Chapter 114: 24 points in the first half, 0 points in the second half! The dominance of the youngest

During the first half, Heat fans were still screaming on the Internet.

Hahaha, you MVP is so awesome that you hit me with a gun. If you have the ability to hit me with a gun, I'm afraid of being an MVP!

Isn’t the MVP the one who scored 24 points in the first half because of me?

But in the second half, Ryan directly silenced Heat fans.

Heat fans are still terrified. Is there really no one in this world who can break Ryan's defense?

Wasn't Wade such a perverted breakthrough player that he could be held down so many times in a row?

First it was Kobe, then Nowitzki and Parker, and now it's Wade.

Ryan, you are really not picky about food, you can eat any type of food!

Heat godfather Riley felt helpless at this time. Although Riley created the Lakers showtime, for most of his coaching career, Riley was not very good at attacking.

Since leaving the Lakers, Riley has brought out all defensive teams.

Especially for the Knicks in the 1990s, the huge gap between offensive and defensive abilities has always been the reason why they were unable to go further.

The current Heat actually don't have many complicated offensive tactics. The only difference between them and the Knicks is that they have a top breakthrough player like Wade.

All the team's offenses are based on the basis of "Wade breaks through and destroys the opponent's defensive formation."

Once Wade is locked up, the Heat's offense is basically useless.

During this period, the Sharks were no longer able to dominate the game in the low post.

So Riley has a headache now, not knowing how to break Ryan's invincible pressing defense.

Riley could only bet that his physical fitness would collapse before Ryan could defeat the Heat with such defense!

You know, Riley himself is also a master of pressing defense, and he knows very well how tiring this defensive method is.

No matter how weak Ryan is in terms of physical fitness, if he keeps defending like this, he will be exhausted in one game!

Then by the fourth quarter, the sizzling Miami Fire will ignite the entire Denver!

So after returning from the timeout, the Heat still had no change in strategy. They completely treated Wade as a donkey of the production team and continued to let him and Ryan compete head-on.

There is nothing we can do about it. In the original 2006 Finals, Wade averaged 34.7 points per game. Walker, who ranked second on the team in scoring, dropped to only 13.8 points in an instant.

It's self-evident how much the Heat's offense relies on Wade.

Riley has been waiting for the moment when Ryan's physical fitness completely collapses, but after playing for a while in the third quarter, Wade's mentality is about to collapse, and Ryan's physical fitness has not collapsed yet!

After returning from the timeout, the game situation was no different from before. Throughout the third quarter, Wade was stunned without a single successful score!

Pressure and physical combat made it difficult for him to easily penetrate the inside, and fierce confrontation swallowed up his shooting touch.

After all, Wade is not an AI that is 10 centimeters taller. If the AI ​​was pressed so hard, he would definitely be able to get rid of the defense with his superb dribbling skills.

But Wade's current dribbling level makes it difficult for him to get out of this situation easily. The only reason why he doesn't make many mistakes is that Ryan doesn't make many steals.

Otherwise, the Heat would probably be even worse now.

24 points in the first half, 0 points in the third quarter!

After the third quarter, the Nuggets already led by 15 points!

In this quarter, the Nuggets unexpectedly went out 28-13!

At the end of the third quarter, Wade, who was sitting on the bench, punched the back of the bench.

Damn Nike!

Before the finals, there were rumors that Nike wanted to buy out Wade and recruit him.

At that time, fans said: "Stars associated with Nike often don't end well when they meet Ryan."

Wade didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but looking at it now, this hook is really unlucky!

All we can say is that Wade is still young.

How do you unlock your dream dance skills without wearing Nike?

Riley looked at the 15-point deficit and pretended to be calm in front of the players.

Many people only know Riley as a tough guy and a defensive guru.

But in fact, Riley is also very good at making chicken soup.

At this time, Riley told everyone calmly: "When the Nuggets play like this, the defense is the most likely to suddenly collapse! Ryan is just holding on, they will be finished if they hold on any longer!"

This may not be of much use to veterans such as Shark, but it really has a great motivating effect on a young man like Wade who can be toughened by a little teasing.

Wade clenched his fists. He went through all the trouble to get to the finals, not just to be a foil to Ryan!

On-site commentator Kevin Harlan also thought so:

"Although the Heat are 15 points behind, the game is not over yet.

There's no way Ryan could still hold Wade back from scoring a point in the fourth quarter, right?

I know Ryan is very strong, but to directly shut down a player like Wade in the second half is too exaggerated.

As long as Wade can play, the entire Heat offense will be revitalized!

The Nuggets haven't won yet! "

When Kevin Harlan said this, he somewhat wanted to regain face for himself.

