278: Two records in one game, a fire in the winter!
At this time, it was in the plaza outside the American Airlines Center in Miami.
Hundreds of Ben Sam. Smith's new books were piled up, and several fire trucks had arrived at the scene, and a table had been set up in front of those books.
It was the idea that NBC TV came up with, and if the Heat won, then Sam. Smith came out and immediately had the entire on-site book signing of the new book, which was absolutely hot.
If he loses, then, as he promised, he will come out and burn these books to ashes in one fell swoop, and the whole thing will be broadcast live!
At this time, many fans gathered outside the cordon in the square.
Because right now, Sam. I'm afraid Smith's signing will not be able to be done.
Fans are waiting to see him burn all his books with his own hands!
At this point, the game had reached the last two minutes.
Miami Heat trails by 15 points! Almost lost the game!
Shay, with his terrible individual performance, completely dominated the game!
In the second half, since Shay began to exert his strength, he did not leave the slightest chance for the Heat.
And after Shay equalized the score, the Lakers became more and more courageous.
The Heat, on the other hand, are getting lower and lower morale.
So in the third quarter, the Heat was prevented from scoring only 10 points in a single quarter!
In history, the Miami Heat limited Jordan's shooting to 38 percent in the Eastern Conference Finals.
But what? Still unable to prevent the Bulls from sweeping their gentlemen 4-1.
There are even rumors that the Bulls should have swept the Heat directly.
The reason why the Heat won one game is not because of human feelings.
It's not the kind of situation of appreciating flowers, admiring the moon and appreciating autumn fragrance, Li Tie, Li Nan, and Li Chunjiang.
The reason why the Heat were able to win one game is because .
After taking a 3-0 lead, Jordan felt that the game had stabilized and was too relaxed, so G4 did not rest or train the day before, and went to play golf for a day.
When the Heat won the game, Jordan and the Bulls woke up instantly.
So in the fifth game, the Bulls defeated the Heat 100-87 and completely ended the game.
So why did the Heat limit Jordan to just 38% shooting, but he was still beaten to the point where he couldn't fight back?
Again, basketball is a game of "I'm more than you".
The Bulls averaged 87.4 points per game in that series and shot 39.8 percent from the field.
But the Heat averaged just 78.6 points per game and shot 38.4 percent from the field.
Jordan averaged 30.2 points per game while shooting 38.7 percent from the field
But what about Hardaway? He averaged 17.2 points per game and shot 35.1 percent from the field.
The Heat limited the Bulls badly, but the Bulls limited the Heat even worse!
Today, the second half of the game between the Lakers and the Heat is a replica of this situation.
At the start of the third quarter, Shay's individual offense was fierce, but the Lakers' overall efficiency was mediocre.
Even Shay's own shooting percentage was just over 40 percent.
But the problem is that the Heat have no way to take the Lakers' defense!
Mourning admits that from the moment the score was equalized, the team's thinking was no longer about how to win, but how to not lose too badly!
Unfortunately, the situation in the fourth quarter still did not improve.
They are still being defended quite badly by the Lakers.
In this round, after Mo Ning took the ball in the low position, he didn't dare to make too hard moves at all.
Because of the guy behind him
It's so cheap!
After Shay equalized in the third quarter, Mourning thought about playing inside.
As a result, he didn't score much, but Rodman made two offensive fouls!
As soon as Mourning turned around and swung his elbow, Rodman lay flat.
As soon as Mourning shoved Rodman, Rodman raised his arms high to attract the referee's attention and pretend to be innocent.
But Rodman pressed Mourning, blocked the basket, and could get started at any time, which made Mourning have to use rough movements to get rid of the big worm.
Mourning's inside offense just fell into a loop.
Seriously, even Shay had never seen anyone so brazen.
But it's really cool for this kind of person to be his teammate!
Mo Ning was so upset that he didn't dare to act recklessly now.
There was no way, Mo Ning could only hold the ball slowly and face the frame, and after making two triple threat moves, he accelerated and burst strongly!
Mourning managed to get into the box, squeezed past Rodman and jumped up to the frame.
However, as soon as the basketball was lifted, the African mountain was full of heads!
Counting Shay's two, Mourning has already been risked 5 times in this game!
That's why it's hard to have a player who can beat his title of "the most beaten man".
Not only can he be beaten in a fancy way, but anyone can beat him, and he is not picky than the big sister in the net stockings on the street.
The Lakers' restricted area is impregnable, and Mourning is either taken or fouled, and it is simply difficult to start.
The inside line can't be played, so what about the outside line?
Shay smiled with 4 blocks and 4 steals: "You can try it." ”
After a round, the Heat made a comeback.
Hardaway wanted to single-handedly play McMillan, who came off the bench, but a change of direction didn't make room.
So, Hardaway leaned back against McMillan to avoid a steal. Then, he turned his back and wanted to turn around.
