Chapter 527: The Cold War of the Regular Season

"Nikola Vucevic leaned on Chris Bosh, can this white center save the Magic and end the Heat's winning streak!?" At the American Airlines Arena, the home of the Miami Heat, all the fans stood up, and Mark Jackson, who was commentating the game, stared nervously at the court. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

With 30 seconds left before the end of the game, the Magic are just one point behind the Heat.

As the current No. 1 scorer for the Magic, Swiss center Nikola Vucevic controls the ball for the Magic's final attack.

Facing the Heat's weak interior lineup, Vucevic has already chipped in a terrifying statistic of 23 points and 21 rebounds. If the Magic can win this game, then Vucevic will be indispensable. With this opportunity, Vucevic can also shine.

But first, Vucevic has to close the gap first.

He leaned on Bosh's cautious tentativeness, and James was eager to go up and help, but the Magic small forward Maurice Harkris who was opposite James pinned James firmly with his excellent touch today.

Do you think James didn't think about this trick before? But Harkles used three 3-pointers to completely contain James from the outside.

Vucevic did not have a precise estimate of the remaining time in the game, and for him it was just a goal. He's not a superstar, unlike they always think about everything.

Scoring first and then thinking about other issues, that's what Vucevic is going to do. So while James couldn't finish the pack, Vucevic suddenly turned around and jumped, and Bosh reacted in a very timely manner and almost completed the block. But today's Vucevic, who had a strange hand, scored the ball under Bosh's excellent defense. Now in the final moments of the game, Vucevic's goal is completely a quasi-lore!

96-95, the Magic team went from being behind to being dominant in an instant. With little time left in the game, the Heat will need to ensure both speed and success rate before they have a chance to complete the comeback.

Spoelstra immediately called a timeout to lay out the Heat's last-ditch offense. All the TV cameras were on the Heat's bench, with James and Wade, two of the best guys of the day, undoubtedly going to be the executors of the final offense.

The Magic players and fans were nervous, and although they were the ones who had the advantage right now, the Heat were still very uneasy about having the last offensive possession.

Especially Nikola Vucevic, who has already cut down 25 points and 21 rebounds today, is too embarrassing to lose if he plays like this.

The timeout ended, and the Heat triumvirate all appeared without exception. Everyone on the Magic team tensed their nerves, as if they were under more pressure than the Heat, who were behind.

Bosh sends a sideline ball and Wade unhurriedly controls the ball. Former All-Star vacant Jameel Nelson didn't dare to slack off, and Wade has scored 24 points today and is shooting 60 percent from the field. Although Wade's combat effectiveness is not as good as before due to his physical condition, at least today, the Flash is still very dangerous.

As the clock ticked by, Wade was still just controlling the ball from beyond the three-point line. The less time there is, the more nervous the Magic players become. The pressure on the Heat Big Three is too great.

Suddenly, Wade finally made a move! Nelson was so frightened that he quickly spread his arms wide, for fear that the Flash would complete the breakthrough.

However, Wade only passed the ball, but the person who received the ball made everyone on the Magic team even more afraid.

"LeBron James received a pass from Wade from outside the three-point line, and Maurice Harkles stuck very tightly! LeBron forced a breakover! He made a layup with great physical contact! Oh my God, LeBron is so strong, Harkless is no match for him!"

As soon as Mark Jackson finished speaking, James used his body to carry Harkles to complete the layup, and although Vucevic was very good on the offensive end, the guy's speed was too slow on the defensive end. He had no chance to make up for the defense at all, only to watch James turn his beautiful statistics into nothing.

"The ball is in! LeBron is on the counter-attack! 96-97, cheer, the Heat fans can cheer for their heroes!"

James raised his arms high, enjoying the treatment of a king. Magic players like Vucevic were dejected, they were so close to victory, but in the end, the results were not different from expectations.

"It's a fifteenth straight win, friends from the audience, this is the 15th straight win streak for the Heat! Last week, the Trail Blazers just completed a 27-game winning streak. Let's see if the Heat can replicate or even surpass what the Trail Blazers have done!?"

James' counter-slam brought the Heat's winning streak to 15 games, and also made their ranking at No. 1 in the East more solid.

Meanwhile, at FedEx Arena in Memphis, the Trail Blazers' game against the Grizzlies is coming to an end.

After consecutive victories over the Nuggets and Timberwolves in the past few days, the Trail Blazers once again "slaughtered" the Hornets to achieve three consecutive wins.

Anthony Davis seems to be "educated" as soon as he meets Anjie. However, with Davis, there is also Marc Gasol.

This big European white man who has performed well this season will always be suppressed as soon as he meets Anjie.

Unlike the scorching game between the Heat and the Magic, the matchup between the Trail Blazers and the Grizzlies has already been decided. In the last 30 seconds of the game, the coaches of both sides replaced all their main players. Because the Trail Blazers' lead is already as much as 10 points.

And three minutes ago, Anjie scored 10 straight points on Gasol's head, which is why the Trail Blazers can now take the lead.

Gasol Jr. has done his best, but Anjie's versatility is what makes this technically excellent "big white bear" ashamed.

Now, Gasol Jr. can no longer confront Anjie. Waiting on the bench for victory is the only option for this mobile fortress in Europe.

91-85, in the end, the Trail Blazers won the final victory by six points on the road, completing a four-game winning streak since the 27-game winning streak was ended. An Jie got 33 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists in this game, and it was precisely because of him that James, who completed the anti-lore feat earlier, did not dominate the headlines alone.

