On November 2, Beijing time, the Miami Heat, a strong team in the NBA, faced the Brooklyn Nets at home. In the first half, the Heat once led by 16 points with the excellent performance of the "Big Three" James, Wade and Butler.
However, in the second half, the Nets adopted a targeted defensive strategy to limit the scoring of the Big Three, while the bench players also began to play an important role, hitting consecutive three-pointers, disrupting the Heat's defensive deployment. In the fourth quarter, the Nets accelerated the pace of offense, using fast break to keep close to the score gap, and the Heat couldn't get back to defense, and the offense was also affected.
In the final quarter, the Heat scored only 22 points, and even captain James could not play at his usual level. In the end, the Heat were reversed by the Nets 105-109, which was already their fourth loss of the season. The Heat had a disappointing regular season, losing the first three rounds.
In this game, the Heat's big three James, Wade and Butler contributed a total of 76 points, but the other teammates played poorly, and only three of them finished in double figures. The Nets played at full strength, strengthened their defense against the Heat's Big Three, successfully limited their scoring, and bench players hit three-pointers to help the team overtake the score at critical moments.
The Nets' aggressive defense also put a lot of pressure on the Heat, directly impacting their offense. The Heat should take lessons learned and improve their regular season to prepare for the playoffs.
