Chapter 645: High Temperatures in Texas

"The Heat's defense against Yi has to be tighter, and Dwayne, who is playing stop-and-go, may have a hard time keeping up with Yi's footsteps at this time. If the Heat want to limit his play, they must rely on the power of the system. "Watching Wade be passed by Yiyang in one step, Kenny. Smith didn't feel good about it, either.

"You're kidding me, Kenny, System? Does the Heat still have a defensive system? Barkley sarcastically asked that compared to the Mavericks and Spurs, the Heat's defense does look a lot worse.

The Heat almost capsized in the Eastern Conference Finals, and if it weren't for James' god-level performance, it might be Paul who is standing on the Finals stage now. George too. Among them, the Heat's defense is dragging back.

Although they were scored as soon as they started the game, the Heat were not discouraged. Wade possessed the ball himself and passed the half, but he was able to face Tony. Aaron is not much easier than facing Yiyang.

Wade didn't dribble much, and he was no longer the "Flash" who could go straight to the basket and take the head of the basket with a little hanging. Seeing James come out, Wade directly handed over the ball.

James held the ball on the flank, and Bosh was immediately in place to block it. The No. 6 kicked in immediately, and with his quicker pace and stronger body, he swept past Dirk and entered the three-second zone.

In the face of Gobert's defense, James threw directly from close range. While throwing isn't a common technique for James, that doesn't mean he's not using it well. The almighty "little emperor" is not in vain.

With basketball in the net, LeBron was going to carry the team forward from the first second of the game. He is extremely strong, and the dream of three consecutive championships has prompted James to grit his teeth and persist until now!

"LeBron is truly impeccable." On the bench, Darrell. Armstrong shook his head helplessly.

'He's really flawless, but he can't beat a whole team by himself. Look at Darrell, it's a battle between individual basketball and team basketball! Carlisle was confident and James was as strong as he expected. The only thing that can stop that No. 6 from continuing to wreak havoc on the alliance is time.

But Carlisle is not afraid, he believes in the strength of everyone in the Mavericks, and the strength is stronger than the strength of James alone!

In the next attack, Chalmers was still sideways by Yiyang's side. Spoelstra didn't have much to do, and he didn't want to be in the bag so early.

Yiyang's front MOP, who was once in the NCAA semifinals, is completely a "cash machine" in his opinion.

It's not a day or two since Chalmers has been questioned, and people always say that he is the weakest championship point guard in history. Although this sentence is somewhat exaggerated, Chalmers's performance is indeed not flattering. From the amazing "thigh-level performance" in 12 years to everyone shouting and beating now, this guy's career journey is also quite strange.

Chalmers' defense was useless, and Yiyang changed direction in front of a large arc, passing Chalmers like a stake.

James, who was angry, immediately made up for it, and he planned to use his strong body to oppress Yiyang. But Yiyang used a bowling posture and threw the ball very casually to Iguodala, who was empty. When he passed the ball, he didn't even look at Iguodala!

James didn't know how Yiyang did it, he was already a very good person at organizing attacks. But James still can't understand why Yiyang can always find his free teammates and pass the ball so accurately.

Iguodala received the basketball and didn't waste Yiyang's wonderful pass. His mid-range shot was slightly disrupted by Wade, who came from the defense, but still hit it steadily.

Yiyang began to lead the whole team, which is undoubtedly worse for the Heat. How scary is a calf with all the firepower? Take a look at the spurs that have been completely suppressed by the Mavericks and you'll know the answer.

4-2, James had a momentum of breaking the boat as soon as he started, but the Mavericks looked at ease.

In the following games, James completely became the sole pillar of the Heat team. And the Mavericks team, under the organization of Yiyang, played a multi-point flowering performance.

However, with James's excellent play, the Heat still bit the score to death. But when James came off the court, the situation of the game changed completely.

The Heat's second lineup is incredibly old, and Chris. Anderson and Sean. Battier's name gives the impression that they are characters from a previous era. Thunder. Although Allen only contributed a lethal three-point in the finals last season, he is now 39 years old, but his form has plummeted. Although they can play well occasionally, most of the time they can't make a difference.

Nick. Yang grabbed this aging lineup and played extremely energetically, he even threw and sudden, and he has become the incarnation of Yiyang.

Watch the score be Nick. Yang gradually pulled away, and James gritted his teeth, turned his head and shouted.

"Eric!"

The Philippine coach turned his head when he heard this.

"I'm going to play!" James shouted firmly.

"The first quarter is over with less than two minutes left, I need you to ......"

"I have to play, Eric!"

Spoelstra shook his head and motioned for James to go to the tech desk to prepare. On the field, Nick. One of Young's breakthroughs was violated by Anderson "Birdman". Taking advantage of this dead ball, James jumped to his feet and stepped back onto the court.

"LeBron is desperate." Nowitzki, who was sitting next to Yiyang, couldn't help but clench his fists as he watched James, who had just gone down not long ago, appear again. The extreme of individual heroism may not be so easy to beat.

