You see, what did Su Feng say after G2?

That facing this Warriors team, one couldn't afford to be careless in the slightest.

Because compared to the opponents they'd faced in the past, this Warriors team possessed a higher offensive ceiling. So, if the Heat failed to exert sufficient pressure at any point during the game, they, with their "17" good cards, could be instantly defeated.

On the 13th, in Oakland, the Finals G3 between the Heat and Warriors shifted to Oakland.

After G2, the now 32-year-old Nash became the subject of widespread sympathy online.

Because with the Heat leading 2-0, based on Su Feng's past career patterns, many fans believed that this Finals had already lost its suspense.

In the 98/99 season, 99/90 season, 02/03 season, and 04/05 season, Su Feng led his team into the Finals four times, and each time he swept his opponents in the final series.

Before G3, Barkley, as the "Heat's number one fan," even boldly stated that this year's Finals would end in Oakland.

As a result, right from the start of G3, in the first quarter alone, the Warriors used nine three-pointers to deliver a stern warning to the defending champion Heat.

At Oracle Arena, Nash continued his good form from Miami.

Unlike most stars in this league, whose regular-season stats tend to be better than their playoff stats...

Nash, who only knows how to pass during the regular season, not only delivered his career-best single-game performance in the playoffs, but his career average playoff score was also higher than his career regular-season average score.

In Su Feng's previous life, when Nash was at his peak, the Spurs, by constantly fouling to disrupt the Suns' offensive rhythm and using dirty tricks at crucial moments to mess with the Suns' mentality, still couldn't guarantee they could limit the Suns' score to under a hundred every game...

Which was enough to demonstrate how outrageous the offensive ceiling of a team led by Nash could be.

But then again...

Given Su Feng's prestige today...

Let's not even talk about the relationship between Nash and him.

Even if Nash were a stranger, Su Feng would never win a championship in such an ugly way.

Because, come on, a six-time NBA...

Instead, he chooses to effectively reduce the opponent's passing opportunities and intercept their movement on the court through close marking and entanglement.

On TNT, after observing the Heat players' positioning on the court, Barkley bluntly said, "This is the defense that the Bulls used to excel at!"

Unlike the regular season, because in the playoffs, referees are now allowed to use hand-checking rules...

Therefore, what Su Feng truly wants to do tonight is to bring both teams in tonight's game back to the 90s together.

Because in that version of the NBA...

He will be invincible in Oracle Arena.

On the court, the Warriors' first attack saw Bell's three-pointer bounce off the rim after he ran out of position.

Because his flesh had nearly been scraped off by Payton during his run, Bell's shooting rhythm was clearly affected.

In the restricted area, Haslem secured the rebound for the Heat.

After observing the Warriors' retreat, Su Feng also signaled Payton to slow down his dribbling.

The Heat settled into their half-court offense, with Su Feng, Haslem, and Butler forming a triangle at the top of the arc.

Unfortunately, with Payton bringing Nash in front of Butler, Butler's mid-range shot unfortunately missed the basket.

Stoudemire grabbed the defensive rebound for the Warriors.

However, on the court, just as Stoudemire was about to hand the ball to Nash to launch a fast break, Su Feng almost completely covered Nash.

And when Stoudemire wanted to pass the ball to someone else, he was surprised to find that...

Every Warriors player on the court was entangled with a Heat player.

Helpless, Stoudemire had no choice but to dribble the ball across the half-court himself.

However, due to a lack of experience, Stoudemire chose to stop after crossing the half-court.

And now...

The Warriors' previously smooth offense suddenly stagnated.

On the sidelines, Spoelstra couldn't help but think, "Su is truly amazing. After every game, he can make the best arrangements based on the opponent's adjustments."

In basketball, you can't know what tactics will be most effective against your opponent before the game starts.

So, in Spoelstra's opinion, the most important thing for a team's head coach is not to be able to predict the future.

But to be able to react and control the opponent based on their lineup.

On the court, in the first quarter, under the Heat's high-pressure defense, the Warriors only managed 19 shots.

In an NBA game, such a number of shots is undoubtedly a failure for a team that excels at running and gunning.

Because if you can't get more shots through a fast pace, then even if you have a shooting percentage of over 50% every game, your final score won't be high.

And on the Heat's side...

Because every Heat player on the court was playing defense with all their might, in the first quarter, apart from Su Feng, the others combined for only 3 of 13 shots.

But...

At the end of the first quarter, the Heat took a 23-18 lead.

Because Su Feng, who was 5 of 9 in the first quarter, scored 14 points for the Heat, including free throws.

