Chapter 339: Let's Go Home! LeBron! (10,000-word chapter)
On the evening of June 8th, the first quarter of the Finals G2 had just ended, and the NBA circle exploded directly.
All sports media were almost dumbfounded, and many ball commentators also expressed their positions on social media:
"It's over! The era of the Heat's Big Three has come to an end! ”
With a 19-point deficit of 22:41 in the first quarter, no one believed that the Heat could complete a comeback in such a situation, and the Heat may have collapsed first before the Clippers made a mistake.
Coach Spo was stupid and unconsciously yelled at his players during the break, but the Staples Arena was completely boiling, and the Heat couldn't hear what the head coach was saying.
James, Wade, and Bosh just sat in their seats in a daze, Wade was covered with a towel all the time, James bowed his head and was silent, Bosh's eyes were straight, and he didn't seem to have fully accepted reality.
With such a huge point difference, there is no need to rotate the lineup to play, the main lineup is on the lineup, and if you don't play again, you may not have a chance
Norris Cole replaced Chalmers in the first quarter, and the small guard was scared and felt that he was destined to be beaten up when he came on the court.
The Clippers didn't make too many personnel changes either, Matt Barnes replaced Ray Allen, and the main lineup continued to play, and head coach De Nagro intended to end the game at halftime.
"Unbelievable! I still can't believe that the Clippers missed a shot in the first quarter of the game! ”
Commentator Mike Brin couldn't help but sigh again when he saw the main lineups of the two teams continuing to play, the shooting percentage was too scary.
"The Heat have to respond from the outside, and at the same time try to speed up as much as possible, and with a 19-point difference, relying on the positional offense, it will definitely not be able to chase the points."
Jeff Van Gundy regained his composure and began to help the Heat in the commentary box, and as soon as the two finished speaking, Rashad Lewis hit the iron in the right bottom corner.
"Bang!"
The long rebound ball popped up and fell directly into Li Ze's hands, and the fans at the scene immediately cheered loudly, and the numb Heat team retreated mechanically.
“Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! Let's go Clippers! ”
The passionate shouts of the fans, a feeling of witnessing history, made everyone's hearts feel extremely excited.
Li Ze dribbled the ball across the halfcourt, and as soon as he came to the right wing outside the three-point line, LeBron James' defense pressed up.
Griffin quickly came to the three-point line, just stood still, facing James's defense, Li Ze, who was holding the ball in his left hand, made a small In and Out, his body shook right and left, and he pretended to break through on the left side.
LeBron James immediately chose to stick to the defense, ready to force the cover, Li Ze suddenly changed direction under his crotch after taking a big step, and his body immediately shook to the right, James adjusted the center of gravity of the defense and hurriedly slid to the left.
James just wanted to block Li Ze's travel route, and Li Ze, who had completed the change of direction under his crotch, suddenly turned sharply and completely shook LeBron James's defense.
The fans shouted with joy when they saw the wonderful pass, and Rashad Lewis wanted to help defend it, only to find that Griffin had already started to go down.
2 to 1, in the end, Lewis still chose to follow Griffin, and after James was shaken, he desperately chased Li Ze.
Li Ze's breakthrough speed was fast, and he noticed that James behind him had caught up, and he paused slightly in the middle of the march, and at the moment when James pounced, his left hand quickly wrapped around the ball behind his crotch, and then accelerated again.
Stopped and started quickly, and then retreated, near the baseline on the left side, Li Ze completely shook off LeBron James's defense, and made an easy jump shot from the middle distance!
"Huh!" Two-point goal with ease!
The fans at the scene screamed with excitement, saw LeBron James being shaken and danced on the spot, and some front-row fans laughed and mocked:
“Not one! Not two! Not three! ”
“WOW!”
Hearing such a taunt, LeBron James broke his defense, his face became darker and darker, and he failed to fulfill the promises he made back then.
Li Ze saw the fans at the scene working frantically, smiled and shook his head, without the championship, it would be difficult for this chosen son to gain the respect of the fans.
