The Miami Heat’s unique tricks against Antetokounmpo? It is to build a great wall of flesh and blood to keep Brother Antetokounmpo out of the restricted area, it seems that this strategy has worked.
It’s hard for Antetokounmpo to get the ball every time, whether it’s in the penalty area or switching counterattacks, Heat star Jimmy Butler said when asked about the Heat’s defensive strategy.
Antetokounmpo scored an average of 17.5 points in the penalty area to lead the league before the game, in the first game he only scored 6 points in the penalty area and committed 6 turnovers. Antetokounmpo said it is obvious that they (Heat) are building a wall around me, which also allows me to be more active and make better judgments in the upcoming games.
In fact, this strategy has not been a secret for a long time. Every opponent of the Bucks tries to implement the same defensive strategy, but why can the Heat execute it so successfully? One of the reasons is that they have a lot of meat that can be consumed with Antetokounmpo. Jae Crowder (6-6, 235) is responsible for the main defensive work, but All-Star center Adebayo (6-9, 255) is also one of the most successful players in the league to defend Antetokounmpo. Don’t forget about Jiba (6-7, 230) and Iguodala (6-6, 215) will occasionally appear for a cameo.
Another point of the Heat’s success is that they have limited Antetokounmpo’s power to convert counterattacks. The Bucks are the most capable counter-attack team in the league. Basically no one can stop Antetokounmpo from running, but there is always the possibility of switching to the fast break, and you may find that Heat players who returned to defense quickly built a defense against the free throw line. Additionally, the Heat also deliberately slowed down their attack pace and stopped the Bucks from running.
