Following the last bloody abuse of the Bucks, today's Nets have also been sacrificed by the Heat...
The recent Nets have had a bad time, even very unhappy.
Adu is turning the tide every game, Harden has been tragically weakened by epic, and it is not easy to win against the up-and-coming star like the Hornets, not to mention the Heat of the lineup upgrade today.
In the face of the small steel cannon's full-court defense, Harden shot 0 of 3 in the first quarter, brushed zero in the scoring column, but in the second quarter began to gradually pick up, in 7 minutes of 4 shots 3, a single quarter to get 11 points, but this quarter is only Harden's highest moment in the whole game.
In the second half, Harden only made 5 shots and scored 3 points, and Harden's report card was fixed at 14 points, 7 boards and 7 assists, only 4 of 12 shots, and only 3 of 8 three-pointers after the once unique skill.
In addition to the few assists sent out are still barely OK, in fact, Harden's overall state has not fully recovered.
Including after the confrontation, the movement deformation led to unsteady shooting.
In addition to the loss of skill packs, Harden's on-field movement speed is also slowing down!
A data listed by the US media shows that in the ranking of the slowest average speed of players to be on the field this season, Harden ranks the slowest in the league with 3.63 mph (about 5.81 km/h), the second is the emperor Embiid and Deng's former teammate Gordon, 3.67 mph; the fourth is james the upcoming forty years old, 3.69 mph.
In other words, the second brother who is far away in Los Angeles has begun to go on the road, why are you getting more and more biased around the big brother when you are the third brother?
However, the slower movement speed should also be related to his previous leg injury, and he also admitted the impact of the injury:
"I've been lucky not to have too many injuries in my entire career, until last season, when [dealing with injuries] was time-consuming and labor-intensive. I'm slowly getting back on track and will definitely continue to work hard. ”
During the time when Deng ge was looking for a state, the team could only pin its hopes on Adu once again.
Du Xiaoshuai played 37 minutes and shot 9 of 18, including 2 of 4 three-pointers and 5 of 6 free throws, scoring 25 points, 11 boards, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
Especially in the fourth quarter, Adu came to death again, scoring 5 points on 3 shots and 2 in 6 minutes, but after the start of this season, death came every day, and he was stunned that he could not take away the game.
Not counting today's game, this season's regular season Addu averaged 34 minutes per game, has dropped 31 points, 9.8 boards, 5.8 assists 1 steal 0.8 blocks, this is all the data of the regular season MVP, what do you want him.
If you really use metaphysics to explain it, it can only be said that the masculinity of the Heat team is too heavy, and the whole team is one word - hard!
Who is hard? Adebayor hard, Butler hard, small steel cannon hard, Tucker hard, Diamond hard, Strus hard, just don't call the Miami Heat, call it the Miami Tough Guys!
How hard is the Heat? Kan Qiujun to analyze from another angle, let's not look at the above, specifically select the team's goalscorer performance to analyze:
Dunro shot 2-of-7 (all three-pointers) and scored 6 points, 5 boards and 1 assist; Hiro made 5 of 17 shots, 1 of 6 three-pointers, 14 points, 8 boards and 2 assists, and the duo made 7 of 24 in the game.
But the Heat relied on defense and tactical system to limit the Nets' scoring to more than 100 points, and the team finally won 106-93!
Many people say that the current NBA only focuses on offense and ignores defense, but they don't know that the current Heat team is suffocating the opponent with a very oppressive defense.
The Heat are averaging 41.7 defensive rebounds per game this season, the league's first, and averaging 23.3 fouls per game. Both of these stats show that the Heat are keen to play physically, and the card positions in the penalty area are very active.
Today's game to speak, the Heat snatched 62 rebounds, including 17 frontcourt rebounds; on the other hand, the Nets, after Zhao Si's injury, the interior line was even more empty, and the team only grabbed 42 rebounds and only 4 frontcourt boards.
After the defensive upgrade, the offensive end completely released Butler after Lowry's arrival, making him more of a three-positioner than a swingman; Tucker gave the team an extra ambush point.
This season, the Heat's entire team has been much smoother on the offensive end than before, and there will no longer be the embarrassing situation of only defending and not attacking in the Finals.
Today, the Heat, with a balanced offense and defense, have become the same as the Grizzlies in the black and white Bears era, and they are the masters that no one wants to meet in the playoffs.
The Nets temporarily ranked 12th in the East after losing the game.
From a personal point of view, it is definitely hoped that the Nets can enter the playoffs, after all, Adu is the strongest number three at the moment, and he is the first person in the league.
However, the current Nets team is obviously not what people expect, and it is difficult to summarize four words.
