Chapter 228: See Sweep Again

Zhang Xiaotian's efforts are not only on the defensive end, he also shows determination on the offensive end.

He is no longer the small character he started with, and he can't play without skills.

Now even if he doesn't activate the skill, he is determined to entangle Joe Johnson to death.

Ray Allen didn't feel well, Joe Johnson didn't go down to rest, and Zhang Xiaotian followed.

The Heat are already desperate, and Spoelstra doesn't want to fall short.

Losing that breath may be fine in this series, but it can have a psychological impact later on.

They want to win, no matter how hard the other party fights, they have to be able to win.

The Big Three and Zhang Xiaotian all extended their playing time and entered hand-to-hand combat with the Nets.

The shooter was inaccurate, and Bosh stepped up and hit back-to-back three-pointers from the outside.

With the efforts of all the players, they blocked the Nets' desperate offense and kept the score gap in single digits.

The game entered the fourth quarter, and after a break, the Nets players only felt that they could not lift their energy.

They fight too slowly, and when they stop for a while, their bodies are out of control.

Delon used the cover to rush in and could have made a layup, but he lost a breath and missed.

The Heat overtook him, and Zhang Xiaotian hit a three-pointer when he received it.

The Nets are on the verge of a big enemy, but their bench offense and defense are unbalanced, and the main force can't support it.

Even Garnett, who has played the least amount of time, is extremely tired, and Wade is a little unable to support it on the Heat's side, but James, Bosh and Zhang Xiaotian are still in good spirits.

After Zhang Xiaotian, James and Bosh hit one after another, and the score was close at once.

After less than three minutes of rest, the Nets could only replace all the main players.

The Heat's players don't rest, and they can't stand up to the bench at all.

Kidd was depressed on the sidelines, who was already on the edge of the cliff, and the Heat were so desperate to sweep it, it was really a bit faceless.

But this is competitive sports, and there is no way to beat it.

He can only cheer the players loudly, grit his teeth again, and even if he can't play the next game, he will fight for the next one.

But it is clear that only Joe Johnson can still be impressed, and Pierce, who was physically unmatched in the early years, can only rely on one breath to hold on, and James can't pull James on the defensive end.

There is no way, it is not okay not to accept the old, he is seven years older than James.

But Joe Johnson burst out with all his energy, although Zhang Xiaotian tightened up his defense and his efficiency decreased.

When Joe Johnson put all his attention on Zhang Xiaotian, he also found Zhang Xiaotian's weak point, he strengthened his footwork, he has the height of a striker, but he has the footsteps of a defender.

Relying on the lead ahead and Joe Johnson's outburst, the Nets are still in a stalemate with the Heat.

In the end, it's not a question of strength or weakness, maybe just one round of offense and defense can determine the outcome of the victory.

The Heat have not adjusted the lineup, Wade can't rush up and play the No. 1 position, plus Ray Allen to form the backcourt.

Even if they don't allow it now, the Nets don't dare to really be unprepared.

Both sides were waiting for an opportunity, only the Heat were more at ease, and they still had enough energy to continue to expend until the very end.

At 2:48, James hit from beyond the three-point line and the two teams were tied.

This is a big blow to the Nets, and they can't do it all before they let James shoot.

Although it was a draw, it was the result of their best efforts to hold on to the lead.

Their morale is declining, and their bodies are getting more tired.

"I can't do that, I can't just walk out of the playoffs." Joe Johnson was sweating profusely and roaring fiercely in his heart.

Not to sweep is the last dignity of their group of famous players.

It's not so easy to form a giant lineup, otherwise more than a few teams will succeed.

Zhang Xiaotian's defense has become more and more difficult for him to break through, and he is unwilling.

Joe Johnson made a rare back-punch gesture, then quickly turned around to squeeze in, but immediately stepped back and pulled up after unsuccessful.

But this series of actions did not deceive Zhang Xiaotian, and Zhang Xiaotian's palm still sealed the opponent's shooting line.

When, it's iron again, Joe Johnson's heart is cold.

Striking iron can't shake him, but this is the most critical moment, and if he doesn't hit the heat, things will be big.

James rushed in and was blocked, and Ray Allen didn't have a chance to make a move.

The ball turned into Zhang Xiaotian's hand, and Zhang Xiaotian turned around and made a back hit posture.

Joe Johnson wiped his sweat and he wouldn't let Zhang Xiaotian hit him in front of him.

Zhang Xiaotian's shoulders moved slightly, as if he wanted to turn around, but he didn't, but directly exerted force.

It was really sitting and grinding inside, and Livingston saw that it was not good, so he was about to come and attack, but it was too late.

Joe Johnson felt that Zhang Xiaotian was as domineering as a big man on the inside at this moment, he thought he could block it, but after forty minutes of fighting, his body was not able to resist as he imagined.

Zhang Xiaotian directly crushed to the edge of the small penalty area, a small hook hand that is not commonly used.

The basketball went into the net, and the group of people in the Nets froze.

Kidd shouted from the field, and they opted for a timeout.

They have a myriad of tactics to face the current situation, but in reality they are no longer able to beat them.

On the bench, that's impossible, Kidd is still the new coach, he doesn't have such courage.

Moreover, there is no ruthless character on the Nets bench who can be decided.

One can only expect Joe Johnson to hit key shots, and one can only hope that Pierce can have a flash of inspiration.

However, there are no miracles in front of a team of Heat's level.

Pierce fought hard to be blocked by James, Joe Johnson was interfered with by Zhang Xiaotian again from the three-point line, and at the last moment, the Nets were hard to find.

The Heat were completely different, James caused a foul on the counterattack, and Ray Allen, who had not moved for a long time, hit a deadly three-pointer.

Joe Johnson finally hit a three-pointer on his third shot, but then Zhang Xiaotian also hit a three-point shot from beyond the three-point line.

Pierce hit another three-pointer with 11 seconds left and the Nets trailing by five points.

Their players have not seen victory at all, and are just subconsciously following tactical fouls.

James hit one of two free throws, but it didn't matter.

100:94, in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the Heat still swept 4:0.

"Kudos to the Heat," Nets coach Kidd was a little frustrated, "they were very aggressive in the fourth quarter, and of course we were aggressive, both teams were strong, but they played tactics and hit shots, and we didn't." ”

"When we started preparing for the first day, we said that the most important thing in the series, above all else, was to have good mental stability." Heat head coach Spoelstra was in high spirits, "That's what we did in key moments, incredible focus. ”
