When people thought it was going to be a game between James and link, Wade stood up and took on the responsibility that should have belonged to him.
Single quarter 14 points, 2 assists, 3 rebounds and 2 steals, Wade''s first quarter is like dreaming back to the peak!
It''s like a signal, a signal that the heat is starting to reverse the situation.
Once Wade makes a similar performance in the playoffs, it means the heat will start to sound the clarion call.
At this time, the Heat fans are extremely excited. They don''t care whether Wade or James leads the team to win. As long as they can win in the end, it doesn''t matter who wins.
Only if they win in the end can the heat have hope for this round of series.
In this regard, they are full of confidence.
They know Wade won''t give up the series and the heat won''t abandon his team.
He once again sounded the clarion call of counterattack, and in each counterattack, the heat without exception won.
It''s not just a victory in one game, it''s a victory in a series!
Spoelstra is more calm than the hot fireball fans. He knows better than anyone that the game is not over.
Wade''s blocking Conley is just the first step. James can seal link, this is the second step, but also the most important step.
In the regular season, link scored 29 points, 7.4 rebounds, 7 assists, 1.2 steals 1.4 blocks per game, of which 7 assists per game was the 10th place in the league.
It turns out that link''s organizational ability is no less than that of many point guards. If he can reinvigorate the Grizzlies, all the heat''s efforts will fall short.
In other words, the situation is now the same as the last one. The key to winning or losing lies in link and James!
But there seems to be nothing wrong with putting hope on James.
Spoelstra is still confident, and the source of his confidence is the good air conditioning system of today''s FedEx stadium.
In the last game, under the high temperature of 40 ℃, James was basically physically overdrawn at the end of the third quarter. So throughout the fourth quarter, James was stalked by link.
But today, without the heat, Spoelstra believes James can withstand link''s impact.
He''s the best player in the league. What''s wrong with putting hope on him?
The second quarter of the game soon began, grizzlies did not change, still back to the full start. The heat side is also the same, since the Spurs by the Grizzlies a big four small abuse, Spoelstra dare not easily play small team.
Although Lewis is strictly a small forward, his height of 2.08 meters can not match with "small".
In the second section, the heat attack first. This time, Wade used the pick and roll to get rid of Conley. In the face of Gasol''s supplementary defense, he swung open the space with a beautiful tracking step, and successfully made a layup.
Wade''s state did not cool down after a break. He''s still full fire and has raised his personal score to 16.
Conley didn''t feel so helpless against any player for a long time.
Even in the Western Conference semi-finals against Paul, Conley didn''t play so hard.
Once Wade''s offensive state comes out, it''s a dimension reduction attack for Conley.
The heat continue to lead and they''ve got a nine point advantage! It''s the first time the heat have experienced a 9-point lead in the finals.
Grizzly fans are at a loss. They are all wondering what Grizzlies can do to reverse the situation.
At this point, link stood near the baseline, one hand open to receive Gasol''s baseline ball.
And Conley? He''s already in the front to get ready.
The fans were all wide eyed, and it seemed that link had become a... Point forward!?
"Link took the baseline ball after half-time, the Grizzlies made a change at the beginning of the second quarter!" Hubie Brown also helped his glasses to see what medicine link had in his pocket.
Linke skillfully stopped outside the three-point line and directed his teammates to run.
James resisted the urge to snatch and held his arms open in front of link. He knew that he must not be in a hurry. Rush to steal link, the result is that guy one step away.
After almost commanding, link began to dribble with his left and right hands alternately. James is absorbed in the movement of link, this dribble prelude, link should want to suddenly get up and speed up!
As soon as James thought of it, link moved!
James, who had been prepared for it, immediately moved sideways in the direction of link''s acceleration. He clenched his teeth and was ready to withstand the impact!
However, link''s style is not as simple and crude as James. At the moment when both sides are about to collide with each other, link turns forward and flashes past James!James rushed back to chase, he did not expect that link would suddenly use the continuous change to this move.
As we all know, link has two breakthrough styles since the all star game.
One is the sudden stop and start before, and the other is the continuous change of direction by Grant Hill.
In order to judge which way link broke through, it mainly depends on his preparation before his breakthrough.
