pinnacle of basketball

Chapter 512
"Now is not the time to be complacent. They will definitely launch a more violent offensive later. Everyone must be mentally prepared." Wade poured cold water on the players at the right time. The game is not over yet, how can they relax?

The lineup sent by the Heat is five players with excellent offense and defense in the team, which also shows their game attitude, based on defense and playing defensive counterattack. This is a classic game tactic in football games, and it is also applicable in basketball games.

The core of defensive counterattack is to control the rebounds in the backcourt, and at the same time make the most of the advantage of playing more and playing less.

The Heat still use a small and flexible lineup. It was this lineup that recovered the points that the Heat were behind. The effect is quite good. The Lakers could have used a small lineup to deal with it, but for the protection of rebounds, the Lakers still retained a big insider, so the Lakers were at a certain disadvantage in terms of movement speed.

However, the advantage in height is also obvious.

At the beginning, the Lakers relied on their own big insiders, so they fought a slower-paced positional battle with the Heat. This change was unexpected by the Heat. The Lakers no longer required a fast-paced offense, but a success rate.

There are inside players occupying positions in the penalty area, which makes the Lakers' offense very decisive, and the outside players also shoot very simply. Although Mu Chenfeng is not tall, he has the protection of rebounds, so that they can gain something in every positional battle.

The Heat took advantage of their speed and played a fast-paced game with the Lakers. At this time, the disadvantages of the Lakers' "one inside and four outside" lineup were also highlighted.

Center is both an advantage and a disadvantage. Under the rapid advance of the Heat, the Lakers have always been in a situation of playing more and playing less on the defensive end. The Heat seized every opportunity to score.

The Lakers' "one inside, four outside" tactics failed to succeed, so they changed to a small lineup to compete with the Heat. The Lakers' small lineup was as flexible as the Heat's, and the two sides once again formed an evenly matched situation.

The pace of the game was further accelerated, the two sides refused to give in to each other, and the moment of decisive battle had arrived.

"It's the fourth quarter, and these players can still run so fast."

"Because they don't want to lose, they have to keep up with their opponents. If they can't keep up, the game is over."

The 10 players present were not affected by physical strength at all, and they ran tirelessly on the field, back and forth.

"It's almost time." Mu Chenfeng glanced at the timer. It's almost 7 minutes into the fourth quarter, and the score has not been opened yet. There are only 5 minutes left in the game.

"Five minutes left." Barrett said softly.

"These 5 minutes must be pushed down, otherwise the previous 27 consecutive victories will be wasted."

When it comes to the winning streak, the morale of the Heat players is immediately raised. Yes, they are only one step away from 28 consecutive victories, how can they fall here.

A group of black fireworks is slowly being formed.

And the Lakers are not weak. As the league's largest team, the Zijin Army will not allow themselves to become the background of history. With this mentality, the state of the players has also improved to the best.

During the game, the shooting percentage of the players will decrease with the exhaustion of physical strength, and the two teams have completely broken people's understanding of traditional basketball, and the shooting percentage has not decreased. Moreover, they have become more and more focused on playing, and the confrontation has become more and more intense.

This victory is to be snatched.

The Heat took the lead in attacking, and under the leadership of the Big Three, they played a 6:0 attack wave. The Big Three showed their own characteristics to the fullest.

Wade used a ghostly pass to complete an assist to his teammates, Barrett used his body to force his opponent, and Mu Chenfeng provided fire support from the outside.

Just after the Heat saw the dawn of victory, James responded with his 40th point of the game. He tried his best in this game. Before the game was over, he had already achieved a super triple-double of 40+12+13.

This is an unconventional Lakers game.

After the Lakers have introduced many capable players this season, they rarely need James to carry the team forward alone. Oscar and Felix will provide him with a lot of support.

This configuration worked well for the other 28 teams, but they happened to meet the Heat and Mu Chenfeng who knew them best.

It was Mu Chenfeng who helped the team limit the performance of the Lakers' "double star" and forced out the most versatile James.

It's just that even though James has the ability to turn the tide, but facing the Big Three of the Heat at the same time, when facing a well-trained and extremely united team, James' performance is very tragic.

The 3-point gap lasted for a full 3 minutes, and the Lakers were still unable to catch up or overtake.

The Heat's iron-blooded defense locked everyone except James at the critical moment. James showed his No.1 arrogance in the league at this time.

The Lakers got a chance to tie the score, but the tie couldn't satisfy James' desire for victory. He deliberately missed the free throw, grabbed the rebound, and then hit two points, scoring 4 points in one round to help the Lakers reverse the situation.

From being behind to leading, the Lakers can finally take a breath, and the pressure has come to the side of the Heat.

With only the last offensive round left, the Heat must have a 100% success rate.

Looking back at James' ingenious offensive choice, it was extremely terrifying and beyond everyone's expectations. At that time, only James knew what he was going to do, and only he could grab that rebound.

Wade controlled the ball calmly. The Lakers were not in a hurry. They were in the lead now, and the number of fouls had already reached.

Mu Chenfeng read the Lakers' defense. It was very complete. It was almost impossible for the Heat to break through. There were defensive leaders like James and Oscar on the outside.

The Heat can only rely on the pass to find a breakthrough, but the basketball can only be passed from the outside to the outside, and the inside cannot be passed at all. Seeing that the time has entered the final countdown, the Heat's players began to become anxious. The game will be ended directly, but the Lakers don't know it, so the Lakers players pay attention to their actions when defending to avoid fouls.

"There's no time." Mu Chenfeng ran back and got rid of the defender. Wade immediately gave the ball out. Mu Chenfeng didn't stop the ball and went straight to the inside. Oscar raised his arms high and didn't foul, but he followed closely. He used his body to "push" Mu Chenfeng outside the basket.

At the last second, Mu Chenfeng drifted his shot from the baseline. Due to a little poor control, the basketball hit the basket, jumped twice on the basket repeatedly, and still popped out of the basket.
