Chapter 433 Tianwang Mountain(1/22)
At about 6 p.m. on June 2, US time, the Phillips Arena was packed with people and full of people. Tens of thousands of fans were wearing Hawks fans, with excited smiles on their faces.
Eagles fans arrived at the stadium early before the game began.
This game is the fifth match between the Hawks and Heats in the Eastern Conference Finals. In the first four games, the two sides tied 2:2.
This series was very exciting. After the Hawks got a good start at home, they actually lost two games in a row. Fortunately, they took away a victory in the Heat's home court, the American Airlines Arena.
The Hawks' starting lineup in this game is still the same as in the previous games, with center Al Horford, power forward Josh Smith, small forward Marvin Williams, shooting guard Cork Hinrich, and organizational defender Wu Feng.
Al Horford jumped to Chris Bosh, and the Hawks took the lead in getting the ball. Wu Feng protected the ball and adjusted the rhythm before dribbling the ball quickly toward the Heat's halftime. When Wu Feng just dribbled the ball and passed the halftime, Dwyne Wade had already appeared in front of him.
In the last game, Dwyne Wade was injured and left the field. After two days of treatment and resting, he returned to the battlefield.
Wu Feng was also very happy about this. Wu Feng did not stick to the ball at all and quickly passed the ball out.
After Cork Hinrich responded to Wu Feng, he passed the ball back to Wu Feng's hand.
At this time, the player facing Wu Feng had become Mario Chalmos. Mario Chalmos did not expect Wu Feng to start so quickly, and quickly set up a defensive posture within the three-point line. His eyes stared at Wu Feng tightly, and did not dare to slack off at all. With a "squeak", Wu Feng's body, which was starting at high speed, stopped a step outside the three-point line. His toes and the floor instantly made a fierce friction sound, without stopping at all. His body jumped up, raised the ball high, and pushed his hands gently, and the ball quickly flew out of his fingers. "Swish", the ball was caught in the net. After landing, Wu Feng clenched his right fist, paused hard in front of his chest, and roared "Ah". Seeing this, Mario Chalmos could only shake his head in great annoyance.
In the first few games, he was also very helpless about Wu Feng's strong play that uses his super physical fitness. The Heat's offense and defense were quickly converted, and soon, all of their players came to the frontcourt. "Little Emperor" James had a very outstanding overall view and was top in the position of small forward.
After James got the ball, he quickly found Wade, who was out of stock, so the ball was passed to the latter immediately.
Dwyne Wade tangled towards the basket head-on, and before Al Horford made up for defense, he threw the ball high. With a "swish", the shot hit. Wu Feng cleverly slipped through the baseline, then received a pass from Marvin Williams, and scored another 2 points on the layup. He scored 4 points in the beginning. Wu Feng showed a strong desire to attack.
The Heat's "Flash" Wade did not seem to be affected by the injury in the previous game. He played very proactively at the beginning of the game and was very striking. Under the mobilization of Dwayne Wade, the Heat played a 7-2 climax. In this first quarter, the Hawks' offense made Larry Drew a little dissatisfied. Not only did Cork Hinrich and Marvin Williams no longer have the feel of the first two games, but even Al Horford, who was inside, also had a
They missed the shots. If it weren't for Wu Feng and Josh Smith's condition. It is estimated that before the first quarter, the Hawks would be behind the Heat's score difference of more than double digits. When they reached four minutes and forty-one seconds in the first quarter, the Hawks were 7 points behind the Heat with 13:20. Then, Mario Chalmos assisted Dwyane Wade to hit a three-pointer, and the Heat quickly changed the score to 23:13, leading the Hawks by 10 points.
Larry Drew had to ask for a timeout. In the previous game, the team not only failed to play the offense they were good at, but also lacked on the defensive end. In this timeout, Larry Drew redeployed the tactics of both offense and defense. On the defensive end, it mainly defended the Heat's outside three-pointer. The Heat's three-pointer just now was too scary, and even Chris Bosh made a three-pointer.
The tactics on the offensive end are very simple. Use Wu Feng's breakthrough to create opportunities for his teammates. The task of other players is to find opportunities through continuous running positions.
This game is a battle at Tianwangshan. Whoever wins will win the match point of this round of series.
Therefore, both teams fought tonight, showing off their 200% fighting spirit to fight against their opponents. Taking advantage of this timeout, Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra made minor adjustments to the lineup, and Mike Miller replaced Dwyane Wade.
After all, Wade was injured in the last game and should not play for too long, so he still needs to pay attention to the Hawks' ball rights. Wu Feng used Cork Hinrich's cover to hit a three-pointer with a forty-five-degree angle on the left.
This position is the position with the highest three-point shooting percentage of Wu Feng. Generally speaking, each team will focus on defense and shoot three-pointers from this position.
After all, Wu Feng is already a top star, and his technical characteristics are gradually being understood by various teams. In the rest of the first quarter, the Heat, led by the Little Emperor James, made a beautiful offense. All six players on the Heat, including Dwayne Wade, who just got off the court, scored points. On the Hawks, there were fewer scoring points. Except for Wu Feng's normal feel, the other players were not in good condition. Therefore, at the end of the first quarter, the Hawks were 9 points behind the Heat 21-30.
