The glory of the center

Chapter 122 It's impossible to make a big difference

"Hot! Heat!" The shouts of the American Airlines Center in Miami continued. From the beginning of the game, the two teams played extremely stale, and the score difference had not been opened. In the third quarter, they had played for eight minutes, and the score was 64:66, only two points difference.

The Heat launched an attack. Chalmers dribbled the ball through the half and handed it to Bosh on the free throw line. Wade took it out of the right three-point line and turned directly to the basket. While rushing past Bosh, Wade also held the ball in his hand.

Carter did suffer some losses against Wade in his footsteps, especially when he was blocked by Bosh. At this moment, he can only follow Wade.

Zhao Yue spent most of his time on the inside line in this game. The task of defending Bosh is more often entrusted to Fry to deal with the impact of James and Wade. Zhao Yue is more deterrent than Fry on the inside line. Seeing Wade rushing towards the inside line, Zhao Yue immediately moved forward to stop him.

He was no stranger to Zhao Yue's defense and Wade. He directly held himself in the air. Wade did not expose the ball at all and drilled straight into Zhao Yue.

"Di!" Zhao Yue had tried his best to control his movements, but he was still fouled by Wade, and the referee's whistle also sounded at this time.

Elvin Gentry looked at the time and said to Gotat, "Masin, go on the court and replace Zhao."

Zhao Yue only fouled three times at this time, but there were only less than four minutes left in the third quarter. Gentry also took the opportunity to replace Zhao Yue for a rest.

After Zhao Yue left the court, Anthony also sat off the court, led by Nash, who had a two-minute break in the middle of the third quarter. Gentry knows that it will be a bitter battle against the Heat, and he must ensure that Zhao Yue and Anthony still have enough physical energy to help the team at the critical moment of the fourth quarter.

Spolstra at the other end obviously had the same mind. Just a minute later, he replaced James and Bosh and let Wade lead the team alone.

There are only 20 seconds left in the third quarter before the blink of an eye. The Heat has the right to attack. Wade dribbles the ball on the court, and he has to spend as much time as possible.

The attack time was only 6 seconds. Wade suddenly rushed to the basket before starting. Shannon Brown in front of him retreated quickly, but Wade approached faster. The Sun's defense began to shrink, ready to stop Wade's attack. With only 3 seconds left, Wade was about to rush into the three-second zone, but the ball in his hand suddenly pushed out and went to the bottom corner.

Shaun Battier, the most important signing of the Heat this season, has a big heart. The attack time is only 2 seconds when he receives the ball. Battier made a quick jump shot in the bottom corner and hit a three-pointer.

Goutat from the bottom line quickly handed the ball into Nash's hands, leaving only the last 2 seconds left in the third quarter. It was Battier again. As soon as Nash received the ball, Battier had already pasted it. Nash, who was going to take a direct shot, had to move the ball to the side and push the ball out.

"There's no time. Steve's action is too late. Sean did a good job." At the commentary table, Jeff Van Gundy praised that he obviously appreciated the old player's basketball IQ.

"Dou!" With the end of the third quarter, the atmosphere at the scene seemed to be much easier. The Heat fans were extremely happy. With Battier hitting a three-pointer and stopping Nash's attack, the difference between the two teams stayed at 70:76 after the third quarter, leading by 6 points.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhao Yue, who had rested for three minutes, and Anthony, who had rested for five minutes, returned to the field, and Nash returned to rest off the court.

The Heat at the other end also replaced the main force, and Wade was replaced by the rest, while the two giants James and Bosh were replaced, with Haslem, Sean Battier and Chalmers.

In addition to Zhao Yue and Anthony, the Suns also sent another player, Aaron Iverson, as well as two important substitutes for the team, Yi Jianlian and Grant Hill.

The Suns took the lead in launching the attack. Iverson dribbled the ball to half and handed it over to Zhao Yue. At the bottom line, Zhao Yue returned the ball to Iverson after being clamped. At this moment, Ansen suddenly went out on the three-point line, and Chalmers in front of him had no defensive action at all. Unfortunately, the ball was slightly less lucky, and the ball fell out after turning around the basket.

Bosh grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and handed it directly to James, who pushed forward with the ball. After James dribbling to the outside of the three-point line, Bosh directly picked up the block. James dribbled the ball directly into the three-point line. Anthony beside him and retreated from Bosh to prepare for James's breakthrough, but James did not break through and rushed to the basket. James only rushed into the three-point line and stopped the jump shot. He shot and hit two points.

The cheers at the scene once again became high. With James's success of this attack, the difference between the two teams has narrowed to 8 points. On the sidelines, Spolstra has stood up from his seat. He knows that this is a rare opportunity for the Heat. If they can take the opportunity to widen the gap to 10 points, they will establish a real advantage.

