Chapter 116: Ryan, the NBA No. 1 pick in 2003 and the chosen one, is now a champion.
David Stern is extremely happy, because after this year's finals finally stopped being Spurs vs. Pistons, the ratings finally didn't crash again.
Sure enough, although people say they like tradition and conservatism, people actually prefer to be more unrestrained.
The conservative defensive battle between the Pistons and Spurs in the past was indeed too dull.
The offensive and defensive game between the Nuggets and Heat finally brought redemption to the NBA Finals.
The ratings for the finals G5 were particularly high.
Because fans all over the world know that tonight may be a night to witness a miracle!
A third-year player from China is very likely to play his first Grand Slam season since Olajuwon tonight!
Heat fans feel that their team can create a miracle and become the first team in NBA history to complete a comeback after falling behind 1-3 in the finals.
They all knew that Ryan, who had been given intravenous drips twice at press conferences, was physically exhausted.
Ryan defended Wade so miserably in every game and blocked Wade so many times. These did not come out of thin air. Wade is not a fool who would take the initiative to bump into Ryan's gun.
In order to stop the lightning-fast Wade from catching the ball, Ryan needed to go around screens and chase countless times.
In order to press Wade with the ball, Ryan must take the initiative to confront and collide at all times, and must keep his feet moving at all times.
The Heat made a mistake and Ryan had to quickly run the fast break. After running the fast break, he had to continue to press Wade.
When attacking in position, Ryan needs a lot of movement without the ball in order to get a chance to shoot steadily.
Just thinking about what Ryan has done in the past four games makes Miami fans feel so tired!
Even at the press conference after G4, Bird brought out a bunch of MVP trophies and said something very bluffing.
But the mentality of Miami fans is as Riley said later when he counterattacked:
"Larry doesn't need to show off those MVP trophies to scare people, because he won the MVP three times, but only once won the championship in the same season he won the MVP."
Riley's implication: "MVP is not that scary at all!"
O'Neal is rarely serious: "I will fight tooth and nail in the fifth game."
Heat fans still have hopes for a comeback!
The battle for the championship is never easy no matter who it is.
After all, even by 2023, there will only be a total of 9 finals sweeps in NBA history. And only one player can be swept twice in the finals.
But yes, it is known that Jordan has a bald head. How can he be called GOAT without shaving his head?
In short, most of the time, the finals are fierce battles.
In G5, everyone believes that the game will be very exciting.
On the Nuggets side, it's like the opponent has already squatted down and is holding the opponent's face with his hands. What are you waiting for?
On the Heat's side, as long as they win G5, they have the opportunity to create a miracle, so naturally they won't let it go easily.
Domestically, this game has attracted even more attention.
Many Chinese fans didn't even sleep last night and stayed up until the morning waiting for the game to start.
Don't talk about competing for the championship with Chinese players as the core. In the original history, even if an NBA team had Chinese players as the main rotation to play in the finals, the ratings would directly explode.
Although Daba and Dasheng also won championship rings in the original history, they were not even considered as the main rotation in the championship team, so they were tepid in the country.
And Ryan, as the star player, has a chance to win the championship today, so it's strange that he doesn't get much attention.
CCTV started live broadcast today two hours before the start of the game.
Director Zhang and Yu Jia were also sent directly to the scene in Miami and went to the locker room in advance to interview Ryan.
When the CCTV reporter interviewed Ryan, Ryan had just arrived in the locker room and had not had time to change clothes.
In front of the camera, Ryan first admitted: "I am indeed very tired now. The first four games have consumed too much of my energy and physical fitness."
But soon, he relaxed and laughed again:
"But today we have a new strategy to deal with the Heat. We will definitely win the championship trophy in Miami!"
Although Ryan looked confident, the Chinese fans were still nervous as hell.
Chinese fans also know ESPN’s “five-game survival theory.”
They are really afraid that if they fail to win the fifth game, the situation in the finals will be completely reversed.
