Before Su Bei made an air cut, he gave Matt Carroll a physical confrontation and threw him 1 meter away, but he was still blocked.
Don’t ask who is guarding him, ask his teammates.
Su Bei is far away from becoming a master of eating cakes, but the only difference is that he is a master of making cakes.
Leaving Paul is equivalent to David West leaving Paul.
Kenyon Martin left Kidd.
It's no use running out of space but no one sees it.
Su Bei became a walk-on. As the coach replaced Wang Zhizhi and put Hayes in front of Sean May, it became more difficult for Su Bei to catch the ball.
Gerald Fitch is very active in offense. His first choice is not to pass the ball, but to play by himself. After all, Paul's "fate" is still too impressive.
Everyone wants to have a shot, 183 in person, if we don’t do it now, when will we wait?
And, the Kentucky League, regrouped, and Gerald Fitch started throwing passes to his college teammates again.
After Azubuike was replaced, it seemed that his shooting was no longer a problem.
At this time, Su Bei's weaknesses were strengthened, and the offense had no chance to perform. On defense, it looked very embarrassed.
"Chris Paul continued to play pick-and-roll with Matt Carroll, passing the ball hand-to-hand. Matt Carroll received the ball, withstood Su Bei's block, and shot a three-point jumper..."
Beep——!
Swish——!
When the foul whistle sounded, the three-pointer was still hit, and Matt Carroll, who fell to the floor, clenched his fists.
“3+1!!
Matt Carroll completed a 4-point show in front of Su Bei. Of course, Chris Paul's screens and passes also played a very key role..."
Swish——!
In addition to being accurate from three-point range, Matt Carroll makes 91% of his free throws and almost never misses one.
In the future, in the NBA, he will be able to perform 5 "4-point plays" in a season, almost tying Mitch Richmond's 6 "4-point plays" in the 1996 and 1997 seasons.
Mitch Richmond is a superstar and has a lot of ball rights. Matt Carroll is just a role player who cannot even start a game due to defensive issues. It can be seen that this person does have something offensive.
Coach Si asked Hayes to defend Sean May, but it had no effect at all.
After all, Sean May, as the MOP in 2005, is now in the most confident state. He can do everything in the NCAA. Hayes has not played in the NBA. He has just come out of the NCAA. He has great strength and excellent defensive skills. He is as good as Ben. Not afraid.
One-on-one, Sean May can still beat Hayes.
Chris Paul's height of 183cm is not without effect. After the pick-and-roll, the mismatch between small and large is even more obvious.
Even if Hayes is only 1.98 meters, there is still a gap of 15 centimeters. Coupled with Hayes' strength, it will be difficult to block the speed of Paul.
If flanked, Paul's passing vision will also teach the Heat how to behave.
“The talent of both teams is obvious to the naked eye!
In the last game against the Jazz, Deron Williams showed his ability to defeat the Heat alone.
The reason why the Heat won that game was not because Deron Williams was not talented, but because the Jazz's tactical system and teammates were holding Deron Williams back.
And Chris Paul is playing more freely, and his teammates, especially Sean May and Matt Carroll, are a plus.
It’s not unfair for the Heat to be beaten..."
Buzz—!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light turns on.
The score was 99 to 81. The Heat were defeated by the Bobcats by 18 points. With a record of 4 wins and 2 losses, the Heat missed the summer league finals.
"Congratulations Chris, your performance is still outstanding, 23 points, 13 assists, 8 rebounds and 4 steals... you are 2 rebounds away from getting a triple-double. Please continue to work hard in the finals. I have to go back to Miami and can't go to the scene to cheer you... "
"Yes, I know.
Su, don't be discouraged. You got 11 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists in this game. This is not your best performance. If you are given the ball, your statistics will definitely double.
Of course, no matter how it turns over, the winning side will still be my Bobcats.
I will help you win the summer league championship..."
"Thank you very much. Otherwise, with the strength of the Heat, it would be difficult to make a difference in the summer league in the past few years. They can only compete for the NBA championship in the playoffs. Please continue to do so..."
"No, the Bobcats can't compete for the championship. That's because I'm not here yet. I'm here..."
"Can you touch the floor of the Eastern Conference Finals?"
"..."
After the game, Su Bei and Chris Paul still showed the same "friendship" as in the NCAA and had a very lively chat. For those who didn't know, they thought those two were on the same team.
After this campaign, the Heat's temporarily formed reserve force was officially disbanded, and the Heat's summer league journey ended.