After James came on the court, he immediately helped the Heat stabilize the situation. Nick. After Yang met a real superstar, he immediately revealed his true form.

Thanks to James' efforts with passing and shooting, the Heat narrowed the gap to four points before the end of the first quarter. James had 8 points and 3 assists in a single quarter, and the points from his hands accounted for half of the Heat's total points in the first quarter!

James's hard work made Wade and Bosh feel very uncomfortable. In fact, in this current Heat team, except for James, the desire to create a three-in-a-row championship is not strong.

Playing such high-intensity games every year, they are tired and tired of it.

Wade dragged his scarred knee and just wanted to end the season as quickly as possible. It's better to win the title, but he won't be too sad not to win. What about Bosh and Spoelstra? They are already very complacent about their ability to reach the finals for the fourth year in a row.

This is also the reason why James always likes to fight alone, if you don't join me, I must also fight for a championship!

Not everyone is James, forever hungry for a championship. Of course, not everyone is James, who has a body of steel, and can make his belief so strong that he can play until the last minute every season......

Despite this, Wade and Bosh still couldn't bear to watch James fight like this alone. So in the second quarter of the game, the other two giants of the Heat finally began to play.

"LeBron broke through the middle, Dirk and Gobert both rushed at LeBron, and he couldn't escape death! Divide the ball!? Instead of a layup, LeBron opted to break through the ball. Chris. Bosh hit a shot from a mid-range position, a beautiful fit, and the Heat's offense seems to be improving! ”

"LeBron is out of the box, will Wade choose to pass!? No, he forced his breakthrough! Dwayne leans against Tony. Allen went straight to the basket and the referee blew for a defensive foul on Toney. Oh! The ball actually went in, and Dwayne's shot was actually scored! Hit a three-pointer, and the Heat got a chance to hit a three-pointer! ”

In the second quarter of the game, the situation on the court changed abruptly. The Heat suddenly became stronger, with Wade and Bosh making a series of contributions that put Carlisle's desire to pull away from the score.

As a result, the Heat, who were surviving in a desperate situation, were stunned to equalize the score into the second half.

In the first half of the game, the Heat's big three all scored double-doubles, James 13 points, Wade 12 points, and Bosh 10 points and 7 rebounds. On the Mavericks' side, there were also three people who scored in double figures. Yiyang and Dirk scored 15 and 11 points respectively, and Nick came off the bench. Yang also had 12 points on the account.

At half-time, Carlisle wiped the sweat from his forehead and squatted in front of the players with a tactical board.

"Damn, why is it so hot!" Carlisle loosened his bow tie, and the cool breeze that penetrated his clothes made him feel much more comfortable.

"In the second half, Nick, I want you to play the second position, and after you get on the court, you only have one task, score!" Carlisle didn't want to be a big drain on the Heat, he needed to score, so he needed to switch to a scorer.

"Tony, you take a break. At the critical moment, we have to rely on defense to lock the opponent! ”

"No problem, boss, I'll be at your disposal." Tony. Allen is not the kind of player who likes to be emotional, and he doesn't think much about Carlisle suddenly taking him down for a valid reason.

"So, also, in the second half, I want you to defend Dwayne. Limit his play, as long as Bosh and Dwayne drop the chain, LeBron will have no support available! "Tony. Aaron, Caral turned to look at Yiyang again. Nick. Yang can only attack, not defend. So the task of defending Wade naturally fell on Yiyang's shoulders.

Yiyang rubbed his hands, did he stand against Wade? He's been waiting for a long time!

Carlisle continued to lay out his tactics, and the temperature in the dressing room continued to rise. The players sweated even when they were just sitting in their positions.

At first, Yiyang thought it was his own psychological effect. After all, the game was very intense, and it was still a draw at half time, so it was normal to feel hot.

But it wasn't until the staff in the arena at the American Route Center pushed the door in that the players knew it wasn't psychological.

"What did you say!?" Carlisle asked incredulously.

"The air conditioning system is broken, it is being repaired, and now the whole stadium is surrounded by 32°C heat! Mr. Cuban, let me remind you to stay hydrated. The staff repeated it again, no wonder it was so hot, it turned out that the air conditioner was broken!

Carlisle was silent for a second, then nodded slightly. "yes, I see."

Then, the coach looked up, he didn't care about the sweat on his forehead, and his eyes became extremely determined. "The heat is not pleasant."

The players nodded their heads.

"The Heat don't feel good either! Also, in the second half, the focus was on the defensive end, and I want you to lock Dwayne and lock him up like Lillard! Carlisle waved his hand and changed his tactical thinking. His defensive rating against Wade has changed from a limit to a lock! The difference between this is not a star.

"In such a hot situation, if LeBron can only fight alone, then he will not last long! Half is over, it's time to find out! Carlisle's eyes were hideous, Spoelstra didn't want to win the championship, he Carlisle was very hungry!

Yiyang didn't speak, but remembered Wade's legs that were wrapped in thick armor.

I'm sorry old friend, in the next game, I only have to kill the killer!
