At the beginning of the second quarter, the Tigers led the Heat by 4 points at 28:24. Especially towards the end of the game, Yang Zhenxing's super buzzer-beating three-pointer was replayed on the big screen during the break. The atmosphere at the scene reached a climax.
"Very good, Yang," Wade walked up to Yang Zhenxing, "but we won't let you perform like that again."
Yang Zhenxing and Wade briefly hugged each other and said in a low voice: "Actually, I just wanted to make a foul, but I didn't expect Meng Jin."
"The second quarter, the game has begun." The referee blew the whistle and announced that the game will continue.
In the second quarter, Iverson took possession of the ball first. The Heat did not expect McGrady to sit on the bench, while Yang Zhenxing returned to shooting guard.
Since Chalmers and Yang Zhenxing did not have an advantage in the matchup, Wade came on the field again. Looking at the cold light in his eyes, I knew that he must have rekindled his fighting spirit during the break and had quite the intention of killing Yang Zhenxing.
After Arenas dribbled the ball past half court, he passed the ball to Yang Zhenxing on the left side outside the three-point line. Of course, O'Neal immediately came up to set a pick-and-roll for Yang Zhenxing, and Harrelson behind him also came up.
Seeing this situation, Yang Zhenxing chose to slip through the baseline from the left to break through.
Bosh, who was guarding Yao Ming on one side, immediately came over to defend, "Okay, this is the effect we want." Yang Zhenxing sneered and passed the ball behind the back with his left hand. Yao Ming, who was under the basket, received the ball and prepared for a dunk.
"What?!" The scene on the court stunned everyone. Yao Ming was blocked, and the person who blocked the shot turned out to be Wade, a veteran in his 30s. Yang Zhenxing was also surprised.
Everything is possible. Even though Wade is old, he still has bounce, not to mention bounce speed. Of course, this time it was Yao Ming who was careless. No matter how tall and skilled he is at 2.26, he is not a fool.
A group of people were fighting for the ball. The ball flew very high. Yang Zhenxing jumped up high. After catching the basketball in the air, Bosh, who was following Yang Zhenxing, jumped up immediately. But where was Yang Zhenxing?
In the air, Yang Zhenxing's body retreated half a meter in the air and made a fadeaway jumper!
"Whoa!" The ball hit the target steadily. Just now, the Heat's morale was greatly boosted because of Wade's super block, but now their morale was suppressed by Yang Zhenxing.
"Oh, it's Young again!!" the encouraging voice of on-site commentator Reggie Miller immediately echoed in the arena.
Yao Ming looked a little annoyed. After all, he was very unhappy after being hit by Wade just now. "Yao, it's okay. Yang Zhenxing will give you some nice assists later and let you score more goals." Yang Zhenxing walked back.
While running, Yao Ming comforted Yao Ming who had just been blocked and played for a few more minutes. Both sides scored.
Next, James made a pull-up jumper in front of O'Neal Jr., and the Heat also added two points to change the score to 37:32. The Heat were still 5 points behind, and the score was still difficult to open, but the Tigers were firmly in the lead.
Seizing the score, the Heat were unable to catch up, and the situation was still in the hands of the Tigers.
In the next three points, the two sides went back and forth. The Tigers relied on their inside strength to surpass the Heat and kept holding on to the score.
McGrady is on the court!
Arenas went off, Yang Zhenxing switched to point guard; Yi Jianlian and Carter also played again, O'Neal Jr. and Yao Ming took a break. The score at this time was that the Tigers still led the Heat by 4 points, 45:41.
McGrady's reappearance aroused rounds of applause from the fans. It seems that no one can match McGrady's popularity among San Francisco fans. In addition, there are many Chinese fans in San Francisco, and McGrady's popularity among Chinese fans in Qingdao last season
Low is quite high
After McGrady came on the court, the focus of the offense naturally shifted to him; while the Heat still attacked inside.
The combination of Harrelson and Bosh caused Yi Jianlian two more fouls in the remaining time of the second quarter. He had already committed four fouls, and Yao Ming also applied for three fouls. Harrelson improved rapidly, was full of power, and was very motivated.
As a last resort, O'Neal was replaced again, and Yi Jianlian was replaced to prepare for the next game.
Maybe it was because he took a three-minute rest off the court, but McGrady’s shooting percentage in the second quarter was really low.
And he is so confident that even though he missed the shot many times, he still shot it himself when the ball came into his hands! As for Yang Zhenxing, he only scored four points with free throws.
At the end of the second quarter, during the halftime break, the situation on the court was already a bit closer to the Heat. Although the Tigers were still leading by one point, McGrady, who had just performed relatively averagely, needed to reflect on it. Just too much.
