On the evening of May 30, 2005, after the G4 of the Western Conference Finals, the three of them were still discussing the victory of the SuperSonics in the back studio of ESPN.

Relying on a wave of 26:36 in the third quarter, the SuperSonics finally defeated the Spurs, and the big score came to 2:2.

At 89:101, despite Lewis' injury, the Spurs still didn't take their chances and failed to get the match point.

Ray Allen played 41 minutes tonight, 12-of-20, 3-of-7 from beyond the three-point line, and 5-of-6 from the free-throw line, scoring a team-high 32 points!

Duncan of the Spurs was 10-of-19 from the field and 14-of-17 from the free-throw line, with 35 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 2 blocks and 5 turnovers.

In the absence of a main player, the Spurs made 20 turnovers, a statistic that is simply not up to par for a championship team.

The SuperSonics were able to play perfectly in the third quarter, and they couldn't do without Luke Ridno's play.

This talent was digested extremely quickly, and Li You didn't feel too many changes in his body.

The 76ers had a great time back then, and Iverson won the scoring title on Li You's head.

O'Neal didn't like this kind of home atmosphere, and noticed that Pat Riley was still sitting in the front row with a blank face, pouting secretly, and walked quickly to Li You's side:

On May 31, the Sport Center program continued to review Lee Woo's wonderful goals in the playoffs this season.

With just over 2 minutes left in the game, the Knicks fans in the arena began to celebrate wildly, tying an outrageous all-time record!

After all, after the game, you can't always replay because of a penalty

'It's not bad, at least it means I feel right, but the game is over, we got match point, it's time to move forward.'

A player won't go through too many Finals in his entire career, and O'Neal has to be numb to losing to the same opponents in a row in his prime

The sports media gathered around Wade, noticing his limping appearance, and someone immediately asked:

He was 14-of-25, 4-of-9 from beyond the three-point line, 10-of-12 from the free-throw line, and finished with 42 points, seven rebounds, 10 assists, two steals and two turnovers.

Lee Woo only played 32 minutes and easily recorded a double-double of 32 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers.

The Miami Herald is also criticizing O'Neal's post-game remarks, the series is gone, and fans need to vent.

I thought that I could win the "Most Beautiful Calf Award" with the blessing of talent, but unfortunately, the body is getting thicker and thicker, and the leg lines are muscular

Before the interview, Hill was still chatting with Lee, and both of them thought that fishing in Miami was not bad, and it was suitable for traveling with their families.

After the sports media frantically blew X, by the way, the championship was loaned, and the record was tied, New York fans can rightly declare:

"This belongs to the days of the Knicks!"

By the end of the season, the top 100 goals of the season, these two will follow.

"Parker, Ginobili and Udri combined for 10 turnovers, and it's hard for them to win in a series like the division finals."

"Wade had a chance to be the hero of the team, but Lee finished the game!"

After the game, McMillan coach smiled from ear to ear and praised the performance of his players:

The Yahoo Sports reporter felt that Wade had a chance to take over Iverson's banner, and he was also a shooting guard and also wore the No. 3 jersey, maybe this is the opponent of Li You in the future:

"Basketball is round, anything is possible, injuries, personnel changes, it will affect the record."

In the afternoon, when the Heat warmed up, Mourning was also depressed and no longer gave interviews to promote the Heat's basketball philosophy.

"Wade, with a knee injury, will you start tonight?"

A margin of more than 10 points is an insurmountable chasm for most teams, and the Spurs are no exception.

Without any pressure, it's natural to let yourself go.

"I can't describe the impact Lee had on the game until now, he changed modern basketball, he brought the NBA into the perimeter era."

Everyone looked at Wade's green face and couldn't help but think of the last scoring guard Allen Iverson who was beaten by Li You.

O'Neill didn't have as much emotion as his younger brother, and he just calmly stated when he attended the press conference:

"I've seen Lee's crazy performance in the finals, and I'm not surprised by the result."