After the interview, Ryan turned his head and found that everyone on the team had ran to another corner of the locker room, as if they were discussing something behind Ryan's back.
Ryan looked at everyone in confusion: "What are you doing? Are you going to drive the Impart without me? Let me tell you, I can let you guys order other things, but this type of Impart is non-negotiable!"
Birdman smiled: "Brother, you are really good at joking. Our team is full of active and good young people who have loyalty to the country tattooed on their bodies. How can we participate in any Impart?"
"Then what are you muttering about?"
Faced with Ryan's questioning, the double-sword turkey deliberately changed the topic: "Everyone go to your positions and get ready! Today, there is absolutely no room for mistakes!"
Everyone immediately dispersed, Ryan shook his head and did not continue to delve deeper.
He didn't want to be distracted by anything tonight.
After a long waiting time, the game was about to start at 8 a.m. in China.
When players from both sides stood in the center circle, almost all Chinese fans were extremely nervous.
The camera gave Ryan a close-up, and he was undoubtedly the key figure in determining the outcome of this game.
Mike Breen also said bluntly: "Whether the Nuggets can win the championship depends on whether Ryan can continue his previous form today!"
Yu Jia, who was in the commentary box, felt that her whole body was shaking uncontrollably.
This is a day when Chinese basketball players have the opportunity to make history!
He tried hard to adjust his emotions so that his voice would not tremble when he spoke:
"Hello, Zhuanger TV, Zhuanger TV viewers, welcome to the live broadcast of Game 5 of the 2006 NBA Finals.
Today’s game will be narrated by Director Zhang and I!
Now both sides jump the ball and the game begins! The Heat get the ball first! "
Hundreds of millions of Chinese fans clenched their fists at this time, looking forward to Ryan continuing to ravage Wade.
But in the first round today, all the fans were frightened.
Because as soon as the Nuggets came up, they switched to using AK47 to defend Wade!
Yu Jia's mouth opened wide. Although Bird's strategy in previous games was to ask Ryan to press hard in the third quarter.
It goes without saying that in the first half, even if Ryan didn't press the defense, he would still be facing off against Wade.
As a result, today, the Nuggets directly replaced Kirilenko to defend Wade. This made people wonder if there was something wrong with Ryan's physical fitness!
"Bird chose to use AK to defend Wade at the beginning of today's game, which is quite a surprising strategy.
Perhaps it was due to Ryan's physical considerations that Bird had to do that! "
After Yu Jia finished speaking, Wade directly played a pick-and-roll with Haslem. Seeing that it was not Ryan who was defending him, Wade would naturally not be polite.
Although Kirilenko is tall and has long arms, he is not as fast as Ryan. When defending alone, he relies more on models rather than steps.
So Kirilenko couldn't directly kill Wade like Ryan did.
Wade used the screen to break into the penalty area and used a tomahawk dunk to give the Heat the lead!
In the American Airlines Center, the cheers of the fans seemed to shake the entire stadium.
What makes them happy is not that Wade successfully scored, but that the Nuggets chose to protect Ryan!
This is enough to show that Ryan can no longer hold on!
This guy is going to be totally screwed in Game 5!
Riley smiled slightly. He had already said that MVP is not that scary!
But not long after the Heat fans were happy, they were immediately hit in the face.
And the person who beat them was none other than Ryan!
Although Ryan didn't personally defend Wade on the defensive end just now, on the offensive end, he played quite actively.
In this attack, after Ryan received the ball in the middle distance on the right, he faked a shot to shake Walker's center of gravity, and then immediately accelerated to break through along the baseline.
Yes, the Heat have been using Walker to deal with Len on the defensive end since G2.
Because if Wade has to defend Ryan and break the press, his physical fitness will really be too much.
Of course, the Heat don't expect Walker to be able to defend Ryan one-on-one. They defend Ryan by relying on overall defense. No, after Ryan broke through Walker, O'Neal immediately helped defend the basket.
This may be the season in which O'Neal has had the most correct defensive attitude in his career so far.
