Not only did Sun Ce make the shot, Wade also slapped Sun Ce on the right shoulder. Sun Ce's goal was valid and there was an additional penalty!

The Heat called a timeout!

I bumped into Paul George. Paul George was almost knocked out of breath, but James seemed to be in more pain. His expression was extremely anxious!

It wasn't physical pain. He remembered where the feeling he didn't want to think deeply came from and what the shadow was. It was the finals two years ago!

At that time, there were four finals games, and in three of them entering the final quarter, the Heat and the Mavericks were evenly matched, with a very small point difference, and even one game was a draw.

But in the final quarter, Nowitzki could make whatever shots he wanted. Kidd used Nowitzki to average 10+ points per game in the final quarter of four games, linking the team together and sweeping the Heat!

Everything is connected!

James recalled that after the first quarter, Sun Ce and Randolph stopped attacking in the second quarter, and instead asked Nash to coordinate the team's offense. In the third quarter, Sun Ce and Randolph took turns to attack... This is similar to the 2011 Mavericks.

The playing style is similar. Although the characters have changed greatly and the details of the playing style are also different, the strategy is the same!

In fact, James and his head coach Spoelstra both discovered the Grizzlies' strategy and knew that the opponent wanted to compete and play critical moments, but they did not associate it with the 2011 Mavericks.

But in the fourth quarter, Sun Ce made 3 of 3 shots and scored 6 points, with a chance for extra free throws. This desperate hot touch was exactly the same as Nowitzki's at that time!

Not only James saw it, but others also saw it!

Most of the players from the 2011 Heat team are still on the team, and they are basically the main players... Of course, the players who did not perform well on that Heat team, who were not the core or main players, have long been traded or left.

The contract was not renewed.

38 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks and 4 steals, 26 points so far in the second half... There are still nearly 9 minutes left in the fourth quarter!

James feels that Sun Ce is even scarier than Nowitzki in 2011! Nowitzki is limited by his physical strength, but there is no way he can finish the third quarter and then fight in the fourth quarter like Sun Ce. He still has to rely on Yao Ming, Kidd and money.

Dele and DeShawn Stephenson's pick-and-roll combination supported the first three quarters, and Nowitzki took over the game in the fourth quarter. This can be seen from the fact that Nowitzki averaged 27 points per game in the finals that year.

Not much.

But Sun Ce scored 20 points in the third quarter, and in the fourth quarter he played harder and harder as if his physical strength was not affected!

As a veteran, James knows that it's not that Sun Ce is getting faster, it's not that Sun Ce is jumping higher and higher, it's not that Sun Ce's reactions are getting more and more sensitive; it's that their physical strength is declining, it's that they are getting slower and slower, making them jump faster and faster.

They are getting shorter and shorter, which makes their reaction slower!

The Heat are pinning their hopes on Sun Ce's hand feeling declining due to the timeout, but they have to face a more cruel reality. The Grizzlies are four up and four down!

After the timeout, the Grizzlies sent out a lineup of Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Randolph, and Gasol.

The Heat also made substitutions, with the strongest lineup of Wade, Ray Allen, James, Bosh, and Nene taking the field.

Sun Ce came up and hit the extra free throw, 91 to 86. The Grizzlies went on a 9-4 run, leading by 5 points!

The shadow of the Heat's past emerged, and this game was very similar to the first game of the Finals two years ago.

James hastily chose to take a gamble. Instead of breaking through the pick-and-roll, he took advantage of Jimmy Butler's defensive retreat and shot a three-pointer one meter away from the three-point line...

The guest commentator on the Imperial TV station imitated the tone of a certain Comey and said it - this is unreasonable!

This is not James' rhythm. Most of his three-pointers were used to widen the gap when he was leading, rather than used as key balls. He missed!

Randolph grabbed the defensive rebound before the rushing Bosh and Wade, and quickly passed it to Sun Ce. Sun Ce protected the ball and encountered James' full-court pressing defense!

Give James a little more time to calm down, and he can adjust, but now, the terrifying scene from back then has enveloped his mind, making him even more impatient.

Sun Ce passed the ball to Jimmy Butler, who judged the opportunity and started a fast break. Sun Ce was stuck and Gasol couldn't keep up, but Randolph and Klay Thompson caught up. Jimmy-

Butler used Randolph to follow up and attract the defense, passing to Klay Thompson. Klay Thompson hit a chasing three-pointer. 94 to 86, the Grizzlies led by 8 points!

This time, the Grizzlies did not expect that they would counterattack so easily. James was the defensive centerpiece of the Heat. He did not retreat but pressed the whole court, which was so difficult for the Heat to control the position.

A little hurts a lot!

The importance of the core is self-evident, whether it is the offensive core or the defensive core, such as the Spurs, if Duncan goes away, the defense will drop a big level, the 76ers' Howard defense will collapse, and the 76ers' entire defense will collapse directly.

The point difference changed from 5 points to 8 points, which seemed to be just one ball, but it would be difficult for the Heat to recover this ball, because the Grizzlies were not leading by a ball, but by 8 points, and they had to score at least 3

It takes a goal to overtake, which gives the Grizzlies a huge psychological advantage and can grind it out slowly.

Hard work, the Grizzlies like it best!

At the official timeout in the fourth quarter, the Heat worked hard for two rounds and raised the score to 90 points. However, Randolph also took advantage of the restraints of Sun Ce and Klay Thompson and scored 4 points in singles inside.

Wade irrationally got entangled with Klay Thompson. Klay Thompson looked at Wade with compassionate eyes. Nothing happened, but Wade got a technical foul. Klay Thompson made a free throw with a technical foul. The Grizzlies

The score was raised to 99 points before the official timeout!

During the official timeout, Coach Hollins replaced Klay Thompson, who came up in the fourth quarter and scored 4 points. Although Randolph is not afraid of fighting, if a fight does break out and a player is suspended, their Grizzlies

The impact on the team will definitely be greater than that of the opponent. As far as this game is concerned, all the players they played are indispensable.

Moreover, with a 9-point lead, no matter what offense, coach Hollins even replaced Randolph and sent out a lineup of Sun Ce, Jimmy Butler, Tony Allen, Paul George, and Gasol.

Trailing by 9 points in 5 minutes and 38 seconds, the lineup the Grizzlies put on couldn't even be described as a tank lineup. It was simply a terrifying combination of titanium alloy and diamonds!

Completely and without reservation give up the offense and just play defense!

James wanted to curse at this moment, not to curse others, but to curse himself!