But the moment Hardaway turned around, he was taken aback.
Because Shay didn't know when he had "teleported" to him, he turned around like this, which was equivalent to just turning into Shay's arms.
That's the defensive pressure Shay gives him, he's always everywhere!
If you hesitate at all, you'll be caught in the middle of Shay!
In the face of this kind of thing that has been sent to the arms, don't that be the hole in your brain.
Shay immediately got his hands on it, and his hands pressed directly on Hardaway's ball.
Hardaway also clung to the ball, unwilling to give up possession, even if it was a scrum.
But what Shay fancies, sooner or later, is Shay's.
Jumping balls? You want to be beautiful!
Shay hugged the basket and pulled it directly, overturning Hardaway and forcibly snatching the basketball away!
The Heat's offense missed again, and this time, there was not even a chance to shoot!
In the second half today, the Lakers tortured the Heat in this way.
The inside line can't be played, and the outside line can't be scored.
The third quarter was guarded with 10 points per quarter.
So now that there are just over two minutes left in the fourth quarter, how many points did the Heat score?
9 points.
In the fourth quarter, the whole Heat team has only scored 9 points so far!
And after that steal just now, Shay took advantage of the situation and counterattacked and scored a layup.
Shay's stats became 35 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 5 steals, and 4 blocks!
At this point, the Heat trailed by 19 points.
There is almost no suspense in the game.
At this point, the only suspense is.
Can the Heat break the curse of not scoring 70 points against the Lakers!
Today's game has been played so far, and the Heat's single-game score has just stuck to 68 points. With just one more goal, the Heat could break that spell.
But this ball, Heat fans have been waiting for two minutes!
Just now, after Shay steals Hardaway, the Heat have not scored for two minutes.
Sam. Smith's face was like ashes, he had calculated well, Mourning, Hardaway and Mashburn scored 20 points alone, which is 60 points.
As long as the others don't score -2 points, the Heat can score 70 percent points.
The result?
Against the Lakers today, the Heat simply don't have any players who can score 20 points.
Mashburn was even more defended by Shay and only scored 6 points!
Shay is not just trying to beat the Heat, he's trying to make history by limiting opponents to just 70 points in five consecutive games!
Shay was going to tear up the book as if he had just torn up the book. Smith's face was completely torn off and the feet were stepped up!
You say Lao Tzu is just luck? That Lao Tzu not only wants to win, but also to win enough sensations!
The Heat players don't know what to do right now, the Lakers' defense has crumpled their confidence into slag, and their morale has hit rock bottom.
So in the next attack, the Heat directly didn't dare to shoot the whole team.
The ball kept coming and going, and everyone regarded basketball as a hot potato, for fear that a hesitant Shay would come and snatch your basketball, for fear that a breakthrough Rodman would rush out and put you down, for fear of impacting the basket, and eating Uncle Mu's hot pot.
The ball passed for 22 seconds, and the last 2 seconds were given to Mashburn.
Mashburn:
Why is it always Lao Tzu who catches the ball last?
Mashburn threw the ball out in desperation, but Shay turned him down.
A block that flew the basketball fan directly to the other half.
It was Shay's fifth block of the game
This means that for the first time in Shay's career, and the first time in the NBA since 1995, someone has scored 5X5 data!
And, the highest-scoring 5X5 stats in history!
Previously, the 5X5 stats with the highest scores belonged to Big Dreams.
Olajuwon had 34 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 8 blocks and 6 steals in '93.
And Shay today, 35 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 5 steals, 5 blocks, the highest scoring 5X5 data record!
The basketball rolls out of bounds and just rolls to Sam. Smith at his feet.
At this time, Sam. Smith's face was pale, and his eyes were vacant.
He knew his career was over.
Sports columnists are not the same as sports writers, sports authors, just send pictures and copy book reviews.
But sports columnist, what you write has to be realistic, and your analysis has to make sense.
You have to really understand the ball, you can be convincing, and your articles can be read.
You don't have to look at some sports people who are quite funny about "Ibaka O'Neal wide" at every turn, but what he says sometimes does stand up to scrutiny.
And Sam. The grave mistake Smith is now making is that the book he wrote is grossly inconsistent with the facts!
You say that a player wins a game only by luck, and he sees Shay breaking two all-time records in one game!
Later Sam. How else does Smith mix?
At this moment, a tall figure walked up to Smith.
Smith came back to his senses and looked up, it was Shay.
But Shay didn't come to pick up the ball, but put his hands on his hips, stepped on the basketball, and looked at the humble Sam proudly:
"You can go out and burn all your books, Sam."
Sam. Smith, the guy who once turned the Bulls locker room upside down, who was able to pull wool out of Jordan's head.
This time, it was planted in Shay's hands!
For more than a minute of the game, Sam didn't know how he was going to go.
