The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 533 [Expedition to Miami]

The Heat have too few insiders who can resist people. Except for Dalembert, there is only "chubby" Pittman.When the Heat selected Pittman in the first round, they were quite optimistic and gave him a lot of opportunities, but Pittman was really incompetent, unable to adapt to the rhythm of the game, and has long been reduced to a marginal player.

In this game, the Gasol brothers finally played like an All-Star, but the Heat's insiders are not good at low-post attacks, so they can only pull to the outside to shoot.Bosh so, Parsons even more so.

Ye Feng received a pass from Gasol at 3 minutes and 43 seconds, hit a three-pointer from the outside, and scored his 45th point of the game.He also has a chance to hit 50+. If he succeeds, the number of 50+ games will reach 5 games, surpassing Chamberlain to rank second in history, and only Jordan is left in front of him.

The Clippers lead by 19 points, the Heat have replaced the full bench, and the game has entered garbage time.At this time, Ye Feng stayed on the court to collect statistics, easily irritating the opponent, and there was nowhere to cry if he was maliciously fouled by the opponent's substitute.Weighing the pros and cons, the Clippers also sent a substitute lineup.

Barkley said: "Ye Feng has really reached his peak this season. He relies on teamwork and knows how to maintain a super high offensive efficiency with the help of his teammates. Ye Feng's career shooting percentage is above 50%. The last one can do this. A little bit, it depends on me before I retire..."

Kenny Smith smiled and said, "Are you trying to say that your own strength is the best?"

Barkley wouldn't say that, but he was really strong back then, won the regular season MVP, and had two rebounding titles.To say that the biggest gap between him and Jordan is not technology or statistics, but that the league has not praised Barkley, a guy who often enters the police station.Some people may say that Barkley is far worse than Jordan. For example, he has also partnered with Pippen, and he has Olajuwon by his side, but he has not won a championship.At that time, Barkley's condition seriously declined due to injury, Olajuwon was also old, and Pippen became a guy who only wanted to make money and needed to be beaten, which could not be used as a basis at all.

The Clippers defeated the Heat 121 to 104, chasing the total score to 1 to 1.

Ye Feng once again posted terrifying statistics, 45 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks. His ball possession rate was very high, but he only made one turnover.In addition, Harrison Barnes, the Gasol brothers and Thornton also scored in double figures.

热火得分最多的人是詹姆斯，35分12篮板8助攻；波什19分10篮板；韦德表现不佳，只得到了15分5助攻，雷阿伦只得了8分，外线哑火。

Both games had a large point difference, but the winning teams were different. This happened because the Clippers not only had good players, but also Thibodeau, a flexible head coach, who would arrange tactics for the opponent's weaknesses , the same hand of cards, playing different results.

After the game, Thibodeau highly praised the Gasol brothers. It was they who attracted the defense in the low post and created more opportunities for Ye Feng to score easily.Ye Feng cuts to the basket, and the Gasol brothers can also pass the ball to him in a timely manner. This kind of coping ability is not possessed by many centers.

Spoelstra said on the court that he had found a way to deal with the Clippers. This time Thibodeau returned the color. In an interview, he also said that he found the weakness of the Heat, and said that it is not so easy to beat the Clippers to win the championship by monopolizing stars. , unabashedly expressed sarcasm.

After the Heat introduced Ray Allen and Lewis this season, people's evaluation of their lineup is no longer "good", but "perverted".When the Celtics Big Three teamed up, they didn't have such a good helper. The Heat are indeed a team that relies on money to build a championship.

People thought that the Heat might sweep the Clippers before, but now the Heat seem to be no longer their opponents.If you want to pull down the defending champion, you need to continue to work hard.

The third game between the two sides will be held in Miami on June 6.

Ariel will not be traveling to Miami with the team.The child has inspired her motherhood, and her enthusiasm for basketball is not as good as before. If she is separated from the child for a week, she will feel very uncomfortable, and she has to watch from the side to feel at ease.Ye Feng also agreed with Ariel to stay. For him, the championship is very important, but for Ariel, family and children are more important now.

After two days of rest, the Clippers flew to Miami by special plane.

On the plane, the players chatted around basketball. Harrison Barnes was like Matt Barnes teaching defensive skills, hoping to better deal with Wade in the game.His performance in the playoffs was not as good as in the regular season, and he is eager to get out of this vicious circle and become an indispensable member of the team.

Harrison wanted to work hard for his first championship in his career, and he didn't want to drag Ye Feng back. The significance of 4 consecutive championships is no small matter. The players are very excited when they think that they are one of them.

This finals is even more critical for Ye Feng. If the Clippers introduce big-name players next season, plus the Gasol brothers and Love, the team will be almost impeccable.Now people say that the Clippers are single-core, and Love's injury has raised people's evaluation of Ye Feng. As long as he wins the championship, the time for him to surpass Jordan will officially come.

