The Way of the Center

Spoelstra did not expect that the Blazers, who had been defeated, could even level the score in just a few rounds. Moreover, this was done when Wade was in hot form.

The Filipinos have prepared James to play, but before the ball is dead, the Heat were stopped by the Blazers.

"We must be more cautious. We must not make mistakes, and we must not make mistakes. Perhaps last season, the Blazers were one of the worst fast-break teams in the league. But now, this year, they are definitely the best fast-breakers in the entire league. The team! You must not make a mistake. If you make a mistake, it will almost give the Trail Blazers two points. It makes no difference! LeBron, you will go on the field later, Norris Cole, replace Chalmers and organize the ball. Team attack!" A few minutes ago, Spoelstra and his Big Three made Ricard shout anxiously.

Unexpectedly, now, the yelling person turned into Spoelstra himself.

"You did a good job, but keep working hard! The Heat have once again been suppressed by you, which is great. If you don't want to repeat the tragedy of the second quarter, it is best to keep my nerves tight!" Of course Ricard will not be satisfied with equalizing the score. He is here to win the game, not to help the Heat perform the "Jedi Live"!

Finally, after a short pause, the battle resumed. But this time, James and Anjie were both present. Needless to think about it, the confrontation will definitely be fierce!

Fans of the Rose Garden waved the red snood officially issued by the Trail Blazers, and the entire stadium turned into a dark red ocean.

In the center of this ocean, An Jie was shouting. At this time, the Heat had sent the baseline ball, and An Jie also mobilized the morale of his teammates. The highest level of collision, staggered again!

Norris Cole thought he could play the role of a surprise soldier as before, but Lillard explained everything to Cole with his tough attitude-your performance is over!

Yes, Lillard's body may be thinner, and the Rookie of the Year seems to be better offensively than defensively. But when a player's defensive attitude is correct, he can make up for many of his shortcomings.

Originally, Cole was not a top offensive player. Being so entangled by Lillard, the Heat's backup point guard was also a little at a loss.

He hurried the ball, let James once again become the offensive starting point. Sure enough, in difficult times, James still has to play with the ball!

When James is present, Anjie can no longer play cat and mouse with Bosh.

Give Chris Bosh full power to Aldridge, and Anjie defends the basket. Even if Bosh is allowed to open, James is not allowed to kill.

But James was not afraid. He used Haslem's pick-and-roll to force his way into the penalty area.

Seeing this situation, Matthews hurried over to make up the defense, but the strong James still forcibly broke through the gap between Iguodala and Matthews.

When James wants to score, there is nothing to stop him. This guy rushed into the three-second zone and suddenly stopped his jumper. Anjie didn't react slowly, but he was still a few seconds late.

The basketball was hollow into the net, and James broke the Heat's scoring drought as soon as he came on the court.

But before Spoelstra and the Heat fans in front of the TV had time to be happy, An Jie used his own way to set the Heat again!

This is An Jie's three threats with the ball in the high post. Bosh is in a dilemma because he neither dares to put An Jie too far nor too close to An Jie.

This is the deterrent effect of An Jie with full firepower on the offensive end. As a center forward, An Jie not only can threaten the opponent's inside line, but also make the entire area within the three-point line a dangerous area.

Bosh was sweating profusely, and everyone else was more or less distracted to Anjie.

Just when everyone was wondering what method An Jie would use to attack, Lillard suddenly shot out from behind An Jie!

An Jie stretched out his ball-handler to let Lillard take the basketball steadily. This hand-to-hand cooperation made everyone on the Heat team never expect that they had originally agreed that An Jie was going to play singles!

Lillard took the opportunity to break through, and Haslem gave up his defense. Of course, in this way, Lillard just scored slightly, which allowed Aldridge to get a shot.

An easy two-pointer from close range, even with the threat of James, Anjie did not fall into the singles circle again.

He and the Blazers are still playing at their own pace. As a core, they can threaten the basket and pass the ball. This is undoubtedly the best offensive option for the Blazers.

Where's the Heat? When Bosh and Wade were frozen successively, James once again carried the offensive banner.

But when Anjie stuck to the basket, James couldn't hit every ball to the basket. Originally, his significantly improved low-post offense could not be used because of An Jie's reasons.

In the beginning, James could still rely on this way to make the score. But gradually, as Iguodala became familiar with James' offensive rhythm, his chances of shooting were getting lower and lower.

Bosh and Wade wanted to come forward at this time, but under the desperate defense of Matthews and Aldridge, the only thing these two guys did was wasted a lot of shots.

There is no way, James had to attack inside.

For the first time, James intends to throw after the breakthrough. But Anjie's huge defensive range caused James to throw the basketball onto the basket's neck.

