Chapter 185: Crazy Solo Performance
Trailing by nine points at halftime was an acceptable margin for the Fire, and Wade used that time to get back to strength.
At halftime, the Lakers held a special welcome ceremony for the children of "Nesmouth Training Camp", for which the official cancellation of the performance of the midfield cheerleaders.
In this nationally streamed game, the campers appeared one by one at halftime and introduced every player to the whole of the United States.
This is a special gift from Los Angeles to the players.
This particular design link sent the broadcast ratings soaring, and the 20-minute exposure netted owner Bass millions of dollars.
In front of the TV, Jamil. Martin was sipping his tea leisurely, "Yes, much stronger than when I started." ”
"Martin, this is the Chinese player you mentioned to me? It looks ordinary. Across from him sat a middle-aged man, in a contemptuous tone.
"Who am I, Scout Martin, don't you believe my vision?" Martin swore in response.
Martin has indeed rarely looked away, most of the players who came out of his hands have become independent stars, but those are American players, they all have excellent basketball genes, and the other party's attitude is quite conservative about what kind of height a Chinese player can reach in the NBA, after all, China has only had a superstar Yao Ming.
"If you want to win, I can't guarantee it, but if you want to get your pockets up, I guarantee you'll make a lot of money."
The other party is satisfied, and the Chinese market is still very good.
......
After a short halftime break, the game between the Lakers and the (rè) fire continued, and as expected, the two teams brought in the core of the house as soon as they came up.
The arena, which had been silent for a whole section, ushered in the atmosphere again.
"This is the posture for a decisive battle." Both sides fielded their strongest line-ups, which is a very unreasonable arrangement for a game.
Normally, the team will play at the beginning of the first quarter and the second half of the fourth quarter, and the middle game is a mix of main players and role players, the purpose is to maintain a certain combat effectiveness while ensuring that the players have enough physical reserves, such as this kind of third quarter to send an all-main lineup (qíng) is extremely rare.
Moreover, the two teams actually used the same combat strategy.
The decisive moment is coming early!
McGrady offered to defend Wade, which was rejected by James.
He was well aware of the purpose of the Fire team's lineup, which was to control the situation on the court from the first round, and sitting on the bench allowed James to fully recover his fitness, as well as his opponents.
No one can afford to be lazy with Wade, who is full of physical energy.
Neither can James himself.
Holding a sulky breath, Wade opened the game with his signature lost step, and (bī) really broke through and successfully deceived everyone's eyes, scoring the ball with a low-handed layup.
The highest level of feints is that you know that it is a feint, but you will still be involuntarily deceived.
The Lost Step is a high-level technical move that is based on the opponent's defensive instincts.
Bruce. Wade's lost steps have been sublimated and improved on the basis of old Wade.
"How did you do that?" Wade's maze is not only fake, but also fast, giving people no time to react.
James wanted to respond with an aerial relay, but the basketball was intercepted by Wade in the air.
In the fast attack counterattack, Wade delivered his first assist of the game to help the opponent fight back.
The Fire's strong comeback caught the Lakers off guard, and in less than a minute, the Lakers applied for the first timeout of the second half.
"You guys pass me the ball later." Wade said to his teammates, "I'll leave it to myself in the second half." ”
Wade was going to take the Fire team all the offense by himself, but his teammates didn't look surprised in the slightest, because he had done it before.
Three years ago, Wade, who was just starting out in the league, took all of the team's shots in the second half, hitting 20 of them from 48 attempts, and although the Fire ultimately lost the game, Wade scored 60 points in the whole game, setting a scoring record, and that time he was only thinking about the record.
After three years, Wade has made another crazy decision, and this time he wants to win.
"There are 24 minutes left in the game." Teammates reminded.
"24 minutes, that's enough." Wade only let out one sentence and returned to the venue.
As the game continued, Wade began his own almost frantic solo performance.
In the opening game, he scored 8 points in a row, and after missing a three-pointer, Wade continued his firepower, and beat the opponent 6:0 alone.
James led the team to a positive response and formed a confrontation with Wade.
"What kind of intensity is this?" It's hard to believe that the intensity on the court at this moment is beyond human reach, and even long-time basketball fans can't explain it properly.
Wade is taking on the Lakers team on his own, and he is not falling behind.
If the opponent is an ordinary fish belly, Wade's super performance is barely acceptable, but the other party is the championship team, Wade actually pressed the championship to the ground and rubbed it, and he simply didn't take the championship seriously.
Halfway through the third quarter, Wade's offensive intensity did not decrease at all, and James was the only one left in the court who could keep up with his rhythm.
"He's been able to crush the whole team with just his speed."
Wade averaged just 12 seconds per offense, using only half the allotted time, and his fast pace allowed him to get twice as many shots as usual.
After three quarters, Wade had scored 47 points, 32 of which came in the third quarter, which was also the team's score.
Wade's performance helped the team narrow the margin to two points, and he made 16 of 38 shots in the entire third quarter, which was not a high shooting percentage, but the high number of shots gave him a high score.
There is no shortage of players in the NBA who burst out with strong scoring ability, but there are not many players who can score 30 points in a single quarter, and Wade has also become the first player in the history of the (rè) Fire team to score more than 30 points in a single quarter.
Just as reporters in Miami were about to make a big splash about the record, Wade put on an even more thrilling performance in the fourth quarter.
After scoring 32 points in the third quarter, Wade exploded with more offensive firepower in the fourth quarter, and bombarded the entire quarter indiscriminately, hitting a historic 40 shots in a single quarter and scoring 33 points, he had a chance to use a free throw to improve his score, but he gave up that free throw, and finally Wade's score was fixed at 80 points.
The 65 points in the second half broke Chamberlain's personal half-time scoring record of 59 points.
And 80 points also became the third player to reach 80 points after Chamberlain and Kobe.
Wade's 80 points completely overshadowed James' 56-point triple-double, and both men played a beautiful game.
In the end, the Fire won 108-107 against the defending champions, led by Wade.
After the game, Lakers owner Buss gave Wade the game ball to commemorate his crazy performance in the game.
It was a crazy night.
After the race, the campers couldn't calm down for a long time, and they saw a great record happen so vividly before their eyes.
After leaving Staples, the campers checked into a hotel near the arena, and when they returned to the hotel, it was already early in the morning, and the campers washed up, rested, and prepared for the final day of the camp.
