After Wade came on the court, he deliberately avoided Zhou Yang, tried to use the cover of his teammates, switched defenses, and changed Zhou Yang to the far side.

Using this method, Wade succeeded twice in a row.

But Zhou Yang didn't give the Heat a chance to catch up with the score. He first used Turiaf's support, drilled into the bottom corner, received a pass and hit a three-pointer!

Then he assisted Butler and scored a mid-range shot.

Although Wade worked very hard, the point difference was always oscillating between seven and eight points.

When playing for 4 minutes in the fourth quarter, the two sides replaced the main lineup one after another.

Although after Bosh reappeared, he made the interior dark and dark, but Zhou Yang and Curry's rounds of bombing on the outside made the Heat's point-chasing action come back in vain.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the strong Eastern Conference No. [-] Heat at home.

This narrowed the gap between the Warriors and the third-placed Spurs in the West.

Although the Heat still rank first in the Eastern Conference, they lost to the uncrowned champion, which cast a shadow over the Heat's way to win the championship.

Although this year's Heat is different from the Heat in the previous two years, losing to the same team in a row will make fans and players have an inexplicable fear.

To break that fear, you need to win.

Unfortunately, the Heat failed to double kill the Warriors in the regular season.

After the game, both Wade and Bosh came over and chatted with the Splash Brothers for a while.

It was obvious that they were disappointed, even a little desperate.

For both of their superstars, the hunger for a championship is palpable.

Now money and honor are not important to them.

Wade is in his 30s and Bosh is almost [-].

Although Wade has won a championship, no one will be satisfied. This championship will make people obsessed and addicted. He will try his best to fight for the second championship.

……

In the next few games, the Warriors won four consecutive victories.

However, the Thunder, Clippers and Spurs, the top three in the West, also won, so the Warriors still rank fourth.

Two days later, the Warriors finally had a chance to overtake the Spurs.

The Spurs lost on the road to the Eastern Conference team, the Bulls.

An hour later, the Warriors also have a game. As long as the Warriors can beat their opponents, the Warriors will surpass the Spurs and rise to third in the West.

This opponent is not so easy to deal with——

Los Angeles Lakers!

In the past two seasons, the Lakers fell out of the championship team, but as long as Kobe is around, no one dares to underestimate this team.

Especially this season, the Lakers have simply become a strong team killer.

The Thunder, Clippers, and Spurs have all lost to the Lakers.

The characteristic of the Lakers this season is four words: "Kill the rich and help the poor!"

Therefore, the media is not optimistic that the Warriors can beat the Lakers.

In the last few games, Kobe averaged 41.2 points per game and seemed to be back to his peak.

The scoring efficiency is amazing.

At the press conference before the game, Kobe was interviewed.

When he faced reporters' questions, he answered very cleverly.

"Kobe, the Warriors have already won two championships, do you think the Lakers still have hope of winning?"

If it was a few years ago, Kobe might be angry, because in his eyes, no team is to be feared.

But the current Kobe is mature and prudent. In addition, he likes Zhou Yang and Curry very much, and has never stepped on the Splash Brothers in public.

"The Warriors' two consecutive championships only represent the past two seasons. They are the best team, but this season, we will become a dark horse in the playoffs. We will pass all the way and win the championship!"

If someone else said that, the reporter might burst into laughter, but this was said by Kobe, and the reporters all looked serious and had no objection.

The reporter asked again: "Before the All-Star Game, the Warriors defeated the Lakers. In that game, you only scored 31 points, while Zhou Yang scored 38 points. Do you think you will score more than Zhou Yang in the next game?"

Kobe was a little hesitant. He thought for two seconds, then shook his head and said, "I can't guarantee that the score will surpass Zhou Yang. That kid has too many scoring methods, and the three-pointer is more accurate, but our Lakers will beat the Warriors and get victorious!"

This was said very cautiously, and the reporter couldn't find anything wrong with it.

……

At the Warriors press conference, Zhou Yang and Curry were interviewed.

"Brother Yang, the Lakers are in excellent form recently. Are you confident that they can beat the Lakers in an away game?"

Zhou Yang smiled: "I have confidence, but winning or losing is possible, I don't care too much."

"However, the Spurs just lost. If you can beat the Lakers, you will surpass the Spurs and rise to third place."

Zhou Yang shook his head and said: "I won't think about these things. You have to be hard on your own, and you can't just rely on others to lose. We will work hard to play every game well!"

This answer made many reporters very satisfied. They all applauded and applauded Zhou Yang's wonderful answer.

Curry also gave Zhou Yang a thumbs up and gave him a high five to express his support.

Another reporter asked: "Stephen, you shoot more and more three-pointers and become more and more decisive, while Yang Erge shoots very few three-pointers. Is this a good agreement between you two?"

Zhou Yang and Curry looked at each other and both smiled.

Curry replied: "Brother Yang's attack range is very large. He will adjust his attack method according to the specific game situation. He may not shoot three-pointers, but once he makes a shot, no one can defend him!"

The reporter originally wanted to provoke a little, so that Curry and Zhou Yang exposed the conflict.

Who knows, Curry once again used practical actions to show the solid friendship between him and Zhou Yang, and no one can provoke it!

……

An hour later, Staples Arena in Los Angeles.

The Warriors challenged the Lakers away.

The Lakers' starting lineup is Kobe, Howard, Gasol, Nash, and Mehta.

The Warriors' starting five are Zhou Yang, Curry, Chandler, Turkoglu and Tony Allen.

After Howard and Nash came to the Lakers, their performance was not so stable, which disappointed many Lakers players.

Needless to say, Nash is already in his 30s, and he came to the Lakers just to compete for another championship.

Howard is in his prime, but he has a back injury and he hasn't returned to his peak form.

Therefore, this Lakers team is very strong on paper, but it has not been twisted into a single rope, and it cannot play dominance.

But the strength of this group of people lies here, and no one dares to underestimate them.

Occasionally hit a few good rounds, and the game will be taken away by waves.

With a jump ball in the middle circle, Howard grabbed the first wave of possession.

Nash dribbles forward to the frontcourt.

Although Nash is a few years older, his organizational and coping skills are still there.

Gasol came up to screen and blocked Curry.

Howard doesn't like pick-and-rolls, so the screens are usually done by Gasol.

Nash took the opportunity to go to the left, ready to give Howard an alley-oop opportunity.
