In recent times, with Wade about to give, there have been a lot of unfriendly voices for the Heat.

"Why does Wade want to come back? The Heat are already second in the East. Wade is not here, and the Heat's record is still better than before! ”

"You see, during Wade's absence, Stone exploded. When Wade comes back, will Stone be willing to hand over so many shots? ”

"Show No. 5 and Show No. 44, there will be a competition!"

"The Heat are going to be messy!"

……

Many media are creating contradictions between Li Lei and Wade, and they are also very clear-eyed.

"In the past few days, Wade has not practiced with Li Lei, they used to be together."

On January 28, James invited Wade to dinner, but Wade didn't bring Li Lei. Last time, the three of them were together. ”

"When Li Lei sent the Spring Festival wishes, he @所有队友, but only Haslem and Wade were missing."

……

Li Lei looked angry.

These media are simply making up nothing and speculating.

Li Lei didn't practice with Wade because Wade had just recovered from his injury, so he was not suitable for additional training, and the amount of exercise should not be too large.

James didn't invite Li Lei to dinner because Bill Duffy brought the head of Nike to negotiate the contract, and Li Lei notified James and Wade in advance.

Li Lei didn't send a Spring Festival blessing @Haslem and Wade, because these two guys were at his house and ate all the dumplings in the refrigerator made by Li's father and Li's mother.

That's the truth!

In the face of overwhelming news, Li Lei was inevitably affected.

Not to mention Wade.

Wade knew what was going on, but he just didn't feel well.

This is where the "commissar" Spoelstra comes into play.

After training in the afternoon, Coach Spo called Li Lei and Wade together.

"Don't care what the media says, it's all false, you two know it in your hearts, and the team knows it."

Spoelstra gets straight to the point: "Actually, it's not difficult to understand. ”

"These media are relying on you players to make money, create conflicts between you, and attract the attention of fans. If all the players are in harmony, then the media will have no topic and will naturally lose their interests. So even if you are in harmony, they will write you as a life and death enemy. ”

"The simplest thing is that ESPN does the player and team rankings every year, and you should know that this thing is not accurate at all. A player may have been ranked 14th in the previous year and 2nd in the second year, and he has been retired for a long time, how did he improve his status in history? ”

"That's where ESPN comes in, no matter how you rank it, there are always fans who aren't happy because their favorite stars aren't ranked high enough. And this will generate topics and generate benefits! ”

"That's how the media makes money."

Li Lei and Wade suddenly realized.

Wade asked, "If the coalition knows about the media scribbles, why don't they care?" ”

Spoelstra laughed: "Why bother? ”

"While the media creates topics and attracts the attention of fans, they are also promoting the NBA! It's a win-win! The alliance has money to make, and I wish the media would say a few more words! ”

"And if the league has money, these team owners will make money, you players will make more money, and our coaches can also increase their income!"

Li Lei and Wade both understood: the NBA is a business league, and interests are the root of everything.

Spoelstra finally said: "You know these things, don't worry too much. As a player, playing well is the number one thing. There is only one way to defeat the rumors: victory! ”

Li Lei and Wade glanced at each other and nodded to each other.

Night.

Quick Loan Center Arena.

The Heat played first: Cato, Odom, Li Lei, Jones, Wade.

Home team: Cavaliers came out later.

Center: Big Z.

Power forward: Boozer.

Small forward: Eric Williams.

Defenders: McGinnis, James.

James' "big brother" Ricky Davis played only 22 games before being sent to Boston by the Cavaliers.

James' core position is more solid, and he is already the unique core of the Cavaliers.

Jump ball.

Cato pressed Big Z and turned the ball back into his own half.

Wade received the ball and slowly advanced to the front court to hand it to Odom.

Odom organizes at the free-throw line.

Jones Sr. was a cover to help Li Lei get rid of James.

Odom's pass arrived immediately, and Li Lei received the ball.

But McGinnis pounced to make up for the defense, and the speed was very fast, and Li Lei didn't have a chance to shoot.

However, Li Lei saw Wade cut without the ball and cut inside.

Li Lei is a straight stopper.

Wade caught the ball, rose to the ground, and carried the big Z bombing basket like a cannonball.

Bang!

2：0。

"Roar!"

Wade, who landed on the ground, roared angrily, he was injured during this time, and he was also uncomfortable, and this ball poured out all the grievances in his heart.

The Cavaliers attack.

James with the ball.

Li Lei is still an old tactic, putting James in a big step, preventing sudden bursts and not shooting.

James tried to shoot a three-pointer.

Bang dang!

No.

Katoka is the main big Z and Boozer, and struggles to protect the rebounds in the backcourt. Then give it to Wade to play a fast attack.

Wade took the lead and rushed forward.

But James stepped back quickly, clinging to Wade's side, waiting for an opportunity to block.

Wade is also not strong, a pass from behind the back that does not look at people.

Li Lei, who was keeping up, caught the ball, took off directly into the air, and bombarded the basket with both hands.

Bang!

4：0。

The ball is converted, and James breaks through the ball.

McGinnis' three-pointer was interfered with by Wade and missed the basket.

However, Boozer made a sprint and made a rebound.

4：2。

The Heat attack.

Odom came up to block Wade, who took the opportunity to get rid of McGinnis and go into the paint.

The Cavaliers shrank to the basket and wrapped Wade.

Wade distributed the ball to Li Lei, who was ambushed in the bottom corner.

James reacted quickly and strode out.

Li Lei didn't stick to the ball either, and instantly handed it to the old Jones at a 45-degree angle.

Jones Sr. adjusts and shoots from beyond the three-point line.

Swish!

Pregnant.

7:2。

The Cavaliers attack.

James couldn't break through Li Lei and summoned Boozer to come out to block the demolition.

Li Lei noticed it, squeezed through Boozer in advance, and continued to keep up with James.

Big Z came out to make a second block for James.

Li Lei was blocked this time.

James got rid of Li Lei.

But Wade reacted quickly and came over to delay James.

Just in an instant, Li Lei ran over again and continued to block in front of James.

James is going to vomit blood: haunted guy!

Seeing that the 24-second time was about to expire, James had no chance and gave the ball to McGinnis.

McGinnis made a hasty shot and missed the shot with Wade's interference.

Bang dang!

Odom picked up the defensive rebound.

After Wade returned, the Heat's better offense was secondary.

Mainly defensively.

Previously, Alston played the starting No. 1 position, because of the size problem, facing slightly stronger opponents were defensive holes.

Now that Wade is back, this has become a strong point for the Heat.

Li Lei + Jones + Wade, the Heat's outside defense is terrifying.

And these three are not only good defensively, they have a high ball quotient, and they are also willing to help their teammates.

They complemented each other's defenses and helped defend each other, turning the Heat's outside defense into an iron bucket.

And with the iron bucket-like outside defense, Cato and Odom sitting under the basket will be less impacted, and the interior defense will naturally improve.

The combination of inside and outside is the complete defensive system.

James happened to bump into the Heat's full crew, and he can only be said to be unlucky for him who is only good at breaking through now.
