In the rest area, Heat coach Stan Van Gundy was encouraging his players. "Guys, our chance is here. They are already showing signs of fatigue. Look at their pace. They can't move as fast as in the first half. We have to take them down in one go!" Heat players were drinking drinks and listening to their coach's chatter. They also felt that the opponent's defensive intensity had obviously decreased, far less than in the first half. This was the best chance. "Gentlemen, I think our chance is here. With a 3-1 lead in this game, we are expected to lock in the finals before the weekend. Think about the championship rings and the damn championship glory. Let's kill them!" Veteran Eddie Jones also encouraged his teammates. The Heat were in high spirits. Except for O'Neal himself, for most of these people, this might be the only chance to get close to the finals in their lifetime. The same is true for the Nets. If they lose this game, the consequence is likely to be that they will be eliminated by the opponent in one go. A whole year's efforts will be wasted. The Nets players took several big gulps of drinks.
Without Carter in the rotation, everyone's time on the court has increased.
The high-intensity rotation defense consumes a lot of physical energy.
They are all drinking to restore the lost water and energy.
Take advantage of the short break between sections to adjust their breath.
Coach Frank is also encouraging the players.
"Guys, you did a great job. The real competition has just begun. We have a good chance to win this game. We can't afford to lose this game. We must bring the victory back to New Jersey."
It's the last quarter, the real decisive battle is here.
This quarter is more The game can largely determine the direction of the entire series.
Win or lose depends on the last 12 minutes.
At the referee's whistle, the players stood up and walked to the court.
The Heat had the ball and relied on O'Neal and Wade to close the score in the third quarter.
After the opening, the Heat still played a tactic around them.
Wade held the ball and found a comfortable passing point under the basket for O'Neal to pass the ball.
Kidd of the Nets double-teamed O'Neal the moment Wade passed the ball.
O'Neal passed the ball to Damon Jones, Kidd's defender in the bottom corner.
Damon Jones took the ball but did not attack directly. Instead, after Kidd approached him,
he passed the ball to O'Neal again.
O'Neal had already pulled a safe distance from Kidd.
Without Kidd's interference, O'Neal could concentrate on singles against Roy behind him.
The two began to compete at the beginning of the fourth quarter.
After resting, the Shark, who had recovered a lot of physical strength, turned around very quickly.
He forced Roy away with almost crushing force.
Then he jumped up and dunked towards the basket of the Nets.
Roy could not defend O'Neal, but he did not want to sit and wait for death.
At the moment when O'Neal jumped, Roy also jumped up.
With his more outstanding explosive power, he still interfered with O'Neal in mid-air.
Unfortunately, he missed the ball by a little bit.
The basketball still hit the basket and bounced out under Roy's strong interference.
O'Neal's body size was there. Even if Roy could defend the first time,
The space he occupied could still ensure that he could control the rebounding ball.
After grabbing the ball with both hands, he took a step and stood up again.
This time Roy had no choice. The Shark's two-handed dunk kicked off the fourth quarter.
O'Neal dunked, and returned to defense with his signature "Bawang step" and a proud expression.
McInnis quickly served the ball from the baseline.
Kidd crossed the half court under the cover of Lagaber.
On the three-point line, Roy pulled up to provide cover for Kidd.
The Heat decisively chose to change defense, and Kidd passed the ball to Roy in time.
Big against small, Roy faced Wade's defense.
At the top of the arc, Roy held the ball, and Wade was ready.
After Roy's tentative step, he started the breakthrough.
He took two steps forward, then stepped back and made a jump shot in front of Wade.
No matter how explosive the Flash was, the height difference between the two was there, and he could only watch Roy shoot the ball over his head.
"Shua"
Roy's shooting touch in this game can only be described as unsolvable.
Wade's mentality was very good, as this kind of ball was not something he could get.
At this time, Roy had contributed 32 points in this game, and was only eight points away from the 40+ in the previous game.
The Heat quickly served the ball, and Wade broke through at high speed after receiving the ball.
He jumped towards the Nets' half court, trying to catch the Nets off guard.
First, he passed Lagabell, and thenLater, he squeezed Jefferson out of the way in the confrontation.
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the basket, McGinnis immediately stood outside the reasonable collision zone,
prepared to meet Wade's final attack,
Wade made a long pass, and Damon Jones, who was lying in ambush at a 45-degree angle, made a three-pointer,
hit the three-pointer!
83 to 90, the Heat narrowed the score to single digits,
"Raga, concentrate, you have to keep an eye on Wade all the time, the game is not over, even if he moves his eyelashes, you have to be alert!"
Coach Frank shouted at Ragabel at the top of his voice,
This kind of offense and defense transition is the most demoralizing,
It's obvious that after all the hard work to make a shot, you turn around and give the opponent a three-pointer because of your teammates' lack of concentration,
No one can stand this.
In the next round, Kidd took the ball and broke through and passed it to Jefferson who was unguarded on the outside.
Jefferson dribbled the ball and shot a jump shot, which was just a hair's breadth away.
O'Neal helped Haslem get the rebound in the chaos inside.
As soon as he got the ball, Haslem found Wade who was signaling him outside the three-point line in the crowd.
But he didn't dare to pass it. In a position that Wade didn't see, Kidd was lurking like a ghost not far away.
Haslem dribbled two steps himself and passed it to Damon Jones who was closest to him.
Wade looked confused and complained to Haslem directly:
"Udonis, why didn't you pass the ball with such a good opportunity? I could have dunked on their heads!"
Haslem pointed at Kidd who was not far from Wade.
"Man, didn't you notice that guy was less than 1 meter away from you?"
Wade turned his head and Kidd looked at him with a smile, which scared him.
After the Heat passed half court, Wade took the ball and waited for O'Neal to get into position.
There was only a 7-point difference that needed to be played successfully.
And O'Neal was the most stable player in the Heat. Even if Roy tried his best,
The Shark's hit rate was still as high as 55%.
Wade passed the ball to the Shark at a 45-degree angle.
The Nets still double-teamed him. Jefferson even gave up Butler on defense.
The team surrounded O'Neal.
The Shark was double-teamed by two people and used all his strength. He opened a gap,
He found Butler who was lying in ambush in the bottom corner,
Another three-pointer, Jefferson was completely out of position,
"Ding"
It was an open ball, but Butler missed it inexplicably,
"Rebound!"
The rebound that was within reach of McGinnis's head was stolen by Haslem behind him,
Haslem then grabbed the rebound and shot under the basket before Roy returned to defense,
The basketball hit the backboard and went into the basket
85 to 90!
This ball was extremely crucial!