Stats are ultimately in the service of victory, and while reaching the finals is a great achievement, most fans will cheer for the winners, and the losers will be able to accept the ridicule.
At 22:43, the difference was widened to 21 points, and Coach Spo on the sidelines was in no mood to remind his players to concentrate, and the game was completely over.
Lewis Bangbang hit the iron, when the Heat attacked, Wade and Bosh played a pick-and-roll, after the right wing completed the block, Wade accelerated with the ball in his right hand, and Bosh bounced outside the three-point line.
The Clippers' defense quickly contracted, and Wade, who was breaking through, threw the ball directly to the outside in a hurry, but the passing force was too great, and Bosh didn't catch the ball and flew directly across the halfcourt
Bosh looked extremely frustrated, and as soon as he recovered the ball, the referee signalled for a return violation.
"The Heat seem to have completely collapsed, and having such a low-level mistake is almost giving the Clippers a point!"
"LeBron James has to step up! As the leader of the team, he should respond immediately on both ends of the floor! ”
Jeff Van Gundy couldn't stand it anymore, and he no longer explained the situation on the field, and fired directly at full power.
Frustration pervades the minds of the Heat's players, and the most immediate reaction is a plummeting defensive intensity.
The Clippers attacked, and Li Ze was near the baseline on the right side, with the help of Griffin's underscreen, and easily bounced to the right elbow area of the free throw line.
A very simple zipper screen, but James, who was less motivated to defend, couldn't catch up in time.
Li Ze received Paul's pass, did not make any adjustments, and made an easy jump shot again in the middle distance!
"Huh!" Two-pointer again!
The Staples Arena is about to blow up, and the fans at the scene are screaming wildly, and the score difference is still widening!
Li Ze, who threw into the middle distance, celebrated with a smile and high-fived Paul, the game was completely over, and the main lineup could rest just after the Heat changed to the atmosphere group.
In the next few minutes, although Lewis hit two three-pointers, before he could be happy for half a minute, Li Ze used cover to easily respond from the outside.
At this time, LeBron James's defense was basically gone, and there were passing errors when attacking, and the anxious Wade even had a scene where he dribbled and smashed his foot and popped off the bottom line.
Paul's occasional mid-range, Griffin's low-post hit Lewis, Jordan Jr.'s basket was cake-eating, and the Clippers' scoring continued to rise.
The atmosphere at Staples Arena is getting hotter, and after an official timeout, veteran Ray Allen is back on the pitch.
In the case of complete relaxation, Ray Allen even broke through with the ball and assisted Li Ze to hit a three-pointer in the left bottom corner, and Coach Spo saw that LeBron James basically stopped chasing and was angry.
In the end, Wade, who had an emotional breakdown, began to switch defenses to Li Ze, and as a result, Ray Allen fired again on the outside.
In the bottom corner of the right side, he received a breakaway shot from Li Ze and hit a three-pointer with ease, and Ray Allen smiled and raised three fingers high.
The game continued, and in the final 1:42 of the first half, LeBron James finally hit the middle distance from the free throw line.
As a result, in the next round, Li Ze faced Wade's defense and immediately asked for the ball with his back in the left blocking area.
Wade, who broke the big defense, was in no mood to defend, and when he saw Li Ze receiving the ball, he reached out and pulled the foul.
"Squeak!"
The referee's whistle blew and signaled for Li Zeli to get two free throws.
"I'm very disappointed with the Heat's performance, this is the Finals, they should show a stronger desire to win!"
"Look at their defense of Kayce, they're not even as good as the Grizzlies and Spurs, and the Finals shouldn't be like that at all!"
Jeff Van Gundy was angry with the Heat again, and commentator Mike Brin didn't interject, seeing Li Ze hit a free throw, he briefly introduced the situation on the court:
"At 47:79, each side has a final attack, and I think this game is completely over."
With Bosh hitting the mid-range and Griffin hitting the iron from the mid-range, the first half officially ended, 49:79, and the Clippers led by 30 points at halftime.
