When link scored again, the heat found it impossible to regain their first quarter advantage. In the second quarter, the appearance of Jimmy Butler completely changed the situation.
Once link gets a chance in singles, he won''t be soft. Even if the only defense against him is James, link will use the most superb skills to beat the other side.
The grizzly''s attack was finally revived, and the defensive side was no longer concerned with one another. Throughout the second quarter, link and Butler seem to be the shadow of James and Wade.
They also played a number of wonderful cooperation, but also produced a good enough performance. This pair of grizzly bears looks like "jangway connection".
The real James and Wade, on the contrary, were suppressed for a while and couldn''t lift their heads.
Wade didn''t take advantage of Butler. The "lightning man" was very hard at the offensive end when he faced the young Butler.
Butler is not a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch. A person who is tortured by link every day in the training hall will not be afraid of any attack.
Offensive side, Butler''s performance is also quite eye-catching. Whenever link gets caught in the bag, Butler can hit the shot he should.
So far, Wade didn''t dare to let Butler go. However, it is too late, has played the offensive feeling Butler in Wade''s one-on-one defense, can still continue to score goals!
In the second quarter, it''s like a copy of the first. It''s still a duet, but it''s James and wade that''s leading the game, to link and butler.
"At the end of the half-time, 58-51, the Grizzlies finished the first half with a 7-point advantage! From 5 points behind to 7 points ahead, the Grizzlies made a textbook counterattack! Link and Butler cut 22 points together, they let Wade and James are helpless
Hobby Brown was the first to stand up and cheer after the electronic buzzer came up at half-time.
The old man was excited because he saw more than just a beautiful second quarter and a seven point lead.
What he saw was the possibility of a top two in the future!
When it comes to the famous NBA duo, people always think of Jordan and Pippen, Kobe and O''Neal, Malone and Stockton, as well as James and Wade.
But if Butler can keep up the momentum... Hubie Brown believes that the names of link and Butler may one day be included.
If a player''s real level can''t be fulfilled in the regular season, then today, in the finals, facing the top opponents, Jimmy Butler has made his potential to the full play!
In half-time, Butler scored 8 points, 3 rebounds and 2 steals, showing a strong performance.
And link''s second quarter single 10 points, also let his personal score surpass James and Wade, came to 16 points.
Wade and James were almost dumb in the second quarter, with only 4 and 5 points respectively. If it wasn''t for the substitute "Junzi Lei" who made some achievements outside the three-point line and continued the excellent feeling of the walkers in the last game, the heat would be two digits behind now.
"Well done, Jimmy, you just broke through Wade and scored a fantastic goal. In the second half, I need you to keep standing up Link also happily patted Butler on the shoulder when he left the court, which made Butler feel embarrassed.
Randolph snickered. Link was right. Butler had prepared for the day long enough. The morning when he came to the training hall in advance in silence was not in vain.
In the second half, Wade and James seemed to break the brake suddenly, and they didn''t play well on the offensive end.
James seems to want to mobilize the enthusiasm of his teammates, so the second half is mainly to pass and organize, the desire of independent attack is not too strong.
Heat 6 did not forget what they said, as long as the heat all unite, there is nothing that can not be done. He didn''t forget how the heat won in the Eastern Conference finals.
If you can play more flowering performance, the heat today has hope.
But the rest of the heat didn''t score today. Bosh received the ball under the basket several times, but in the end, he was either blocked or interfered. Three points and medium distance, but also to the end of the iron.
Wade''s breakthrough in Butler''s defense is also greatly reduced, although pumping knee water, but Wade''s state is certainly not able to recover to the peak period. Originally, Wade''s projection was unstable, but now the breakthrough is still limited, and suddenly "the original form" is revealed.
The heat can only use sporadic resistance to deal with the grizzly bear attack, but that is not enough.
After three quarters, James''s data is only three assists away from triple double. However, the heat are 11 points behind the Grizzlies!
"The gap continues to widen, LeBron has to take up the responsibility of scoring! It''s not easy to reverse 11 points on the Grizzlies. I don''t think LeBron is willing to give his first defeat like this
Everyone guessed that James should start the attack mode in the fourth quarter. However, James''s approach is quite different from everyone''s guess.He''s still trying to connect the team.
Seeing this, Hubie Brown shook his head. The Grizzlies won their team''s first finals, and were basically steady.
In the third quarter, although James didn''t score much, he had some brilliant passes. But in the fourth quarter, James even began to miss the pass.
In the third minute of the fourth quarter, James broke through to find Ray Allen outside the three-point line. The positive Butler immediately rushed back, an arm extension, he will basketball into the bag.
In the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, James threw the pot to Norris Cole in the last three seconds. Cole was completely covered by Conley outside the three-point line and couldn''t even make a move. In the end, the heat violated the rule for 24 seconds, which is also included in the error.
A minute later, James broke through and was ready to pass to bosh. However, the penalty area has been packed and there is no room for passing. Gasol subconsciously reached for a block and let James swallow the third mistake in the fourth quarter!
James had three mistakes in such a short period of time. Some of James''s mentality exploded.
The Grizzlies had a long time to deal with it. They ran to block James''s pass in the fourth quarter. It''s no accident that MVP has made so many mistakes.
Continuous mistakes mean the Grizzlies keep fighting back. By the time James came to his senses, the heat were 16 points behind the Grizzlies!
"The game has three minutes left, but the heat are 16 points behind! Although LeBron''s difference can get three double data with one assist, even if he does, it will be meaningless! Look around the stands. Grizzlies fans are ready to celebrate ahead of time
Spoelstra used the penultimate pause she had in her hands before the last three minutes. When the game was called off, James did not immediately leave the field, but looked at the big screen.
Then, the heat No. 6 bowed his head and went to the bench.
He thought the Grizzlies would be as green as last year''s thunder, and only need to be a little more serious to crush it.
But until now, James vaguely feels that this team is a bit like the blue team in 2011.
They are strong, not easy to give up, struggling to survive. The most important thing, of course, is that they have an equally inexplicable leader.
In the last three minutes, the heat didn''t play a decent offensive. The Grizzlies defended solidly and held on to the end.
104-96, thanks to the garbage time Norris Cole''s three-point hit, the heat reduced the final game gap to a single digit, saving a little face.
At the end of the game, link just laughed and didn''t react too much. After all, it was just a phased victory, not a final one.
Link looked at the data on the big screen and touched Butler''s head. "Nice job, brother."
Butler had 21 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 block, 2 steals, and link had 29 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals.
The two scored 50 points today, which is almost half of the Grizzlies'' score!
In contrast to the heat, although James grabbed an exaggerated 18 rebounds and sent out 10 assists, but only 18 points of the score, is certainly not in line with James''s expectations.
Wade scored 9 points in the first quarter, but only 17 points were scored in the whole match. In the fourth quarter, he was defended by Butler and scored 1 in 5.
Bosh, not to mention, is only 6-out of 16, shooting less than 40%, and his performance is still low.
The performance of the three giants was completely obscured by the light of link and butler.
After the game, James shook his head in the tunnel. It seems that the heat want to keep the team in shape, not every day. If you try to connect them by force, you may not be able to connect them.
Otherwise, the Eastern Conference finals won''t be held until the tiebreaker.
James then clenched his fist. Since the pass didn''t work, it was hard! As an MVP, it''s time for him to do it himself.
