Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Hoo~ho~ho~"

Although the camera was not turned on, fans could still feel James' heavy breathing.

On the Heat bench, James, who played for 12 minutes, was like a full bellows, and his fatigue could be felt through the screen.

Indeed, there was no way not to get tired. Not to mention playing the full 12 minutes in the first quarter, each of the 19 points was earned with all my heart. Almost every goal was scored with 2-3 defensive players, such defensive pressure.

Even if he scored 19 points, I have to say that it was really tough.

Even Barkley, who had ridiculed him for two or three months, said: "LeBron James deserves praise tonight. He really played his best."

Spoelstra also patted James' shoulder heavily, "As expected of you...little emperor!"

However, this variety of compliments did not make James feel happy, because...

James looked up at the big screen. The score was clearly 32-27. After struggling for a whole quarter, the team was still 5 points behind. The most important thing is...

James looked at the bottom of the screen again. Zuo Li's personal data was also displayed there. Compared with his 19 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist in a single quarter, Zuo Li was not inferior, or even better.

No matter from a team perspective or a personal perspective, James was still suppressed by Zuo Li in this quarter. How could he be happy?

"Don't worry about LeBron, there are still three quarters in the game, just play next." As a good friend, Wade can certainly see what James is thinking.

It has to be said that whether he plays 9 points or not in the future, Wade really has nothing to say about James. Some people think that Wade took on the role of Pippen, but in fact, in the first year of James coming to the Heat,

It was Pippen's role, and it was Wade who helped James get to where he is today.

Here, the 2011 Finals is an unavoidable topic. In that year’s Finals, James averaged 17.87.26.8, shot 47.8% from the field, and 32.1% from three-point range. It was James’ worst performance in the Finals. There was also a single

With such a "brave" performance of 8 points per game, to be honest... I don't blame others for thinking he was just putting on a show. If you compare casually before and after, the gap this year is really too big.

Regardless of whether he is, as the conspiracy theory says, if he is not the FMVP champion, he does not want it. The fact is that Wade lost the best opportunity to win the second FMVP.

And if Wade can win the 2011 championship and FMVP, his historical status will definitely be much higher than the three championships.

No wonder others say that Wade is the only player in history whose winning two consecutive championships has caused his historical status to decline.

In the following two years, Wade completely gave up his position as the team leader and the right to control the ball, completely becoming the second in command. Moreover, the Heat's unhealthy Big Three model aggravated Wade's injuries, because forming the Big Three

The Heat's salary space was overdrawn and there was no chance for reinforcements. At the same time, the Heat played a very oppressive switching defense, pressing and counterattacking style, which was equivalent to an enhanced version of unlimited switching defense. After Bosh was injured in the 2012 playoffs, Wade was even more

Being forced into the power forward position can be said to have directly overdrawn his career.

After winning the second championship, Wade was actually unable to adapt to the role James needed to play in the team, and that's why he was beaten by the Spurs 14 times.

Wade, who lost his health, did not wait for James to renew his contract after all. Instead, he waited for the news that James would recruit Love and return to the Cavaliers to reorganize a new version of the Big Three...

Think about the consequences if Wade doesn't give up the ball. He also said something like Green: We were already the champions before you came. Plus, this is my team... Lao Zhan's career can still be as smooth as it is later.

What.

All I can say is that Wade is interesting enough, but unfortunately, he looks like a tool.

Later, Wade may have had second thoughts. In the interview, he also said that if they had to do it again, they would not form a Big Three. He also said that this completely changed the atmosphere of the league.

But now, Wade still cares about James' feelings. In the first quarter, he only took two shots and scored 2 points. The rest of the time, he screened, spread, screen, spread. He played like a team leader.

It's all so that Lao Zhan can defeat Zuo Li.

"Well, I must take away the victory tonight!" James also regrouped. With the support of his brothers, so what if he was a lone hero for once!

Zuo Li: "..."

Tsk, how should I put it, there is a big difference between a lone hero and a forced lone hero.

Can’t others in the Heat attack?

No, at least Wade and Bosh can. James' biggest problem this season is that he wants to prove himself too much, which leads him to run counter to victory.

After all, how can a lone hero always be alone? At least in the Knicks, a lone hero is never alone.

In the second quarter, Zuo Li took a solid rest for 3 minutes. Anderson and David Lee came on the bench, while Ke Liu, Dragic and Danny Green played on the outside.

Facing the Heat's substitute lineup led by James and Bosh, they did not fall behind at all, and Anderson even had the wonderful performance of Flying Blood Cap Jones!

Zuo Li looked very high from the sidelines, wondering what the Heat would do to protect the rim next season without the Birdman.

When Zuo Li returned, the Knicks still held a 5-point advantage. The Heat and James continued to break out of the pinch and had already scored 25 points.

But Zuo Li was not worried. He was too tired. If this continued, a decline in the second half was inevitable, but he was very relaxed and didn't even sweat much.

This depends on his teammates. Although the Knicks also focus on Zuo Li tonight, everyone else performs their own duties, making every ball for Zuo Li easy.

Hook shot, alley-oop, inside cut, tip-in...

Zuo Li still played easily and freely in this quarter, scoring 16 points in 7 shots, two of which were two plus one.

With 35 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists in the half, Zuo Li suppressed James, who had 30 points and 5 rebounds in the half.

The Knicks also entered the second half with a 9-point lead of 60-51.

In the second half, Zuo Li came directly on the scene and continued to pick and roll with Curry to attack the inside while the iron was hot. After 2 and a half minutes, Haslem couldn't hold it anymore. He fouled 4 times and was replaced by Anthony.

After this substitution, James' breakthrough was directly blocked, and Joel Anthony didn't know how to pick and roll!

Zuo Li stood inside and stopped coming out. James went in with a pick-and-roll... It can be seen that it was already much slower than the first quarter. After all, according to James's style of play today, even the gods will feel tired.

So Zuo Li seized the opportunity and directly defended the big block to teach Lao Zhan a lesson.

Curry counterattacked the fast break and caused Chalmers to foul.

Side kick!

"I'll do it!" James replaced Bosh and took the initiative to lead the defense against Zuo Li from the top of the arc.

Having just been served by a big hat, he must find his place again!

"Oh ho ho, what happened to James tonight? He actually took the initiative to defend Zuo Li!" Barkley straightened up, wouldn't he look good in such a matchup?

It has to be said that James stuck close to him and pushed Zuo Li with his hand, not wanting Zuo Li to turn around and break through.

However, Zuo Li can also call a pick-and-roll!

"Zach!"

"coming!"

Randolph's huge butt directly blocked James from bypassing the pick-and-roll. Facing Bosh, Zuo Li shook continuously. Just when everyone thought Zuo Li was about to break through, Zuo Li suddenly threw it into the sky.

On the wing, in the corner where no one was paying attention, Danny Green made an alley-oop behind Bosh and completed a dunk!

"Look, this is the essence of a lone hero."

Basketball is for five people!