Too excited, strong desire to attack, but feeling cold, a bit irrational 56:55, 56 points at halftime is logically high, but somehow the Tigers still make people feel a little strange
McGrady still relied on 15 points in the first quarter. Although he only scored 5 points in the second quarter, his high score of 20 points in the half was still the highest in the half. However, the shooting percentage in the second quarter was really not high, and there were 3 more points.
mistakes
As for Yang Zhenxing, he scored 6 points in the second quarter and 9 points in the first quarter. He scored 15 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. Midfielder Yang Zhenxing had to be interviewed by the cspn TV station.
The person who interviewed Yang Zhenxing shocked Yang Zhenxing!!!
Who was the person who interviewed Yang Zhenxing?
Why does she look familiar? Yes, she is the beautiful Indian journalist Priya whom I met before
"Hello, Yang, long time no see. I've been too busy with competitions recently."
"It's okay." Yang Zhenxing chatted with Priya for a while, and Yang Zhenxing answered some of his questions about the game.
"Priya, I have to go to the lounge to take a rest. I hope we can chat when we are free. Goodbye."
Yang Zhenxing never thought that Priya would come. Recently, their games have become more and more tense. Yang Zhenxing didn't have the time to think about it. He just wanted to devote himself to the game. But of course he was very happy when the beauty Priya came.
The intermission passed quickly and the third quarter was about to begin.
The Tigers led the Heat by 1 point 56:55. Both sides sent out all the main players who started in the first quarter.
The Heat's ball, Wade controls the ball. After the confrontation with him in the first half, Yang Zhenxing now has a certain understanding of him.
After Wade dribbled the ball past half-court, Yang Zhenxing began to press forward step by step. He pressed against Yang Zhenxing with his body, dribbled with his right hand, and kept trying to change lines. At this time, James in front of him had already detoured to the middle to prepare.
Want the ball
Wade hesitated and passed the ball to James.
Hesitation is still a bad thing, and Yang Zhenxing's cunning is also reflected in his ability to make good use of his teammates to create opportunities for himself, and Yang Zhenxing will create opportunities for himself, that is, Yang Zhenxing's ball-stealing fast break. To say that Yang Zhenxing's breakthrough ability is not too strong,
But fast break is his special skill
"Wow, it's so fast!" Yang Zhenxing looked at the situation on the court and rushed towards the opponent's half without stopping on his feet. James was indeed a superstar and he had already quickly returned to defense.
Seeing Yang Zhenxing rushing towards the basket with unabated momentum, James changed the pace of his steps and stared at Yang Zhenxing's hands and feet: Do you want a layup? Humph, James sneered and chased and blocked shots. James's specialty is that, I
I don't believe you can break through my defense
As he thought about it, he suddenly felt a little uneasy. What was wrong?
James looked at the faint smile on the corner of Yang Zhenxing's mouth. He always felt as if he had fallen into a trap. When he saw Yang Zhenxing's right hand turning behind him when taking the ball, he realized that Yang Zhenxing was going to pass the ball.
At this time, the Arab League has also started a fast break and is almost to the basket.
James immediately stabilized his body and stopped between Yang Zhenxing and Ah Lian. His physical fitness is really good. Others would definitely not be able to do this.
Before James could be happy, his face changed again. He discovered that Yang Zhenxing's hand behind his back was just a fake move. He just waved it behind him, deceived him and then took it back.
James hurriedly stabilized his center of gravity and rushed forward. He was a little embarrassed and staggered, but he quickly stabilized and shouted towards the basket: "Harrelson, he is yours, give it to me."
Take it down"
The Heat's defense is now quite strong. Their fast break defense is really fast. Harrelson has already established his position under the basket. He is standing on the route of Yang Zhenxing's layup, covering his hands with his hands.
In the key part, he is trying to cause a foul when dribbling the ball into someone.
Yang Zhenxing saw through his trick. Yang Zhenxing made an emergency stop and jumped up high.
Harrelson could only follow Yang Zhenxing in taking off. He jumped almost at the same time as Yang Zhenxing, and his big hand fiercely blocked the ball in Yang Zhenxing's hand.
Harrelson suddenly felt that the target he was locking in front of him suddenly disappeared. He felt that he was not touching anything in the air. His body was already falling, but his opponent seemed to still be staying in mid-air.
But in the air, Yang Zhenxing shook his wrist, and the ball flew towards Yi Jianlian, who had been waiting for a long time under the basket.
When Yang Zhenxing landed, he saw James rushing towards the ball quickly, and his heart felt like it was for a while, but fortunately he had already passed the ball, and James couldn't come back no matter how capable he was.
James rushed over with a lunge, stretching his hand as much as possible, but his fingertips could only touch the "hair" of the ball.
His expression didn't change much. He didn't expect to intercept the ball immediately. He just wanted to defend vigorously.
Yi Jianlian let out all the breath he was holding in his heart. After a loud roar, the muscles in his right hand tightened and he hit the basket with all his strength.
The fans at the scene screamed with excitement. It was so exciting. This was a duel between Yang Zhenxing and his opponent James. This time, Yang Zhenxing definitely won.
