Chapter 274
The new year started with 5 consecutive victories. After two days of rest, the Phoenix Suns ushered in a tough battle. The Miami Heat led by O'Neal and Wade came to challenge.

The Miami Heat made a big bet during the offseason of this season, which caused a lot of trouble and changed the competitive pattern of the Eastern and Western theaters.

The Heat took out half of their belongings and traded with the Lakers with second-in-command Lamar Odom, superstar Caron Butler, veteran Brian Granger, and a first-round pick. After the signing, the "Shark" O'Neill was recruited.

This is quite a classic "Shark Journey East" incident. The Heat team, which got a super center, completed the reconstruction in an instant, and has the strength to compete for the NBA championship.

This time the big gamble showed good results. After a short period of running-in, the Heat began to kill the Quartet. At present, they have achieved a good record of 27 wins and 9 losses, ranking No. 1 in the Eastern Theater, which means they are ranked in the league. It is also ranked No.4.

Just behind the Suns, Sonics and Spurs.

This game is full of highlights. The matchup between the top players in the Xidong record is as eye-catching as sparks hitting the earth.

However, before the game, media reporters were more optimistic about the final victory of the Phoenix Suns. Although the Miami Heat's record is good, there is still a lot of water.

Similar to the Suns, the Heat can win against weak teams, and even won 14 consecutive victories at one point, which is stronger than the Suns' 12 consecutive victories.

However, in the strong dialogue, the Miami Heat lost almost all of them. The nine opponents who lost were the Spurs, Pistons, Mavericks, Timberwolves, two negative Sonics, Kings, and Nuggets.

Therefore, the Suns have a great home court advantage and are very optimistic.

Of course, this Heat team is not easy to chew. Their competitive state is very good. They once won 14 consecutive victories, during which they lost to the Sonics twice.

Therefore, for more than a month, the Heat have only lost one opponent, and they are naturally in a good state.

Just looking at the starting lineup of the Heat, the strength is not much different from that of the Suns, and each has its own advantages.

The Heat's point guard is Dwyane Wade, the No. 03 pick of the 5 Platinum Generation. He has a tough style of play, extremely fast speed, sharp breakthroughs, full impact, and both offense and defense.

As a shooting guard, his offensive ability is naturally not weak. At present, he can average 25.5 points, 7.3 assists and 6.9 rebounds per game, showing his superstar potential.

Putting him in the No. 1 position is to use his strong physique to take advantage of his opponent. It can be said that Jordan, who is 5cm short, is strong.

The shooting guard is a bit weak, and Damon Jones is appointed by Damon Jones. He is an undrafted pick, with a height of 191cm, good defensive strength, and a precise three-pointer. He is a high-quality "3D" player and can make up for Wade. The shortcoming of unstable three-pointers opens up the offensive space.

At present, he can average 12.4 points and 4.8 assists per game, and he is in a very good state.

The small forward position is held by Eddie Jones. He is 198cm tall and weighs 86kg. He was the No. 94 pick in the first round of the 10th generation. "The player is still a "3D" at various levels.

Still retains top-level defensive ability. Although the offense with the ball has decreased, he has honed a good mid-range shooting ability and developed a three-pointer.

Now he can still contribute 13.2 points and 5.1 rebounds per game, which is considered immortal.

Udonis Haslem played in the frontcourt. He was an undrafted player in 2002. He was a player from the Summer League. He is 203cm tall, but he played inside.

Has top-level power confrontation, good defensive ability, tough style of play, and a reliable mid-range shooting ability.

At present, he can score 11.2 points and 9.5 rebounds per game. Although the data is not obvious, he is a player with important tactical status.

The center is played by Shaquille O'Neal. His strength has not declined much. With the weight loss, he can still average 23.7 points and 11.2 rebounds per game.

The only thing to worry about is his free throws and physical fitness. As for combat power, he is still the strongest center forward.

At 2005:1 p.m. on January 11, 9, at the American West Arena, the Phoenix Suns will play against the Miami Fever.

After a simple layup and shooting warm-up, the starting lineups of both sides lined up and came to the middle circle of the basketball court collectively. The game began with a scrimmage.

The Suns ranked the starting five tigers unchanged, lined up, followed by point guard Steve Nash, shooting guard Joe Johnson, small forward Quentin Richardson, power forward Sean Marion, center A Marley Stoudemire.

beep! !

With the sound of the whistle from the referee's mouth, the basketball in his hand was thrown high into the sky, and the game officially began.

O'Neal VS Stoudemire! !

The two took off almost at the same time. Stoudemire was very active in jumping the ball. From his point of view, O'Neal in front of him couldn't jump at all. Chance to beat your opponent.

Although O'Neal is too fat to jump, he has a height of 216cm and a good bullet speed. He accidentally dialed the basketball and won the ball for the Heat.

With long legs, Wade dribbled forward quickly, wanting to play a fast break, and caught the Suns by surprise.

Wade's advancement is very fast, the Suns are also very mobile, and the defense is also quite fast.

Although there was no opportunity for a sneak attack, Wade still did not slow down, and immediately broke through from the center with the ball. Nash took the initiative to step forward to mark, moved sideways, and blocked Wade's advancing direction with his body.

Wade stepped down to dribble, slapped the basketball from the right side to the left side, pulled the ball up, stepped on the lost track, passed Nash in an instant, and went inside. Marion rushed to defend, but was also passed directly, one step Passed one person, jumped up from the basket, dodged Stoudemire's defense in the air, stretched and stretched, drifted from the left to the right, hooked with the right hand, the basketball spun and flew to the basket, as if it had eyes , After wiping, he deftly got into the basket.

2 to 0! !
Wade retreated alone, forcibly using his personal ability to score the basketball, and then fell to the ground. Seeing the basketball safely pocketed, he quickly got up again and accelerated back to defend.

Scored a magnificent goal in the opening game, Wade is still so desperate!

Outside the field, the fans and spectators applauded vigorously, like rain hitting plantains, and they fell one after another.

Although they are opponents, there are still some warm things in the arena that can inspire people.

On the commentary stage, Barkley nodded and praised: "Wade's extraordinary is like lightning, and his physical talent is too strong. The Suns' defensive players have not recovered before they are overwhelmed in an instant. This rookie has Strong strength, but also so hard work, it is very difficult not to succeed."

Kenny Smith, the partner next to him, added with a smile: "In addition to the amazing speed of Wade's dribble, the timing and space of the dribble are also just right. The combination of that speed and the Eurostep seems to have something of its own. , There is a taste of an extraordinary master!

I have to say that Wade has a great skill, how will the Suns respond next?Will Nash respond?

On the court, Marion made a quick shot from the baseline, and Nash received the ball very quickly. Wade was very experienced and knew how to use pressure to slow Nash down. Oh!No!Nash didn't let Wade's defense succeed, and with a bang, he was so skilled and bold that he directly made a back pass.

Joe Johnson didn't hesitate either. After responding to Nash, he directly passed the basketball to the inside. Oh, this is too fast!Stoudemire broke out in the middle and received the basketball. What method will he use to end the offense?There is nothing to defend the players in front of you!

Damn it!O'Neill has just left the middle circle, so he really should wait for me!
Stoudemire took a step, and took off directly under the basket, with a loud bang!It's not a tomahawk split button!Stoudemire slams the basketball into the rim in the air!
So exciting!How many seconds did the Suns take for this wave of offense?The battle was resolved in a flash! !
Just at the beginning, the match between the Suns and the Heat was simply a fast and furious movie drama!Really wonderful! ! "