After the first quarter, Hawks head coach Larry Drew patiently explained the various problems that occurred in the first quarter, and then encouraged them to mobilize the players to play well and never give up the game. Soon, the second quarter began, and the ball was in the hands of the Heat. Mario Chalmos quickly brought the ball through the midfield. When his eyes were swept to his teammates, Marvin Williams had quickly appeared beside him, and the target was the ball in his hand. Mario Chalmos was not worried, but just turned around and flashed through his steal. Chris Boshra reached the free throw line to block the gap, and then Mario Chalmos finished
The line broke through and passed the ball, and the ball quickly flew to the weak side Dwayne Wade. Fortunately, Wu Feng's defense was very timely. Before he took the ball, Wu Feng's ghostly figure appeared in front of him. The amazing explosive power made Wu Feng come from behind and gently touch the basketball with his fingertips. Although it was not a very shocking block, this little force was enough to make the ball's flight trajectory change slightly. "Clang", the basketball hit the basketball's neck, and Marvin Williams grabbed the defensive rebound. Marvin Williams' right wing three-pointer missed. Al Horford was tightly stuck behind him by Chris Bosh, watching Udunis Haslem take the rebound.
Then, Haslem quickly passed the ball to James. James' domineering footsteps directly against Marvin Williams' defense and dunked. Marvin Williams's ball was almost cut off by Dwyne Wade. Fortunately, Wu Feng had some advantage in speed and hit the ball first. However, he also breathed a sigh of relief. Controlling the ball rhythmically, Wu Feng told himself in his heart that the critical moment had arrived and the difference between the two teams had widened to 11 points. However, the 11-point difference was not what Wu Feng was worried about. What he was worried about was the morale of the Hawks. Slowly passing the ball through the half, Mario Chalmos and Dwyne Wade appeared in front of him one after another. This time Wu Feng did not rush to break through or pass the ball.
As Wu Feng wandered around the outside, the two Heat's defensive players had to keep following his pace. The entire Phillips Arena focused on Wu Feng.
"Pa" "Pa", the basketball kept changing hands under Wu Feng's crotch, and the speed became faster and faster. As the ball hit the floor, Mario Chalmos' heart trembled, and his attention was not dared to relax at all. Looking at Wu Feng's ready-to-run body, he knew that Wu Feng's attack could be completed in the blink of an eye. Wu Feng had a look and Josh Smith knew what to do. Before Josh Smith was fully in place, Wu Feng started at full speed. After Wu Feng started at full speed, Mario Chalmos quickly followed. At his speed, he could completely keep up with Wu Feng. But when he wanted to make up for Wu Feng, a flesh wall blocked him. "Damn it." Mario Chalmos naturally knew that someone was blocking Wu Feng's speed.
Demolition. Dwayne Wade, who was slowing down, naturally could not catch up with Wu Feng who broke through at full speed, and could not even cause a foul. He could only watch Wu Feng and drill into the penalty area. At this time, there were two big players at the Heat's basket. After Wu Feng passed Mario Chalmos, they were ready to defend. Wu Feng did not seem to want to send the ball into the basket in person. After the man entered the free throw line, the ball passed out and handed it to Al Horford in the inside. The man quickly passed by Al Horford. Al Horford did not turn around and take action, but gently swung to the left. His ball was very hidden. After Wu Feng received the ball, he used Al Horford's block to easily shoot. A pass error from the Heat.
Wu Feng easily intercepted the ball, and a long pass helped Cork Hinrich hit a three-pointer. Mario Chalmos, Chris Bosh's blocking gap won the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, but the ball went out of the basket. Al Horford instantly pushed Chris Bosh out at the basket and easily took the rebound off. Then, Wu Feng and Marvin Williams cooperated, the former assisted the latter and dunked. Seeing this scene, Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra sighed and finally called a timeout. For a while, the Heat's players seemed to be unable to find the basket. After Wu Feng's wonderful score, the Hawks seemed to gradually find the feeling of attack and played a small high of 8:2. The two sides fought to 29:32.
The gap has been narrowed to 3 points. Larry Drew was naturally very satisfied with the players' performance just now, especially the two players, Coke Hinrich and Marvin Williams, whose performance has improved significantly during this period. After the timeout, the Heat's lineup changed again. Ronnie Turiaff, Chris Bosh, LeBron James, Sean Bathir and Mario Chalmos formed a new lineup, which is obviously a lineup with better defense. In fact, Dwyane Wade's defensive ability is very excellent, but because he was injured in the last game, Eric Spoelstra is now a frightened bird. He dare not let him play for too long, so naturally he will not waste his energy on the defensive end.
There was no problem with the Heat's offense just now, but the sudden outbreak of other Hawks players made the Heat's defense very chaotic. Therefore, Eric Spoelstra wanted to strengthen the team's defense. On the Hawks, Anthony Morrow also replaced Cork Hinrich. When the first half ended, the Hawks gradually caught up with the score due to their strength in the second half of the second quarter. At this time, they were only 5 points behind the Heat at 52:57. Although the Hawks are still behind, the situation on the field is now balanced. In this regard, both head coach Larry Drew and tens of thousands of fans on the scene are acceptable.
…………
With a "swish", Wu Feng made a wonderful pass from Anthony Morrow in the bottom corner, and the latter hit his second three-pointer in the quarter. At this time, the third quarter had been playing for a while.
