First of all, the two teams belong to the Eastern Division. Lian Dao and James are destined to become mortal enemies on the court. Since they have become mortal enemies, neither of them wants to be the background board for the opponent's victory.
The second is that many media publicized this game as a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals. Although this title is meant to be hyped, it is not unreasonable.
If the goal of the Knicks this season is to win the championship, then the Heat will become the biggest obstacle for the Knicks to win the Eastern Conference.
…
The Knicks players set off in the morning and arrived at Miami International Airport at noon.
As soon as he got off the plane, Lian Dao could feel the smell of sea water in the air.
Immediately, a heat wave hit, which made Lian Dao take off his coat in a hurry.
It is now the end of December, and the temperature in New York is mostly around 0 degrees, but the temperature in Miami is 19 degrees Celsius. Since the history of the United States, Miami has only had one snowfall in winter.
Miami's coldest record was 6.6°C on January 19, 1977. On that day, Miami experienced its first snowfall since local weather records began in the 1830s.
It was also the only snow!
"Fuck, it's so comfortable here in winter, sunshine, beach, and sea breeze! It's perfect for a vacation!" Wilson Chandler sighed as soon as he got off the plane, and he also took off his coat by the way.
"Do you still want to say that there are hot and enthusiastic beauties, as well as countless nightclubs!" Millsap patted Chandler's shoulder jokingly, winking at Chandler
Immediately, the two looked at each other and laughed. Sure enough, two people with the same hobbies can always cherish each other.
Of course, David Lee, the little prince of New York nightclubs, is also indispensable among them, and he quickly integrated into this topic.
The climate in New York is actually very attractive, and it is around 0 degrees in winter, but compared to Miami, which is almost summer all year round, the climate in New York is indeed much inferior!
After boarding the team bus, Lian Dao and his teammates headed for the hotel where they stayed in the city.
During the driving, Lian Dao was also attracted by the street scene along the side of Miami, the golden sandy beach, the blue sea, and all kinds of exaggerated graffiti on the street.
This city seems to be filled with freedom, but this belongs to the rich; for the poor where blacks gather, the dark and dank ghettos are full of crime and xd.
What is the first impression of everyone in Miami, is it the sandy beaches on the South Coast, the endless bikinis, or the countless nightclub parties?
These are all possible, but only before this summer, sports were rarely mentioned in this city.
It's no secret that Miami sports fans have never been loyal team supporters. Before the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami won the championship in 2006, most of the stadium was often empty. Even now that the Heat are forming the Big Three, there will be an American Airlines Arena that is empty after halftime.
Don't believe it, the 82-game regular season is really not as enjoyable for Miami fans as it is for the luxurious nightclub fans.
The fans in this city are enthusiastic enough, but their enthusiasm is also very short-lived. They seldom have the patience to stay and watch the whole game. Compared with Chang Yuan's support, the fans in this city prefer to pursue short-term joy.
Many people say that in Miami, there are no fans, only spectators who buy tickets to watch the game.
It's also worth mentioning that in every arena, every stadium, and even every stadium in Miami, there is at least one nightclub.
Not a club style bar, but a real nightclub, and even then, **** the fans couldn't make it to the game on time.
Many fans don't know that there is also a Hyde Bar in the American Airlines Arena for everyone to have fun.
Who cares what the game is like when you have a lavish sports bar in your arena?
Leaving the arena, there are a lot of bars and nightclubs waiting for you to patronize. They will make you forget the game tickets that cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. This is Miami, and this is the culture here.
This is a luxurious, carnival city. And if that wasn't eye-catching enough, Miami has another 12 months of perfect weather, which sounds awesome right?
So good that you don't even need to go to any sports, not at all.
Many NBA stars will come to Miami during the off-season, and they spend the whole summer feeling the heat of Miami and the nightclub culture all over the city!
Of course, don't be surprised if Miami feels familiar to you, because anyone who played Vice City as a child will always find a little memory of their youth here.
That's right, many street scenes in "Sin City" are reproduced according to the city of Miami.
"It's really nice here!" Looking out the window, Lian Dao not only sighed with emotion.
"That's natural, otherwise LeBron would not have left the poor village of Ke and chose here, hahahaha!" Rasheed Wallace in front of Lian Dao laughed ironically.
Lian Dao smiled. The boy who said "I won't leave Cleveland" in the end chose the top team for the championship, but what James didn't know was that when he chose to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers, he was like It's opening a Pandora's box.
Because after that, when he felt that the team lost the potential to win the championship, he would naturally choose to give up this city.
This is the case now when you leave Cleveland and come to the Heat, and it is the same when you leave the Heat and return to Cleveland, and it is even more so when you leave Cleveland and join the Los Angeles Lakers!
There has never been a shortage of superstars around him, Wade, Bosh, and later Irving, Kevin Love, and later Anthony Davis...
There is only one time and more times to hold a group!
Without continuing to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Miami, the team bus soon arrived at the hotel where they were staying, and the players also quickly rested. Then in the afternoon, they will head to the American Airlines Center to prepare for tomorrow night's game.
Choosing to come to Miami one day earlier can also show how much the Knicks attach importance to this game. They don't want to lose, so the team will welcome this game in the best state!
…
LeBron James is very happy recently. They have just achieved 12 consecutive victories recently. Although they lost to the Dallas Mavericks after that, they defeated the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers in the away game and won two consecutive victories again.
Recently, the talk about their grouping has also been reduced a lot. As long as they can win, all problems will be hidden behind the scenes.
Especially the 96:80 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers in the Christmas game made James feel very comfortable. In the past, if he wanted to beat the Lakers, he would have to lose his life, but the composition of the Big Three, UU Read www.uukanshu.com Make this extra easy.
Sure enough, only by holding a group can we become stronger!
During the Heat training here, several chartered reporters entered the training venue to conduct exclusive interviews with James and Wade.
One of the reporters asked James a question.
"Your recent game state is very good. After the Heat won 12 consecutive victories, they did not enter a losing streak, but went on to achieve two consecutive victories.
But your opponent is also the Knicks who have just come out of a three-game losing streak. They also won two consecutive victories, and their record is still the first in the league.
For the second match against the Knicks tomorrow, do you think you can beat them like before? Will the Knicks end the Heat's winning streak? "
James has been in a good mood recently, and he didn't care when he heard the reporter's question.
"Recently we have run in very well. Our tacit understanding has continued to improve, and we have the strength to maintain this state. I don't think the Knicks will pose any threat to our winning streak. We will continue to maintain this state and strive for Three straight victories at home!"
James seems to have a calm tone, but everyone knows that he has already spoken his declaration of victory!
James is indeed full of confidence. First of all, the running-in of the Big Three has basically found a preliminary point of fit. Secondly, Stoudemire is still on the injured list, and with the experience of beating the Knicks last time, he doesn't feel that he is just relying on his integrity. Rice, will be the opponent of the Big Three!
After all, a lineup like the Cavaliers last year could score 2:2 with the Knicks in the regular season. The Knicks who lost Stoudemire now, for James, have nothing to do with the Knicks in the regular season last season. the difference.
And that's how the Heat won the previous game!