After all, he yelled at Wade during halftime, and Wade scored 0 points in the third quarter.

He believed that the third quarter was just an incident, and there was no way Ryan would lock Wade in two consecutive quarters.

However, Reggie Miller laughed: "You have no idea what it means to win DPOY at the age of 21. Ryan has both the vitality of a young man and his mature defensive ability. What happened in the third quarter was not an accident!"

When Reggie Miller said this, Heat fans quit.

You mean Wade still has to swallow duck eggs in the fourth quarter?

How is that possible! ?

Even if Ryan is the youngest MVP+DPOY, it is impossible to do it!

On the first attack after the start of the fourth quarter, Heat fans were delighted to find that Ryan actually missed an open mid-range jumper.

At that time, Ryan made a reverse run + off-ball screen, completely throwing Wade away. Although Wade actively rushed forward, he was still unable to interfere with Ryan because of the distance.

As we all know, Ryan rarely misses open mid-range shots.

But with this shot, Ryan's shot hit the edge of the basket, which was obviously a short shot.

The shooting power has become smaller, which shows that Ryan has lost his energy!

His physical strength must have been exhausted!

Next, is Wade's lawless moment!

Ryan was panting and looking very tired indeed.

Abnormal physical strength does not mean unlimited physical strength, it just lasts longer than others, but it will eventually run out.

The pressure and defense throughout the quarter really made Ryan quite tired.

Wade approached Ryan again, but Ryan continued to grit his teeth and press on again!

But this time, Wade, who was prepared, turned around with Ryan as his axis at the moment Ryan rushed forward, and passed Ryan directly.

In front of the TV, Heat fans cheered. It's coming, Wade's crazy performance is finally coming again!

But before Wade could fully increase his speed, Kirilenko attacked from a flank.

Wade glanced at Walker, who was left short but was feeling really crappy today, and decided to rely on his AK47 to force a breakthrough!

Wade used his speed to squeeze past AK, drive straight into the paint, and leap for a layup.

At this time, Birdman Anderson, who came on the bench, returned to the basket and jumped up to try to block the shot.

But Riley and Heat fans both felt that Anderson could not succeed. With Wade's speed, the Birdman had no time to make up the defense!

As long as Wade rushes up, the defense is useless!

However, Heat fans did not see Wade's passionate dunk or successful goal.

They only saw the Birdman Dapeng covering the entire penalty area with its wings spread, and slapped Wade's layup back to the ground with a fierce slap!

Wade suffered a bloody blow from a birdman!

Every Heat fan was speechless. When did the Birdman become so fast? He was able to defend Wade in such a timely manner!

It's not Birdman who's fast, it's Wade who's slow!

Just after Wade broke through Ryan, he was able to be defended by AK47, which is enough to explain the problem.

Riley only thinks about Ryan being so defensive in the third quarter, and his physical strength will be overwhelmed. But he overlooked one thing. Wade was so guarded in the third quarter that his physical fitness was also overwhelmed!

Unless one party is fully automatic, this kind of hand-to-hand fighting scene will usually make both parties very tired!

It can even be said that Wade's physical exertion is greater than Ryan's!

Because Ryan could occasionally fish on the offensive end, in the first half, Ryan also deliberately played back, saving a lot of energy.

But Wade is different. He already used up most of his energy by scoring 24 points in the first half. After being pressed in the third quarter, Wade could only be forced to challenge Ryan again and again, with no chance to breathe.

After his physical fitness declined, Wade's speed was actually affected.

Although it won't change from Ferrari to old man's joy, at least it is no longer so incomprehensible!

This is why Birdman was able to defend Wade in time this round!

In the fourth quarter, Heat fans and Riley expected Wade to turn the tide, which was simply a fantasy!

Wade finally broke through Ryan once but still failed to score. This will be the norm in the fourth quarter!

Wade was very unwilling to give the Nuggets the ball, but he could only retreat to defend in despair.

On the offensive end, Ryan is still actively running without the ball to find openings.

Just like before, Ryan used reverse runs and off-ball screens to get rid of Wade, whose speed was no longer so abnormal.

Once again, he caught the ball on the right side of the mid-range and shot directly!

Seeing that Wade could no longer bite Ryan tightly, Riley sighed.

Fortunately for Riley, Ryan was also very tired. The previous missed shot has proved that Ryan's current shooting percentage is also very unstable.

Now even if I let him go occasionally, it won't be a big problem.

But this time, Ryan's shot was no longer short, but directly into the net!

Riley looked desperately at the fluttering net and swallowed as he saw the score difference stretched to 17 points.

