Chapter 306: The Third Quarter of the Torment

Of course, Green's role is not just to poke at the eye and kick people, even if these things are aside, his defense is still at the top of the league, and the ability to play forward with assists is still rare in the league.

Wang Xiao believes that under his own tutelage, Green should become a five-good young man who stresses civilization and cultivates a new style.

……

With James being late for a technical foul and being replaced by the head coach protectively, the Heat's situation on the court completely collapsed.

Originally, James couldn't stop conceding points when he was there, let alone when he wasn't on the court?

Taking advantage of James' absence, the Wizards' side extended the margin to more than 20 points in one fell swoop.

In the regular season, the Wizards also have a record of never losing a game in which the Wizards lead by more than 20 points at halftime.

A 20-point difference is not a particularly large margin in many games in the NBA, and it only takes a wave of sharp offensive rhythm to easily catch up or even overtake.

But this season, the Wizards have never lost a game with a halftime lead of more than 20 points.

The main reason for this was the Wizards' most ferocious third quarter.

The Wizards' bench lineup is luxurious, which allows the team's main starters to go off the court early, and the halftime time plus extra rest can often keep Curry and other starters full of fitness.

In this case, once you are on the field, you can often use the physical advantage to continue to expand the score.

This time is no exception.

At halftime, the difference was 21 points, and when the third quarter began, less than three minutes later, the Heat called two timeouts in a row.

Forcing them to call a timeout was the Wizards' main core Stephen. Curry.

"Stephen. Curry! Three-point shot! Hit ——!!! ”

In the cheers of the tsunami version of the audience, Curry raised his head to the sky and roared, as if he wanted to exhale all the depression.

This is already his third three-pointer since the start of the third quarter! In less than 3 minutes, he has scored 9 points single-handedly! ”

Wade is not the Flash of the year after all.

In the first two quarters of the game, relying on abundant physical strength and experience, Wade stared Curry to death, as long as Curry was close to the three-point line or had a tendency to catch the ball, he would cling to it and not give Curry a chance.

But after two quarters of the game, Wade finally slowed down and couldn't keep up with Curry's rhythm.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Curry actively ran the position, ran out of the open position one after another, and successfully hit the basketball.

In three minutes, Curry scored nine points alone, while the Heat only scored five points in this time.

The point difference continues to widen further, making the Heat more and more anxious.

James' turnovers also began to mount as the defender of him reverted back to Leonard, who had almost a full quarter off in the second quarter.

James, who played nearly 20 minutes in the first half, was far from reaching his physical limit at this time, but with Leonard and Green taking turns to serve, the consumption was far beyond the usual period.

It was very difficult under Leonard's ferocious scramble.

Even though Spoelstra called two timeouts in a row, he still couldn't stabilize the situation, and the difference continued to widen, and before he knew it, it was above 30 points.

The Wizards' home fans went crazy and cheered excitedly.

Finish, a one-sided abuse, in front of the Wizards, the Heat is still as vulnerable as ever, and it has collapsed before it even lasts at the end of the third quarter.

The entire third quarter of the game was undoubtedly an ordeal for the Heat's players and fans.

When the whistle blew at the end of the third quarter, almost every member of the Heat breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter how far the difference is reached, at least they can finally catch their breath.

On the Wizards' side, Wang Xiao looked at the score on the court and nodded with satisfaction.

98:66, a full 32-point difference.

It's not the largest margin in NBA playoff history, but it's enough to ensure a suspenseful victory.

……

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Heat Big Three did not appear.

During the break before the fourth quarter, Spoelstra gave it a lot of thought and finally decided to abandon the game.

The Heat currently scored 66 points in the third quarter, and the average is only 22 points per quarter, according to this calculation, even if the Wizards don't score a point in the fourth quarter, it will be difficult for the Heat to catch up with the huge 31-point difference.

And let a team that scored 98 points in the third quarter not score a point in the fourth quarter? What international jokes?

Although they were very unwilling, they still gave up this game for strategic considerations, giving the Big Three more rest time to recharge and prepare for the next game.

The Heat team took the initiative to give up, and Wang Xiao also replaced all the main forces and also replaced a set of substitute lineups.

However, Wang Xiao's bench lineup is much more luxurious than that of the Heat.

Isaiah. Thomas, Jimmy. Butler, Chandler. Parsons, Yi Jianlian plus Thackeray.

Among these people, I am afraid that Thackeray has no ability, after all, as a full player, Thackeray does not even have much playing time in the regular season, and can only simply act as a tool man for a spare tire substitute.

In addition to him, the rest of them are fully capable of being the starters, even Yi Jianlian.

This season, in fact, Yi Jianlian didn't get much playing time in the team.

Only as an interior player, his priority on the court is to be behind Green, Jamison, and even Chandler. Parsons also played a little bit more than he did.

Throughout the regular season, Yi Jianlian averaged about 8 minutes per game, contributing 3.2 points and 2.4 rebounds.

Although Wang Xiao let Yi Jianlian practice three points hard, and the latter also practiced a so-so and passable three-point projection ability, but from all sides, Green, Jamison, Chandler. Parsons and other swingmen are better than him.

Wang Xiao wanted to help Yi Jianlian, but he didn't support him in the form of brainlessness and ignoring him to play.

Letting Yi Jianlian stay in the team is Wang Xiao's greatest help to him.

In the training module, Wang Xiao has always given Yi Jianlian the same training priority as Curry, George, Leonard, Thompson and other players, or even better than Jimmy. Butler & Green.

In the past two seasons, under the cultivation of the training module, Yi Jianlian's strength has undoubtedly made great progress compared to another time and space.

Wang Xiao is fully confident that after this season, even if Yi Jianlian does not stay with the Wizards, he can be fully qualified to be a substitute for most teams in the league with his current ability.

And if Yi Jianlian is willing to continue to stay in the Wizards, then after Jamison retires, Wang Xiao doesn't mind letting him try to see if he can be qualified for Jamison's position.
