NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 165 The Reassuring James
"WOW! The Heat's penalty area is completely dominated by Wang. Look at the beautiful low-post footsteps. Double-teaming is completely useless for him. He already has all the prerequisites for becoming a superstar." Barkley praised.

Many people thought that Barkley would definitely have a bad relationship with Yao Ming because of the donkey butt kissing incident. As everyone knows, for Barkley with high EQ, this incident deepened the friendship between him and Yao Ming.

Today, the relationship between Barkley and Wang Zelin has always been like this.

Through a bet, he not only obtained countless traffic, but also announced to the outside world that he had become a fan of Wang Zelin.

what?
Wasn't Barkley a sunspot before?

Sorry, Barkley never made his position clear.

"Harrison and Bosh are both guilty now. If the Heat can't find a solution to Wang Zelin's inside problem, I'm afraid this game will have to be played." Kenny Smith apologized.

"That's up to LeBron."

Barkley shrugged and said in a very flat tone.

For old-school players like Barkley, after making the decision 1.0, James' impression points dropped rapidly in their hearts.

Thanks to the Heat's success in winning the championship last season, Barkley would definitely not be able to control his big mouth two years ago, and would 100% spray on the spot.

On the field.

Bosh stood in front of the referee. As one of the big three, although he was the one with the least presence, but no matter what, the star had to show the strength that the star should have.

Of course, this does not mean that Bosh is challenging the referee, but expresses his attitude.

After all, it would be hard for anyone to be beaten up like this by a rookie, let alone a well-known star like Bosh who once served as the boss of a team.

"Sir, I respect your penalty very much," Bosh first gave the referee enough face, and the latter nodded slightly.

He went on to say: "But I don't think there is any problem with Harrison's position just now. There is a reasonable collision zone. We can't ignore the difficulties of the defender just because of the offensive viewing."

The referee did not respond, but only signaled the Heat to send the sideline kick quickly.

"Ha ha!"

Bosh chuckled and went to the front court to settle down.

Sometimes, not speaking means acquiescing.

Swap offense and defense, the Heat attack.

Bosh asked for the ball in the low post, and he was going to get one himself. James understood it and quickly handed the ball over.

Faced with Aldridge, who was defending himself, Bosh turned over and shot a jumper.

As an inside scorer with 5+ points for five consecutive seasons, after Bosh came to the Heat to form the Big Three with James and Wade, his statistics in all aspects have declined.

But this does not mean that Bosh's strength really fluctuates as violently as the data he has shown.

The Dragon King is still the Dragon King he used to be. It is only because of his embarrassing tactical status that he now has an embarrassing existence in the hearts of fans.

"Ow!!!"

After hitting the shot, Bosh couldn't help himself and let out his signature roar.

At this time, Aldridge immediately stood up and hit a response ball, or in other words, the "Spirit Ball!" which is still very popular now!

Today's NBA is not like it was later, encouraging players to find mismatches in order to seek high efficiency.

For a star like Aldridge, as long as he encounters a player of his own level and makes a beautiful goal under his own defense, he must respond with action.

It's about face!

"Shh!"

After receiving a pass from Batum in the low post, Aldridge shook and scored a decisive jumper.

66: 68.

Seeing this, Bosh, not to be outdone, turned his head and hit the hook under the basket with flexible steps.

66: 70.

On the Trail Blazers side, Aldridge continued to ask for singles, as silent as he was, and the anger in his heart was also beaten out.

It's a pity that Aldridge, who was squeezed out, subconsciously ignored the advantages of the flexibility of the Heat's small lineup. Just when he just shot, LeBron James on the other side quickly moved across.

"Snapped!"

Strong volleyball hat!
The blocking of inside players from the outside line is a very morale-boosting defensive defense in the NBA. The atmosphere in the American Airlines Arena exploded instantly. Wade grabbed the ball that was blocked by James and went straight to the Trail Blazers half.

"Back to defense!"

Trail Blazers coach Terry Stotts yelled, Lillard, the fastest, clinging to Wade.

Although Wade has fallen out of the superstar level, his body is still among the best in the back line.

Wade ignored Lillard next to him, forced a breakthrough, reached the paint and scored a layup.

Lillard didn't stop the car and was very close to Wade, so...

"Di!"

And one!

"Dwyane! Wade!! Our team soul stood up!!!"

"MVP!!!!"

The live DJ exploded in place, and the cheers of the surrounding fans resounded through the audience.

"Shh!"

Wadega made a free throw, two plus one.

Excluding the 09-10 season, when the free throw percentage was the worst, it was only 67.5%. Wade's free throw percentage did not fall below 70% in the next few seasons.

Such a shooting rate is far from good among defenders, and it can barely be said to be a pass.

What's more, players like Wade will never be soft at critical times.

The Blazers attacked, and Batum ran out of space after using the screen, but it was a pity that he hit the iron with a three-pointer.

"rebound!"

Bosh signaled Harrison to get stuck, and when he was about to grab a defensive rebound, a huge impact force suddenly came from behind, forcing him aside.

"Oh!"

Wang Zelin succeeded in taking off and dunking, and Bosh enjoyed the usual treatment of Pau Gasol.

68: 73.

The difference between the two sides returned to 5 points.

"It's really tenacious!"

Heat coach Spoelstra sat off the court, observing the changes on the court, slightly surprised by the resilience shown by the Trail Blazers.

Before the game, as the defending champion bishop, he didn't pay attention to the so-called "dark horse" of the Blazers at all.

But now, he began to put away his contempt.

"Perhaps, you can consider letting LeBron play the whole game next!"

Coach Spoelstra thought so.

No way, James is too versatile. Many tactics in the Heat team were formulated by him and his teammates alone. To be honest, Coach Spoelstra has less power to speak than James.

However, Spoel is in it, as long as the team can win anyway.

Unless it is a head coach like Phil Jackson and Simavich who is both famous and powerful, and has a strong desire for control, many head coaches in the league must be willing to coach James.

So much peace of mind!

Moreover, since joining the Heat, it has become a norm for James to play the whole game at every turn.

What to do if the team encounters difficulties, just give the ball to James.

This is the victory code learned by coach Spoelstra after winning the championship last year.

Back on the field.

The scores of the two sides were stalemate. Under the leadership of the Big Three, whenever the Heat took a slight lead, the Blazers immediately rushed to catch up, and someone could stand up and narrow the score.

At the end of the three quarters, the Heat's total score was 76:73, only leading the Blazers by 3 points, entering the final quarter.

The situation on the court was as shown in the first half.

Both sides have points that are difficult to limit, and no one can prevent the other.

This game is not only a contest between stars, but also a contest between spirit, will and physical strength.

Whoever can last longer is the final winner.

　May 2021, 5 is an extremely sad day. The contemporary Shennong left us so suddenly. I really hope that someone can come out to refute the rumors for the second time like this morning.

　　I remember a few days ago, I saw Yuan Lao’s ghost animals on station B...

　　The world is unpredictable, cherish the moment!