With O'Neal's help, Ryan didn't take off and dunk directly. Instead, he ran right under the basket before jumping up. He turned 180 degrees in the air to avoid the block, and performed a moon-gazing reverse dunk!
As soon as he came up, Ryan used a slam dunk contest-like action to score the first point of the day!
Heat fans curled their lips, what the hell is going on?
You have to say that Ryan has plenty of physical strength, but Bird didn't let him guard Wade today.
You have to say that Ryan is lacking in physical fitness. He was able to complete that kind of difficult dunk just now.
Is Ryan okay or not?
One round later, the Nuggets were still using AK47 to defend Wade. Wade continued to use the screen to make a jump shot from the mid-range position.
However, the AK47 is not a decoration after all. Although the defensive effect is not as good as Ryan, the Russian is this year's first defensive player after all!
This year, AK47 was selected to the All-Defensive First Team for the first time in his career, which is enough to show how good his defense is.
If you ask AK to directly lock Wade like Ryan, he may not be able to do it.
But to keep Wade from going crazy, AK can still do it.
Under the interference of Kirilenko's long arm, Wade's mid-range shot came out of the frame.
Weber competed with O'Neal for rebounds in the penalty area. The Sharks were really active today. He said before the game that "I will fight my best in Game 5" was not just a boast.
I saw the already old O'Neal leaping up hard and suppressing Weber with his whole body. He was determined to win this rebound.
but!
After all, Shark is not at his peak!
Although O'Neal suppressed Weber, his jump height was not high enough for him to directly grab the basketball.
In the end, although O'Neal touched the ball first, he only shot the ball out of the boundary.
The Nuggets continued to get the ball without any danger!
Heat fans curled their lips. Wade faced the AK47, and he couldn't just kill him randomly. But it doesn’t matter, we can just guard against one next.
Afterwards, Weber prepared to serve a sideline ball from the backcourt.
Although the game has just begun, this sideline ball cannot determine the outcome. But the Heat were already using a pressing method to prevent the Nuggets' ball at this time.
White Chocolate stared directly at Miller in the backcourt, interfering with his ability to catch the ball.
Antoine Walker was also pushing Kirilenko and cutting off Weber's passing route.
Riley's strategy today is to interfere with every inbounds serve of the Nuggets as much as possible. If he can make one more mistake, it will give the Heat a chance to survive.
A small sideline ball is enough to change the history of basketball!
Facing the actively defensive White Chocolate and Walker, after Weber took the basketball from the referee, he
He just threw it casually with one hand and threw the ball directly to the frontcourt with great force! At the same time, Ryan in the frontcourt cut in along the baseline. Before the Heat players could react, he directly received Weber's pass that ran across the court and scored with an alley-oop dunk!
Riley's mouth dropped open as the rim made a loud bang. Is this okay?
Webber, who has had enough days, can he serve the ball from the sideline like this? He sent an alley-oop directly from the backcourt. What the hell? Re-send it!
Indeed, no one thought that Webber would pass the ball directly from the backcourt. After all, this choice was too bold.
No one thought that such an unreasonable choice actually allowed the Nuggets to win!
4 to 2, the Nuggets lead the Heat in the game again!
Wade felt something was wrong. At the beginning of today's game, Ryan's desire to attack seemed stronger than before.
In the previous four games, Ryan scored 31 points, 24 points, 23 points and 30 points respectively.
Neither is particularly high.
Because Ryan has to focus more on the defensive end.
But in the first two goals today, Ryan played very actively.
What on earth is Ryan going to do today?
I have to say that Wade's reaction was indeed a bit slow.
After all, it wasn't until many years after he retired, when James neither attended his jersey retirement ceremony nor his Hall of Fame ceremony, that he looked back and realized that he seemed to have been cheated.
Although the physical speed is as fast as lightning, the brain's reaction is a little slower, and the Nugget's intention has not been seen yet.
Even Yu Jia reacted. During the pre-match interview, Ryan said that he had specially prepared a new strategy for today.
