You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 219 This Is Why You Must Persevere

Christmas Eve

The basic background that makes the Lakers and the Heat play gunpowder is as follows:

The morning before the start of the game, the sun was shining brightly. Miami is indeed the city with the largest traffic in the United States. Like California, there is no snow all year round.

The Sharks are in a very happy mood, because he has a team that can compete for the championship, and the Lakers, led by Kobe, couldn't even make the playoffs last season.Although this season has improved, Kobe's performance is also good, and he still has a Mavericks team?So what, does a win against the Mavericks prove anything?What's the deal with that softie Nowitzki?
As long as he wins, his big mouth will not stop firing: "Listen, I don't care how many points someone gets. The only thing I care about is victory. One person can't win. Michael Jordan also needs Scottie Pippen. Unfortunately, some people don't quite understand this truth."

It is understandable for the Sharks to shoot, after all, some old accounts between him and Kobe have not yet been settled.

Wade got involved.

"I think Shaq has a point. Selfish individuals can't win."

He went on to say, "I'm not alluding to anyone."

Anyone who is familiar with Wade knows that he often does this kind of thing like taking off his pants and farting, and when he is done, he has an innocent look of "I'm sorry I'm not going to kill you".

Provocation from the away game, Bryant chose to remain silent.

He's already used to this, but not speaking doesn't mean he's indifferent.

After the game started, his performance proved that he didn't care, he just pretended well.

Weixia, who continues to serve as the starter, also faces challenges. Wade is one of the best combo guards in the league today. The combination of him and Jason Williams provides O'Neal with a comfortable environment.

Facing his former subordinates, Jackson didn't seem to understand the situation clearly, and even counted on Chris Mim and Brian Cook to resist the shark's offensive.

"I don't know why Phil didn't let Andrew Bynum try. Although he is still young, his physical condition and talent are the best in the Lakers. Chris and Brian will only let the Sharks relive the peak of the past."

Mihm is now a mediocre starting center, and the defense against the old sharks is much worse.

Cook was the Sharks' backup back then, and sometimes he couldn't even play for a few minutes. Since he could shoot three-pointers, he would also play the [-]th position. Seeing that the Lakers now use these two as the main force and the main rotation, the Sharks couldn't stop.

The shark happily stabbed the two of them, crushing them to the extreme depths with various violent buckles.

In the first quarter, the Heat 24 to 14.

The Lakers played like the Mavericks on the night of the 20th. The boss is superior, the others are suppressed, the inside is dominated by the Sharks, and the shooting touch is as bad as it is.

Wei Xia, who has little possession of the ball, completed his mission on the defensive end.

He allowed White Chocolate to send out only three assists in the first 5 minutes of the first quarter, and those three assists, to be honest, even if the fans on the sidelines came, they might not be able to do it.

Isn't it just throwing the ball to the shark?What is the technical difficulty?
White Chocolate is not without offensive ability or desire, he is too deadly seen by Wei Xia.Under the Heat's tactical system, the requirements for him are like Derek Fisher in the OK period. The role of positional warfare is only a passer and a fixed-point three-pointer that pulls space.

Wei Xia defended White Chocolate with the attitude and strength of defending the opponent's trump card, and successfully blocked him.

There are two reasons why the Lakers’ game was not going well. Kobe’s offense was limited. Although Wade’s body is not as good, his defensive performance is not bad at all. He is strong in single defense, dares to fight, and can force the ball. In addition, Kobe’s three-pointer is not good. The inside is covered by sharks. .

Odom can only pull one guy out to the perimeter, and it's impossible for the Sharks to follow him out.

Various pressures and checks and balances made the Lakers trail the Heat by 10 points in a single quarter.

Wei Xia, who played a full quarter, continued to play.

In the days when Jackson discovered that Smush Parker left, the Lakers' reliance on Weisha increased day by day.

He can play the No. [-] position, the No. [-] position, and the No. [-] position as a guest. He can do all kinds of dirty words and hard work. He also has a silently glowing firefly spirit. He does not steal the limelight and attention at all.

"Where the heck did that jerk Jim Bass dig this guy up?" Jackson didn't care about the NCAA.

Tex Winter reminded: "I heard that when Wish was at Nova, he played all the time."

When Bryant was off the court, Jackson sent Weisha in front of Wade.

That's what Vesha needs.

Wade was one of the first perimeter players to reap the benefits of the wide-open offensive era.He was born here, and he was destroyed here.Wade is obviously not as proficient at drawing fouls as his juniors in the 10s.Although he has done many unmanly things, he has fully learned the concepts and guiding ideology of the older generation when it comes to fouls, throwing himself out first to see if the opponent can kill him.Do not die?OK, so there is room for manipulation here.

