Several other groups of duels also had winners and losers.

Carmelo Anthony, who just lost to LeBron James in the "Rookie of the Year" award, led his team to the playoffs in his rookie season.

In the regular season, he averaged 36.5 minutes per game, ranking first on the team, and averaged 17.9 shots per game, also ranking first on the team. He averaged 21 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game, leading the Nuggets to a 43-39 win.

Negative record.

It can be said that he has done everything a 19-year-old player can do, and he is very mature!

But this was only him during the regular season. The first time he entered the playoffs, he was actually beaten badly.

Originally, as the eighth team in the Western Conference, the Nuggets' opponent was the Timberwolves, the first in the Western Conference. At that time, Garnett was the league's final MVP. In the end, the Timberwolves easily eliminated the Nuggets 4-1 in a 5-game series.

Afterwards, rookie Anthony was targeted miserably. He averaged 16 shots per game, but could only get 15 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists, and his shooting percentage also dropped to 32.8%.

This time we faced a more powerful "OK" combination.

His performance was even worse.

He averaged 17 shots per game, but only scored 14.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists, and his shooting percentage dropped to 31.8%!

Much worse than before!

However, this is a process that every rookie must go through.

Don’t talk about others, let’s talk about Wade.

Even though he defeated the "bearded" Baron Davis in this series, Davis averaged 22.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game, which can be said to have the upper hand in the matchup.

Even Wade himself admitted this. In a later interview, he once mentioned that he cried when Davis beat him.

He doesn't understand that there are such powerful defenders in the league!

The No. 1 player can actually play like this!

The only difference is that Wade's teammates are stronger than his opponents, while Anthony's opponents are not as strong as his opponents.

However... Wade's performance, although not as good as Baron Davis, still averaged around 16 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game.

so……

His performance in his first playoff trip was better than the rest of the 2003 generation.

In addition, the Mavericks really defeated the Kings and entered the next round of the playoffs.

Mark Cuban walks like a wind, and everyone seems to say, look, look at the strategic vision of my general manager!

He's ready to do something big in the summer.

In addition, the Spurs and Timberwolves also advanced successfully.

As for Dayao and his Rockets, they were eliminated in the first round.

But they did enough to push their opponents to Game 7 of the series.

It can be seen from the entire series process how much the arrival of Kenyon Martin has improved Dayao!

Yao Ming no longer has to worry about his teammates' defense, because Kenyon Martin will complete the assist defense for him, and Martin can even help him quickly complete the double-team.

As for Martin himself, although he did not get the offensive tactical core as he needed, there is one thing he is sure of, this team seems to have the ability to challenge the Wizards.

Because Dayao’s attack ability is also very strong!

Ever since he played with Li Wan in the Eastern Conference, he has been eager to cooperate with such a player who has the ability to attack the basket.

It’s just that there are too few people in this league with this kind of ability. There is Jiang Dalin and Shaq, and Tim Duncan also has them, but they overlap with him in the same position.

besides……

It’s Yao Ming!

He was already thinking about which finger he should use to wear the championship.

Since then, all eight teams from the East and West that have entered the next round have their answers.

The Wizards entered the next round earlier, which gave them more time to get to know their opponents.

The Heat in the 2003-04 season!

Before Wade arrived, the team's leader was Eddie Jones, an outstanding shooting guard. He was the 10th overall pick in 1994. He served as the starting shooting guard for the Lakers early in his career. In his peak season, he averaged

He scored 20.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.7 steals. Not only was he selected to the All-Star team three times, he also won the honor of the steal leader.

Eddie Jones played a total of 4 and a half seasons with the Lakers, and Kobe served as his substitute for 2 years.

He moved to the Heat in 2001 and became the team's scoring leader for four consecutive years. He is indeed worthy of the title of team boss. In the 2003-04 season, the 33-year-old Eddie Jones averaged 17.3 points per game.

Impressive statistics of points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists.

I don’t know if this guy is lucky enough to be a player like me...

