Chapter 430(1/2)
Chris Bosh was about to reach a good position at the low post and reached out to Dwyne Wade for the ball, who passed the ball to Chris Bosh without hesitation.
Al Horford misplaced defending Chris Bosh, but the latter easily shook away Al Horford. However, after seeing Josh Smith who came back to defend, Chris Bosh was not panicked at all, but handed the ball to Udunis Haslem and then inserted it to the other side.
Then the ball returned to Chris Bosh, who used Udunis Haslem's cover to dunk and scored 2 points.
Wu Feng organized the attack, and Cork Hinrich pulled to the top of the arc to receive the ball. He held the ball with one hand and spaned forward with his right foot. Cork Hinrich instantly broke into the opponent's inside line.
Seeing that the opponent implemented a double-team strategy, Cork Hinrich waved his hand and the ball reached Marvin Williams's hand outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right.
Perhaps it was because the game was just beginning, and the touch was not fully warmed up. Marvin Williams' three-pointer hit the rebound and was won by Udunis Haslem, who was standing under the basket.
Dwyne Wade took the ball, and cheers suddenly rang out from all the fans of the court.
Wade has made great contributions to winning the Heat in the last two games, even more than James. Therefore, the home fans cheered at Wade at this moment.
Dwyne Wade passed the midfield slowly. Facing Wu Feng's defense, Dwyne Wade rushed in from Wu Feng's right side. When Wu Feng reacted, he bumped into a black figure. It turned out that it was Chris Bosh who stepped forward to pick-and-roll.
Using Chris Bosh's pick-and-roll, Dwyne Wade broke through and scored a goal after killing the basket.
Wu Feng dribbled the ball. After half the game, when Al Horford was about to get in place, he passed the ball to Al Horford and attacked the position.
Al Horford forced Chris Bosh to play, but did not choose to take action, but handed the ball to Josh Smith on the other side. At this time, Udunis Haslem was stuck behind Josh Smith's strong body. Therefore, after Josh Smith received the ball, he pushed back and made a layup, but the ball actually bounced out of the basket, and Chris Bosh grabbed the backcourt rebound.
Wu Feng looked at Dwayne Wade in front with a serious expression. No one could underestimate Dwayne Wade's strength. In these two defeats to the Heat, Wade's top superstar's ability was demonstrated.
Wu Feng tried his best to defend Dwayne Wade, but what he didn't expect was that he had clearly felt Dwayne Wade's breakthrough line, but he was still broken through by Dwayne Wade.
After Dwyne Wade broke into the inside, he did not choose to pass the ball when facing Al Horford's backup defense, but instead made a very strange shooting method after physical contact with Al Horford.
The ball hit the whistle, Al Horford made a defensive foul, and Dwyne Wade easily added the penalty. Two plus one hit.
In the following game, the Heat took some initiative.
Chris Bosh and Udunis Haslem successfully played in the inside, Dwyne Wade's breakthroughs were repeatedly made on the outside, and LeBron James also made long shots in a row.
On the other hand, the Hawks made no progress in offense except for Marvin Williams who made a mid-range jump shot, Wu Feng made a layup, and Cork Hinrich made a three-pointer, the Hawks made no progress in offense.
With four minutes and fifteen seconds left in the first quarter, the Hawks trailed their opponent by 5 points 15:20, and Larry Drew finally couldn't sit still and shouted a timeout.
After the timeout, Larry Drew made partial adjustments to the Hawks' roster. Because Al Horford made two fouls in the previous match against Chris Bosh, and was unable to curb Chris Bosh's performance, Al Horford was replaced by Zaza Pachulia.
In contrast, the Heat's lineup has changed a lot. Mario Chalmos, the only player who did not score in the starting lineup, was replaced by Norris Cole, Udunis Haslem was replaced by Juwan Howard, and LeBron James was replaced by James Jones.
After the game started again, Zaza Pachulia made great contributions to the team.
Zaza Pachulia first blocked Zhu Wan Howard's layup, then took over Wu Feng's wonderful pass, and made a quick pass.
Before the game, Wu Feng swore that he must defend Dwayne Wade in this game. At the beginning, Wu Feng may not have adjusted his condition.
When Larry Drew called for a timeout, Wu Feng found his rhythm. In the following offense, Wu Feng indeed strengthened his defense against Dwayne Wade, making him fail to make two consecutive mid-range shots.
Zaza Pachulia grabbed the backcourt rebound and turned around and threw the ball into the frontcourt. Wu Feng and Marvin Williams were already running, and no player on the Heat chased after him to defend. With no defense, Wu Feng and Marvin Williams made an all-match cooperation, and Marvin Williams dunked the ball into the basket very beautifully.
Naturally, the two perfect all-in-one cooperation won the cheers of Jeff Teague and others on the Hawks bench.