The Suns launched an attack, and Iverson dribbled the ball to Zhao Yue again. At this time, Zhao Yue did not fall to a low position, but stood on the right side of the free throw line.

Zhao Yue held the ball in the basket and pulled it so much that the Heat was not easy to wrap it, but several players of the Heat moved slightly to this side, ready to attack in time when Zhao Yue attacked.

Zhao Yue took the ball and maintained an arm's defensive distance. He did not dare to get too close. Zhao Yue's first step was too fast. If there was no buffer distance, it would be difficult for him to keep up with Zhao Yue's footsteps. At the same time, he did not dare to leave too far. One month after the start of the new season, Zhao Yue's shooting ability was very good. It is no secret that progress is in the league. He dares not give Zhao Yue a chance to take action directly.

After receiving the ball, he slightly adjusted the rhythm. Zhao Yue suddenly lifted the ball to shoot. He didn't care whether Bosh was affected by his fake shooting action at this time and smashed the ball to the floor, and he rushed forward to the right quickly.

"bu!" Zhao Yue rushed forward, and a resistance came from the front. Bosh was not too affected by Zhao Yue's shooting fake action. When Zhao Yue rushed forward, he also moved his footsteps in time to stop Zhao Yue's forward route.

There was resistance in front of him, but Zhao Yue still rushed forward with the ball, and Bosh's strength was not enough to stop him.

Zhao Yue is getting closer and closer to the three-second zone, and the heat's defense line is also tightening to this side, and James has come to the side to attack.

As long as Zhao Yue continued to rush forward, he would fall into Bosh and James's bag. At this time, Wang Cheng's body suddenly rotated to the right, distanced himself from Bosh and dodged to James, and the ball was also held in his hand.

Jump! Zhao Yue, who completed the whole turn-around, jumped up with a slight back, holding the ball with his right hand and preparing to shoot.

In front of Zhao Yue, James was busy jumping up and interfering, raising his hand to lean on Zhao Yue's face. Although James wanted to end Zhaoye's attack with a block, he also knew that it was not easy for Zhao Yue's shooting to block even if he didn't lean back, not to mention that Zhao Yue also added a back at this time.

Zhao Yue moved extremely in the air and was not affected by James. He threw the ball steadily at his own pace.

"Wo!" The ball passed directly through the net and hit the hollow.

Zhao Yue's goal weakened the original high shouts at the scene, and the score difference they expected to be 10 points. It was difficult for the Heat to achieve at least one round in the next round.

James held the ball again. He just hit the ball in the previous round, and Wang Cheng quickly fought back, so James did not seem to have the intention of giving the ball to others at this time. After dridging the ball outside the three-point line, he motioned Bosh to block it, and James rushed into the three-point line again with the ball.

Anthony's defense was better than just now. Yi Jianlian took the lead in disturbing James. Anthony, who seized the opportunity, quickly bypassed Bosh's side and stopped James in time.

Realizing that it was difficult to get rid of Anthony even if it was a sudden stop jump shot at this time, James dribbled the ball directly on Anthony. The strong body is still James's offensive weapon. The impactful body directly pushed Anthony's body a step back and seized this opportunity for James to stop and shoot again.

James's goal rekindled the hope of the Heat fans, and there was a violent boo immediately after Iverson dribbled the ball to half-court.

Such boos obviously did not affect Iverson. Yi Jianlian blocked and dismantled, and Iverson dribbled the ball and began to break through. While Iverson broke through, Zhao Yue, Anthony and Hill began to run, among which Zhao Yue undoubtedly attracted more defensive attention. After all, he was more lethal than anyone else on the inside line.

He rushed forward and threw the ball out, but Iverson did not pass the ball to Zhao Yue's hand, but threw the ball to Hill on the outside line.

Hill received the ball, and the Heat's defense line was also in chaos at this moment. Hill, as an important substitute for the Suns, is naturally a person who has studied the Heat. After seeing him catch the ball outside the three-point line, the Heat player immediately jumped on it.

Hill was not greedy for his work. The ball pushed out quickly and passed it to Anthony's hand.

"Cameron pushed the ball into the air. He wanted to pass it to Zhao..."

Anthony, who received the ball, also did not take action. He pushed the ball out of the three-point line, and he sent the ball directly to the inner mid-air. The ball flew very high, but no one would worry that it was a mistake. Everyone knew Zhao Yue's bouncing ability very well.

Jumping on the left side of the basket, Zhao Yue reached out and grabbed the basketball in the air directly, then hit it heavily and pressed it directly to the basket. Although Bosh had also rushed to his side, he just looked up and gave up the interference directly, because he knew that he could not stop Zhao Yue's dunk.

"Bum!" Although it was only one hand, the basket still made a loud noise. The loud noise made the hot atmosphere at the scene stagnate again, and all the Heat fans looked at Zhao Yue with unpleasant eyes, the person who destroyed their good deeds.
