NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

The Heat serve from the baseline, and Arroyo dribbles to the frontcourt and gives the ball to James on the outside.

After Elthorton passed the first defense, he directly let James take a step this time. At the same time, the rest of the Wizards also paid some attention to this side.

James dribbled the ball twice from the perimeter and made a change of direction with both hands in front of his body, but Thornton basically stayed in place and did not give James any chance to break through.

Seeing that Thornton didn't respond, and he couldn't find a chance when he changed direction, James launched the tank to break through again, stepped straight out, put his left hand on the ball-protecting elbow, and rushed in against Thornton!

Although Thornton still couldn't prevent James' breakthrough, the Wizards' support came quickly this time. Nick Young helped Thornton stop James at the free throw line in time.

Seeing that the possibility of a layup was very slim, James threw the ball directly to Bosh, who was let go by Li Kaiming.

This was the first time Bosh got the ball to attack since the opening game. He was hit twice by a rookie. As an All-Star, Bosh was naturally unconvinced, so he dribbled directly towards the baseline to break through.

Li Kaiming defended sideways and forced Bosh to the border of the penalty area and the baseline. This is at a negative angle to the backboard. Generally, there is no way to shoot unless you throw it from the backboard.

Just when Li Kaiming thought that Bosh was being guarded by him, Bosh suddenly joined the ball with both hands, turned around with a spinning top with his left foot as the axis, and then easily hit the cricket and scored!

8 is better than 5!

wipe!

Li Kaiming cursed angrily in his heart, how could he forget that Bosh can do this trick!

The game continued, the Wizards attacked, Hinrich and Li Kaiming picked and rolled, this time the Wizards set up two screen positions on the line, one was Li Kaiming outside the three-point line, and the other was Brac at the free throw line.

Li Kaiming bounced to the outside immediately after the pick-and-roll, attracting the Heat's defenders to the outside, while Blatche made Hinrich successfully face the big Z at the free throw line, and then used his speed to force the latter and successfully won. 2 minutes!

8 is better than 7!

The shooting percentages of both sides are very high at the beginning of the game, mainly because neither side can defend the opponent.

This result is acceptable to Wizards coach Sanders, but it is completely unacceptable to Heat coach Spoelstra.

If the Heat lose their defense and play against the Wizards, then this game will completely follow the rhythm of the Wizards!

So Spoelstrom made a gesture to the Heat players on the sidelines, the meaning was obvious, and the defense was strong.

The Heat attacked, and Arroyo gave the ball to Wade after arriving in the front court. The latter forced a breakthrough in the face of Nick Young's defense, and turned around at the free throw line for a throw. Hinrich.

After the Wizards came to the frontcourt, they were going to play another pick-and-roll tactic from outside and inside, but Hinrich was forced to stop at the free throw line this time, and in desperation passed the ball to Nick Young on the outside, but was directly intercepted by Wade. !

The Heat suddenly strengthened their defensive strength on the outside, and the Wizards have not yet reacted.

After Wade steals the ball, he directly dribbles and rushes forward. At the same time, a strong gorilla-like figure also rushes over there. After James' speed is raised, Thornton can't keep up at all!

Li Kaiming is the only player in the Wizards who can chase and defend, but he is one against two, defending Wade's fast break but not James' alley-oop.

The Heat scored two more points, 10 to 7!

The Wizards served the ball, and the Heat were still defending with high pressure from the outside, without giving any space. Li Kaiming turned his back to the inside to get a position, and Bosh was stuck to take the basketball from Hinrich.

But the moment the ball was passed to him, the Heat's double team arrived!

In desperation, Li Kaiming had no choice but to pass the ball to Al Thornton who was open on the outside, and the latter was released by James to help defend Li Kaiming.

This time James actually gave enough opportunities. When Li Kaiming passed the ball to Thornton, James had no intention of returning to defense at all. iron.

James rushed to the inside and jumped high to grab the backboard, and then launched another fast break!

The Wizards players barely kept up. James pushed Thornton into the penalty area, attracted Li Kaiming's defense and then passed it to Bosh, who made a mid-range shot!

12 is better than 7!

After the Heat improved their defensive strength, they expanded the point difference to 5 points in two rounds.

When Sanders on the sidelines was hesitating whether to call a timeout to replace Lewis, Li Kaiming on the court directly asked himself to play from the bottom line!

Seeing the firm expression on Li Kaiming's face, Sanders felt a sense of steadfastness in his heart for no reason, and held back the pause at the edge of his mouth, let's watch a round first!

And Reid, the commentator on the sidelines, also showed interest after seeing Li Kaiming asking for the ball from the bottom line, "It seems that Li Kaiming wants to stand up and use his personal ability to solve the team's crisis. It's a test, if you can prevent Li Kaiming's heads-up, then tonight's victory will almost be in Spoelstra's pocket!"

Jackson next to him also nodded, "In the past dozen games this season, whenever the Wizards were in trouble, Li Kaiming would stand up. Today he thinks the same way, but tonight's opponent is not the same as before. Those opponents can compare!"

