Chapter 1841: After Waiting for a Long Time, Brothers, Let’s End the Game!
On June 5th, at the home court of the Miami Heat, Game 3 of the Finals between the Lakers and the Heat was in full swing!
Before this game, Lakers core general Ji Feng suffered from a flu attack and was admitted to the emergency room with a severe cold. He missed training before the game. Although he returned to the roster at the last moment and sat on the bench, he never played in the first half. Taking advantage of this opportunity, The Heat always had the advantage in the first half. James was in great shape with 20 points in the half. The Heat eventually led by 9 points entering the second half.
During the halftime break, a controversial incident occurred that would go down in NBA history. James and Way imitated Ji Feng's cough and teased Ji Feng in the player tunnel. They were accidentally recorded by a reporter hidden in the dark with a camera, and were immediately recorded. Posted on the Internet, it immediately triggered a huge controversy in sports circles around the world. Against this background, Ji Feng made a comeback, played the entire quarter, and sent out 13 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds, leading the Lakers to a 14-point lead in a single quarter. The Lakers also Completed a single quarter reversal and entered the fourth quarter decisive battle with a 4-point advantage!
However, just when the Lakers fans felt that they could win the game in one go, the game became unstable again. Ji Feng, who played the entire third quarter and suppressed James, had to rest on the bench due to fatigue. This also gave the Heat hope!
When Heat coach Spoelstra saw that Ji Feng could not play, he immediately sent out a pure main lineup in an attempt to regain the advantage during Ji Feng's absence. The Lakers also replaced Ji Feng with a pure main lineup to deal with it.
The fourth quarter started in a tense atmosphere. The Heat attacked very fiercely, and James and Wade were very determined in their offense, but the game was once again unexpected.
The Lakers adopted resolute foul tactics. On the one hand, they suppressed the rhythm and the Heat's position. On the other hand, they resolutely committed fouls to block the Heat's chance to score directly!
So the long three minutes began!
"The Lakers paid four fouls and committed three fouls in these three minutes, and they also tried every means to slow down the rhythm, including complaining about the referees. This made the game on the court cut into pieces. The three-minute game was stunned. After playing for 21 minutes and 21 seconds, both sides only scored 4 points. It has to be said that this is a very rare situation in the history of the finals. "On TNT TV station, Barkley played with the microphone of his mobile phone boredly. I will fall asleep in these few minutes.
However, he had also thought about it. The Lakers should have done this to allow Ji Feng on the bench to have enough rest time. I have to say that this strong brotherhood made Barkley a little touched.
Of course, the Heat's home commentator could only feel furious. He angrily denounced the Lakers, saying bluntly that this was a shame to the basketball world!
"It is shameless to stop the opponent with constant fouls. This is a shame in the finals. NBA officials should ban this style of play!"
It could be seen that he was really angry, so much so that his brain was not working very well.
There was no way, he was anxious, he also guessed the Lakers' intention, and no doubt the Heat players should also know it, so they have been trying to play fast, trying to avoid fouls and giving the Lakers a chance to stop the ball, but with little success. .
The Lakers defended so well that the Heat couldn't find a chance to counterattack. I have to say that the Lakers are a strong team. They can always find their own rhythm and suppress the opponent's rhythm.
Janeway lost his temper in such a rhythm and could only play strictly, but everyone saw the effect.
As ESPN said: "Reasonable use of rules is something a team must learn, otherwise O'Neal will not be banned!"
O'Neill felt very embarrassed...
And 3 minutes later, the scene that Heat fans least wanted to see happened. Ji Feng stood up from the bench, extended his hand to signal, and stood on the bench amid boos from the audience!
But somewhere out of sight, Lakers fans cheered!
"Come on, Ji Feng! Kill them!"
"It's now! We are the champions!"
“To put out the heat today!”
The Lakers players were also straightforward enough. When they saw Ji Feng coming up, they immediately committed a foul. Artest committed four fouls and sent James to the free throw line!
But Artest didn't care. When James scored his 30th point on a free throw, Artest was also substituted.
"Leave it to you, man. I don't want to play today, so I'm begging you. Promise me, you must show them some color!" Artest said while high-fiving Ji Feng on the sidelines.
"Believe me." Ji Feng bumped shoulders with Artest and then walked into the court.
"Ji Feng is back on the court again! The final battle is coming!" Barkley was no longer sleepy in an instant.
James seemed to be affected by this substitution. On the second free throw, Ji Feng jumped high and controlled the rebound.
"Not bad, it's a rebound!" Director Zhang was relieved. From Ji Feng's jump, it looked like he could still play.
However, it still depends on the offensive end to let Ji Feng win. After James made one of two free throws, the Lakers only led by one point. This offense is also a key offense.
The Lakers didn't pretend anymore, the ball was always in Ji Feng's hands, holding the ball at the top of the key, 1-4!
"Is this a singles game?" Yu Jia was a little doubtful. This didn't seem to be a good choice. Ji Feng's previous goals were not scored in singles.
But Ji Feng attacked very resolutely!
James also thought that Ji Feng would not attack, so James was startled when Ji Feng broke through with the ball, but he immediately adjusted his position. Logically speaking, the hesitation of a few tenths of a second is usually enough for Ji Feng to break through, but Ji Feng was not there this time, which shows the impact of illness on Ji Feng's condition.
But Ji Feng completed the cool move in an instant. He held the ball in his right hand and directly hit it with his crotch. James was staggered directly!
"Oh!!!" the scene exclaimed.
Ji Feng did not stop choosing shots, but immediately pulled back his right hand and broke through again. This time Ji Feng directly hit James and knocked him away!
Then…
Kill in! ! !
Ji Feng, who entered the paint, didn't stop. He flew directly and dunked. Bosh seemed to be frightened and forgot to block the shot for a moment.
Bang!
Ji Feng dunks with one arm, full of dominance!
"Roar!" Ji Feng roared to the sky as he landed, while Bosh became a messy background beside him...
The camera also panned James, who was broken through by Ji Feng. He was now petrified...
"It's so exciting! The one-arm dunk after breaking through James, Ji Feng is back!!!" Barkley roared. No one expected Ji Feng to handle the ball like this. He persisted like a god descending from heaven.
"Let us end the game...!" Ji Feng celebrated wildly with his teammates who came over!
This ball made the Lakers explode again!
After that, the Heat's attack failed, and the Lakers seized the opportunity. Ji Feng assisted, and Kobe succeeded with an empty cut under the unmarked basket.
Then Lao Yu completed the steal, the Lakers fell into position, and Bynum forced himself inside to become Haslem's thug!
Two free throws were made at the free throw line, and the Lakers instantly went on a 6-0 run, widening the point difference to 7 points! ! !
