Chapter 176: Glory Pool Amplification
May 18, 2014, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Vacgiovia Center. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The seven-tiebreaker between the Heat and the 76ers will start at 7 o'clock on time, but from 6 o'clock in the evening, fans began to pour into the arena, and a large number of NBA-related practitioners, including reporters, photographers, and commentators, also came to the arena.
The Wajovia Arena became the focus of the entire NBA on this day.
In the home team's dressing room, the atmosphere was a little awkward, and Anxi also seemed a little silent, and this was seen by Brett Brown, who thought that Anxi might have lost confidence like other players.
In this regard, Brett Brown could only sigh.
However, as a head coach, his responsibilities still have to be shouldered, this game, Brett Brown thought for a long time, the 76ers are not without a chance to win, on the contrary, there is always a chance, don't look at the outside one-sided thinking that the Heat will win the tie-break, but as long as the 76ers do their best, the Heat will not win this game too easily.
Brett Brown clapped his hands: "Guys, sober up and look at how you guys look now, as if we've lost this game." ”
As he spoke, Brett Brown spread his hands, and An Xi smiled, and his teammates smiled as well, but they smiled a little reluctantly.
However, Brett Brown noticed An Xi's smile, and it didn't seem so reluctant? Hey, didn't Anxi lose faith in this game?
Just when Brett Brown couldn't understand An Xi, An Xi stood up and waved his arm at his teammates: "That's right, Brett is right, now is not the time for you to be sad, because the game hasn't started yet, we need to raise our morale, lift it!" ”
"Nobody expects us to win this game, so we have to look after ourselves because otherwise there is no need to play this game, right?"
An Xi's words played a little role, and a veteran like Pau Gasol, with a high level of professionalism, has become normal.
An Xi breathed a sigh of relief, at least his teammates wouldn't be abnormal from the beginning of the game.
Brett Brown looked at Anxi, and he felt that the hope of winning this game was on Anxi, so after a little thought, he announced the starting lineup and style of play for this game.
"Okay, let's start today's game, point guard McCarvey, shooting guard Anxi, small forward Jack Crowder, power forward Pau Gasol and center Cole Aldridge."
Cole Aldridge raised his head in surprise, he didn't expect that he would start such an important game.
"In this game, we played the same way as the last game, picking up the speed and seizing the opportunity to counterattack, but on the defensive end, you have to pay attention to the Heat's counterattack." Brett Brown looked at the surprised Cole Aldridge. "Kerr, you're starting this game, and you're tasked with protecting the basket."
Kerr Aldridge was given the chance to start, a decision made by Brett Brown after thinking about it for a long time, and he felt that only by playing Kerr Aldridge and returning Anxi to the outside could the team's counter-attack quality improve.
"Ann, your task is to participate in the counterattack, we don't need you to protect the basket in this game, but you still need to do a good job of helping to defend on the outside."
An Xi nodded, such a duty is in the middle of his heart, he can participate in the fast attack.
"Okay, that's all for the game, let's get ready to play......"
……
The atmosphere in the home team's dressing room was still a little awkward, but at the scene at the Wajovia Arena, the atmosphere was already very hot.
The Turner Sports trio began their commentary amid the cacophony inside the arena.
"Hello viewers, this is Turner Sports Channel, welcome to the live broadcast of the NBA playoffs brought to you by Turner Sports, this game is between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Miami Heat, the series tie-break, I'm Craig Sager......"
"Hi everyone, I'm Charles Barkley."
"I'm Kenny Smith and it's a pleasure to meet you all again......"
The three of them greeted the camera in turn.
"The game hasn't started yet, this tie-break has attracted national and even global attention, Charles, Kenny, we've covered the six games of this series, we already know a lot about the Heat and the 76ers, what do you think of this game of global attention?"
As moderator, Craig Sager was the first to ask questions, which were tossed to Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.
Kenny Smith didn't think much of it and spoke first: "I don't care what other people think, I've always been a supporter of Philadelphia, and this game is a showdown between the Heat and the 76ers, so I think that whether it's the Heat or the 76ers, they have a chance to win this showdown." ”
"If it's from a fan perspective, I'd support the 76ers, but if it's from a commentator's perspective, I think it's more reasonable for the Heat to win."
"Kenny, when did you learn to throw in the towel?" Charles Barkley teased Kenny Smith, and Kenny Smith shook his head helplessly: "No way, the advantage now is indeed on the side of the Heat." ”
Charles Barkley nodded and agreed: "I agree with Kenny, now the Heat have the advantage, in many ways, first of all, the strength, the Heat, with the Big Three and a group of powerful role players, is obviously not comparable to the combination of the 76ers Anxi and Paul Gasol." ”
"Secondly, from the perspective of playing style, the Heat after the acceleration obviously restrained the 76ers, Omir Asik no longer had time to play, Anxi was forced to go inside, and the forced change of formation made the 76ers sacrifice a lot of advantages."