The sophomore shot 7-of-7 from the field in the third quarter, including 1-of-1 from beyond the three-point line, and scored 15 points on 100 percent shooting.

"In my opinion, the Spurs' poor backcourt tonight was the reason for the loss."

"Good luck, Wade! Don't give up, this is the second season of your career. ”

"That's the price of growth, Wade did a great job, he got a team-high score and only made three turnovers in a game."

"Lee deserves his contract, he's bringing more to New York, so we're going to vote for him, and if Duncan still keeps that basketball attitude, then he's going to get nothing."

The Knicks fans at the scene jumped and jumped, and Li You casually handed the trophy to his teammates next to him, listening to the head coach's sycophancy, and a smile appeared on his face.

The shooting drill opened the gambling game, and everyone shouted and threw from the midfield.

Not only were the players happy, but the coaching staff was also involved, and no one was worried about the series, and even if they lost tonight, they still had a two-game lead.

"It's the leader's responsibility to lose, Duncan should look at Lee's performance in the Eastern Conference Finals G3!"

"The Heat are not going to give up, we will fight for the fans."

"Duncan didn't step up when the team needed it the most."

Considering that O'Neill has lost so many duels against Lee You, TNT's reporters understand the shark.

Wade lost for the first time in such a big scene, he didn't like O'Neal's attitude in his heart, and when he came to Li You's side, he said stiffly with a stiff face:

Wade had a question mark on his face when he heard this comfort, he has been very successful this season, and the division finals are also a height that many players cannot reach.

In the comfort of everyone, Wade still felt inexplicable when he left

The Knicks, who got the match point, were all smiling when they warmed up in the afternoon.

"The Heat made 50 free throws throughout the game, and in the final minute, the referees misjudged."

It is difficult to win three games in a row, Wade has been in a low mood for the past two days, and when talking about the game, he has lost the passion of the previous days:

"I promise the fans that as long as the series is not over, I will keep playing."

Stephen A. Smith on the side snorted Duncan angrily:

However, thinking of his physical condition, Wade secretly decided to go to special training in the offseason, and he also wanted to become as strong as Li You.

“MVP！ MVP！ MVP！ ”

Heat fans are still cheering for the home team's big win.

Wade moved his body with the help of the medical team, his knees were almost untenable, and the frenzied basket slammed into his body with a huge load.

O'Neal is still the same, the shark seems to have turned into hob meat, calmly accepting defeat, looking like he was losing numbly, and the warm-up is to practice free throws.

He was happy with Wade's performance in the series, but Stan Van Gundy's on-the-spot adjustments made Pat Riley frown.

When the final hum sounded, the score was fixed at 112:87, and the Knicks swept the Heat to reach the Finals again.

Raja Bale hit back-to-back three-pointers in the left corner, and Fisher, who came off the bench, also hit back-to-back jumpers at the top of the arc.

Everyone laughed along, an excuse on the lips of ball critics and a powerful "proof" to question the lack of gold content of the Knicks' championship.

It wasn't a fluke to knock out the Pistons, at least in some respects they already had what it takes to be a championship team.

However, to everyone's disappointment, Wade was knocked out of the baseline by Li You in a breakthrough in the second quarter, and he could no longer continue the game because of a knee injury.

If they fight for an away win, how can they end up in such a passive situation?

The Heat were outstanding, with 50 free throws outrageous, but they only made nine turnovers in G3.

As a result, all these years have passed, and the 76ers have begun to believe in the process, establish a new core, and embark on a rebuilding journey.

"We did see Lee's hunger for victory, and the Knicks' stellar record over the years has made everyone almost forget that he's the deadliest killer in the league."

"GOAT welcomes any challenge!"

From another point of view, this is also a good thing for rookie players, when Li You's background board can be remembered by everyone, the outdated Iverson, Kobe Bryant and others don't have this opportunity.

There are also benefits to the "strong dialogue", and [Gary Payton's extraordinary defensive agility] has disappeared by marking key players in a row.

The Knicks missed the outside line for two consecutive games, and tonight everyone regained their touch and hit hard when the overall situation was decided.

