This ball...
Lu Yusheng touched it!
There was nothing wrong with his prediction this time. Wade planned to challenge him directly.
Wade obviously didn't expect Lu Yusheng to react so quickly!
He hurriedly dribbled backwards to dodge, but Lu Yusheng had already touched the basketball, and the ball changed its direction and bounced backwards!
Wade suddenly lost control of the ball!
Lu Yusheng had quick eyes and quick hands and immediately rushed towards the ball!
Wade was unequivocal and immediately fell to the ground and rushed towards the ball!
After all, Wade was closer to the basketball. He controlled the ball first and got up quickly!
Lu Yusheng jumped into the air and stood up immediately without any hesitation!
The fans at Staples Center cheered for a while!
From the beginning of the third quarter, Lu Yusheng basically had no advantage when facing Wade.
But this young man has never flinched. He has always maintained a firm attitude and actively defended Wade. Even though he was knocked to the ground just now, he still persisted and took the initiative to face Wade!
His perseverance still moved the home fans at Staples Center.
Finally, in this round, he successfully prevented Wade's breakthrough. Although he did not successfully steal the ball just now, he had forced Wade to be very embarrassed.
Especially when Lu Yusheng leaned over to save the ball regardless of his own safety, the home fans were still moved by him and spontaneously applauded and cheered for him!
"Lu's defense was very good just now. He almost blocked Wade's breakthrough." William Jones said, "But this time, it's hard to say whether it was a fluke like the defense in the first quarter.
.
Wade was obviously not happy about Lu Yusheng's almost steal.
After all, I had already surpassed him for the whole game, so this kid must have predicted the ball just now by luck.
So Wade did not pass the ball, but readjusted and started dribbling, intending to continue to break through Lu Yusheng.
Lu Yusheng still acted as before, lowering his center of gravity, spreading his hands, and staring closely at Wade.
The audience at Staples Center began to applaud Lu Yusheng loudly!
Wade began to speed up the change of direction and adjust his pace.
This time, he still broke through quickly to the right!
But this time, even without the support of the system, Lu Yusheng could guess that this was a feint attack.
Therefore, Lu Yusheng just symbolically moved his steps to the right, but his center of gravity remained still.
Sure enough, Wade quickly pulled the ball back and then broke through to the left again!
Wade retreated and then changed hands to break through to the left. Wade almost did it in one go, without any pause, and the speed was so fast that it was almost in the blink of an eye!
It can be seen that Wade used his full strength this time.
Moreover, this time the breakthrough to the left has almost thrown away some of Lu Yusheng's body. If he continues to rush forward, it is very likely that Lu Yusheng will pass directly!
Lu Yusheng hurriedly moved to the right subconsciously.
However, Lu Yusheng's mind flashed with the idea that this was a feint attack.
Lu Yusheng quickly withdrew his focus!
Sure enough, Wade broke through to the left with this step. Although he was a few positions ahead of Lu Yusheng, Lu Yusheng had just predicted his fake move, so he did not lose his center of gravity. This positional lead was not enough to shake Lu Yusheng away.
, therefore, he quickly made another breakthrough to the right!
In Wade's opinion, with Lu Yusheng's level, he should have eaten the first fake move, but he didn't expect that this kid escaped by luck, but it didn't matter. Wade thought that with this second fake move, he was
A must eat.
After all, Lu Yusheng's lateral speed and defensive prediction level are only that high. Wade still knows this.
But what he didn't expect was that the next second, Lu Yusheng was still tightly in front of him!!
Moreover, this guy suddenly took out the ball just like last time!
Wade is shocked!
Dribble backwards quickly!
This ball is not broken!
It is naturally unrealistic for Lu Yusheng to steal Wade. After all, Lu Yusheng has just acquired this trick [anticipatory lateral movement defense] and is still very unfamiliar with it.
But Wade, who had been forced, had to retreat.
These two breakthroughs were unsuccessful and too much offensive time was wasted. Seeing that there was not enough time, Wade could only hold the ball and continue to play Lu Yusheng in singles.
But this time, there was no time for him to break through. Wade could only resist Lu Yuyu's defense from the outside and barely managed to shoot.
The iron is struck!
Regarding the defense of the ball just now, Lu Yusheng clearly felt the trick, that is, when his body instinctively makes defensive movements, he must try to control it so that his body's instinctive defensive reaction is not too big, otherwise he will wait until the system issues a high-level
When the defense is anticipating, it is difficult to withdraw.
It sounds simple, but in practice, it is still a bit difficult.
In fact, Lu Yusheng almost couldn't keep up with Wade's last fake move just now because his body's instinctive defensive reaction caused his center of gravity to deviate. If Wade had followed up with another move just now, Lu Yusheng would definitely not have been able to keep up.
Already.
Fortunately, Wade did not make any more moves. After all, in Wade's eyes, his defensive level was average, and he was not at a level that required him to make another fake move.
But the fans don’t know this at all. In their eyes, Lu Yusheng has successfully prevented Wade’s two sharp breakthroughs in this round!!
In this round of competition, the disadvantaged Lu Yusheng actually gained the upper hand!
