Chapter 843: James Felt a Chill Down His Spine!

Less than three minutes into the game, the Miami Heat, playing at home, requested a timeout after the score was 2-10.

Spoelstra had to request a timeout.

James' performance on the court was a bit too much.

Everyone in the Heat knew that this game against the Supersonics was a "letter of surrender" game for James.

Although the team's recent 26-game winning streak has greatly improved the environment within the team for James, it is really hard to say that James' undercover performance in the Christmas game against Yes, which inexplicably allowed Yes to score 100 points, has made everyone feel relieved.

At least, except for Wade who seems to have completely let it go, even he can't understand James' game very much.

James needs a victory against Yes to make the whole team completely assured of him, and it can't be an ordinary victory.

The Heat's victory against the Supersonics is just a perfect game that can provide James with a letter of surrender.

Because if Yes loses this game, he will fall out of the playoffs!

If James is not on the same side with the Heat.

But on the same side with Yes.

Then James cannot win this game.

If James is on Yes' side, this regular season victory, which is the most needed in Yes's career, James will definitely hand it over to Yes.

On the contrary.

If James can beat Yes mercilessly in such a game, then there is no doubt that James is his own!

At the very least, even if he is not his own, he is definitely not on Yes' side!

In this way, the turbulent atmosphere of distrust within the entire Heat team this season can be completely dissipated.

Although Spoelstra is a rookie head coach, he is not a person without ability.

He is a disciple of the famous coach Pat Riley, and he has the ability.

Although these All-Stars in the team basically treat him as a puppet, he did not argue, but just watched coldly.

After the Heat's 26 consecutive wins this season, the whole world feels that the Heat is invincible.

But as the head coach of the Heat, he has never felt that way.

For him, this game must not be lost!

But the start of this game that cannot be lost made him very, very uncomfortable.

The stronger team fell behind the Sonics by 8 points right from the start.

The whole team was standing on the court for the past two minutes and watching James challenge Yes!

In the past two minutes, James challenged Yes, which was the team's established strategy.

Because the atmosphere within the team has always been an obstacle to the team's progress.

The team is strong, incomparably strong.

However, if these strong players in your team cannot trust each other and cannot put their backs on their teammates, then no matter how strong the strength is, there is no way to pull together.

Therefore, this game with the Sonics is really, really important!

The reason why the Heat can't unite is very clear, that is, what kind of relationship does James and Yes have!

If they win this game against Yes and send Yes out of the playoffs, it will be time for the Heat to take off completely!

So, since James wants to end Yes's playoff journey this season with his own hands, he and other players on his team are of course happy to see it.

Therefore, the tactic of James attacking first was formulated.

However,

James's tactic of attacking first made Spoelstra quite solemn.

James is one of the three strongest players in the league now.

According to Pippen, James is even stronger than Jordan!

For Pippen's statement, let's not argue whether it is Pippen's true idea or whether it is true.

But at least, James is a player who can be compared with Jordan in strength!

A player who can be compared with Jordan in strength was directly beaten by Yes in a one-on-one duel with Yes?

This is really confusing!

Really, Spoelstra doesn't have any opinions about James.

He even thinks that James' strength is indeed above Wade.

If Wade is willing to hand over the position of team leader to James, he will absolutely support it.

He thinks it doesn't matter if the team is led by James.

But.

A player who is as strong as Jordan was beaten like this when facing Yes. This is unreasonable, right?

Yes's strength is the first in NBA history, stronger than Jordan, and he recognizes this.

But even so, if you say that when Jordan faced Yes, in the first two and a half minutes, his team only scored two points and Yes scored ten points, I'm afraid no one would believe it?

It's really hard to believe!

Even the comparison between James and Yes is uglier than the score comparison between the Heat and the Supersonics!

When the assistants put the technical statistics in front of him before he requested a timeout, he was really stunned.

Yes played for two and a half minutes and had already scored 6 points, 3 steals, 2 blocks and 1 assist!

And what about James on the opposite side?

He only scored two points and made 3 turnovers!

A player with the same strength as Jordan challenges another player. Regardless of whether this player is the strongest player in history, it is very inappropriate to score 2 points and 3 turnovers compared to 6 points, 1 assist, 3 steals and 2 blocks.

Even such a data comparison makes people question their IQ!

He immediately requested a timeout, not only because he felt that his IQ was insulted.

At the same time, he was also worried that other players on the Heat team really couldn't help but directly confront James on the court and cause internal strife!

He felt that his IQ was insulted by James.

Not to mention the other Heat players who actually participated in this game.

In the context of James, a player with the same strength as Jordan, Yes has become a Transformer!

Is Yes a Transformer?

Of course not!

At least Ben Gordon, Chandler and Chris Bosh are absolutely unconvinced!

They recognize Yes's strength, but they absolutely do not believe that Yes's strength has reached such a level!

When they left the court with James Wade and others, these people did not say a word.

But everyone's eyes looking at James were not so kind.

You treat us as fools, we admit it, but even if we are fools, we are still human beings, and we have intelligence!

During the timeout, the atmosphere on the Heat bench was a little strange.

This kind of strangeness, which could break out at any time, Spoelstra certainly understood and felt it.

But what can he do?

The starting players of the team are all big names in the league!

Not only are the starting players big names, but the substitutes like Grant Hill, O'Neal and others are also a group of big names!

These big names are not insignificant trash like Redick, they are qualified to have their own emotions.

Like Marbury, he made such a big fuss in the team, but in the end, the Heat could only send him away politely?

