NBA: Starting with James Harden

After a whole day of training, Li Zhen was a little tired.

Of course, Li Zhen was tired but happy. He liked this kind of stable life and didn't have to worry about his contract and future.

"System, I train so hard all day, how many attribute points can I gain?"

"1 o'clock"

"so little?"

"Quite a lot. Normal intensity training won't give you any. Only high intensity training like today will give you attribute bonus points."

"All right."

Li Zhen knew that getting stronger through training would take time, so he didn't worry too much about it.

The rest time passed quickly.

February 21.

The Mavericks faced the challenge of the Miami Heat at home.

After the Mavericks lost the game against the Cavaliers, their record was 34 wins and 21 losses, ranking fifth in the Western Conference. They need to rank as high as possible in the next two months to ensure their home advantage in the playoffs. The

Miami Heat's record is 29 wins and 27 losses. Led by Wade, they ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference.

The Eastern Conference is weaker than the Western Conference. As long as the winning rate is over 50%, they can generally enter the playoffs.

Normally speaking, there is not much suspense when the fifth in the West plays the sixth in the East at home.

But Terry, the second attacker of the Mavericks, is still absent, which makes the strength of the two teams look evenly matched...............

This focus battle filled the Airline Arena again.

After the entrance ceremony, Li Zhen could vaguely feel the change in his vision when he stood on the court.

Li Zhen wore the No. 6 jersey. Among the fans in the Airline Center, there were also hundreds of people wearing his No. 6 jersey.

The Airline Center can seat nearly 20,000 people, and these hundreds of people sitting together are also very eye-catching.

Although the number of fans is much smaller than that of the No. 41 jersey, Li Zhen still feels very happy.

This is a feeling of being respected by fans. He is a star with fans.

After the ceremony, with 2 minutes of adjustment time, Li Zhen began to look at his opponent.

Looking at Wade on the opposite side, who was hanging his hands on the basket and stuffing his head under the basket to make indecent movements, Li Zhen was filled with emotion.

Riley was not good to Wade, especially in the last years of his career, which was humiliating.

But Wade was definitely good to the Heat.

3 championships!!

Wade can be said to be the number one player in the Heat.

This season, Wade averaged 26.6 points, 6.5 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game, and he ranks fifth in the MVP rankings. The only player who has done better than him in the Eastern Conference is James.

Even in the entire league, he is the second best shooting guard in the league after Kobe.

The Mavericks and the Heat are sworn enemies.

In 2006, Wade almost single-handedly defeated the Mavericks in the finals, which also delayed Nowitzki's first championship in his career.

Thinking of this, Li Zhen felt that his boss, King Nowitzki, had been miserable in recent years.

After losing in the 2006 finals, he was defeated by the Warriors in the 2008 finals....

Nowitzki has played at a super-giant level, but he is still considered a softie by the media and fans.

Just like Durant in his previous life, he has won countless honors, but fans still shout that he needs to prove his strength again.

In addition to Wade, the Heat needs to pay special attention to Michael Beasley and Jermaine O'Neal, two inside players. Both of them average nearly 15 points per game and can create a certain threat.

However, Li Zhen feels that the Heat's lineup is still too weak compared to the Mavericks. Even without Terry, the Mavericks can still play against them. The current Mavericks are seriously underestimated.

While Li Zhen was secretly spitting at his opponent, Wade also completed the pre-game ceremony. He showed his big white teeth in the direction of Li Zhen.

Li Zhen could feel the playful attitude in Wade's eyes.

Wade and James are good friends. In the last call between the two, James told Wade that he could pay a little attention to Li Zhen, the rookie.

Li Zhen left a deep impression on James.

Wade is naturally interested in people who James is interested in.

Being targeted by a superstar like Wade was not good news for Li Zhen.

But Li Zhen was never afraid of challenges. He immediately glared back at Wade......

Wade was immediately amused when he saw Li Zhen's reaction. He laughed even more happily, with his cheeks puffing up.

Li Zhen was even more speechless and turned away. You have cheeks, so you are awesome.......

The game started soon.

Mavericks starters: Kidd, Butler, Marion, Nowitzki, Dampier.

Heat starters: Chalmers, Wade, Richardson, Beasley, Jermaine O'Neal.

Although the Heat's lineup on paper is not afraid of the Mavericks, their power is far less than the Mavericks' low-key lineup.

Coach Spo is too young in front of Carlisle, and Wade enjoys the crazy double-teaming of Butler and Marion.

Beasley is not up to the task again, and he can't beat Nowitzki in the interior.

Beasley's playing style is not three or four, and he relies more on the ball, but the Heat's ball is in Wade's hands, so Beasley's scoring efficiency is naturally not high.

At the beginning of the first quarter, the Heat's offense was fragmented, while the Mavericks played well under Kidd's connection.

Nowitzki's comeback gave the Mavericks' tactics a fulcrum. Under Carlisle's tactical system, Kidd can easily find various ways to score that make Nowitzki comfortable.

The Heat's hit rate was very low. After the first quarter, they shot 29%.

Such a low hit rate naturally made the Heat's defense exhausted.

Although the Mavericks' lineup is old, Kidd and Butler are also masters of counterattacks. They occasionally give the Heat one or two fast breaks.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 19 to 29, and the Mavericks led by 10 points at home.

In the second quarter, the Heat's state warmed up. Wade began to stand on the free throw line frequently and use the whistle to score. The Mavericks' defensive intensity also went down, and the Heat continued to close the score.

Soon, after the first half, the two teams tied 50 to 50.
