Super Role Player

Anxi came to the offensive end and found that the Heat had indeed switched defense.

They replaced Courtney Lee and asked Courtney Lee to defend Anxi full-time, so that they would not be afraid of missing Anxi at critical moments.

But what is surprising is that Anxi's shot was very simple. After dormant in the bottom corner for a while, he came out directly, passed Asik's screen, and caught the basketball at the top of the key.

In this position, he had not completely gotten rid of Courtney Lee's defense, but Anxi took action directly! A pull-up three-pointer from the outside!

David Fizdale's eyes widened: Is this guy a waste of money?

But the next second, with a swish sound, Anxi faced the defense and shot a three-pointer! Come in again!

All the Miami fans in the audience let out a cry of surprise, and they who were still chanting "defense" suddenly fell silent.

"Anxi's fourth three-pointer of the game. After reappearing in the second half, Anxi was in hot form and scored 7 points in a row!"

"65:72, the point difference between the two teams is only 7 points. David Fizdale has played all his cards. Can they still prevent the 76ers from narrowing the point difference?"

Anxi performed strongly after returning to the field, and David Fizdale could only direct his team from the sidelines to try his best to attack in the next round.

Seeing that their lead is getting smaller and smaller, the Heat's offense becomes very important. The Heat need to score points and continue to maintain their lead.

Dwyane Wade held the ball, and faced Jack Crowder's defense, he chose to break through.

After the breakthrough, Dwyane Wade attracted Anxi's defense. Wade glanced at the bottom corner with his peripheral vision, and LeBron James had a clear path in front of him.

So Wade passed the basketball directly to the bottom corner.

LeBron James did not choose to shoot. In this game, his outside touch was average, so he chose to cut inside. At this time, Anxi made up for it, blocking LeBron James's only way to rush to the basket.

But when LeBron James rushed to the position one step in front of Anxi, he had already raised his hand and sent the basketball towards the basket.

An Xi didn't even think about it, and suddenly reached out and patted it.

But I didn’t take the exact location in Anxi this time.

It hit LeBron James' wrist first, and there was a clear snap.

The referee immediately blew the whistle to indicate a defensive foul in Anxi.

Anxi shrugged and walked aside.

"Anxi committed a foul. He was trying to block the shot, but he hit too hard and seemed to have missed the right position." Kenny Smith in the commentary box also shrugged and said with a smile.

"This is Anxi's fourth foul in this game, which is not too few. He still needs to pay attention to the number of fouls he has committed." Craig Sager looked at the technical statistics and said.

LeBron James stepped to the free throw line, and MVP shouts could be heard faintly from a corner of the court. LeBron James performed really well in this game. Before the third quarter was over, he had already scored 27 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists. Best on the Heat team.

But Anxi is not bad either. Although its performance in the first and middle of the second quarter was not good, Anxi has scored 29 points through three three-pointers in the second half of the second quarter and its performance so far in the third quarter. points, and 3 rebounds and 4 assists. The overall performance was still outclassed by LeBron James.

Therefore, the Heat are still in the lead now.

LeBron James went to the free throw line and, amid vague MVP shouts, made one of two free throws, widening the point difference to 8 points.

During the 76ers' offense, Anxi continued to run without the ball. After passing Omer Asik's screen in the mid-range, Anxi went around to the other sideline and received the basketball.

Courtney Lee's mission was to follow Anxi, so he followed him without stopping.

But after receiving the basketball, Anxi still took action, taking off one step inside the three-point line and shooting the basketball.

Courtney Lee also jumped up and his defense was not out of position.

But the ending is still the same. In the disappointed eyes of all Miami fans, the basketball once again passed through the net frame and entered again!

This is Anxi’s 9th point in the third quarter! It was also his 9th consecutive point, and because of Anxi's goal, the point difference narrowed again, 67:73, with only 6 points left, and only two three-pointers were needed to tie the game.

With 2 minutes left in the third quarter, the 76ers had a chance to even out the deficit before the end of the third quarter.

At this time, Miami fans and commentators who had previously believed that the Heat were certain to win could no longer remain calm. The 76ers were coming fiercely, and the Heat seemed to have fallen into a slump. If the Heat did not break out, the 76ers would have equalized the score. , and then gradually won.

"Perhaps David Fizdale should consider letting the Big Three come down to rest. The Big Three who played the entire third quarter are obviously a little exhausted. Look at Anxi. After two minutes of rest, they scored 9 points in a row as soon as they came out. Compared to the Heat, it's a completely different story."

Charles Barkley sincerely expressed his opinions in the commentary box. David Fizdale must not have heard it. Even if he heard it, David Fizdale would not dare to let the Big Three take a rest at this time.

All David Fizdale could do was call a long timeout, adjust tactics, and let the main players rest.

