After Sprewell was substituted on the court, the Knicks' offensive rhythm was a little faster, and, under the involvement of Ewing and Johnson's backs and covers, Houston and Sprewell were like fish in water, frequently making jump shots, giving full play to the characteristics of the mid-range shooting team. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Heat also seem to have recovered a little, no longer slamming around like a headless fly like in the first half, but their leading scorer Tim Hardaway seems to be lost in Charlie Ward's defense, and a lot of shots in exchange for a lot of iron, even if Mourning can grab rebounds in the frontcourt, he can't keep up with this attrition.

As a last resort, Pat Riley rotated the Heat's three point guards, but no matter who they were, nothing worked well.

Throughout the third quarter, although the Heat played very excitedly, and the fans continued to build momentum for the home team, but at the end of the third quarter, the Heat actually only chased back one, which was due to Van Gundy's early replacement of the Knicks' backcourt double gun to rest.

At the end of the third quarter, the Knicks had a 70-54 lead.

Van Gundy clapped his hands to get the attention of his players and said: "You did a great job, but don't take it lightly in the fourth quarter, there is only a 16-point difference, and once you let your guard down, you will be caught up by the opponent." Don't think about how many points you are ahead, think about beating your opponents, think about what we've been through in the past few years, think about last year, the year before last, or even before, our confrontation with the Heat, don't sympathize with your opponents, kill them! Kill them! Kill them! ”

When leading by a large margin, as long as you do a good job of defense, especially rebounding, you can almost catch the game in your hands, and for the Heat, I am sorry that they have lost more than ten rebounds, and the most rebounds they grabbed were actually the starting small forward Dan Marley, and the number of rebounds in this game PJ Brown was even less pitiful, only two.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Van Gundy replaced an extreme lineup, Camby, Dudley, Thomas, Charles, and Ward. Bizarre three-inside lineup. is such a lineup, but Pat Riley is so angry that he scolds his mother.

The three interior lines except for Dudley are all people who move quickly at their feet, and there is no problem at all with the help defense, and with Thomas's ability, the average small front really can't pass him. Both guards are team-based and have good defensive ability, and Charles's rebounding is also a must-have among guards, and this lineup is grinding time with the Heat, which is the last thing the Heat want to see right now.

After three minutes of play, the Heat and Knicks only had one three-point goal from Ward and no more points, and Pat Riley had to call a timeout again.

Van Gundy seemed to have figured out some ghost ideas again, fumbled on the note in his pocket for a while, smeared on the tactical board with a lewd smile on his face, and called the players and said: "Houston, Sprewell, Ward, Johnson, Mo you play, remember, three minutes, we have to use three minutes to stabilize the difference at twenty points, don't worry about mistakes, speed up the tempo, run more, you are all the best people in the Knicks on the offensive end, next, I want you to run to the death, kill Miami!" ”

Everyone gathered, put their hands together, and shouted, "Kill Miami!" Even in the crowded American Airlines Center, this neat shout still made everyone look sideways.

Mo Xi is on the field this time, this time there is no Ewing, he will face Mo Ning directly.

Heat ball possession, this time Pat Riley's tactical arrangement is very simple and rough, Hardaway breaks through, Mourning plays back, even if it is Mashburn, he has to play inside, in short, he is to dig the inside line to death. This was originally intended to target Ewing's movement at his feet, but he didn't want to run into a much worse defense, and the Heat generals showed malicious smiles.

Hardaway used his speed to force past Ward, and Johnson, who was in the way, couldn't help but hoist the ball to Mashburn on the flank.

Mashburn kept passing the ball to Mourning on the inside.

Mo Ning bared his sharp fangs at Mo Xi. Mourning's offense is not good, but that's also for the big four. In the face of Mo Xi, Mo Ning first chiseled into it twice, and then pulled Mo Xi to turn around, and broke into the inner line from a low position at high speed.

Mo Xi could only reluctantly follow, and when he got to the basket, he saw Mo Ning dunk strongly, and Mo Xi didn't want to jump with it, but Mo Ning staggered to the ground at an angle in the air that was not noticed by the referee, and Mo Ning completed the violent dunk on Mo Xi's head.

After Mo Ning landed, he yelled at Mo Xi, his face was hideous, his face was almost on Mo Xi's face, and Mo Xi could almost smell the stench in Mo Ning's mouth.

At this moment, Johnson appeared, pushed Mo Ning away, and pulled Mo Xi up. Johnson and Mourning stared straight at each other, as if the next moment it would be another all-out martial arts.

The surrounding teammates hurriedly pulled the two apart when they saw that the situation was not good, but the two seemed to be chattering.

"Mo Ning, why did you coax you, were you treated as a good baby by Riley/"

"Johnson kinds, don't go, we'll see you in the parking lot later."

