Since the time entered February, the Heat have started a crazy streak. From February 3 to February 14 on the All-Star weekend, the Heat won a wave of seven silently. The winning streak, and immediately after the All-Star weekend, the Heat continued their winning streak.
The 20th defeated the Eagles, the 21st won the Bulls, and the 23rd won the 76ers, raising the winning streak to 10 games.
If there is little historical conflict with another time and space, the Heat will continue to win, from February to March, winning until the 28th game against the Bulls.
This wave of "swinging" breathtaking 27-game winning streak became the second longest winning streak in NBA history, second only to the 33-game winning streak maintained by the Lakers, and the best expression of the Miami Heat’s strength after the run-in. .
Wang Xiao had the idea of interrupting the Heat's three-game winning streak. After all, even if the Heat have a 27-game winning streak, it is unlikely to be the opponent of this Wizards team.
However, the Heat were very lucky to go through the schedule. During their 27-game winning streak, there was no game against the Wizards.
The same Eastern team, the two teams will play four times this season, each have two games at home and away.
In the first game of the two teams in early December, the Heat challenged the Wizards away.
As in the previous two years, the Heat were not opponents of the Wizards in the game. They were once again killed by Curry and others with a three-pointer "chaotic" punch. The final total score was 113:89 and they lost a full 24 points .
In the second game, in mid-December, the Heat returned to the home to want revenge, and in the first two quarters of the game, relying on the outbreak of James and Wade successfully occupied the advantage and initiative.
However, with the start of the third quarter, after the Wizards came off the bench, the advantage they finally got was buried in a blink of an eye. Afterwards, even if James and other main players re-entered the stage, they were still weak, and finally a weak score of 109:107 Poorly defeated.
After one guest and one home, there are only two games left between the Heat and the Wizards, and the third game is played a month later, that is, when 13 years are near the end of January, this game is still the home of the Heat. , But the Heat failed to win the game.
In the whole game, the Heat played no problem. James in the Big Three scored 28 points, Wade 21 points, Bosh 18 points, the three combined 67 points, and the bench is also very good. Ray Allen scored 20 points in a single shot, and Mike Miller also had a rare feeling that he scored once and scored 13 points. The total score of these five people alone is 100 points.
It can be said that the Heat played a very classic perfect game.
But this still failed to win the Wizards.
Because the Wizards' performance is more perfect.
Curry had 31 points, George had 19 points, Thompson had 17 points, Leonard had 15 points and Whiteside had 14 points. The starting five scored in all double figures, while Jamison, Jimmy Butler and Chandler came off the bench. Parsons also scored in double figures.
Eight of the team scored in double figures and scored 121 points in the fourth quarter. In this case, how can the Heat win?
This can't help but give the Heat a deep sense of powerlessness, especially James. Every time he plays the Wizards, James has tried his best to defeat the Wizards. After all, if he can't even win a game in the regular season, the postseason How can the match against the Wizards win?
The Heat have collapsed in front of the Wizards in the playoffs for two consecutive seasons. If they continue to do so, he may really want a life-long rhythm!
However, James played the Wizards as hard as he could. The Wizards did their best every time they played the Heat.

Wang Xiao often asks Curry and others to take turns in daily games, but when facing the Heat, the Wizards have never had a rest.
Wang Xiao doesn't want to lose to the Heat. Whether it's public or private, the Wizards can't lose to the Heat.
Therefore, the duel with the Heat has always been Wang Xiao's most demanding game. Anyone who does not play well on the court will replace it without hesitation.
This season, the Wizards' final game against the Heat was on April 10, the moment when the regular season was coming to an end.
Unfortunately, at that time, the Heat's 27-game winning streak has been ended by the Bulls, and because of this wave of "sweeping" victorious streak, the Heat's team confidence will be cultivated.
By then, the Wizards will usher in the challenge of the Heat in the strongest state.
...
After the end of the All-Star weekend and the trade deadline, the Heat continue to maintain a winning streak, and the Wizards also maintain a high winning rate.
In the remaining 5 games in February, the Wizards scored 4 wins and 1 loss, and as the time came to March, the game began to become slightly easier.
Except for the March 1 game against the Knicks and the March 21 game against the Nets, the Wizards did not have a strong rival in March.
March 3 against the 76ers, March 6 against the Timberwolves, March 8 against the Bobcats, March 12 against the Cavaliers... Bucks, Hornets, Suns, Warriors, Lakers, Pistons, Magic, these teams A "color" is all the teams in the middle and lower ranks of the East and West, and even the bottom.
Including the Lakers.
The Lakers super f4 combination has almost completely failed.
Before the All-Star game, the Lakers had a terrible record and only ranked tenth in the West. Many people seriously doubted that, according to the current state of the Lakers, it is impossible to enter the playoffs.
In fact, it is the same. If it wasn’t for the Kobe Bryant universe after the All-Star break, averaging 40+ minutes per game, and dragging the Lakers forward with the same fate, then the Lakers may really miss the playoffs this season.
In the last 22 games, the Lakers scored 14 wins and 6 losses with a win rate of 63%. Although this win rate cannot be compared with the Wizards, Heat, Spurs Trail Blazers and other teams, if the win rate can be maintained throughout the season If that happens, the Lakers will score 50 wins and have no pressure to enter the playoffs.
And this win rate is still in the case of Nash, Gasol frequently missed, and Howard's poor condition, relying on Kobe alone.
Of course, the Lakers and Kobe also paid a painful price for this. On April 12, Kobe Bryant tore the Achilles tendon in the game against the Golden State Warriors, ending the season game early, and the regular season is only left. The next 2 games...
This injury almost destroyed Kobe’s remaining career. He was reimbursed in the 13-14 season. He only played 35 games in the 14-15 season. In the 15-16 season, he played 66 games, averaging 35.8%. After scoring 17.6 points and leading the Lakers to a 17-65 Western Conference record, Kobe chose to retire.
...
The Lakers are over. At least in the eyes of Wang Xiao, a traverser, even in 19 years, the Lakers who failed to make the playoffs under the leadership of James have definitely failed in these years. In the 19-20 season, they won After Davis, it is difficult to determine whether the Lakers can rise. After all, whether it is for the giants Lakers or James who is aspiring to be the first person in history, failure to win a championship means failure.