So Yu Jia guessed that Bird might let Ryan and Wade compete today!
Well, actually Yu Jia also guessed wrong. Bird's real intention was to let Ryan take the lead in the first half, and then let Ryan take down Wade in the second half!
Again, letting Kirilenko defend Wade will not be as effective as Ryan, but at least it won't make Wade go crazy.
But on the Heat's side, Walker can't restrict Ryan!
In terms of offensive efficiency, Ryan's offensive efficiency when facing Walker is definitely higher than Wade's offensive efficiency when facing AK47!
So in the first half, Bird simply asked Ryan to focus all his energy on the offensive end, trying to find a way to open up some points in the first half.
In the second half, Ryan defended with all his strength and did not give the Heat a chance to chase points!
In this way, Ryan can play more relaxedly in the first half while also taking care of the offense.
In the second half, he was not unable to suppress Wade due to physical collapse.
Of course, the Heat also have a way to break the game, which is to use Wade to defend Ryan in the first half. Wade is the only person in the Heat who can limit Ryan.
But Bird bet that Pat Riley wouldn't dare to do that.
If Wade is allowed to defend Ryan and consume his energy, then Wade will have no chance of breaking through Ryan's defense in the second half!
Today, Bird is going to show the world what it means to be offensive and defensive, and what it means to be MVP!
The game continued. This time Wade used a high-speed change of direction to pass Kirilenko, got inside and relied on Weber to score.
But Big Bird isn't worried at all. He doesn't want to lock Wade down, as long as Wade's offensive efficiency is not as good as Ryan's!
Sure enough, after one round, Ryan took advantage of the screen and fired from outside the three-point line. He scored 7 points in a row on 3-of-3 starts!
The score was 7-4, and the shooting percentage was 2-for-3 and 3-for-3.
Although there is not much difference between Ryan and Wade now, in terms of efficiency, the longer the game lasts, the easier it is to see the gap!
In the subsequent games, Ryan and Wade both had wonderful scoring performances.
Wade finally showed off his speed that seemed to crush him into a blade.
Ryan continued to torture Walker with his off-ball offense.
From a visual point of view, the confrontation between the two superstars from the 2003 class was quite exciting, with no distinction between them.
Mike Breen even commented: "The 2003 class has formed a situation of two superpowers and many strong players!"
Cleveland fans: The two Super Leagues must refer to Ryan and Wuhuang.
After Ryan went all out to attack, his efficiency was ridiculously high.
In the first quarter, Ryan scored 14 points on 6 of 7 shots.
So far in the second quarter, Ryan is 5-for-6 from the field.
40 seconds before the end of the second quarter, Wade made a difficult pull-up layup and scored the ball, making Heat fans cheer.
The last attack of the half will be ended by the Nuggets. Ryan still followed the previous plan, running without the ball and coming out to catch and shoot from his back pocket.
This time, Antoine Walker had tried his best to get around the screen and throw himself out to interfere with Ryan.
Visually, he did cause some interference to Ryan.
Heat fans clenched their fists. Ryan must have missed this shot, right?
But unfortunately, the basketball went directly into the net!
Walker's interference just now seemed to be very timely. In fact, with the speed of Ryan's shot, Antoine Walker actually blocked the shot after Ryan had already taken the shot!
Therefore, seeing many things may not necessarily be believed. Only those who have tried it personally know what it feels like!
After scoring this goal, Ryan also shot 6 of 7 in the second quarter. Throughout the first half, Ryan shot 12 of 14, with a shooting rate of 85.7%!
30 minutes at halftime!
After Ryan let go of the attack today, he scored more points in half the game than in the entire game before!
And this goal also gave the Nuggets an 11-point halftime lead!
The Heat will enter the second half decisive battle with a double-digit disadvantage!
Heat fans couldn't believe it. Wade's 20-point performance in the half was already outstanding enough. It was the most exciting performance except for the 24-point half in G1.
As a result, he scored 20 points at halftime today but was still suppressed by Ryan! We still have to enter the second half with such a big disadvantage!
