especially the trio on the outside, they were even more focused on guarding, and Carter had a hard time receiving the ball.

Facing Chen Mo head-on, Carter made a fuss after making a fake move, but Chen Mo stopped him very well.

Such offensive methods are too rough, and it would be too easy to get points like this.

In fact, in the past two years, what Chen Mo was most afraid of was such a simple and rough way of playing basketball.

But now is not the past.

The offense was blocked, and Carter did not blindly make a shot, but transferred the ball out again.

Kidd held the ball and glanced around, but there was no good chance, so he chose the pick-and-roll.

Faced with the Nets' offense, the Heat have already prepared.

After the pick-and-roll, Costic quickly got off the ball, and Blake chose to bypass the pick-and-roll man and then defend Kidd.

Who made Kidd's attack fail?

If it were Nash, under his three-point threat, Blake would naturally not dare to do so.

Kidd made a move to shoot, but Blake hurriedly came up, but found that it was not a pitch, but a pass.

Jason Collins made a simple back-run and a fleeting opportunity was found by Kidd.

Almost an open backhand layup, Jason Collins scored 2 points for the Nets.

2:2

The Heat's offense is also unwilling to be outdone, especially in the face of the Nets' weak inside line, which is constantly impacting.

Brad Miller rarely made a tough move, and tried Jason Collins to score easily.

There is also Caron Butler, who is also constantly rushing to the inside and has committed two fouls.

There is also Haslem, who had no advantage in rebounding due to his height, and he actually exploded.

Not only did he protect his defensive rebounds, he even grabbed offensive rebounds in a row.

18:10

The game was 6 minutes and 48 seconds later, and when the official timeout was suspended, the Nets were already 8 points behind.

When Carter saw that it was not possible, he immediately strengthened his singles score after returning to the game.

Carter is at his peak now, with Kidd passing and Jeffers helping to attract defense, which is the easiest time for him to play.

A violent dunk after a breakthrough, a technical backward jump shot.

Carter's continuous score seemed to stabilize the situation for the Nets and even saw hope of chasing points.

However, at this time, Chen Mo also turned on the scoring mode.

A front-facing breakthrough followed by a backward jump shot, and a picturesque jump shot easily scored two points.
Chapter completed!
