Chapter 432 The Strongest Janeway
Being behind 0 to 2 was a big blow to the Heat. They originally came for the championship, but they didn't expect to be beaten almost powerless at the opponent's home court.The opponent certainly has an advantage in their home court, but it's not that big, right?
Every Heat player is gearing up and hopes to teach the Blazers a good lesson after returning to their home court, especially the two cores of James and Wade.You must know that they have played their own great reputation in the playoffs and finals.Needless to say, Wade led the Heat to win the championship in 2006, averaging 34.7 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game. Among them, he scored 30+ in the last four games, and even reached 40+ in the last two games.
James did not give up much. Although the 2007 finals faced the old and spicy Spurs, he was a bit restrained, but in the battle of Tianwangshan in the Eastern Conference finals that year, he played one of the greatest individual performances in the history of the playoffs.Facing the five Pistons, James scored a game-high 48 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, dominated the final quarter and two overtime games, and arranged the team's 30 points in the last 29 minutes, almost by himself. The force defeated the Pistons.
Although this is a long time ago for them, after all, their strength is still there, and they are also at the peak of their careers. If the two of them regain the state of killing gods at the same time, the Blazers will definitely be unable to bear it. There is no point in leading 2-0.
The Heat are holding back their energy to prepare for a wave of big news, but the Blazers still don't pay much attention to it. In fact, this is also a common problem of most players.So when they came to Miami, they suffered a blow to the head, and the whole team was stunned.
The victim of the third game was undoubtedly Matthews, because Wade, who was in charge of his defense, turned on the superstar mode. Although he could not reach the level of the last two games of the 2006 Finals because of his strong teammates, if he wanted to blow up A Matthews is a breeze.
Breakthroughs after dribbling under the crotch, emergency stop jumpers, pull-up layups, flying dunks, and even the unreliable three-pointers are like divine help. This is Wade in this game.As the soul of the Miami team, when he showed a strong offensive, even James and Bosh were also willing to make wedding dresses for him.This means that the three of them have a relatively good personal relationship. If it is replaced by a few superstars who don't fight with each other, it will be fine if they don't hold you back.
It's not that McMillan hadn't thought about letting Ye Feng and Matthews switch defenses, but when he thought of switching defenses, Matthews would have to face James, who was more physically fit and tougher in his style of play, he didn't know what to do.A player like James is simply a nuclear bomb. He doesn’t need to launch to attract your defense. You dare not really let him go. If he is blown up due to negligence, there is no place to cry. .
Even if McMillan replaced Roy in order to reduce the pressure on Matthews, it seemed to be of no use.Originally, Roy avoided Wade on the offensive end, so it is really unwise to let him go head-to-head with Wade on the defensive end. In desperation, we can only give Matthews more playing time. Who makes you an outsider? Where is the gate?
The sad Matthews suffered 42 minutes of devastation, and he was not well after the game.Although his teammates played their best, his defense was useless to Wade. Wade scored 47 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists and a quasi-triple double. Bring it back.McMillan could only smile wryly, what else can you say in the face of Wade like this?
But the heat was not over yet. In the fourth finals a day later, someone broke out again. Of course, this time it was not Wade, but James.He seems to have returned to the state he was in the Cavaliers. When Wade felt cold, he stood up decisively and carried the team forward.
Ye Feng was already working hard to defend him, but James was very smart. He didn't rush to attack from the outside, but dropped low from the very beginning of the game and directly asked for the ball to play post-up.Although Ye Feng also asked Gasol and other players for advice on inside footwork, and he even practiced inside footwork himself, but James is a player who once studied under Olajuwon, and his understanding of the footwork at the basket is better than Ye Feng. front.
To put it bluntly, Olajuwon's "dream dance" does not have a specific routine. It just responds according to the defender's movements and strives to achieve the greatest effect with the least amount of effort.James has a very high quotient, and he has already understood most of the essence. It is perfect for dealing with Ye Feng.And more importantly, he can also attract the Blazers' inside defense, so that he can pass the ball out and let his teammates score.
In fact, James is not a player with a strong desire to score. Many times he scored high scores because his teammates were not good enough, and he had to take on the heavy responsibility of scoring by himself.In a very critical game, he also dared to pass the ball to his teammates at the last moment, which also attracted criticism from many people, but there is no way, he is such a person.So under Ye Feng's defense, although James didn't score many points, he turned on the assist mode, driving other teammates to start scoring.
He sent 5 assists in the first quarter. If the Blazers didn't have a good outside touch, they would have been overwhelmed by the Heat.Even so, the Blazers trailed by 35 points 42 to 7 in the first quarter. For the Blazers, 35 is a normal score in a single quarter, but it is rare for the Heat to score 42 points.
Unexpectedly, the Heat made persistent efforts in the second quarter, scored 33 points, and scored 75 points in the half game. Such a strong offensive firepower is even more surprising than the previous game. After all, this time it is the whole team, not just the team. It was one or two of them.
While the Heat scored 75 points, they also suppressed the Blazers' score to 61 points. 14 points in the halftime is indeed a big lead in the finals.But it’s not over yet. Although the Heat’s team feels less in the third quarter, James has changed his identity as an organizer, constantly breaking through and attacking the rim forcibly, and changing to emergency stop jump shots when Ye Feng blocks him. , Individuals scored as many as 22 points in a single quarter.
In desperation, McMillan could only choose to give up resistance and removed all starters with half of the remaining time in the fourth quarter.But perhaps in order to regain confidence, Spoelstra continued to let James and the others stay on the court, and did not let them rest until there were more than 3 minutes left.James scored a large triple-double of 33 points, 10 rebounds and 17 assists in the whole game, leading the Heat to a 123-99 victory with 24 points, and evened the big score to 2-2.
