Chapter 317: The Last Step Towards the Finals (Part 2)(2/3)
Of course not!
So, after entering the penalty area, Wu Feng immediately closed the ball and took three big steps, soaring into the sky like a Magic team, stretching his flexible body in the air, and raising his right hand holding the ball high!
Wu Feng is going to dunk again!
However, at this moment, an accident happened again - a player wearing a red jersey suddenly jumped up from Wu Feng's right side and stretched out his long arms to the basketball in Wu Feng's hand.
"Bang!" Wu Feng suddenly felt a shock force coming from his hand, and then he hit the basket empty-handedly - he was covered!
When Wu Feng landed, he immediately turned around and looked behind him. In front of him, there was only the player who was launching a fast attack with the Heat and wearing the No. 3 Heat uniform - Dwayne Wade!
Wu Feng hurriedly ran back, but he was the last one to start, and he could not catch up with other players at all. He could only watch the Heat launch a fast attack.
Dwyne Wade dribbled the ball into the Magic's inside line. Facing Brandon Bass in front of him, he did not choose to play hard, but passed the ball to the "Little Emperor" who was unpreserved from outside the three-point line!
After receiving the ball, LeBron James did not waste this time using his phone. He jumped up and made a hollow three-pointer!
95:96, the Heat overtook the score!
At this moment, all the Magic players were filled with a strong sense of uneasiness, they were nervous and anxious. At this moment, who can still help the Magic and who can still?
Stan Van Gundy immediately called a timeout - he understood that if he didn't call a timeout at this moment, the Magic would definitely lose, and he might lose to his opponent by a big score!
"Damn..." Wu Feng roared angrily, his eyes full of reluctance and indignation-
If this dunk succeeds, the morale of the Magic will definitely be greatly encouraged! However, he was blocked by Dwayne Wade at the last moment, which will hit the team's morale again! This feeling from boiling point to freezing point has severely hit Wu Feng's self-confidence and self-esteem.
The game started again and the players from both sides walked onto the court again!
However, Stan Van Gundy has adjusted the Magic's lineup. He replaced Vince Carter with Chris Duhon and let him play the point guard, while Wu Feng was pushed to the shooting guard position!
After Chris Du Hong dribbled the ball through half the game, he immediately handed the ball to Wu Feng. After receiving the ball, the latter protected the ball to his waist and kept his eyes on Mike Miller in front of him!
Wu Feng suddenly raised his hand and looked like he wanted to shoot a three-pointer!
Mike Miller saw it, and he was already nervous, so he instinctively raised his arms and jumped up, trying to block and interfere with Wu Feng's shooting! However, after he jumped up, he realized that he had been fooled - Wu Feng did not really jump up, but used his raising his hands to shoot and tricked Mike Miller and made him jump up!
Wu Feng also jumped up with Kisbogans, but this time he jumped forward and hit his body in Mike Miller!
"Drip!" As Wu Feng's arm touched Mike Miller, the referee's whistle also sounded.
The body lost balance, but Wu Feng did not allow the ball and his body to land because of this. Instead, after hitting Mike Miller, he pushed the ball hard with his right hand and threw it into the basket!
"Swish!"
The ball Wu Feng shot actually fell into the basket hollow.
"Yeah..." The Magic's bench suddenly burst into excited and crazy shouts and cheers.
This three-pointer was really wonderful! Not only did it send the ball into the basket in a difficult manner, it also caused the opponent's foul! It was scored 3+1! Not everyone can do such a ability!
Wu Feng added free throws and scored the free throw!
LeBron James's touch seemed to suddenly get hot, and he transported the ball all the way through the half, then stopped in front of Gerald Wallace and made a jump shot. The ball entered.
Chris Duhon organized an offense and wandered back and forth outside the three-point line. The one who defended him was Dwayne Wade. Under Dwayne Wade's defense, it was difficult for Chris Duhon to do anything. Therefore, Chris Duhon did not find any opportunity for a while.