When Jeff Van Gundy saw the statistics in the second quarter, he was no longer interested in continuing to spray the Heat, so he could only sigh:
"Oh God! With 15 of 22, the Clippers' shooting percentage finally dropped to 6 percent.
Commentator Mike Brin didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only take over the conversation awkwardly:
"Kayce shot all 11 of 11 from the half, including 6-of-6 from three-point range and 5-of-5 from the free-throw line, to finish with 33 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block, and we will witness another great record together tonight!"
Li Ze, who returned to the locker room, wanted to change into training clothes directly, but he was not interested in continuing to score points, but the assistant coach came to Li Ze's side and reminded in a low voice:
"Kayce, hold on for a few more minutes, in the third quarter, the main lineup has to play a little longer, ESPN and the league have already said hello to the team."
Li Ze smiled helplessly, and then asked in a low voice:
"A problem with ratings?"
The assistant coach didn't speak, just gave Li Ze a look that you understand.
The atmosphere group of the Clippers is not troubled by Li Ze, everyone is gearing up, waiting for the performance, this is the capital to brag about after many years:
"I'm the guy who scored 10 points in the finals!"
After a few years, when I hear this, most of the budding newcomers will be in awe, what a big guy!
As soon as the new president took office, the Clippers gave the league a big gift, and after half the G2 half, the ratings began to decline.
Everyone is tired of reading the script of the Big Three, with a big lead at halftime, and fans are not in the mood to watch the second half, and many people are complaining frantically on Twitter:
"This is definitely the most boring grand finale I've ever experienced!"
Chris Paul laughed in the locker room, and although his happiness was built on the pain of his good brothers James and Wade, the Cannon chairman had long forgotten about the two by this time.
In the visiting locker room, only Coach Spo was still giving chicken soup to the players, and the atmosphere of the team was extremely silent, and they had been nailed to the pillar of shame after losing the finals like this.
It can be expected that when it comes to losing in the finals, fans will definitely think of 2014.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Wade took over the ball, even burst into shots, and continued to help the Heat team score points, and the defensive end also took the initiative to play against Li Ze, showing a 120% attitude.
However, the gap in strength is too big, Wade just used his breakthrough to complete 2+1, and when he turned around, Li Ze asked for the ball with his back in the right blocking area.
Although there is no desire to brush the score, some of the response balls, you have to shoot.
Wade desperately tried to half-wrap around the front defense and not let Li Ze receive the ball easily, but the disadvantage of his body made it difficult for him to take advantage of the low post.
Li Ze received Paul's high-toss pass, turned around and attacked, raised the ball to the back of his head, ignored Wade, who stepped forward to defend, and took a quick tentative step with his left foot to the right front, and then suddenly released the ball with his right hand, and broke through with a simple cross step.
With his physical strength, after Li Ze dribbled vigorously twice, he carried Wade, jumped and rushed into the three-second zone, and then paused slightly, raised the ball and shook it, deceived Wade and Bosh who came up to help the defense, and forced the board in the gap!
"Bang!"
"Squeak!"
The goal is valid, and the penalty will be added, and a huge cheer broke out again in the Staples Arena, and the fans at the scene saw Li Ze walking towards the free throw line, and immediately shouted loudly:
“MVP! MVP! MVP! ”
Wade was completely numb, and walked outside the three-point line in great frustration, watching Li Zejia hit a free throw, and Bosh under the basket, expressionless, mechanically sent out the baseline ball.
Every minute on the court is torture, LeBron James has no desire to attack, and Li Ze will not shoot again after hitting the middle distance again.
At the end of the third quarter, Wade took the initiative to foul, sent Li Ze to the free throw line again, and then walked directly to the bench, he didn't want to play anymore
"The Heat lost G2 in this way, and seriously, it was a huge morale blow to them, and how are they going to adjust when they get back home?"
Jeff Van Gundy heard Mike Breen's question, thought for a moment, and reluctantly replied:
"I don't know, Kayce has an absolute advantage in the position, LeBron James can't limit him, and coupled with the disadvantage of rebounding, it will be difficult for the Heat to make effective adjustments."
