342. Desperate three-pointer(1/2)
ps: In order to be more coherent, today’s three chapters are written into two chapters~~
Is the Cavaliers still a chance? Wu Dawei doesn't know, but what he understands is that he will never give up this game!
Dwyne Wade's quick drop helped the Miami Heat equalize the score. The ball rights were once again returned to the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Chauncey Billups regained the ball rights. This time, he was more cautious than the previous time.
After coming to the frontcourt, Wu Dawei got the ball. He faced LeBron James' defense outside the three-point line. Since the Miami Heat sent their lineup tonight again at this time, Mike Miller played an unequal match with Valaijo at this time.
Wu Dawei passed the ball to Valaijo who easily stuck Miller in the low post, and then Valaijo made a move to play the former with his back. When he advanced to the paint area, he attracted James' double-teams, which was a matter of a moment. When James just moved towards Valaijo, Valaijo passed the ball back to Wu Dawei!
Wu Dawei moved horizontally to the side and opened some distance between him and James. When he received the return pass, James also saved the ball at the same time, but Wu Dawei made a shot directly!
At this moment, even the extremely noisy American Airlines Center was silent, as if everyone was holding their breath at this moment!
Wu Dawei ignored James' return to defense at all. He devoted himself to this shot and resolutely jumped at the first time, so that James, who was returning to defense, also understood that it was difficult for him to block this shot, so he did not continue to pounce forward, because he was afraid of scratching Wu Dawei.
At this time, even LeBron James, the pride of heaven, could only watch Wu Dawei throw the ball into the basket on the ground!
A wonderful arc penetrated everyone's nerves and then plunged into the net!
104:102!
At this extremely critical moment, Wu Dawei was not ruthless!
"yeah!"
In the Cleveland Cavaliers' players' seat, everyone couldn't help but shout for this ball. The team's boss Gilbert wanted the whole world to hear his screams! Just like LeBron James was not willing to lose to the Cleveland Cavaliers. For Gilbert, winning no one would eliminate James in the playoffs would make him more excited...
"Wu Dawei's mid-range shot is a life-sustaining shot!" Ernie Johnson said before Barkley: "Otherwise, if the Cavaliers fail this time, they will likely collapse directly!"
"This is not necessarily!" Barkley was stolen from the line and the Cavaliers' passive situation at this time. He felt a little unhappy and couldn't help but retort. But the Miami Heat then slapped the fat man.
After the offense and defense transition, the Heat's offensive remained unabated. Wade and James cooperated at a high position, and then James made a strong breakthrough in the inside. Wu Dawei's block was just a little bit worse, but just a little bit was enough for the Miamis to tie the score again!
104:104!
At this time, the game had entered the last three minutes of the fourth quarter. Such a anxious score was really difficult to tell who would become the final winner of this game in the end.
But soon, people gradually saw some clues. Because the pace of the game was slowly controlled by the Miami Heat, who was the pursuer. After the 104th draw, the two sides then tied 106 and 108 draws...
Until more than one minute left in the game, the two sides tied 110! The ball was in the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the Cavaliers made a mistake at this critical moment!
The Miamis regained control of the ball, but the Cleveland Cavaliers retreated very quickly, so LeBron James did not rush to launch a fast break after getting the ball, but stabilized the situation and passed half just after halftime.
At this time, the cheers from the American Airlines Center were uncontrollable, and everyone was hoarse at the top of their lungs to cheer for the Miami Heat. No one on the sidelines could sit still because they saw that the team they supported was about to complete a 16-point comeback!
At this time, even the calmest person cannot face such a scene calmly.
The sound of cheering for the Miami Heat sounded uniformly in the stadium. LeBron James was in control of the ball at a high position, and Wu Dawei was defending in front of him. The game came to Cleveland's half, but it seemed like a layer of cloud was covering everyone's heads on the Cleveland Cavaliers!
Daniel Gilbert is no longer in his previous good mood at this moment. He stood behind the player's seat nervously, looking nervous, of course he is really afraid that the Miami people's dream will come true.
If the Miami Heat really turned the tables, what a huge blow for everyone on the Cleveland Cavaliers! Gilbert didn't know if others could withstand such a reversal, but Gilbert felt that he was completely unacceptable.
Some past suddenly sounded in his mind. The former Detroit Pistons and the former Phoenix Suns were both behind the teams with lower rankings 3-1 in the first round of the playoffs, but in the end they all made a comeback! Will the Cleveland Cavaliers be the next Los Angeles Lakers or the Orlando Magic?
James controlled the ball, Wade ran back from the baseline, Bosh made a wall, Miller and Charmos were ambushing on both sides. James broke through Bosh's pick-and-roll, but Wu Dawei followed him tightly, and his backing did not make him lose his position in this breakthrough contest.
