Chapter 280 Wade Hit the Wall, Expected Christmas Game and All-Star Game
"Joe Johnson faced Michael Reid's defense and hit a mid-range fadeaway jumper! The time was zero, and the Suns completely killed the game with the help of Joe Johnson's mid-range shot!"

"It was an incredible game. The Bucks, who led by 21 points in the first half, were reversed by the Suns in the second half!"

"The Suns' record this season is pretty good, maybe the Suns will become a new power in the West."

Encountering the situation of being killed by the opponent, this made He Li and other Bucks players a little uncomfortable.

"Hey, I really don't know what to say, Dwyane just happened to hit the rookie wall today!" Reed said after the game.

If Reid can prevent Joe Johnson's last attack, then Wade will not have to blame him no matter how hard he is.

But it just so happened that Reed failed to defend against the attack, and was instead killed by Joe Johnson. While feeling upset, Reid wanted to make up for something, so he blamed Wade, who was in poor form during this period.

"Today's problem lies with me. I didn't lead everyone to win the game. As for Dwyane, it's a good thing to hit the rookie wall so early!"

He Li patted Wade on the shoulder, but he didn't attribute the loss to Wade.

He Li is very clear that the main reason for losing this game is that everyone is not in a good state.

As He Li said, He Li's own performance was also very average, and he failed to use his absolute strength to help the Bucks win the game.

The overall victory of the Bucks is definitely better than the Suns, even if the Suns have Marbury, and Stoudemire and singles Joe have grown up again.

But so what?The Suns only have two All-Stars, one is Penny Hardaway, and the other is the lone wolf Marbury who has no personal strength but lacks the ability to lead the team.

Of course, the Bucks lost the game today, and the performance of Wade and Reid was a key factor.

Wade has been in a slump recently and seems to have hit a rookie wall.

For stars, the sooner they hit the rookie wall, the better.

For a star like Wade who is destined to grow into a superstar, and even has superpowers at his peak, it is only a matter of time before he breaks through the rookie wall.

When Wade completely breaks through the rookie wall, the Bucks can reduce some of Wade's ball possessions and start to resolve the existing contradictions of the team.

Now the main contradiction of the Bucks is the lack of possession of the ball, resulting in insufficient team play in some games.

And when someone really needed to stand up, even He Li couldn't get the ball, which was embarrassing.

Let’s just talk about today’s game. Recently, Reid has been a little tempered, because the record is not bad, everyone let him go and let him brush up the statistics.

In this regard, Payton and Karl Malone are both experienced, so they have no opinion.

Unexpectedly, under the influence of Reed's scoring in the third quarter, the Suns played a 12-4 spurt, and the point difference between the two teams was suddenly narrowed.

When He Li returned to the court to stabilize the score, and because Reid and Wade both missed the mid-range shots, they missed some opportunities to start.

Entering the fourth quarter, the Bucks fell behind by points.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Reed felt that he had to step forward as the team's second-in-command to save the team.

At the beginning, he did hit two consecutive three-pointers, scoring more than 20 points and approaching 30 points.

But later, because he was close to 30 points, he shot in order to collect scoring data, so it gradually became a tragedy.

When George Karl removed Reid, He Li presided over the overall situation, but because the Suns He Li imposed the Jordan Law, He Li's offensive effectiveness was affected.

At the same time, the Suns outside pitchers suddenly felt overwhelmed, no matter how they shot.

Fortunately, Payton contributed a lot on the defensive end in the fourth quarter. He made two consecutive steals and helped the Bucks reverse the fast break, scoring 4 points to stabilize the situation.

But to say a thousand words and ten thousand, the Bucks were still killed by Joe Johnson.

Today's singles Joe is not an All-Star star, but his scoring ability is enough to become the second head of a strong team, and he is not far from the All-Star.

"Dwyane, go back and practice your mid-range shot. I believe you're almost there." Back in the locker room, He Li encouraged Wade again before taking a shower.

Losing is not terrible, but not knowing where to lose is terrible.

Wade hit the rookie wall now, mainly because he suddenly improved the mid-range. He was sure in training, but in the game, the key is that he failed.

In fact, this season, Wade has shot 61% from the basket, 42% from the mid-range, and 28% from the three-point range.

Mid-range shooting and three-pointers still look terrible, but with this year's defensive strength, with this shooting rate, it's not bad.