Why do you always have to be beaten by Ryan?
Ryan's efficiency of missing one shot per quarter is simply terrifying!
To be honest, Ryan's condition also exceeded Bird's expectations.
He thought that if Ryan could concentrate on attacking, Ryan might be extremely efficient. He also thought that Ryan could score extremely high scores in the half.
But I just never thought that Ryan could combine high efficiency and high scoring!
Ryan deserves to be the leader of the team. In the finals, when the team needed him the most, he was duty-bound and competed with the opponent's number one star without falling behind! This is the mark of a qualified leader!
Terry from the Mavericks in the 2011 Finals is a counter-example. As a team giant, his data is almost the same as the second-best player on the opposite team!
In the end, it was the soft guy Nowitzki who had to turn the tide.
Winning championships for this kind of leader is an insult to the word leader!
In any case, the situation is indeed as Bird expected. Wade's offensive efficiency when facing AK is definitely not as high as Ryan's offensive efficiency when facing Walker!
So what if Wade scored 20 points at halftime with a 53% shooting rate? His team still had to enter the second half with a double-digit point difference!
Mike Brindu shook his head and sighed:
"Larry is right, G5 of the finals showed us what it means to be the strongest player this season!
Riley also said in a previous interview that MVP is not that scary.
But now, I dare say that the person I am most afraid of is exactly him! "
Yu Jia was also dancing with excitement:
"30 points at halftime! Ryan played one of the most classic halftime performances in the history of the NBA Finals!
In a last-ditch battle, facing the Eastern Conference champion who was eager to create a miracle, Ryan grabbed the throat of fate!
Tonight, we are very likely to witness the birth of the first Chinese player to lead his team to win the NBA championship as a core player! "
On the Heat side, Miami fans know very well that the team is already half dead.
But another ESPN commentator, Jeff Van Gundy, had a different opinion:
“Ryan’s performance in the first half was undoubtedly great, but an 11-point deficit was not fatal.
In the second half, the Heat still have a chance to chase points! "
This sentence has simply become the last comfort for Heat fans.
Yes, although the 11-point difference is not small, it is not fatal!
Ryan was amazing in the first half, why couldn't Wade be amazing in the second half?
Heat fans naively believed that Wade could lead the team in a point-chasing offensive in the second half.
Little did they know that what awaited them in the second half would be endless despair!
"Zhuanger TV, Zhuanger TV, welcome back to the second half of Game 5 of the 2006 NBA Finals!
In the first half of the game, Ryan, the most valuable player of the season, scored 30 points in the half! Let the Nuggets have already touched the O'Brien Gold Cup with one hand!
In the second half, can he continue his good form and attack with Wade?
etc!
Ryan is guarding Wade!
In the second half of the game, Ryan started to face off against Wade again!
Is he preparing to replicate his defense in the first four games? ? "
Yu Jia's roar excited the Chinese fans, but what happened at this time made the Heat fans heartbroken.
Ryan's defense of Wade is simply the biggest nightmare for Heat fans in this entire series!
Although the second half had just begun, they had a feeling that the game was over.
At halftime, Heat fans were still dreaming that Wade would turn the tide in the second half and reverse the score.
But after Ryan faced off with Wade again, the possibility of Wade scoring crazy points was close to 0!
Wade also gritted his teeth. During the halftime break, he told himself over and over again that he must score crazy points in the second half to recover the point difference.
It took a lot of effort to arouse my emotions, but as a result, this
I just said "I have to kill you tonight", but as soon as the main scene started I was so weak that I couldn't get into it!
The moment he saw Ryan, Wade really felt weak.
In the past four games, Ryan has definitely cast a psychological shadow on Wade.
Sure enough, as soon as Wade approached half court, he was directly pressed by Ryan.
Heat fans are about to cry, this feeling of despair is still so familiar!
Even though Ryan scored 30 points in the first half, because he was extremely efficient, he did not attack very hard, and 14 shots was not too exaggerated.