Dwyne Wade took the ball and slowly passed the half-time, and came outside the three-point line facing the basket. Facing Wu Feng's defense, he accelerated and wanted to pass the opponent.
However, Wu Feng's defense is very strong, his steps are extremely flexible, and his agility is also excellent, so he did not allow Dwayne Wade to break through the past.
Looking at the posture Wu Feng was posing, Dwayne Wade was not careless. He made a step down in front of Wu Feng and then inserted it into it. Compared with speed, Wu Feng was naturally not Dwayne Wade's opponent, but Wu Feng was due to his agility. Therefore, Wu Feng could still keep up with Dwayne Wade's speed with all his strength.
Dwayne Wade dribbled with his right hand, suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Wu Feng's right side, then stopped in front of Wu Feng and suddenly changed direction. Wu Feng's defense was really hard, but Dwayne Wade was really unstoppable.
As we all know, the "Flash" Wade's steps are extremely sharp and varied. Therefore, despite Wu Feng's concentration, he was successfully broken through by Dwayne Wade. After getting rid of Wu Feng's defense, Dwayne Wade directly stopped and jumped, and the ball made a "swish" sound and entered the basket.
Slowly dribbling, Dwayne Wade in front of him half-squatted down to defend Wu Feng, and Wu Feng was also slowly pushing forward. Every time he stepped forward, Dwayne Wade took a step back and kept a gap of about one step. This could not only prevent Wu Feng from breaking through, but also prevent Wu Feng from shooting. However, Wu Feng did not have a breakthrough, nor did he shoot.
Wu Feng's excellent vision. Naturally, when Cork Hinrich was cutting and running to the basket, Wu Feng suddenly made a striking pass. Dwayne Wade tried to intercept the ball, but failed. The ball had already appeared in the hands of Cork Hinrich behind him. Cork Hinrich made a layup easily.
When the Hawks defended, they forced the Heat to make a mistake, and the ball rights returned to the Hawks.
Wu Feng's killing at the basket caused Chris Bosh's defensive foul and two free throws.
When Wu Feng scored the first free throw, both sides took advantage of this opportunity to make some adjustments to the lineup.
Wu Feng made both free throws, and then retreated back to defend with his teammates.
On the Heat, Wade made two more jump shots.
It was still the Hawks' offense, and Wu Feng organized the offense after receiving the ball. Using Anthony Morrow's pick-and-roll, Wu Feng got rid of Dwyne Wade's close-fitting defense and rushed to the basket.
Although the defense is not strong, Wu Feng did not choose to attack. Instead, he glanced at him and saw McGrady in the open space on the outside. So Wu Feng passed the ball to McGrady without hesitation. After the latter received the ball, he meowed and threw the ball out. The arc that the basketball drew in the air was beautiful, and with a "swish", the ball entered.
On the Hawks' bench, Jeff Teague stood up excitedly and cheered for his teammates.
Dwyne Wade attacked with the ball, but did not choose to break through, but directly hung the ball to the inside. Ronnie Turiaf squatted on the spot and pushed Zaza Pachulia. Zaza Pachulia took a step back by him. It was this step that made Ronnie Turiaf turn around, jump up on the spot, and easily dunked.
With less than two minutes left in the first quarter, Wu Feng was replaced by Jeff Teague.
When there were only eighteen seconds left in the first quarter, the Hawks had only one last chance to attack. Jeff Teague held the ball steadily and tried to slow down the pace. After all, there were only eighteen seconds left. When there were eight seconds left, Jeff Teague moved.
Jeff Teague broke through and passed the ball, and the ball was given to McGrady. But at this moment, McGrady made a mistake in receiving the ball, and the ball was cut off by James Jones. James Jones threw the ball towards the Hawks halftime, and Dwyne Wade was already running towards the other side.
Jeff Teague desperately chased Dwyne Wade, but it was useless. After receiving the ball, Dwyne Wade rushed into the opponent's free throw line and flew up. Then, the ball was poured into the basket by Dwyne Wade, and Dwyne Wade hung his hands on the ring.
With three seconds left, McGrady missed a long shot after receiving a pass from Jeff Teague, and the first quarter ended.
The first quarter ended with McGrady's long shot, and the players on the field walked towards the bench one after another, preparing to rest and fight.
The big screen of the American Airlines Arena gave the score of the two teams after the first quarter. 33:26, the Heat, who played at home, led the opponent by 7 points.
Of the 33 points the Heat scored, Dwyne Wade contributed 14 points alone and had 3 assists, which was the best in the team.
On the other hand, Wu Feng, who faced him, performed well.
Wu Feng scored 11 points and 5 assists, and the Hawks scored at least 21 points have a direct or indirect relationship with him.
The second quarter is about to begin soon, and the players on both sides have returned to the court one after another.
The Heat, Dwyne Wade came out, and Mario Chalmos was replaced. The Hawks' lineup also changed, Wu Feng replaced McGrady.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Hawks attacked first.