Throwing his body out countless times and being able to find the basket is indeed a rare skill throughout the ages. In the era when the Pistons bad boys and the New York gangsters disappeared, Wade didn't have to worry about his own safety, but the floor of the arena was fair and just to everyone who challenged it.

Those of us who have seen some players who make superficial contact but get a lot of free throws in the future should know that Wade's foul like that is unnecessary.

For the first time, Wei Xia encountered an outside player with perfect speed, explosive power, and the continuity of changing directions without slowing down.

As if he was seeing Kobe for the first time, he was so abused that Kobe got up and proposed to Jackson to play against Wade.

Wei Xia was extremely embarrassed.

Wade was a type he had never seen before.

The Lakers have no similar players, and in the dozens of games they have played before, they also have no similar opponents.

As for the game in the old days, the league with only nine teams, currently he only has Oscar Robertson's Royals, Chamberlain's 76ers and Jerry West and Elgin Baylor's Lakers.

According to Weixia's impression of them, none of them are Wade-type players.

Therefore, there is no one for Wei Xia to learn from. It is not surprising that he was beaten like a rout when he met such a crazy Wade.

At most times, the Heat led the Lakers by 15 points.

Jackson sat like a mountain, and Kobe watched anxiously.

Suddenly, Kobe jumped up again and wanted to call for a fight. Winter said to him: "What the hell are you doing now? Continue to miss shots and get hit back?"

Winter may be the only player and coach on the Lakers who still scares Kobe.

"Can"

"Shut up! The most fucking thing you should do now is sit down!" Winter said roughly, "Don't think you know the game better than the coaching staff!"

Wade once again passed Wei Xia with a gorgeous change of direction, but this time, he did not completely get rid of it.

Wei Xia turned around, accelerated, and started to explode, not inferior to Wade in the slightest.His straight-line speed can't match Wade's, and he can't match his absolute speed, but the space on the battlefield can't allow Wade to use his physical talent to the extreme.

Wade, who successfully defeated Weixia's defense in a row, still has full confidence in the current situation.

Therefore, he couldn't imagine Wei Xia catching up with him, blocking him, and setting off a counterattack.

"boom!"

Wei Xia hit Wade's layup to the backboard, how much energy he used to chase Wade, how much energy he spent to make a successful defense, he will spend more, stronger, and more ferocious strength to counterattack.

"What a lunatic who can't run to death." Sprewell cursed in surprise.

Wei Xia's style of play reminded him of his young self, and he was the same back then, but he was not sure whether he had the full vitality and desire at Wei Xia's age.

Wei Xia's counterattack ended with a dunk full of strength.

When he walked in front of Wade, he mouthed a clear trash talk: "It's easy."

He is not Wade's opponent. In terms of combat power, one-on-one, five-on-five, he is not as good as Wade.

Lack of strength will never be a reason for him to give up. There is only one way for him to stop resisting and counterattacking: the end of the game.

It is very uncomfortable to be challenged by an opponent who is not as strong as himself. Wade thought he could easily end Wei Xia.

He did succeed several times in a row, but Wei Xia never gave in.

Not to mention giving in, he had no intention of admitting defeat at all.

As long as there is a successful defense, all setbacks will disappear from his heart, and all disappointments will go away from him.

Wade, like Wei Xia, is not good at shooting three-pointers.

But Wade is not good at three-pointers much more than Wei Xia.

Therefore, Wei Xia tentatively gave Wade a one-meter space, and he missed a three-pointer, giving the Lakers another chance to counterattack.

Wei Xia grabbed the long rebound and clearly pointed out the three-point and one-line counterattack. He ran all the time and still rushed to the front line, taking personal risks, forcing the Miamis to press the defense, and then passed the ball from the crowd to fellow student Vaughan Weaver.

Weaver's corner three-pointer, there it is!

The Lakers chased to 10 points, the irritable Wade broke through and dropped the ball, and Wei Xia counterattacked again.

Catch up to 8 points.

The Heat were forced to ask for a timeout, and the crazy Lakers started.

This is the result of not giving up, and this is why you must persevere.

Wei Xia high-fived every teammate who fought side by side, and everyone walked off the field at the same time.

Kobe saw what he had done and asked himself, if it were me, could I change the face of the game with actions like him?

Kobe thinks he can, but the process and approach must be completely different from Wei Xia.