You know, this is still the overall shooting percentage, including those Xia Ji's eight-shot shots that Wade made in the beginning of the game.

According to Wade's current strength and continue, by the end of the regular season, it is not surprising that Wade's field goal percentage has increased to 45%, and his three-pointers have increased to 33%.

But the problem is that Wade obviously has an unusually big heart, but it's not working right now.

The more critical the moment, the more anxious the game is, the easier it is for Wade to hit the ball.

And when this situation happened more than once, Wade himself seemed very anxious, the bigger and the more chaotic, and then he hit the wall.

Needless to say, there are also psychological factors involved.

Wade wants to break the rookie wall and can only overcome it on his own.

Still, training has to be done.As a rookie, don't expect him to practice shooting more in the training ground, do you still expect him to shoot in the game?

He Li doesn't want Wade to be a template for Simmons!If Wade wants to achieve Wade, the basket is a must.

Closer to home, after the Bucks lost to the Suns, they finally ended their three-game trip to the West.

By the time the Bucks return to Milwaukee, the time has come to December 12, Christmas is approaching.

"There's nothing wrong with us this year... We're obviously the champions!"

"It's good to rest at home at Christmas and spend time with your family. You are still young, so you always have a chance."

"Don't think about Christmas, let's focus on the All-Star voting!"

"Forget it. In comparison, I am more concerned about whether He Li is looking for an opportunity to abuse Dwyane again!"

As in previous years, the NBA's repertoire Christmas game has nothing to do with the Bucks.

It stands to reason that the Bucks have won two consecutive championships, and He Li is the face of the NBA. There are five Christmas games every year, which means that one-third of the All-Star teams will be arranged. Reasonably, the Bucks should be arranged.

However, it just didn't.

In this situation, on the one hand, the city of Milwaukee is too small, with only 60 to [-] people, no matter how many fans there are, there will be no more.

The Christmas game is a show that grabs the ratings, and the teams that are usually scheduled to participate in the Christmas game are all teams in big cities.

Let’s talk about the Cavaliers who are arranged this year. Although the Cavaliers’ football market is not big, the city is not small, with 300 million people and many potential fans.

The Cavaliers haven't played in the Christmas game for several years. This year, they just have the No. [-] pick, and it is LeBron James, who is popular all over the United States.

Most people in the Cleveland area want to pay attention to such a Christmas battle, and even many people in the entire Ohio state turn on the TV and watch the program specifically for this.

On the other hand, the boss of the Bucks is not white, let alone black.

After all, the NBA is an American NBA. Black people are almost equal to political correctness these years.

With blacks dominating the NBA, the audience in Beimi has accepted black players, but they have not yet accepted the fact that a Chinese player dominates the NBA.

As for why Mosaic was arranged for the Christmas game, it may be because the current boss of the team is still Francis.

For the Christmas war, it doesn't matter whether He Lican participates or not.

Anyway, He Libi entered the All-Star Game and is a frequent visitor to the playoffs. He does not lack the exposure of the Christmas game.

In He Li's view, I don't need to create a god, because in the eyes of many people, I have already become a god!
Compared with other Bucks players looking forward to participating in the Christmas game, He Li still pays more attention to the next All-Star Game.

He Li's focus on the All-Star Game is not because he is worried that James will steal his All-Star ticket champion. There is no such thing. At least for two or three years, James will not have this possibility.

It is said that these days, James is running for the All-Star as a guard, and the All-Star guard in the Eastern Conference is followed by Ai.

James has won a lot of support from fans, but it is far inferior to Iverson, and also inferior to McGrady, who is also running as a guard.

Carter and Hill are almost healed from their injuries this year, and there is such an active All-Star forward as He Li in the Eastern Conference.

Eastern forwards know that He Li has the support of Chinese fans behind him, and they can't compete.

And Carter and Hill are the former All-Star voters. If they want to compete with the three All-Star voters for the position of the starting All-Star forward in the Eastern Conference, it is really a dead end.

Therefore, even if he is as strong as McGrady, he is very self-aware. This season, he reported to play shooting guard early this season, not the best small forward.

James has Iverson and McGrady blocking the way, so there is no need to think about the next All-Star starter.