No one in the current league knows better than Su Feng how to fight a tough battle.

In the second quarter, before preparing to enter the court, Su Feng specifically reminded O'Neal, "Shaq, even if you lose your position later, you have to hold back Amare for me.

As long as we don't let them play a smooth offense, we will win tonight's game!"

Hearing this, O'Neal smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, Su, as long as we can win the championship, I'm willing to be a blue-collar worker!"

Too bad.

Because after watching the first two games of this year's Finals, Kobe flew back to Los Angeles to begin his rigorous training plan...

So, Kobe didn't get to see this scene.

Otherwise...

The ugly, score-obsessed face of O'Neal right now...

Would definitely have driven Kobe to death.

At Oracle Arena, in the second quarter, the Warriors still couldn't break through the Heat's heavy encirclement.

This had nothing to do with Nash's poor organization.

It was because the Heat were defending Nash's passing points tonight.

Just like in Su Feng's original timeline, the Celtics and Lakers, despite having many good offensive players, played seven tough games against each other.

Because the NBA under Stern's leadership allows such high-intensity, high-contact defense...

So even Nash can only choose to ignore passing and attack himself at this moment.

In Su Feng's previous life, one of the most significant characteristics of the peak Bulls was that the teams that played against them generally didn't have very high assist numbers.

In the 95/96 season, in the playoffs, the Bulls managed to control their opponents' assist numbers to under 17 per game.

And Su Feng remembered that in the 96/97 season, the Bulls also managed to control their opponents' assist numbers to under 17 in the playoffs.

It wasn't until the 97/98 season, as the Bulls' dominance on the court declined, that their opponents broke through the Bulls' layers of defense in the playoffs.

On the court, in the second quarter, although Nash and Stoudemire managed to execute several pick-and-roll plays when O'Neal was on the court.

But just like Su Feng had instructed before...

Stoudemire's pick-and-roll dives were all disrupted by O'Neal.

And Stoudemire's inferiority to Nowitzki in mid-range shooting was also clearly evident at this moment.

That is, while both were players who made a living from mid-range shots, Stoudemire's mid-range shooting lacked the ability to break through defenses like Su Feng and Little Dirk.

Basketball is not just about being able to shoot mid-range shots; it's about being able to break through defenses.

Otherwise, Garnett would have ruled this era with his retreat-and-shoot style.

Whether in his previous life or this one, Stoudemire's turnaround fadeaway was not as consistent as Nowitzki's.

Therefore, when the "Suns/Warriors" needed someone to stand up and score at crucial moments, you would see Nash's thin figure shuttling through the jungle of muscles.

Look...

Does truly high-quality defense really need to rely on foot-planting and malicious fouls?

In Su Feng's eyes, those so-called arguments that the decline in NBA defensive intensity is represented by the absence of foot-planting and malicious fouls are nothing short of brain-dead.

Because when Rodman was in his right mind, didn't the Bulls prove long ago that they didn't need these malicious fouls, and they could still defend their opponents to death on the court?

Oracle, at the end of the first half, the Warriors fans tonight felt that the style of this G4 game was different from before.

Because of the 39-34 halftime score between the two teams tonight...

The Heat and Warriors could achieve that in just one quarter in previous games.

After halftime, the game continued.

In the third quarter, Nelson, who didn't believe that the Heat could maintain this defensive intensity until the end, kept reminding the Warriors players on the court to handle the ball more patiently.

And on the Heat's side...

Spoelstra, who firmly believed that the Heat could defend like this until the end tonight, simply threw away that damn tactical board.

In the locker room, before the Heat players were ready to take the court, the young Coach Spo grabbed Su Feng and said affectionately, "Su, I'll leave this half of the game to you!"

Seeing this, Pat Riley also revealed a gratified smile at this moment.

Because on this night...

Spoelstra undoubtedly officially entered the ranks of a generation of famous coaches.

On the court, fadeaway, pull-up, pull-up, fadeaway.

There are no high-end and sophisticated tactics.

Nor are there any subtle combinations that fans can't understand.

In the third quarter, Oracle Arena...

Su Feng was like a machine, constantly repeating the above actions.

And on the court...

As this game continued to deepen...

On the Warriors' bench, at this moment, Nelson found that he couldn't say a word, even though he had a lot to say.

Because just like most teams faced the Bulls in the 90s...

At this moment, Oracle Arena...

Only despair!

Final quarter.

As the clock approached zero...

On the scoreboard, 88 to 72.

The Heat successfully conquered Oakland!
