As the leading team, the Heat called a timeout, and the scene was in an uproar.
The message board of the domestic hunting fox sports live broadcast room is now very busy.
Someone gave high praise: "It's too exaggerated. There is actually a Chinese player who can block LeBron James' dunk head-on. That's James!"
Some people are still not optimistic about the Trail Blazers: "It's just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse. Who doesn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? The Heat are a trio of giants. I can't think of a reason for their failure."
More people remain neutral: "No matter from which perspective, the King's tough defensive attitude is enough for many people to learn from."
?TNT live broadcast room.
"It's really incredible. You have to know that many inside players in the league will subconsciously choose to avoid James' dunks. I didn't expect that Wang would dare to confront him head-on... and win." Kenny Smith said.
"I'm on your side this time!"
"Guarding the basket is the most important responsibility of every center. It is a red line that cannot be violated. Wang has implemented this with his own actual actions. I can see in him the extraordinary period of the super centers of the last century.
Time; in my opinion, many centers now were weak in the 80s and 90s."
Barkley rarely made any excuses and agreed with his partner Kenny Smith.
At the game site, the timeout ended and the players from both teams returned to the court.
The way James looked at Wang Zelin finally changed.
Instead of looking down and being relaxed when looking at younger generations, there is more respect and vigilance when dealing with opponents of the same level.
He knew very well that if he didn't adjust his mentality, he might really lose this game.
"I am the king!"
The O'Brien Trophy he received last year brought James' confidence to the highest peak of his career. At this moment, he firmly believes that his strength has surpassed No. 24 on the West Coast.
That viper is almost 34, but I am only 28.
"The future is mine!"
…
Heat offense.
James connected with Wade at the top of the key and held the ball to signal his teammates to pull away.
In the last minute or so of the game, at this critical moment, what fans love most is undoubtedly the ultimate performance of personal heroism.
And James is a well-deserved hero among Heat fans.
"LeBron!!!MVP!!!"
"LeBron!!!MVP!!!"
"..."
Of course, James will not disappoint his fans, and a familiar script begins to play out.
Holding the ball sideways with his right hand and making a gesture with his left hand, substitute center Joel Freeland quickly brought it up to block James.
Joel Freeland and Wang Zelin are both rookies in the 12th draft, and both were first-round picks.
The difference is that the latter is famous all over the world, while the former does nothing.
But little people have their advantages.
The white European center who was born in England understood his task on the court and quickly provided a high-quality cover for James.
Will Barton, who is also a rookie, is obviously not as good as Batum in breaking the pick-and-roll. Faced with the opponent's pick-and-roll tactics, he can only call on his teammates to fill in.
It's a pity that James' explosive power is too outstanding. After passing Will Barton in one step...
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise that shocked the entire audience.
Wang Zelin failed to defend in time, and James was already on the ground.
“Ouch!!!!”
James roared on the spot, and punched his strong chest with his right hand.
"Wang, you are indeed very good, but victory can only belong to Miami."
James said to Wang Zelin who was coming towards him, his eyes full of solemnity.
"It's only three points, don't think it's safe!"
Wang Zelin's eyes were on fire and he glared at James fiercely.
The two of them obviously had a real fire, and they didn't have the harmony that you praised me for before the game.
When the Trail Blazers attacked, Wang Zelin ran back and suddenly moved to the basket. Joel Freeland quickly followed up, and Wade on the other side moved over quietly.
Wang Zelin caught the ball, and Wade had already rushed behind him and jumped high into the air.
"Buckle it, buckle it quickly!"
Wade couldn't wait to press the ball in Wang Zelin's hand.
The expected scene did not happen.
As if there were eyes in the back of his head, Wang Zelin took a step with his left foot to avoid Wade's block. Joel Freeland raised his hands to prevent Wang Zelin from hooking.
"Damien!"?
After evading the two defenses one after another, Wang Zelin did not choose the wall, but distributed the ball to the outside.
"Oops!"
James' vigilance suddenly went to the highest level and he rushed towards Lillard outside the three-point line.
It's a pity that James is a mortal body after all and cannot teleport. His brain can react, but his body may not be able to keep up.
Lillard on the outside didn't hesitate after receiving the ball and made a decisive move.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc, and time suddenly became extremely long, tugging the hearts of all the players on the field and the spectators outside the field together.
No way?
The fans in the front row were secretly expecting something.
The result was the opposite.
"Whoosh!"
The crisp sound of passing through the net caused a burst of mourning from the fans in the audience.
97:97, the equalizer goal.
"Return to defense!"
After scoring the goal, Lillard did not do any celebrations, but called on his teammates to come back quickly.
The Heat's counterattack and fast break are notoriously fast in the league.
"Are all the rookies this year so good?"
A trace of surprise flashed across James's eyes. From Anthony Davis, whom he had been courting since high school, to Wang Zelin, whom he had fallen in love with at the Olympics, the number 0 in front of him... the harem group might consider adding another member.
Wang Zelin: Who the hell fell in love with you at first sight?
…
It was the Heat's turn to counterattack, Wade changed speed and dribbled, and Lillard stayed close to him.
In terms of physical confrontation and strength competition, Wade clearly had the advantage, making another drastic breakthrough and passing Lillard.
Knowing that Lillard, whose defense was average, was passed, he was unwilling to do anything and tried his best to cover up the defense.
After crossing the service line, Wang Zelin rushed up to stop Wade's attack and was in a good position in advance, preparing to cause an offensive foul on the latter.
As a veteran who has been in the league for many years, how could Wade not know what Wang Zelin was thinking.
“It’s still a broken picture!”
Wade flicked up and the basketball passed Wang Zelin's defensive area.
This is……
Janeway is connected!
James cut in from the bottom corner at some point, leaped high to catch the ball, and went straight to the Trail Blazers' basket.
Bang~~~
"LeBron James!!!!"
The Heat's most entertaining attack mode caused a burst of cheers from the fans in the audience.
99:97.
Since the last quarter, the score difference between the two teams has increased alternately, and the situation of chasing each other has occurred at least 5 times.
This shows the intensity of tonight's game.
There were 41 seconds left on the clock. On the Trail Blazers' side, Wang Zelin was exhausted and in a physical crisis. Lillard was blocked by Wade on the outside. Aldridge shouldered the offensive responsibility, using his skillful skills in the low post to turn over and score a jump shot.