After Li Ze hit both free throws, he slowly walked to the bench, and the fans at the scene once again cheered him enthusiastically, and tonight witnessed history again!
"Even though we didn't see Kayce in the fourth quarter, he was impeccable tonight!"
"Played 33 minutes, shot all 13, including 6-of-6 three-pointers, 8-of-8 free throws, 40 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, shooting 100% from the field, Kayce is the only player in the history of the Finals to achieve this feat!"
Commentator Mike Brin took the opportunity to brag about Li Ze, who has never been seen before or since, and played such a hit rate in the finals, it's heavenly!
As soon as Li Ze returned to the bench, the atmosphere team hurriedly sent a kettle and a towel, and everyone looked at him with the eyes of aliens.
After briefly replenishing the water, Li Ze smiled and said to everyone:
"It's just a record of all, I broke Chamberlain's record before, there is no need to be so surprised!"
Hearing Li Ze's words, the atmosphere group was speechless, this is the finals
With two minutes left in the third quarter, Paul and Griffin also went off the floor, and everyone on the Clippers bench laughed and laughed, compared to the Heat, everyone sat numbly on the bench and no one said a word.
The fourth quarter of the game was completely garbage time, but fortunately, the atmosphere at Staples Arena was still hot, and the Clippers fans continued to cheer on the players on the court.
Aside from the official timeout, the game went very smoothly and the referee rarely blew for fouls.
When the final buzz sounded, the Clippers fans began to celebrate wildly, believing that the Heat were completely finished!
At 100:129, the Clippers at home beat the Heat, and the series score came to 2:0.
After shaking hands after the game, the Heat quickly returned to the players' tunnel, and what awaited them tonight was endless taunts
After that, Li Ze, Paul, and Griffin attended the press conference together, and tonight, everyone felt hot.
7-of-12, including 2-of-4 three-pointers and 4-of-4 free throws, Paul easily recorded 20 points, 3 rebounds, 14 assists, 1 steal and 2 turnovers.
7-of-11, including 6-of-6 from the free-throw line, Griffin also had a double-double of 20 points and 10 rebounds.
The business exchange at the scene made Paul and Griffin feel very good, and the TNT reporter took the opportunity to ask Li Ze a question:
"Congratulations, Kayce! We are all very happy to have set a grand final record again, and we are all very happy to be able to witness this moment! ”
"Winning two games in a row against the Heat shows the dominance of the Clippers, what do you expect from the next road game?"
Li Ze first looked at Paul and Griffin, and then said to the media reporters in the audience with a chuckle:
"Of course it's two wins in a row and it's the end of the series! We're in perfect shape and we can't wait to bring the O'Brien Cup back to Los Angeles! ”
The reporters accompanying the Clippers cheered, and many reporters also gave applause, and everyone was satisfied with Li Ze's answer.
There's no need to be humble anymore, sweeping the Heat and ending the boring matchup is now expected!
Various sports media wanted to interview LeBron James, but the Heat press officer told him that James could not attend the press conference due to back discomfort.
Looking at Wade and Bosh on the stage, everyone asked a few questions boringly, and ended the interview hastily.
James scored 18 points on 7-of-13 shooting, Wade scored 22 points on 8-of-12 shooting, and Bosh scored 9 points on 4-of-4 shooting
On the way back to the hotel, Bosh asked Wade beside him with a low expression:
"Can we win two home games?"
“.”
blurted out "of course" in the end could not be said, Wade was silent, and refused to be interviewed after thinking of his good brother James, knowing in his heart that the time for the three to play together may not be much.
That night, after the game, the NBA league released Li Ze's all-in-the-middle data poster again.
The photographer captured the photo of Li Ze holding LeBron James's cover and completing the projection:
"An unsurpassable record, once again witness greatness! The only one in history! #年轻的国王 (Crown .jpg)"
At the same time, a set of data was also published on Twitter:
In the 87~88 season, in the finals of the Lakers and Pistons, Adrian Dantley of the Pistons played 14 of 16, 34 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 turnovers.