…
In the summer of 2005, the NBA free transfer market opened.
The Heat have become the busiest and most rewarding team.
First, complete the renewal of Shark O'Neal's contract with a 5-year, 100 million contract.
O'Neal, born in 1972, is 33 years old and still worth an annual salary of 20 million.
At the same time, Haslem, the future soul of the Heat, also accepted a five-year, 34 million contract and stayed with the Heat.
A super big contract, a top-level mid-level contract, the Heat can easily offer it simply because Wade's rookie contract is so good. The new season is only the third year of the contract, and there are still two years left.
Later, after being criticized by O'Neal for being too soft in his style of play and being recruited by Jerry West, Eddie Jones nodded and was willing to go to the Grizzlies, helping the Heat acquire Jason Williams and James Posey.
To be honest, Eddie Jones is simply the luckiest trade chip for a championship.
When he was with the Lakers, he was exchanged for Glenn Rice, which strengthened the Lakers' outside three-pointers, and now he has strengthened the Heat's point guard and forward positions.
The Heat's starting lineup has been strengthened, and the next step is to strengthen the second lineup.
It just happened that Antoine Walker's big contract ended. For the sake of the championship, Fat Tou Tuo, who was born in 1976 and was only 29 years old, was at his final peak and could average 20 points and 9 rebounds per game, accepted a four-year, 32 million contract. A top-level middle-class contract, in the words of a madman, is not enough to support a family.
Immediately afterwards, Gary Payton came to invest with a veteran's basic salary of 2.32 million in a two-year contract. He had a good vision and knew that he would continue to hold on to O'Neal's thigh.
Coupled with the fact that the lineup already has tough guy Alonzo Mourning, the Heat's second lineup has basically been achieved.
You said there are only 8 people in rotation?
fine.
After all, Riley can use Wade to death. After all, he has a unique vision and picked it up from the draft. Wade has to be grateful and don't work desperately for him. It's okay to use it up. It's just a rookie. After the four-year contract is over, you can press for an extension.
Riley's reputation as the divine fortune teller was not earned for nothing. Every step he took was calculated.
Next, the Heat will have to make minor repairs.
Reinforcement must be based on the characteristics of the Heat's main championship opponents and the core players in their own lineup.
O'Neal's shooting is inaccurate, Wade's shooting range is not far, and their offensive system requires offensive space, so the reinforcement of three-point shooters is more important.
The Pacers were destroyed by the Palace of Auburn Hills incident. Regardless of this ball, the only opponent in the Eastern Conference is the Pistons with the top five.
Against the Pistons, whether it's for O'Neal or Wade, the perimeter must be shot...
It just so happens that the shooter position needs to be strengthened.
Riley's eyes are on the rookies in recent years.
Russell Butler is not Caron Butler. He is just a second-round pick in 2002. His style is a 3D player.
Unfortunately, after inspection in the 2004 and 2005 playoffs, the defense was judged to be above average, and the 3-point shooting was of the type that looked good but was not useful in critical moments, just like a low-end version of Eddie Jones... this It can be abandoned.
In Riley's view, any useless player can be given up, even Wade.
Next, he looked at Dorell White, the 19th pick in 2004, and Wayne Himien, the 29th pick in 2005.
One averaged 13 points per game, the other 11 points... He was not very satisfied with the data of both.
Soon, he was relieved.
After all, the reason for choosing the two of them is to win the lottery. If the Lakers win a surprise prize like Kobe's, the Heat can look forward to establishing a dynasty. Isn't it the most normal thing to say 'Thank you for your patronage'?
Then, when he saw Su Bei's personal data, his eyes lit up.
He averaged 19.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game, which was pretty good in the summer league. After all, Kobe averaged 30+ per game back then, and Wade also averaged 27+ per game back then.
The three-point shooting rate was 73%. Except for one game where he only missed 1 of 3, in other games, he hit at least 3 three-pointers in every game. This is what he values most.
A record of 4 wins and 2 losses cannot be achieved just for the sake of data, regardless of the outcome of the game.
"However, Su Bei only showed his strength in the draft report and did not bring many surprises. Just... sign a 1+1 rookie contract..."
The Arenas clause appeared in 2005, but few teams will actually use this clause in the future.
Only a lousy team like the Warriors would have such weird things happen.
The Heat are a championship contending team and it is difficult for rookies to have a chance to perform.
Who would throw away a "poison contract" for a role player?
It may not be the Heat that gets bombarded by that time, but the team that gave the contract.
…
