1443. Lectra Crisis! (Part 87)

7 points difference!

In the last 30 seconds, not only did the score not narrow, but it was even pulled away!

Until now, James still hasn't rested for a second in the game. If Wade hadn't helped him hold on for one offense, James felt like he was about to collapse.

They have been preparing for this game since the third game, whether it is offensive or defensive, the focus is on the defense against Sun Ce.

Obviously, they did a very good job in defending Sun Ce tonight, but they couldn't hold it back and Sun Ce suddenly broke out!

Under this kind of defense, Sun Ce still made 9 of 19 free throws and 4 of 5 free throws to score 22 points!

Moreover, because they had to guard against the outburst Sun Ce, they gave Sun Ce better opportunities to organize attacks. Sun Ce has already provided 10 assists!

Returning to the bench, James sat down on the chair and covered his head with a towel. Now he wanted to take a good rest.

He hasn't given up yet.

If you give up now, it’s all over!

At this time, Pat Riley made a decision and instructed Spoelstra to make adjustments!

The Grizzlies players thought about the O'Brien Trophy in the locker room and tried hard to suppress their overly excited emotions.

Coach Hollins still plays it safe, with a lineup of Sun Ce, Jimmy Butler, Paul George, Battier, and Gasol on the field.

I will replace Randolph in the second half of the quarter. I don't want a big win, I just want to maintain the lead until the end of the game. Winning by 1 point is also a win, as long as I can win!

Sun Ce used a physical potion in the last attack of the third quarter. He is very excited now because what he recovered was the S-level physical strength of the 05-06 version of Wade!

Just go on! Keep going!

However, he was surprised when he saw the Heat players playing.

Wade didn't play, but McGrady, Ray Allen, Mike Miller, James, and Bosh did.

This lineup can be said to be a purely offensive lineup!

Sun Ce had a vague feeling that the other party was going to cause trouble!



At the beginning of the fourth quarter, James advanced to the frontcourt, used Bosh's pick-and-roll, and attracted Sun Ce to pass to McGrady. With Paul George's defense in place, McGrady took a three-pointer and shot...hit!

Just throw it! The Heat began to play regardless.

During the transition between offense and defense, Sun Ce advanced to the frontcourt. The Heat's attack just now made him feel a bit incredible. It was so unstable at this time. If there was a slight mistake, it would directly collapse.

But the Heat did just that, and McGrady made the shot! Just now, the Grizzlies did a very good job in switching defense. Jimmy Butler followed Bosh, and Paul George was also in place when Sun Ce was covering the defense.

.

But McGrady just got in.

The point difference suddenly narrowed to 4 points, 82 to 78. Sun Ce still felt a lot of pressure!

In the frontcourt, Sun Ce directly attacked James. The Heat were prepared. On the last attack of the third quarter, James could hardly keep up with Sun Ce. Bosh came up from a flank and Sun Ce split the corner with Battier.

Battier received the ball. He didn't shoot much in this game and didn't score a single point. But at this moment, Battier didn't hesitate. Not shooting is the biggest harm to the team. He caught the ball and shot a three-pointer...

The Heat are betting that their lineup has no center and they dare not let Jimmy Butler cut in. They dare not let Paul George, who has already scored 19 points tonight, have Gasol and McGrady to defend him in front.

Only Battier averaged 2.5 points per game in the first four games of the Finals.

However, in the crucial fourth quarter, Battier made a shot right away!

85 to 78, the Grizzlies once again opened the point difference to 7 points!

The Heat quickly counterattacked. Since they were short, they were mentally prepared. Now only by focusing on offense can they eliminate the emotional impact of the huge disadvantage.

During the counterattack, Bosh scored two points with a dunk. Bosh's score surpassed Paul George and increased to 20 points!

The lead was reduced to 5 points. Sun Ce was not in a hurry, playing slowly and consuming time. They were still leading. It was already the fourth quarter. The less time, the greater their advantage.

With 10 seconds left in the attack time, Sun Ce continued to break through. The opponent's defensive strategy did not change and gave Battier a chance. Defense is like this. It focuses on defense. Extreme defense has taken this to the extreme.

But... Battier, who received a pass from Sun Ce, hit two consecutive three-pointers from the same position!

Immediately afterwards, Ray Allen found an opportunity when McGrady received the ball and attracted Paul George to cover up. He received a second pass from McGrady and hit a three-pointer.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, all three attacks were scored, including two three-pointers. The point difference was once again narrowed to 5 points. Trailing 83 to 88, the Heat felt that they still had a chance.

However, Battier then scored another three-pointer! This time when he received the ball, Tracy McGrady, who was guarding Paul George, rushed towards Battier. Battier did not pass the ball, but feinted a shot across the field.

Taking a step to avoid the deceived Tracy McGrady, the three-point shot from the left sideline went in again!

In less than two minutes, Battier scored 9 points! He scored three three-pointers in a row!

The Heat's change of formation caught the Grizzlies off guard on the offensive end, and their defense was okay. It's always easier to defend against 5 against 4.

However, he only scored 10 points in the first four finals games. Battier, who played eight minutes without scoring a single point in the first three quarters tonight, also gave the Heat a cold start!

The Heat scored 8 points on 3-of-3 shooting, but not only did the point difference not narrow, it was further expanded by 1 point!

This made the Heat feel very frustrated. The most obvious frustration was James, who turned around and threw iron when he suddenly reached the basket!

Just when James was about to shoot and steal, Gasol picked off the defensive rebound over James' head!

At the critical moment, Gasol also did what he should do.

Sun Ce received the ball and continued to press the pace without counterattack. After advancing to the frontcourt, he encountered a fierce defense from James. At this time, James had lost his calm and wanted to press and steal.

Sun Ce passed the ball to Paul George who pulled out to receive the ball, turned around and cut in!

Seeing that James didn't catch up with Sun Ce, he turned around and cut in. Paul George immediately lobbed to the right side of the three-second zone. When Sun Ce received the ball, Ray Allen could only cover it. Sun Ce kept holding the ball and lobbed the basket. At this moment, he seemed to be entering.

Get the best feeling, know where your teammates are, and know what you should do.

Jimmy Butler took off from the left side of the three-second zone and scored two points with an alley-oop dunk!

93 to 83, the Grizzlies' lead expanded to 10 points!

In less than three minutes, Sun Ce got 4 assists!

It wasn't over yet. The Heat didn't call a timeout. This time, Ray Allen took a fast break three-pointer to catch and shoot, but Paul George followed him hard and missed the three-pointer.

And looking back, it's Shane again!

The Heat really couldn't believe that Battier would play such a key role in the fourth quarter, but Battier just made consecutive three-pointers, 4 consecutive three-pointers!

96 to 83, and after a crazy 14 to 8 run, the Grizzlies extended their lead to 13 points!
Chapter completed!
