Chapter 346: The Capture of the American Airlines Center

"Brothers, we have been cornered, if we still want to advance, then we can't lose this game again!" Wade started to mobilize before the start of the fourth quarter, and although the Heat players responded one after another, they were not too active, and it was obvious that this temporary mobilization line was not too inflammatory. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Emperor Wu would have snickered when he saw this scene, he spent money outside to invite the navy army to praise how great his pre-game speeches were, and then a bunch of brainless fans immediately praised him to the sky, and finally everyone thought that he was born with a leadership spirit and so on...... But in fact, he even asked someone to write the scripts of his speeches, so how could he have time to get these things.

In college, he did have a few pre-game speeches that were indeed his own handwriting, but that was also secretly checked on the Internet in advance, and then copied and copied it, and really asked him to write a Martin Luther speech, which was too difficult for him, he was a basketball player!

At this moment, the Knicks don't need to speak, Wu Huang just held hands with the players and encouraged his teammates: "It's the fourth quarter in a while, as long as we do our best every second in the next second, the final result will be what we want, now let them see the results of our hard work for a season!" ”

Wu Huang's mobilization is also the same as that of a horse, but now that the Knicks have the upper hand, Wu Huang will even say "It's decided that it's you - Pikachu", and the Knicks players will still shout together, and their morale will double.

Instead of mobilizing like this, Wade might as well take the lead in scolding Wu Huang with his teammates, which has a high chance of resonating with the Heat players, and it will boost the team's morale if he is not careful. Especially James's hatred for Wu Huang at the moment is almost full, as long as the gorilla enters the crazy offensive mode, the Heat still has a play, after all, they are only 6 points behind.

But I have to say that the Heat defense is really bad, they did their best in the first three games, and the defensive focus was also on Wu Huang, but Wu Huang had no solution, and every time he scored was a knife on the Heat. But this doesn't mean that the Heat don't need to defend Wu Huang, although Wade's effect of changing defenses is average, but at least it is much better than the defensive effect of Chalmers and Bibby, and even better than the effect of the two-person package. If there is really no one available, it is better to limit Wu Huang with all his strength at the cost of halving Wade's threat on the offensive end, or even simply use Wade to play point guard.

But Spoelstra also has his own concerns, and he does have plans to let Wade play the No. 1 position, but considering that this will limit his scoring ability and will also lead to some unpredictable problems with the ball, it will be difficult to make up his mind.

If Wade plays point guard, it is difficult to say whether he will reduce the ball to James, the Heat has just figured out the distribution of the ball, and rashly changing the position of the two is likely to produce a series of unpredictable chain reactions in a short period of time, and the playoffs are not a joke, Spoelstra naturally will not casually make this kind of change of formation that goes wrong "pot" is all on his back, and he also has to think about his own job.

Wu Huang continued to play in the fourth quarter, and the mustache was looking for an opportunity to rest for three or four minutes at the end of the third quarter in this series, and it was the same today.

Jeff Van Gundy commented on Wu Huang, saying: "Many retired celebrities and professional media people will mention passing awareness and overall vision when commenting on Hugo's strengths, but the most valuable thing is his 'creativity', which is the most important indicator of a player's talent, because it cannot be increased through experience, while awareness and overall view can be improved through a lot of experience." ”

Mark Jackson said: "Creativity isn't just useful on the basketball court, it's even more useful on the football field, all the big midfielders in football are creative geniuses, and of course it's the same on the basketball court, you have to make passes that the defenders don't expect, and Hugo has always done a good job of that. ”

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Wu Huang made a realistic "ground pass" feint after blocking and dismantling with Monroe. Bibi is also experienced, but he was still deceived into believing it, and as soon as he shifted his gaze, he found that Wu Huang didn't pass the ball at all, and the basketball bounced back into his hand, Wu Huang continued to kill under the basket without slowing down.

Among the Heat players, it was not only Bibby who was deceived, but also Mageloyle, who defended Monroe, was also deceived, Monroe took advantage of his action to shake off the defense and hit the basket, Wu Huang only then really passed the ball out, and easily assisted Monroe to dunk violently.

Wu Huang learned this trick from Chris Paul, who didn't have so many tricks before he was injured last season, but after the start of this season, there were many more passing feints, combined with his historic ball sense, Wu Huang was always fooled by his various feints. So after the game, he learned all these commotion moves that were difficult for him to deal with from the video, he was no worse than Paul in terms of ball sense talent, and he could learn Paul's skills in theory, Wu Huang only lacked the accumulation of skills and experience compared to Paul, and whether these actions were suitable for him.

