The Heat exposed too many problems.
The team didn't score a single point, made two consecutive turnovers, and didn't even have a decent shot.
The players walked to the rest area with their heads down, ready to face the head coach's anger.
The three veterans were not suitable for this rhythm at all. Pat Riley's eyes were wide open.
It should have been a more experienced lineup, but it was completely out of proportion when the opponent beat it.
"Dwyane, you have to believe in yourself or believe in Shaq. This is superstar basketball. Be selfish and attack their basket."
"Pay attention to your hands. They will use any means to counterattack. The opponent's small lineup is not as weak as we thought."
"But as long as we can grasp the goal, we can still win this game."
Pat Riley's timeout was very timely and decisive. The slightly inexperienced head coach let the team play on the court for another minute.
The score difference may become within single digits.
At that time, even if the opponent adjusts after gaining momentum, it will be difficult to defend.
This shows Riley's sophistication.
He hesitated for a moment and replaced Mourning with Haslem.
Lowering the height brings a certain degree of flexibility. Anyway, Roy and the other two can't defend.
It's better to let Haslem, who is younger and more impactful, play.
Mourning felt a little disappointed, but there was nothing he could do. He did have an unshirkable responsibility for the mistakes in the last two rounds.
The game started again.
Kid's defender changed from Mourning to Haslem, and the pressure was reduced.
Wade also listened to the advice of Coach Riley. After finding that O'Neal had no chance on the outside,
he started to break through directly.
Carter's defense was very tight, but Wade didn't care and really let him find a gap.
Near the basket, Wade found a gap and passed it from Carter's side.
While he was still complacent, he found that the Nets players were already surrounded in front, behind and on the left.
The tallest one in front of him was Roy.
He was fooled! This is the pocket formation set up by the Nets. No wonder I thought Carter's defense level had dropped so much just now.
It turned out that the opponent did it on purpose.
Wade, trapped in a three-man double team, had no room to pass the ball,
and no room to shoot.
Wade wanted to pause, but found that the referee could not see him at all. He was blocked by three players on the opposite side.
The basketball was exposed in the crowd.
Roy took advantage of the gap and reached out to grab the basketball. He and Wade hugged each other because of the basketball.
"Beep" the referee blew the whistle.
Fight for the ball!
How can you call a fight for the ball? This is the home court of the Heat.
The fans on the sidelines expressed their dissatisfaction with boos.
Even the referee has to give some face to the home advantage.
But the slow-motion replay on the court showed that if the referee had not blown the whistle in time, the Heat might not even have a chance to fight for the ball.
It is obvious that Roy's strength is greater than Wade's. The ball in Wade's arms has been almost pulled into Roy's arms.
If the referee was one second late, the ball would have belonged to the Nets.
The two sides fought for the ball at the free throw line.
The Heat kept two players. The slower O'Neal and Eddie Jones were ready to return to defense in their own half.
The height difference was too big, so there was no suspense.
Roy took the ball in the air with a slight jump and passed it to Lagabel.
Lagabel dribbled across half court and passed it back to Kidd.
Then Carter suddenly ran back and accelerated past Wade.
Kidd decisively hit the ground pass, and Carter got the basketball on the way.
Taking advantage of the situation, he raided the Heat's basket.
"This ball must be defended, Shaq!"
Wade reminded O'Neal in time that he was also chasing Carter, so he didn't believe it.
Would the two people's front and back attack give Carter a chance to shoot?
There was indeed no chance.
Carter was not very good at shooting, but he had a chance to pass the ball.
After the jump ball, Roy, the slowest player, had already reached the three-point line.
Carter made a powerful pass, which passed Wade's ear.
The basketball flew towards Roy.
Haslem watched Roy continue to retreat.
He stepped one step inside the three-point line and stopped.
The basketball suddenly appeared in Roy's hand in front of Haslem.
Danger! Level 1 alarm!
Roy was still at least one step outside the three-point line.
After receiving the ball, he raised his hand and shot without making any adjustments.
The distance was too far. Haslem did not expect Carter to pass the ball after he broke into the basket.
He did not expect that Roy would not make any adjustments at all at a distance of nearly two steps from the three-point line.
"Swish"
The basketball went into the basket, which was a heartbreaking sound.
94 to 85,The score difference was only 9 points, and there were 9 minutes and 25 seconds left in the fourth quarter.
The Nets scored nine points in a row!
"Nice, just do it, kick Pat Riley's ass!"
Stan Van Gundy was dancing excitedly in the audience.
He was depressed when he was 18 points behind in the third quarter. He didn't expect the Nets to be so powerful.
The desperate lineup was unexpectedly useful.
The Heat were helpless.
His loud cheers attracted the attention of the surrounding fans.
It was not until this time that he looked around and found that he was surrounded by burly men.
Everyone looked at Stan Van Gundy who was dancing fiercely.
This fat guy who came from nowhere, is he looking for death? Is he gloating over the bad situation of the Heat?
The scene was very embarrassing for a while. Stan Van Gundy stopped dancing when he saw the unfriendly eyes around him.
He reacted quickly:
"Damn it, I mean the damn Nets, kick their asses hard..."
The big beads of sweat were blocked by the hoodie, and the faces of the surrounding fans eased.
"Udonis!" Pat Riley almost gritted his teeth,
Roy's three-point ability was repeatedly emphasized during every training,
How could he make such a low-level mistake at this time,
Both are rookies, look at Haslem and then look at Roy on the opposite side,
There is a gap called comparison, people will die if compared with people, and goods will be thrown away if compared with goods!
Haslem is also innocent, I am just a rookie who was not selected,
The third pick on the opposite side, the first team in the rookie season and the MVP have all been won,
Compare me with him, how much salary do you give me?
Pat Riley took a deep breath, his heart was blocked.
Riley's assistant carefully helped him sit down.
The score difference has narrowed to single digits.
At Pat Riley's instruction, the assistant coach called a timeout.
After taking a few deep breaths, Pat Riley calmed down.
"Listen, Dwyane, there are many ways to attack. Not every round has to attack the basket. You did a good job in the first three quarters. Breaking through is also OK. Eddie has a good touch today..."
Pat Riley took the tactical board and wrote and drew. He wanted to make the tactics simpler.
After being chased by points continuously, the Heat obviously couldn't calm down.
The simpler the tactics, the more effective they are at this time.
The most important thing is that the team's stars should take responsibility at this moment.
"Dwyane, the game has reached the most critical moment. You have to think about what Michael Jordan will do and what Kobe will do at this time. We need you!"
Wade blushed, clenched his fists, and couldn't help getting excited.
Michael Jordan's buzzer beater and Kobe's finals came to mind.
And tonight I will prove my worth on the court!