If he lowers his center of gravity, and his hands quickly alternate left and right, it''s to get up and speed up.
If link straightens up and slowly moves closer to the defender, you''ll have to be prepared for a continuous change of direction.
James has studied all this for a long time, so he is confident in his judgment.
Little did not know that link this time with the sudden acceleration of the preparatory action, played a continuous change out.
After such a long time of adaptation, link has long been able to mix the two breakthrough covers together. James''s previous experience in defending link is now completely void.
Link broke into the penalty area and slid past posh, who was active in defense, and made a soft layup.
Just full of expectation, Spoelstra slapped his head. Who could have thought that James'' defense was so easily broken away by link.
"Link''s continuous changes are still so lethal that we haven''t seen him pass in this way for some time. I have to say that link''s performance just now was a feast for the eyes. "
Despite the goal, the heat are not hopeless.
Just that attack, although link control the ball after half-time, but he did not organize the attack, but chose his own singles.
But link can not rely on a single player to win the Grizzlies, as long as the Grizzlies attack can not work, link is no use getting more points!
So Spoelstra made a gesture to the players. Next, he''s going to strengthen his defense against link!
The heat''s attack is as efficient as ever, bosh in the low turnover jump shot, let the difference return to 9 points again. Wade''s excellent condition, has radiated to the heat each player body.
Although bosh scored, the heat were not complacent. Because now the key to win the game is mainly in defense!
It''s not too late for link to be happy.
Link caught the ball from the baseline again, and it looked like he was still an organizer. But Spoelstra knew that link was just thinking about a long single!
This time, facing James''s defense again, link still did not pass the ball, but called the pick and roll.
Bosh is ready to make up for it. He doesn''t believe it. Neither of them can stop link!
Link took cover and went straight to the penalty area from 45 ° to the right, while Spoelstra''s face was filled with a smile.
It seems that link can''t find a way to organize the attack under the heat''s tight defense.
The heat did a good job in defense today, not only killing Conley, but also trying to block the possible passing route. So in the first quarter, the Grizzlies fought so hard.
Link into the restricted area, bosh and James two people immediately surrounded up. Link now not only does not have the space to hand, even legendary team also does not have the space!
Bosh is ready to take off and block. He watches link break into the penalty area, then goes deep and continues.
However, link has already run from the right side of the basket to the left side and still hasn''t made a shot.
Just when bosh felt strange, there was a loud noise in his ear!
Bosh was a jump, looking back, only to find that mark Gasol is hanging on the basket, he just dunked!
"What?" Bosh opened his mouth wide. The basketball was clearly in link''s hands. When did he jump to Gasol''s hand!?
"He just passed the ball. Didn''t you notice that?" James is anxious to roar at bosh, which makes the "Dragon King" look confused.
It turned out that just now, when link crossed into the penalty area, he had already passed the ball behind the back of bosh to Gasol!
But because link didn''t look at people all the time, and the passing movement was very secret, so bosh didn''t notice at all. He thought link was carrying the ball all the time!
Bosh was pushed away by link, Gasol was able to dunk directly after receiving the basketball!
Link''s beautiful pass, completely playing with bosh!
Can''t find a pass? It doesn''t exist. In link''s eyes, there are passing routes everywhere! What''s more, it''s the pass line that you don''t have to look at with your eyes!
"What kind of fairy pass is this!? Haha, did you see Chris Bosh''s face in a daze! He was still thinking, what kind of magic did link use to make the ball disappear! Magic, yes, magic! Just now, link is like a magician of the 21st century! Few players can match link''s sense of basketball. And that pass just now shows this point more incisively and vividlyLink once again helped Grizzlies recover a goal, the difference between the two sides became 7 points.
Although the heat still dominated, but at this time, Spoelstra did not laugh.
The reason why link chose singles for the first goal was to increase his attack threat. Only after the attack can the threat be increased.
And if you attract the defense, you have the chance to pass!
Spoelstra now suddenly realized, link from the beginning of the game, led the heat''s nose in walking! He deliberately attracted the bag in order to create opportunities for his teammates!
Once link reink reinforces the Grizzlies attack... Not to mention 7 points, even 17 points is not safe!
Wade and the heat''s path of redemption, began to become less smooth.