For the second time, James slipped the bottom line to prepare for a draw-up. But it was also because of Anjie's deterrence at the basket that James's handsome layup was turned into a breeze.

For the third time, the two sides fought in chaos. First, James’ shot was suddenly cut off by Iguodala, and then Bosh made a desperate save, but at the same time dragged Aldridge beside him.

Seeing this situation, Wade and Matthews were unwilling to join the battle. In the end, under the chaos, James still received a basketball from the crowd.

James hit the ball with both hands and planned to jump and dunk directly, but An Jie, who arrived in time, slammed the ball cleanly between James's hands!

"Once again! God, this is another time Ann blocked James' dunk! In this league, perhaps only An Jie can do that on the "little emperor"! He is simply a killer of kings!"

Blocking means another offense conversion for the Trail Blazers. As Spoelstra said, switching offense directly means scoring for the Trail Blazers!

James has failed to hit the basket three times in a row, and the Blazers' desperate defense made it difficult for the "little emperor" to break through.

The game lasted for a while, and Ricard finally decided to change Anjie and others to rest.

It was also during the time when An Jie waited for the main players to come off the court and rest that the Heat came close to the score with difficulty.

Ray Allen's cold arrow put the curtain on the third quarter of the match between the two sides. Although this three-point buzzer entered the net, it only narrowed the Heat's lag to four points.

Soon after, Lillard's wing jumper kicked off the fourth quarter decisive battle between the two sides. Although the Heat's Big Three have all received a short break, from the perspective of stadium performance, their performance is still limited miserably.

Especially Chris Bosh, the power forward who is in poor physical condition, faces Aldridge today and frequently strikes the iron. So far, he has shot 14 times, but only hit 5 goals. And most of these 5 goals came from the second quarter.

Wade's condition is not much better. After scoring 10 points in the second quarter, the defense against Wade has become more.

Wade is such a player. When he scores consecutive goals, he can play more and more smoothly. But once he starts to miss consecutively, Wade will get worse and worse.

After hitting the back, Wade directly gave up the shot. The most common picture is that Wade was forced to stop shortly after the dribble. He now has no room to shoot, and naturally he cannot share the pressure for James.

Unfortunately, James is one of the strongest players in the league anyway. His strength is no worse than that of An Jie who won the MVP.

With his hard work, even though the Heat played ugly on the scene, they were never left behind by the Blazers.

As Bosh shot another shot from beyond the three-point line and Anjie confiscated his rebounds, Ricard immediately called a timeout.

At this time, the first matchup of the finals will end with only 58.7 seconds left, and the Trail Blazers temporarily lead by two points. Ricard must pass a timeout to calm down these crazy boys.

"The close match is always like this. The last few rounds are the key to the real victory!"

"Both parties have given us wonderful performances before. Now, it's time to end it all!"

"Angel and the Trail Blazers are in a very good state today. As long as they keep up in the last minute, they will definitely be able to win the game!"

The narrators began to build momentum for the final matchup, and the reporters frantically filmed the scenes of the two teams on the bench.

Now, whether it is behind Spoelstra or leading Ricard, there will certainly not be any relaxation.

The war was rekindled, and even at a critical moment, Anjie still had no intention of scoring. This time, he still chose to pass the ball. But the Heat have begun to figure out Anjie's passing options, and Wade's timely supplementary defense disturbed Lillard's shot and the basketball knocked out of the box.

Bosh withstood Anjie, James leaped high, and the two giants cooperated to protect Anjie's offensive rebound.

After winning the rebound, James didn't do more to stop, but directly controlled the ball and advanced quickly!

"Terrorist physical ability, this guy can actually sprint quickly!" The commentary area was amazed, and saw a heavily armed armored vehicle on the field surpassed each opponent and smashed to the basket.

Lillard is the only one who can keep up with James, but Lillard can do nothing but fouls.

"Be proactive, be proactive! Now the game is in your hands, you have to try to control the situation!" Taking advantage of the gap between James' free throws, Ricard shouted Anjie in the field.

Now is not the time to be humble. In a critical period, the leading stars have to come forward like James!

Two free throws were made, James once again let the two sides equal.

In 29.3 seconds, Aldridge took the baseline ball, Lillard gesticulated and advanced slowly.

Wade used a gambling sprint approach to steal near the middle circle, but the concentrated Lillard did not let the "Flash" succeed. But in a hurry, Lillard's ball-handling rhythm was also disrupted.

He squeezed a glance and realized that he could only see An Jie, the highest point. So the rookie guard was in a panic and threw the ball directly inside.

The ball didn't pass well, and Anjie had to stretch his long arms and take a big step to get to the basketball. As Anjie moved, Bosh pushed the No. 00 center forward severely.

After landing, Anjie, who was strongly suppressed by Bosh, slipped and fell to the ground holding a basketball!