After a timeout, David Fizdale also made a substitution. LeBron James, one of the Big Three, could not move. Considering that James's outside attack was a great threat to the 76ers, David Fizdale considered Suddenly, he chose to replace Bosh with Rashard Lewis.

On the one hand, Bosh is allowed to take a rest in order to take over the game in the fourth quarter, and on the other hand, Lewis is allowed to come on to provide more stable three-point firepower.

The timeout ends and both teams return to the court.

LeBron James began to take control of the ball on the offensive end. After half-time, he had no intention of stopping. Instead, he directly controlled the ball and accelerated toward Anxi, then crushed it all the way into the penalty area.

In the penalty area, LeBron James was very careful in his layup. In order not to be blocked by Anxi, he first made a fake move to deceive Anxi's defensive focus, and then slowly put the basketball into the basket.

LeBron James broke into the penalty area and scored 2 points, which finally stopped the Heat's bleeding, and the point difference returned to 8 points.

The American Airlines Arena became lively again, with cheers one after another.

When the 76ers made a mistake on the offensive end, McAway's pass to Anxi was almost intercepted. Although Anxi counterattacked, he missed the shot against LeBron James' defense in a hurry. American Airlines Arena was like As if the game had been won, huge cheers erupted, even mixed with some curses.

"Chinaman, you are a waste in front of lbj!"

"lbj, go fuck him s*** we need to win!"

…

Anxi had a cold face and seemed to have no reaction.

As for the Heat's offense, they were still the same as the previous round, with LeBron James holding the ball and moving towards the half court.

Listening to the curses buzzing in his ears, Anxi suddenly started from the frontcourt, crossed the midfield, and pressed towards LeBron James who was in possession of the ball.

"A single full-court press? Is Anxi crazy? Isn't he afraid of losing his position?" Craig Sagel looked surprised.

When Anxi crossed the half court, the Miami fans on the sidelines became even more excited.

"You overestimated Chinaman, you actually dared to press LeBron for the whole game, you will pay the price!"

…

Anxi didn't seem to hear the ridicule. On the court, he suddenly rushed to LeBron James' side, then stretched out his long arms and wrapped around LeBron James.

Kenny Smith exclaimed: "Death Coil, Anxi's idea is too bold. He wants to steal the basketball from LeBron James' hands from the backcourt, but this is too difficult!"

LeBron James was entangled by Anxi. He made a small change of direction and got some space.

But Anxi also moved laterally in time to block LeBron James, and then used his long arms to aggressively take out the basketball in LeBron James' hand.

LeBron James dodged for a moment, and then made a drastic change of direction. Time was running out, and LeBron James knew that he could no longer tangle with Anxi in the backcourt.

But Anxi's judgment was extremely accurate, and he also made a timely lateral move and continued to block LeBron James.

LeBron James was immediately forced into a corner. He had no choice but to turn around and try to pass Anxi.

At this time, Anxi's right arm, which had been trying to steal the ball, made progress at this critical moment.

The moment LeBron James turned around, Anxi's right hand touched the basketball!

Anxi jumped up, and countless fans on the sidelines looked horrified. No sound came out of their mouths, but looking at the shape of their mouths, they all seemed to be shouting: "No!"

When the fans on the sidelines shouted, it was too late!

Anxi had already taken a lunge, grabbed the basketball in his hands, then took two steps and jumped directly outside the three-point line!

"Steal! Anxi actually stole LeBron James!"

"Crushing defense! LeBron James is defeated!"

And just when countless commentators exclaimed in surprise, Anxi's next move surprised them again.

"A direct three-point shot? Oh no! That's crazy!"

A sudden three-pointer!

The basketball drew a fatal arc in the air, like a precision-guided missile, and hit the basket accurately!

LeBron James, who was staggering in his rush to retreat during the half, hugged his head the moment the basketball entered the frame.

"The crucial three-pointer! It went in, and it was still Anxi! He used magical pressing defense! And a magical three-pointer, defeated LeBron James in a one-on-one matchup!"

"This galactic battleship of the Heat's Big Three! It's about to sink!"

Kenny Smith directly asserted that the Heat would lose the game when the 76ers were still 5 points behind. Craig Sagel looked at Kenny Smith in surprise.

But the final result did not surprise Kenny Smith. The 76ers counterattacked in the third quarter and took the lead.

In the final decisive battle, Anxi completely dominated the game.

In the last 18 seconds of the game, Anxi used a killer fadeaway jumper to turn the score into 103:98. The 76ers led by 5 points in 18 seconds, and the Heat could only launch a wave of quick attacks.

But their quick shot missed and the rebound was grabbed by Gasol.

The final stage of the game turned into a foul stage for both teams. The 76ers kept going to the free throw line, but the game had lost its suspense.

In the end, the 76ers defeated the Heat 105:98, a difference of 7 points.

At this time, not only Kenny Smith was shouting, but also countless commentators were shouting: "3:1, the 76ers got the match point! The Heat battleship is about to sink!" (To be continued.)
