Chapter 59: Defeat Wade, Sword Aiming for the Championship (Seeking to Follow)
Doon has the ball, and with Doon's personal strength, he can score whenever he wants.
Wade is a no-ball play, and he has no consistent shooting ability, how many points can he score in a game just by scoring on air cuts and fast breaks?
What's more, Wade is still just a rookie, and his status in the Heat team is not high. Even if Wade runs without the ball, his teammates may not be able to pass the ball to Wade immediately.
It was for this reason that after more than 6 minutes in the first quarter, Wade cut to the basket and scored 2 points.
However, after Wade scored, Doon stopped inking, and immediately blocked and named Wade, and attacked the basket or scored to help his teammates.
"So fast!" Having personally defended Doon, Wade knew that Doon's back turn was also a fast horse.
Wade is amazingly explosive and faster than Doon, but he is still a little smaller than Doon in terms of stride.
Once Doon turned his back and led by half a body, Wade couldn't catch up with Doon.
"Dwyan, you should be more aggressive defensively! Don't let the No. 31 rookie on the opposite side easily run into the penalty area. ”
Faced with the complaints of his teammates, Wade could only nod and admit it.
Although Doon hit him by name with the help of blocking and picking, it was indeed his lack of ability to prevent Doon.
Wade really wanted to be tough in front of his good brother Doon, but unfortunately Doon was too strong and powerful.
Wade found that there was no way to fight against Doon's back.
Time passed quickly, and the first quarter played more than 9 minutes, and when Wade was off the court, Doon had already shot 2 of 3 and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 6 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists.
If nothing else, Doon has a 20+10 scoring assist double-double tonight, which shouldn't be a big problem.
18-26, at the end of the first quarter, the Lakers easily took an eight-point lead under Doane's offensive tandem team with the ball.
In the second quarter, Doon played a similar role to Wade, playing with a bench.
"Doon, let's have another fight!
I can't stop you, but you can't stop me!
I will prove to you that I am higher in rank and have more talent than you! ”
Wade was unwilling to be beaten by Doon all the time, so he took the initiative to challenge Doon.
After possessing the ball, Wade really got like a fish in water, and his score rose much faster than in the first quarter.
It is worth mentioning that perhaps in order to avenge the grudge in the first quarter, Wade also took the initiative to name Dune to fight.
Wade's style of play is relatively simple, in fact, it is similar to what Doon played in the first quarter, all of which are blocking and dismantling, and grasping misalignment.
The difference between the two is that Doon still plays the role of the central axis in the triangle offensive system, so when he launches an attack in the high post, he starts with his back to attract the defense, connects the team as the mainstay, and then finds opportunities to attack independently.
Wade doesn't have to think about connecting the team, just use explosiveness to hit the basket.
After the block, Wade seized the moment when Doon did not change the defense in time, and immediately took a step forward, and rushed to the basket with a European step that did not slow down.
Although he has not yet reached his prime, Wade has passed Doon relatively easily.
It's just that the hand work under the basket needs to be strengthened.
may be because the cheeks are not big enough, and Wade's finishing ability after the basket confrontation is obviously not at its peak.
In the first three minutes of the second quarter, Wade, who won a lot of balls, only handed in 4 shots and only scored 4 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.
Obviously, such a performance will not help the Heat close the gap.
Big Van Gundy saw that Wade had nothing to do with Doon, so he had to send Eddie Jones in advance to help Wade limit Doon and increase more offensive firepower.
However, Doon still has Peyton by his side! Not counting the preseason, Doon and Payton also played 10 games, and the tacit understanding between teammates has long been formed.
Doon relied on Payton to share the pressure of holding the ball, and he still played with ease on the court.
And Eddie Jones was guarded by Kobe Bryant in the first quarter, and his hands seemed to be covered with rust, and after he was replaced in the second quarter, two consecutive shots ended in iron.
If it weren't for the big difference between the Heat jersey and the Lakers' jersey, the fans on the hilltop seats might have mistaken Eddie Jones for Kobe.
Of course, the Lakers fans at the scene did not wait any longer, and within a few minutes, the Zen master sent Kobe Bryant and Malone to the court again.
Affected by a shoulder injury, Kobe Bryant will inevitably hit iron a few times, but the Heat can't shoot, so it won't affect the overall situation of the game.
Relying on Malone's height advantage against Haslem, the Lakers extended some advantages in the second half of the second quarter.
"Doon, I don't seem to be your match anymore."
In the third quarter, during a matchup, Wade was a little lonely and took the initiative to give in to Duane.
"Hey, rookie, don't underestimate Dwyane Wade, he's my brother!
The Dwyane Wade I know is amazing, he has a talent that I envy, he can hit everything with the ball.
No one can beat him, not even Michael Jordan!
Cheer up, the game is not over yet, why throw in the towel? ”
Doon continues to trash-talk Wade, hoping to stir up Wade's fighting spirit.
Wade's personality seems to be born with a bit of inferiority, perhaps after Riley's training, he has developed the iron-blooded, tough, and unyielding character in the future.
Doon believes Wade will become the all-time third scoring guard in memory, and that is the Dwyane Wade who Doon wants to play brother basketball!
81-104, the Lakers' main team punched in the third quarter and beat the Heat by 23 points.
It was also because the game was one-sided early in the game, and Doon didn't have a chance to play in garbage time in the fourth quarter to brush up on the data.
In the end, Doon shot 7-of-12, 1-of-3 from three-point range, and 4-of-5 from the free-throw line to finish with 19 points, 4 rebounds and 11 assists. Although he hit a double-double again, he failed to score 20 points as he hoped.
Wade, on the other hand, got a lot of opportunities to perform because of the garbage time in the fourth quarter.
Obviously, in the first three quarters, he only made 4 of 10 shots and 2 of 3 free throws. After the fourth quarter, the full-court statistics became 9 of 17 shots, 6 of 7 free throws, and 24 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.
Don't watch the game, just look at the data, it seems that Doon was still pressed by Wade.
But the real situation is that Wade simply conceded defeat, and then regained his confidence under Doon's tireless persuasion, saying that he would fight Doon again in Miami.
After winning Wade in bro basketball, Doon happily gave a post-game interview to the media.
The Lakers have won three consecutive home games this week, sweeping away the shadow of last week's two-game losing streak on the road.
No one could have imagined that the Los Angeles Lakers would be able to play an excellent record of 8-2 in the West in the absence of big man O'Neal.
is also because the opening record is too perfect, when Doon was interviewed, some reporters began to hint at him, hoping that he shouted the slogan of the Lakers championship.
was originally a scene play, and Doon also went along with their wishes and behaved in a high-profile manner.
"My grandma played with the OK group plus Carl and Gary, and she was able to win the championship!"
"Michael Jordan is the undisputed GOAT, but he can't win the championship without leaving the Zen master!"
"Shaq is the best player in the league, and passing the ball to Shaq is the best tactic!"
"Even against Michael Jordan, we don't have to worry, don't forget we have Kobe!"
"I don't disrespect Tim Duncan, but I still have to say that in my eyes Carl is the best power forward!"
"Gary is great, he can sacrifice everything for the championship.
He's my mentor at the Lakers, and he's taught me a lot.
If I'm talking about historical status, I'll put him alongside magicians, and Gary is important to me. ”
In the post-game interview, Doon undoubtedly gained a bigger say in the Lakers' locker room......