But LeBron James was not ready to attack at all. He broke through the inside and jumped up in the paint area, but he chose to pass the ball the moment he was about to land! Even though Wu Dawei had a premonition before this, he, who was also in the air, was no longer able to stop Dwyne Wade, who had cut to the inside!
James attracted all the attention. When Wade got the ball inside, his jump was not disturbed at all!
Wade fills the frame with both hands!
110:112! The Miami Heat took the lead for the first time in the second half! At this time, there was only the last minute left!
The cheers at the American Airlines Center were even more deafening. Every Miami person who did not leave early was raising his arms and shouting. The joy on everyone's face was telling their excitement and excitement at this moment!
In contrast to this, the Cleveland Cavaliers' player seat was in the Cleveland Cavaliers. Head coach Byron Scott helplessly used his last chance to pause. The first sentence that called the players to his side was Scott: "Don't give up! We still have a chance!"
"We have to ensure the success rate of the next attack! Then, we will have the chance to tie the score or even overtake the score!"
Just like what Byron Scott said to the players during the timeout, although the Miami Heat re-overtake was completed, the Cleveland Cavaliers were not in a desperate situation. They still had a great chance to win the game again, and all hope was placed on the next attack!
As long as the Cavaliers can play, they can still maintain a balanced position on the court at least! So, this timeout, what the Cavaliers do is to attack the next attack. Similarly, on the other hand, the focus of Miami Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra is also placed on the next defense!
"Defend this attack from the Clevelanders, we can turn the tables! We can complete a 16-point reversal! Then, we can go to Cleveland and bring the game back to Miami! Do you want to be eliminated by a team that ranks much lower than ourselves?!"
"Don't want it!" Almost all Miami players said in unison at this moment. The game has been played, and both sides have already seen a bayonet, and their momentum and emotions have been infected at this moment. The Miami players' words are firm! No hesitation or doubt are allowed!
The time for the suspension is coming soon and the game is about to begin again.
Although the atmosphere in the stadium was already warm at this time, every player who walked onto the stadium tried to make his mood calmer. Because the next attack might completely change the fate of the two teams themselves.
The Cleveland Cavaliers sent a sideline ball in the frontcourt, and after Chauncey Billups got the ball, the timer began to count down the last minute of the game.
Tension began to spread out from the stadium. At this moment, even the most careless person did not dare to take a breath. Everyone held their breath and stared at the stadium with their eyes tightly, for fear of missing a wonderful and decisive moment!
This moment almost appeared in the next second! With the last 50 seconds left in the game, Billups made a mistake! Dwyne Wade made a stunning achievement!
The Miami Heat stole the ball this time, and they turned to defense and had a 2-point lead on the court at this time!
"Oh ~ Dwyne Wade! This is a decisive steal! The Miami Heat can see the dawn of victory! They now have full control of the initiative on the court, they can quickly play an offense, and then they can get another offense after the Cleveland Cavaliers!"
Ernie Johnson, sitting in the commentary seat, was as excited as the Miami fans in the American Airlines Center! He couldn't wait to shout, even hoping that the game would end in the next second, announcing that this big reversal was explained by him!
However, the Miami Heat did not intend to complete a snatch. Amid the roar of head coach Spoelstra on the sidelines, the Miami Heat lowered the rhythm. Dwyne Wade held the ball at a high position, but he did not attack, but was waiting for the loss of time minute by minute.
When the offensive time limit was left for the last 8 seconds, Dwayne Wade moved, forcibly broke through Anthony Parker's defense and rushed into the inside. At this time, the Cavaliers players all rushed over him and rushed forward. No one had any extra room for thinking.
Wade attracted almost all the double-teams, and then... he split the ball out, and LeBron James followed up and received the ball. The next second, he filled the frame with both hands!
110:114!
The last 30 seconds left in the game, and it looks like the Miami Heat are sure to win!
"yeah!"
Floyd Mothers, who was sitting on the sidelines, could finally lift his arms and exclaim his inner emotions. He held back a second half of the game, and finally, a miracle happened at the last moment!
"The Miami Heat led the Cavaliers by 4 points with the last 30 seconds left in the game. The Cavaliers have no timeouts. It seems that they are in a desperate situation in this game!"
After the Miami Heat scored, the Cavaliers sent a baseline ball. They did not have a timeout, so they could only rely on five players on the court in the last 30 seconds. But at this time, all Cleveland players were panicked, confused and... lost.
With a 16-point lead, they were overtaken by the Miamis in this quarter by 20 points! How did this play!?
No one knew, so everyone was even more disappointed.
