596: The bloodiest revenge
Link hit a three-pointer as soon as he opened the game, which made Ray hit a three-pointer. Aaron smelled a hint of vengeful blood.
Link is known to be a man who has a vengeance. It's just because of Ray. Aaron has always been polite, so Link and Ray. Aaron couldn't afford a war of words.
But even without a war of words, Link will seek revenge in the game.
Thunder. Allen is still very impressed with Link, mainly because during the regular season this year, Link broke the NBA's single-game three-point shooting record. In addition, he also created perverted statistics such as 10 three-pointers in the half. Going back a long time, Link also broke the All-Star three-point contest scoring record.
In fact, Link is not shallow at all. However, people don't pigeon Link as a shooter.
It's not because Link can't shoot accurately, it's because Link is so versatile! His guy can't be summed up by a "shooter".
And Link's all-round skills often make people overlook how terrible his three-point is.
Link made a long shot as soon as he opened the game, allowing Ray to shoot from distance. Aaron had some palpitations. Once this kid is obedient, what can he do? Aaron didn't dare to think about it.
Seeing Link yelling at his teammates, Wade couldn't help but swallow. The Grizzlies are a team that is growing, from the leader to the others.
Moreover, they are growing very fast. The Grizzlies now are even different from the Grizzlies they had just played in the Finals.
Wade just doesn't know if the Heat can get through the danger this time.
With just one goal, Link made both of the Heat's main players nervous.
The Grizzlies' first attack was extremely smooth, and the Heat's first attack was strongly blocked.
James' breakaway was met by Link and Iguodala, and today, the Grizzlies changed their defensive strategy and put a trap on James.
No matter how strong James is, it will be difficult for him to score goals under the double siege of Link and Iguodala. So, James gave the ball to Wade, who was leaking!
Wade got the basketball, did not hesitate, and shot directly with three points!
In the eyes of Heat fans, this is an opportunity. But in the eyes of the Grizzlies players, it is a sign of their defensive success!
So far in the playoffs, Wade's three-point shooting rate is still only 25%. Although a few were scored in the first game, the second and third games after that began to show their true form again.
Today, the Grizzlies' strategy is to strangle James and let Wade go!
As a result, Wade was very "face-giving", and the ball really didn't go in.
The Heat's first open three-point opportunity was wasted, and the fans sighed.
In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, every time the iron is struck, it is heart-wrenching.
Wade gritted his teeth the moment he missed the shot, and he really hated this kind of moment when the team needs you, but he can't do anything about it.
Obviously, the Heat need to equalize, but Wade's three-point score is like this, and he really can't guarantee a shooting percentage.
James also knew that if Wade continued to shoot like this, it would be in the hands of the Grizzlies.
It's okay to shoot threes, but you can't let Wade shoot! James decided that the next time he ran into a bag, he would go to Ray. Alan!
But today, Ray. Aaron is getting less easy to find.
Link wants to complete redemption with three points, while Jimmy. Butler, on the other hand, wanted to redeem himself with his tight defense.
Today, Ray. Aaron became Jimmy. The only man in Butler's heart.
Thunder. Everywhere Aaron goes, Jimmy. Butler followed wherever he went. Follow Ray Now. Allen's athleticism, he's really hard to get rid of Butler.
Thunder. Allen's favorite thing is to get around the off-ball cover and shoot the ball. It can be said that this trick is thunder. Aaron's killer feature.
But today, Ray. Allen came out of the cover several times, either because Butler was blocked and had no space to catch the ball, or he received the ball and was ready to shoot, but Butler also stuck in time.
Butler was originally born in defense, and he has been with the Grizzlies for two years and has practiced the most defense. Put all your energy into staring at lightning protection today. Aaron after Ray. Aaron really doesn't have a good idea.
Thunder. Allen was really worried that at halftime, Jimmy. Butler, the stunned young man, will follow him to the bathroom...... Butler's defense has reached the point of perversion.
When James was caught again, he wanted to share the ball with Ray. Allen, but the ball can't be passed at all.
In the end, James still had to play the ball to Wade. Wade didn't dare to shoot outside the three-point line, and during the playoffs, Wade averaged only 0.3 three-point shots per game...... As a guard, this three-point shot can be said to be very strange.
The first shot didn't score, and Wade basically didn't dare to shoot three-pointers.
Wade can't take advantage of this open spot without shooting three-pointers. The Heat's offense had big problems, and the Grizzlies' defensive strategy worked well.
With the offense restricted, Link's fiery three-point touch today accelerated the death of the Heat.
After continuing the three-pointer at the beginning of the first quarter, at the end of the first quarter, Link used another three-pointer to stretch the margin to double digits.
In the seventh minute of the second quarter, Link hit a step-back jumper on the left side of the basket.
When Link hit the third three-pointer, Ray hit the third three-pointer. Aaron was starting to get a little nervous.
Link, this guy doesn't really want to use the three-point shot to complete revenge.
By halftime, Link had scored 17 points. Among them, he made 3 of 4 three-point shots.
