The Way of the Center

Chapter 592: The Great Adversary

"LeBron threw away his headband angrily. This guy who has already touched the O'Brien Cup with one hand doesn't want to watch the team sink like this!" James' actions made the atmosphere even more tense. Under the shouts of the 10 people playing on the court, their eyes were even more red-eyed.

Ricard found that An Jie was being violated more and more times now. They couldn't prevent it anyway, so the Heat simply used the most vicious method to make Anjie feel timid.

But what An Jie is most afraid of is this kind of tough method, allowing himself to be overturned to the ground again and again, and letting James and Bosh's dark elbows hit him. Although An Jie's body is sore, he never gives up and is afraid .

The fans in the Rose Garden began to point their fingers at the referee. There were several balls that could be called fouls, but the referee was indifferent.

In fact, the referees are also acting according to orders. If the scale of the finals is too restricted, then how can there be wonderful pictures?

After the failure of double-teaming Anjie, the Heat had no choice but to temporarily delay Anjie's offensive footsteps. At the same time, the angry James broke out in full swing. After throwing away the headband, he became more determined. Like An Jie, he was not afraid of physical confrontation. This guy plunged into the crowd as soon as he got the ball, which really achieved good results.

The main theme of the second quarter was spent in Anjie and James falling down and getting up again and again.

Both Spoelstra and Ricard were terrified, terrified that their absolute core would be injured. In order to protect their leading star at this stage full of gunpowder, both coaches replaced him in advance to rest.

James was already sweating profusely, while Anjie was out of breath. The score on the field was also approached by the Heat. After all, James' desperate breakthrough is too impactful. It is impossible for An Jie to bear the impact of that "armored vehicle" every time.

But fortunately, Aldridge bravely stood up after Anjie went off the field. He turned over frequently and succeeded in jump shots in the Heat's appalling inside defense. The score that James finally approached was easily opened by Aldridge again.

43 to 54,

The double-digit difference remains. The Trail Blazers not only successfully restricted the performance of the Big Three today, but also showed all their offensive capabilities.

At halftime, Spoelstra gave up his plan to double-team Anjie. Because of the outstanding performance of the rest of the Trail Blazers after Anjie left the field, the Philippine coach had to worry.

Other than An Jie, there are already signs of casting. It is not a bad thing to take advantage of this intermission to destroy the momentum of the Trail Blazers. At the beginning of the third quarter, Spoelstra did not intend to let the rest of the Trail Blazers get another chance!

On the Trail Blazers side, Ricard is still emphasizing the role players of the Heat. Although James and Wade played very strongly in the second quarter, Ricard still didn't want the Blazers' defense to be attracted by these two men.

"It's almost impossible to keep these two guys from getting a point. What we have to do is to try to control the scoring of Wade and James, and at the same time completely lock the scoring of others! I still don't believe it, a James dragged a declining Wade and could complete the reversal!"

The overall thinking of the coaches of both sides has returned to the original point, so the rhythm of the third quarter is exactly the same as that of the first quarter.

The Heat's role players enjoyed star-like defensive treatment, and Mike Miller was so stunned by Iguodala that he couldn't even run out of the open.

And what about James and Angie? The personal abilities of these two guys amazed all the commentators present.

Angie is like no one in the paint, as long as he wants, he can kill Bosh.

James' strong body broke all the defensive strategies arranged by Ricard. There are always a few people in this league who override all systems. James is one of them.

"LeBron's tough layup, he was knocked out of the baseline by Ann, but the basketball fell into the net!"

"Oh my god, Chris Bosh doesn't dare to act rashly anymore. This guy's self-confidence was completely wiped out by Ann today. The difference in strength between the two is unbelievably large. You know, Chris is also one of the Big Three. Ah! Back hook, easy, An scored again!"

"James was pushed by Aldridge, and he flew straight to the press box. This guy didn't care about his body, but clapped his hands. Getting two free throws is more than anything for James right now important."

"Teaming up, James is desperate! Don't look at the pass from behind, does Andre Iguodala have it? Three-pointer again! Seventh assist, this is already the seventh assist given by Anjie in this game !"

This is the finals, a desperate showdown between the top teams and the top stars.

"Ann and LeBron, there is no one in this league who is more suitable for the finals than them! The peak duel, this is simply a veritable peak duel!" Kenny Smith was sweating profusely, not because of the failure of the air-conditioning system in the Rose Garden. There was no problem, but because the fierce confrontation made him unable to extricate himself.

Chamberlain and Russell, "Big Bird" and "Magician", Jordan and the Bad Boys, Kobe and the Celtics Big Three. Each of these classic opponents has brought wonderful games to the NBA and the basketball world.

And now, Kenny Smith thinks. Anjie and James are fully qualified to join this list!

The game reached the fourth quarter, and the point difference between the two sides still did not change much. The impatient James took the initiative to make a request to Spoelstra, and he wanted to play the entire fourth quarter!

At the same time, Mario Chalmers suddenly felt the touch and frequently scored magical goals in the tight defense. No, it's not so much that he got a touch, it's better to say that luck came suddenly.

