The Heat ushered in the second round of the play-offs, hosting the Bulls, and Butler was sidelined due to injury. In the first quarter of the game, the Bulls took the lead in getting into the state, opening with an 11-6 run, and then the Heat began to blast out a 19-0 attack wave to take a double-digit lead, and at the end of the first quarter, the Heat led the Bulls 34-17. In the second quarter, the Heat fell into a scoring drought, the Bulls did not take advantage of the opportunity, only DeRozan was online, and at halftime, the Heat led the Bulls 47-37.
The Heat continued to exert their strength, and the play of Herro and Martin helped the Heat continue to extend their lead, and the Heat played a 12-0 climax at the end of the game, and the Heat ended the third quarter with a 22-point lead. In the final quarter of the game, the Heat played steadily, the Bulls still couldn't open the offense, and the game completely lost suspense, and finally the Heat defeated the Bulls 112-91 to advance to the playoffs as the eighth in the East.
Heat player stats: Herro 24 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists, Jaime Harks Jr. 21 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, Bam Adebayo 13 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, Love 16 points and 7 rebounds, Highsmith 9 points.
Bulls player stats: DeRozan 22 points and 4 assists, Vucevic 16 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists, Coby White 13 points and 4 assists, Dosunmu 10 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, and Javonte Green 12 points.
Nine facts that have to be admitted:
1, Butler was absent, Herro stood up, he shot 8 of 17, 4 of 9 three-pointers, got 24 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists quasi-triple-double data, plus or minus +32, Herro's performance today is really fine, he played very reasonably, found a balance between offense and organization, redeemed himself today, and saved the Heat, Butler can't play, and the Black Eight relies on Herro.
2. Jaime Hakes Jr. also played well, shooting 8 of 16 and getting 21 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Butler fell, the Heat had another Butler, it's hard to imagine that this is the 18th pick rookie, playing really hard, born to be suitable for big scenes, a rookie carrying the team forward, this season's rookie is stable.
3. Adebayo continued to slump, with 13 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. Adebayo is on the defensive line, but he still lacks the desire to attack, he doesn't have any independent offensive ability, Butler is not there, Adebayo must stand up, can't count on others, and hopes that the playoffs will be tougher.
4, Lefu is a real giant, only played 12 minutes to get 16 points and 7 rebounds, Lefu still has a lot of oil in the tank, you can help the team on the court, really a good player who is conscientious, the hero of the Heat win this game, the ball quotient is too high, passing, three-point everything, the third quarter of the strategy and opening up the space is too important, come up to open up the difference, continue to work hard, go to Porzingis to teach lessons.
5, Spo is the real core of the Heat, the tactics are too perfect, the MVP of this game, the Heat is not Butler, but Spo, it is really the basic plate of the Heat, just this defense, the Heat deserve to win, unlimited joint defense, and the defensive strategy is too good. Spo is the best coach in the league today, if not one of them, and the Heat were the first team to build a team with a head coach at its core.
6. DeRozan tried his best, shooting 8 of 16 and scoring 22 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists. The entire Bulls team will have DeRozan one who can play today, DeRozan averages 40 minutes per game, without him the Bulls are a fish belly team, a lonely hero, I really hope DeRozan can win a championship and go to a team that can win the championship next season.
7. Kobe White is no longer magical, only 5 of 16 shots, 2 of 8 three-point shots, and 13 points and 4 assists. This game is completely lost under the defense of the Heat, the last game was too good, this one was taken care of, the high-end game is still not good, Kobe Bryant this White, today is too top, the ball has not come out in his hands, and the iron is hit.
8. Vucevic was decent, scoring 16 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists. He played very aggressively today, and it was the best Bulls played except for DeRozan, but in the face of a tough team like the Heat, Vucevic seemed too soft, and the defense was not good for the old problem.
9. The Heat lacks Butler, but the team's integrity is better, especially the defensive strategy is well executed, such a Heat is really something that no team wants to meet, the Heat will advance to the playoffs as the eighth in the East, and they will challenge the Celtics who are the first in the East. The Celtics are strong this season, and the Heat have folded the core Butler, and it may be more difficult for the Heat to complete the Black Eight this year, but the Heat will never be slaughtered, and the Green Army will never advance easily.