After halftime, Wu Feng immediately passed the ball to Jeff Teague, who was standing at the 45-degree angle of the right wing outside the three-point line. After receiving the ball, the latter protected the ball to the right side of the waist and lowered his waist to prepare for a breakthrough.
Jeff Teague passed the ball to Wu Feng who cut in the air, and Wu Feng held the ball and rushed to the basket. Facing Ronnie Turiavroni Turiav Wu Feng did not attack, but chose to pass the ball.
He cleverly stuffed the ball through Ronnie Turiaf's armpit. Radmanovic, who was behind, took the ball and hit it hard and dunked it into the basket.
With a "bang", Radmanovich violently gave the Heat a dunk.
With Radmanovic's inspiring dunk, the Hawks scored 6 points in a row, giving their opponent a 6:0 small **.
The Eagles' offense is quite smooth, at least now.
In the subsequent attacks, the Hawks made three consecutive attacks. The score was gradually approaching. The Heat's several consecutive attacks failed, giving the Hawks a good chance.
Larry Drew stood on the sidelines and his nervous mood suddenly relaxed a lot. At present, the team's offense is obviously much better than in the first quarter.
Except for Jeff Teague, who may not have found a touch because he had just played for a while and had a low hit rate, the other people were in very good condition.
Wu Feng controlled the rhythm on the field well. When facing Mario Chalmos' defense, Wu Feng was always able to use his own breakthrough to cause great damage to the Heat.
The first goal that the Hawks scored at the beginning of the second quarter was from his wonderful pass after the breakthrough. Two teammates from the inside line, Zaza Pachulia and Radmanovic also performed well. Especially Zaza Pachulia, his defense greatly limited the Heat's performance in the inside line.
With 8 minutes and 31 seconds left in the second quarter, the game entered the official timeout, and the Hawks were only 4 points behind their opponents.
Larry Drew was very satisfied with the players' performance, so he gave them the praise to them without hesitation.
Soon, the pause time ended and the game continued.
Jeff Teague made a mid-range shot in an open position, but the basketball hit the ring and bounced high. Several long men in the basket flew up to grab the rebound, but at this moment, the referee's whistle rang, and Chris Bosh made a foul when he grabbed the rebound.
Chris Bosh argued with the referee very dissatisfiedly, but he did not let the referee change the referee's decision with a heart. Chris Bosh walked to the side in depression and kept talking.
The referee saw that Chris Bosh was still complaining that the penalty was unfair. So he immediately gave him a technical foul so that he could calm down.
This result directly led to Eric Spoelstra who could only replace Chris Bosh with Ronnie Turiaf, and Chris Bosh went to the bench with great dissatisfaction.
The Heat's inside strength was greatly reduced at this moment, and now the situation on the field suddenly turned into a completely advantage in the Hawks' inside.
Wu Feng faced Mario Chalmos' defense. He couldn't feel too much pressure at all. After receiving the ball, he turned around and threw away Mario Chalmos' defense. Wu Feng first made a layup, and then even made a three-pointer in front of Mario Chalmos.
In less than a minute, he scored 5 points. After Jeff Teague, who came on the bench, found the rhythm, his hands were even hot. His two consecutive three-pointers after he came on the court forced the Heat to enter the timeout early.
After the timeout, the Heat replaced Dwyane Wade again, while Chris Bosh and Udunis Haslem were still resting off the court, while Ronnie Turiaf was LeBron James.
On the Hawks' side, Zaza Pachulia was replaced by Al Horford.
The game continued, and the Heat's ball was the one who controlled the ball. Dwyne Wade, who re-played Dwyne Wade, continued his stable performance with a stunning performance.
The Flash not only had a good feel on the outside, but also repeatedly entered the Hawks' inside line and completed the attack. Within two minutes, he scored 7 points with one shot and scored 7 points, and led the team to withstand the Hawks' counterattack.
In just a few minutes, the situation on the court changed tremendously. The Hawks once narrowed the score and even quickly overtook the score, but under the continuous impact of Dwyne Wade, the score was pulled apart again.
Wu Feng received a pass from Jeff Teague and made a move to break through. As soon as Dwyne Wade moved his center of gravity, he made a jump shot, and with a "swish" hit, Wu Feng clenched his fists.
Of course, Dwyne Wade would not show weakness. He turned around and took advantage of Sean Bathier's cover and took action when he received the ball, and the basketball passed through the ring again.
The basketball came to Jeff Teague's hands. Before Jeff Teague could do the next move, Mario Chalmos posted it up.
Jeff Teague stepped forward and suddenly changed his steps, blocking Mario Chalmos behind him.
Jeff Teague was very patient. After making a fake move, he wanted to break through along the baseline, but Mario Chalmos did not give up. He followed Jeff Teague's footsteps firmly, leaving him without a chance to shoot.
