The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Before seeing the bet between Barkley and O'Neal, James' entire face has become extremely ugly.

Barkley, this guy, is actually talking about things in 07!

After watching it, James found that Wade had already stood behind him at some point.

"This is a good thing." Looking at James' ugly face, Wade said with a smile.

"Barkley loses every bet, and we'll win tonight's game," Wade continued.

After listening to what Wade said, James felt a little better.

Barkley is sure to lose every gamble, and he will definitely give his best tonight.

Not only because the team must win the game tonight, but also to shut up all these guys who mentioned the past in 07!

The next night, the Spurs-Heat Finals was played at the Heat's home stadium, American Airlines Arena.

The attendance was overwhelming, and like the beach in Miami, you could feel the enthusiasm from the audience.

O'Neal is right, the home atmosphere here is among the best in the league.

Especially after James and Bosh joined, the ball market has been second only to the two big monsters of the Knicks and the Lakers.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of both sides appeared one after another.

On the Spurs side, Popovich still arranged for Leonard, who performed well in the previous game, to start.

However, on the Heat side, Spoelstra switched back to the starting lineup for Game [-], allowing Bosh to serve as the starting five.

The two coaches had some deviations in the formation for the first time.

Bosh returned to the home court with some excitement, jumped and won Duncan, and won the opportunity for the Heat to take the lead in attacking.

James went to the frontcourt and went straight to the high post, reaching out to Chalmers for the ball.

Chalmers puts the ball in and James hits Diaw directly.

Dior is now a flexible and fat man, but his weight is actually lighter than James, and it is also very difficult to push up.

After a vigorous confrontation, James suddenly turned around and threw away Dior, went to the basket and scored a one-handed dunk.

The scene burst into cheers from the fans.

This game was exclusively broadcast on ESPN, and both Breen and Miller couldn't help being amazed when they saw the opening scene.

"I think the Charles-Shaq bet irritated LeBron," Miller said.

"I heard that before the game, a reporter talked about what happened in 07, maybe that's the reason." Brin has more information.

But whatever the reason, James looked a little different tonight than he has in the past few games!

The Spurs' offense, Duncan continued to hit Bosh with his back, and Bosh tried his best to go up this time, but Duncan's shot failed to score.

After being blasted by Duncan for two consecutive games, the "Dragon King" finally showed signs of recovery.

James went to the frontcourt and continued to play back, but Diaw chose to go forward.

James couldn't catch the ball at a high position and went directly outside the three-point line.

When he got the ball, he directly switched from posting to attacking with the ball.

One crotch in place, followed by a sudden acceleration.

Dior judged it, but was knocked away by James directly after the confrontation.

After James started, he was like a tank with a full throttle, and no one could stop him at all.

"boom!"

James rushed inside and dunked again with both hands.

James started the game with two consecutive dunks and scored 4 points in a row!

"Don't make him speed up!"

Popovich shouted dissatisfiedly from the sidelines at this time.

It's too easy for Diaw to get James up to speed, and the first step to defend against James is critical.

Duncan's support from the free throw line, Parker's chance to catch the ball and layup.

"boom!"

James assisted in the defense and directly chased and blocked the block!

His presence on both offense and defense tonight is overwhelming!

The Heat played a defensive counterattack directly, and Wade advanced with the ball.

The Spurs retreated quickly on this ball.

Wade had no chance, but he found James the next second he stopped the ball and hit the ball directly.

After receiving the ball, James accelerated and scored against Duncan's layup.

6 is better than 0!

Post up, with the ball, without the ball...

James fired all his firepower, relying on his own strength, let the Heat sweep away the haze of the first two games, and helped the team take the lead at the beginning!

There were whistles and cheers at the scene.

This is the beloved James, No. 1 in the league in Riley's mouth!

Riley was also on the scene at this time, and seeing James' performance like this was unprecedentedly gratifying.

The real No.1 is to break out in adversity in order to be worthy of that title.

Popovich got up, called Green up, and asked him to play to replace Diaw.

Dior was too slow to keep up with James' first step.

Duncan beat Bosh in the frontcourt and caused a foul by the latter's thugs, and finally had a chance to score points for the Spurs.

Spoelstra is relatively calm on the sidelines at this time. If James opens up, such a score can be given to the Spurs.