This is the ranking of the status in the NBA!

Now the Heat wants to change this situation. It's very simple, that is, James really makes everyone feel that he is really playing Yes, instead of making people feel that he is insulting everyone's IQ.

Of course, James naturally has the opportunity to prove himself.

But not now.

Now they are 8 points behind. Even if the Heat is stronger, they can't really ignore the Supersonics and Yes.

Spoelstra's timeout this time is mainly to adjust the tense atmosphere in the team.

He didn't say too much about James' insult to everyone's IQ just now.

After encouraging the team, he began to arrange his own tactics.

"Benjamin, Dwyane, if possible, after the timeout, I hope you can share some of LeBron's pressure."

Hearing Spoelstra's tactical arrangement.

James' face was very ugly, Wade looked at James with worry, while Bosh, Ben Gordon, Chandler and other Heat players looked much more relaxed.

Their relationship with James is not as deep as that between Wade and James. They can hold back now because they are formed for the championship. Many people say that they are a mercenary group.

They don't explain. They are indeed a mercenary group formed for the championship.

This season they are here to win the championship, not to accompany James to act!

If Spoelstra really continues to ask them to act with James, they will definitely not support it.

Fortunately, although the team's boss Wade stood on James' side, the team's head coach still stood on their side.

The atmosphere of the Heat team was eased.

On the other side, on the bench of the Seattle Supersonics.

Because the team was leading by 8 points at the beginning, the extremely nervous mood of the Supersonics players who were very nervous before the game was greatly relieved.

Everyone looked at Yes with respect.

They didn't care whether James was acting with Yes just now.

For them, the team is now the leading side!

Even Ibaka, who has been under a lot of pressure recently, is in a much better spirit now.

"Serge, you still don't have to worry about defending James. You just need to stand behind me and use your speed, height and wingspan to slightly slow down James's actions."

Compared with James in 2016, the offensive means and offensive habits of James now are exactly the same, but there is one difference, that is, James's speed and impact are indeed stronger now.

Although his explosive power is stronger than before, if he wants to perfectly trap James, he still needs Ibaka's help.

Ibaka's strength is indeed crushed by James, but Ibaka's defensive speed and assisting defense are indeed very good. It is really difficult for Ibaka to defend against a strong player alone, but he is now very qualified to delay the opponent's offense.

With Ibaka's help, he can completely cover James.

Even if James is stronger now than in 2016, he will not escape his prediction.

As long as James is still on the road to 2016, he will not escape his control!

The timeout is over and the game resumes.

The Miami Heat serves the frontcourt ball.

Chris Bosh did not pass the ball to Wade who was asking for the ball, but after hesitating for a while, he directly handed the ball to Ben Gordon.

Seeing Chris Bosh's choice, Wade's face darkened a little.

He was indeed prepared to continue to create opportunities for James after receiving the ball.

This was against the coach's arrangement.

But who is Spoelstra?

Why should we listen to him?

Obviously, his intentions were seen by his teammates.

After Ben Gordon received the ball, facing Ibaka who rushed over, he didn't take it seriously at all.

This rookie who likes to jump and has terrible defensive habits, he can play however he wants.

But!

He didn't plan to play Ibaka this time!

In the previous game, James made Yes look like a god, and he absolutely didn't believe it!

"Ben Gordon ignited Ibaka!"

"Ben Gordon did not choose to attack, Ibaka rushed over again!"

"Ben Gordon is going to play pick-and-roll with James!"

"Ben Gordon is going to create an opportunity for James to play Ibaka?"

"No! Ben Gordon is going to play Yes?!"

James was very excited to see Ben Gordon playing pick-and-roll with him, thinking that Ben Gordon would return the ball after the pick-and-roll.

Put the ball in his hands and let him play Ibaka, that is not a foregone conclusion!

However, after the pick-and-roll, Ben Gordon did not intend to return the ball at all!

Not only did he not intend to return the ball, but he directly challenged Yes!

"Beautiful instant breakthrough, Yes did not physically confront Ben Gordon, Yes gave way!"

"Yes adopted the same defensive strategy as defending James!"

"Incredible explosive power, Yes's explosive power is too outstanding!"

"Yes caught up again!"

Is this the explosive power that Yes used to catch up with me?

This time, as a bystander, James was really shocked to see Yes's terrifying explosive power catching up with Ben Gordon.

But what shocked James even more was that Ben Gordon, who was caught up by Yes, didn't care at all and just pulled up like that!

"Oh no, I'm going to be blocked by Yes!"

This scene is too familiar!

Yes was defending Ben Gordon the way he defended him, and Ben Gordon was attacking Yes the way he attacked Yes!

He was blocked twice by Yes in this way!

So when he saw Ben Gordon like this, he subconsciously shouted!

But almost at the same time, Ben Gordon dodged Yes's big hand that was close at hand and threw the basketball out!

Not blocked?

He could clearly see that Yes's full-strength block did not block Ben Gordon?

How is this possible? !

James's face was constantly changing.

Wade's face was constantly changing.

Even the Heat fans who were sweating for Ben Gordon on the sidelines and Heat head coach Spoelstra's faces were also constantly changing.

With a swish!

The ball went into the net!

James opened his mouth wide as he watched the basketball go into the net.

Almost at the same time, the sensitive James felt tens of thousands of unfriendly eyes looking at him.

He suddenly turned around and looked at those eyes that were like piercing his bones and cutting his flesh. Even though he was brave, he felt a chill down his spine for a moment.

Not good!
