NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 200 Sao Nian, the future is yours
At 51:69, the point difference was about to approach 20 points, and the Trail Blazers quickly called a timeout.

The rhythm is broken!

On the Trail Blazers bench, everyone looked at coach Terry Stotts with a confused look.

After all, a team headed by a group of young people is easy to be excited and at the same time easily lost in the face of difficulties.

"You said, can we still win?"

Mike Roberts poked Batum, who was silent beside him.

"This……"

Batum froze for a moment and didn't answer.

Their opponent is not the super fish like the Magic in the last game, but the Miami Heat, the league's leading super team. In front of such an opponent, falling behind by 18 points is tantamount to being sentenced to death in advance.

"Boys, this is not the time to be weak!" Coach Terry shouted in disappointment, staring at the players around him.

"What about your unstoppable spirit?"

"It's only 18 points. Are we going to admit defeat like this?"

"No, I won't admit defeat!"

Lillard erupted, his expression was solemn, and his fists were clenched tightly.

"And the defense? Where's the perimeter defense? I can't see it at all."

Coach Terry's decibels increased again.

After shooting Batum and Lillard, seeing that the two were speechless, Coach Terry continued: "Cheer me up, don't give them an easy shot on the defensive end."

"I see!"

Batum nodded immediately.

"Damien..."

In front of the Heat's bench, Coach Spoelstra was very happy. Although the offensive tactical arrangements on the field had little to do with him, no matter how you say it, James used his tactical board, and there was always a sense of participation.

"Good job! Let's play more inside. The rookie on the opposite side has already fouled three times. In order to reduce unnecessary troubles, we should beat him down as soon as possible. Don't you think so, LeBron?"

Coach Spoel said.

"Ok!"

James nodded while wiping his sweat.

Since all members of the Heat team have excellent outside touch, Wang Zelin did a lot of running back and forth tonight, but this did not affect Wang Zelin's harvest of rebounds in the slightest.

13 rebounds in the half!
It can only be said that the Heat have always lacked a true center and cannot provide the team with rebound protection. This link will become their biggest weakness.

"The next step is to target the Blazers' outside shot, even if it is two points or three points, we must maintain the point difference." After speaking, James turned back and added to his teammates.

"The number 0 on the opposite side is handed over to me, and I will keep an eye on him." Wade chuckled.

今天韦德表现颇为出色，在第二节一整节时间没上场的情况下，5投4中得到9分2篮板1助攻，失误为0。

"Ray, Sean, pay attention to the No. 2 and No. 5 of the Blazers. They don't feel bad today. In order to quickly chase points, they will definitely increase their shots from the outside." James added.

After the two nodded, James felt that the timeout was almost over and ended his speech.

game restart

Looking at the players on the field, Coach Terry looked at everything on the field with anxiety.

I don't know if this group of young people can withstand such a lot of pressure.

"Now that the players from the two teams are back on the field, the Trail Blazers, who are 18 points behind, have not adjusted their personnel, and the same is true for the Heat as the leader." Yang said.

"This is already their best lineup, but unfortunately there is indeed a gap in strength." Director Zhang shook his head.

The performance of the Trail Blazers so far in this game is not bad. Both Wang Zelin and his teammates have played the level that a dark polo team should have.

It's a pity that what they encountered was the ultimate boss of the NBA - the Miami Heat!

The last time the Trail Blazers were able to defeat the Heat, a large part of the factor was Wang Zelin's final buzzer lore.

Xinglang studio.

The Chinese fans belong to two factions and are having a fierce quarrel.

"I said earlier, the last time the Blazers were able to defeat the Heat, there was a proper element of luck in it." Heat fan A.

"That's right, that stupid big guy Wang Zelin's last kill was just God's face. After God didn't take their side this time, the strength gap between the two teams finally showed."

Heat fan B.

"..."

Blazers fans wanted to retort, but the huge point difference made their opinion choices so weak.

In sports competition, the strongest is king!
In addition to being more sympathetic, it is difficult for the lagging side to catch up with the winning side in other ways.

……

American Airlines Arena.

In the frontcourt, Lillard wanted to grab a three-pointer, but Wade was already prepared and stuck close, and he couldn't find a chance at all.

"here!"

Wang Zelin at the basket had the advantage over the tonnage and shorter Bosh. After receiving Lillard's lob, he turned around and squeezed Bosh away.