The only No. 2 player to win the Finals MVP in the first ten years of 2000 has something to do with him.

Even these two were once the second and third level shooting guards in the history of the league!

This year's Heat actually didn't have an easy time. They started with ten consecutive losses and launched an impact towards the playoffs.

This has to mention the magical Eastern Division again.

Some people find out in vain, hey, can I make the playoffs?

Some people find out in vain, hey, can I get the No. 1 pick?

It can be seen from the composition of the entire lineup that the Heat mainly rely on the outside.

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Dalin also discovered a familiar name in this team: Wang Zhizhi!

He transferred back to the Heat later this season and eventually managed to stay with the team.

Looking at the others, Odom, Alston, and Caron Butler are all players who will gain a firm foothold in this league in the future. It cannot be considered an accident that such a lineup reached the second round of the playoffs.

.

Just because the Heat were still competing for the No. 1 pick last season, everyone's first impression of this team was bad!

It is also for this reason that Pat Riley's status has risen again.

However, when they met the Wizards in the semifinals, many media believed that the Heat's season would stop at this moment.

Of course, it has been a success for the Heat!

Game day has finally arrived.

When Jiang Dalin saw Wade, whose cheeks were not so swollen, he smiled and went to take care of him.

Wade is not that arrogant now. He nods obediently when facing the league's third-year seniors.

Soon the competition will officially begin!

At the beginning of the first quarter, Wade showed off his long-range shooting ability. This guy whose three-point shooting percentage was only about 28.5% actually made a three-pointer.

3-0!

It can be seen tonight that Wade's idea is very simple, first use outside firepower to force the opponent to defend.

Then use your special skills to break through!

Moreover, from the beginning, the opponent mainly guarded against his breakthrough, but they did not guard his three-pointers so closely.

This also gave him room to take action.

It has to be said that after the experience of the first round of the playoffs, this guy has fully grown.

Not to be outdone, Arenas also scored three points.

But the Heat really started shooting today. Following a fancy dribble by the "Street Ball King", he scored a three-point shot!

Jiang Dalin was dumbfounded by these consecutive three-pointers.

Unbeknownst to him, he thought he had traveled through time again, 14 years later!

Otherwise, why would you shoot a three-pointer as a two-pointer?

The Wizards did not compete with them on the outside, but used their own weapon that they are better at - Jiang Dalin!

The Heat have many good players, but they are basically all forward players.

Their internal strength is really weak!

No, Jiang Dalin easily completed a dunk and scored.

This time when the Wizards were on defense, their entire formation pounced.

On the Heat's side, Jones is hitting shots.

Jones was originally a very good breakthrough player, but as he gets older, he prefers to play outside.

This was also an important reason why the team gave up on him later.

Pat Riley doesn't like this soft guy, he thinks it will affect the team's morale.

The ball still went to Jiang Dalin. Grant finally mustered up the courage to defend, but was knocked away by him and made another powerful dunk. The entire scene burst into loud cheers!

Compared with three-pointers, Jiang Dalin's powerful dunk is more impressive!

The game begins!

Unknowingly, the Wizards had already taken the lead.

The Heat did not dare to try a three-pointer, but the efficiency of the breakthrough was not very good. In the next two minutes, the Heat fell into a scoring drought, and no one scored for a while.

There was no other way, Stan Van Gundy could only call a timeout.

After returning from the timeout, the Heat saw the entire style of play become much clearer and began to look for Wade's point to play.

When Arenas was singled out in the backcourt, Wade showed his advantages as a 21-year-old rookie. He played more games and was more experienced than ordinary rookies. He scored with a layup after a breakthrough.

The Heat finally got out of their scoreless woes.

But Jiang Dalin shook his head when he saw Wade's layup.

After all, this is still version 1.0 of Wade.

It would have been weird if he hadn't dunked the ball when he was at his peak!

In his prime, Wade really rushed to the basket and dunked.

