Chapter 480: James Appears in Miami (1/4!) )

The third game between the Thunder and Spurs started first.

The championship is on the verge of elimination after falling behind 0-2, and this game has also attracted much attention.

The match started with great antiquity, but after the start of the game, the process was beyond everyone's expectations.

When the Thunder arrived at home, they suddenly all transformed, Westbrook incarnated as a "turtle" and made various high-pressure defensive steals, Durant picked up the "Death Scythe" and shot the deadly knife, and Harden's breakthrough and Ibaka's block were also elusive.

The Spurs, played by the Thunder at home, were a big mess, and Popovich couldn't even call a couple of timeouts.

This is the characteristic of a young core team, and the state is very up and down by the environment.

In the end, the Thunder defeated the Spurs 101-81 at home to tie the series at 1-2.

Westbrook had 12 points, 7 boards, 9 assists and 5 steals, Durant had 25 points and 5 boards, Harden had 15 points and 5 assists, and Ibaka had 12 points, 7 boards and 3 blocks.

On the Spurs' side, Parker, who scored 34 points in the last game, fell behind Westbrook in this game, only got 9 points and 5 assists, Duncan only made 5 of 15 shots, only got 12 points and 8 boards, and the "demon knife" Ginobili shot 1 of 7, and he was completely lost.

"GDP" seems to grow old overnight.

The Thunder team completely crushed the Spurs with talent, and the old man was stunned that there was no way at all.

The result of the third game of the Western Conference finals was a big surprise, but it also made fans have more expectations.

The Heat, who are also 0-2 behind, are also particularly concerned about whether they can set off a counterattack at home to regain the score.

A day later, the Cavaliers visited American Airlines Arena in Miami for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Heat.

At the end of May, Miami has already begun to enter the hot summer, which attracts a large number of tourists from all over the United States and abroad to come here for beach vacation surfing, which also further stimulates Miami's hot ball market.

The American Airlines arena was crowded with people, and the excitement on the faces of the fans was as hot as the temperature of the city.

To add fuel to the fire, before the game began, the photographers on the scene photographed the James couple on the sidelines!

Half a season ago, James' team requested a trade from the Cavaliers, shaking the league.

In addition to proposing the trade itself, James' team also specified at the time that it would only go to the Heat.

And at the wedding in January this year, James invited Bosh of the Heat in addition to his "banana boat" friends Paul, Anthony and Wade.

Now that he suddenly appeared on the sidelines of the American Airlines Arena, it can't help but make people think about it.

You must know that the contract James signed with the Cavaliers was for the third year with a player option, which means that he has the right to jump out of the contract this summer.

Although he expressed his willingness to stay in Phoenix in the previous interview, the player's statement was nonsense until the last minute.

In his previous life, Durant stated that he would be old to Oklahoma, and George said that he had been an Indiana all his life, but in the end, he took the initiative to change his court, and there were even cases where Jordan Jr. promised to sign with the Mavericks but staged a "blocking the door" at the last moment to change to the Clippers.

This is also the reason why Tang Tian wanted James to sign a written guarantee for contract renewal.

James' coming to the Heat this summer is a highly probable event.

Of course, in fact, if James chooses to jump out of his contract this offseason, then the entire league will be shaken again.

James' presence made the mood in the American Airlines arena even higher.

There are even many fans who regard this as a kind of "investigation", after all, after experiencing the defeat of the Suns last season, James must want to join a competitive team.

The Heat's performance at home is likely to influence James' final decision.

In the enthusiastic cheers of the fans at the scene, the starters of the Cavaliers and the Heat were introduced one after another.

On the Cavaliers' side, Tang Tian followed the lineup of the first two games, with Paul Gaglin on the outside, Carter and Artest on the front, and Yao Ming on the center.

The Cavaliers were followed by the Heat.

Just when the Heat were introduced to the game as a starter, Casey's expression was stunned.

The Heat did make changes to the starting lineup, pushing Bosh to the No. 5 position, and the guard line was still Chanmos and Wade, but the forward line was Mike Miller and James Jones.

It's exactly the same as what Tang Tian said before!

If Tang Tian hadn't told him about Spoelstra's experience before, he might have thought that Spoelstra was possessed by Tang Tian!

This starting adjustment, there was no wind before the game, and the fans and commentators at the scene were surprised.

The on-site photographer gave the camera to the coaching staff of the two teams one after another.

Spoelstra's face was full of confidence, which drew a cheer from the fans.

After a pause for a few seconds, the camera casually cuts back to the Cavaliers coaching staff, who want to further boost the atmosphere through the contrasting expressions of the two head coaches.

However, when the camera passed, they found that Tang Tian and Casey were extremely calm, and even seemed a little calm.

The style of painting is completely different from what was expected, but it caused a burst of restlessness on the scene.

They hurriedly cut the shot.

This is stealing chickens and rice.

After the opening ceremony, the starters from both sides appeared one after another.

Yao Ming and Bosh's jump ball.

To the cheers of the fans, Bosh flicked the ball back into the Heat half, and the home team had the opportunity to take the lead.

Chammos dribbled the ball to the front court, handed the ball to Wade, and the reporter directly signaled his teammates to open up space.

Mike Miller and James Jones are both shooting above 40% from three-point range this season, the Cavaliers are afraid to shrink the basket, and Wade single-handedly hits Green.

Green's defense was good, but Wade's breakthrough was even better, and he scored a rebound after accelerating past him.

The Heat took the lead.

The American Airlines Center was boiling.

Fans don't understand tactics, they watched the live broadcast before, watched Wade's bumps and bumps in Cleveland, and now they are back at home, and they are finally liberated!

The Cavaliers' offense.

Paul went to the frontcourt and looked for Artest's block.

The Heat continued their previous defensive strategy, with Miller and Chanmos going straight out to save on Paul.

And in the process of this pounce, Bosh has recovered the basket and blocked Artest's layup route.

Paul distributed the ball to Yao, Bosh flew out, and Miller turned and withdrew to the basket.

Both Miller and Bosh moved much faster than Beasley and Thompson before, and the speed advantage of the small lineup played perfectly at this moment, and the Heat played a perfect defense.

The cheers of the fans at the stadium were even louder.

Even if they don't understand the ball, the adjustments at both the offensive and defensive ends are completely different from the first two games.

The whole alliance is talking about how powerful Tang Tian's tactics are, and now it seems that Spoelstra is not bad at all!
