Wade dribbled the ball across half court, handed the ball to Chris Bosh at the top of the arc, and then started running. Chris Bosh caught the ball at the left end of the free throw line and made a jumper, and the ball went into the net.
Although Chris Bosh is often criticized for his style of play, his ability is indeed not vegetarian. Although this guy is not always efficient offensively, he has proven in many games that he is a true giant.
!
Chen Feng seemed to be a little excited today because he was facing off against bosses like Wade and James. While controlling the ball at the top of the key, he suddenly made a secret upward gesture toward Derrick Favors.
Then he threw the ball over the basket and assisted Derrick Favors for an alley-oop.
Derrick Favors scored 4 points in a row and roared excitedly.
In this case, the fans at the scene naturally roared loudly and cheered for their team!
Perhaps influenced by the home fans, Wade stood up at this time. He continuously attacked the Spurs' basket, either directly scoring points, or scoring foul shots.
Under the leadership of Wade, the Heat had a 9:4 spurt.
The Spurs suddenly lost their offensive rhythm, and the inside line, which had a huge advantage, could not open up.
Popovich was forced to request a timeout, hoping to use this timeout to cool down the Heat.
After the timeout, the Heat's hand was indeed not as hot as before.
However, in the following period, the Spurs' offense was not very good.
Chen Feng received Tracy McGrady's pass from the top of the arc, broke through with the ball, made a pull-up jumper, and threw the ball into the basket.
"Yes!" Chen Feng clenched his fists.
At this time, the Spurs needed a player to step up. But Chen Feng was so excited when he stepped up and helped the team.
Wade received James' breakthrough ball at the bottom line and jumped up. When Chen Feng rushed to block the shot, he quickly passed the ball to Chris Bosh behind Chen Feng. The latter caught the ball and made a jump shot.
2 points.
Chen Feng took advantage of Leonard's support and shot from outside the three-point line. With a "swish" sound, Chen Feng scored another 3 points.
The Heat's attack was fruitless. After Chen Feng grabbed the defensive rebound, he launched a fast break. However, the Heat's offensive and defensive transition was also very fast, effectively preventing the Spurs' fast break.
After Leonard missed a high jump shot, Chris Bosh once again grabbed a defensive rebound.
The two sides just went back and forth, and the Spurs never caught up with the score and were always 4 or 5 points behind.
Until the end of the first quarter, the Spurs were still 4 points behind the Heat 21:25. The Spurs only scored 21 points in the first quarter, which is enough to show how powerful the Heat's defense is.
In the first quarter of the game, Wade scored 10 points, 3 assists, and 3 rebounds. It was thanks to his eye-catching performance that the Heat were able to lead the Spurs by 4 points at 25:21.
Chen Feng, who played against Wade, performed pretty well. He made three of five shots, including a three-pointer, and scored 7 points, 4 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal.
However, he was also guarded by Wade and James and made two mistakes. From this, we can see how terrifying Wade's defense is.
Although he has never been elected as the best defensive player, Wade has been selected to the best defensive team many times.
In all games in the playoffs, Chen Feng controlled his mistakes very well. There was no game with more than 3 mistakes.
In tonight's game, the Heat made Chen Feng make two mistakes in the first quarter.
"Chen, how are you doing with your rest? Can you play now?" Popovich asked Chen Feng.
Chen Feng replied without hesitation: "Greg, I can play."
After hearing Chen Feng's answer, Popovich smiled and nodded.
The second quarter of the game started quickly, and the lineups of both sides made adjustments again at this time.
Heat:
Cole, Ray Allen, James, Shane Battier and Birdman Anderson.
Spurs:
Mills, Chen Feng, Wesley Johnson, Boris Diaw, Tim Duncan.
Cole brought the ball to the frontcourt. Although the guy opposite him was this year's MVP, he was not afraid at all. Facing Chen Feng's defense, he was neither humble nor overbearing.
Cole is a very offensive point guard, whose style is somewhat similar to Wade's. However, he does not have Wade's excellent passing ability.
The Heat's Anderson received a pass from Cole at the basket, relied on Tim Duncan to dribble twice in the low post, then turned around and threw the ball with a hook.
The basketball spun around on the hoop, but still failed to score. Chen Feng grabbed a defensive rebound from the right baseline.
James is almost an all-around player and can play from the 1st to the 4th position, and even the 5th position. The Heat's offense usually consists of him, Chris Bosh and Wade.