In addition, there was no pressure on the defensive end in the first half, so Ryan now has plenty of physical energy to press Wade!
Wade couldn't stand up again, and the Heat's offense once again became a pool of stagnant water.
In the first attack of the second half, Wade's strong mid-range shot was blocked by Ryan's interference!
In fact, Ryan admitted that ESPN's prediction was correct.
If the Heat cannot be defeated today, Ryan will no longer be able to hold down Wade in G6 and G7.
Today, Bird changed his tactics so that Ryan could continue to contain Wade in the second half.
If Ryan had to guard Wade in the first half like in previous games, Ryan would definitely be overwhelmed by the second half today.
But fortunately, now, Ryan is confident that he will never let the finals survive G5!
After the Nuggets attacked, Ryan's offensive enthusiasm dropped a lot.
In the second half, Ryan will defend as usual, so he won't take as many shots as he did in the first half.
Weber's mid-range shot failed to hit in this attack, but the Heat knew very well that they had no chance of narrowing the point difference!
Now even if Ryan doesn't score, Wade can't even think about scoring!
"Wade made a mistake! Under Ryan's pressure and defense, his hasty pass was intercepted by Kirilenko!
The Nuggets' forward defense is so strong!
The 11-point gap may not seem big, but if Ryan faces Wade again, the Heat will have no chance of catching up! "
When Mike Breen was talking, Kirilenko had already connected with Miller and launched a counterattack.
The point difference becomes 13 points, and the Nuggets are getting closer and closer to victory!
Heat fans all looked sad. How can Ryan's defense be cracked?
Is it really the only way to confuse Ryan by asking Wade to use a lob shot?
In the second half of G5, Wade was not directly blocked by Ryan like G1.
But Wade's scoring efficiency is indeed too low.
James looked at Wade's performance and felt that Wade was a waste of resources.
This is the finals, man.
You can't just waste the opportunity of the finals.
Who the hell enters the finals just to get beaten?
If it were me who made it to the finals, I wouldn't be so embarrassed by Gentleman Sweep!
If it had been me who made it to the finals, I wouldn't have been so defensive in the second half!
If I had known this, you might as well have let me pass! If I make it to the finals, at least I know how to resist!
After the third quarter, the Heat fell behind by 18 points as expected.
Ryan only scored 5 points and took 4 shots in the third quarter. On the offensive end, both efficiency and production were not as high as they were in the first half.
But relying on defense, Ryan can prevent the Heat from catching up with the score!
Not only could they not catch up, the score had even been widened!
After the start of the fourth quarter, White Chocolate first scored a 3-pointer against Miller.
Subsequently, O'Neal got up under the basket and caused Weber to foul and hit an extra free throw.
This wave of 6 points allowed the Heat to narrow the point difference to 12 points.
However, this was the Heat's final struggle.
After one round, Kirilenko cut in and scored a dunk, with a 14-point difference.
In the next attack, Webber feinted under the basket to pick up Haslem, then turned around and scored with a hook, putting on a beautiful low-post singles performance!
Although Weber has been reduced to a role player this season, he is mainly responsible for open mid-range shooting and passing.
But this does not mean that his skills at the basket are completely useless.
Occasionally, it can still produce results!
The score difference is back to 16 points, and the Heat have fallen into hell step by step!
With Wade continuing to be pressed, the Heat could only hand the ball to Shark, hoping that he could perform like he did at 2+1.
However, the Nuggets will not just watch the shark open its mouth and remain indifferent.
This time, Webber fouled O'Neal in advance the moment the Shark caught the ball and sent him to the free throw line.
O'Neal, who hit extra free throws before, missed both free throws this time!
After the second penalty was ejected, Shark covered his head with his hands in frustration.
At this time, how much he missed that bastard who could still hit difficult shots despite being pressed!
Wade is more than charming, but not very virtuous!
O'Neal is simply crazy. A few years ago, it would have been fine if he lost the championship against that guy Duncan.
But now? He was actually going to lose the championship because of a kid from the 2003 draft!