Ye Feng is only one step away from being a legend, and James is still working hard for his first championship.

James, Wade, and Bosh are very clear that if they don't win the championship, they may have to break up.The owner of the Heat has limited patience. He pays the luxury tax every year but cannot win a championship. Who can bear it?It is said that James and Wade are not suitable, and the weakness of the inside line was once again shown in the last game. Even Riley couldn't keep the three of them from joining forces.Even Riley wondered if it was right to put Wade and James on the same team.Maybe a good inside player is traded, like the combination of O'Neal and Wade won the championship back then, and the idea of ​​combining inside and outside is king.It may not be true that those who win the inside win the world, but if the inside is not good, the championship must be out of the question.

Wade has long been unintentionally entangled with James about who is the boss and who is the second master.When playing basketball, you must always put your record first. If you can't win the ball, no matter how beautiful the statistics are, no matter how gorgeous the style of play is, it is useless.

The mood of Miami fans in the finals is still not high.Maybe it was the loss to the Nets in the Eastern Conference finals last season that gave them too much excitement. The fans are not very concerned about the performance of the Heat, and there is no atmosphere of a big game at all.James and Wade expressed the hope that the fans would be more enthusiastic and support the home team more than once, but unfortunately not many people listened to them.Thoughts are difficult to control unless brainwashing begins in elementary school or kindergarten.

The Heat's home atmosphere is good for the Clippers.Resting at the hotel, getting familiar with the venue, and adapting to training are all proceeding in an orderly manner.

Ye Feng got a lot of applause when the players came out at night.Even in Miami, there are many Ye Feng fans.In this he is similar to Michael Jordan.Back then, the whole world was Jordan's fans, and it was the same for Ye Feng.

James looked at Ye Feng with a calm expression.He didn't speak, but Ye Feng knew that James' desire to win was very strong, and he would definitely go all out in this game.Now that James is mature, he no longer puts on magnesium powder for show.The calmer you are, the more energy you can use on the court to fight back against your opponent.

The Clippers' starting lineup is the same as in Game [-], Marc Gasol, Ye Feng, Barnes, Harrison, Thomas.

The Heat adjusted the lineup, Rashard Lewis entered the starting lineup, Dalembert came off the bench, and Bosh topped the center position.In this way, the Heat added a stable outside shooting point.Lewis played limited playing time this season, averaging only 5.4 points per game, but his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 45.3%.James played at the 4th position, mainly defending Ye Feng.Lewis against Barnes will not be a defensive hole.With Dalembert off the bench, the second unit has a big man who can stand up to Pau Gasol.

The Heat must adjust. They have a lot of inside players, but not many capable people.When playing the Nets, you can use the "shark-cutting tactic", and marginal players can come in handy.The Clippers are good at shooting inside. If a foul is a suicide tactic, marginal players can only sit off the court.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins.Bosh beat Gasol with a jump ball, and the Heat went first.

James pulled to the top of the arc to catch the ball, and Ye Feng was the main defense.Bosch pulled to the outside screen.James dribbled the ball laterally to get rid of Ye Feng, attracted Gasol's defense and then passed the ball to Bosh. Ye Feng retreated quickly and blocked Bosh's breakthrough route.

Bosh passed the ball again, James relied on speed to get rid of Gasol, and Barnes switched defenses.Ye Feng ran towards Wade, switching positions quickly.

Relying on his physical advantage, James squeezed Barnes into the three-point line, turned around on the left side and made a jumper with a fallback. His posture was extremely ugly.But he's got a really good shot, going into the net. 0 to 2.

The Clippers attacked, and Thomas took it to the frontcourt and handed it to Ye Feng.Ye Feng took the ball and turned to face the frame, Barnes blocked James with a screen.Ye Feng broke through from the left and Lewis switched defenses.Barnes was not strong enough and could easily be bypassed, but Ye Feng made a shot before James came up to double-team. He made a one-step jumper from inside the three-point line, ignoring Lewis in front of him.

Lewis took off half a beat slower, missed the cover, and the ball was also hollow into the net. 2 to 2.In comparison, Ye Feng's shooting movements are much more beautiful.

Ye Feng's mood this time in the finals is completely different from the last time he faced the Heat. In 2011, he had no idea and felt that he had to prove himself by defeating James.He didn't feel like he was the best at the time, even though he had won the MVP.

Now he feels that he is at the peak, condescending, and accepting the challenge of James.

The Heat still handed over the offensive ball to James, and Ye Feng followed closely, never leaving.If two people of the same level have physical contact, the referee probably won't blow it. Ye Feng has already seen this clearly in the first two games, so he made a lot of defensive moves.

The comprehension of the game is not only about cooperating with teammates and implementing coaching tactics, but also analyzing the whole situation. Ye Feng has already reached this level. He doesn't even know the position of the referee's station and when he makes small moves without being called a foul. I know what I know.

James couldn't turn around, so he had to pass the ball...