A pass from the ground was passed, and the ball reached Ryan Anderson at the basket. Ryan Anderson shook twice, then turned around, leaned back and jumped to shoot, and with a "bang", the iron shot.
However, Brandon Bass jumped up suddenly, pointed his finger and pushed the ball into the basket.
The Heat's ball rights, Chris Bosh sent the ball to Dwayne Wade. Dwayne Wade dribbled through half the ball, broke through, then hung the ball to the inside and handed it to Chris Bosh's hand.
Chris Bosh shook for a moment, missed the layup, and the Magic grabbed the defensive rebound.
Then at this time, the referee's whistle rang.
It wasn't someone who made a foul, but someone who got hurt.
Chris Bosh just missed the layup and stepped on Brandon Bass's foot and sprained his ankle.
Immediately, Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra called a timeout and replaced Chris Bosh.
After Chris Bosh went down, Zhu Wan Howard was the one who replaced him.
Wu Feng broke into the Heat's inside, and came to make up for defense. Wu Feng passed the ball and put it in the hands of Gerald Wallace behind him.
Gerald Wallace took the ball and made a three-pointer!
As time passed by minute by minute, the Magic still controlled the situation on the court. The Heat were unable to narrow the score gap to within 5 points, basically around 7 and 8 points.
Dwyne Wade broke through with the ball, and Chris Duhon wanted to intercept the ball, but the ball did not break down, but instead lost a foul by a foul.
The Heat reorganized the offense, and Dwyne Wade broke through Chris Duhon after receiving the sideline ball, and then made a layup.
The Magic failed to attack, and after the Heat grabbed the rebound, they launched a fast break under the guidance of Dwayne Wade, and scored again.
Seeing this, Magic coach Stan Van Gundy quickly called for a timeout.
At this moment, there are only four minutes left before the end of the game.
The Heat were extremely favorable tonight because Dwight Howard was missing due to injury.
But Chris Bosh was injured in the most critical fourth quarter game, so their inside advantage would be gone.
Without Chris Bosh, the Heat's inside strength will inevitably suffer a lot, so during the timeout, Stan Van Gundy urged the disciples to play more inside.
After the timeout, the game continued. The Magic replaced Chris Duhon with Vince Carter, while the Heat replaced Mike Miller with James Jones.
As soon as the game continued, the Magic implemented the tactics that Stan Van Gundy talked about during the timeout.
Led by Ryan Anderson, the inside player, the Magic started a counterattack. Ryan Anderson made two shots and scored 4 points, while Gerald Wallace also added icing on the cake and made a three-pointer to help the Magic score a 7-0 small**.
After a while, the Magic rewrites the score to 103:90, and the Magic won a 13-point lead.
However, immediately afterwards, the Heat also launched a counterattack.
After several breakthroughs and passes, the Heat finally tore the Magic's defense open. LeBron James received an assist from Dwayne Wade and made a layup, recovering 2 points for the Heat.
Chris Duhon missed a jump shot from the baseline, and Zaydrunas Ilgoskas took a defensive rebound.
The Heat's offense still seemed orderly, and Dwyne Wade quickly brought the ball through halftime. After halftime, Dwyne Wade handed the ball over to LeBron James.
LeBron James singled Gerald Wallace, but he saw no chance, so he chose to pass the ball.
Wu Feng, who was focused, found that the ball had a flaw when LeBron James passed the ball. He stretched out his arm and broke the ball.
The excellent consciousness immediately made Wu Feng discover that Chris Du Hong had already run to the Heat's half, so Wu Feng quickly passed the ball over.
The ball landed accurately in front of Chris Duhong, and he took a layup and the ball passed through the basket steadily.
After the Heat sent the ball from the bottom line, the Magic players had already retreated to their half.
Dwyne Wade frowned slightly. Before he could pass half, Wu Feng directly pulled out to defend. The rigorous defense gave Dwyne Wade a headache.
When James Jones saw Dwyne Wade's situation, he quickly pulled it out, took the pass from Dwyne Wade's hand, and quickly handed it to the inside.