Duncan made his first free throw.

Green comes on for Diaw.

Leonard swung to the fourth position, which is also the main purpose of Popovich's substitution.

Although Leonard is not as good as Diaw in weight confrontation, he does a better job of restricting James from starting and defending against the ball.

The last game is a good example.

Duncan also made his second free throw.

The Spurs trailed 2-6.

The Heat advanced to the frontcourt with the ball.

James saw his defender become Leonard.

He didn't give up the offense like in the previous game, but asked for the ball directly, and then chose to attack Leonard with the ball.

With the experience of the last game, he obviously paid attention to the position of Leonard's arm when he started, and after the start, he got into the confrontation.

Leonard saw the opportunity to steal, but his body was forcibly knocked away by James.

James' first few shots were hot, and Leonard was useless!

James went to the inside again, and Duncan made up the defense at this time.

Although Leonard didn't defend, he still put pressure on James. James' speed was not fully up for this ball.

After Duncan defended the past, he forced James to stop the ball.

But James immediately stepped on the spot and took three small steps, and scored against Duncan with a tough shot.

The scene cheered again.

James arranged the Heat's first 8 points!

"Charles is really toxic, he loses every bet!"

Miller couldn't help complaining at this time.

Brin also laughed from the sidelines.

Speaking of which he has known Barkley for so many years, Barkley really hasn't won a few times.

James was unbeatable throughout the first half, scoring 25 points in the half to help the Heat build a 60-point lead 47-13.

Tonight's James went completely berserk.

Chapter 279 Create a Sense of Presence (2/5)

13 points behind at halftime, still in the Heat's away game, this is obviously not good news.

"Tim, attack the basket more, Manu, you start in the second half, break more."

Popovich is someone who has seen big scenes. Although he was behind, he did not lose his footing.

Tang Tian is also listening seriously now.

James played very vigorously in the half, maybe he will be like this throughout the game, but the inside is still the weakness of the Heat.

Popovich made the right choice.

"Don't be afraid of losing. Losing or winning is acceptable tonight, but you must show your presence."

Before departure, Popovich gave the Spurs players a rare refill of chicken soup.

As a master of chicken soup, Tang Tian felt that Popovich's words were low in motivation, but they were also very practical.

It's impossible for them not to let the Heat win a game, but no matter whether they win or lose, they must play a sense of presence!

Back in the second half, the Heat are still in that lineup.

But the Spurs have changed to a brand new starting lineup.

Diaw did not appear in the starting lineup, but Ginobili replaced him instead of Green.

This is the first time Popovich has put out such a lineup.

"The Spurs are actively seeking change." Breen said after seeing the Spurs' starting lineup for the second half.

"They need to change. If they continue to play like this in the first half, they have a very small chance of winning tonight." Miller opened his mouth and analyzed.

"Do you think this is useful?" Brin asked along the way.

Miller thought for a moment and shook his head.

The new lineup of the Spurs is obviously aimed at improving the offense, but James is in such a good state tonight, if he fights the offense, the Heat are worth it.

And even if the Spurs tried their best to get the score back in this quarter, their physical strength declined in the fourth quarter, and they still lost in the end.

Popovich obviously knew this too, and his expression was more serious.

But just like what he said during the halftime break, since they have already played like this, there is still a chance to fight hard now. If they play step by step, they really have no chance in the fourth quarter.

In Popovich's words, he has played badly for Duncan once in his life, and he will not admit defeat easily.

Back in the second half, the Spurs took the lead.

In the TD.step hammer tactic in the frontcourt, Ginobili catches the ball and shakes Wade away, breaks through in a snake shape and kills to the inside and gives it to Duncan.

After Duncan received the ball, he hit the high board.

The Spurs took the lead in scoring in the second half.

Ginobili's breakthrough was a little more agile than Parker's, which also made the Heat more unpredictable.

But looking back, James returned the favor with a four-step layup with small steps.

Still an 13 point difference.

Just like Miller's analysis, James is in such a good state tonight that the Spurs don't have much advantage in fighting against each other.

Manu Ginobili made a strong frontcourt rush to the basket and gave it to Parker. Parker took the ball and swayed Chalmers to continue to the basket.