Without the outside core, the uniform cheering sound of the American Airlines arena gradually turned into a noisy shouting and scolding.

Looking at the other party's serious attitude, Li You smiled with relief, it had been a long time since anyone had spoken harshly to him:

"I like players with fighting spirit! The future belongs to the young, and maybe you could consider training with Tim Grover. ”

Wade, who carried out the final attack, almost cried in the face of the stunner and apologized to the fans after the game.

Compared with Li You, D'Antoni is even more excited, three consecutive championships are in sight, and he is about to become a historical coach!

The mustache's face turned red, and after raising his glass again and again, he calmed down, handed the trophy to Li You, sorted out the red scarf, and then took the microphone and said excitedly:

"It's been an incredible three years for me, it's hard to coach a championship team, but luckily I met Lee!"

The oil-headed coach has not been interviewed in the past few days, and he has not criticized O'Neill again.

Divisional champions also have trophies, and watching their opponents win awards at their home stadium, many fans who bought tickets are depressed.

Without the distraction of the Heat fans, Lee You's fans cheered and began to enjoy this victory night.

'I don't know, no one can predict what's going to happen next season.

Wade, who has been a background board for two days, is naturally in a bad mood, and when he turns on the TV and comes to a mainstream sports channel, he can see himself lying on the floor covering his face.

He is indeed famous, and even fans who don't pay attention to NBA games and only like to watch highlights know that Wade made a mistake and was killed.

Playing 42 points, 10-of-25, 12-of-18 free throws, 32 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 turnovers, Wade's play in the G3 game was perfect.

Wiping away tears, Wade couldn't accept his way out of the locker room, and he was disappointed in his knee.

"Mourning is right, NBA players are human beings, they're not superheroes, but what do we want to see?"

"Now that they're losing, the G5 game is going to be completely different, and Duncan should tell the coach to let him play 42 minutes instead of just playing 32 minutes."

At the end of the third quarter, even Barnes, who came off the bench, seized the opportunity to open the space and continued to convert Li You's assists into points.

"The SuperSonics' injuries will affect their strength, and the Spurs still have a huge advantage."

"As a sophomore rookie, Wade's performance is historic, he's so much better than Kobe Bryant in the same period, and our combination will be successful."

Pat Riley sat in the front row under the basket with a blank face.

"After the Celtics, the most dominant team in the NBA is about to be born!"

If you want to win, in addition to being ruthless to yourself, you must also be strict with the players and practice hard!

Stan Van Gundy was too accommodating to O'Neal's emotions, and after this division final, Pat Riley felt that maybe he should take the reins.

Host John Saunders has rarely commented on the game since the Auburn Hills palace incident was complained about.

“？”

This remark upset Miami fans, and O'Neal, who lost the game, should empathize with them, instead of saying cold things after the game

The Miami Herald's two-day column doesn't talk about the results of the series, except for painting pie for fans, it's criticizing O'Neal.

"I'll win it back!"

ESPN's reporters only heard the Miami fishing phrase and immediately felt like they had got the big news.

Before the start of the game, Wade, who was depressed, did not play pull-ups on the basket and honestly waited for the kick-off.

Popovich is a tactical abandonment, and Duncan, who is plagued by plantar fasciitis, is not yet ready to fight hard.

Soon the TNT staff pushed out the golden spherical trophy, and on the Knicks' side, the coaching staff and staff also gave the championship hats to everyone.

During the warm-up, Lee Woo practiced free throws with sick Hill, and the night before, his performance at the free throw line failed to meet expectations.

'We beat the injury! The lads are hungry for the title and now the series is a best-of-three and we are confident of winning the game. ”

"God knows the result! Stay fit, Shaq, and maybe we'll meet again in the division finals next year. ”

TNT, as the broadcaster, saw Li You walking towards everyone, and immediately asked questions before and after:

"Lee, what do you think of G3's referee report?"

“.”

"If the Eastern Conference teams were the same, maybe we'd continue to win the divisional championships, you know, the dividends of the times."

