Reborn in the 96 golden generation

Chapter 599 Slashing 51 Points

What is even more irritating is that after the game, not only did his former friend O'Neill not comfort him, he even sprinkled salt on Zhou Yu's wound.

"Wang, this time you should know how good our Heat team is. Next, just wait patiently for us to win the championship at home."

O'Neill patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder, grinned and said.

"O'Neill, it was Wade who made the key shot at the last moment. Does it have anything to do with you? What are you talking about here?"

Zhou Yu replied unceremoniously.

"Wang, it doesn't matter who hits the key shot. The important thing is that I can beat you openly."

O'Neill smiled proudly.

Zhou Yu was speechless. O'Neal's logic is really good enough. If he stayed with the Lakers back then, he might have won a few more MVPs. Still so complacent, this is how much "hate" he is.

After losing the first game, the situation of the Lakers can be described as precarious, and the next game must be won, otherwise the suspense of the championship will end.

Two days later, the second game between the Lakers and the Heat came as scheduled, and the venue was still at the Lakers' home stadium, the Staples Arena.

The scene was packed and crowded, and the starting lineups of the two teams remained unchanged.

The overall thinking of the Lakers remains the same, still focusing on defending "The Flash" Wade, followed by O'Neal.

In order to maintain sufficient physical strength, Zhou Yu deliberately accumulated strength in the first three quarters of the game. He did not turn on the scoring mode too much, but used exquisite passing to continuously deliver "cannonballs" to his teammates.

Fortunately, Li Nan and Fisher's three-pointers, Yao Ming's turnaround hook, and Zhang Jinsong's fast break layup were all very powerful.

The Heat, on the other hand, focused on O'Neal in the first three quarters, coupled with Posey's three-pointer and Walker's mid-range shot, they played impressively. Wade was mainly responsible for "threading the needle" and the number of shots was very limited. It also seems to be deliberately accumulating strength.

The two sides played inextricably in the first three quarters, and the scores rose alternately.

When it came to the fourth quarter to decide the outcome, it basically fell into the mode of Zhou Yu and Wade confronting each other.

The scoring ability of both of them can be called terrifying, and various scoring methods emerge in endlessly, which are as dazzling as the offensive "kaleidoscope".

In the remaining minute or so, Zhou Yu's three-pointer suddenly broke out and hit two key three-pointers in succession, helping the Lakers finally beat the Heat with a three-point advantage of "86:83", rewriting the big score For "1:1" level.

In this game, Zhou Yu scored 43 points, 11 rebounds, and 8 assists. Wade did not give in. He scored 41 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists. The low hit rate of the ball has become the key to the game.

Although the Lakers equalized the big score, the situation is still not optimistic, because the next three games will be played at the Heat's home court. If the Heat can seize the home court advantage and win three games in a row, the Lakers will miss the championship.

Back home, the Heat really showed their power, especially "The Flash" Wade was like a "god descending from heaven", scoring 46 points from inside and outside shots, taking over half of the team's points, unstoppable.

Under Wade's brave performance, the Heat finally defeated the Lakers with a seven-point advantage of "88:81", rewriting the big score to "2:1".

Zhou Yu was deeply stimulated by Wade. In the fourth game of the finals between the two sides, he launched an attack with all his strength from the beginning, almost focusing all his attention on scoring.

In the whole game, Zhou Yu scored 51 points with his outstanding touch and perfect technique, including 10 of 8 three-pointers, breaking the record of three-pointers in a single game in the finals in one fell swoop. His scoring ability is extremely terrifying.

Under Zhou Yu's explosive performance, the Lakers finally defeated the Heat by "86:80" and six points, rewriting the big score to a "2:2" tie!

The next fifth "Battle of Tianwang Mountain" will soon become the "weather vane" of the ownership of the championship, and neither team can afford to lose.

The starting lineups for both sides are as follows:
Los Angeles Lakers:

Point guard: Fisher, Shooting guard: Zhang Jinsong, Small forward: Li Nan, Power forward: Wang Zhizhi, Center: Yao Ming.

Miami Heat:

Point guard: Williams, shooting guard: Wade, small forward: Posey, power forward: Walker, center: O'Neal.

Before the official start of the game, full-time basketball commentators Zhang Weiping and Su Qun carefully analyzed the game.

"Director Zhang, these two teams played really exciting games in the first four games, especially the performances of Dazhi and Wade are god-level. It is estimated that the defensive intensity of this game will be higher and stronger. It's going to be a tough test for both top scorers."

Su Qun sighed.

"Yeah, the scores of these two teams mainly come from Big Zhi and Wade, and the performance of the two of them did not disappoint. However, there are many factors that affect the outcome of the game. Judging from the current situation, Defense is going to be the key to how the game goes."

Zhang Weiping nodded.

"Director Zhang, the Lakers are a team that has had a defensive battle with the 'Iron Barrel' Pistons. They should be better than the Heat in terms of defense."

Su Qun said.

"Not necessarily. Although the overall defensive strength of the Heat team is not as good as that of the Pistons, their individual defensive ability is very strong. This directly caused the two outside shooters Li Nan and Fisher to not perform well, and Zhang Jinsong's breakthrough is also The threat is limited."

Zhang Weiping calmly analyzed.

"Yeah, if the Lakers' outside players played a little better, Dazhi might not have played so hard."

Su Qun nodded and agreed.

"So, the key to the outcome of this game is not the performance of the stars of the two teams, but the performance of other players."

Zhang Weiping asserted.

"Director Zhang, I have always thought that Yao Ming is a 'potential stock'. If he gets a few more points, the chances of winning for the Lakers will be even greater."

Su Qun said.

"Yao Ming has to face O'Neal's strong attack. His defense is under great pressure. It is already good to be able to restrain O'Neal. How can he have so much energy to participate in the offense."

Zhang Weiping sighed.

"Director Zhang is right. O'Neal didn't perform well in the first four games. Yao Ming contributed a lot. The next step is to see who has better luck."

Su Qun said.

After the scrimmage in the middle circle, Yao Ming took the lead to win the ball for the Lakers. Fisher held the ball for halftime, and the fifth game of "Battle of Tianwang Mountain" officially started.

Although Zhou Yu scored 51 points in the last game, he did not intend to break out prematurely in this game. He had a vague premonition that the intensity of this game would be beyond imagination. Will be hard to beat.

Therefore, Zhou Yu patiently fell to the low position. On the one hand, he planned to put pressure on the Heat inside and create opportunities for outside teammates. On the other hand, he also planned to help Yao Ming defend O'Neal and grab a few more rebounds by the way.

After three passes and two guides, the ball soon reached Zhou Yu's hands.

Zhou Yu immediately turned on the back-hitting mode, swayed his body, and punched Walker from the back.