On the other hand, the Heat, Wade made 2 of 8, and Ray. Aaron only made 2 shots, and all of them were missed. trailed the Grizzlies by 14 points at halftime, and they couldn't help but be weak!
The Heat performed today as if nothing had happened in the last game. How tough the game should be, or how tough it is.
It really fulfilled Link's words, "Ray. Allen's amazing shot is my! ”
In the second half, Wade and James' offense struggled. Link's three-pointer was completely opened.
Throughout the second half, Link shot from beyond the three-point line 5 times, hitting 4 of them!
One of the balls was Ray in the last game. Aaron scored in the position of the lore!
When Link hit a long-range three-pointer from a step outside the three-point line in the final 2:58 of the final quarter, James was stunned.
Link's revenge is really too heavy, he just lost the last game, and today's game made James feel the feeling of being pierced by 30,000 arrows.
"The 7th three-pointer of the game! Link is absolutely amazing today! He fell outside the three-point line in the last game, and today, Link is about to get back up from outside the three-point line! With a 16-point difference, the Miami Heat is about to lose Tianwang Mountain. They'll have to do something, and if they get the Grizzlies to get the match point back home, it's going to be very difficult! ”
Mike. After Brinn finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. He wasn't hot, and there was no problem with the air conditioning at the American Airlines Center today. Mike. Brin's sweat was scared out!
Link's performance from beyond the three-point line today was simply amazing, shooting 7-of-9 from the field and shooting 77.8%! This shooting percentage is even higher than Iguodala's free throw shooting percentage!
was killed by three points in the last game, Link immediately turned the tide today, this terrible ability, so that Mike. Brin embarrassed.
Jordan was taunted in the Finals for not shooting three-pointers, but he immediately broke the Finals half-time three-point record. The current Link is kind of like that.
The more you lose at something, the more you will be beaten in this area and leave you speechless!
The battle of Tianwang Mountain has been publicized for a long time, and everyone thought that this game would be very anxious. But Link played from the second half and didn't intend to save the suspense until the end. His three-pointer kept the Heat from narrowing the margin to single digits, and it still is.
Whenever the Heat try to close the gap, Link hits a three-pointer. Just like this again and again, stifling the confidence and hope of the Heat.
The pain that the Heat gave Link, Link really doubled down on today.
In the last 2 minutes, 16 points behind. James has to fight, he's going to have to nibble on this fifth game anyway.
So in the next round, James was stunned to score the ball under the pull of Link and Iguodala, and the difference was narrowed to 14 points! Moreover, there will be a penalty!
"It's LeBron, who can still score the ball despite the pull of two people, it's too difficult! In this year's finals, we undoubtedly saw how much power the major stars can burst out after being cornered! ”
Mike. Brin clapped his hands and cut Wade, who scored 32 points, saved the Heat's Ray several times. Allen, the Grizzlies with four 91 points, including James' 2+1 layup against two defensive giants just now...... This year, both teams have really played to 12 per cent of their abilities.
This is the charm of the finals. Here, you can see the ultimate performances of the stars!
James panted and stood at the free-throw line, already very tired. The whole game was entangled by Link and Iguodala, and James was really a little overwhelmed.
Wade, Bosh and Ray. Allen scored unfavorably today, and the offense basically relied on James to be both a father and a mother. By now, I have long been powerless.
Although James took two deep breaths after standing at the free throw line, Link still saw James's chest heaving violently.
It's very dangerous to take free throws when you breathe unevenly. What's more, Lao Zhan's free throws have been unstable. There has never been a season in his career where James has shot 80 percent from the free-throw line. This season, the free-throw shooting percentage is just 75.3 percent, a five-year low.
Link was extremely focused, and he had a hunch that James was unlucky for this key free throw!
James dribbled twice, and the players on both sides began to play aggressively. Link bends over and is ready to sprint!
In the expectant eyes of the Heat fans, James threw the ball out. But as soon as he made his shot, Link ran towards the basket.
The ball is crooked!
"Bang!" Basketball is like a three-pointer in the last minute of the last game.
But this time, Bosh didn't grab the rebound in the frontcourt. Allen didn't get a second shot.
Link grabbed the rebound the moment the basketball bounced off the basket and didn't give the Heat a second chance to attack!
James had a chance to close the deficit to 13 points, but he missed. And today, Link won't let the Heat redeem themselves.
He grabbed the rebound and immediately advanced to the frontcourt, and everyone knew that when there was not much time left, if Link scored again, it would basically be equivalent to a death sentence for the Heat!
Link's impact was fast, and James was not to be outdone. But it can be seen that James's physical strength is a little unbearable.
In the end, James chose to foul early and hugged Link!
In a situation where conventional methods have no way of stopping Link, an early foul is the only thing James can do. Even if Link only hits one free throw, the Heat will be considered earned!
Again, in this life-or-death moment, Link was called to the free-throw line.
Today, Link has taken revenge on the Heat with a three-pointer on 7-of-9 shooting.
Now, it's time to make up for what you owe from the free throws.
To win, win thoroughly!