Monroe's goal hit the Heat players high because they were tricked but couldn't fight back. Wade rested off the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and the Heat's rotation was to replace James at the end of the third quarter and Wade at the beginning of the fourth quarter, so during this time, the Heat only had Bosh and James on the court.

When the Knicks were only Bosh and James on the floor, they naturally focused their defense on James, and Bosh let the blue-collar workers do it themselves, even if they couldn't do it, it would make it difficult for Bosh to get a comfortable shot, which the Knicks' interior blue-collar workers are still capable of doing.

James tried another three-pointer on the offensive end, but missed this time, which seemed to prove that he didn't feel good.

Heat fans then saw a scene they didn't understand, James began to pass the ball to his teammates again, at most the meaning of the first burst, once the Knicks' bag came up, James would pass the ball immediately, but the shooting efficiency of the Heat players was not high.

Knicks players aren't slow to help defend at certain times. This is mainly to blame on the Heat themselves, they are not like the Spurs who can tear apart the opponent's defense by passing, usually after James passes the ball, the Heat players who receive the basketball do not have the ability to transfer the ball to the Knicks' defensive weak area again, this routine is not the style of play that the Heat are good at, they are all used to the way the giants create opportunities and shoot the basketball themselves. But now they don't have a catch-and-shoot opportunity, and the Knicks' first two rotations are very fast, which makes them more and more unsure of how to play.

Spoelstra said that he has no choice, it's not that he can't let the team play a tactical system of continuous passing, but their big three are good at individual offense, and the tactics of letting them play the Spurs are not tyrannical, and Pat Riley is sure to be the first to fire him.

"There still isn't a shooter who can run!" Spoelstra felt that the lack of a good scorer who was good at running off the ball was the key to passivity, and if there was a player like Ray Allen, the Zhan Wei duo's burst could have had an effect.

But far from quenching the thirst, Pat Riley had already expected that it would be difficult for the Heat to win the championship in the first season, this season in order to get the Big Three, they paid too much price in the summer, and next season is the real time for them to win the championship, don't see when you can only use the middle class, but as long as you can pull a few more veterans like O'Neal, the whole team will be very different.

James didn't take the initiative to attack, Bosh could only play on the inside, facing Monroe he scored the first 2 points of the quarter, and then blocked Gallinari's layup, and soon made another shot, Bosh relied on himself to help the Heat chase the difference to 5 points.

Wu Huang took out his big heart at the critical moment, hitting a three-pointer and a three-pointer, and re-widened the difference to 11 points. After Gallinari also hit a three-pointer, the Knicks took a 98-86 lead to 12 points.

Knicks fans breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that their core has no idea of swiping data, the previous two key shots could not have been more critical, and those six points almost buried the Heat's hope of a comeback.

However, before the idea fell, Knicks fans saw Wu Huang crashing into the door and grabbing a defensive rebound very fiercely!

"Okay, this still has to be brushed three pairs!" Knicks fans immediately felt that they were too naïve, if Wu Huang didn't brush the data, it must be that the triple-double had already been obtained.

After Wu Huang snatched the rebound from Monroe's head, he was still a little dissatisfied, he felt that this kid was a little unfamiliar, at this time, of course, he was helping himself block people and brush up the data, didn't he see that Reggie Evans over there didn't come to grab the rebound at all? This is the embodiment of lack of vision.

Fortunately, Monroe's understanding is still relatively high, and then he continued to help Wu Huang take the initiative to block people on the offensive end, and took out the spirit of going to the soup to help his boss brush three doubles.

"That's right!" With this kind of cooperation, Wu Huang quickly got the ninth rebound. Although most of today's rebounds are defensive rebounds, as long as he can make up double digits, he doesn't care what the gold content is, and he can get a triple-double on the premise of winning, which is the biggest gold content in itself.

Wu Huang's shameless behavior finally angered James, and the gorilla who was used to being invisible in the fourth quarter couldn't stand it anymore, and finally came up with the strength to fight for his life......

Starting from 5 minutes and 45 seconds in the fourth quarter, James used his suicidal breakthrough to cause the Knicks four fouls in the next two minutes, and also played a two-and-one, and the Heat scored almost alone in these two minutes, and the 12-point lead at the highest time was directly returned to 6 points by this wave of offense.

In the final stages of the game, the morale of the Heat players finally recovered under James's outburst, and the score was narrowed to 94-100, and the Knicks were again in need of someone to step up......

"Six points lead was enough, only three minutes to go, they couldn't catch up with us, and then we played a double stack." Wu Huang simply encouraged his teammates, dribbling and making tactical gestures.

