Ten Chapters Are Here~ and There Will Be a Few More Chapters Tomorrow~!
"I said I was just saying it smoothly and accidentally. Coach, do you believe me?"
"I believe."
"But why do I think you don't believe it? You must think I am deliberately irritating the Heat!"
"So you said that to irritate the Heat? I really didn't hear it."
"..."
Seeing Coach Hollins breaking the jar, Sun Ce felt so innocent.
The atmosphere in Game 5 of the finals was so tense, and it was said to be a key battle to determine the championship.
If the Heat win, the Heat will play two home games in a row, which is indeed detrimental to their Grizzlies. Coupled with public opinion, their Grizzlies have been intensively prepared and focused in the past two days, and they all want to win the Finals in the fifth game. .
If you win, you will be the championship directly!
Under this situation, but with a camera pointed at him and someone like Sun Ce, who was still live on the line, Sun Ce couldn't help it when a reporter asked such a question!
With a mouthful of mouth, this has quickly become the focus of heated discussion among netizens once again.
Seeing that the coach and teammates are getting used to it, the teammates are more focused on warming up, and the coaching staff is also taking the time to discuss how to respond in case of any situation, taking into account as many possibilities as possible... Sun Ce feels that he has been hit hard. .
"What do these guys think of me? No matter what, let's play well, follow the plan, and play well..."
Sun Ce really felt that this game was very crucial. He finally managed to grab the home court advantage in the first game and saw that he had maintained a 3-1 lead. He couldn't let it slip at the last moment!
The rest of the Grizzlies are really used to it. Rather than being upset about not holding Sun Ce down, they might as well prepare for the game.
…
At 6:40 pm, players from both teams entered the stadium.
Many active players came to watch the game. Curry, Harden and Thabeet from the Warriors came. Iguodala and Horford from the Hawks came. Free agent Anthony came to watch the game. Jeremy Lin from the Cavaliers came. Gasol of the 76ers is here.
The only player who lost directly to the Grizzlies or Heat this year was Jeremy Lin who came to watch the game.
Retired players such as Yao Ming, Anfernee Hardaway, and Jason Williams also came to watch the game.
It was obvious that the atmosphere was more lively tonight. In addition to these players, the number of celebrities who came to watch the game was also higher than in the previous two games.
It is very likely that tonight is the last finals, and those who can get tickets will show their faces, and those who cannot afford tickets will show their faces.
This game is very important to the players of both teams, and they are preparing with the belief that they must win the game.
On the one hand, winning can win the championship at home, and on the other hand, only winning can avoid becoming the overall runner-up again.
Bill Russell was sitting on the sidelines. The Heat didn't want to see Bill Russell walk into the court today.
The atmosphere before the game was very tense. In the fanatical atmosphere of the fans at the scene, the players of the two teams said hello to the Lord of the Rings and other players before returning to their respective benches to concentrate on making final preparations.
The preparation time before the game passed quickly, and at 6:58, the game was about to begin. The TV commentators had almost finished their predictions and analysis of tonight's game, and began to introduce the starters of the two teams.
For the Grizzlies, the fixed starting lineup for the third game continued, with the combination of Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Randolph, and Larry Sanders taking the field.
For the Heat, the starting lineup of Chalmers, Wade, James, Bosh, and Nene appeared.
Sun Ce came to the free throw line, and James concentrated on guarding Sun Ce to avoid losing the jump ball and Sun Ce's fast break.
Sun Ce is not surprised by James' enthusiasm. The Grizzlies only won by 8 points in the last game. Most of the main players still played until the last moment. With James and Nene resting, Wei Wei, who came on in the last quarter, was not surprised. The combination of Germany and Bosh would be a pain in the ass, and the team led by these two is also a second-round team in the Eastern Conference.
It can be said that after the Heat lost in the third game,
They concentrated on preparing for the fifth game, consuming Paul George and Gasol and others while gaining rest time for James and Nene.
The last minute before the start of the game seemed to be extremely long. Sun Ce seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat. In the finals, it would be false to say that he was not afraid of losing, and it was even more impossible to say that he was not worried about the home court advantage being taken away by the opponent.
Finally, at 7 o'clock, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air, and the game began!
After losing twice to Larry Sanders, Nene finally won one this time and took the lead in moving the ball backwards.
The Heat attacked first, and Chalmers received the ball and advanced quickly.
The Grizzlies were prepared to win the jump ball or lose the jump ball, and quickly retreated. Sun Ce followed Chalmers, ready to flank James at any time.
At the beginning of the game, James was very confused, because this is the stage when he has the best control of his body. The Grizzlies wanted to contain James' distribution from the beginning.
At the same time, we have to try our best to guard James.
Chalmers passed the ball to James and then stretched it to the baseline. This is the only place Chalmers can think of where it is easiest to connect with James.
Nene continued to come out to pick and roll for James, blocking on the left side of Jimmy Butler. Just when Jimmy Butler was about to switch defenses with Larry Sanders, he suddenly saw that James did not use the pick and roll! James pretended to use the pick-and-roll and broke through from the left!
Jimmy Butler quickly moved to the right, but he was a beat too late. James rushed to the left side of the three-second zone without Jimmy Butler sticking to him.
Randolph moved quickly and blocked the left side of the three-second zone. James took a step across and jumped up, and shot a shot while being separated... Jimmy Butler tried his best to interfere, but he hit James' arm.
With the sound of the whistle, the ball fell into the basket, James scored a goal, and got a free throw. Jimmy Butler fouled!
Unlike the previous few encounters, when he always tried to let his teammates open the situation first, this time James came up and did it, and took advantage of Jimmy Butler's defensive inertia thinking, forced to break into the basket and scored, causing Jimmy Butler to foul.
Fortunately, the free throw was missed. Jimmy Butler just found that he did not interfere but his hand was stretched out and could not be retracted, so he went to shoot James's hand, but he couldn't!
Sun Ce received the defensive rebound, and without slowing down, he advanced to the front court briskly, and his teammates quickly took their positions.
James started the game directly with a hard attack, so fierce that the Grizzlies were not surprised by this situation, but felt that this was normal.
However, in this case, they had to be more cautious and not be overwhelmed by James.