"Ann fell! What will happen to the Heat's defense!?" Bill Walton suddenly stood up, and when he realized that he was blocking the commentator behind him, he sat down again.

Seeing An Jie fall, Bosh, James and Chalmers immediately rushed towards him. An Jie supported the ground with one hand and held the basketball in the other. In the tense situation, An Jie who fell on the ground could not go carefully. Look for the pass target.

The big man fell to the ground, which is the most taboo thing on the basketball court. Because inside players are not as flexible as outside players, if they fall with the ball, it will be difficult for basketball to be dealt with in time!

Bosh immediately fell on Anjie's back, and James stretched out his hands on the side. As for Chalmers, this guy obscured Anjie's vision.

The real hand-to-hand combat began again on the floor. An Jie didn't panic, he first hugged the basketball firmly in this muscular jungle. No matter how James and Bosh pulled or attacked in secret, Anjie never let go!

Among the crowd, An Jie had no vision at all. But in the gap, An Jie saw a pair of silver and white Nike, Max, and Hyperposite basketball shoes.

"This is a relatively pure pair of inside shoes, I think, use this to declare that I have become a tough style of playing. Maybe next time, I will try your center forward? Forget it, or wait for the second generation to come out. Try it." Before the start of the playoffs, Aldridge smiled and answered An Jie's question about changing his shoes.

"LaMarcus, it's up to you!" An Jie was so impressed with these silver-white sneakers that he passed the basketball over only with this pair of sneakers.

"What's the result? The referee hasn't called the scrimmage yet, and Anjie is still desperately resisting! Basketball! The basketball has leaked from the crowd! Aldridge, the ball was passed to Aldridge! God, Ann How did it happen!?” Just when everyone thought that the end of the ball would be a face-off, the basketball rolled towards Aldridge without error!

Aldridge reacted immediately, he immediately bent down and picked up the basketball. In an instant, this big guy became the target of the Heat's siege.

At the same time, An Jie, who had been fighting on the floor for a long time, did not waste time. He immediately turned over and stood up, which is not easy for a big man with a height of 2.19 meters!

But the desire for victory made An Jie break all boundaries. Aldridge threw the basketball into the air, and everyone on the Heat turned their heads to look, only to find that Anjie, who was lying on the ground just now, was already flying towards the basketball!

The fight on the floor just now consumes too much energy for An Jie, and now it is difficult for him to make such exaggerated empty dunks.

After Anjie caught the basketball in the air, he just gave it a light push. The basketball changed its trajectory and fell into the net. At the same time, the red light on the backboard lit up, and the Blazers' 24-second offense for this round just ended!

"Buzzer shot, beautiful. Anjie, this guy saved the Blazers again!"

"All come to stop me!" After the goal, An Jie waved his fist vigorously, from being besieged on the floor to finally shooting. An Jie's emotions exploded in an instant!

With 5.2 seconds left in the game, the Heat are two points behind. Spoelstra called the last timeout, and An Jie's key air-received shot put the Heat into desperation!

After the timeout, James found that there were two people defending by his side! Iguodala and Matthews followed the Heat with No. 6, and there was no chance for him to connect to the sideline.

Bosh hesitated for a long time and gave the ball to Chalmers at the very moment.

Chalmers was unable to dribble the ball in one step due to Lillard's fierce defense. Wade anxiously raised his hand for the ball. Because of double-teaming James, he was unmarked at the moment!

Chalmers is also the same MOP with Anjie anyway, no matter how bad, he can still do things like passing the ball to the head of the star.

Wade catches the ball and there is not much time left. This guy took a step back. Instead of asking for a two-pointer from a long distance, he could just kill the game with a three-pointer!

"Wade, take a three-pointer for the open position! The entire rose garden has quieted down, what is the result?"

Anjie looked at the basketball, but Bosh was the first to get stuck.

The basketball hit the left side of the basket first, and then bounced out! But the game is not over yet, because Bosh has an unprecedented offensive rebound!

"Damn..." An Jie, who was physically exhausted, tried to stop Bosh, but found that his footsteps were not as fast as before.

Bosh shot the ball before Anjie pounced, and at the same time, the red light on the backboard lit up.

"brush!"

An Jie turned around to see ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Basketball Hollow into the net!

"It's a tie?" An Jie put his head in his hands, he looked up at the big screen. The players of the Heat team raised their arms and cheered, they were not killed this time!

92 to 94, no, no tie! Is it because there is no tie, or is there no time to add the score?

Looking at the referee again, several referees on duty were watching the replay several times in front of the technical stage. They watched Bosh's last shot over and over again. After all, this was a penalty that could change the outcome of the game.

After discussion, the referee made a gesture to the players in the field. However, his actions seem to be saying...the goal is invalid! ?