Amid the excitement and cheers of the American Airlines Center, the Cleveland Cavaliers took the ball through the half. Compared with the Miami people who were in high spirits, they were like down-and-out vagabonds at this time. Without any energy, they seemed to have really lost their skills.
"How is it!? This is my territory!" LeBron James was still the one who faced Wu Dawei. After returning to halftime, facing Wu Dawei who was running over hurriedly, James took the initiative to speak to Wu Dawei for a long time.
But that was not a good intention. His mockery and sarcasm made Wu Dawei look slightly, and then he put his mind back in the game. At this time, for Wu Dawei, it was not a good time to argue with James.
Just like James doesn't want to lose this game, Wu Dawei doesn't want to be the footnote and foil for a big reversal! He clenched his fists, just like LeBron James is the least willing to lose to the Cavaliers. The team Wu Dawei wants to win the most may be the Miami Heat that he abandoned last summer!
But the Miami people's defense this time is very tight, and the Cavaliers find it difficult to find opportunities, and time is still passing by minute by minute!
15 seconds have passed, and the Cleveland Cavaliers still have no way to find an opportunity. In this case, everyone in the area on the Cavaliers' players' table has revealed endless disappointment. From the big score lead to the powerless return of the sky at the last moment, this is an unacceptable gap. At least the Cavaliers boss Daniel Gilbert is completely unacceptable!
"Damn it!"
Looking at the less and less time, Gilbert couldn't help but curse. At this time, a hint of exclamation suddenly sounded from the American Airlines Center!
Billups circled around the three-point line and did not find any good opportunities. At this time, Kaman had already stuck on the sideline of the 45 unicorn paint area on the right. So Billups, who was in a high position, passed the ball to Wu Dawei, who was also standing outside the three-point line on the right. He wanted Wu Dawei to pass the ball to Chris Kaman from his angle, but what he didn't expect was that after Wu Dawei received the ball, he jumped up and shot directly!
Outside the three-point line, in such a position where he almost never takes action! Wu Dawei had no thoughts or hesitation when he received the ball. He just saw that the countdown on the timer was about to enter the last ten seconds, and there was only one thought left in his mind, and there was no time!
So, Wu Dawei jumped up without hesitation! He rarely shot three-pointers in the game, but this does not mean that he can't shoot!
The moment the basketball flew out of Wu Dawei's hand, everyone had just reacted. Then the ball still drilled into the basket!
113:114!
Only one point left! The American Airlines Center was silent for a while, and the Cavaliers players cheered and cheered!
At this time, people discovered that the Miami Heat had not stopped. So, after Wu Dawei scored, the Miami people directly sent the ball out without delaying it, in James's hand. At this time, Wu Dawei had already rushed towards James and hugged the latter, the referee blew the whistle.
With the last 8 seconds left in the game, LeBron James has two free throws!
"James only needs to make two free throws, they will at least be able to ensure that they will not lose this game in regular time!"
James stood on the free throw line, and made a steadily free throw! 113:115! However, his second free throw was amid the cheers of fans all over the court. The rebound was grabbed by Valaijo. Then he looked into the frontcourt and threw the ball over vigorously. At this time, there was no time to give the Cleveland Cavaliers any chance to organize an offense.
Eight seconds pass by in a flash!
The moment Valaijo grabbed the rebound, Wu Dawei ran towards the frontcourt! He received this long pass. Although someone had already returned to the defense of the Miami Heat, Wu Dawei did not choose to attack the inside.
He rushed to the front of the three-point line and then jumped up again!
Dwayne Wade, who was shrinking in the inside, reacted like he woke up from a dream. He hurriedly rushed out, but it was too late! In this way, Wu Dawei had no obstacles in the air!
"Is this Chinese man's brain hot?" Miami fans stared at Wu Dawei who was jumping out of the three-point line in amazement. His figure bloomed in the air like a dangerous poppy!
Byron Scott was also on the sidelines and didn't dare to take a breath, because he thought Wu Dawei would choose to rush into the inside and get a two-pointer. After all, this is the safest way, but Wu Dawei finally chose to take action outside the three-pointer!
But before that, Wu Dawei had not scored a few three-pointers in a series!
Everyone in the Cavaliers was worried about Wu Dawei's choice this time. But at this time, Wu Dawei had already abandoned all distractions. He did not hesitate at all, but just didn't want to give Miami people any chance!
The basketball was in control of the palm of the hand. The next second, Wu Dawei moved his right hand lightly, and the ball flew away from his fingertips!
Suddenly, the orange ball flew out, flew over Wade's head, flew over all doubts and ridicule, and after a long journey like a century, he plunged into the net flower desperately!
"Swish!"