The "double stacking" strategy is one of the common playing styles of teams that tend to shoot, and the default routine is that all players except the point guard are stacked on both sides of the penalty line before the strategy is executed, and when the strategy is executed, the role of the interior player is to provide offensive space for the shooter, that is, to act as an off-ball screen.

This set of tactics will naturally have to be changed when it comes to the Knicks, who will cover for whom is uncertain, the interior combination of the Knicks on the court is Xiao Si and Monroe, both of whom have good mid-range shooting, although the Knicks play this set of tactics Although the execution of this set of tactics is not good in the blocking link, there are too many players who can shoot after scattering, and it is also difficult to defend.

The Heat players are still very nervous when defending, and the difficulty of defending this tactic is that they can't miss anyone, so when the Knicks players dispersed, the Heat's defensive formation was obviously a little chaotic, although in the end, relying on the athleticism of the Big Three, they finally didn't really miss their defenders, but they forgot that Wu Huang's passing point was also aggressive, and even more threatening.

Chalmers became a sinner again, he ate Wu Huang's feints again at a critical moment, and his feet were wiped by Wu Huang in one step as soon as he slipped his foot, and at this moment there was not even a single figure in the Heat's restricted area, all the defenders were pulled outside, and Wu Huang easily scored two points with a layup after breaking through.

“ezpz!” After Wu Huang scored a goal, he spread his hands and made another hateful taunt.

The home fans could clearly see what he said from Wu Huang's mouth shape through the big screen at the scene, and the stadium was full of scolding from Heat fans for a while!

Wu Huang turned a deaf ear, and after the provocation, he took out a lazy look and walked back, if he didn't feel too naïve, he even wanted to jump back, which could stimulate the Heat players even more.

The Knicks' goal is a typical embodiment of personal ability, Wu Huang said that it is very safe to lead by 6 points before, in fact, he just opened his mouth and said nonsense, of course, 6 points is not safe, but now it is really safer to lead by 8 points, and this ball will bring more pressure to the Heat, this time it depends on whether anyone on the Heat side stands up and responds.

James stepped up, and then he passed the ball again...... Of course, he chose to pass this ball, and the Gorillas have attracted the bag of two defenders, and Bosh can get a chance to go head-to-head directly in the restricted area after receiving the basketball.

"Pass the ball quickly! Pass the ball quickly! Wu Huang chose to let Chalmers go to help defend Bosh, and his mouth was still dishonest, and he kept shouting at Bosh to pass the ball quickly.

Bosh couldn't hear Wu Huang's words clearly, and the cheers of the fans at the scene had drowned out most of the sound, but he saw the vacancy on the outside, but considering Chalmers' three-point shooting rate in the playoffs, the Dragon King hesitated for a moment and chose to beat Xiao Si.

"You go down for me!" Emperor Wu shouted from behind!

When Bosh watched the video after the game, he should have found that he should not hesitate, this hesitation gave Wu Huang the opportunity to jump up from behind to block, he obviously underestimated Wu Huang's speed and determination, the latter almost used an eighty percent foul action to block Bosh, the intention in his heart was to rather send him to the free throw line than let him shoot and score.

Bosh's finger injury in his right hand has improved, but it is still not as flexible as normal, the key is that the ball is not stable enough, although the rhythm flashed Xiao Si's block, but Wu Huang behind him seized the opportunity and slapped the ball down very savagely.

"It's not a foul?" After Wu Huang got off the basketball, he almost rode on Bosh, and directly knocked the poor dragon king into a stumble, and the basketball was naturally taken by Xiao Si.

But what made the fans booed wildly was that the referee didn't give Wu Huang a foul?!

This made Wu Huang a little incredulous, because he was going for a foul in this ball.

When the fans saw this scene, they naturally began to scold again. But through the big screen replay, although Wu Huang's ball was going to foul, but his final block was accurately slapped on the basketball, although the follow-up action of hitting Bosh was suspected of fouling, but Bosh did not jump high, so when Wu Huang's whereabouts almost rode on him, Bosh had already landed first, which did not constitute a violation of the rules of the cylinder.

The Knicks immediately launched a fast break when they got the basketball, Iguodala split and assisted Gallinari to complete a two-handed dunk, and Wu Huang's absence from participation did not affect the Knicks' fast-break threat at all.

"Big things go!" Spoelstra knew that the defeat was irretrievable, and from Game 2 onwards, they could no longer limit the Knicks' offense, and their offense was not as strong as the Knicks, and it would be difficult to win the game, even with home-court advantage.

Then the Heat relied on Zhan Wei's offense to chase the difference to only six points again, but time was running out, and D'Antoni took the opportunity to replace Monroe and replace Reggie Evans with a partner with Smalls to further consolidate the rebounding and defense under the basket.