The setting in 2k08 is basically to rush up and then press dunk, and each one can complete the dunk!

Wade is so fierce at his peak, and he looks like a good candidate for a second-tier boss!

The Heat began to counterattack during the substitute rotation. In this game, Scott did not want to take advantage too early, but made normal substitutions to ensure that Jiang Dalin's physical fitness was the main priority.

As soon as Jiang Dalin came off the field, the Heat started a 7-2 run.

At the end of the first quarter, the Heat led by 3 points.

However, Scott did not panic at all. Jiang Dalin only played for more than 7 minutes in the first quarter and rested for nearly 4 minutes. This was done to allow Jiang Dalin to rest less later.

A new team like the Heat is really motivated.

If you can't stop it all at once and get into a tug-of-war with them, it will make them more confident.

Then it explodes with even more powerful impact!

So Scott's idea is simple...

A land of waves!

The second quarter had a similar rhythm, but Jiang Dalin played 2 more minutes on the court. When he stood on the court, the Wizards' entire mental outlook was indeed different.

First, Arenas scored a three-pointer, Hamilton added another three-pointer from the outside, and then Jiang Dalin dunked and scored. Wade was unable to hold on alone, and the Wizards easily widened the score gap.

The Wizards led the Heat by 13 points after the first half.

And wait for the second half of the game to start.

The Wizards further expanded their lead with a 13-5 scoring surge.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Heat were still very energetic.

Even the defender was working hard to protect the rebound and did not give up any possible opportunity.

But the result...

Billups scored a three-point shot, and then Arenas scored another three-pointer to expand the Wizards' advantage.

By 8 minutes and 15 seconds of the third quarter, the Wizards' lead was already about 20 points.

At this time, Wade already regretted throwing a three-pointer in the opening game.

Because his three-point shot seemed to have aroused the three-point addiction in these guys.

So far, the Wizards have made 12 three-pointers.

This is the era of traditional centers. With such three-point efficiency, Stan Van Gundy directly transformed into the "Roaring Emperor" and sprayed randomly on the court.

But the Heat are starting to show their tough side.

Especially Wade, he suddenly broke out in such a predicament and made a series of breakthroughs. He was torn apart by the Wizards' perimeter.

Under his leadership, the Heat really launched a wave of counterattacks.

During this period, the Heat's 7-2 scoring advantage brought the point difference between the two teams back to within 15 points.

Scott wasn't surprised at all.

This is why he rested Jiang Dalin for so long before.

Because now...

He will never let go of Jiang Dalin again!

Soon Van Gundy also discovered this.

Watching Jiang Dalin dunk one after another over the heads of his own players.

He can only say one thing, old man Scott has no moral ethics!

At the end of the third quarter, the Wizards' lead returned to 20 points.

At the end of the game, the Wizards defeated the Heat 120 to 100.

When the buzzer sounded, symbolizing the end of the game, it was obvious that Wade's eyes were dazed for a moment. At that moment, he was a little confused looking at the difference in the score.

If Davis beat him to tears in the first round, then facing the Wizards now, Jiang Dalin really knocked him unconscious.

Is this the Wizards team that ranks first in the Eastern Conference and has won two consecutive championships?

It’s really awesome!

Only then did Wade realize that his adaptation to the playoffs was not over.

This is the real strength. In the game with them, Wade felt the gap.

Not only him, but others on the Heat team also felt the gap.

How should I put it? After the first game, several Heat players no longer wanted to play in the following games.

Jiang Dalin scored 40 points. This was the first time he scored like this in the first game of a series.

There's nothing you can do about it, the Heat's top insider only has "208"!

Judging from Jiang Dalin's observation, this "208" is somewhat watery!

In addition, he also got 20 rebounds. From here you can see how unscrupulous he is in the Heat's interior!

As a result, he accidentally completed a data that can only be produced by "ancient behemoths" - 40 plus 20!

In the history of the NBA, only 20 people can score this statistic in a single game...

If it's points and rebounds, it's even less.
