Chapter 225 The Heat Conquer Tianwang Mountain
American Airlines Arena in Miami.
The Miami Heat, who are back at home tonight, will usher in the battle against the Indiana Pacers.
The previous four games were tied at 2:2.
Such a big score makes it difficult for many Heat fans to accept.
In their view, the Heat should easily defeat the Pacers like the Lakers.
But the reality slapped them hard. Based on the current situation, it is still unclear who can reach the finals between the Heat and the Pacers.
The battle of Tianwangshan tonight is the key. Looking at the entire history of the NBA, the team that can win in Tianwangshan has an 82% probability of final promotion.
This is a very scary statistic, that is to say, as long as you win tonight's game, you will have a high probability of advancing to the finals!
Players from both sides are warming up before the game. It can be seen that they are all nervous.
Especially for the Pacers players, many young people on the team experienced such a big scene for the first time.
The Heat's situation is better. After all, they are the defending champions and have already experienced strong winds and waves.
Not to mention how the state is tonight, at least on the psychological level, it has a certain advantage.
What's more, this is still fighting on their own home court.
Soon the warm-up is over and the game officially begins.
The Pacers won the first wave of offense.
Paul George used the cover to get an open shot, but unfortunately the strength was a little stronger, and the basketball bounced out of the frame!
James actively rushed to grab the defensive rebound and quickly pushed the fast break.
Flash Wade took the lead, and James threw a quarterback-style long pass, assisting Wade to complete the alley-oop!
The first ball in the opening game, from the classic Janeway connection!
In the next round, Wade completed a steal on the defensive end.
James immediately rushed towards the front court, and the Flash reciprocated, and also passed an alley-oop to James.
Two consecutive alley-oops immediately ignited the atmosphere of the home fans.
"LeBron and Dwyane really have a good understanding. Their defensive counterattack is very sharp. If they are the opponents in the finals, we must treat them with caution!"
In the Lakers training hall, everyone is watching the game.
Mustache babbled all the time.
Don't look at what he's saying right now, if he really encounters some trouble in the game, he won't be able to blow a fart.
"Qin, which one is stronger between the two of us or the two of them?"
At this time, Kobe suddenly said to Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, he hadn't thought about this question.
The combination of him and Kobe is just right for James and Wei.
To say that in a one-on-one situation, he and Kobe are not afraid of each other, but if they are tied together, it is not necessarily true.
Anyway, this is already the third season that the two of Jane and Wei have cooperated, and the tacit understanding between them has almost reached the realm of seamlessness!
They don't even need to talk, look, or move on the court to understand what the other party wants to do.
And between him and Kobe, although there is a tacit understanding, it has not yet reached the level of Janeway.
"It goes without saying that Kobe, you and Qin must be better. Both you and Qin have regular season mvp, but Dwyane doesn't."
Gasol said with a sudden smile.
Howard next to him said, "But LeBron has three of them, more than all of them combined..."
As soon as he said this, Howard seemed to realize that something was wrong, and his voice stopped abruptly.
The others stared at him one by one, and the atmosphere seemed extremely awkward for a moment.
"Ahem, it's not because Qin played for a year. If he has played for so many years like LeBron, it doesn't matter who has more mvp!"
Steve Nash took the lead in breaking the embarrassment.
Seeing a step down, Howard called out quickly, and he immediately said: "Steve is right, I actually mean it too!"
At this time, Qin Xiao also said: "We will be the stronger group, because there are everyone. I believe that as long as we go all out, there is no opponent we cannot defeat!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone suddenly felt excited.
"Good boy, well said!"
"Guys, hurry up and adjust, and restore your state to the best before the finals!"
Kobe was a little surprised by Qin Xiao's answer, but he was also very satisfied.
……
The game between the Heat and the Pacers is still going on, and the first half of the game has come to an end.
The Heat, at home, only led by two points, and the suspense remained in the second half.
Fans on both sides are very nervous at this time, and so are the players.
Backstage in the visiting team's locker room.
"Paul, in the second half you need to take on more scoring responsibilities, and you have to be more decisive in your shots. Others try to create better offensive space for him."
Pacers coach Vogel pinned his hopes on third-year Paul George.
This is also a no-brainer. After all, the team does not have a superstar to sit in charge, which is their most obvious shortcoming.
On the other side, in the home team locker room.
"We need to continue this aggressiveness in the second half!"
"LeBron and Dwyane, you must continue to cause damage and unleash your full strength!"
"Chris, you need to be there for both of them at all times, as for the others, be ready to catch and shoot at any time."
Coach Spoelstra gestured on the tactical board.
A moment later, the second half of the game started, and the two of James and Way began to attack the Pacers in turn.
They are like the two sharpest war blades on the field, cutting through the opponent's defense time and time again!
The Pacers, who were able to stalemate with the Heat in the first half, were a little overwhelmed in the second half.
Under the tremendous pressure, the young Paul George couldn't bear it.
Although he also got some good shots, he missed most of them.
With the Flash breaking through and scoring a layup, the Heat opened the point difference to double digits.
The two sides entered the last quarter of the contest, the Pacers' role players suddenly broke out, and they narrowed the point difference to three points!
Seeing that he was about to tie the point difference, LeBron James broke out completely. He shot from inside and outside and scored eight points in a row.
While helping the team stabilize the situation, it also completely wiped out the Pacers' last expectations.
Finally, the game is over.
