Chapter 163: No Way Back

Wade only rested for 1 minute in the second half, and in the crucial fourth quarter, Lehi certainly wouldn't let Wade play so comfortably. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Wade came on, Lehi was also substituted at the same time.

After Lee Hai played, he defended Wade closely, causing as much disruption as possible.

He can't completely limit Wade, but he can make Wade play less comfortably, and after a lot of confrontations with him, the shooting percentage will inevitably be reflected.

Lehi has put a lot of effort into defense, Artest, Bowen, Kobe Bryant and other people's defensive videos, he specially asked the team's staff in charge of the video to give him a few copies, and after constantly figuring it out and being familiar with the position, his defense has been improving.

Although it has always been a cowhide plaster when there is no ball, and when the opponent holds the ball, he chooses to cling to it or put half a step to interfere with it with his long arm, but in terms of handling the details, Lehi has done a better job.

After Wade holds the ball, Lehi will definitely have to take half a step, there is no way to have an advantage in physical fitness, in addition, his reaction speed and the range that can interfere, Wade will definitely be more uncomfortable than when he faced Jackson in the first round.

Wade's single-minded breakthrough is good to say, if it is a mid-shot, Lehi's interference ability is not covered.

After Wade was interfered with twice, he immediately strengthened the breakthrough, and his adjustment ability is much more mature than the average young player.

After O'Neal came up, the Heat also tried to attack the interior.

At this time, Eddie Curry had not yet come up, and several fouls by the Pole made the Heat weaken the idea of attacking the interior, because O'Neal made several free throws that were not ideal, and the Knicks took the opportunity to stabilize the lead.

The Heat is also a little hesitant about how to defend Lehi, Wade is good defensively, but his height suffers, and he can't consume much physical strength on the defensive end at critical moments, and if O'Neal is in trouble, the Heat's offense depends on him.

They didn't have a better way for the time being, but Posey and Walker were swapped.

When it comes to the final crunch moment, the Heat will definitely need Antoine Walker, who is more dangerous on the offensive end, and the only change they have from the starter is to keep Gary Payton on the court at the No. 1 position, and Payton's rich playoff experience and solid defense can reassure the Heat.

In this regard, the Knicks are going to be handed over to Francis, Payton is already an old man on the court, and since the Heat let him stay on the court, the Knicks will rush over this.

At 3:58, Francis drew a foul on Payton and hit a free throw to give the Knicks a six-point lead, and then O'Neal was fouled on a shot, and the gap became five points after making one of two free throws.

Lehi didn't miss the opportunity to extend his advantage, breaking through Walker head-on and hitting a throw.

At 2:36, Wade caused a foul on Lehi and chased the score to just five points.

Next, the Knicks played a perfect match, Marbury played with the ball, Lehi went to the 45-degree position to cover Francis, Francis received the ball and broke through, and the Heat's defensive rotation immediately had problems, and Lehi took the opportunity to cut inside to the baseline to catch the ball and hit 2 points.

After Antoine Walker missed a three-point attempt, the clock was 1:32.

The Heat defended half the offense and then began foul play, and Lehi hit four free throws in a row to settle the game.

At 100:92, the Knicks tied the total score at 2:2.

Wade scored 33 points in this game, and Lehi also scored 33 points in the face of heavier defensive tasks, and his efforts were seen by his teammates, and the playoffs are a time to increase team cohesion, and the Knicks' already good team atmosphere is getting better and better.

At this point, whoever gets the match point first will definitely be even more imposing.

Although Game 5 was the home of the Heat, the Knicks were well prepared.

However, they encountered a different situation than before, O'Neal played an efficient offense from the beginning, and Wade assisted his teammates several times, allowing the Heat's role players to play the best game of the second round.

This is something that the Knicks couldn't have predicted, and no one can stop the role players from collectively exerting their might.

In fact, this offensive Knicks played very well, but they still lost, which was a little discouraged.

The Heat took the lead at the match point, and the Knicks were pushed to the edge of the cliff.

Xia Weiliang has already finished his school papers, officially graduated from college, and has been by Li Hai's side all the time in the playoffs, like Li Hai's agent.

It is with the companionship of his girlfriend and family that Lehi can always maintain his confidence.

Li Hai's official agent, the fat man, originally wanted to follow his side to do chores, but the company's affairs are now at a critical stage, so he was called by Li Hai to do things.

The fat man is much more reliable than when he was in school, but he knows very well that Li Hai is the key to making a fortune, and not long after becoming Li Hai's agent, he got a good endorsement, which is much higher than the income of his classmates who went out of school together, and it also makes him very energetic.

There was nothing to bother Lehi outside of the arena, so he could put his full mind on the game.

Back in Game 6 in New York, the Knicks couldn't afford to lose anymore.

The Heat have already made a statement to end Game 6.

But this kind of thing can only be taken seriously, and if you can't do it, you will be slapped in the face, just like the Pistons who shouted that they were slapped in the face by the Cavaliers after five games.

'We're not going to be out, home or away.'

Lehi spoke in a firm tone when he was interviewed, and it was time for him to put enough pressure on them.

If you want to stabilize the team's morale at such a critical moment, you must start well.

After five big games, players who are not physically good will feel obvious depletion, and Lehi feels that O'Neal will definitely not be able to hold on for that long, and he can no longer play a strong and dominant game.

But at the start of Game 6, O'Neal hit the Heat's first shot.

And this big guy doesn't seem to be afraid of fatigue, and he starts to play ruthlessly in the first quarter.

Lehi didn't think he had guessed wrong, O'Neal was playing so hard to help the Heat quickly establish an advantage, and he probably didn't have the confidence to wait until the second half to make a difference.

However, if the Heat really establish a lead, then no matter what O'Neal will play in the second half, the Knicks will be in danger.

If you start, you can't let the opponent take the lead.

Lehi stabilized his eagerness, pretended to slip the baseline, ran back to the three-point line, and received Marbury's pass and hit a three-point shot.

He has a raging fighting spirit in his eyes, and the game must not end on the Knicks' turf.

In the Heat's offense, he suddenly squeezed Walker's side with force, cut off the Heat's pass, ran at full speed, dunked vigorously, and Lehi drowned the Heat in the cheers of Madison Square Garden. (To be continued.) )
