Chapter 338: Buckles
82-75, James just got off the break less than two minutes ago, and the point difference widened to the highest peak in the game to the present.
So to say that at this stage, the Heat is a strengthened version of the Cavaliers completely dominated by James, but it is also in the past. He, LeBron James, has been a superstar with his own system from the moment he entered the league.
Sometimes it's a good thing to have your own system, and sometimes it's helpless.
Especially when Wade's combat power is damaged, and the Heat team can't threaten the 76ers with the ball in an instant after James is off the court, such a wave of events will always occur.
Frightened, Spoelstra quickly called a timeout, and took advantage of this timeout to put James back on the court.
James is really tired, more tired than when he singled out the Celtics when he was a Cavaliers.
Tang Wenlong stepped on broken steps, gracefully and dexterously ran back to cut the basket, exactly the same as the tactical position that Butler ran just now. It's just that because Tang Wenlong is running, the eyes of two players in the heat were instantly attracted.
Ray Allen went out of the three-point line, Billups split the ball, and the man arrived at the ball.
Three-point shooting, hit!
85-75, while the Heat's offense was dumb, the 76ers hit one after another, which was a fatal scene, and the hearts of Miami fans were dripping blood.
Then in the offensive and defensive rotation, James was like a mad lion, rose to his strength, violently crashed away from Jimmy Butler, who was defending him, and hit a layup with a low left hand. 85-77 with 6 minutes and 11 seconds left.
Then the 76ers missed two waves of offense, Haslem threw in mid-range, and Collins called a timeout.
After this wave of timeouts, Collins replaced the somewhat breathless Billups, replaced Lowry again, then replaced Butler with Iguodala, replaced Whiteside with Marc Gasol, and left Ray Allen on the field, still a big four small lineup, stronger than the previous lineup.
Sometimes, the value of the interior is not only in rebounding and defense, but also in the ability to card people and execute tactics.
The biggest gap between Gasol Jr. and Whiteside is that Gasol Jr., whose body is extremely wide laterally, can easily block the opponent for the defender and obstruct the opponent's vision, while Whiteside's blocking and dismantling is not even as good as Tang Wenlong's execution, and he needs to build muscle.
For example, this time, Gasol Jr. went down after covering Lowry, and after a simple block, Chalmers was out of position, and in order to fill the position, Bosh went to block Lowry.
There was a defensive gap in that moment, and after Lowry hit the ball, Gasol Jr. received the ball unguarded.
The mid-range position is also where he can shoot the ball most accurately, and with a gentle flick of his fingers, the basketball obediently falls into the basket.
87-79, the 76ers led by eight points.
James attacks with the ball, controls the ball with his right hand at the top of the arc, and swipes his left hand to the left to command, signaling his teammates to open up space.
He commanded Bosh and Wade to play a cross-run without the ball, Wade walked through Haslem without the ball and pocketed out, Tang Wenlong did not defend Wade's three-pointer, a little far away.
James almost gritted his teeth and pressed the desire to pass, and then faced the defensive Iguodala and silently waited for Bosh to block and arrive.
Bosh's pick-and-roll didn't work well, but it helped James, who was sticking to him, to delay Iguodala a little.
James had a little room to start, and suddenly he burst out and accelerated, crashed into Gasol Jr.'s body, and then accelerated at a constant pace, and plunged into the depths of the 76ers' interior line.
Tang Wenlong was like a ghost, silently approaching, shrinking to assist in defense.
James's overall view is so good, almost the moment Tang Wenlong approached, he made a judgment and choice, and handed a clever through ball to Wade, who was transferred to the other side.
At this time, Tang Wenlong turned his focus to pounce on Wade, and Wade took advantage of the time difference to pass Tang Wenlong.
The 76ers rotated to defend, Tang Wenlong immediately went to fill James's position as soon as he turned around, and after Wade entered the interior, he entangled Iguodala's body to break through, and gritted his teeth under the basket and stood up.
In the confusion, the basketball was thrown into the air, and the two men fell off the court together.
The referee hesitated and blew a defensive foul on Iguodala, a decision that was obviously extremely unfavorable to the 76ers, and Iguodala had four fouls on his back and reached a critical point all at once.
Tang Wenlong pulled Iguodala up from the ground, glanced at Wade, who was lying on the ground on the side, with beads of sweat on his head, and saw that he was pale and his facial muscles were slightly distorted, and he didn't know what to feel in his heart.
"I'm going to switch to LeBron, if you carry another foul, it won't be easy to play next." Tang Wenlong and Iguodala whispered.
Iguodala nodded, but he didn't recklessly, he just said with an instruction: "Be careful yourself, James is in full force now, and it is difficult to defend." ”
Then Wade walked to the free throw line with difficulty, the fans couldn't see how painful he was, only he knew that the slightly trembling knees were almost to the limit, and he didn't feel strong at all.
The first free throw was missed, and some irrational Heat fans scolded and felt that Wade's game was really bad.
And Wade's data on the book is naturally not good, only 3 of 14 shots, including 0 of 3 three-pointers, only 14 points and 4 rebounds, looking more like a role player who plays out of order than a superstar.
The second free throw was hit, and Wade gave his teammates a high-five with a solemn face, and quickly retreated. 87 to 80.
At this time, every attack is crucial, Tang Wenlong signaled to let Lowry control the ball from the outside, and the time passed minute by minute, and the time entered the last 4 minutes.
In 14 seconds, Tang Wenlong came out to catch the ball outside the three-point line, holding the ball in both hands and threatening it three, and James defended.
The two of them went directly to the outside one-on-one, and the 76ers had no intention of coming to block Tang Wenlong, everyone opened half of the court, and the other players of the Heat team were eager to try and cover Tang Wenlong at any time.
Tang Wenlong looked up at the basket, and then his eyelids drooped, like a drunkard who hadn't woken up.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, dribbled to the right with his right hand, and his big stride exploded instantly, and it was impossible to describe how fast this step was.
He dribbled the ball, and then his body shifted and followed!
James's pupils dilated instantly, and Tang Wenlong suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes.
"It's too fast!"
At this stage of James' huge physical exertion, Tang Wenlong also broke out this kind of super speed, and James couldn't keep up at all, so he could only subconsciously follow Tang Wenlong's movements and make defensive predictions.
Small steps moved, and Tang Wenlong could not stop suddenly in such a high-speed process, as soon as he leaned over, he was like a predatory cheetah, and the muscle lines of his body were so smooth.
"Smack!"
The basketball bounced off the floor, Tang Wenlong took it in his hand, the breeze blew the bangs in front of his forehead, and his bright eyes were like the basketball boys who practiced on the field in the summer.
He let out a loud cry and stepped on the floor and flew high, and James gritted his teeth and flew sideways with him.
Tang Wenlong held the basketball with his long arm, it seemed to be a layup, but it didn't seem to be a layup, and after gliding in the air for a distance, he suddenly came backhanded, grabbed the basketball with his big hand, and waved it rapidly.
Just dodged the big black hand that swept over at this time.
Then there was a "clang" and the basketball was smashed into the hoop.
Tang Wenlong flew to the ground, slid to the ground a little unsteadily, and fell into the photographer's pile by inertia, and there was a gasp on the court.
The fans stayed in their seats in a daze, unconsciously opening their mouths wide, as if their necks were choked, and they couldn't make any sound.
The next moment, the audience erupted in super cheers that were enough to overturn the entire Philadelphia!
Buckle LeBron?! Oh my God, it's going crazy! (To be continued.) )
