After 2784 days, he once again got 40+.

Today, the roses bloomed again, tears spilled down the field.

He cried, and the man didn't flick his tears, but he didn't get to the sad place.

Don't underestimate him because of tears, if you have experienced what he has experienced, from being young and frivolous, high and suddenly falling to the mortal world, or even almost having no ball to play, standing high and falling painfully, you may have already collapsed.

And he, who has been defeated countless times, has never been defeated!

……

The Cavaliers attacked, and Big Z once again faced Woods and forced a shot.

Bang!

The ball didn't go in again, and the Heat immediately launched a fast break and scored another goal.

6：0。

The Heat scored 6 points in a row, while the Cavaliers started the game with 0 points so far, and the situation is not good.

Originally, Big Z was the winning point of the Cavaliers, and the Heat couldn't turn over.

But now, Big Z has become a life-booster.

Whenever he misses a shot, the Heat seize the opportunity to play a fast break. The Heat's six points so far have come from quick counter-attack scoring.

Honk!

Coach Paul didn't dare to wait any longer and immediately called a timeout.

"Hey, Il, fight firmly. Don't fight against Woods, you have to use your feet and experience to fight him, that's your advantage. ”

"Also, everybody run for me, switch between attack and defense a little bit faster, and don't let the opponent take advantage of this opportunity to score again."

"Come on! Come on! Come on! With one more win, we're 3-0 and we're not far from winning. ”

Paul focused on encouraging everyone, making some small adjustments, to the point that he did not change his tactics, and still used Big Z as the core of the attack.

But for some reason, Ye Feng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.

At this time, if you work against the head coach, not to mention that the head coach will not listen to you, it will also affect the atmosphere of the team, which is absolutely beneficial and harmless.

At the end of the timeout, the Cavaliers players were obviously fighting harder, especially the tallest big Z.

He was very tough in attack and ran with all his might in defence.

However, Woods on the opposite side is more desperate than Big Z, obviously suffering from both technology and experience, but relying on enthusiasm and momentum to make Big Z extremely uncomfortable.

The Cavaliers broke their scoring drought, but still couldn't close the score.

Six minutes, at 17:10, the Cavaliers trailed by seven points in the first quarter.

To make matters worse, after a defense, Big Z rested for a full 3 seconds with his head crossed before he got up and ran to the front.

Ye Feng's eyelids jumped, and his heart suddenly became nervous.

"Il, are you okay?"

Ye Feng asked as he ran past Big Z.

"It's fine."

Big Z replied, but there was a sense of reluctance in his tone.

Ye Feng took a closer look, and Da Z's forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of soybeans, densely packed.

It's okay for athletes to sweat, it's not normal to not sweat. But oozing such a big bead of sweat, the amount of sweat is far more than usual, this is abnormal.

In addition to this, Big Z's face is red, his lips are white, and his feet are raised very low when he runs.

This feeling is fatigue!

Of course, Ye Feng is just guessing, not sure.

But soon, Big Z made a mistake under Woods' strict defense and was robbed of the ball, which made Ye Feng confirm his guess.

Big Z is definitely tired.

But this game has only been played for 6 or 7 minutes, how can Big Z be tired like this?

didn't have time to think about it, the Heat launched a defensive counterattack again, and Ye Feng defended with all his might.

Fortunately, this time Odom buttered his hand, jumped out of the frame for a layup, and didn't go in.

Ye Feng slowly dribbled the ball and slowed down the rhythm.

Looking around the audience, when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Pat Riley, Ye Feng was shocked. Don't......

In the first two games, Riley arranged for Butler and Odom to desperately wrap up Big Z and create trouble for Big Z.

And this time, it was Lauren Woods, the wonder soldier, who desperately fought with Big Z and consumed Big Z's physical strength.

Originally, even if Big Z fought so hard, he wouldn't be tired after playing for so long.

But he played nearly 40 minutes in the first game, and almost the whole game in the second, far exceeding his average playing time per game.

And in these two games, Big Z is the core of the offense, and the consumption is naturally large.

After all, it is common sense that the leader consumes more physical strength than the one who follows.

For a big man like Big Z, his physical strength will not be good, and he has been playing for so long in a row, coupled with the fact that he ran fast with the rhythm of the Heat and disrupted his rhythm before, it is not incomprehensible that Big Z is in a fatigue predicament.

In this matter, Paul has a certain responsibility, and Ye Feng is also responsible.

As the head coach, Paul failed to arrange Big Z's playing time reasonably, allowing Big Z to play for too long and taking on too much responsibility.

And Ye Feng, as an organizational guard, failed to control the rhythm of the team, and the Cavaliers have been running around with the rhythm of the Heat, and lost their rhythm, which is Ye Feng's fault.

But after thinking about it again, Ye Feng had some ideas, but he wasn't sure.

The first two wars of attrition, and the third surprise against Big Z, will this be made by Pat Riley.

If it was, it would be terrible.

Riley knew that the strength of the Heat was not as good as the Cavaliers, and the rationality of the lineup was not as good as the Cavaliers, and they would definitely suffer if they fought hard, so they came up with the idea of a war of attrition.

How bold it must be to use two defeats to win a glimmer of life!

After all, there are only 7 games in one round, and if you lose one after two defeats, it will be the match point, and it will be very difficult to turn the tables.

If Riley is really so calculated, it will be terrible, it is simply Zhuge Liang of the NBA league, a god operator.

It's not impossible.

Thinking about the first two Heat losses, Riley was uncharacteristically breezy and seemed to be very suspicious.

Looking back now, it's nothing.

I didn't plan to win the first two games, so of course I didn't care.

At this moment, Ye Feng didn't have time to think so much, after all, the game was still going on.

"Big Z, take a break?"

Ye Feng asked tentatively.

Ye Feng ran behind Da Z, and he could see that Da Z's neck was covered with beads of sweat the size of soybeans, and the amount of sweat was abnormal.

And his steps were equally heavy, and he felt a little unable to run, which made Ye Feng feel worried.

"I'm fine, I still have to clean up that little guy from the Heat team, dare to be tough with me, I'm afraid he won't succeed?"

Big Z refused, and it was crisp.

He was a bit of a head, presumably irritated by Lauren Woods.

After all, stars want to save face, and Big Z, an All-Star, has been suppressed by a marginal player like Woods, and he feels good about it.

In just a few minutes before, Big Z was forced by Woods to make 2 turnovers, 1 steal, and 1 block, and he definitely wanted to get back on the field.

Ye Feng hesitated in his heart, and finally decided not to listen to Da Z.