87.5% is also the highest shooting percentage in NBA history in the Finals after detailed statistics.
In the finals of the 90~91 season, in the game between the Lakers and the Bulls, Michael Jordan played 15 of 18, 33 points, 7 rebounds, 13 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 4 turnovers.
The 83.3% shooting percentage is also outrageous!
The above two are both scoring guards, creating such a record, I thought that no one would surpass it, but Li Ze's all-middle performance completely stunned the fans, and everyone frantically reprinted and praised it after the game.
The second tweet of the NBA league once again incarnated as Li Zechui:
"The legacy of the shooting guard! The greatness continues! #年轻的国王 (Crown .jpg)"
Finals G3 officially started on the 10th, so there is only one day left for the Heat to adjust.
On the morning of the 9th, the Clippers set off for Miami, and although there was not much rest, two consecutive easy games kept everyone's physical strength full.
Amerika's media reporters didn't fall right away, after all, the Heat still have two home games to play, but once they lose G3, the situation will be completely different, and the ball critics can't wait!
"These media are so boring, they have won two big games in a row, why can't they say that they swept their opponents? It can be pulled to the point of disrespecting the Heat. ”
Griffin looked at the magazine in his hand and couldn't help but complain to Li Ze beside him about the news he saw in the morning.
"Don't care about what they say, trust me, if we continue to win tonight, we don't have to say that we will sweep the opponent, the NBA will prepare for the award ceremony in advance."
As soon as Li Ze's words fell, everyone on the plane burst into laughter.
Although it hurts a little, the truth is that 3:0 and there will be no suspense in the series.
"It feels like the Western Conference Finals are like the Finals, and the strength of the Eastern teams is really not enough."
"In the offseason, I would advise the players' union to report to the league that they should pay attention to the inspection of the stadium facilities before the game, I don't want to experience another hot game!"
Chairman Cannon remembered that the air conditioning problem in the Western Conference Finals was finally resolved, and he felt a little aggrieved, and he felt that he had a lot of work to do this offseason.
Matt Barnes also seemed to think back to the Western Conference Finals, and said with emotion:
"If the Spurs make it to the Finals, maybe there will be no suspense about the championship, but luckily we won against each other."
The Clippers atmosphere group also began to discuss, if the Spurs reached the Finals, how many points would they score to win against the Heat, Li Ze heard everyone's discussions, and some memories also appeared in his mind:
"Gentleman sweep? That's not what I'm after! ”
“.”
On the night of the 9th, after completing the practice, LeBron James did not choose to return home, but came to the side of his friend Randy Miems.
LeBron James, Randy Miems, Marfrett Carter, and Rich Paul have a close relationship and form the innermost circle of James, and LRMR Marketing Company was co-founded by the four of them.
Tonight, everyone is on Randy Miems' side waiting for LeBron James to make a decision.
As LeBron James' closest friend, Randy Meems graduated from college and became LeBron James' personal assistant after working for AT Telecom for a while.
The two grew up together, both were Akron's children, and while with the Cavaliers, Randy Meems also became a special liaison for the team.
After the four were together, LeBron James fired his senior agent Goodwin, and the four of them were bound in interests and intimate, so LeBron James's decision was not only for himself, but also for the cause of his brothers.
Mafriet Carter used to work at Nike, and for LeBron James's sake, Nike did not reject this grassroots with average education.
After several years of work experience, he gained a lot, and when he saw LeBron James sitting on the sofa, he said first:
"We have to leave Miami and we have to lose here, and that affects your personal brand! Nobody likes to buy losers' sneakers! ”
"No matter how good Nike's channels are, our public opinion environment is getting worse and worse!"
Rich Paul used to be just a little guy who resold retro jerseys, and after getting to know James, he officially turned over.
Among the four, he most wants LeBron James to win the championship and expand his influence, and if he wants to sign players, it is best to get the admiration of young players first, the influence of the first person in the league is huge, and every budding newcomer prefers to deal with big guys.
