On June 1, the NBA Finals officially started.

This year's finals can definitely be regarded as highly-watched, and it is not difficult to see from the ratings.

Before this year's finals started, online game reservations reached a very terrifying number.

About 40 minutes before the start of this game, the online viewership successfully broke the record, breaking the record-breaking finals high in NBA history.

In fact, it is no wonder that fans are so enthusiastic about the finals. Both the Heat and the Thunder can be called star-studded.

Especially when the two teams get together to fight, this is a totally visual feast.

This game started at the Thunder home court. Before the game started, the atmosphere on the Heat was obviously a bit heavy.

Because even if the three giants join forces, Spoel does not have enough confidence to defeat the Thunder, and has even placed himself in the position of the weak.

In this year's regular season, the Thunder played two games with the Heat, with both sides winning one and tied the score 1:1.

However, the difference between these two games is very huge. The Thunder wins was a big victory, and the Heat won a narrow victory.

If the two teams really need to be compared together, then the Thunder's strength is definitely above the Heat, and it even has the possibility of crushing the Heat.

After the game began, the Thunder quickly played their own rhythm at home.

Although this Heat has a balanced offense and defense and is a unique league in defense, this Heat has a fatal flaw, that is, its lack of ability in the interior.

This also led to the Thunder frequently attacking the basket through running positions during the game, especially the empty cuts between Anthony and Durant, which caught the Heat off guard.

After O'Neal on the bench came on, he directly cast a shadow on the Heat's inside.

Although O'Neal is old now, he has long lost the dominance he had at his peak at the basket.

But when facing the silly and stupid personal defense of Joel Anthony, O'Neal was simply at ease on the court, which was quite a bit like dreaming of returning to the peak.

Since the Big Three already occupy most of the salary space, the Heat can only sign some basic salary players in terms of strengthening.

At present, except for Chris Bosh, the rest of the Heat are completely embarrassing.

"Big Z" Ilgoskas, who was originally entrusted with important tasks by fans, has shrunk this season's average data to 5 points and 4 rebounds.

In addition, Danpier had two points and three rebounds, Joel Anthony had two points and three rebounds, and Uncle Huo Er's two points and two rebounds were simply unsightly.

The only inside player who performed well and averaged eight points and eight rebounds per game, Haslem only played 13 games and was reimbursed for the season.

I have to say that this really killed the Heat.

Until the end of the half, with the team's outstanding inside advantage, the Thunder had already led the Heat by 14 points at home.

When he came back in the second half, even though Spoo was very clear about the team's inside disadvantage, Spoo, as the head coach, had no choice.

Because in just 24 minutes of the first half, Spobey had made no less than five adjustments to the center position.

Whether it was Ilgoskas, Danpier, Joel Anthony, Juwan Howard, Spoo changed everything, but the final result was the same, that was, he was targeted by the Thunder.

"Du~Du~Du"

With the whistle at the end of the game, the Thunder defeated the Heat without any suspense at home, and won their first victory in the finals without any blood.

After the game, as the Heat lost to the Thunder in their big score in Game 1, this undoubtedly surprised everyone.

Even from a practical point of view, the chances of the Heat defeating the Thunder will definitely not exceed 40%, but it is still unbelievable to see the Thunder beat the Heat easily.

You know, in this year's playoffs, the Thunder only lost one game, that is, the Western Conference semi-finals lost to the Lakers.

As for the first round of the playoffs and the Western Conference Finals, they all swept 4:0, so when the Heat lost without resistance, this inevitably made a large number of people feel heartbroken.

In the whole game, Yao Ming and O'Neal performed well, with Yao Ming making 7 of 11 shots and contributing 15 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists.

While O'Neal only made a substitute for 19 minutes, he even handed over a 21-point and 7 rebounds, setting the Heat's penalty area into a sieve.

In addition, another inside player, Ibaka, performed well.

The 16-point, 6 rebounds and 3 blocks in the game not only made the best game since entering the playoffs, but also joined forces with Yao Ming and O'Neal to completely dominate the penalty area of ​​this game.

…………………

"The Heat are a very strong team, but their flaws are also obvious. So once the Heat is targeted, the Thunder will have mastered the initiative on the field."

"And the team's outside feel is very hot in this game, which can give more space for inside players and also help the team lay a foundation for winning."

"As for whether to defend the title this year, I think it's too early to think about these issues now, because I have never underestimated this Heat." Yang Fan said modestly at the new press conference after the game.

No matter what, this Heat has a very large number of fans, so even if the Thunder can win, there is no need to look down on the Heat.

What's more, it is definitely not a good thing to be too rampant when the alliance doesn't want to see the Thunder dominate.

…………………

In the second game of the finals, Spoel chose to let Chris Bosh reach the starting center position and directly abandoned the slow-moving Big Z and others.

Since the Thunder's offense on the court is 360 degrees without blind spots, once the Heat send heavy center Ilgoskas and Danpier, the Thunder's wave after wave of space is really helpless.

So Spoo could only take the initiative to make changes and choose to push Chris Bosh to the fifth position and take out a formation with excellent shooting ability. It seemed that he was planning to fight against the Thunder to attack.

The Heat's idea was very clear throughout the game. While trying to block the Thunder's outside attack, they were more likely to fight against the Thunder from the offensive end.

Although the Heat's lineup is a mess, the personal abilities of the Big Three are all top in the league.

When the Heat had basically no choice but to fight the Thunder, Spo could only let the Big Three be swung one by one.

Because this is not only a solution that cannot be solved, but also the Heat's last chance of winning.

As the saying goes, the tactical basis of all is just for scoring.