The-for-tat situation between the Trail Blazers and the Heat has been brought to the table by reporters since the All-Star break. Now, almost every game day, the commentators compare the Heat and the Trail Blazers. The anticipation of the 00VS6 finals has been implanted in the hearts of every fan.

And the Trail Blazers and the Heat, Anjie and James are also like participating in long-distance running. No one wants to give up, they don't want to fall behind.

On March 8, the Heat suffered a 76-76 slump and won 16 in a row. The Trail Blazers, on the other hand, broke the Spurs in San Antonio to win five in a row and continue to bite behind the Heat.

On March 10, the Heat crushed the Pacers, who were also Eastern Conference powerhouses. The Trail Blazers, on the other hand, relied on Iguodala's key two points in the final minute and Anjie's 33 points and 13 rebounds to beat the Bobcats, avoiding an upset, and also achieving their sixth consecutive victory.

The Trail Blazers and the Heat are like an invisible race, neither wants to fall behind, and no one wants to show weakness.

The Heat and James played a great game, and the Trail Blazers and Anjie were equally able to put in excellent performances.

Throughout the month of March, the NBA was in a period of "cold war". It's just that this "cold war" no longer belongs to the Soviet Union and the United States, but to the Heat and the Trailblazers, James and Anjie.

Finally, on March 28, the exhausted Heat were upset by the Bulls, who were missing Rose. By that day, the Heat's crazy winning streak had finally come to an end.

It's just a coincidence that their winning streak is also the second in history, tied with the Trail Blazers for second in history!

That's right, after a series of efforts, the Heat became the second team to win 27 in a row after the Trail Blazers!

Anjie thought that his record would be worth talking about for many years to come, but only a month later, the Heat replicated this myth.

The Heat triumvirate was completely pushed to the forefront, and they did everything that was almost unthinkable. With a 27-game winning streak, the Heat tied the record in a month. The Trail Blazers, on the other hand, not only did they not extend their winning streak in March, but they also missed the chance to break the Bulls' record for the best record of the season.

They lost two games in March and their record changed to 61-9. Although this record is still very good, it can be said that in this cold game in March, it was the Heat who temporarily took the lead.

In April, the final month of the NBA's regular season, the positions of the various teams, especially the Heat and the Trail Blazers, were almost unshakable in their respective divisions.

In such a situation, Spoelstra and Ricard have both used the wheel frequently, hoping to preserve the fitness of their main players so that they can perform firmly in the playoffs.

After all, the Trail Blazers and Heat aren't just fighting for a playoff spot, they're aiming for the O'Brien Cup!

In this case, the Heat and Trail Blazers have lost far more games than before.

However, the two teams still maintained their excellent records and continued to compete in the regular season.

....................

Stephen Curry will never forget that look, the look that belongs only to the winners.

Anjie smiled and high-fived Meyers Leonard, her eyes full of joy. He can rest, because Anjie won't be playing for too long now because of the needs of the playoffs.

Curry is envious of stars who can get the privilege of leaving the court early, not because Curry likes to be lazy, but because being able to get off the court early usually means that you have won early.

Anjie's situation today obviously belongs to the category of early victory.

"What's the fuss, Stephen, Defend, Fisher is here!" the Warriors coach yelled at Curry, who was in a daze, that if this game was lost and the Lakers won the game, then the Warriors would become eighth in the West. Becoming eighth in the West means the Warriors and the Trail Blazers will meet in the first round.

That's the worst-case scenario, and they'd rather play the Spurs, who are second in the West, than run into the Trail Blazers too early.

The Warriors players continue to fight and are unwilling to give up. Curry, a young guard, also played very hard, but unfortunately he was not in good shape today, and his three-point shot was repeated and ironed.

So now, the Trail Blazers' lead has become 17 points, and it is only two minutes off the clock.

Ricard replaced Anjie, which can be regarded as announcing the result of this game in advance.

Curry wanted to do something, but he found himself unable to do anything.

David Lee was abused by Anjie into "berserk" mode, he shot like crazy on the inside, and against the inexperienced Leonard, Lee did play very well.

It's just that Curry and other outside opportunities will not appear in David Lee's eyes now. He has been driven crazy by An Jie, and now he is crazy singles, even if David Lee vents his unwillingness in his heart.

He scored like crazy in front of Meyers Leonard, but David Lee's single shot was clearly not what the Warriors wanted. If the Warriors want to catch up with such a big gap, they must rely on the help of three-point shooting. But after David Lee dominated the ball, Curry, Thompson and other shooters did not have a chance to shoot three points at all.

Mike Brin couldn't help but praise Anjie in his heart, this Chinese is very good, not only because of his skills, but also because he can always make his opponents lose their minds.

As the minutes ticked by, David Lee still had no intention of passing. And the Warriors couldn't complete the comeback until the end of the game a second before the end of the game.

88-99, the Warriors lost to the Trail Blazers by 11 points on the road. Now, the Warriors have nothing but hope for the Lakers. If the Lakers win, then the Warriors will have to get the first round of the playoffs against the Trail Blazers. Because this game is the last regular season game of the 2012~2013 season.

If they do become eighth in the West, the Warriors will not be confident of creating another Black Eight miracle.

However, for Anjie and the Trail Blazers, they have drawn a perfect end to the regular season.

The next time they keep playing, they're fighting for the playoffs, they're fighting for a championship.

The battle with the Heat is coming to an end, if both teams can make the cut. I am afraid that the situation of the Cold War will turn into a hot war with real guns.