He sat in his place as if he were a walking corpse until the end of the game beeped.
At the end of the game, the score on the live big screen was 69-90.
The Los Angeles Lakers have played five games in a row to limit opponents' points to less than 70!
Even the Heat, who started 8-1, even the Heat, who won by 10 points against the Bulls, could not escape doom under the terror reign of Shay and the Lakers!
Trailing by 10 points from the first half, the band ended up winning by 21 points.
Shay's Reign of Terror is only truly emerging today!
After the game, as soon as the reporters put the microphone to Shay's mouth, Shay said directly: "What's going on?" How do I feel a little cold in Miami? ”
The Miami Heat's team name means hot in English.
And Shay deliberately said that Miami was a little cold, implying that he had completely extinguished the heat!
Immediately afterwards, Shay pointed to Sam, who was sitting on the bench. Smith:
"Except for that guy, he's going outside to light a fire to warm himself up, he's already cold."
This wave, Shay, who has a very high level of culture, played another pun.
Out cold has the meaning of getting out of the cold, but it also means "numb".
So, Shay was actually saying, "That guy has lost hemp!" ”
The reporters all shook their heads, in terms of milk people, Shay is really ahead of the times.
Meanwhile, in the tunnel of the players, Mourning, who had lost the game, was stopped by a local Miami reporter:
"Alonzo, in fact, the Heat's defense today is not bad, although Shay scored 35 points, but the shooting rate is just over 40%. He scored 35 points today because of his strong desire to attack and a lot of personal shots.
Is it fair to say that you actually have the means to restrain Shay?
As long as the team strengthens its offense next time, will it have a chance to win the Lakers? ”
The Miami reporter is actually helping Mourning find a step, not mentioning that the Heat scored less than 70, from leading by 10 points to losing by 21 points.
Instead, he praised the Heat's defense and made the Heat players look to the future.
But Mo Ning didn't dare to ask for such a compliment, and when he heard this question, he immediately said five "Nos" in a row in horror.
"No, no, no, no! Today, Shay's low shooting rate is that Shay's own hand is not good, and it has nothing to do with our defense! ”
Mo Ning really doesn't dare to offend Shay at all now, and he has a strong desire to survive!
Today, Sam. Smith just said casually, and let Shay go on a killing spree.
Mo Ning pondered, if he said that the Heat had prevented Shay, the next time they met, wouldn't the Heat even be able to score a special 60 points!
Don't dare, don't dare
The reporters were speechless, Mo Ning really wanted to implement the dog-licking defensive method throughout the season, and he still didn't dare to talk nonsense after the game was over.
No way, it's not that Mo Ning is too cowardly.
It's that Shay is terrible!
But neither Shay nor Mourning's interviews were the highlight of the evening.
The highlight of the night, after the game.
Television footage showed several fire engines and some firefighters ready in the wide plaza outside the American Airlines Center.
Fans outside the cordon were also heckling, pointing to the pile of books and shouting "Burn that pile of garbage"!
Amid the shouts of the fans and the noise of the propellers of the TV helicopters, Sam. Smith finally walked out of the arena.
And as promised.
Sam. Smith will burn all these new books with his own hands!
Of course, for the sake of safety and control, Smith will only burn the hundreds of books in front of him, and it is impossible to really destroy all the books that have been printed.
But after tonight, it is estimated that no bookstore will put on the shelves this broken book that no one has bought, and his books are not much different from being completely destroyed.
Sam. Smith walked out dejectedly and took the torch that had been prepared.
Then, he faced the camera, his face full of helplessness.
Obviously the Heat led by 10 points at halftime, and it was clear that the Heat had limited Shay's shooting percentage to just barely over 40%, but
Helpless Sam. Smith ended up leaving only this sentence in front of the camera: "Shay, he's stronger than luck!" Much more powerful! ”
In this sentence, Smith is equivalent to denying the entire content of his book!
With that, Sam threw the torch into the pile of books.
The flames burned the books that denigrated Shay and devoured Sam. Smith's career.
His body was hot, but his heart was as cold as a dead man.
It was his defeat, and it was Shay's complete victory.
Shay did it, and no one could slander him and use him to make money at the same time!
The end of touching porcelain Shay is to play with fire and self-immolation!
In the winter of 1996, the winter fire made the new NBA season extremely hot.
It's going to be a fire that will definitely go down in the history of basketball.
This is a historic victory for a basketball player against an enemy off the basketball court!
From now on, people who want to make money by talking about top stars must weigh whether you can really afford to mess with that person.
And this raging fire is also like Shay's career.
It's heating up fast!
This season has only just begun, and Shay has already made such a big noise.
God knows what Shea will do in the next 72 games
Today's 10,000-word update is present! It's the Nth day of continuous 10,000-word updates, and the conscience of the old man kneels down and begs for a monthly pass!
