Vol 3 Chapter 255: Heat

On April 9, Anluo went to Miami with the team to challenge the Heat in an away game. This trip to the East Coast is more like a trip than a race. For this city with almost no winter, April has a comfortable climate and is very suitable for vacation. However, for the two teams that played against each other this night, it is impossible to take a vacation this year.
The Heat are now eighth in the East. Although it is basically certain that they can enter the playoffs, the Raptors, ranked first in the East, are not the best choice. If they want to have a chance to go further in the playoffs, they must win this game. As long as they win, they are likely to face the Celtics as seventh. Although the Celtics are equally strong, after all, without Irving and others, the Heat's chances are naturally greater. Therefore, they still attach great importance to this competition.
The Thunder's attitude is completely different. Westbrook and Paul George also took their teammates out to have fun before the game. Miami is much more prosperous than Oklahoma City, and there are many interesting places.
Therefore, on this night, the Thunder's performance is not like a championship-level team. They only maintained a lead of more than 5 minutes in the first quarter. After that he was overtaken by the Heat, and has never had a chance to recover.
Westbrook has no desire to score in this game. His averaging data this season has reached 20.4 points, 9.8 rebounds and 12.5 assists. He is only a little short of rebounds per game from a triple-double. Although he himself did not express any desire in words, the feat of averaging a triple-double for two consecutive seasons is still very tempting for him. After all, this record is close at hand.
In this alliance, maybe no one is not interested in this kind of achievement! After all, it's not much worse. Why don't you work hard for things that are within your reach? If you change to a team with a bad record, everyone may use this as an excuse to criticize Westbrook. The label of "flashing data" should be affixed to him with justice and awe. But judging from the Thunder's record in these two seasons, there won't be any problems. Westbrook's scoring is getting lower and lower, but his assist-to-turnover ratio is getting higher. In addition, the Thunder used the counterattack to score top in the league. Among them, Westbrook's counterattack after grabbing rebounds accounted for a large proportion.
Therefore, Westbrook's position on the court is more reliable. At this time Adams's role was fully reflected. He fought near the free throw line, took Whiteside away from the basket, and opened up the space. Paul George didn't have too much offensive desire. Maybe it was because I played too much before, and the whole game was listless. In the first quarter, he tried a few shots from outside the three-point line, but they all ended up with iron. After that, Paul George didn't make any more moves.
An Luo played normally. These guys Westbrook didn't take him as usual when they went out, and of course Ferguson. The two of these guys have always only stayed in the hotel and played games. After all, his age is not up to the standard, and An Luo can be regarded as a public figure, and it is easy to cause some trouble.
In the second half of the game, the Heat played a 13:2 offensive climax under the leadership of Richardson and Johnson, and instantly opened the point difference to as much as 15 points. Subsequently, under the tenacious counterattack of Westbrook and An Luo, the Thunder once chased the score to only 5 points. But with Wade's block and a dunk, the Heat's momentum once again overwhelmed the Thunder.
Although Wade returned to the Heat smoothly in the mid-to-late season and is no longer the omnipotent Flash, he can still stand up to help the Heat at critical moments. Just like this game, seeing the Heat will be wiped out by the Thunder, when the home team's momentum is getting weaker, he stepped up.
Felton advances with the ball. He pressed the rhythm a little at the top of the arc. In the first few minutes, the rhythm of the Thunder is too fast. After changing the rotation lineup, the players are lacking in personal abilities. If they continue to run like this, they will definitely go into trouble. As a veteran of the mixed alliance for many years, he naturally understands what he should do. But as soon as he paused, the Heat's players flooded in. Wadeka was on Ferguson's side and stretched out his arm to prevent him from catching the ball. But Kanter's off-the-ball screen allowed Ferguson to get rid of Wade's entanglement. After he went around the screen, he immediately received a basketball from Felton. Ferguson didn't hesitate, he just pulled it up and wanted to shoot.
His movements are not slow. But someone is faster than him! Just when he was about to throw the ball out, a black figure shrouded from behind. Everyone on the scene saw it. The 36-year-old Wade fell from the sky and slapped the ball off ~EbookFREE.me~Ferguson had no idea what happened! He looked so confused that after Wade jumped up for the second time to control the ball, he hadn't reacted very positively.
After grabbing the ball, Wade entered the "Flash" mode in an instant. His speed is too fast! It's not like a 36-year-old man at all, not to mention that this old man is still dragging a leg that is nearly half disabled!
No one on the court can catch up with Wade. After he crossed the free-throw line, his right leg slammed into the sky. The ball in his right hand was stretched straight, the whole body was like a long drawn bow, and the ball was pushed into the basket with a bang.
"Oh, MyGod!"
"Unbelievable!"
Wade, who succeeded in dunking, patted his chest fiercely, then fanned his hands to greet the fans at the scene and applaud him. It can be seen that he himself is very excited! In his fifteen years of career, there are too many such to count, but this time it is very rare. All Miami fans unanimously chanted the "MVP" slogan. At that moment, everything seemed to be back to 2006. The Flash, who almost destroyed the entire Mavericks defense line by himself, returned to the American Airlines Arena again.
An Luo also stood up on the bench to applaud the veteran. It is totally uncontrollable. He can be said to have grown up watching players such as Kobe, McGrady, James and Wade. Now that he has entered this league, the players who were horrified in the past are also old. It is not easy to see them flying on the court again!
In the end, the Heat won the game. Although Wade did not have a particularly eye-catching performance afterwards, this ball is enough for the more than 10,000 fans on the scene.