The Spurs scored just 14 points in the second quarter, and with the lack of a timely response in the third quarter, the bench played most of the final quarter.

The NBA will admit to misjudgment after the game, but this kind of afterthought is really useless.

Tonight will be the Eastern Conference Finals G4, the New York Times did not forget to continue to attack the opponent, and deliberately chose a photo of Wade lying on the free throw line with his hands covering his face and Li You roaring in celebration after the kill:

"Crying Miami!"

Li You couldn't stop the referee's extra play, and the Knicks also made 41 free throws, and the balance whistle was generally reasonable.

“Wow！”

After Kenyan Durin came on, Li You will still be caught in the bag, but the defensive pressure will drop sharply.

G3 O'Neal played 41 minutes, 9-of-15, 8-of-12 free throws, and scored 26 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block and 3 turnovers.

Suddenly advanced the time to the next season, Li You raised his eyebrows, and did not follow the loan:

Seeing that Li You was in a good mood, soon the Yahoo Sports reporter also asked out loud:

After 22 minutes of play, Wade did not rest in the first quarter, and when he left the game, he limped to the players' tunnel, and fans on both sides applauded him.

The director also pointed the camera at Wade at the right time, refused to be supported by the staff, and threw the jersey on the ground.

Before the start of the game at 8 p.m. that night, Heat fans who entered early saw TNT staff preparing for a simple award ceremony.

Tim Legler, a white point guard who has played in the NBA for many years, naturally doesn't analyze the game as unreasonable as his partner:

"The series needed to win four games, and Duncan was outstanding, and with that stat in a limited amount of time, we couldn't have asked him to do more."

Li You didn't participate in the gambling game, and everyone used to take him to play a few games together, but since the long-distance three-point shooting became more and more accurate, no one sent money.

"Physique is becoming more and more important, and hopefully both teams in the finals will stay healthy!"

In the studio, in addition to discussing McMillan's tactical adjustments, the three were also holding a meeting with Duncan.

"Lee, congratulations! Looks like you're going to win a championship again, and the Spurs aren't a match. ”

Looking at Li You's back, Wade showed a thoughtful look, it would cost a lot to go to this well-known trainer for guidance.

By the end of the quarter, O'Neal had already changed his clothes and he wasn't going to play garbage time

As the clock wore on, the cheers in the American Airlines arena grew louder, and the disappointed Heat fans kept their traditional virtues and left the court early.

Before Craig Sager could ask a question, D'Antoni couldn't stop.

"I know, maybe Popovich limits his playing time, but Duncan should understand that they only need one more win to seal the win."

John Saunders glanced helplessly at the big mouth next to him, he didn't want to label Duncan:

"What we want to see is a superstar deciding a game at a crucial moment, and what we want to see is an incredible performance from them!"

Howard, who was shut-up, and Wade, who was stealed, were pulled out again.

"Eight consecutive Eastern Conference titles, Lee, do you think the Knicks have a chance to break the record set by the Celtics?"

"Steals, ultra-long three-pointers, Lee shattered the illusions of Miami fans, the Knicks got the match point, and they are on the verge of achieving the achievement of winning the division championship for the eighth consecutive year!"

At the end of the warm-up, Wade stumbled a little on his feet, and he knew that this physical state would be more difficult to limit Li You.

So far in this series, Li You's free throw shooting rate has come to 90.3%, and he has always been strict with himself, and he really shouldn't have conceded two goals.

The front-row fans left the stadium early, and the American Airlines arena looked a little empty.

As Craig Sager handed the trophy to D'Antoni and the mustache lifted it, the arena erupted in cheers again.

Li You patted O'Neill, who didn't show any pain, but continued to blow X with a smile.

John Saunders wanted to take the opportunity to summarize, but Stephen A. Smith picked up the conversation at this time and proudly bragged X:

With the division championship in hand, the thought in his mind moved, and Li You's smile became brighter and brighter:

"Dwyan-Wade's Extraordinary Acceleration"