Doesn't it mean that the shooting is unstable? ?

Ryan is indeed tired, but it is basically impossible to say that he is hammering like crazy because of this.

Because of Ryan's "opportunist" talent, in addition to increasing the stability of open shots, it can also reduce the impact of physical fitness on open shots!

It's just that Ryan doesn't need to use this effect most of the time.

After all, there are not many people in the league who can make Ryan exhausted.

You can go to Hollywood to find such people.

Ryan missed a shot before, but he simply didn't adjust well.

It’s not because of physical reasons that the aim is completely lost!

Riley is probably quite desperate now. He thought he could fight back after defeating Ryan in the fourth quarter.

But the fact is that Wade was dragged down, but Ryan is still strong!

With a 17-point difference, the Heat now have only a small flame left to struggle.

Score, now the Heat must find a way to score!

Riley stared at Wade. He still stubbornly believed that Ryan could not prevent Wade from scoring a point in the second half!

The Heat are attacking again, and Wade doesn't dare to hold the ball anymore. Once he catches the ball, Ryan will immediately press forward, which will consume his already stretched physical energy faster.

Now, he can only use cuts without the ball to find ways to score.

But Ryan hugged and hugged Wade without the ball, making Wade almost cry.

Ryan! Although we have a good relationship, we are just friends! How could you do this to me! ?

Let me go!

Although the league has entered the No Handcheck era, the toughest defensive days are gone forever.

But during this period, defense without the ball is still quite brutal, especially in the playoffs.

Therefore, it is difficult for Wade to get a chance when his model and strength are not dominant and his speed is slowed down.

With 9 seconds left in the attack time, Wade finally ran out of a gap, received the ball and prepared to go straight to the basket.

But Ryan's defensive timing was so good that he stuck close to Wade the moment he caught the ball, causing Wade to fail to fully pick up the speed when he broke through.

This step was so tight that it made Reggie Miller feel physically uncomfortable, because this scene reminded him of Jordan in the tiebreaker of the 1998 Eastern Conference Finals, when he was guarded against Jordan who couldn't even score a single point in the fourth quarter!

Wade now should be as desperate as he was then.

Wade had no choice but to rely on Ryan to force his way to the basket and then throw the ball toward the basket. But as soon as he threw the ball up, he saw two big hands pressing the basketball directly onto the backboard!

Wade's off-ball escape failed to completely get rid of Ryan, and his reluctant layup ended with Ryan grabbing him with both hands!

Heat fans' heads were "buzzing". Wade was actually guarded again, and he was defenseless!

Now Wade has nothing to do with Ryan with or without the ball!

At this time, all Heat fans are thinking one thing: "Wasn't Wade really completely locked up by Ryan?"

We all know that the youngest DPOY is very strong, but we didn’t expect him to be so perverted!

Ryan caught the risk and completely destroyed Wade in the second half.

Wade is now like a helpless deer falling into the territory of a lion!

Not only Heat fans, Wade's mentality has also collapsed.

Failed attacks again and again, constant consumption of physical strength, disappointing returns again and again, basketball that keeps hammering away.

No matter who is defended like this, he will have a very poor gaming experience.

Wade hasn't even made a free throw in the third quarter so far. He really can't play anymore.

Although the Nuggets did not score on the next attack, the point difference was still 17 points.

But when Wade approached half court again and saw Ryan again, he suddenly felt that it didn't matter whether the Nuggets could score or not.

The Heat can't get in anyway!

At this time, Reggie Miller poked Kevin Harlan next to him with his elbow:

"How is it? I already said that the third quarter was not an accident. The Heat's offensive point was so single that Ryan didn't have any pressure to help defend.

When playing against the Spurs, Ryan occasionally has to help defend Duncan and Manu.

When playing against the Mavericks, the entire Mavericks team is capable of singles play, so Ryan naturally needs to pay attention to assisting in defense.

But against the Heat, Ryan only needs to keep an eye on Wade. He only needs to do this one thing!

So, Dwayne has no chance! "

As soon as Reggie Miller finished speaking, he saw Ryan yelling at Wade on the court:

"Dwayne, why don't I let someone else guard you? I seem to be a bit too strong for you."

Reggie Miller shook his head, Ryan is so cruel, just as cruel as that damn braised egg!

He not only wants to destroy your body, but also your soul!

Wade, who was already close to being autistic, was completely disheartened when Ryan slapped him like this again.

So throughout the fourth quarter, Heat fans still didn't see Wade score any points!

There were even a few dribbling errors.

The distracted Wade faced Ryan's unlimited pressure and couldn't even dribble the ball!