The world is changing too fast!
O'Neal missed two free throws. After the Nuggets counterattacked, Ryan directly challenged Haslem and succeeded in a dunk.
Not only did he complete the dunk, he also caused Haslem to foul!
Ryan returned the favor to the Heat at the free throw line. After 2+1, the point difference had changed to 19 points!
When they caught up to 12 points, the Heat originally saw a glimmer of hope.
but now.
At this point, the fourth quarter is almost halfway through. If the Nuggets are allowed to widen the point difference to 20 points, the game will basically end early!
As a result, all fans around the world are paying attention to the next attack and defense.
The result of this attack and defense was enough for both sides to decide the winner!
Wade is under great pressure, but at this time he knows he must stand up, no matter how much pressure he puts on!
Of course, he knew that he was likely to be guarded by Ryan again, and the attack was likely to fail. And if such an important attack fails, he will definitely be criticized by the media.
But as the leader of this team, even if he fails, even if he is scolded by fans and the media, he must take responsibility.
It’s impossible to leave this critical round to White Chocolate or Antoine Walker because of fear of taking responsibility, right?
Dwayne Wade, this guy who was beaten badly but still looked like a man, slowly approached the half court.
He knew that this was a life and death showdown between him and Ryan!
There was no breathing room, Wade had just crossed the midfield line, and the No. 0 who once defeated the Dream Team with him immediately posted.
Wade could even feel the thick breath coming out of Ryan's nose.
He carried Ryan's pressing with his back, and then turned to his right.
Ryan bites the pace, moving sideways while pressing hard. It seems that Wade's offense will be like countless times before, becoming unable to move under Ryan's pressing.
But just as Ryan moved his center of gravity to block Wade's back turn, Wade suddenly turned in the other direction, shook Ryan away, and successfully broke through!
Wade didn't just turn his back, but made a fake half-turn!
This is Wade's rare and hearty breakthrough in this series!
All Heat fans stood up, hoping that the Flash's raid could bring another wave of blood to the team.
G5, as long as it can win G5, the team can create miracles!
If possible, Heat fans can just kneel down to Wade, as long as he can lead the team to win G5!
Wade advanced at high speed, but cursed secretly in his heart.
He could feel that his speed was not fully utilized.
The intense feeling of fatigue prevented him from running at top speed.
However, Wade feels that such speed should be enough to tear apart the defense.
After stepping into the three-second zone, Wade kicked the ground hard and sent his whole body into the air.
Weber was stuck by O'Neal, and Nene was too late to rush back to the penalty area. Wade's road to attacking the frame is unimpeded!
Wade grabbed the basketball with five fingers and swung it towards the basket with all his strength, but halfway through the swoop, Wade felt another force acting on the ball.
Although this force did not blow the ball directly, it still made the basketball escape from the control of Wade's five fingers!
In the air, the basketball was released. Wade still hit the basket hard, but after the ball was released, it hit the neck of the basket!
"Ryan chased and blocked Wade! Although it was a very reluctant block, Ryan still did it!
He did not let Wade score directly. Even though Wade had successfully broken through, Ryan continued to suppress Wade! "
In Wade's mind, there were tens of millions of alpacas rushing past, and his speed was just a little slower than usual, just a little bit!
Actually, just because of this small gap, Ryan caught up with him!
In fact, Ryan just barely touched the ball with his fingertips from the side. No matter how fast Wade threw it, Ryan would not be able to touch the ball.
But the outcome of the game is sometimes determined by this tiny difference!
After Ryan reluctantly chased Wade, due to inertia, he directly rushed out of the baseline when he landed.
And because the basketball did not fly directly and hit the basket, the Heat still had a chance to grab rebounds for a second offense.
Relying on his terrifying bounce speed, Wade jumped high and caught the rebound in front of the three inside players Haslem, O'Neal and Webber.
Immediately afterwards, Wade took off for the third time in a row, trying to take off on the spot and dunk directly!
The next second, the fans only heard a loud "bang".
