Butler was still a little uncomfortable when he returned to the game, and his first two offenses failed.
Well, Booker is in better condition. I don’t know if it’s because he devoted himself to the court after breaking up with Jenna. According to rumors, Booker and Jenner broke up because he said "I love you Durant" while drunk.
Booker scored two three-pointers in the opening game, directly leading the team to a 6-0 lead over the Heat.
The most anxious person is not the Heat, but Paul on the sidelines.
The team's victory is not terrible, but whoever is missing is embarrassed.
"This is because I don't have Jenna in my heart, so I am a natural god when I start." Xu Jingyu said carelessly.
"Booker's three-point shooting percentage so far this season has reached 41%, which has always been relatively high in the league." Huo Nan said with the data.
"It doesn't work, but this guy can't fight a tough battle. He just scores points casually in the regular season, but if you look at it in the playoffs, it will definitely make you lose your temper." Xu Jingyu said with the attitude of her boss who always looked down upon.
"If you want to put it this way, Booker's three-point shooting percentage per game in the playoffs can be as high as 52%." Huonan continued, taking out Booker's playoff data from last season.
"Then...then maybe...it would be better to perform better..." Xu Jingyu was speechless.
The barrage started to pop up.
"It's useless to have Butler come back. If we do this, we might as well let Yuhang be the starter."
"Isn't this just coming back? You need to adapt. The regular season doesn't really matter. Anyway, the Heat are stable in the playoffs."
"Yuhang will also be a little tired in the final stage of the game and his condition will decline. He still needs two people to switch to connect the team."
"Don't talk about it for now. Butler is starting to play. Why don't you just watch the game?"
Back on the playing field.
Butler quickly regained his form and began to rush inside, but it was Adebayor who broke the game for the Heat first. Adebayor directly blocked Ayton's inside throw, and then quickly passed it to Butler who rushed to the frontcourt. In his hands, Butler dunked directly with both hands.
"Butler!! Butler!! Butler!!" American Airlines Center finally shouted Jimmy's name.
"Snapped!!!"
Butler excitedly high-fived Adebayo.
The score on the court became 6:2, and the Suns temporarily took the lead.
"Soft! Soft! So close! Just hit it! You can dunk it in! You have to throw it!" Xu Jingyu said angrily while making a dunk gesture.
"I do agree that Ayton has not lived up to his value as the No. 1 pick. This may be the result of Ayton, who has never experienced the catfish effect. He has been a starter since he joined the team and does not need to compete for playing time at all." Director Huo Nan agreed. said.
"He's just a flower that doesn't grow big in the greenhouse! Just send him to the Development League and let him play for a few years! He's just too full!" Xu Jingyu said angrily.
The barrage also started to scroll crazily
"Adebayor is only 2.06 meters tall, while Ayton is 2.13 meters tall and is very close to Chamberlain in physical fitness. When the two faced off, Adebayor actually had the advantage..."
"Get out of the sun!"
"Soft! Do you have mysophobia? Can you defend and attack seriously?"
"Another one who is gifted except for his brain..."
"It's really difficult for the Suns. Continuous injuries and downtime have taken a toll on Booker's offensive talent..."
Back on the playing field.
Although, Butler regained his form.
But Booker was in better shape, continuously hitting shots from the mid-range and outside.
Fortunately, Adebayor suppressed Ayton in the paint, which prevented the Heat from being widened by the Suns.
With two minutes left in the first quarter, the Suns led the Heat 23:15.
Yuhang was sent on the field to replace Butler, who made 1 of 4 shots in the first quarter.
Yuhang and Butler high-fived each other and then went on the court.
The task assigned by Coach Spoelstra to Aerospace is to defend Bridges and help defend Booker.
Booker was taking free throws when Yuhang came on the court, and Yuhang walked outside the three-point line.
"Are you the guy who competed with Butler for the starting spot? It doesn't matter what you look at?" Payne walked to Yuhang and mocked.
"It's just because you're blind that you can't see my advantages, scumbag." Yuhang said as he looked at Booker who was taking the free throw.
"Uh-huh!"
Booker made a free throw.
"Who are you calling a scumbag?" Payne said angrily.
"I'm talking about you being a scumbag who doesn't know how to play and only knows how to talk. My grandma can play better than you." Yuhang continued.
Both of them stopped talking. After all, fighting on the court is a very stupid thing, which is recognized by NBA players.
"Beep!! Power speed, hit rate increased by 20%!"
Yuhang also wanted to say that he would be waived by the Suns, but this would all happen later. Jade Emperor felt that it was better not to say it as it would affect the future.
"Shua!!"
Booker's second ball was thrown, and Yuhang instantly rushed inside.
It's a pity that the basketball went hollow into the net.
The Suns lead the Heat by 10 points 25:15.
Heat offense.
Hiero dribbled the ball across half court.
Payne immediately came up to defend Hiero.
Hiero distributed the ball to Yuhang outside the right three-point line.
"I've been looking forward to playing against you!" Bridges immediately came up to defend Yuhang.
Bridges is 1.98 meters tall, which is about the same height as Yuhang.
Yuhang looked at Bridges and wanted to speed up and change direction to pass him.
But a big hand almost broke the ball in Yuhang's hand.
Yuhang dribbled the ball from behind in time to avoid Bridges' hand.
"Sure enough, you are just like Chuanzhong, difficult to deal with." Bridges smiled evilly and raised his extremely long arm to look at Yuhang.
Bridges is 1.98 meters tall but has an astonishing arm length of 2.18 meters. Yuhang is 1.96 meters tall and has a wingspan of only 2.05 meters. The physical talent is still inferior to Bridges.
But Yuhang also has experience playing against this kind of player, just like playing against the long-armed Jaylen Williams of the Thunder.
"boom!!!"
Yuhang dribbled the ball vigorously in an instant, and used his body to squeeze Bridges away and attack inside.
Yuhang originally thought, you will definitely come out to defend me from the inside.
But it was as if Ayton didn't see Yuhang rushing in. He was still on the bottom line and didn't make a save.
"boom!!!"
If Ayton doesn't save, Yuhang just dunks with both hands!
"Yu!! Yu!! Yu!!"
"What are you doing? Ayton? You can influence him by raising your arm!" Bridges looked at Ayton in confusion and said.
"I thought he was going to pass Adebayor." Ayton said with a leisurely look, as if Yuhang was not the Suns' inside line but dunked into his own basket.
"Brother, be serious." Booker patted Ayton on the back.
Coach Frank on the sidelines also had no choice but to worry about Ayton. After all, the Suns were relatively empty inside, so he could only push Ayton.
