The next day, many media outlets congratulated the Bulls on getting one step closer to the Finals, and while aiming their guns at Heat head coach Pat Riley.

The media is so realistic, as long as you can win, the head coach doesn't care much, and if you can't do it, you can even mix up a majestic nickname, such as "Zen Master".

And no one has ever said that the "Zen Master" is overrated, for a coach who dozes off the field and bubbles the boss's daughter off the field, there is only a reason to underestimate him, how can he be overestimated?

Riley, who wins, is a "golden operator", and no one will praise him if he loses.

ESPN experts believe that it is Riley's devilish training culture that makes many players physically and mentally overdrawn, causing the Heat to lose.

Since taking the helm of the Heat Portal in 1995, Riley has been most impressed by the frequent "shuffling" and continuous "dressing-changing". However, within a few years, the stars of the Heat were either injured or sick, and their careers suffered heavy losses.

Macho Mo Ning's weird glomerular necrosis in his fourth year with the Heat; Hardaway was scrapped on both knees in his fourth year with the Heat; O'Neal is on the verge of tearing up with Riley in his second season; In addition to the fact that these people's style of play is too dependent on the body, Riley's devil training is also a problem.

Hard training is the only way for NBA players to become superstars, but hard training must control the amount of training, once you break through the amount that your body and mind can bear, there will be problems, not everyone is suitable. Riley is known as the "Devil's Leader" because he pushes for an overload of training.

When it comes to devil training, Riley has many bizarre stories: he once locked the 39-year-old Abdul-Jabbar in a super-hot sauna for 1.5 hours, and once made "The Magician" do 300 boring switchbacks in a row. He also sends a memo to his players every season: no more than 6% fat in defenders and 8% in forwards. The center cannot exceed 10%.

Of course, Riley Devils is best known for his emergency training camp in Santa Barbara before the 1989 Finals. The Lakers, who were aiming for three consecutive championships, reached the Finals with an 11-0 record in the playoffs that year. His physical and mental condition had been adjusted to the best, but Riley was not satisfied. He pulled the team to Santa Barbara for a week of closed training.

You know, that Lakers team is a veteran team through and through, Abdul-Jabbar is 42 years old, they have reached the Finals four years in a row, and the level of physical and mental exhaustion can be imagined, but Riley still wants to squeeze more potential. The results of that training camp were remarkable, "Magic" and Byron Scott were both injured, and the Lakers were swept by the Pistons.

This season, Riley is training with the devils to get the old guys back to their passion for the game. But there is no limit to the youth of the bulls. A young man with a lot of physical strength, this method obviously doesn't work.

Riley likes to practice once his team loses, and this time he didn't arrange more training when he returned to home, just encouraged the players to work hard.

He finally realized his mistake, but it was a little too late.

In the third game, the Heat changed their style of play, O'Neal pulled out to cover, and then cut in the air, and the other players on the perimeter also pulled away, resolutely creating space for Wade to break through.

Wade was in power. Even in the face of the bag, he is still unmistakable. He had the ability, Riley hadn't done that before.

Wade has a trick that is not easy to block whether it is Hinrich or a player who switches defenses, and that is to quickly jump and throw the board. This movement looks like blindness, but he is particularly accurate.

Wade jumped very high and was traveling at high speed. The bag clip is useless, and it can only be sealed by one person.

To defend Wade. The Bulls fouled a number of players, and he made 24 free throws. The shooting percentage was also high, with 21 shots.

Wade had 48 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals, leading the Heat to a strong comeback. 109 to 94.

Wang Jun only had 25 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, and 5 turnovers.

Even worse was Hinrich, who had just six points and five assists and was fouled out for six times.

After the game, many Chinese fans expressed dissatisfaction, saying that this was a typical black whistle, Wade made more free throws than the entire Bulls, and O'Neal made twice as many free throws as the Bulls.

Wade is really in good shape this game, and there are actually only two controversial decisions.

Wade is perhaps the best breakaway guard in the league, not one of them. He doesn't have to cover, he can get past anyone one-on-one because he's fast, he's good at dribbling and he's strong.

The speed is not as strong as him, and the stronger than him is not as fast as him, plus he can also shoot this season, making Wade almost invincible in heads-up.

Wang Jun has competed with all the outside stars in the league, and he feels that he is the first to single out Wade, and it is not a problem to explode James, Kobe, and Carter.

During the star weekend, Wade played him one-on-one to gain the upper hand, and the coach did not arrange for him to be the main defense.

The Heat saw hope of a comeback, and Riley encouraged his players after the game to keep fighting. Unfortunately, the Heat can't expect Wade to play against the sky every game.

In the fourth game, Wade played well, and O'Neal had a problem.

In the regular season, O'Neal averaged just 30 minutes per game, and in the playoffs, his playing time increased to around 35 minutes.

FOR A BIG CENTER FORWARD WHO HAS SUFFERED A MAJOR INJURY, IS OVERWEIGHT, AND IS 216CM TALL, HIS PHYSICAL STRENGTH HAS BEEN SEVERELY TESTED.

It's not that O'Neal doesn't work hard, it's just that his size can play 30 minutes and burn more calories than many defenders to play the whole game.

After coming to the Heat, O'Neal also increased the amount of training and lost weight under the tutelage of Riley. He almost won the MVP last season, as if he had a second spring, but at the cost of a near-physical overdraft.

His body did not allow him to fight so hard for two consecutive seasons and miss many games. If Riley's training is still done next season, O'Neal will not be far away.

Played six games with the Wizards, O'Neal and Haywood hand-to-hand. Although there is no meat shield center for the Pacers, but after seven games, O'Neal is also tired and half dead. He has now played 16 playoff games. The Lakers only played 17 games in the 2001 championship season.

As a result, there was a magical scene on the field, and O'Neill was stopped by Hayes.

He couldn't get stuck in the basket after blocking and dismantling, he couldn't hit the basket when he asked for the ball alone, and he couldn't keep his hand feeling when he turned around and shot near the restricted area.

O'Neal shot just 5-of-14 from the field, shooting less than 40 percent, plus free throws to get 14 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists.

What's more unfortunate is O'Neal's defense, which leaked many times after the block, Wang Jun shot 4 three-pointers, Hinrich 5, and Nocioni also scored a three-pointer. The Heat had only Walker shoot two three-pointers, and the others were all dumb.

The Bulls defeated the Heat 102-95 to take the match point.

Wade finished with 39 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, made 21 free throws and hit 17 of them, but he couldn't help much from beyond the three-point line.

Wang Jun shot 11-of-19 from the field, 4-of-10 from three-point range, and did not make free throws, finishing with 26 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

Many Chinese fans posted on the Internet and even suspected that there was a black whistle on the Heat's home court. Although Wang Jun is mainly shooting and does not break through much, he also has a lot of physical confrontation with the opponent in the counterattack, what is a free throw called?

There are also Bulls fans in the United States who watched the live broadcast and posted: "Bulls players are fouls when they fart off the court. ”

The referee did give the Heat some preferential treatment, which made the Bulls very unhappy. If you win, you don't care.