LeBron James received the ball near the free throw line, held the ball with his right hand and bounced back. It was Gerald Wallace who defended him. In the face of unsuccessful search, LeBron James' wrist shaking slightly, and the ball was handed over from behind to Zhu Wan Howard, who used his body as a cover and made a mid-range shot.
Although James Jones is just a role player, his defense is quite good, especially with good blocking ability.
After Wu Feng tried hard to get rid of Dwyne Wade's defense, James Jones immediately made up for it, and completely adopted a close-fitting defense against Wu Feng, and the kind of close-fitting defense that he would not relax without taking a single step.
Any player needs enough space to display it. However, James Jones' entire body is almost against him. This kind of defense requires very strict requirements for defensive players. In addition to excellent explosive power and reaction power, it also requires a certain physical ability to fight.
In close-fitting defense, if you are easily bounced away by your opponent, you will not be able to achieve the expected effect at all. However, this defensive effect is also obvious, and it is difficult for offensive players to choose. Moreover, during the ball control process, due to the limited space for display, you will easily make mistakes if you are not careful.
Feeling the oppressive force coming from James Jones's body, Wu Feng was secretly surprised.
The ball was quickly handed over to Vince Carter. With Wu Feng's position at this time, even if he succeeded by forcibly breaking through, other Heat players had enough time to come forward to make up for defense.
After the ball was shot, Wu Feng quickly interspersed with the running position, but what made him more depressed was that James Jones seemed to have determined himself. Even if the ball was no longer in his hands, he still chased him and refused to leave a single step.
Vince Carter saw Wu Feng unable to shake off James Jones, and in desperation, he had to hang the ball into the inside. Brandon Bass received the ball near the free throw line.
Zhu Wan Howard immediately pulled out to defend, but he neglected Wu Feng. Since he couldn't get rid of James Jones, Wu Feng simply ran continuously in the three-point line. When Vince Carter lifted the ball into the inside, Wu Feng's eyes lit up and went straight towards Brandon Bass. A flash of sight passed in front of Brandon Bass, which just hindered Zhu Wan Howard's backup defense.
Seeing that Wu Feng had provided cover for him, Brandon Bass directly shot and hit it with a "swish".
Dwayne Wade quickly slid his right step along the force of the dribble. Before Wu Feng made up for defense, he quickly stepped out his left foot and completed the entire start action instantly.
A figure flashed in front of him, and Dwyne Wade suddenly got rid of Wu Feng's defense. Just when he thought the breakthrough was successful, Wu Feng actually reappeared on his breakthrough route.
Seeing the passing of time little by little, Dwyne Wade did not hesitate at all. Taking advantage of Wu Feng's defense and not firmly gaining a foothold, his right wrist trembled slightly, and the ball quickly handed it to Zaydrunas Ilgoskas as an arrow.
At this time, Ryan Anderson was being pulled to the outside, and only Brandon Bass was left in the inside.
Zaydrunas Ilgoscas singled out Brandon Bass with his back. He used his rich experience to turn around with a clever turn, and passed Brandon Bass, and wanted to make a big flick with both hands.
However, just as Zaydrunas Ilgoskas' ball was raised, the ball in his hand was shot to the floor by a big yellow hand.
After Wu Feng successfully made a steal, he immediately passed a long pass and flew directly to the Heat's half.
Vince Carter had been waiting for the Heat in the first half. After receiving Wu Feng's pass, he made a beautiful dunk.
At this moment, the Magic had already widened the score to 114:98, and the Magic led the Heat by 16 points. It was only nearly two minutes before the end of the entire game. Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra did not want to give up, so he called a timeout at this time and wanted to re-arrange the tactics.
The fans at home were nervous, but many of them also showed disappointment on their faces.
It's unlikely to catch up with 16 points in two minutes.
After the timeout is over, the game starts again.
Dwyne Wade broke through with the ball, attracting double-team defense, LeBron James, who made a wonderful pass from the baseline, hit a three-pointer.
