236. Digging up the corner with a smile...
On May 9, the Wizards and the Heat continued to play in Miami.
In the honor list just announced by the league two days ago, Aldridge won the regular season MVP naturally became popular.
Although Aldridge's selection has a lot to do with the Wizards' record, it has to be said that with Ade being elected as the regular season MVP in the 11-12 season, no one dares to regard the Wizards as a grassroots team anymore.
After all, this Wizards not only have the regular season MVP, but also three of them were selected for the best team, and two of them were selected for the best defensive team. This specification is a perfect top combat power in any era.
It’s just that the rise of the wizards was too sudden, which shocked the outside world.
The Wizards were obviously a team that competed for the No. 1 pick last year, but this year the Wizards immediately turned into the biggest dark horse of the season.
Even in the semi-finals, he kept suppressing the Heat, which seemed to be quite like overthrowing the Heat's three giants. The contrast between the front and back is really huge.
This fourth game is still more important for the Heat. Otherwise, once the Wizards hold the match point 3:1, the Heat will be very passive in the next situation.
In this game, head coach Spo still sent a small lineup, and it seemed that he had completely given up his persistence in the center position.
And the winning of the last game also gave Spoel a hope and a hope to defeat the Wizards.
Even when the Heat learned that Aldridge was elected as the regular season MVP this season, the entire team atmosphere became obviously a bit depressing.
The Heat played very aggressively throughout the game. Wade even knew that there was a tiger in the mountain, but he was on the verge of the tiger mountain. He held the ball and rushed to the inside line again and again, and even if he used his body, he should try his best to cause damage.
The outstanding personal performance of the Big Three helped the Heat to lead the score until the end of the third quarter, and the Heat also led the Wizards with a slight advantage of three points.
But after returning in the fourth quarter, the Wizards, who were obviously more physically strong, took the lead in launching a counterattack.
Especially under the leadership of Crawford and Yao Ming, the Wizards not only quickly overtook the score, but also quickly helped the team establish a leading advantage.
Looking at the situation on the court, Heat head coach Spo was obviously a little anxious and directly replaced all the Big Three back on the court with more than eight minutes left in the fourth quarter. It seemed that he did not intend to let the Big Three continue to rest.
But even so, the Wizards, who are playing better and better on the offensive end, are still at an advantage.
Until the end of the game, the Wizards defeated the Heat with more abundant offensive firepower in the end with 8 points away, rewriting the total score of the series to 3:1.
While taking the lead in getting the match point, he forced the Heat to a desperate situation, which is truly unretreatable.
Aldridge, who just won the regular season MVP in this game, was obviously a little proud.
Aldridge played for a total of 33 minutes in the game. In 33 minutes of playing time, Aldridge made 10 of 17 shots, including 0 of 1 from outside the three-point line and 6 of 8 free throws, contributing 26 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists double-double data.
Before joining the Wizards this season, Aldridge's offensive stability has been at the forefront of the league.
But after joining the Wizards, Aldridge's mobile phone will be significantly better, thanks to his teammates' excellent offensive involvement, so that Aldridge can complete his shot more comfortably.
In addition, John Wall also played his best game since this round of the series. Wall scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists against Qianmos in the whole game.
The Wizards defeated the Heat without any danger and held the match point firmly in their hands.
In other people, Crawford and Yao Ming, who came on as substitute, were also excellent. They contributed 19 points, 3 steals, 14 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists respectively, which led to the second team to complete the counterattack.
With the victory of this game, the Wizards have become closer and closer to advancing, although theoretically speaking, the Heat are not without a chance to turn the tables.
But if the Heat want to complete a comeback in this round of the series from a practical perspective, the difficulty will definitely be very huge.
After all, the Wizards are currently in high morale, while the Heat are full of frustration everywhere. In terms of mentality, the Heat have already lost the competition.
…………………
In the fifth game, the two teams returned to Washington to fight, but in the end, the Heat still managed to win the victory with the three giants' desperate efforts.
Grasp the total score of the series to 2:3 and continue to struggle.
The Heat's three giants teamed up to score 92 points in the whole game, including Bosh's 37 points, 14 rebounds and 6 assists, and all three data set a new high in this round of series.
Yang Fan was not surprised by Chris Bosh's extraordinary performance. After all, after the Wizards also changed to a small lineup, Aldridge had to fight with Bosh at the center position.
And when most of the focus is placed on the offensive end, it is naturally difficult for Ade to ensure that both offense and defense are performing well.
After the game, Yang Fan did not blame the players, but kept cheering for the players and trying to send the Heat home to fish in the next game.
…………………
On May 13, the Wizards who were away from Miami did not give the Heat any chance. In this crucial game, the Wizards' firepower was fully launched, and the main players' playing time was also greatly increased by Yang Fan.
In the end, with the Wizards' outstanding and stable offensive firepower, the Heat lost 21 points to the Wizards at home and had to face the scene of being eliminated 2:4.
After the game, the Heat were obviously a little depressed, especially the expressions of the Big Three, who sat off the court like puppets who lost their souls.
As for head coach Spo, although he looked helpless, he was very open-minded when hugging Yang Fan.
"I have really tried hard, but it was the ending in the end. It seems that my head coach has really sat down, hey."
"You are very strong. This time I recognize you from the bottom of my heart. I hope you can lead the wizards to create miracles all the way."
"I can feel a little psychological comfort in this way." After the hug, Spo shook his head helplessly, but still sent blessings to Yang Fan.
"Don't be too upset, Eric, you've done a great job. After all, not everyone dares to coach the Big Three."
"Believe me, you're just missing a little luck, that's all."
"Don't worry, if the Heat really fire you in the offseason, then you can come to me at any time."
"I mean, if you don't dislike it, then I will keep the position of Chief Assistant Coach for you at any time."