However, the clever Rich-Paul did not directly suggest, but spoke of Li Ze's unknown influence:
"I agree with Mafrett that from an agency's point of view, the sports division of Big Machine Records is getting more and more influential."
"Jrue Holiday, Kevin Love, and DeMar DeRozan are all All-Stars and have been signed by the other side!"
"Ibaka, Klay Thompson, and Kyle Lowry, the three who played famously, were also signed over there."
"The most terrifying thing is his influence on the Clippers, scouts will say hello to Big Machine Records first, and last year's French big man Gobert was signed before he got Amerika."
What does this mean? I don't think it goes without saying that every rookie player who comes to the Clippers in the future will probably be signed by Big Machine Records, which will bring them a lot of benefits. ”
"It's possible that the league will sign big broadcast contracts, and players will be paid more in the future! Brokerage companies will make a lot of money! ”
In the end, Rich Paul almost scolded his mother, and Li Ze was in complete control of the Clippers!
He'd heard from insiders, Gary Sachs, the team's general manager, who even asked Li Ze about the draft, and although he didn't know if the news was true, it was already very scary.
As Loeb Langjames's closest friend, Randy Meems finally spoke:
"LeBron, I know you don't want to leave Wade, but in Miami you're going to lose everything, four years, and we haven't been able to achieve anything in those four years."
"I don't want to say anything discouraged, but tomorrow night, we don't have a good chance of winning, stay in Miami, you'll play to the number 4 position, I understand your body, for the sake of your career, leaving Miami is the right choice."
LeBron James holds his forehead with one hand, since the beginning of "Decision", the public opinion environment in the outside world has been getting worse and worse, and if he leaves Miami again, he can't imagine what the media will say about him:
"We don't have a lot of options, I don't know where to go and win the championship, what if I leave Miami and fail?"
The three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw LeBron James, looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at the same time.
If this one really wants to stay by Wade's side, then their career may end here
"Go home! LeBron! We are all Akron children! We are always welcome in our hometown! ”
Randy Meems is a fat black man with good looks, and hearing such advice from this friend back home, LeBron James was immediately moved.
During the All-Star Game, he consciously had a relationship with Irving, but unfortunately the other party was not interested in him, but had a hot fight with Durant and Li Ze.
When he thought about this, James was still a little hesitant, and with the Cavaliers fans still mocking him to this day, he didn't know what kind of scene he would face when he returned.
Seeing LeBron James' hesitation, Mafriet Carter immediately beat the side drum again:
"Don't worry, LeBron! We will definitely make you come home decently! ”
Rich-Paul also struck while the iron was hot, and hurriedly said eagerly:
"Go home! LeBron! Play for our hometown, no one will taunt us anymore! We are responsible for the public opinion of the outside world, you just need to play well! ”
Hearing the advice of the three good brothers, LeBron James didn't say anything more, and finally nodded silently, but secretly prayed in his heart:
"Hope everything goes well!"
I don't know what year the free market started, the players have decided their next home in advance, and after the trade opens, almost their respective teams will be officially announced.
The trio got LeBron James' final permission and could finally act boldly, and they had a plan for how to go home decently!
On June 10, the American Airlines arena was packed, and Heat fans came to the scene early, wearing white cheering T-shirts, cheering for the home team.
Two big losses in a row did not affect the enthusiasm of the fans.
Losing by 1 point is also a loss, losing by 58 points is also a loss, anyway, it should be no different!
Fans consoled themselves with fantasies that when the team returned to their home court, they could go on a killing spree and take the Clippers with ease.
It's just that when the game entered the official timeout in the first quarter, the fans of the Heat team were completely numb.
At 16:6, the Heat scored only 6 points in the first half of the game.
The American Airlines arena was extremely noisy at this time, and fans couldn't believe that the Heat, which has a big three, had such a difficult time to score!
"The Clippers' tactics were very successful, using Kayce to defend LeBron James and cut him off from his teammates."
