Chapter 496 Silent American Airlines Arena(2/2)
"Double team!"
Wang Zelin Zhan Jin Jie Tie replied.
Coach Terry nodded, acquiescing to bandaging James, but he still reminded:
"First of all, Ray Allen and Lewis absolutely cannot be let go. They are the two players who have scored the most three-pointers currently.
Secondly, Bosh can't let go of his shots. His range and firepower have the ability to kill the game. So, Damien, when necessary, you can adopt a strategy of giving Wade more shots than sudden shots."
Among the five players on the Heat court, Wade has the lowest three-point shooting percentage and three-point production.
Let him vote, at least it seems to be the most reasonable choice.
Beep——
The timeout ends and players from both sides take the field.
At this time, the Trail Blazers coaching staff saw that the Heat's two top three-point shooters, Ray Allen and Lewis, were pushed back to the bench.
Their replacements were Mario Chalmers and Shane Battier.
After thinking about it for a moment, they understood the reason.
Ray Allen is one and a half months away from turning 39, and Lewis is less than two months away from turning 35... These two guys are too old!
Since the Heat's 2013~2014 playoffs this year, Ray Allen and Lewis have averaged 26 minutes of playing time per game, while the latter has averaged less than 20 minutes.
But even so, Ray Allen, who is almost 39 years old, became the Heat's player second only to the Heat's Big Three in the 2013-2014 playoffs, averaging 9.3 points per game.
Lewis averaged 5.4 points per game, ranking sixth on the team.
Ranking fifth is 28-year-old Mario Chalmers, who averaged 6.4 points per game in the playoffs.
Coupled with the air-conditioning time tonight, which further aggravates the physical exertion of the two aging veterans, it is already extraordinary to be able to maintain an efficient playing time of about 20 minutes tonight.
You know, even James and Wang Zelin were sweating profusely and gasping for breath every step of the way.
Sure enough, time is the most unsolvable existence.
At this time, Tristotts saw Wang Zelin suddenly turning his head. The two of them had a clear understanding and looked at each other with a smile.
The opportunity for the Blazers to take the lead has come.
Trail Blazers offense.
On this attack, Lillard handed the ball to Aldridge.
Shane Battier, a bloody jersey from the past, has become a beautiful memory for countless people.
The president is a true tough guy.
But as the saying goes, no human being can escape the baptism of time.
Battier, who will turn 36 in three months, still has the demeanor of the "Kobe Bryant Terminator" and his attitude is still iron-blooded, but the defensive end has long been beyond his capabilities.
Battier, who was 2.03 meters tall, faced off against Aldridge, who was a head taller than him. Facing the latter's turn-over jump shot, he wanted to use his old blind-shielding technique. He jumped with both legs and barely reached the latter's chin.
.
With a "swish" sound, the basketball hit the net, 87:89.
Unable to guard against this, a sad smile flashed across Shane's face, and then he quickly turned around and settled down.
Heat offense.
James received the ball and slowly approached the frontcourt.
At this time, there was still more than half a quarter left before the end of the fourth quarter. James knew that he had to stabilize his advantage first. He could think of the Trail Blazers and reject them with only one goal left, and he couldn't help cursing in his heart.
Why?
Why can we always catch up in such a short period of time?
call!
Taking a deep breath, James looked resolutely and did not break through rashly. Instead, he called out to him just now.
Bosh's pick-and-roll was of high quality, completely blocking Batum. But before he could rejoice, Aldridge dropped Battier in the corner and pounced on him like crazy.
Seeing this, James decisively distributed the ball. Unfortunately, after sitting on the bench for so long, Battier's touch did not change due to the rising temperature of the American Airlines Arena. It remained as cold as ever. The iron should be struck.
As soon as Battier completed his shot, Wang Zelin had already turned around, blocked his position in advance, and collected the rebound into his arms.
"Quick attack!"
On the sidelines, Coach Terry was so excited that he couldn't control himself and roared to the sky.
The Blazers went crazy and quickly, Wang Zelin made a long pass, Batum received the ball, and the three-pointer on the right side of the frontcourt was at a 45-degree angle. He pretended to shoot, tricking James into forcing the defense, and then gave the ball to the basket...
"boom!"
Lillard jumped up in the air, caught the pass, and slammed it into the basket!
89:89, the score is tied.
Seeing this scene, the home fans in the stands were stunned.
This is an indoor high temperature of 40℃!
It’s already the fourth quarter!
Why?
Why is it that the No. 0 kid from the Trail Blazers can still maintain lightning speed, rush from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and complete alley-oop dunks?
Isn't he tired?
Having said that, I'm not really tired at all.
In the first year of his debut, Lee was able to play 82 regular season games and average 38.6 minutes of playing time to claim the title of the league's top ironman. He is the real super ironman!
A year later, after experiencing the training of his rookie season, Lillard's physical attributes have improved further, from 95 in his rookie season to 96, and his injury resistance attribute remains unchanged at 94.
Damian Lillard is the strongest man in the Portland Trail Blazers. How can it be possible for our coach Li to defeat us at a temperature of only 40℃?
"Ahhhhhhhh!!!"
After landing, Lillard couldn't restrain his excitement and excitement, and suddenly looked up to the sky and roared.
Chapter completed!
