The point difference narrowed to 3 points, but this was still within the control of the Heat, and they didn't panic at all.
Before the game, the Big Three of the Heat knew that the Knicks were not so easy to deal with.
The Heat continued to attack, and Lian Dao still defended James closely.
On the Heat's side, Bosh came to the high position and gave James an off-ball screen. After James got rid of Lian Dao, he quickly cut inside.
At this time, Wade quickly passed the ball to the inside.
When the ball arrived, James received a pass from Wade in the air, and he was about to complete a dunk with both hands.
James felt like it was a must-go play, but just as he was flying toward the hoop, Danny Green rose from the wing and slapped his big hand on the basketball in James' hands.
"Why is this guy here?" James' eyes widened, and he couldn't believe that he would be taken away by a second-round pick.
The two collided in the air, Danny Green was knocked to the floor by the impact brought by James, and James' dunk was also destroyed by Danny Green, the basketball hit the rim and bounced high.
The referee didn't blow the whistle, it was a clean cap.
The basketball was accepted by Stoudemire and quickly passed to Lian Dao.
The two leading stars of the Heat each suffered a loss from Danny Green.
This time, the Heat retreated quickly.
As a team that often plays defensive counterattacks, it is easy for them to retreat quickly. Before that, they were completely attracted by Danny Green and Wade because of the floor grabbing the ball.
Teams that can regard defensive counterattack as a regular tactic, defense is their housekeeping skill, and their defensive strength is absolutely top-notch, otherwise without defense, counterattack is a joke.
It's just that the weakness of the Heat inside makes many people subconsciously ignore the Heat's defense.
Lian Dao was entangled by Wade just after halftime, and at this time most of the Heat's players had already retreated. Lian Dao saw that the opportunity for a fast break had disappeared, so he did not force an attack.
Lian Dao dribbled the ball on the outside to observe his position on the court, but James stared at Lian Dao firmly, keeping the best defensive distance at all times.
This distance can not only ensure that when Lian Dao shoots, he will be blocked immediately; it can also ensure that when Lian Dao breaks through, he will keep up with Lian Dao's footsteps at the first time.
The rest of the Heat are ready to help defend as soon as Lian Dao breaks through.
Seeing that the Heat continued their defensive tactics in the first quarter, Lian Dao resorted to tactics. Stoudemire mentioned a high screen, and Lian Dao went inside again.
James quickly returned to Lian Dao around the pick-and-roll.
When Bosh was pulled to the outside by Stoudemire, James knew that only relying on Joel Anthony inside could not stop Lian Dao at all.
At the same time, Lian Dao clearly saw from the corner of his eye that Wade had already started to lean towards him at this time. Sure enough, the Heat still adopted the shrinking defensive line in the first quarter!
In the first quarter of the game, the defensive strategy adopted by the Heat was very successful. Although Lian Dao would break through and score the ball, Tony Allen's shooting percentage was worth the Heat's gamble.
Moreover, the Heat made the right bet in the first quarter, so even if the Knicks were replaced by Danny Green in the second quarter, the Heat still wanted to gamble again.
However, this time I am afraid that the Heat will be disappointed. Danny Green is one of the representatives of the league's classic 3D players in history.
After Lian Dao broke through to the basket, he jumped up, and then saw James, Wade and Joel Anthony jumped up after him.
But this time Lian Dao didn't force it, but threw the ball from the air to the back of his head.
"It was a no-look pass to Danny Green on the perimeter!"
Kenny Smith kept a close eye on the dynamics on the field. This attack may determine the direction of the next game.
At this time, Danny Green received a pass from Lian Dao outside the three-point line.
Due to Wade and James double-teaming Lian Dao, there was no one around Danny Green at this time, and there was absolutely a big vacancy.
"Danny Green has an opportunity, can you seize it?"
Kenny Smith clenched his palms, nervous and looking forward to it. In fact, this was also the mentality of all the audience on the field.