"Even though LeBron James hit a three-pointer from the outside, it didn't change the situation on the court."
"It's still a problem on the defensive end, and if you want to limit the Clippers' scoring, you have to guard Kayce first, but unfortunately, LeBron James' defense didn't work as expected."
On the ESPN commentary bench, Jeff Van Gundy reluctantly commented on the half-quarter game.
"Compared to the Heat, the Clippers played aggressively, Kayce's breakaway, Griffin's low post, and Paul's connection with Jordan Jr., all of which could easily score points."
"I hope Coach Spo can adjust in time, the double-digit difference is too dangerous!"
Commentator Mike Brin didn't know what to say, but the first two games, the number of viewers for the finals was about 15 million.
However, every time it comes to the second half of the game, the ratings will drop suddenly, ESPN, as the broadcaster, many staff members scolded the Heat team for being a soft egg, if there is only such quality in the finals every year, the NBA league will be completely finished.
The noise at the scene couldn't affect the good mood of everyone on the Clippers, it was too relaxing!
Assistant coach Tyronn Lue has perfected his championship coaching theory in the past few days, and he has gained a lot in this year with the Clippers!
After Li Ze played two consecutive full 48 minutes, Tyronn Lue secretly observed for a long time although he believed Li Ze's words.
The conclusion is that playing a few high-intensity matches is not too much of a problem for a superstar.
When he was a player, he worked with Kobe Bryant and Jordan, the former is also a physical monster, and although the latter is older, he is not as fierce as an earthling when he is young!
The Clippers' strongest tactic is to make King's thigh comfortable to receive the ball, and in the two games of the Finals, Tyronn Lue witnessed the power of this tactic firsthand.
Feeling that he has learned to slay dragons, Tyronn Lue is also in a good mood, and he will win the championship with the Clippers this year!
"Don't relax! Defeat the opponent in one go, and when we fight for half-time, we will end the game and receive the award at the American Airlines Arena the day after tomorrow! ”
Coach De Nagro didn't use a tactical board, clapping his hands and loudly encouraging the Clippers.
The players from both sides returned to the court, the Heat served from the baseline, and the DJ on the scene immediately cheered loudly for the home team:
“Let's go Heat! Let's go Heat! Let's go Heat! ”
In the American Airlines arena, the noisy voices began to stop buying, and after Chalmers dribbled past half court, he gave the ball directly to Wade on the left wing.
The latter received the ball, held the ball in his right hand, and immediately completed a block with Bosh, just one step past the three-point line, Wade quickly closed the ball, and shot a direct jump shot with two points!
"Bang!" One more hit!
The rebound was easily picked up by Griffin under the basket, and Paul noticed that the Heat had completed the defense, and after making a tactical gesture, dribbled through the half court unhurriedly.
At this time, the defensive intensity of the Heat team has decreased a little, Li Ze first asked for the ball with his back in the left blocking area, met LeBron James half-around the front defense, suddenly turned around, and then bounced diagonally outward.
With the help of Griffin's undercover from the free-throw line, he easily got to the right wing outside the three-point line and immediately received a pass from Paul.
Raising the ball to sway, first mobilized the defensive center of gravity of LeBron James, who was chasing after the defense, and then Li Ze immediately put the ball with his right hand and broke through.
took a big step forward, then directly closed the ball, exerted force at his feet, rose into the air, twisted his body, ignored the block of James on the side, and shot a two-point pull-up jump shot!
"Huh!" Two-pointer again!
"Shh
The completely unreasonable goal, just one step of dribbling, jumped so high, the fans of the Heat team had lemons in their hearts, and began to boo Li Ze again.
Despite being confronted with a goal, LeBron James remained calm.
In this game, James did not show the desire to win, and part of the boos on the scene were given to the chosen son
Li Ze naturally also noticed that James did not do his best on the defensive end, so in the face of such a defense, his offense was more concise, basically catching the ball and throwing it.
In the next few minutes, Chris Bosh found his touch, hitting back-to-back mid-range shots to help the Heat score six straight points.