Wu then calmed the situation with two free throws, and Joel Anthony was whistled for a first-degree foul for overacting in defence.

In the last two minutes of the game, Wade began to enter the mode of single-handedly challenging the Knicks, he scored 6 points on three consecutive shots, but the so-called two-fisted is difficult to beat four hands, the Knicks have always maintained a lead of more than 5 points, and Wu Huang also took time to get his tenth rebound, and finally got the second triple-double data of this year's playoffs.

Wade was still not willing to rest on his laurels, hitting a long-range three-pointer with 5.5 seconds left in the game to close the gap to three points.

D'Antoni glanced at the number of timeouts at the moment, the Heat didn't even have a short timeout, and the Knicks actually had a long timeout and a short timeout, which didn't seem to be a bit wasteful, but it was stupid to use it! At this time, of course, he will not take the initiative to call a timeout for the opponent, Wu Huang not only forced the Heat players to foul him with skillful ball control at the critical moment, but also consumed two seconds, and after hitting both free throws, the Heat once again saw no hope of winning.

The Heat no longer has a timeout, James didn't wait for the halfcourt to dribble to the midcourt after receiving the ball, but this time failed to create a miracle, the basketball flew directly off the court, and the Heat could only accept two consecutive defeats at home.

Speaking after the whistle, Jeff Van Gundy said: "After this fight, 'Miami' has no way back. The mission of sticking to the 'American Airlines Arena' was not completed, and the Knicks had fully grasped the initiative of this series after winning the match point away again, and the New Yorkers, who had three match points in hand, could get their tickets to the finals as soon as possible as long as they could complete the fatal blow at home. ”

Marco Jackson commented: "A more reasonable explanation for this series is that even if the Big Three score a magical performance of 87 points again, it can't change the reality that the Knicks' offense has left the Heat helpless. After four games, the Knicks averaged 110 points per game, while the Heat only allowed opponents to score 91 points per game in the first two rounds. ”

Jeff Van Gundy added: "The Heat's defense can't find a point, there is no one on the interior who can put enough pressure on rookies like Smalls and Monroe on the offensive end, Bosh and Haslem are eager to hide from the sidelines to shoot, Joel Anthony has no offensive ability at all, and the Heat's three interior players are all out of position on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and losses are inevitable." ”

Wu Huang didn't bother to give an interview after the game, although he was happy to win the game, but he wanted to get back to New York as soon as possible, so the answer after the game was mostly coping: "They caused us a lot of problems, but as you can see, we took those key attacks and had a few good defenses. But the opposition didn't seem to be fighting hard most of the time, and although we felt a bit of pressure from the late comeback, most of the time I felt like we played with ease. ”

Well, even if Emperor Wu didn't have the heart to be interviewed, such an answer still made people want to go up and beat him up!

Wu Huang scored 32 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists and 4 steals today, and his 16-point performance in the final quarter was like a hanging, which is why he can jump very much after the game.

The Big Three teamed up to contribute 87 points today, but the final result was another loss, which made Wu Huang receive more attention after the game.

Now the Knicks' 3-1 lead has also made the Heat's exit almost a foregone conclusion, and New York, which has three match points, has little chance of overturning in the next game, and this round of matchup is likely to end with an unexpected 4:1.

"Our strength is very strong, not the kind we say, it's really strong!" Wu Huang is still very uncooperative with the answer to the reason for his team's victory, which not only makes the Heat players feel that he is very disrespectful to him, but the Heat fans will also feel that he does not care about his team in the slightest.

But those who are familiar with Wu Huang know that this guy still fell into the well after the game and continued to use off-court trash talk to affect the Heat, which can only show that he is still not at ease in the fifth game. If he really doesn't take the heat seriously, he should just pick up good words at this moment, instead of using this method of ruining character + attracting hatred.

Wu Huang now just wants the whole Heat team, including the media, to focus on him, and it is best for everyone to ignore that Xiao Si has 22 points in the account today, Gallinari has 20 points, and even Monroe, a rookie, has 20 points......

If everyone really thinks that he killed the Big Three alone, then Wu Huang is very welcome to this result, first of all, his popularity will be further improved, and secondly, it will also make the Knicks players who were snubbed by the media more motivated to perform, and it will also make the Heat make a wrong judgment in the next game, which is likely to completely destroy their already weak hope of turning the tables.

"I'm the one who whips the corpse in CS!" After Wu Huang left the press conference, he secretly thought in his heart that this is his style, always focusing on the heart. (To be continued.) )
