Super Legendary Superstar

In the first game of the series, O'Neal used his actions to tell Sun Zhuo and everyone that he would not talk about brotherhood on the basketball court. In order to win, he would still be cruel to Sun Zhuo.

Sun Zhuo did not expect that the series against the Heat would be such an atmosphere, full of indifference and chill.

He did this because he wanted to completely treat me as a stranger. Although I don't think it is necessary to do this, I respect you. Strangers are strangers! Sun Zhuo felt a little sad, as if he had suddenly lost a good friend. He also knew that their friendship still existed after the series, but at this time he had to force his heart to become a little more cruel.

The scene was completely silent. Everyone looked at the faces of Sun Zhuo, O'Neal and Wade, and found that the expressions of the three of them were surprisingly consistent, all gloomy and indifferent.

The playoffs are the battlefield. There is only one championship, brother, and only the people around him can be called brothers. This should be something Sun Zhuo has to slowly accept. Although Yu Jia was not present, he also felt it. The atmosphere at the scene.

O'Neal made a move that showed no regard for brotherhood, but his heart was not so ruthless.

Sun, don't blame me. I can only stop you for two or three years at most. I want you to firmly remember the final dominance of my career!

Sun Zhuo stood on the free throw line expressionlessly, but his mentality and condition were not good, and he missed both free throws.

Hey, you missed both free throws. This is very rare. I wonder if O'Neal hit Sun Zhuo. Zhang Weiping was very worried about Sun Zhuo's condition.

The Miami Heat are worthy of being the defending champions. Even in an away game, they started as smoothly as if they were playing at home. Then, the Heat continued to score. As the Magic's number one star, Sun Zhuo also had to step up and score.

At this time, in order to prevent the Heat from taking too much of a lead at the start, Sun Zhuo resorted to bug hunting early on.

The Magic attacked again, and Sun Zhuo forced himself to get the ball in the low post. Anthony Walker, who was guarding him, was covered in fat, his arms were very thick, and his upper body strength was very strong. It was very difficult to get rid of him just by intertwining his arms. Sun Zhuo's current strength level was only A, he is far inferior to Walker in terms of physical confrontation.

However, at this very moment, Sun Zhuo had to catch the ball in the low post and score, so he forced his body to squeeze Anthony Walker and still caught the ball in the low post.

Got it. After successfully getting the ball in the low post, Sun Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Anthony Walker became a decoration for Sun Zhuo. No matter how strong he was, it was useless. Once Sun Zhuo entered the state of relying on play, , any defense by Walker could not stop Sun Zhuo's goal.

But just when Sun Zhuo wanted to dribble, Wade suddenly rushed over and double-teamed Sun Zhuo!

Double-teaming so quickly! I haven't entered the state of relying on fighting yet! Sun Zhuo didn't expect that he would be double-teamed when he tried to shoot for the first time in the first quarter. If it was the last quarter, after he was fully in the state, It's understandable that the opponent would defend like this, but now...could it be that they knew that Sun Zhuo could definitely make the shot?

If Wade comes to double-team later and Sun Zhuo has completely entered the state of relying on play, then even if two people block the shot, Sun Zhuo will still choose to turn over and shoot the jumper without hesitation, but now he has not entered the state of relying on play. BUG just can't be used.

Sun Zhuo quickly distributed the ball to Monta Ellis, and Wade quickly withdrew and went back to defend Monta Ellis. However, Sun Zhuo was still physically confronting Walker in the position, and Sun Zhuo continued to reach for the ball. , he still has to hit the low post once.

It seems that Sun Zhuo is very determined in his low-post attack this time. Pass the ball out and keep asking for it, said Yu Jiada.

Yes, he has a very high hit rate in low post singles, which is his most reliable way to score. Now that the Magic are in urgent need of scoring, he has to do this. Zhang Weiping explained.

However, just after Sun Zhuo asked for the ball again, Wade rushed over to double-team Sun Zhuo immediately when Sun Zhuo was not in a relying state!

Damn it! Sun Zhuo didn't expect Wade to double-team so resolutely. This must have been arranged by the coach. Sun Zhuo passed the ball to Monta Ellis. Ellis shot directly this time, but missed.

How could this happen? They could actually stop me from hitting the bug with my backrest. Did they see something? Sun Zhuo couldn't help but look at Pat Riley on the sidelines. Riley's face was expressionless and inscrutable. In this way, Sun Zhuo glanced at Wade and O'Neal again. These two people were also incomprehensible.

