With 5 minutes left in the third quarter, the Heat were already 30 points behind.
Although Jimmy Butler is known as the toughest killer in the world, he is still alone at this time.
At this time, Heat coach Spoelstra finally thought of Doug Laimbeer.
In fact, it was not something he took the initiative to think of, but that no other center was available during this period, leaving only Doug Laimbeer.
In almost despair, he became the water fountain keeper.
After Doug Laimbeer came on the court, he worked hard in the paint, grabbed rebounds, defended hard, and blocked shots.
He single-handedly completely froze Homs.
This made Coach Spoelstra's eyes light up.
But this is not enough.
He had some doubts as to whether he had let him play too late.
But in Doug Laimbeer's opinion, he has not given up at all.
What does grabbing a few rebounds and blocking a few shots count?
Do you think this is all I can do?
This is just an appetizer.
He has only one target, and that is Wang Yi.
When Wang Yi shook off the defender and shot from beyond the three-point line, Doug Laimbeer jumped in to cover.
Of course, his speed cannot stop Wang Yi from shooting.
But stopping shots is not his purpose.
He stretched out his arm, seemingly to block the shot, but his right foot directly touched Wang Yi's foot.
Naturally, Wang Yi also had some knowledge of Doug Laimbeer and knew that this guy played dirty, so when he shot a three-pointer, he had already spread his legs.
In the previous game against the Warriors, Green tried to step on him many times, but Wang Yi used this move to avoid him.
However, what Wang Yi did not expect was.
Even though he had spread his legs, his right foot still happened to step on Doug Laimbeer's left foot when he fell.
In fact, when Wang Yi was studying other players, Doug Laimbeer was also studying Wang Yi.
Especially after entering the finals, when Doug Laimbeer knew that he might face Wang Yi, he focused on studying Wang Yi.
He knew that Wang Yi would spread his legs to avoid the opponent's players when he fell, so he made a prediction in advance and placed his feet exactly where Wang Yi fell.
Fortunately, although he stepped on Doug Laimbeer's foot, he was not injured.
But it also served as a reminder to Wang Yi.
This guy is more than a step above Green.
So the next time he shot, the guy jumped out. Wang Yi didn't spread his legs anymore, but fell back with his upper body.
In this way, the foot will not be subject to much force when it falls on his foot, and naturally it will not be injured.
Doug Laimbeer couldn't beat Wang Yi, but he was not frustrated.
On the contrary, he found it more challenging.
If Wang Yi cannot be compensated, he has other ways.
When Wang Yi made the next layup, he rushed over to help defend.
When the two were about to come into physical contact, he directly aimed his iron-like elbow at Wang Yi's abdomen.
At the same time, he moved his face to meet Wang Yi's elbow.
When Wang Yi's elbow was about to hit his face, his head had already begun to move back, so that Wang Yi's elbow only lightly rubbed against his face, while his elbow was knotted.
It pressed firmly against Wang Yi's abdomen.
They both fell to the ground at the same time.
Wang Yi's body was bent like a shrimp due to the elbow, and he clutched his abdomen in pain.
Ranbir covered his face with his left hand, screaming in pain, and at the same time, he slapped the floor heavily with his right hand.
The referee gave Wang Yi an offensive foul.
The basis for the penalty was that Wang Yi's elbow hit Ranbir in the face.
According to NBA rules, as long as your hand or elbow hits your opponent above the neck, you will be whistled for a foul, whether intentional or unintentional.
When the referee made such a penalty, Doug Laimbeer immediately stood up.
There was no expression of pain on his face.
And when he passed by Wang Yi, he said to Wang Yi: "Your acting skills are not good, brother."
At this time, everyone knew that this guy was acting, but the referee had already made a penalty and it was impossible to change it immediately.
Wang Yi lay on the ground and rested for a while. When his abdomen no longer hurt, he stood up.
A moment later, when Wang Yi came up, he was choked again by this guy.
He stretched out his long arms, crossing Wang Yi's attack route like an iron chain across the river.
When Wang Yi was breaking through at high speed, he was stopped like this, just like when he was riding a motorcycle and suddenly hit a tree trunk lying on the road.
The whole person fell directly on his back to the ground.
Such a foul made the audience extremely dissatisfied.
However, after 5 minutes of review, the referee only gave him a common foul.
This seems incredible.
The referee's explanation was that Doug Laimbeer went for the ball.
Judging from the replay, he indeed stretched his arm to reach the ball in Wang Yi's right hand, but inadvertently blocked Wang Yi's neck with his arm.
The audience at the scene was very dissatisfied with this penalty, and the black whistle sounded again in the audience.
But even so, Doug Laimbeer still chased the referee with his hands spread out: "What? Is this also called a foul?"
Wang Yi already knew how dirty this guy was at this time.
When it comes to how dirty the ball is, this guy is more than one level above Green.
If Green is a diamond, this guy is a king.
After these two fouls, Doug Laimbeer felt that Wang Yi had begun to fear him, and he would never dare to rush in for a layup again.
However, what he never expected was that Wang Yi suddenly scored again on the next goal.
Moreover, Wang Yi dunked him.
Not only did he dunk him, but during the dunk, Wang Yi's knee directly hit his chest hard.
He was knocked to the ground and couldn't catch his breath for a long time.
However, because Wang Yi's knee really hit Granbill's chest, his shot was disallowed and he was given an offensive foul.
Doug Laimbeer was lying on the ground as the team doctor came up to ask about his condition.
His first words were: "Is it an offensive foul?"
The team doctor was stunned: "Yeah."
"Well done!"
He endured the huge pain in his chest and stood up.
As long as the referee can call Wang Yi a foul, even if his nose is smashed like Green and his face is bleeding, he is willing to do so.
Having said that, after Green had his nose smashed by Wang Yi, he seemed to be avoiding Wang Yi.
Doug Laimbeer scoffed.
It's ridiculous that such a Green is called a tough guy.
Next, Wang Yi and Doug Laimbeer engaged in various overt and covert struggles.
Obviously the two were playing ball, but secretly they were engaging in various thrilling battles.
Doug Laimbeer punched Wang Yi in the abdomen, and Wang Yi hit him hard on the ribs with his elbow.
Doug Laimbeer hit Wang Yi in the mouth, and Wang Yi gave him a hard blow on the nose.
The two refused to give in to each other.
This surprised even Doug Laimbeer.
He has been playing this way since high school. As long as his opponents are beaten by him once or twice, they will basically go around him.
He enjoyed this feeling very much.
No matter how big a star the star is, do you still have to walk around me on the court?
But Wang Yi was not afraid of him at all.
Whatever he did to Wang Yi, Wang Yi would repay him in full.
Even more ruthless than him.
But Doug Laimbeer is also a ruthless man.
Wang Yi's counterattack not only did not scare him, but instead aroused his ferocity.
And he has more experience playing like this than Wang Yi.
I have been studying this kind of thing for more than ten years in playing golf.
Wang Yi was just improvising, so naturally he couldn't compare with him.
Although the two elbows were almost the same.
But when Wang Yi makes some big moves, he can easily get caught with a foul.
And this guy is able to make reasonable use of the rules of the game and also takes advantage of the blind spots in the referee's field of vision to commit evil crimes.
When it was replayed on the big screen, the fans realized how dirty this guy was.
But that's the way the NBA is. As long as the referee on duty doesn't whistle, the game will continue.
So when there was one minute left in the third quarter, Wang Yi had committed his fourth foul.
At this time, the score difference was still 27 points.
Chapter completed!