At 53:69, Wang Zelin scored two points to help the Trail Blazers slow down. He knew that the point difference must not be widened to 20 points. That would be too dangerous.

The offensive and defensive transition, the Heat attacked, James advanced to the audience ignoring Batum in front of him, and began his iconic tank breakthrough.

Batum bit the bullet and went up, the fierce body confrontation hit again, and then he was knocked away again.

This bull...

Batum has no intention of complaining. The continuous physical confrontation has exhausted him physically and mentally. The consumption of James is too great for him, even more than the usual three quarters of the game.

James broke through from the right, Aldridge came from the bottom corner to help defend, Battier has missed.

But James didn't pass the ball, and he only had one goal~Wang Zelin!
The last time Wang Zelin, a rookie, blocked himself and Wade at the critical moment of the game, he will always remember it.

He wants to get it back!
Feeling that James was getting closer and closer, Wang Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly, and the alarm from inside his body reached its peak in an instant.

"Come on, LeBron!"

Wang Zelin yelled at James not far away.

"Okay!"

Stepping into the reasonable collision zone, James who completed the sprint looks like a flying tank, which is bound to destroy all obstacles in front of him.

"LeBron James!!!"

The DJ at the American Airlines Arena couldn't bear the excitement in his heart and began to shout.

On the court, the familiar scene was repeated again.

Developing this No. 36 is like the last time he blocked James, and he proved his tough attitude with actions.

"Don't forget, this is a no-fly zone!"

Wang Zelin yelled violently and jumped up on the spot.

The bodies of the two got closer and closer, and James pulled the ball with his right hand behind him with all his strength, and then slammed it towards the basket.

"LeBron! He is a natural king. His dunks are among the outside players. Throughout the ages~ no one can beat him!"

Accompanied by the voice of the DJ, all the goalkeepers in the American Airlines Arena stood up, wanting to witness James's slam dunk completely defeating the Trail Blazers, proud of the inside defense.

However, when the two had physical contact, James' face quickly changed.

The strength of this rookie seems to have become stronger, and the oppressive feeling on his body...

How can this be?

As a historical super giant, James pays special attention to the changes in the strength of his opponents.

It stands to reason that even if every rookie who has just entered the NBA makes progress during the regular season, that progress is very slow and subtle.

Even he was the same back then.

No one's progress in the regular season can catch up with the offseason.

Looking at the rookie in front of him, it exceeded his expectations.

After a brief moment of surprise, James' expression became even more excited.

So what if the opponent is stronger?
Anyway, he will not be stronger than himself!
Because I'm LeBron James!
James, who has rarely met an opponent in the vertical and horizontal league for nearly ten years, after winning the first championship of his career, an "invincible" temperament appeared in his whole body.

Especially in a year when L.A.'s No. 24 is clearly in decline.

Others only saw No. 24's career-high average of 30 points per game, but for James, who has studied advanced statistics, he knew very well that No. 24 was old after all.

The old blacksmith can no longer dominate the offensive and defensive ends as he once did, and even maintaining the output of the offensive end is enough.

Except for Oklahoma's No. 35, James, who is polite to everyone on the surface, is extremely proud in his heart. He doesn't pay attention to any active players at all.

Now, maybe consider adding another number 36.

After having physical contact with James, Wang Zelin's eyes showed determination.

You can't buckle this ball!

With the right timing, Wang Zelin pointed his right hand in a certain direction and took a shot.

Years of experience tell James that if he chooses to be tough at this time, there is a high probability that he will be defended by his opponent, or even blocked.

But again, he is LeBron James.

Although he is optimistic about the young man in front of him, James is optimistic about him two or three years later.

Now~ you are still too young!
You can't stop me!
"Oh!"

"Snapped!"

Two loud bangs came one after another.

A jaw-dropping scene appeared in front of him.

James was strongly disturbed by Wang Zelin in the air, and the iconic tomahawk smashed and dunked. Just when the Blazers fans were overjoyed, the referee's whistle suddenly sounded.

Defensive foul?

The referee called a defensive foul.

Fortunately, the core strength of the two is particularly strong. Although they did not stand firmly after landing, they did not fall to the ground in embarrassment.

He was really on guard!
James' face was full of disbelief.

I didn't cover it!