Chen Feng controlled the ball for half the game. Facing Ray Allen's almost airtight defense, Chen Feng shook a few times in succession. Then he put his left foot on the ground a little and made a crossover. In the first step, he passed half of Ray Allen.
position, and then accelerated again in the second step, already leaving him two positions behind.
Chen Feng entered one step inside the free throw line and jumped up to shoot. Only Birdman Anderson was left in front of him.
Birdman Anderson watched Chen Feng shoot and quickly wanted to jump up to block the shot. But just as he pounced on him, Chen Feng's body suddenly twisted and then passed the ball out from behind Birdman Anderson.
.
"Bang"
A huge noise rang in the arena, Tim Duncan grabbed the rim tightly with both hands, and then fell down.
Chen Feng and Tim Duncan struck three times in a row, then quickly retreated to defend.
On the Spurs bench, the players all stood up and applauded the cooperation between Chen Feng and Tim Duncan.
In the transition between offense and defense, the biggest goal of the substitutes is to hold on to the score under the leadership of James and reduce the pressure on the team. After all, although the Heat's substitutes are very strong, they are really struggling against the Spurs' substitute lineup, which is the best in the league.
It doesn't have much of an advantage.
Ray Allen dribbled the ball forward and then handed it to Cole. Cole dribbled through and then made a pull-up jumper.
As a result, Wesley Johnson, who was rotated over, was severely blocked. Chen Feng grabbed the defensive rebound and dribbled the ball towards the Heat half court.
Chen Feng quickly reached the Heat's basket, which was empty at this time.
Jump up, turn 360 degrees in the air, and swing your arms around the windmill.
"Bang"
There was another huge noise, but this one was more shocking than the previous one.
"Good shot." McGrady off the court couldn't help but stand up and applaud Chen Feng.
"It's great, it's so cool." Derek Favors couldn't help but high-five his teammates in celebration.
Popovich, who was standing on the sidelines, shook his arms excitedly after seeing Chen Feng's 360-degree turn and slam dunk.
For Popovich to make such a move is enough to show how shocking Chen Feng's goal was.
It's not unreasonable for Chen Feng to do this. The Spurs' morale is not high right now. He must use this dunk to boost morale. Now that Wade and Chris Bosh are not on the court, he must lead the team to take advantage of the opportunity.
Tie the score, or even overtake it. Try to establish a good lead before Wade and Chris Bosh return to the court.
At 25:25, the Spurs scored 4 points in a row at the beginning of the second quarter and evened the score.
At this time, Heat coach Spoelstra had to request a timeout.
After this timeout, the Heat made adjustments.
Wade replaced Cole, James went off to rest, and Lewis came up.
For the Spurs, Derrick Favors also came up and replaced Boris Diaw.
Lewis passed the ball to Wade, and Mills, who was closest to Wade, immediately followed up.
Mills is also a desperate person now. He will not let Wade easily complete a fast break. In that case, the Heat's morale will be revived by this guy.
However, when he faced Wade head-on, he realized how terrifying Wade was in front of him.
I saw that after he passed half the court, his speed became very fast. He changed direction from left to right, and was passed by Wade.
Immediately afterwards, Wade stepped on the free throw line with his right foot and jumped high.
Wade is not very tall for the shooting guard position, but now that he is playing as a point guard, he is just tall enough. Coupled with his jumping, he can only dodge and stay in the air to avoid Derek Favor.
After Si blocked the shot, he slammed the ball into the basket.
The fans at the scene were shocked by this!
Glancing at the audience on the sidelines, Chen Feng took a deep breath and then received the baseline ball from his teammate.
Chen Feng cautiously came to the top of the arc, and Tim Duncan blocked him. Then he rushed into the paint from the right and jumped up to make a pull-up jumper.
Just as the basketball was about to leave his fingertips and draw a beautiful parabola in the air and enter the basket, at this time, a crisp and clear voice sounded.
"Pa", the basketball thrown by Chen Feng was blown away directly.
After Wade hit the ground, he didn't pause at all, and then quickly rushed towards the Spurs half court.
"Isn't this guy's reaction too fast?" Chen Feng was a little shocked.
While studying the King System, Chen Feng has improved his shooting speed a lot. His shooting speed was not slow to begin with, and his current shooting speed is comparable to that of shooters like Ray Allen.
But just now, he was directly blocked by Wade!
Isn't this guy unhealthy?
The basketball fell into Battier's hands. He immediately protected the ball after getting it, and then passed it to Wade, who controlled the ball and advanced toward the Spurs half.
