The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 265 Match Point

The victory in the first game made Wang Xiao very satisfied, and in the second game that followed, the Wizards continued to use the tactics of the previous game, chasing and intercepting James.

After the last confrontation, Leonard performed even better in the second game, and even successfully limited James' shooting rate to less than 50%, which is rare for James.

Meanwhile, Curry exploded.

From the beginning of the playoffs to the present, Curry's performance has not been very good. Although he can score 25 points per game for the team, his shots and shooting percentage are not as good as those who won the MVP in the regular season. Less, and it is incomparable with James who averaged 30+ points per game on the other side.

But as the saying goes, who doesn’t eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? What's more, Curry is the player who won the regular season MVP for two consecutive years and is one of the best players in the league.

In the game against the Celtics, Curry broke out in one game, feeling overwhelmed, no matter how much he shot, and almost surrendered the Celtics at halftime.

In this game, Curry's burst of firepower was no less than that at that time.

In the first quarter of the game, Curry scored 4 three-pointers, plus hitting the basket and free throws, scoring 18 points in a single quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Curry hit 3 more three-pointers and scored 12 points again.

With 30 points in the half, the Heat were almost terrified, and the score between the two sides had opened up by 20 points at halftime.

62:42.

In the third quarter, Curry's firepower dropped slightly, but the Heat failed to recover the score. Even with the outbreak of the Wizards' bench, the point difference further widened, almost reaching more than 30 points.

In the fourth quarter, the Heat gave up the game after a symbolic struggle.

The final score was fixed at 121:97, and the Heat lost again by 24 points.

Lost 26 points in the first game and 24 points in the second game. Adding up the two games, the Heat lost to the Wizards by 50 points. This does not seem to be a close game.

In the two games, the Heat's rebounding was completely overwhelmed by the Wizards. The Wizards' shortcomings in the regular season seemed to have become their strengths at this time, and McGee, who did not average double figures in rebounds per game in the regular season, also He has become a rebounding idiot, averaging 14 rebounds per game.

When the game ended, not many media supported the Heat's elimination of the Wizards. The focus of people's attention has changed from who can win to whether the Heat will be directly swept out by the Wizards in shame. After all, there are two teams in two games The gap shown is really too big.

"Although the Heat have a luxurious Big Three lineup, in the game, only Wade can help James. Even Bosh struggled in the game, let alone other role players."

"In contrast, the young people on the Wizards side played in an orderly manner. They had a clear division of labor, cooperated with each other, and played wonderful team basketball. This seems to prove once again that basketball is not a sport for one person... Now maybe this The sentence can be changed to: Basketball is not a sport for one or two or three people!"

...

The team lost two games in a row, and the fans of the Heat felt very disappointed, even hopeless. Although the team will return to Miami's home court, what's the difference?

Can you lose 50 points away from home and win at home?

At the press conference after the game, some reporters also asked Wang Xiao such a question.

"Coach Wang Xiao, how many games do you think this series will end? Does your team have a chance to sweep the Heat?"

Wang Xiao did not answer the question in the face as full of ambition as the reporters thought, but said rather conservatively: "I don't care how many games to solve the Heat, whether it is a sweep or a total score of 4:3, as long as It’s good to win and advance to the finals.”

Although Wang Xiao occasionally utters wild words and despises Pat Riley and his team, he doesn't want to leave anything behind.

After all, the Heat are a super strong team with the Big Three, the strongest in the league in the 11-12 season!

And this team also has the most powerful small forward in the league, LeBron James. In this case, everything is possible.

Wouldn't it be bad if Wang Xiao promised to sweep the opponent, and then James broke out in a small universe and won a game or two?

There is nothing wrong with his concerns. Back at the Heat's home court, James really broke out.

In the third game, while continuing to face Leonard George and others chasing and intercepting, James scored a triple-double of 44 points, 13 rebounds and 11 assists efficiently, leading the Heat and the Wizards to the last second.

At the last moment of the game, the score of the two teams was 114:113. The Wizards led by one point, but the ball was in the hands of the Heat.

James executed the last shot and missed the shot, but Bosh grabbed a key rebound, and then Wade, who received the pass, made a mid-range shot at the buzzer to complete the lore.

Wade's lore made the entire American Airlines Arena boil up, and the audience shouted heroes.

Wade James and others were inexplicably excited, as if they had won the entire series, but the big score was 2:1, and the Wizards were still in an absolute advantage.

After the game, Wang Xiao didn't show much emotion about the loss of the game, but was very calm.

"We lost because of bad luck. That rebound just bounced into Bosh's hands, giving the opponent a chance to kill. If the rebound bounced a little higher, the situation might be completely different."

Wang Xiao's words were somewhat suspected of justifying the team's loss, but it was also an indisputable fact.

At the Heat's home court, with James scoring 40+ triple-doubles, the Wizards still held the lead at the last minute.

Who can guarantee that James can be so efficient every game? And who can guarantee that Wade can hit the lore every game?

The Heat are still at an absolute disadvantage.

The fact is also the same, the fourth stop of the two sides is still held at the American Airlines Arena, home of the Heat, but this time, the game is not as stalemate as the previous game.

At the beginning of the game, the Heat relied on the fiery touch of the Big Three to take the lead, but soon, the Wizards caught up with the point difference and successfully overtook the score.

Subsequently, in the second quarter, third quarter and even the fourth quarter, the Wizards have been in the leading position and have maintained the lead until the end of the game.

At 106:94, the Wizards won the Heat by 12 points in an away game, and also turned the total score into 3:1, taking the lead in winning the match point.

The American Airlines Arena, which was full of people in the previous game, was completely silent at this moment.

3:1 is not the end of the world, but it is no different from the end of the world.

Next, the Heat will return to the home court of the Wizards for the game. How can the Wizards holding the match point give the Heat a chance to comeback?