But Lian Dao knows that Danny Green is also a player with a big heart, and with his shooting skills, coupled with Lian Dao's "passing master" badge's hit rate bonus, this open shot is no different from sending points.
Here James didn't realize where the basketball was going, and Danny Green had already completed the shot without making any adjustments after receiving the ball.
Wade also found out at this time that the guy he had missed had already made a shot, and now he could only pray that Danny Green was an embroidered pillow that couldn't withstand the pressure.
Murphy's law states that the more people don't want something to happen, the more likely it will happen to him. This time, Wade didn't want to see this rookie hit a three-pointer, but this rookie hit this crucial shot.
The basketball hit the net, and the Knicks evened the trailing score with two three-pointers!
At the same time, the Heat's double-teaming tactic also failed at this moment!
"A very wonderful pass. Sickle deserves to be called the man who passes the ball most like a magician."
"Of course, Danny Green was relentless at critical moments. From receiving the ball to shooting, he didn't hesitate or adjust. This kid will definitely become a character in the future. His psychological quality is great!"
Barkley couldn't help standing up at this time, cheering loudly.
Knicks fans now remember and love No. 14 who is not soft at this critical moment.
During the regular season, Danny Green also started and played a few good games.
But today he ushered in his highlight moment again.
Who said second-round picks don't deserve the spotlight? !
After this attack, Wade finally began to pay attention to Danny Green. The character who can steal himself and block James is definitely not that simple.
As Wade, who has rich experience in the playoffs, he knows that if he doesn't pay attention to it, the Heat will definitely suffer in the end.
Wade did not find a good opportunity in the two tentative attacks here, so he transferred the ball to Bosh for singles inside.
For Bosh, the Knicks also attach great importance to the performance of the Heat in the semifinals, Bosh's performance is not inferior to Wade.
But the Heat also have an unbreakable bureau, that is, their fifth position Joel Anthony has almost no offensive ability.
For the Knicks, the inside line can easily double-team Bosh.
With the addition of Stoudemire in the fourth position, the defense is not tens of thousands of stabs.
Although Stoudemire's defense at the fourth position is not excellent, it is definitely qualified.
So Lian Dao wasn't too nervous when he saw Bosh playing against Stoudemire in the low post.
As long as the basketball is not in the hands of James and Wade, the Knicks' defense is successful.
In the Heat's past games, Lian Dao found that as long as James and Wade could be restrained to a certain extent in some Heat games, even if Bosh scored high, the Heat would lose the game.
In the end, under the double-teaming of Stoudemire and Cousins, Bosh turned over and hit the iron with a jumper.
Cousins jumped up to get ahead of Joel Anthony and received the rebound. Joel Anthony was really useless on the court except for defense.
The Heat's internal disadvantages are gradually revealed.
Since the second quarter, the Heat have not scored an offense yet!
"If the Knicks counterattack and score this time, then they will achieve their first score lead in this game."
Barkley and the audience are looking forward to the moment when the Knicks overtake the score!
The rhythm of the game on the scene gradually tilted towards the Knicks.
The Heat obviously didn't dare to shrink the line of defense unscrupulously like before ~www.mtlnovel.com~. They didn't dare to bet on whether Danny Green had the strength to hit the second three-pointer.
Lian Dao accelerated his breakthrough from outside the three-point line, James quickly retreated and blocked Lian Dao's breakthrough route, James did not lose his position at all, but Lian Dao's intention was not to pass James.
Stopped suddenly, took off, James followed Lian Dao to take off, and immediately rushed up, but Lian Dao stabilized his figure in the air and leaned back.
James straightened his arms, waiting for Lian Dao to block the shot, but when James felt that his body was about to fall, Lian Dao still hadn't made a shot.
Finally, when James fell, Lian Dao made a move.
But James also lost his best shot-blocking opportunity.
James stared at Lian Dao in disbelief.
"How... how is this possible, how can this guy's ability to stay in the air... be so strong?"