"Orlando's defense is also very strong!" Reed reminded Jackson.

"Orlando's defense is strong inside. Lee has never encountered a team with such a strong outside defense as the Heat!" Jackson still does not believe that Li Kaiming can break the team's scoring drought under the Heat's high-pressure defense.

The two commentators on the scene were discussing Li Kaiming's skills. The latter had already dribbled to the frontcourt. Bosh had been waiting at the three-point line. As soon as Li Kaiming arrived in the frontcourt, he immediately posted it.

In the studio of Huaguo Sports Channel, Zhang Weiping looked at Li Kaiming on the screen, his hands were sweating, "The Heat's current defensive strength is at the playoff level, and Wade and James on the outside are both very good defenders. I wonder what method Li Kaiming will choose to end this attack?"

As soon as Zhang Weiping finished speaking, Su Qun, who was sitting by the side, cheered up, "It's started!"

Facing Bosh's defense, Li Kaiming on the screen first crossed his hands and dribbled the ball to find a breakthrough rhythm, but he didn't let the defender lose his position.

Bosh still kept his body firmly in front of Li Kaiming, leaving no chance for the latter to break through.

After dribbling to find the rhythm, Li Kaiming suddenly made a scissors step. The two feet that were originally one left and one right suddenly changed to one front and one back. Then the ball protector swung down to block Bosh's extended arm. Push the ground with the back foot and directly kill the three-point line with a big stride!

Although Bosh had defended Li Kaiming for several rounds, he was still shocked by Li Kaiming's breakthrough speed!

This guy is really too fast!

Moreover, Li Kaiming's speed is not simply fast, but faster every time. Whenever he thought that the last breakthrough was Li Kaiming's fastest speed, the next time he broke through, Li Kaiming would come up with an explosion that surprised him!

Bosh immediately moved his legs to follow the direction of Li Kaiming's breakthrough. At the same time, James, who was defending Thornton, directly blocked Li Kaiming's breakthrough route just like last time.

But Li Kaiming didn't head straight to the basket. After this extremely fast first step bypassed Bosh, he directly joined the ball with both hands and quickly adjusted the position of both feet, and then directly made an emergency stop jump shot!

James didn't expect that Li Kaiming would directly shoot 2 points, so Li Kaiming was not disturbed at all in this attack, and the two points were directly hit!

This allowed James, who rushed to the basket to protect the backcourt rebound, to miss.

The difference between the two sides came to 12 to 9!

Li Kaiming scored 9 of the Wizards' 7 points.

The Heat attacked, and Arroyo took the ball to the frontcourt and handed it to James on the outside. The latter directed the rest of the Heat to pull away, and then faced Thornton's defense and made another tank breakthrough!

I don't know if it's because Thornton didn't warm up well before the game, or the intensity of the game was too high. In the process of defending James this time, Thornton suddenly fell down clutching his knees...

James took the opportunity to rush to the basket and scored again, 14 to 9.

Sanders on the sidelines turned pale and immediately called a timeout.

The team doctor of the Wizards rushed to the field carrying a box, and the players of the Wizards also surrounded Thornton and stood beside him.

This was the first time that Li Kaiming saw a teammate get injured in the NBA. Seeing Thornton rolling on the floor with his hands on his knees, Li Kaiming couldn't stand it any longer.

The team doctor checked briefly, then frowned and shook his head at Saunders. It was obvious that Elthorton's condition was not optimistic!

Sanders wanted to smash the tactical board in his hand. Thornton was the only reliable defender on the outside of the Wizards. Now the Wizards really became a defensive player!

The timeout was short, and the team doctor called Sun Yue and Booker, who were on the bench, to come over and take Thornton away. Sanders had to change the lineup on the field and let Lewis replace Thornton in the starting lineup.

Even Thornton couldn't guard against James, let alone Lewis!

The Heat's home commentator Jackson also understands this, "El Thornton, who is the most defensive outside the Wizards, retired due to injury, and Sanders had to take Rashad Lewis. Now the Wizards' defense can almost be said It’s gone! Tonight’s game is basically won!”

And Su Qun, a commentator from Huaguo Sports Channel, who came to the same conclusion, did a lot of surveys on the Wizards players, "El Thorton is currently the most reliable defender on the outside of this Wizards team. His injury and retirement was a devastating blow to the Wizards' defense. The Wizards were short on the perimeter, and this is really a leak in the night!"

And Zhang Weiping on the side was even livid with anger. Of course, he also understood what Elthorton's defense meant to the Wizards.

The timeout passed quickly and players from both sides returned to the court again.

Originally, the opponent's lineup was stronger than the Wizards, but now he has lost a general on his side. Li Kaiming knows that the current Wizards team is in a panic. If they don't do something, they may not only lose today's game , it is very likely that the losing streak will be like last time!

So he must stand up and take on the responsibility of being the core of the team!