The point difference was getting wider and wider. When the game was about to end with only 1 minute and 08 seconds left, the Nuggets already led by 25 points!

The second half was simply an inhumane massacre.

At the bottom of the TV screen, the director also played Wade's second half statistics: "0 for 11!"

9 of 14 in the first half and 0 of 11 in the second half.

Based on this, Wade only scored 24 points on 25 shots today!

Heat fans naturally no longer expect the game to come back, they just hope.

Wade can at least score a goal in the second half!

This can at least make them feel aggrieved.

Scoring a goal can at least prove that Ryan is not invincible!

At this time, the coaches of both sides have asked the substitute players to go to the technical table to prepare.

Just waiting for a dead ball opportunity, the game will enter garbage time.

This was Wade's last chance to score.

The Nuggets had the ball, and Weber responded to AK's mid-range shot. O'Neal handed the ball to White Chocolate, who immediately counterattacked quickly.

Wade immediately followed up from the other side, and he naturally hoped to score a goal.

Although it was embarrassing to be defended and only score 2 points in the second half, it is still better than not scoring any points!

Wade and White Chocolate flew together, while Ryan ran from the middle to the backcourt.

This No. 0 is still unwilling to let go of the Heat!

However, this is still a two-on-one frontcourt game, and Wade is still very likely to break the scoring drought.

White Chocolate held the ball and headed towards the basket, and Ryan's position naturally shifted towards him.

Just when Ryan's attention was completely attracted by White Chocolate, White Chocolate made a back pass and passed the ball to Wade on the other side!

Heat fans clenched their fists in excitement. There was no way Ryan could have stopped this shot, right? Because at this time Ryan was facing the white chocolate on the right, and Wade caught the basketball behind Ryan and jumped directly for a layup.

No matter how strong Ryan was, he couldn't complete the "turn + take off" action in an instant.

It is indeed impossible. It is difficult to defend one against two. There are often only a few examples in the NBA of players who play too much in the frontcourt and fail to win.

But instead of turning around and then taking off, Ryan jumped up first and then turned around in the air!

After Ryan jumped up, he turned 180° in the air, from facing away from Wade to facing Wade, and completed the block in the air!

Wade looked at the basketball knocked down by Ryan, and his soul seemed to have been sucked out of him.

Woznirmaline, can you still risk me?

Don't talk about Wade, even the Nuggets players think it's abnormal!

A 180° turn in the air to dunk is commonplace, but a 180° turn in the air to block a shot is a bit outrageous!

Is this an action that humans can accomplish?

The basketball was slapped out of bounds, the referee's whistle sounded, and the Heat had the ball.

The substitute players on both sides were stunned when they saw the basketball rolling out of bounds.

That ball just now, no matter who was defending, Wade could definitely score 2 points.

But Ryan was stunned and gave Wade a bloodbath when he could no longer complete the defense!

As the basketball went out of bounds, the game also entered the dead ball stage. After the dead ball, all substitute players from both sides came on the field, and Wade's suffering journey finally officially ended.

Although I really don't want to accept it, it has become a fact that Ryan kept Wade clean at halftime!

Wade, who was still high-spirited in the first half, could only walk off the court with his head lowered.

Looking at The Flash walking off the field dejected, Reggie Miller only felt sympathy.

He approached the microphone and said a few words:

"To be honest, Wade is already strong enough as a third-year player.

If other teams enter the finals, then the Heat really have a chance of winning, and Wade's performance will definitely be quite outstanding.

This should have been the beginning of Wade's career.

It's a pity that Wade's opponent is Ryan!

But there is no way, this is the cruelty of competitive sports.

In Jordan's era, there were also many stars who deserved a championship.

But in the end, they can only live in the shadow of Jordan! "

At this point, Miller couldn't help clenching his fists.

That bastard Jordan! That time in 1998, he almost overthrew Jordan!

In the tiebreaker of the 1998 Eastern Conference Finals, Reggie Miller was obviously playing smoothly, but in the fourth quarter Jordan bit Miller viciously like a vicious wolf, making it difficult for him to catch the ball. In the end, Miller only took one shot in the entire fourth quarter, and this shot was a miss.

And what about Jordan? Although he only had 28 points in the game, 9 of them came in the fourth quarter. And you know, the Bulls team only scored 19 points in the fourth quarter!

So looking at Wade walking off the court, Miller understood his mood very well!

There is nothing you can do against this guy who is destined to dominate the era!

Therefore, Miller finally concluded:

"Heat fans shouldn't be surprised, and fans of other teams shouldn't be surprised.

In the next few years, things like this will become the norm.

You must admit that a new era is about to begin! "
