Chapter 51: Snatched Wade's lines
Although the Warriors' bench played hard, the Heat's bench was clearly stronger.
Haslem, White, Alstom, Carlos, are all fierce generals.
The Heat chased the score again.
After more than 5 minutes in the second quarter, the Heat took another 4-point lead.
Old Nelson couldn't sit still, and quickly replaced the main force again.
Heat head coach Spo didn't dare to slack off, and also replaced Wade and other main players.
Although the score was ahead, Wade held a grudge, and he was very uncomfortable by Zhou Yang in the first quarter just now.
So as soon as he came up, he played very aggressively and attacked wildly.
However, Zhou Yang took the [Death Coiling] skill to the extreme.
Just over 4 minutes into the second quarter, Zhou Yang completed 5 steals!
It's a robber on the pitch!
And four of those five steals were made by Wade.
Under Zhou Yang's strict defense, the Heat's offense came to a standstill.
Curry, on the offensive end, has more room to play and played with the momentum of his college days.
At the end of the second quarter, the Warriors not only led by 5 points, but also allowed Wade to be whistled for 4 fouls.
This is simply worse for the Heat.
At halftime, the score came to 67:62, Zhou Yang scored 21 points in the first half, and Wade only scored 7 points.
And Wade's 7 points were scored in the first quarter, and in the second quarter, under Zhou Yang's strict defense, he didn't score a single point!
……
The Heat locker room is as quiet as death.
Wade has never suffered such a big deflated since he entered the NBA league.
Especially in the face of two rookies, Wade trembled with anger when he played such a game.
No one else dared to speak, and Haslem, as the boss of the locker room, needed to persuade Wade.
"Wade, don't be so angry, don't you only fall behind by 5 points, you can catch up in a few minutes!"
Wade doesn't give face to others, but also to give face to Haslem.
"I'm fine, Haslem, I'm just mad at myself."
Then he faced the other teammates and shouted: "Brothers, you must catch up with the score in the third quarter, don't be discouraged!" ”
The Heat's players know very well that although the score difference is not large, on the field, Zhou Yang suppressed Wade.
If the star of the house is not strong, others are not easy to play.
Seeing that his teammates all bowed their heads and didn't speak, Wade knew that everyone was a little frustrated.
Wade stopped talking, he made up his mind that he must play a different performance in the third quarter and suppress Zhou Yang.
……
The second half of the game began, and Wade really seemed to be a different person, very irritable.
Two consecutive breakaways, a dunk, and an assist tied the score.
Zhou Yang then began to perform again.
Wade is not a reckless man, he called cover for the two breakthroughs just now, and it was a double cover, blocking Zhou Yang.
But Zhou Yang will not let Wade go.
Just when Wade broke through for the third time, Zhou Yang crashed into the covering Beasley and killed behind Wade.
Wade thought that Zhou Yang had been blocked, and was about to make a layup.
Who knew that a black shadow jumped high from behind, stretched out its long arms, and snapped!
Gave Wade a sturdy pegboard hat!
Wade was furious, looked back, and was stunned.
It turned out to be Zhou Yang again!
Zhou Yang's pegboard hat once again plunged the Oracle Arena into a frenzy, and the enthusiasm of the fans was instantly ignited.
The atmosphere is here, and Zhou Yang is also up.
He jumped onto the tech table and shouted, "This is my horse!" ”
Fans held up their mobile phones and recorded Zhou Yang's arrogant famous scene.
"Zhou Yangniu pen, it's too good!"
"Oh buy karma! O gods! ”
"I love you! Zhou Yang! I'm going to give you a monkey! ”
……
Wade turned his head to look at Beasley with a grim face, not speaking, but also full of resentment.
Beasley hastened to explain: "He...... He knocked me out of the way just now, and the force was too strong, and I didn't block it......"
Wade was not only angry that Zhou Yang was covered with a big hat, but what was even more annoying was that Zhou Yang actually robbed him of his lines!
Under Zhou Yang's defense, Wade was dumb again.
The Heat's offense stalled again, and the Warriors played a wave!
With 6:51 left in the third quarter, the score came to 78:66 and the Warriors led by 12 points.
Spoo called another timeout.
Although Spo did a good job in the pre-match preparation, Zhou Yang's improvement on the defensive end still surprised Spo.
This is not the strength that a rookie should have!
In fact, Spo also thinks too much, although there are very few superstars who have debuted at the peak in history, they are not nothing.
Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Chamberlain all played good numbers in their rookie years.
And Johnson won the championship in the first year, and he was even FMVP!
Although Zhou Yang has only played one game, he has already shown great potential, and Spo can only be more and more shocked.
During the timeout, Spo adjusted his tactics and he removed Wade from the ball.
As the third quarterback in history, Wade is not only sharp with the ball, but also top-notch off-ball ability.
Now Zhou Yang seems to be holding Wade to death, and the Heat are in trouble, so Spo temporarily let him play without the ball.
Zhou Yang's defense was too strong, so he could only avoid his edge.
Wade wasn't a ball-type superstar, and he did what Spo had to say.
The timeout ended, the game resumed, and Wade began to run without the ball.
Not to mention, this tactic has worked temporarily, Zhou Yang has been staring at Wade for a few rounds, but found that Wade did not participate in the attack.
This is equivalent to Wade and Zhou Yang.
Other Heat players are also very competitive, facing other Warriors players, and they have played several consecutive offenses.
Zhou Yang frowned, knowing that he had been fooled.
But this little trick can't be difficult for Zhou Yang.
In the next attack, Wade crouched in the bottom corner again, and Zhou Yang faced Wade, seemingly staring at him with all his might.
Wesley asked for the ball in the paint zone, turned around and shook off Margety.
This is Wesley's trick, he is very strong in singles, and when he shakes off defenders, he is a jumper, silky smooth.
That's how he got four points.
Who knows, just when he was about to hit the pitch for the third time, Zhou Yang didn't know where he came out, and he was a big hat with his head and face!
Wesley felt that as soon as his eyes were dark, the ball was gone.
After Zhou Yang blocked, he grabbed the ball directly in his hand.
Grab your hat!
It's so humiliating.
Zhou Yang was not greedy, and immediately passed the ball to Curry, who had already started.
Curry crossed the halfway line and hit a three-point shot again!
Wade watched from the bottom corner and shook his head angrily, it seemed that his off-ball tactics had also failed.
Under the leadership of Zhou Yang, the Warriors withstood the Heat's counterattack and played another wave of small climaxes.
At the end of the third quarter, the score of the two teams was 97:72, and the Warriors led by 25 points!
The Heat are gone.
Zhou Yang and Curry clocked in again in three quarters and got off work.
Wade was defended by Zhou Yang and scored only 9 points in the game.
And Zhou Yang scored 28 points, 7 steals and 5 blocks!