The Heat's score remained unchanged, and Wade was not hanging on the basket.
Just now, when Wade jumped up to prepare for a second attack dunk, Ryan, who had already flown out of the baseline, rushed back to the penalty area in time, blocked Wade for the second time in a row, and treated Wade to a meal!
These two blocks completely ended the suspense of the game!
Heat fans are no longer surprised by Ryan's exaggerated blocking performance. They feel that they are used to being blocked in this series!
Wade looked at the basketball flying out, feeling no despair, no helplessness, no unwillingness.
Instead, I suddenly felt a sense of relief, and all the burdens on my body seemed to be lifted off instantly.
It's really relieved, because Wade knows that the 2006 Finals is over at this moment!
AK47 stretched out its long arm and grabbed the basketball that emerged from Ryan.
At the same time, Ryan was already running forward, hoping to use a counterattack to give the Heat the final blow.
AK47 didn't hesitate and directly hit the ball to Ryan.
If this goal can be scored and the point difference is increased to 20 points, everyone can celebrate the victory in advance!
Ryan continued to run forward after receiving the basketball, but he was not facing an empty basket. Antoine Walker had already started to retreat when Wade was blocked for the first time.
And he, the eternal No. 8 in the 1996 class, is the Heat's last hope in this game! At this time, only he has a chance to stop Ryan!
It is estimated that Antoine and Walker himself did not expect that one day he would play such an important role in the finals.
Ryan ran towards Walker, and Walker also moved forward to block Ryan.
Of course, Heat fans know how powerful Ryan's impact is.
They actually didn't expect Walker to intercept Ryan 100%, not even 50%.
But...at least give Ryan a taste of his power with a brutal foul, right?
Even if you lose, you must lose with a little bit of backbone! The Miami Heat have always been a tough team!
As expected, Ryan completely ignored Walker under the basket and jumped high to face him for a dunk.
Walker also jumped up, and then, I don't know if Ryan was too aggressive and scared Walker.
This forever No. 8 in the 1996 class made a move that may not happen again in NBA history.
He was not dunked directly by Ryan, nor did he throw Ryan to the ground with a vicious foul.
Instead, he curled up in the air, then covered his head with his hands to avoid Ryan!
There was no way, Walker was really scared at the time!
Imagine that a strong man weighing more than 100 kilograms is rushing towards you at full speed with an expression on his face that he wants to eat someone.
Damn, who can't hide like a reflex?
Walker: I just did something that all men in the world would do!
Riley covered his face, what the hell? You might as well just stop jumping!
Either foul, get dunked, or don't guard at all. Walker clearly has so many choices.
But he chose the most embarrassing way to play!
Under Walker's incredible reaction, Ryan successfully dunked!
At this point, Ryan officially scored his first 40-point game in the finals of his career today!
Moreover, the score difference was completely widened to more than 20 points!
At that moment, Yu Jia announced excitedly:
"The first team in NBA history to be led by a Chinese player and win the championship was born today!"
Ryan originally wanted to yell after landing, but when he saw poor Antoine Walker, he couldn't bear to yell.
What Antoine Walker did just now will undoubtedly go down in history and become one of the most classic scenes in the history of the Finals.
At this point, Riley paused the game.
The Heat's godfather knew everything was settled.
At this time, all the Nuggets players walked onto the court and ran to Ryan.
Ryan looked at everyone in confusion. As a result, they all saluted neatly to Ryan, then lowered their heads and shouted:
"Your Majesty the King!"
Ryan finally understood that these guys were secretly discussing this matter in the locker room before!
When Mike Brin saw this scene, he also laughed:
"Lion King and his heroic knights completely extinguished this wild fire!
Ladies and gentlemen, the 2003 NBA No. 1 pick, the chosen one, Ryan.
He's a champion! "
Riley looked at the Nuggets players celebrating on the court in advance, and looked at Ryan's performance of locking down Wade in the second half with 30 points in the first half, and sighed.
MVP is really hard to win!