"In the end, in terms of momentum and mentality, the Heat won two games in a row and dragged the game into a tie-break, and the momentum was in full swing, while the 76ers lost two games in a row when the promotion was within reach, and their morale has fallen to the bottom."
"If the 76ers have any advantage, it's probably the home-court advantage they grabbed in the regular season."
Charles Barkley has said so much, and what proves is that the 76ers have no advantage other than this final home court.
Before the game began, no one was optimistic about the 76ers, not even several commentators from Turner Sports, who had always had a good impression of the 76ers......
……
The players of both teams came out and the atmosphere in the stadium began to reach its climax.
Anxi stood in the center of the court, and then, under the prompt of the system, began to consume the glory pool.
"Are you sure you're going to consume the glory pool?"
An Xi didn't want to think about it, and clicked OK, and chose five at the same time.
The pool of glory shook violently, emitting a fiery red light, which was consumed all at once......
"The host consumes five glory pools and gains a 150% increase in attributes throughout the game!"
An Xi breathed a sigh of relief, he jumped on the court, and sure enough, he felt that his whole body was full of strength, and at this time, the game was about to start.
The referee of this game is still bald referee Joe Crawford, who walked to the center of the court with the basketball in his arms, and the starters of both teams also came to the center of the court.
"The game started, the starters of the two teams were released, the 76ers' side, their starting lineup changed again, Anxi returned to the position of scoring guard, Cole Aldridge got the opportunity to start, I don't know if the 76ers will insist on speeding up in this game, the effect of speeding up in the last game is average, but if it doesn't speed up, maybe the 76ers will lose even more."
"The Heat also made a change of lineup, Chris Anderson started instead of Oden, the effect of Oden's start in the last game was average, it seems that David Fitzdale finally decided to let Chris Anderson start."
"Both teams have made further changes in this game based on the process and result of the previous game, okay, tie-break! Officially started ......"
Cole Aldridge and Chris Bosh jumped the ball, and when the basketball was thrown over the arena, Chris Bosh jumped up first and grabbed the basketball.
The Heat won the opening game, and the opening court opened with a chorus of "defense".
Because it was the beginning of the game, the Heat couldn't play a fast break, so they could only enter the positional battle to find opportunities.
Anxi went up in front of LeBron James, and he once again began to defend LeBron James in this game.
LeBron James waited at a forty-five-degree angle for a while, and then suddenly ran back, rushed to the top of the arc to receive the basketball, and An Xi also followed closely and directly pasted it.
From the very beginning of the game, Anxi had to put pressure on LeBron James from the defensive end, and his defensive style was also surprising, he actually pasted LeBron James at the beginning, which was very surprising.
Because many people know LeBron James's shooting shortcomings, and James' strong breakthrough is also feared by many people, almost everyone, when defending LeBron James, will choose to put one or even two steps in case LeBron James' breakthrough.
But Anxi seems to have forgotten about this and directly began to defend LeBron James closely.
James was also surprised, but he quickly saw Anxi's close defense as an opportunity.
A change of direction with a crotch dribble, and then accelerated straight and directly broke through Anxi......
"LeBron James's breakthrough is very fast, he is going to get rid of Anxi!"
Craig Sager just wanted to question Anxi's defensive style, but in the next second, a surprising scene happened.
The 76ers fans on the sidelines let out a burst of exclamations when LeBron James accelerated to break through, but the next second, their exclamations were even louder.
Because Anxi began to exert his strength......
After he was thrown away by LeBron James, he suddenly accelerated violently, catching up with LeBron James at a speed visible to the naked eye......
This is not over, after catching up with James, Anxi did not entangle LeBron James on the spot, but accelerated further, like overtaking, overtaking LeBron James......
Craig Sager's eyes widened in surprise: "Oh no! Anxi is faster! He caught up directly with LeBron James and rushed in front of James! ”
James rushed to the free throw line and came to a stop.
There was an exclamation on the sidelines again, and just when everyone thought that An Xi was too fast to stop the car, An Xi suddenly stopped, turned around and jumped up.
The big hand was sealed in front of James, and there was a bang.
Unsurprisingly, LeBron James' shot hit the ground!
A perfect defense! From beginning to end, Anxi didn't give James any chance!
After successfully defending, An Xi felt very cool, and this is the power of the glory pool amplification! (To be continued.) )