In the last round against the Bulls, Sun Zhuo was very comfortable using BUG, ​​and the opponent couldn't restrain him at all, but this round, something seems different.

Sun, although we don't know how you practice your back shooting, we do know how to guard you. Stop trying to score from behind. Pat Riley, like Phil Jackson, had long seen that Sun Zhuo Relying on the secret of fighting bugs, they know that once Sun Zhuo hits a few times, there is simply no solution for turning over and shooting. Therefore, the best way is to double-team Sun Zhuo as soon as he catches the ball, or use stealing the ball or other methods to stop Sun Zhuo. Zhuo relies on beating.

Coach Hill of the Magic was also a little surprised: If Pat Riley defends like this, we will indeed have many opportunities on the outside. The special training on three-pointers is not in vain, but why are all these guys so nervous? I have obviously practiced a lot of three-pointers, but I can't make them.

After all, the Magic are still too young. Facing the defending champion team, they were very nervous from the beginning and no one was in the state. As a result, they were led by the Heat by 10 points in the first quarter.

During the timeout, coach Hill said to Sun Zhuo: This series must be very difficult for you. Since they are ruthless to you, you should be more cold-blooded. You need to become a killer on the court.

Sun Zhuo nodded and said: This game feels difficult to control.

Coach Hill said: The opponent has two superstars. It is difficult for you to control the game like you did when playing the Bulls. Don't force yourself, and don't think too much. Just focus on scoring on the court.

The Heat are a mature championship team. Coach Hill does not expect to win this series. He only hopes that Sun Zhuo can fully utilize his abilities without any regrets.

However, even this hope may not come true.

In the second quarter, Sun Zhuo just scored a goal, and it became very difficult to attack after that. Walker began to shoot to prevent breakthroughs, forcing Sun Zhuo to shoot three-pointers instead of letting Sun Zhuo break in. Sun Zhuo was in average condition today. , The three-point shot is also inaccurate, and Walker cannot be stopped by forcing a breakthrough, but others will help defend immediately. If Sun Zhuo forces a shot, Sun Zhuo's ball can always be blocked.

Sun Zhuo will also use himself to attract defensive attention, and then pass the ball to Turkoglu. Turkoglu is Sun Zhuo's most trusted scoring teammate, but once Turkoglu gets the ball, he will be tightly guarded. , there was no chance for outside shooting at all, and Turkoglu was forced to break through, but Turkoglu's bounce was average and he had no chance when he reached the basket.

Oops, both Sun and Turkoglu were guarded to death! Coach Hill said a little melancholy. These are the Magic's two most important outside scoring points.

It would be great if Dwight Howard could make a difference in the paint at this time.

However, looking at the way Howard faced O'Neal, there was no hope at all.

As a result, after two quarters, the Magic trailed the Heat by 20 points!

Yu Jia was surprised: Being behind by 20 points at halftime, the Magic have never lost so much in the playoffs. The Heat are really strong. They completely guarded against Sun Zhuo and Turkoglu, and no one else stood up. Come out and score.”

Zhang Weiping added: Actually, this method has also been used by the Bulls, but it is not as effective as the Heat. It is because it is too easy for the Heat to score. You have to let Sun Zhuo score to keep up. If you want to save the ball, you still have to do it. You can’t rely on Sun Zhuo.”

Halftime, Magic locker room.

Sun Zhuo only scored 11 points at halftime, but he was still out of breath and very tired. Coach Hill put his hand on Sun Zhuo's shoulder and asked, Sun, are you okay?

Sun Zhuo shook his head and said, I will catch up with the score difference in the second half.

Even if there is a gap between the Magic and the Heat, it is not a gap of 20 points behind at halftime. Sun Zhuo does not want to collapse in the third quarter of the first game of the series.

Coach Hill fully trusts Sun Zhuo's ability, but he also sees that Sun Zhuo is destined to not have an easy time in this series: These Heat players are very strong and powerful. In this series, you guys It’s going to be tiring.”

Coach Hill is right. Among the five starters for the Heat, except for Jason Williams, who is a white man with an average body, people like Wade, Anthony Walker, Haslem, and O'Neal are all physically capable of crushing opponents. , so they only played half a game and didn't score much. Sun Zhuo and others were very physically exhausted.