The Clippers also responded, with Li Ze, Paul, and Griffin blocking and dismantling cooperating to easily score mid-range.
Coach Spo, who was on the sidelines, saw that the Heat's defense was getting more and more stretched, and he was so anxious that he walked back and forth, constantly roaring loudly, reminding his players to work hard to defend.
But on the court, the Heat's defense is losing its aggressiveness.
Rashad Lewis hit a two-pointer and returned to the defensive end when he met a crosscut cover from the Clippers.
Noticing that Li Ze was from right to left, the line quickly crosscut, Lewis was completely numb, noticed that LeBron James was hung up by Jordan Jr.'s cover, and hurriedly prepared to switch to Li Ze.
Li Ze, who received the pass on the left flank, did not shake too much in the face of Lewis, who came up from the change of defense, released the ball with his left hand, and after dribbling forward, he suddenly exploded the ball vigorously and retreated sharply.
Easily came to the three-point line, ignored Lewis's jump block, and made a quick jump shot on a three-point shot!
"Huh!" Three-point shot hollow into the net!
At 27:14, with the last 52 seconds left in the first quarter, the Heat fans in the American Airlines arena were in no mood to boo.
Li Ze chuckled at Lewis, this Mr. 100 million yuan really can't keep up with his rhythm, fake sudden real shots, simple offensive methods, can easily shake off the opponent's defense.
In the final moments, Chalmers hit a three-pointer from the outside, and Paul responded with Lewis's defensive pick-and-roll being too slow from beyond the three-point line.
The Heat fans at the scene watched Chalmers throw the last time without even touching the frame, and then erupted in boos.
In the finals, fans booed their home team, and such a scene made Jeff Van Gundy not know what to say:
"The Heat didn't show a winning attitude! I don't want to continue criticizing them. ”
"The Clippers just played normally, Kayce was 5-of-7, including 1-of-2 three-pointers and 2-of-2 free throws, scoring 13 points with ease, and LeBron James' defense didn't make any difference."
Commentator Mike Brin didn't want to comment too much on the game, it was too stretched, and in the end it was just a simple summary of the big cliché:
"Hopefully the Heat's rotation players can show that they need to hit some three-pointers from the outside."
In the second quarter of the game, LeBron James did not take the lead, Wade and Bosh led the team, and on the Clippers' side, Li Ze also sat on the bench, and Paul and Jordan Jr. were still on the court.
As a result, after more than four minutes of play, the Heat only scored 3 points, and the American Airlines Arena was completely fried, and the fans booed both teams.
With 7:23 left in the second quarter, Li Ze and LeBron James were ready to return with their main players.
Standing in front of the technical table, before the substitution occurred, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred at the scene.
A white fan suddenly burst into the arena from a front-row seat, wearing a white T-shirt with a black pen written on the front:
“ We Miss You”
There are a few more words on the back:
“2014 Come Back”
The game was forced to be suspended, and all the Heat fans at the scene were blinded, and all kinds of discussions continued, and the American Airlines arena instantly became extremely noisy.
The fan quickly rushed at LeBron James while tearing out shouting:
"Go home! LeBron! Cleveland needs you! ”
The security personnel in the American Airlines arena rushed up and immediately controlled the fan, and when he saw that the other party was about to be escorted away, James immediately stepped forward to stop him.
Under the gaze of the Heat fans, LeBron James hugged the fan cordially, the two exchanged fists, and finally James patted each other's shoulders and looked very moved:
"Thanks! Bro! You'll get out of the arena safely! ”
The Heat fans immediately erupted in another burst of boos, poaching people in person? Coming to the finals?
The sports media at the scene were already so excited that they couldn't help themselves, this is a big melon!
When LeBron James returned to the technical table, he found Li Ze looking at him with a strange expression, and then immediately turned his head and pretended to be calm.
Li Ze lowered his head and sorted out the elbow pad on his left arm, still with a strange smile on his face, but he was a little powerless to complain in his heart:
"Is hometown basketball about to start?"