On the opposite side, Wang Zelin also had 4 words written on his face ~ unbelievable.

In the hearts of the two, one was shocked that the opponent was able to interfere with his full-power dunk, and the other was shocked that the opponent escaped his deadly block in the air.

Through slow-motion playback, James made minor adjustments at the last moment, thus avoiding Wang Zelin's block. When the interference given to him by the latter was already in place, the ball did not come close after all.

And Wang Zelin's hand trying to block the shot finally hit James' wrist.

According to the principle of handball integration in basketball rules: when the ball touches the shooter after the shot is released, it is not considered a hitman foul.

But because the attack and defense of the two happened in an instant, the line referee behind him didn't notice anything wrong, and subconsciously called a defensive foul.

And what about the two parties?
James knew in his heart that he was unreasonable, and he would definitely not act good if he got a cheap one, so he quietly stood on the free throw line.

Wang Zelin, who was misjudged, also did not have a dispute, because he knew that there was a thing called the super star whistle.

Moreover, the referee has already made a penalty during the game, and there will be almost no change. At most, it will be what the referee said in the post-match penalty report.

"Will the Trail Blazers replace Wang Si? Charles, if it were you, how would you choose?" Kenny Smith said

"Of course I won't choose to replace the king." Barkley shook his head and continued: "The Trail Blazers are now behind by a large score. Replacing the king will only make their hearts sink faster. It is better to die slowly than to die." Make a last stand."

The Trail Blazers bench, coach Terry, as Barkley said, did not carry out personnel transfers.

At this moment, all he can do is trust his players.

"Bang!"

"Shh!"

With James' two free throws and one hit, the score on the spot came to 53:70, and the American Airlines Arena suddenly burst into cheers!
This is the heroic appearance of No.1 in active service in the league, and his every move can affect the hearts of countless people.

"Wang, among the younger generation of players, I would like to call you the strongest!"

During the retreat, James and Wang Zelin went hand in hand.

"Oh!"

The corner of Wang Zelin's mouth twitched.

"Young man, maybe the future will be yours, but now~ it's mine!"

I am Nima!
Wang Zelin never expected that the legendary phrase "The future is yours" would come from James' mouth, and the target was himself.

"Eh……"

When he was distracted, James suddenly accelerated and walked away.

People's hearts are not old, and the world is going downhill!
Unexpectedly, No. 6 with thick eyebrows and big eyes is actually this kind of person.

Gan!
Perhaps to prove what he said, the third quarter was completely reduced to James' performance time.

After that, he took 9 shots and hit 8 goals, including two three-pointers from the outside. He scored 19 points in a single quarter. The American Airlines Arena became a show for James alone.

With James' explosive performance, the morale of the Heat team reached a peak. Ray Allen, Battier and others on the perimeter performed well. The team made 25 of 17 shots in the third quarter, and the hit rate was as high as 68%. Many of them hit three-pointers.

39 points in a single quarter!
James created the regular season scoring record in a single quarter since joining the Heat.

78:105, the Blazers scored 27 points in a single quarter, but fell behind their opponents by 29 points.

Again, the Blazers' performance tonight is definitely not bad, but the performance of the opponent who can't hold back is even better.

One-star shooting is really suitable for James. As long as the outside shooters are strong, he can kill everyone.

At this time, the Blazers ushered in the most difficult moment. Their insider Optimus Prime Wang Zelin had committed five fouls, and the fifth foul was caused by Wade.

It seems that the big cheek gang is also brooding about the last block.

After three quarters, Wang Zelin's personal data came to 23 points, 18 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists. His performance was extremely versatile.

Moreover, the third quarter has just ended, and the fourth quarter has not yet been played. No one knows how good No. 36's stats will be after the game is over?
However, it is not an egg.

Everyone knows that the performance on the 36th tonight is likely to be all in vain.

The certificate of appointment of the group leader of the empty cutting group is waiting for him!
　The Tokyo Olympic Men's Basketball Qualifying Tournament will be held from June 6 to July 29. It happened to be a holiday at that time, and I had time to watch the game.

　　Eh~ How should I put it, although I know that there is little hope of breaking through, I still have to support what should be supported.

　　Cursing is scolding, but I still hope that Zhou Qi can really create a miracle!

　　After UAE retired, the Chinese men's basketball team can only rely on him at this stage.