Sun Zhuo took a sip of water and was thinking in his mind: Yes, the physical duel in this series will determine success or failure. None of our matchups can take advantage. No matter who defends Wade, he will be completely defeated by Wade. Dwight Howard's lower body strength is also far worse than O'Neal. Turkoglu has no physical talent and will be bullied by Haslem. Nelson will have a hard time facing Gary Payton, and they also have a tough guy in Alonzo Mourning. , is also a guy with a BT figure. Even if I meet them, I will be completely at a disadvantage. My strength is only A, not even A+. They have at least four S-level players!

Pat Riley is a coach who requires very high standards for his players, so these players under him, apart from other things, are all in the best condition they can achieve. O'Neal's body is the most difficult to control. As a player, he himself was lazy and unwilling to lose fat, but under Pat Riley, especially after winning a championship, he still obediently followed Riley's instructions and completed more than half of his goals this season.

Do you want to use my special training card for strength?

The strength competition in the playoffs is particularly critical. Sun Zhuo is the leading scorer and is destined to have physical collisions with people in various positions. Increasing strength seems to be a good choice.

In the Heat locker room, the Heat players and coaches were all calm, and there was no joy of a big victory, because this was expected, and the championship was their goal. How could they fail in the semifinals?

You defended well. If you continue to restrict Sun and Turkoglu like this, they won't be able to catch up in the second half. Pat Riley said slowly.

Yes, coach! Every Heat player is very motivated.

At this time, Wade said to O'Neal: Sun will not lose to us like this.

O'Neal smiled and said: I know, he is the 'number one in the regular season,' but in the playoffs, you are the number one. Don't forget whose house the FMVP trophy is.

Soon, the third quarter officially began. This quarter is also very critical. If the Magic cannot complete the counterattack in this quarter, the game will be over.

The Magic attack, Sun Zhuo holds the ball, and he also carries the hope of all Magic fans. Anthony Walker is still defending. Walker is still more afraid of Sun Zhuo's breakthrough and lets Sun Zhuo take a step outside the three-point line.

My long shot is A+, how dare you look down on me like this, it's really abominable. Sun Zhuo was also angry. He just shot a three-pointer. Now he was 20 points behind. Any method of controlling the situation would not work. He could only score desperately.

Shoot it directly? Walker was a little surprised. He thought the ball was a wild shot, but unexpectedly it hit the net!

The Heat didn't take it to heart. After all, they were still leading by a big score. But then, Sun Zhuo took advantage of the screen and hit another three-pointer from the top of the arc!

Hit two three-pointers from outside in a row! Sun Zhuo is about to start chasing points! Yu Jia became excited.

This is what makes him more troublesome than others. Pat Riley frowned and started to take it seriously.

Stimulated by Sun Zhuo's consecutive goals, the Magic successfully defended the next one. Sun Zhuo still wanted to shoot a three-pointer this time, but he held the ball and shot a three-pointer. I'm afraid he had no chance. Sun Zhuo kept throwing away Anthony Walker. Going to the bottom corner, Walker tried his best, but his speed was still slower than Sun Zhuo. In the end, he took off to block the shot a step too late. As a result, Sun Zhuo hit a 3+1 in the bottom corner!

Yeah! Well done!

Sun Zhuo hit three three-pointers in a row, one of which was 3+1, and scored 10 points in a row, chasing the point difference to only 10 points! The clarion call for counterattack was sounded!

The audience was also extremely excited. This was the Sun Zhuo they were familiar with, the familiar scoring champion!

Sun Zhuo is about to start a counterattack. It's not certain who will win in this game, said Yu Jiada.

However, after being chased by Sun Zhuo for 10 consecutive points, the Heat did not call a timeout.

Pat Riley... Sun Zhuo glanced at the fortune teller curiously. This old guy was so confident that he wouldn't be suddenly overturned by Sun Zhuo?

Don't worry. Wade patted Anthony Walker and comforted him.

Subsequently, when the Heat attacked, they still handed the ball to O'Neal to play alone with Howard. After O'Neal got the ball, he did not dribble because Wade ran towards him. O'Neal passed the ball to Wade very covertly, allowing Wade to pass from him. Slip behind the baseline and hit the basket!

not good!

Seeing that Wade was about to successfully attack the basket, Sun Zhuo also went to cover up the defense, but Wade was too fast and immediately jumped up and dunked. Sun Zhuo reached out to block Wade a little too late. The two had a physical confrontation in the air, and Wade Under Sun Zhuo's defense, he dunked the ball into the basket!

Moreover, the referee blew the whistle and Sun Zhuo's thug fouled!