There was a ball that Chalmers had been forced to the bottom line by Lillard, but Chalmers made a forced shot and threw the basketball from behind the backboard.

In addition, in the middle of the fourth quarter, Ricard replaced Anjie and Aldridge, allowing James to seize the opportunity, and in one go, he finally approached the score.

James pulled the Heat over the cliff almost by himself, but from the moment Anjie reappeared, the "Little Emperor"'s rescue plan stagnated again and reached a deadlock.

The 5-7 point difference has continued, James worked very hard, and his performance is good enough. It's a pity that whenever James scores a goal, Anjie can always fight back in the other half.

The Trail Blazers just recognized the weak inside play of your Heat team. The most terrifying thing is that James and Spoelstra can only watch it all, and there is nothing they can do.

The two sides come and go, the later the game, the lower the shooting rate of the two teams that consume too much. Even An Jie failed to make a hook twice in a row. From this, it can be seen that the physical energy of both sides was almost exhausted.

"The game will be over with 30 seconds left! The Heat are still behind by 5 points, and these 5 points will be the key to determining whether the Heat can win the trophy today!" Bill Walton was shaking all over his body, he was nervous, he was afraid An accident happened in the last 30 seconds!

Now it's the Heat's offense, chasing 5 points in 30 seconds, James doesn't want to score two points with the Blazers. In doing so, the Heat will only be dragged to death by the Blazers!

Three-pointers, the only thing that can help the Heat win the championship in 30 seconds is a three-pointer!

Wade broke through with the ball, but Anjie still stuck to the basket, unmoved. Matthews gritted his teeth, afraid that he would suffer from Wade's fake action again.

However, Wade was just a feint. After attracting the defense, he suddenly scored the ball, allowing James outside the three-point line in front of the basket to get the basketball!

Time waits for no one, James pulls up and shoots! But the shot was way too crooked, hitting the gap between the neck of the basket and the backboard.

An Jie stuck in position, ready to take off. But at this moment, Bosh suddenly pushed An Jie violently. When Anjie was in the position, he took root and it was quite stable. Bosh could push Anjie, which shows that the strength he used has reached the category of fouls!

An Jie looked at the referee, but the referee was indifferent!

"Fuck it!" An Jie yelled, and quickly turned around to join the game again. But at the moment, Bosh has already shot the basketball out. James shot for the second time in a row. This shot will determine the fate of the Heat!

"LeBron!? Yes! A three-pointer, James made it, and he made perhaps the most critical goal of the season! The Heat are still two points behind, and they must foul immediately!"

James pulled up and hammered his chest, and this guy once again accomplished the impossible.

The Heat immediately launched a full-court pressing defense. Under Bosh's strong interference, it was very difficult for Aldridge to send the ball.

In the end, it was Lillard's active running that won him the space to catch the ball. But as soon as he touched the ball, he was violated by Chalmers.

Now, all eyes are on him, on this rookie who is only in his first year in the NBA.

Lillard also knows that his two free throws are crucial to the Blazers. If he makes a mistake, it may ruin the efforts of his teammates all season long.

"Must go in, please make sure to make it!" Lillard nervously raised the basketball amidst the breath-holding atmosphere of the fans. However, when it comes to free throws, the more you think about making sure to score, the easier it is to miss

The basketball flew through the three-second zone and headed straight for the hoop. An Jie's heart tightened, this ball is dangerous!

Sure enough, the basketball hit the front of the basket, bounced out, and missed the first free throw!

"It's okay, it's okay, we're still ahead, just relax, just relax and shoot!" Anjie immediately stepped forward to high-five Lillard. Lillard has never felt that free throws are so difficult for him.

For the second free throw, Lillard couldn't help but look at An Jie before making the free throw. This Chinese had great expectations of himself during the trial training. As a result, he really took over Portland.

In a season with Anjie, Lillard felt that he was very happy. He likes this leader, he likes this leader who always takes all the responsibilities and always makes his teammates better. Without Anjie, Lillard is not even sure if he can get the Rookie of the Year award.

Seeing Lillard staring at him, An Jie raised his hand and gave Lillard a thumbs up.

For some reason, Lillard suddenly felt relieved. An Jie's encouragement always has a magical power.

This rookie who entered the league and stood on the stage of the finals in his first year was no longer nervous. He shot steadily, and Ricard stood up from his seat with a big mouth.

Bosh and James immediately stuck their positions across their bodies, for fear that the rebound would leak into the hands of the Trail Blazers.

However

"brush!"

The basketball is hollow into the net!

"One of two free throws. Fortunately, Damien scored the second free throw! Now there are 15 seconds before the end of the game, and the Heat called the last timeout. With a three-point gap, the Heat have enough time to play 3 points to drag the game into overtime. Believe me, the Heat will not give up easily with one hand already touching the O'Brien Cup." Mike Breen is ready for the next 15 seconds, but the human heart A strong shock.

"Ray." Heat bench, Spoelstra called Ray Allen's name.

"Get ready to play." The legendary shooter of the 96 golden generation, the Heat introduced him just for this desperate moment!

Spoelstra has several people who can kill the game, and Ray Allen will never be absent at this moment.