The fans at Staples Center instantly cheered even louder!
In their eyes, this is not just as simple as a successful defense in one round, but also a spirit of perseverance in the face of a strong enemy and finally achieving success through unremitting persistence!
"This is really surprising," commentator William Jones exclaimed, "I didn't expect that at the critical moment of the game, Lu Yusheng, who had been helpless against Wade's breakthrough before, actually defended Wade twice in a row.
A breakthrough! Now Wade is under pressure. After all, after the first breakthrough failed, Wade did not choose to pass the ball, but continued to open a breakthrough, just to prove himself. But this time, actually
Failed again.”
"This is really a bit strange," Larry Bird also shook his head and said, "Just now he was obviously helpless against Wade, but this round, he suddenly turned around and defended quite well."
"Could it be?... He figured out the trick to guarding Wade while constantly guarding him?" William Jones said.
"This is impossible," Larry Bird said. "Wade's last breakthrough is completely different from the previous breakthroughs in rhythm and method. There are so many tricks to catch the breakthroughs of top players, maybe it is a fluke."
Bar."
Lu Yusheng successfully defended Wade's shot. Looking back, when the Lakers were attacking, Lu Yusheng used the mismatch after the pick-and-roll to break through Haslem again, creating a mid-range shot opportunity for Walton.
This attack and defense instantly reduced the score to single digits.
Pat Riley called a timeout.
"It seems that after the fourth quarter, both sides became more cautious. The Lakers just scored two goals and narrowed the point difference by four points. Pat Riley immediately called a timeout." William Jones.
said.
"No, Jones, you are wrong. Pat Riley's timeout was not because the Lakers scored in two offensive rounds, but because the Heat's two offensive rounds were defended by the Lakers. To be precise, it was
Wade's breakthrough was blocked by Lu, so their tactics did not work out, and more importantly, Shaq."
"Shaq?"
"That's right, Walton shot the Lakers' last ball just below the free throw line. At that position, O'Neal should have given Walton some interference, but Shaq didn't come out at all. I think, he should
It’s because I don’t have enough physical strength.”
Larry Bird said with some emotion, "In fact, from last season's finals, we can find that Shaq's physical strength is far less than when he was with the Lakers. It has to be said that time is for an athlete.
It’s really too cruel…”
…
The Zen master is arranging tactics.
"Kobe, after this timeout, you can start." Jackson said, "Guys, now it's time for us to win the game."
The Lakers players were a little unbelievable after hearing this. Can they win the game just by recovering two goals?
"Remember the tactics I laid out for you during the halftime break? Now, you can take them out." The Zen Master said, "Believe me, the victory in this game belongs to us."
Although everyone felt that Zen Master was a bit deceptive, since it was already the last moment, there was no harm in giving it a try.
"Lu, how is your physical strength?" the Zen master asked Lu Yusheng.
"I'm OK."
"Okay, let's continue fighting," said the Zen Master. "In the two rounds just now, I defended well."
"Thanks."
"Come on, remember what I told you, your performance is crucial in this game."
"Um."
Kobe Bryant came over and said to Lu Yusheng, "If Wade lets Payton come up for a pick-and-roll later, we don't need to switch defenses. Payton doesn't have a basket, so we can go back and go around the defense without switching defenses."
"It doesn't matter, I'll just guard him." Lu Yusheng said.
"No, listen to my arrangement. I admit that you did a great job on defense just now, but basketball can't just rely on luck." Kobe said.
Even Kobe believed that Lu Yusheng's defense just now was just a fluke.
Of course, Lu Yusheng does not blame Kobe, normal people would think so.
Lu Yusheng had no choice but to nod. Although he actually wanted to try to defend Wade again, since the boss arranged it like this, he could only do it.
On the Heat's side, Pat Riley said to Wade, "Wade, don't hesitate. The next tactics will be the same as before. Use your breakthrough to open up the situation. Don't feel any psychological pressure. That rookie guarded you just now."
It was just a fluke."
Wade nodded.
Pat Riley looked at O'Neal, "Shaq, do you want to take a rest?"
O'Neal was stunned and shook his head, "No, I've had enough rest time."
"good."
Patrielli hesitated to speak, but still didn't say anything.
With a whistle, the game continues!
Heat ball rights.
After Gary Payton dribbled the ball past half court, he handed it directly to Wade.
Of course, at this moment, Wade is no longer facing Vujacic, but Kobe.
So Payton immediately went up to pick and roll him, forcing Kobe and Lu Yusheng to switch defenses.
But Lu Yusheng and Kobe moved behind at the same time and had no intention of changing defense.
But seeing that the Lakers didn't switch defense, Payton once again came up to block Kobe. This time the screen was already on the three-point line, so Kobe and Lu Yusheng had to switch defenses. If they didn't switch defenses, Wade would just shoot.
Or Lu Yusheng faces Wade!
"It can be seen that Wade still intends to use Lu Lai as a breakthrough. He still wants to use his breakthrough to help the team solve problems! I wonder if Lu will still have the good luck this time and be able to prevent this ball." William Jones
said.
