Chapter 374 James and His Baseline Ball (Fourth More!)

Spoelstra walked to the sideline, yelled at James, and then held out his hand for him to slow down.

With a 13-point lead, the Heat are in no hurry.

The Heat played positional battles in the frontcourt, and James made a breakthrough with the ball.

The Spurs shrunk their defense, and Leonard almost hung his whole body on James.

James suddenly points to Chalmers.

With Chalmers' three-point shot, Tang Tian assisted in the defense and directly interfered.

"boom!"

Chalmers missed a three-pointer and Duncan protected the defensive rebound.

After the Spurs came up in the second half, they played absolute defensive strength.

After Parker got the ball, he didn't rush to make a fast break, and went to the frontcourt to play positions under the rhythm.

The Heat's defensive intensity is still very high, but it can be clearly felt that the Spurs are not as anxious as in the first half.

Tang Tian's movement restrained most of the Heat's defensive attention. At this time, Leonard suddenly cut from the bottom corner to the basket.

After Parker's pass, Leonard received the ball and scored a layup against Bosh, which also caused Bosh's thug foul!

2+1!

The scene burst into cheers.

Because of Tang Tian's dazzling light, Leonard's performance was completely covered up.

But in fact, this No. 15 pick who entered the league with Tang Tian has grown into a good figure!

Not only is the defense excellent, but the offensive shooting stability is also getting higher and higher.

And the key is that calm temperament, which is somewhat similar to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian bumped into Leonard's chest, then clapped his hands vigorously and shouted.

He is mobilizing his teammates in this way.

Leonard's extra penalty hit, the Spurs came back in the second half and played a wave of 5-0, reducing the point difference to 10 points.

The Heat went to the frontcourt and continued to play positions. This time James scored with a shot to help the Heat continue to score.

But looking back, the Spurs' positional battle was completed again. This time it was Duncan, who turned around and scored after receiving the ball from the basket.

Spoelstra's weakness was exposed at this time.

When the situation was stalemate, he could fight back and forth with Popovich tactically, but after leading, there was a selection bias.

Because the Heat took the lead, he gave up the defensive counterattack that the Heat are good at in order to seek stability, and instead fought against the Spurs.

There is a clear difference in efficiency between the two sides.

Moreover, Tang Tian used body language to encourage the team on both offensive and defensive ends. The Spurs team was excited, and they fought patiently and efficiently.

The Spurs eroded the Heat's lead little by little, and Spoelstra's consecutive replacements of Ray Allen and Haslem couldn't stop it.

After three quarters, the two teams tied at 65!

The Spurs played 30 to 15 in a single quarter, and evened out the 15-point difference!

Starting from defense and hitting success rate, the Spurs have successfully done it!

Although Popovich didn't know what happened in the locker room, he could feel what Tang Tian was doing from the sidelines.

I don't know when it started, Tang Tian has become the spiritual leader of the Spurs on the field.

By the way, maybe it was that time last year, on the night of Father's Day, when Tang Tian sent out 5 high-fives and 5 shouts, that mini five-double night.

"Shaq, the game is not over yet!"

By the time the Spurs tied, Barkley had come to life completely, and now he began to challenge O'Neal again.

O'Neill also laughed. Although he didn't want to lose the bet, as a melon eater, it's not bad to reach the tiebreaker in the finals.

Of course, there is another point, as Barkley said, the game is not over yet.

There is still a game, and the outcome is still unknown.

The two sides entered the final contest.

After an intermission, Spoelstra finally reacted and began to speed up the game again.

But the Spurs have recovered, and the Heat failed to open the score after several attempts.

Gritting their teeth, the Spurs tied with the Heat 30 seconds before the end of the game!

The fans at the scene felt like their hearts would jump out. This is really a countdown game!

For the Heat's frontcourt ball, James signaled everyone to pull away, and then went straight to Leonard.

Leonard defended well.

After James broke into the basket, he missed a layup!

But he jumped up for the second time and grabbed the offensive rebound to make a shot, which caused Leonard's thugs!

Two chances for additional penalties!

Peak James!

The fans at the scene were restless.

The Heat fans on the hotline had another collective climax.

"Who will blackmail my emperor's last attack choice?"

"Free throw lore, won the first championship of my career! The script has been written!"

"Aren't you afraid of missing two free throws?"

"Are you kidding me? This season, my free throw percentage has broken 80% for the first time! Just watch, I must have made two free throws!"

"Come on, I can't wait!"

...

James walked to the free throw line and caught his breath.

In the away game, what greeted him was no longer the tidy MVP shouts, but the boos all over the sky.

First free throw.

The arc is very positive, and it can be felt that his free throw touch is obviously better than last season.

"boom!"

But the angle is slightly off.

The first penalty is missed!

"..." Hotline fans.

Second penalty.

Adjust your breathing before shooting.

"boom!"

Still out!

At the critical moment, he still missed two free throws!

In the backboard competition at the basket, Bosh had long hands at this time. After poking the ball into the sky, he jumped up again and sent the racket out!

Seeing that the ball was about to go out of bounds, James sprinted from the baseline, and then snatched the ball back!

Wade jumped in the air to catch the ball, and then with 5 seconds left in the game, he directly shot a difficult fadeaway jumper against Duncan who was helping the defense.

The ball...goes in!

The Heat took a key 2-point lead!

Popovich reached out and called a timeout.

However, he didn't go to get the tactical board as usual at the first time, but rushed to the referee and shouted, pointing to the bottom line with his hands.

It turned out that it was the ball just now. Popovich thought that James had gone out of bounds when he saved the ball!

In the last two minutes, the head coach has the right to request video playback.

The game entered a technical timeout.

The referee went to the technical platform to watch the replay of the video.

The playback is projected onto a large LED screen at the scene.

After only using it once, there was an uproar at the scene.

James was clearly saving the ball from the sidelines, even after a couple of trots on the sidelines.

This is an obvious misjudgment!

When the slow playback started on the LED screen, there were boos all over the scene.

If it weren't for this misjudgment, the Heat would not be leading now!

Several referees at the technical desk were communicating.

After the exchange, explain to the referees of the two teams respectively.

After listening to the explanation, Popovich turned around and left, and he could see that he was quite upset.

The referee then signaled a timeout for the Spurs.

The misjudgment has been confirmed, but according to NBA rules, in order to maintain the image of the referee, the penalty will not be changed once it takes effect.

So Wade's goal just now is still valid, the Spurs called a timeout, and they still have the last 5 seconds left.
