Chapter 136 Dunk! "The Flash" Gets Beaten Up Like a Horse!
"Beep!"
Coach Spoelstra called a timeout.
Three cappings.
They were all Wade's signature offensive move that got blocked... the elusive step.
This is a huge blow to Wade and the morale of the entire Heat team.
We must call a timeout.
Temporarily halt Su Hao's defensive aura, which was like that of a tyrant, looking down upon the world and destroying everything.
"What the hell?"
Wade frowned. "This shouldn't be happening. Why can't I break through Su Hao's defense?"
With my speed and explosiveness, most centers would be no match for me.
Su Hao's talent is certainly greater than that of ordinary centers.
But... I should be able to score normally, at least I shouldn't get blocked repeatedly, let alone get blocked while standing.
The essential.
He also rendered my proud "mystery step" ineffective. Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?
Is this the level of play a rookie can achieve?
Wade sat alone on the bench, looking bewildered.
"No no no."
Coach Spoelstra shook his head and comforted him, "Dwayne, don't be discouraged, and you don't need to be."
It was just a few rounds of attack.
You are not familiar with Su Hao's defensive habits, and you may be underestimating his defensive abilities as a rookie.
but.
You're the "Flash," after all! You scored a whopping 56 points in the last game, breaking your career scoring record and becoming only the second player this season to score 50 points.
You are the "second best shooting guard in the league".
Your attacks are unstoppable; you possess a kaleidoscope of offensive capabilities, and no one can truly limit you.
and so.
Believe in yourself, play with more patience, and you will definitely beat Su Hao and lead your team to victory.
"of course."
Wade nodded.
Despite his complaints, it doesn't mean he's afraid of Su Hao.
He is the second player this season to score 50 points, and he has just broken his own career scoring record.
What reason does Wade have to fear a rookie?!
Just do it and that's it.
End of the first quarter.
Although Su Hao blocked Wade's shots three times, including two spectacular standing blocks.
Heat 27:24 Clippers
But the Heat led by three points in the quarter.
Wade was repeatedly thwarted when he tried to break through Su Hao's defense.
However, his overall offensive efficiency is decent.
The key... on the defensive end, he used his strong defensive ability to effectively limit Curry's performance.
This meant that several times when Su Hao grabbed rebounds, the basketballs he passed out couldn't be converted into points in time.
but.
The Heat's interior defense was still very effective, but their overall offensive efficiency was also relatively low.
The score is still close, with only a three-point difference.
Next section.
First, they rotated as substitutes.
In four minutes, the Heat's bench players, despite their usual contributions, failed to help the team narrow the gap.
Just consider it a rest time for the starting lineup.
"Beep!"
Coach Dunleavy called a timeout.
Both teams' starting lineups have returned.
After Curry pushed the ball over, he set two consecutive screens before getting a three-point shot opportunity at the left 45-degree angle.
"Bang!"
Having not been able to shoot a three-pointer for quite some time, his touch wasn't good this time.
Blacksmithing.
rebound?!
Su Hao, positioned under the basket, leaped forward, getting ahead of Beasley and O'Neal, and took control of the sky with both hands.
then.
He grabbed the basketball first and, without even touching the ground, immediately opted for a putback dunk.
tough.
It doesn't make sense at all.
In the midst of a transition to offense.
Wade pushed the ball over, used a series of crossovers to find his rhythm, and the moment he got the ball in his right hand, he pushed off the ground and accelerated, rushing out like lightning.
Curry quickly followed.
"Stab!"
Wade suddenly stopped and pulled the basketball back between his legs, a signature move of his.
Curry lost his balance and tumbled down.
"Wow!"
Wade takes a jump shot.
That ball?!
"Bang!"
He missed.
Meanwhile, Su Hao once again single-handedly grabbed rebounds from Beasley and O'Neal, two of the team's top rim protectors.
Who will win?!
Su Hao still wins.
Su Hao once again made a strong defensive rebound, causing the Heat to lose their second-chance opportunity.
Wade is certainly strong.
But if he doesn't have enough opportunities to attack with the ball, that won't work either.
Compared to shooting, even mid-range shots, attacking the basket is Wade's more lethal weapon.
but.
He had been blocked by Su Hao repeatedly, and was somewhat intimidated. When Su Hao was under the basket, he tried to avoid going into the paint as much as possible.
The efficiency of mid-range shots from the outside is not high.
There were no offensive rebounds.
How can the team maintain their scoring momentum like this?!
"Beep!"
Seeing this, Coach Spoelstra decisively substituted small forward Quentin Richardson with backup center Udonis Haslem during a dead ball situation.
Thus.
The Heat have three big men on the court: Beasley, O'Neal, and Haslem.
These three players can combine for an average of 24 rebounds per game, while the team as a whole gets around 42 rebounds per game.
The three of them grabbed more than half of the rebounds; their rim protection is undeniable.
If two people can't beat Su Hao, can't three people do it?
As long as we can grab the rebound from Su Hao, as long as we can create more offensive opportunities for Wade.
Then.
He can then convert that into points, sustain the team's firepower, and help the team establish a scoring advantage.
The game continues.
Wade drove to the basket, drawing the defense, and then passed the ball back to Chalmers at the other end of the arc.
He raised his hand and made a three-pointer.
This ball?
"Bang!"
Missed.
"Backboard!!!"
Coach Spoelstra growled from the sidelines, his eyes brimming with confidence.
They firmly believe that their three interior players will be able to protect the rebounds well.
Under the basket.
Haslem pushed past David Lee, positioned himself, and Beasley and O'Neal engaged Su Hao in physical contact.
Three people surrounded and attacked.
It is imperative to restrict Su Hao's ability to protect the basket.
is that useful?
It was no use at all. Su Hao stood firmly under the basket, and no matter how much Beasley and O'Neal tried to push him, they couldn't budge him.
After seeing where the basketball was going to land, Su Hao could then carry O'Neal, causing O'Neal to slide backward uncontrollably as he exerted all his strength.
Nothing could stop Su Hao from advancing.
"Kick!"
Despite not being in a particularly good position to protect the rim, Su Hao still chose to jump, his long, outstretched arms firmly protecting the basket above the heads of the three players.
"None of the three big men are good enough?!"
Coach Spoelstra clutched his head, utterly stunned.
No.
It really doesn’t work.
As long as the basketball's landing point is within a controllable range.
It's absolutely impossible for the Heat's three big men to use their strength to block Su Hao and prevent him from jumping to protect the rim.
This means that... even if the Heat field their three big men in an attempt to give Wade more offensive opportunities on the perimeter.
But the results were still not good.
"Snapped!"
Su Hao secured the rebound once again.
The ball was passed to Curry for the drive, and Wade followed up, rushing to the right arc. After a fake shot, he suddenly accelerated, leaving Wade half a body length behind, and drove in.
But Wade is really fast.
He followed.
During his confrontation with Wade, Curry attempted a shot off the backboard, but it was somewhat disrupted and he missed.
Wade secured the rebound himself.
Seeing Chalmers rushing out, Wade prepared to pass the ball directly to him.
But at this moment.
Curry, also under the basket, transformed into the sixth man, sneakily knocking the basketball out of Wade's hands.
The upper limit of the free throw line.
Su Hao, who had followed up, received the ball just in time. This sudden interception caught everyone off guard.
"Whoosh!"
Su Hao, who had the ball, rushed in. No one followed. He stepped on the ground just inside the free throw line, grabbed the ball, and soared into the sky.
now.
There's only Wade under the basket!
He didn't have time to think; he quickly adjusted his defensive stance, trying to stop Su Hao!
