The Heat defeated the top and created the first dark horse drama in the playoffs. However, due to Jermaine O'Neal's injury, almost no one is optimistic that the Heat can succeed in the eighth round. Even if the Cavaliers are in trouble, they are still the Eastern Conference champion. Strength
After all, it is better than the Heat. Although Miami has created many surprises this year, it is still not favored.
In a sense, today's Miami Heat suffered the same treatment as Yang Mo. Although Yang Mo has played many jaw-dropping games one after another, the definition hanging on his head is still those five words: idol
Send players.
Those critics are used to describing some objective victories as coincidences, or accidents. However, there are no absolute coincidences in this world, let alone absolute accidents. Everything has a cause and effect.
It may appear out of thin air. There is some luck involved, but it is definitely not the whole story.
Jermaine O'Neal's injury report was announced at noon the day after the game. The front and rear cruciate ligaments were ruptured and the season was reimbursed. Jermaine O'Neal also expressed his thoughts on retiring.
As soon as this news came out, the expert commentators who were originally looking down on the Heat had more factual basis. They jumped out to analyze the impact of Jermaine O'Neal's departure on the Heat from various angles.
Although their confusion is varied, they can be summed up in one sentence: Jermaine O'Neal is the only inside player in the Miami team who can score independently in the penalty area. At the same time, he is also the last defensive yoke of Miami. His help defense gives a weak defense
A strong barrier for the Heat.
And now, he's gone.
There is no center available on the Heat's bench. The aging Magloire also entered the hospital last week. His old injury has been bothering his waist, and he has reached the age of retirement.
It is simply impossible to withstand the intensity of the playoffs again.
The playoffs are a stage for defense, and the most important thing about defense is the guardian of the penalty area. This is why in this era of declining centers, an insider who averages a double-double per game can easily get an annual salary of tens of millions. Because, no matter the era
No matter how it is changed, the saying that whoever gets the penalty area wins remains unbreakable.
But now, the Heat only have a bunch of mediocre forwards left. Miami's staffing was originally very shabby. Apart from a few players, the substitutes were already at the level of the NBA, and they couldn't even make it to the playoffs.
It has already fallen beyond the eyes of the world, but you still want to make a fool of yourself? Are you talking nonsense?
When the whole world was not optimistic about the Heat's victory, Yang Mo locked himself in the hotel room and watched the Cavaliers' tapes from this season over and over again. The Cavaliers' offensive routine is not complicated.
Almost every set of tactics uses James as the starting point. However, the links are intertwined, especially when defending, and the echoes between each other are particularly good. And the most important thing is that the Heat do not have a center, and the Cavaliers can easily
Let's put out three or four centers with completely different styles.
This is the difficulty of the difficulties.
If they play run-and-gun, they have a center who can play run-and-gun, and if they play positional offense, they have a center who can attack. But no matter what tactics the Heat use, they don't have a center.
After watching it for nearly a day, Yang Mo gritted his teeth and said, "I have no choice but to do it."
Yang Mo made up his mind to single-handedly challenge all the knights inside. Although the road ahead was full of difficulties, Yang Mo felt very heroic after making up his mind. He didn't care about the millions of generals in Cao's camp. He would kill seven in and seven out first.
!
Yang Mo is full of lofty ideals, but the morale of the team is also extremely low. Yang Mo is not affected by the outside world, but others are, and very affected by it.
Everyone looked listless, as if they had already prepared their bags for offseason fishing.
Seeing this, Yang Mo wanted to say something, but he knew that words were far less powerful than actions. He just chatted with Dwyane Wade. To be honest, Wade's confidence was not very high. He also did a good job.
Be mentally prepared to be eliminated.
However, Yang Mo easily convinced him and made him full of fighting spirit. The reason he used was very simple: "I would rather die standing than surrender on my knees. No one can make me surrender before the final whistle."
.I think you are the same as me, we should be the same kind of people."
Wade may have shortcomings in his personal life, but as a professional player, his fighting spirit is definitely the best, and his desire for victory far exceeds his pursuit of everything else. Therefore, Yang Mo can easily convince him
.
And just when Yang Mo and Wade were coming together, the 007 crew became pig teammates for once.
They announced the launch of the crew one day before the second game of the playoffs, and claimed at the press conference that starring Yang Mo would soon join the crew.
When these words spread, even a fool would think of the recent playoffs. Almost everyone thought that Yang Mo gave up the game. You see, he has already started busy making movies.
In an instant, this news exploded in the basketball circle, and countless commentators came out to criticize Yang Mo's professional ethics. They finally found material that they could use to shamelessly commit crimes.
Many basketball stars also came forward to accuse Yang Mo of this behavior, including Magic Johnson: "We do not object to players filming movies, but being distracted before the game is over is definitely unprofessional behavior. Yang
He should reflect on himself, he seems to have been lost in the overwhelming cheers and screams. Before becoming a Hollywood superstar, he was still an NBA basketball player."
Originally, Yang Mo didn't want to respond to the stupid commentators' accusations, but this kind of public opinion has affected the team. Many players began to ask where Yang Mo will go in the summer? and whether he needs a supporting role in the movie he is shooting.
Once this kind of negative emotion ferments among the players, then just surrender in the next game. The game is always for five people. Even if two of you work hard and the other three don't cooperate, there is still one way: lose!
Coupled with the fact that some basketball celebrities whom Yang Mo respected came out to criticize him, Yang Mo had to give a very serious response when reporters asked: "I don't know why the crew would spread such news. So far,
I have no contact with them, everything is handled by my agent. In addition, please rest assured that all friends who are paying attention to this matter, I will never give up the game. My self-esteem cannot tolerate a passive self. Even if
Everyone thought the Miami Heat would lose this series, and I would fight until the last second, until the bullets ran out, until I was carried off the battlefield."
After Yang Mo's words spread, the doubts did not stop immediately, but intensified. Sometimes, saying it is never as good as doing it.
Saying ten thousand words is not worth a real fight on the court, so Yang Mo never spoke again after making these remarks.
But LeBron James jumped out without losing the opportunity and said with confidence: "The loss in the last game was because we have not adjusted our status from the regular season to the playoffs. Our goal is the championship, so we are absolutely
We won’t lose in the first round. If there are no accidents, we will end the battle in the fifth game.”
What LeBron James said is arrogant.
However, almost all viewers felt that what he said made sense, because the Heat were indeed no longer competitive.
At the same time, major gambling companies have also opened handicap, and almost all of them have the Cavaliers handicap of more than 10. The odds of the Heat winning are actually 1:10. In other words, if you bet 10 million US dollars on the Heat winning, then after the game
, you will have $100 million back in your pocket.
This is a tempting odds, but few people dare to put the money in their pockets because more people think that the money will be wasted.