As for the Eastern Conference's All-Star guard backup, Kidd and Reed's old qualifications are relatively stable, and James, as a rookie, is usually not as eye-catching as the head coaches of the teams.

Then, it is normal not to be able to participate in this All-Star Game.

……

As the end of the year approaches, the weather in Milwaukee is getting colder and colder.

On December 12, the Bucks played against the Nets at home. I didn't want the feel of the Bucks players, as if they were also affected by the weather, and the audience was cold.

Fortunately, the Bucks lineup does not need to rely too much on shooting this season. When the three-pointer is unable to perform, and the mid-range shots are intermittent and not accurate enough, the Bucks can also let the guards continue to hit the basket, or give the ball to the inside.

As for the Nets, it's not that they didn't see that the Bucks didn't feel good, so they began to torture the Bucks with zone defense and locking the defense.

Taking advantage of the Bucks' poor overall condition and lack of touch, as long as the Nets can organize the Bucks players to hit the basket and score, the Nets can win the Bucks in the regular season as they did last season.

For the Nets, since they can't beat the Bucks in the playoffs, it's not a bad thing to win a few more games in the regular season.

Ever since, the Nets slammed into the basket to prevent the Bucks from breaking through and making close shots.

From the beginning of the second quarter, the Bucks had a weird picture when they attacked.

In the camera, there is only He Li outside the three-point line, and He Li stands one or two steps outside the three-point line, and then there is basically Richard Jefferson who is one step outside the free throw line to prevent He Li from breaking through. Sometimes the camera captures other people, and that is the referee.

As the boss of the Bucks, He Li encountered a situation where the whole team had no touch, so he could only stand at the top of the arc in pain and help the other players of the team to open up space.

After all, no matter how bad He Li feels, he still has a shooting rate of nearly [-]% from the outside.

Compared with other three-pointers, He Li's three-pointers are indeed much more stable.

As for the Nets, knowing that He Li is a good three-pointer, they are still willing to let He Li do shooting training, and will not give He Li an easy score, or give the Bucks an easy chance to score.

It can be seen that the Nets want to use the Lakers' strategy against the Bucks to target the Bucks, but the Nets' defensive strategy is somewhat deviated.

It's just to prevent He Li from breaking through, and not to defend He Li closely, which makes He Li feel uncomfortable when shooting. Then He Li simply does shooting training from outside the three-point line, and he will not be tired no matter how he shoots.

Even if the rest of the Bucks encounter a scoring shortage, He Li is still expected to score 61 points in a single game again.

"Amazing skills, He Li once again hit a three-pointer from outside the three-point line. This is He Li's 10th three-pointer in this game! Congratulations to He Li for breaking the league's three-pointer record!"

It was impossible for He Li to shoot all three-pointers before, so he has never broken the three-pointer record.

The record for three-pointers this year is not difficult to break, there were only 9 before.

Today, I found an opportunity to let the NBA leave its mark.

And next, every time He Li makes a three-pointer, he can further deepen this mark.

However, as opponents, the Nets players naturally don't want to see He Li just shoot them to death with a three-pointer.

"Obviously an enemy, an opponent I hope to defeat.

But I don’t know what’s going on, I’m physically and mentally exhausted, I don’t know when,

Whenever He Li throws the ball in forcefully, his body will feel a numb feeling.

No, He Li is not Michael Jordan, I can't be convinced by him!

Impossible, I must defeat him! "

"He Li is indeed very strong, but not invincible. I think with our efforts, we can win this game!"

"The game has not been lost, and the point difference has not been widened. As long as we defend well, I believe that victory belongs to us."

He Li's performance today was indeed shocking, but no one on and off the net wanted to lose.

Over the past two years, the Nets have been defeated by the Bucks. After finally having a chance to win the regular season, the Nets players naturally don't want to lose.

However, things backfired, as He Li continued to refresh the three-pointer record.

As the Nets had to adopt Jordan's rules for He Li, He Li turned to a combination of sudden shots and ran to the free throw line to perform his sky hook stunt.

It is impossible for Nets players not to be defeated by He Li.

And when He Li hit the last goal of the game, it was clear that the game had already been decided, and the Bucks' live commentator stood up excitedly from his seat.

"Where is the police, I'm going to call the police, the league shouldn't let him shoot anymore! Doctor, doctor, I need a doctor, my heart, ah!!! He Li's shooting is so handsome!"
