1413. Beyond! (Part 1)
During the advancement, James looked at Sun Ce, who continued to tangle with Bosh after retreating from defense, and thought that their strongest helpers were also the nominal bosses of the two teams, Randolph and Wade. The two were similar in age.
The gap in post-match status is so big...
When Wade was in good form in the past two years, the team failed to bring back a center like Nene. After bringing back Nene, Wade declined. Fortunately, Bosh was in excellent form.
Some people on Sun Ce's side are declining and some are getting old, but Nash and Randolph can be supported in the regular season because Klay Thompson and Paul George have improved significantly, and Larry Sanders has been introduced.
Lopez Jr. and others, Jimmy Butler also have the strength of the third shooting guard and the third small forward.
On their side, Wade has to fight hard in the regular season. The management, mainly the general manager, seems to be trying to drain everyone of their Big Three!
After advancing past halftime, putting aside the sudden melancholy, and under heavy pressure, James shouldered the heavy responsibility without hesitation.
Entering the state, James accelerated to the outside of the three-point line and paid attention to the movement of his teammates. Ray Allen was followed closely by Klay Thompson. It felt like he was fighting against an enhanced version of the young Ray Allen.
For defense, this can only be used as a containment point.
Mike Miller will circle the top arc from the sideline when he breaks through. If Nash can follow him, Mike Miller will be the containment point. If Nash cannot follow, Mike Miller will be the scoring point.
The focus is still on Bosh and Chris Anderson... In just one second from the center circle to the top arc, James, who has entered a state of concentration, has already imagined the possible running situation in his mind.
Without stopping, beyond the three-point line, James continued to break through Paul George's defense!
Sun Ce and Yi Jianlian came in. Sun Ce did not judge who James might pass to, and the "siege" was not triggered. Sun Ce helped Paul George block James, causing James to take a step to the left and enter the circle of Yi Jianlian and Paul George.
Chris Anderson was cutting towards the left baseline to block Chris Anderson. At this time, James did not force a one-on-two and had no space to get into the basket. He jumped up and passed the ball to Bosh.
Bosh pulled to the right side of the three-second zone, caught the ball and made a mid-range shot... He has a strong sense of position and an A+ level mid-range shot. Bosh connected with James and hit the mid-range shot!
The defensive end was endlessly ravaged, but on the offensive end, after Bosh only played power forward, he got whatever he wanted!
Last season, Bosh played best when he was paired with Chris Anderson, but Chris Anderson only had more than ten minutes of good performance time in a game, so Bosh still had to play center.
But now with Nene who can play more than 30 minutes, the Heat's head coach is not stupid. This season, he only lets Bosh play power forward.
Compared with the past two years, he is completely a top power forward.
Block the birdman to eat cake, or block the long-necked dragon to make a shot?
This is a problem Sun Ce has to face. Bosh is getting better and better in this quasi-small ball era. At this time, Yi Jianlian picked up the ball and sent it to Nash. Sun Ce stopped making a choice. If he couldn't choose, then he didn't choose and started attacking.
!
Sun Ce followed up the fast break with a slow beat, and it still had an effect. The Heat didn't dare to leave him open at all. Just now, they shot directly against Bosh's defense and scored. Sun Ce came from the back of Nash's right side to the right side at a 45-degree angle.
The corner position attracted the opponent's defensive attention to the right side of the three-second zone. Paul George got the opportunity to cut in and connected with Nash to score two points.
James has Bosh, and his grandson also has Nash and Paul George!
Sun Ce and James both have their own characteristics that attract defenses. James has his own system, Sun Ce has his own system promotion effect, and Nash has good teammates and can barely build a run-and-gun system.
The two teams are fighting!
On the Heat's side, James does everything he needs to: score points when he should, grab rebounds when he should, defend and counterattack when he should, and make sudden points when he should...
For the Grizzlies, Sun Ce is simple. He defends, grabs rebounds, and looks for scoring opportunities for himself. As for passing... he feels so hot, what ball should he pass? If Nash gives it, he will throw it!
On the defensive end, Sun Ce still chose to block Chris Wallace. First of all, because Chris Wallace dunked directly, and receiving the ball equaled scoring. This guy once made 25 consecutive shots in 7 games in the Eastern Conference Finals.
made 28 of 32 shots in the entire series! Birdman cannot ignore this, he is a member of the Heat
Also, Sun Ce shrinks from Bosh to block James in the mid-range, and it is too difficult to expand back.
Therefore, with James in full control and Bosh assisting, the Heat's offense has been very strong.
However, the Heat's strong offense did not help the Heat establish their lead!
At 9 minutes and 18 seconds, when the Heat tied the score, Sun Ce caught the ball and accelerated the change of direction and made a second-stage throw to score two points; at 11 minutes and 33 seconds, the Heat went ahead by 1 point, and at the same time, the Grizzlies were defeated by the Heat.
The team pressed into position. If the ball didn't go in, the Heat had the possibility of a defensive counterattack. Sun Ce took the initiative to help Nash in the pick-and-roll. After receiving the ball, he faked a shot and hit the left baseline with his left hand, which caused a gap in the defense.
Reese Anderson fouled and scored 2+1.
82 to 80, the two teams theoretically had one final attack in the third quarter. The Heat consumed the remaining 27 minutes of the third quarter with only 7 seconds left, and Mike Miller seized the opportunity and made the key three
The point shot was made, and the Heat led the Heat by 1 point 83-82.
However, after Mike Miller made a three-pointer, Paul George, who had shrunk in, immediately picked up the ball and served, and Nash launched a counterattack!
7 seconds was enough for Nash to launch an attack. Nash chose to do it himself this time. With 2 seconds left, he shot a three-pointer...but missed!
But just as the ball bounced out of the cylinder of the basket, a hand stretched out from the right side of the basket and tapped the ball lightly. The ball followed the force of the move and fell into the frame!
Sun Ce!
It’s Sun Ce again!
Whenever the Heat try their best to overtake the score, Sun Ce will stand up!
The ball was controversial. The fat man behind the bench on the Heat team jumped up and yelled "timeout". However, after watching the replay, the referee determined that when the ball left the fingertips of Sun Ce's tip-in hand, the ball was in contact with Sun Ce.
When the fingertips are about one to two centimeters away, there is 0.2 seconds left in the countdown!
Sun Ce's tip-in was effective, and the Grizzlies tied the Heat 82-82 and entered the intersection!
In the third quarter, with Sun Ce scoring 20+ points in a single quarter for the fourth time in his career in the playoffs, the Grizzlies scored 32 to 29 in a single quarter!
