Chapter 400 Decisive Battle on Tianwang Mountain(1/2)
The eastern and western division finals played four games respectively.
The Spurs and the Thunder each protected their home advantage and will usher in the battle of Tianwang Mountain in the fifth game.
The plot in the east is slightly different.
The Heat and the Raptors each achieved one win and one loss at home, and they both had a draw, but the process was even more ups and downs.
It was also the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, and the east is even more weird than the west.
No one knows how this series will end.
Game5.
Battle of Tianwang Mountain.
Although this is not a decisive game that loses the entire set, it is a game that determines who has the advantage in the subsequent games.
If you win the Tianwang Mountain, you will get the match point. The psychological tests on the winning side and the defeated side are extremely cruel.
Route Center Arena.
That night, Toronto was filled with smoke.
Where there is no war, competitive sports are war.
Toronto people spontaneously organized themselves. In order to support the team, countless people gathered on the streets and gathered to watch through the big screen in the square, live broadcasts of bars, or live broadcasts of restaurants.
They can't go to the scene to cheer the team, but they can fill Toronto with cheers with unifying cheers.
The atmosphere on the scene was even more lively. In order to create the atmosphere of the Devil's away game, Toronto fans gathered together, and their enthusiasm infected everyone on the scene.
The cheers of the home team when they appear and the roar of the visiting team when they arrive.
This is the standard for the devil's home court.
The grudge between the Raptors and the Heat is not a feud, but in just two years, the two teams have been involved.
Bosh, the Raptors' former core player, swam to the South Coast in the name of his friend and joined the Heat, which gave the two teams a reason to dislike each other.
The more direct reason is the playoffs last season.
The unprecedented peak three giants have brought together without any excuses for the Heat. They must reach the finals. Only by reaching the finals can those who laugh at them shut up. Only in this way can they hold their heads up and be proud of the heroes.
For such a team, not winning the championship is the biggest failure.
As a result, they fell in the division finals and fell in front of the Raptors who should have fallen.
The one who led this team was an extremely young player.
He is both young and talented, and has unparalleled strength.
Tonight, the Raptors have a beautiful Witch team on the sidelines, and Toronto stars of different ranks.
The commentary seat was also full of stars.
Angus, Barkley, Miller, Webber.
"I will miss Kenny, maybe he will regret his missed tonight's game for life."
Barkley said while crying for rats, laughing.
"This is undoubtedly a key game. Considering the previous four games, we have reason to believe that it will be a great battle."
Weber teased: "Maybe we will witness the legend tonight."
Miller snorted: "There are 365 days a year and 24 hours a day. I believe the Raptors can win every moment. I can't imagine that Ratch Lee lost to Joel Anthony."
"Don't say Joel Anthony, he's miserable enough."
The kings on the commentary table had no room for Angus to speak.
It was at this time that the main forces of both sides were warming up.
Li Xing held the ball and tried his hand on the outside.
"For Lachi, the biggest regret is that there are not enough inside players in this era."
Angus said: "Centres have had a great heritage, from George McCann, Johnston, Russell, Chamberlain, Jabbar, Moses Malone, all the way to Robinson, Olajuwon, O'Neal, and now only Dwight Howard."
Weber said: "This is related to the change of rules. As the three-pointers increase, the proportion of center scores gradually decreases. The three-pointers may be the asteroid that caused the center to die out. Coupled with the rules of big and small, the center we are familiar with is dying."
"Everyone, the increase in three-pointers and the decline of the center are not synchronized. The decline of the center actually suddenly began in the early 1990s. Yes, it was the era we were in!"
Miller's words escalated the symposium.
Several representatives started a heated discussion on "Why are there fewer and fewer good centers?"
At this time, the teams on both sides of the venue had completed the warm-up.
The coach is assigning tasks and the competition is about to begin.
The most ridiculous thing tonight is not that the Heat are still not afraid of death to put Joel Anthony in the starting center position, but that James and Lee Xing jumped.
When Li Xing saw James standing in the middle circle, he thought there was something wrong with the Heat's communication.
Until they affirmed James' approach and were really expecting James to beat Li Xing, Li felt despised.
The little emperor's physical fitness is indeed not mentioned, but no matter how fast he bounces, no matter how good he bounces, he is still a cloud compared to Li Xing.
With Li Xing's physical fitness not inferior, his height and wingspan are completely monster-level, and James has no chance at all.
When the referee threw the ball into the air, Li Xing immediately proved this.
"Bang!"
When Li Xing transferred the ball to Stephenson, the commentator's seat mentioned again because James took the jump ball: "The center has really withered. How dare Miami let LeBron and Ratch jump ball? Isn't this asking for death?"
After halftime, Li Xing ran, his opponent, Joel Anthony, who was imagined by the Heat as a seven-foot center, stood up again.
In the past four games, Anthony averaged 5 points, 6 rebounds and 6 fouls per game.
Yes, he will be beaten by Li Xing until he has left the court with six fouls every game.
Rather than saying that the Heat made him fight to the death with Li Xing, it is better to say that the cannon fodder led by him is fighting to the death with Li Xing.
Li Xing is determined and he doesn't want the Heat to have any illusion of "we can win".
In the first round, Li Xing helped Banyani and DeRozan to intersperse the Swift Dragon. Then, he used as the entry point to enter the paint area.
Stephenson paid attention to his location and waited until Li Xing arrived at the most comfortable place and went in.
Li Xing raised his long arms to grab the ball, leaned against Anthony, took a step back and opened the distance, and scored a jump shot.
Li Xing scored as easy as picking up the fruit on a plate.
Anthony raised his hand silently, and he regarded it as his mistake, but no one would blame him.
Yes, that's the price the Heat is ready to pay.
Even though the inside line was blown up like this, they still won two of the past four games.
The reason is very simple, James and Wade are also unsolvable for the Raptors.
If Wade was in his form last year, the Raptors' outside defense could be hit to collapse.
Even Wade, who is 70% in a state of severity, no one can defend against it.
This is reality.
It was cruelly placed in front of everyone, giving people a sense of powerless despair.
James used his broad back to hold Barnes back, and then he exerted force reasonably and slowly pushed the person in.
Last season, he was ridiculed for "not even Calderon can handle it". Now, back-attack has become an important part of his arsenal.
Li Xing was attracted by James' back beaten. Bathir took advantage of the distraction of Banyani's defense and sneaked off the bottom line and cut in.
At this moment, Banyani's defense was awkward, and James seemed to have a look behind his back, passing the ball without looking at someone.
Bathir was about to attack, but he still didn't know that he had been targeted by a beast.
Li Xing on one side seemed to be a demon covering everything, flipped the demon's wings, pressed his hands down, covering Bathir's shot.
Anthony took it and wanted to attack. Li Xing stood there and raised his long arms without reason.
This height and this kind of defense area have exceeded the scope that ordinary people can understand.
Anthony was stunned.
One second,
Two seconds,
"Beep!"
Three seconds violation!
"Rach's defense is like a spider web. As long as you enter his defense range, you can't break it. It's so terrible!"
"It's so lucky to see a center forward like Rachi in this era!"
"I hope he can lead a large number of children. Maybe it won't take long to see many excellent centers who have adapted to the new rules appear!"
"It will definitely happen. With a benchmark, there will be more and more successors in the future."
