For the next few minutes, the confrontation on the field continued.

The scores of the two teams also continued to rise, and soon it reached 18 to 17.

During this period, the head coaches of both teams did not make any changes to their formations, and both held their elbows and watched from the sidelines.

The slightly different thing is that.

Gentry doesn't want to make a change.

In this game, it seems that the rhythm is becoming more and more in favor of the Suns. It is only a matter of time that the score difference widens. He does not have to make changes on the defensive end, and they can also win.

Heat coach Spoelstra, on the other hand, has no way to change the lineup because he has too few cards.

At present, this style of play is already the best way he can think of for the Heat.

Last summer, the newly appointed Heat coach Spoelstra became the youngest head coach in NBA history. He is currently only 39 years old... In other words, before Spoelstra became the Heat coach

When he became a coach, he was only 38 years old!

This is the age when many head coaches in the league have just begun to work towards the position of head coach.

For example, when Gentry was 38 years old, he was not even an assistant coach.

At the same time, he is also the first Filipino head coach in NBA history!

Of course, the main reason why he can set NBA records is that, in addition to having two skills, he also has strong qualifications. He has been a member of the Heat since 1995 and became a member of the Heat in 1999.

The team's assistant coach and scout, and then became the scout director, and then he became Parker Riley's disciple...

It wasn't until this year that he officially became the head coach of the Heat.

From the fact that the Heat's performance in the past two seasons has not been good, but his coaching position has been stable, it can be seen that Parker Riley has indeed given him enough trust and patience.

Stan Van Gundy cried and fainted in the toilet because of this... We are all disciples, why should we be so patient with him?

The head coaches on both sides did not call a timeout, nor did they shout on the court to change formations. They all watched like this.

Even the first timeout on both sides of this game was the official "automatic timeout" at 2 minutes and 34 seconds of the second quarter.

The looks of the head coaches on both sides predict that in this game, both sides will play freely.

However, as Gentry expected, the Suns' offensive firepower is indeed much stronger than that of the Heat, and Steve Nash is a "forever god" level rhythm controller in fast-paced attacks.

When the game entered the third quarter, even though Gentry still did not adjust, the Suns gradually began to take a clear lead, while the Heat gradually began to show a trend of collapse.

Fortunately, Dwyane Wade broke out and hit consecutive goals to help the team stabilize the point difference at around 7 points.

It's a pity that this wave of outbreaks only delayed the Heat's collapse, but did not reverse this trend.

Finally, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Suns launched a 13-3 scoring climax to determine the victory. In the end, the score between the two teams was fixed at 113-100. The Suns beat the Heat by 13 points.

.

"Man, you really don't look like a newbie, you're really good!"

Dwyane Wade hugged Lin after the game.

Lin Ri was on full fire in this game and scored 28 points, 16 rebounds, 3 blocks and 4 assists!

The combined statistics of the Heat's entire interior group in this game could equal the sum of his statistics.

It can be said that he single-handedly turned the Heat's inside group upside down.

It's strange that Wade doesn't feel emotional.

Even if he had anticipated this scene before playing this game, there was still a big difference between what he had anticipated and whether Lin Ri had actually done it now.

"This is also for you, you are indeed one of the best defenders in this league!"

Lin Ri looked at Wade with a look that said, "This guy is really great."

In this game, Wade scored 35 points, including 18 points in a single quarter in the third quarter. His performance was truly incredible. If it weren't for his presence, the Suns would have decided the game in the third quarter tonight.

victory, but he relied on his own firepower to determine the outcome of the game until the fourth quarter...

That is to say, these guys in the Heat's current lineup are really useless. If two stronger teammates come to help Wade, it will be very difficult for the Suns to win tonight's game!

Dwyane Wade... is called "Jordan who is 6cm shorter" for no reason.

…

"Okay, guys, listen to me, it will be a tough battle next. I believe everyone had a great time in the last game, so in this game, I hope everyone can follow my tactics and go step by step!"

In the first game after Christmas, the Suns got off to a good start. With the Mavericks and Thunder winning before Christmas, the Suns unknowingly won another three consecutive victories. However, they had no time to be happy.

Next they will face a strong enemy-the Boston Celtics!

And they are still away from home.

It was also to face such an opponent that Gentry chose to let all players "play freely" in the last game against the Heat.

Especially Lin Ri, he made the latter have a great time on the offensive end.

The purpose is naturally to better arrange tasks in this game!

The Celtics are very strong this season. Although their core lineup is one year older, they acquired "Roaring King" Wallace in the off-season, and then added "Little Potato" Nate Robinson.

Got to the team.

This instantly gave their substitute rotation lineup a very good level of strength.

This is a very scary thing!

After all, for the Celtics' "Big Three", their weakest aspect currently is their physical fitness.

But now that they have enough strength on the bench to give them enough time to rest, will their problems in this area still be a problem?

The answer is obvious.

And now!

The Celtics have a good substitute rotation...

This team will easily remind many experts of the Rockets team that "never underestimate the heart of a championship".

More importantly, in terms of style, the Celtics restrained the Suns.

Their No. 1 position has a "poker face" who can be ranked in the top five in the league in terms of controlling rhythm. In the paint, they have both a meat shield and a player with very good defensive capabilities. It can be said that they are the two strongest points of the Suns.

, the Celtics have people and ways to deal with it.

If he wants to win this game, Gentry must of course arrange it well.

In his plan, the most critical point is Lin Ri!

In this game with the Celtics, Gentry wanted Lin Ri to focus all his energy on the defensive end. The Celtics had too many scoring points, and the Suns' defense had to rely on Lin Ri's

Only by making up the defense can there be no "leakage" everywhere.

It's not that Gentry is too optimistic about the Suns' defense.

Instead, he thought about Steve Nash's defense, and then thought about Richardson's running position against Ray Allen. These two points alone gave him enough reasons to put Lin Ri on the defensive end.

.

Lin Ri listened to Gentry's arrangement and nodded in agreement.

He will not be unwilling to do dirty work.

Especially in such an important game. As long as he can win, he can do anything!

…

This game has also become a focus of discussion.

However, the biggest focus is not who the final winner of this game will be.

The biggest focus of this game is the encounter between Lin Ri and Kevin Garnett.

When talking about one of the benchmarks for power forwards in the league, "Wolf King" Garnett is definitely a name that cannot be avoided. And what kind of performance Lin can perform when facing such a benchmark has naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Attention!

"I believe that the sun will be the better one. If the time went back five years, I would definitely say the same!"

In the TNT studio before the game, "Big Mouth" Barkley said something as usual that Kenny Smith didn't know how to answer.

How dare you say that!

He glanced at Buckley.

I can’t stop slandering him: What the hell, 5 years ago, Kevin Garnett was the regular season MVP!

The Sun is awesome. After entering the league, his performance was astonishing. But it’s not like Kevin Garnett couldn’t defeat him five years ago, right?

This guy is really crazy!

Kenny Smith shook his head slightly.

Barkley didn't notice his expression at all, and continued: "The Sun has already dunked on many inside players in the league, including Tim Duncan. Oh, no, that's not a dunk, that's a riding dunk.

Dunk! I’m looking forward to the fact that the sun can do it on top of Kevin Garnett’s head in this game!”

He has already begun to wait for Lin to dunk on Kevin Garnett later.
To be continued...