"Okay, you have a kind, Miami Beach at twelve o'clock tonight, who goes to who grandson (just to miss the lost youth)."

……

Johnson pressed Mo Xi's shoulder and said, "Boy, you can't do that just now, you have to hit it back, and the next ball will deduct him." ”

Mo Xi is a little helpless, that's Mo Ning, just buckle it, and I'm not the protagonist of a hot-blooded novel.

However, it seems that the whole Knicks are thinking this way, and even Sprewell and Houston are pulling away for Moxi, and Ward motions for Moxi to get in the position and hoist the ball to Moxi.

Answerball, the most direct language in the league.

Mo Xi caught the ball and tried to calm his mind, he didn't make any rash moves, just turned his head back and forth, looked at Mo Ning's defensive position, and then, Mo Xi took a deep breath, Sigma stepped into a face frame, just when Mo Ning judged the direction of the opponent's attack, Mo Xi accelerated and cut the inside line straight into the penalty area.

Mourning moved quickly and didn't lose his position, he just lost the lead.

Ewing taught Mo Xi that those centers on TV are not so easy, first of all, to leave a space for themselves to exert their strength, and secondly, to make the opponent unable to interfere with themselves, the best way is to make the opponent unable to jump, otherwise, there are a few centers with such good bounce and waist strength enough to dunk in the air with a personal dunk.

Mo Xi took a big stride forward and made a sharp stop with the ball in both hands.

Mo Ning knew that this was the prelude to the opponent's dunk, and at this time, Mo Ning only had to go up and not give the other party space, but Mo Ning wanted to humiliate the other party fiercely, and he wanted to drop the ball when the opponent dunked, and actually left another step away.

Mo Xi didn't have time to think about what to do, as if he was dominated by instinct, Mo Xi jumped directly, holding the ball high above his head with both hands.

Mo Ning smiled cruelly and jumped up, as if he was going to have a battle with Mo Xi in the air.

However, it seems that a hand in the dark pushed Mo Xi, and Mo Xi actually floated past Mo Ning's arm to avoid the other party, and the two collided together, Mo Xi endured a sharp pain, stretched out his hand as much as possible, and smashed the ball into the basket.

"Drop"

Mourning fouled and added a free throw.

Mourning's light attack combined with Mo's eerie sense of smell creates a beautiful air dunk that seems to take people back to that season when Ewing was still healthy, and it seems that the Eastern Beast has returned in another way.

At this time, even if it was an enemy, the Heat's commentator had to say two words: "Ah~ Our Alonzo doesn't seem to be good, he was actually deducted, you know, the kid opposite him couldn't even hold the ball in a game of this intensity a few months ago." ”

Being so humiliated, Mo Ning seemed to be more irritable, and when he returned to the offensive end, Mo Ning asked for the ball again and beat Mo Xi. Unfortunately, there was a big problem with Moning's offensive continuity, and a forced back-to-back hit was deflected.

The previous goal seemed to give Mo Xi a lot of encouragement, and he asked for the ball again, only this time he didn't attack, and his hand was handed to Johnson, and Mourning switched to Johnson.

The two rivals faced each other, and everyone seemed to see the scorching flames in the eyes of these two people.

If Johnson was injured, Mo Ning would not be able to prevent it, but at this time, Mo Xi is no longer the man who forced everything in the past.

But neither of them seemed to take this round of offense and defense to heart, but instead focused on one thing.

First, Johnson gave Mourning an elbow, and then Mourning returned Johnson. Johnson didn't do it, and scolded Mo Ning again, and the two of them turned out to be like two little children.

Houston on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and then Mo Xi's cover, ran out of the vacant seat, and shouted to Johnson: "Larry, this way!" ”

Fortunately, Johnson was still somewhat sensible and passed the ball to Houston with a flick of his hand.

Houston also ignored the man who came to the defense, and the knife fell with his hand, and the ball went straight to the basket.

In less than three minutes, the Knicks had stretched the margin to more than 20 points.

The Heat's offense became more and more impatient, but this time, it was Mourning who grabbed the offensive rebound and practiced shooting.

The Knicks didn't give the Heat a chance to breathe, served quickly, continued to pass, Sprewell received the ball, made a block with Houston, and made a pull-up jump shot, and pulled the score away.

The Heat are gone, and the first place in the East just gave up at home, and the two sides each changed to a bench lineup.

At the end of the game, the Knicks won 95-75, and the whole Heat team was like a clockwork doll, fixed there from time to time at a loss.

Mo Xi can also be regarded as a goal of fame, and the photo of Mourning became the headline of the day.

Back in New York, the Knicks won't have much to enjoy the win, and they know it's just the beginning.
