The Heat are on offense, and Grant retreats to the three-point line to receive the ball.

Wade faked a move, bypassed Butler, and ran back towards the basket. Butler closed his eyes, his heart pounding with panic... The Heat had used this tactic in the last game, and Wade had jumped right over Jones' head.

Butler is only a few centimeters taller than Jones.

He was worried that Wei Guo would jump over his head, but thankfully... Wei Guo didn't.

This was purely a matter of chance. The reason Wei Guo was able to jump over Jones's head was because he was prepared and knew that Jones was right behind him. If he could jump over his opponent's head every time, Wei Guo would be a frog reincarnated.

Wade received the ball and went for a layup, but Jefferson rushed to help defend.

"Whoosh!!!"

Wade twisted his body and made a layup.

"Beep!!!"

The referee blew his whistle and called a blocking foul on Jefferson!

"Well done!"

Wei Guo patted Jefferson's butt and said, "The Heat will use this tactic again. Next time, if you help defend more promptly, you won't get called for a blocking foul."

Wade stepped to the free-throw line, took a deep breath, and threw the ball toward the basket.

"Whoosh!!!"

Free throw made!

Wade clenched his fist in celebration and turned back to defend.

13:6!!

The Heat's confidence comes from Wade. In the first round against the Magic, when they were down 3-1, Wade scored 40+ points in three consecutive games, leading the team to a strong comeback and showing the edge of a superstar.

......

The Heat began to close the gap, Jefferson missed a shot, and Odom grabbed the defensive rebound.

Wade broke through to the basket, pulled the ball back with a reverse hand, then spun around like a top, shook off Mourning, and stepped out with his left foot to make a layup.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

This offensive play was incredibly smooth, and even in away games, spectators couldn't help but cheer for Wade.

13:8!

The Heat are only down by 5 points.

When Wei Guo played point guard, he perfected the Nets' defense, but his offense was weaker than when he played small forward. This is because the point guard position is more about connecting and organizing teammates' offense and is the team's offensive initiator, but not the primary scorer. When Wei Guo played small forward, he was responsible for 70% of the team's offense.

The Nets are on offense. Wei Guo drives and passes the ball to the three-point line, where Hill gets an open three-pointer!

"Rebound!!"

Hill knew the shot was off as soon as he took it!

Wei Guo reacted quickly...

After the basketball hit the rim, he grabbed the offensive rebound and then swished the ball under Odom's arm.

Trying to catch the moon's reflection in the sea!

Odom instinctively turned around, but the basketball was behind him. Wei Guo jumped up and gently flicked it.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball swished through the net.

15:8!!

Barkley said, "Watching Wei Guo play is an ultimate enjoyment; he can use any move with ease."

Johnson, “…”

Barkley was a staunch patriot, and he didn't want to argue with Barkley on this issue, and he felt the same way.

The difference between a superstar and an ordinary player is that every goal a regular player scores feels incredibly difficult, while for a superstar, once the ball is in their hands, it feels like the ball is going to go in.

......

The first quarter has ended.

29:21!!

The Heat are down by 8 points.

Wei Guo played the entire first quarter, scoring 10 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block. His lackluster stats made Cummings think that Wei Guo would easily get a triple-double in this game.

Not only this one...

In the next two games, Wei Guo will continue to play point guard, and he will definitely get another triple-double.

A triple-double in three consecutive games, especially in the playoffs... This is something a star player could boast about for a lifetime, but it was so commonplace for Wei Guo.

"Let Wei-ge rest for a while in the second quarter."

Gentry said, "The Heat will also field their bench, so we'll use our bench to go head-to-head with them."

......

At the start of the second quarter, Jones and Grant rested, and Alston and Haslem came on in.

The Heat aren't as wealthy as the Nets...

From the first round to the second round of the playoffs, they basically used an eight-player rotation. Wade, Butler, and Odom played the entire game. In contrast, the Nets often used a five-in-five-out system in their games against the Knicks, with a maximum rotation of 12 players.

On-field lineup:

Brooklyn Nets: Stockton, Kiddels, Jefferson, Kenyon, Collins

Miami Heat: Alston, Wade, Butler, Odom, Haslem

Alston dribbled and bounced, making three consecutive spins to reach the free-throw line, then delivered another fancy crossover pass, and the ball ended up in Odom's hands.

Odom receives the ball and goes for a layup.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

29:23!!

Tyronn Lue said, "This guy's status at Rucker Park is comparable to Jordan's status in the league."

"That's very high..."

Wei Guo casually asked, "Why did he come to NbA?"

"For my basketball dream? Besides, the NBA pays more...you can't earn that much playing streetball."

"This story is very inspiring."

Gentry said, "However, Alston's weaknesses are too obvious; he's too skinny... He simply can't defend against stronger defenders!"

Neither Gentry nor Wei Guo could see through it.

The Heat don't have a traditional point guard. They don't need Alston's defense; what they need is Alston's skillful dribbling, dazzling fakes, and unbelievable passes. As the saying goes, a novice can defeat a master. To deal with the Nets, a team with almost no weaknesses, they need to come up with some unconventional tactics.

......

Seven minutes into the second quarter, Wei Guo returned to the court, replacing Jefferson.

Stockton and Kenyon remained on the court, while Mourning and Hill also entered the game... This change was intended to allow Stockton to play the entire second quarter and also to alleviate some of the organizational pressure on Weiguo.

41:35!!

The Nets lead by 6 points.

Wei Guo said, "Let's roll up our sleeves and widen the gap, then the second half will be much easier."

"Um???"

The Nets players were completely baffled; where did the sleeves on their jerseys come from?

Wei Guo rarely makes a witty remark, but his teammates have absolutely no sense of humor, which makes Wei Guo feel like he's talking to a brick wall. He can only focus his energy on the game.

The Nets are on offense. Wei Guo and Stockton execute a simple pick-and-roll at the free-throw line. Wei Guo receives a pass from Stockton and faces the basket for an attack!

"Bang!!!"

With a powerful two-handed dunk, Grant was knocked out of bounds.

"mVp!"

"mVp!"

"mVp!"

The audience began to cheer for Wei Guo.

This made James extremely envious. When will he be able to win the regular season MVP award?
