Start by Maxing Out the Attack Talent, Kobe Is Jealous

In the 2001 NBA Draft, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Wei Guo with the 58th overall pick in the second round, from Georgetown University. With that statement, Wei Guo became the second Chinese pla...

Chapter 406 What's so difficult about winning the match?

There are two types of failures that are particularly hard to accept.

One type is losing by tens of points, which is called a massacre; the other type is losing by one or two points, which is called a decisive defeat.

On the contrary, losing by 70, 80 or 90 points is easier to accept. You can look for various reasons for the failure. When reviewing the game afterward, you might think that if you had made a few more three-pointers, you might have won the game, or that you could have defended against the opponent's small offensive run.

The Heat have won two games in a row!

These are the two most unacceptable defeats: being slaughtered in the first game and being defeated in the second.

Especially the match that just ended...

After the Heat took the lead in the fourth quarter, the audience really saw the light of victory. In the final moments, Joe Johnson's game-winning shot failed, and when O'Neal grabbed the crucial rebound, many fans began to cheer.

This competition is like a roller coaster.

No one could have predicted that Wade's layup in the final moments would be blocked by Joe Johnson, and after the block, the ball fell into Marion's hands. When Marion passed the ball to Wade, the audience only had two words in their minds: It's over.

Back in the locker room, several Heat players couldn't accept the defeat, and even the toughest of them shed tears!

This is normal...

The championship is the ultimate goal for every professional player.

Victory was within reach, but it was stolen by the opponent. No one could accept it... Van Gundy comforted the players, saying that the Finals had just begun, the series was 2-1, and the Heat still had many opportunities.

This game also shows that the Suns are not invincible. They were behind for most of the time and were just lucky. As for Wade being blocked, it's not Wade's fault. The 24-second shot clock was about to expire, and Wade had to shoot, which was another excellent scoring opportunity.

Wade didn't think that way; he pounded on the locker to vent his anger!

Why did he go for a layup? Couldn't he just dunk? If he had changed his layup to a two-handed dunk, would Joe Johnson still have had a chance to block him?

Even a layup...

Why was he so confident? Why didn't he observe the defender's position before making the layup?

Away game locker room.

Wei Guo lay sprawled on the floor.

I'm so tired...

This position made it easier for his teammates, so Nash rested his head on Wei Guo's arm, Joe Johnson rested his head on Wei Guo's thigh, Stoudemire simply lay on Wei Guo's chest, and several other players were also curled up on the floor, they needed to rest.

82 regular season games.

The playoffs consisted of 4 games in the first round, 4 games in the second round, 4 games in the Western Conference Finals, plus the previous three NBA Finals games.

This season... the Suns have played 97 games, some of which went into overtime, but none of them have been as tiring as this one. Even the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs didn't have this level of intensity, so it's no wonder that after the game, they were all lying on the floor, not wanting to move.

The floor is cold...

D'Antoni reminded the players to take care of their bodies, but he couldn't pull anyone up. Finally, seeing that Cummings, who hadn't played, was also lying down, D'Antoni had no choice but to give up.

The next game is even more important!

The Heat will definitely fight back; I wonder what kind of fierce battle it will be.

......

Two days later, the fourth game of the finals began.

A Japanese song is playing at American Airlines Arena:

"It's a big city, but I'm a servant."

Tou no house, empty space, empty space

Mutual communication, knowing each other is the best

I love you, I love you, I love you forever, I love you forever

The world is ending, leaving is the end

そう愿っていた, thousands of nights と

The time of violence is the same, and the reason is the brightness of the time.

やつれ开った,心までも,壊す

はかなき思い, このtragedy, Night...”

......

Starting lineup for this match:

Miami Heat: Kidd, Wade, Eddie Jones, Haslem, O'Neal

Suns: Nash, Joe Johnson, Wei Guo, Marion, Stoudemire

......

Wade's eyes were firm and confident; Wei Guo had seen that look once before.

Last year in the playoffs, when the Heat were down 2-0, Wade had this look in his eyes. The sweep was inevitable, but Wade still caused the Nets a lot of trouble in the last two games. Wei Guo said at the time, "With time... Wade will definitely become a superstar."

Tonight's match looks like it's going to be tough...

"Beep!!!"

The whistle blew, and the game began.

The Suns are on offense.

Nash dribbled the ball up the court, gave a tactical signal, indicating that Stoudemire should step up and set a screen. After driving to the basket, he passed the ball to Stoudemire.

Stoudemire takes a mid-range shot!

Wei Guo immediately rushed towards the basket...

This is a keen sense of the game; as soon as Stoudemire took the shot, Wei Guo knew it was going to miss.

Just as O'Neal turned to face the basket, he suddenly felt the arena lights dim. He looked down but saw that it wasn't his own shadow.

"Bang!!!"

The basketball had just bounced off the rim when Wei Guo, perched on O'Neal's head, dunked the ball into the basket.

2-0!!!

Audience: ヾ(??﹏?)??

Audience: …(⊙_⊙;)…

Audience: (⊙﹏⊙)b

This is the Heat's home court. If it were the Suns' home court, this dunk would definitely ignite the frontcourt.

......

"このtragedy, Night

このtragedy, Night...”

......

Coincidentally, the song "Until the End of the World" had just finished playing.

Wei Guo grabbed the rim, landed lightly, turned around and ran back to the backcourt... Even the most explosive dunk can only score two points. The game has just begun, and defense cannot be ignored if you want to win.

The Heat are on offense.

Kidd dribbled to the free-throw line, bounced the ball to Wade, who received it, took a one-handed big loop jump step to avoid Marion, and then shot off the backboard.

"bass!!!"

The basketball bounced into the hoop.

2:2!!!

Wade's offense was very decisive.

This is definitely Van Gundy's tactic. No matter how many superstars the Heat have, someone still needs to step up and carry the team. Undoubtedly, Wade is that chosen one.

The Suns made a passing error!

After Miller stole the ball, his layup attempt was caught by Wei Guo. Miller jumped, turned, and passed the ball to Kidd outside the three-point line. This move was quite difficult for Miller, given his age. Despite his age, he was still able to turn in mid-air to find his opponent and accurately pass the ball to his teammate. This is a level of performance only seen in his prime.

After receiving the ball, Kidd raised his hand to make a shooting fake, and Marion behind him jumped up and was also faked out, so Kidd took the three-point shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

2:5!!!

The Heat were very efficient offensively and took an early lead.

Van Gundy clenched his fist. If he could maintain this momentum, how difficult would it be to win this game?

The Suns aren't a monolithic team. Excluding the crushing defeat in Game 2, the Suns played very well in the last game. The Heat maintained their lead for most of the time, especially in the fourth quarter, where they led for most of the game. If it weren't for a bit of bad luck, and if it weren't for Joe Johnson's block...

If it weren't for Lady Luck's favor... the Heat would have been the winner.

That's really strange!

He was practically shooting three-pointers haphazardly the whole game, how did Wei Guo manage such a high shooting percentage?!
