Chapter 109: The Third Victory
The third quarter of the game was about to start, Wang Meng and others came out of the locker room, sat on the bench, watched the cheerleaders dance the field, but thought about how to win the game and complete the task at the same time.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Heat had the ball, and at this time the Lakers were on the court with a lineup of Fisher, Steve Black, Barnes, Odom, and Gasol, while the Heat had a lineup of Bibby, Wade, DeShaun Butler, Bosh and Anthony.
As soon as the game began, Wade immediately showed his strong strength, holding the ball in a row to break through the Lakers' interior line, which was simply unacceptable, and Gasol was afraid of repeating the foul trouble in the previous game, so he didn't dare to make up for it too fiercely.
But fortunately, the Lakers' side was also quite powerful, Fisher threw a three-pointer, and Gasol and Odom also succeeded in singles one after another, so Wade's efforts did not make a difference.
"If this continues, the Heat will really lose this game." Smith said: "Isn't James still playing? If James had come on the court to share some of the offensive pressure from Wade and Bosh, the situation might have been better. ”
"I don't think so, the Lakers' Wang Meng and Bydam are not on the court yet, the flaws of the Heat lineup are too big, although they rely on the Big Three to force the finals, but if one of the giants plays abnormally, then their winning rate will drop a lot." Miller shook his head and sighed, "In order to sign James and Bosh, the price paid by the Heat is too great, and there is no salary to sign other good players." ”
Taking advantage of a dead-ball opportunity, Phil replaced Wang Meng and Bydam, while the Heat also replaced James and Haslem.
Looking at Wade with a gloomy face, Wang Mengle was happy, "Dude, what makes you so unhappy?" It makes me happy to say it. ”
Wade ignored Wang Meng, and sank down to defend Wang Meng carefully.
However, Wang Meng is not ready to go head-to-head with Wade, and his physical strength is still reserved for 30+10.
As soon as he waved, Gasol, who had a good relationship with him, immediately ran over to block the wall, this time Wade was prepared, and the moment Gasol came to block him, he immediately took a step back, letting Gasol rush towards the place where Wang Meng broke through.
But to his surprise, he pounced. Wang Meng stopped abruptly at the moment when he was about to pass Gasol, then went around from the other side, dodged Wade, who pounced on him, and then shot directly at the three-point line in this open opportunity.
The basketball obediently entered the net, and Wang Meng scored three points.
"Wang Meng's three-point shooting rate today is very high, nearly 49%, which is very good." Miller, who is the king of three points, looked at Wang Meng's three points and couldn't help but admire.
"That's right." Smith nodded and agreed: "Wang Meng's three-point shots this season are not many, but the shooting rate is very good, this season Wang Meng's average three-point shot per game is 5.3, and the average shooting rate per game is 47.9%, which means that Wang Meng will shoot at least two three-pointers in a game, as a point guard has such a three-point ability is already very good." ”
Of course, it's very good, Wang Meng has a special offensive training is three-point training, after such a long time of training, Wang Meng can confidently say that his three-point shooter is no worse than the average three-point shooter, but what the Lakers need now is not a three-point shooter, but a player who can connect the whole team, Kobe, Fisher, Brown, Artest and others can shoot three-pointers, and there is no need for Wang Meng to shoot too many three-pointers, so his strong three-point ability has not been fully displayed.
However, in order to get such difficult data as 30+10 today, Wang Meng can only use his whole body to fight.
Next, Wade's ball breakthrough mistake was stealed by Blake, Wang Meng hurried down, received the ball at the three-point line, faced Bibby's defense, Wang Meng jumped up directly and pulled out, although the scheming Bibby was prepared, he tried his best to jump up and interfere with Wang Meng, but Wang Meng's shot this time brought a little back, and Bibby could only helplessly watch the basketball hit again.
Wang Meng wiped his sweat slightly, the ball just now was still relatively reluctant, although he learned a super long-distance backward jumper, but the shooting rate was ugly and scary, even a slight backward tilt would greatly affect the shooting feel, Wang Meng could not guarantee the hit rate of the backward shot, after all, his stagnation was not as terrifying as Jordan Kobe's anti-sky existence.
Two consecutive three-pointers made Wang Meng's personal score rise to 20 points, and also widened the gap between the Heat and the Lakers to 9 points, which is about to exceed 10 points.
The Heat head coach handed in a timeout.
Looking at where the head coach of the Heat is shouting from afar, Phil Jackson seems very calm, whenever this happens, he will always become an old god, which is why everyone calls him Zen Master.
The game came back again, James was obviously taught a lesson by the head coach of the Heat, and took the initiative to take over the ball and prepare to attack, but the effect was not satisfactory, two offenses, one was stealed by Artest and turned into a mistake, and one was interfered with by Bydam and did not score, and Wang Meng on the Lakers side assisted Artest for a layup, got his seventh assist, and the difference between the two teams officially opened to more than ten points.
Wang Meng breathed a sigh of relief, his current data is 20 points, 7 assists, and at this time there are still a few minutes in the third quarter of the game, according to the current situation, it is not a dream to get 30+10 before the end of the game.
But it's really a fluke to say that he completed this mission, to put it bluntly, there is a lot of tricks, no one expected James's abnormal play, the lack of James's Heat has dropped a notch both offensively and defensively, and it has also made Wade's pressure a lot greater, Wade has to allocate more energy to connect the whole team and be responsible for the offense, which also makes Wang Meng, who was defended by Wade, much easier, otherwise, under Wade's strict defense, Wang Meng's points will have to consume a lot of physical strength, It certainly won't be as easy as it is now.
As Wang Meng expected, from the end of the third quarter to the fourth quarter of the game, James still didn't get up, he just shot a few times, hit a ball in total, and took a free throw, and only scored 7 points in the whole game, not at all like the domineering Zhan Huang in the past.
Due to this situation, Wade and Bosh teamed up to chase points in the fourth quarter, scoring 28 points, 9 assists and 32 points and 8 rebounds respectively, and the two of them combined to score 60 points, but unfortunately, it didn't make sense under the Lakers' powerful offense.
Wang Meng scored 11 points and 4 assists in the fourth quarter, and scored 31 points and 11 assists in the whole game, becoming the best in the game.
No matter what others think, Wang Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, at least the task was completed and he would not be punished.
