Because the Heat restricted Irving and Durant very well, the Heat went on a 10:2 run.
The score on the court became 59:53 with the Heat leading.
The Nets called a timeout.
Facing the Heat's double-teaming of Irving and Durant, Vaughn scratched his head with both hands.
"Don't you have a third player who can stand up?" Vaughan roared angrily at the Nets players.
"Me! I'm coming!" Suddenly a man came out from the bench.
"Can you attack?" Vaughan asked with a frown as he looked at the visitor.
"I can do it!" Simmons took off the towel and looked seriously into Coach Vaughn's eyes.
Coach Vaughn remembers those eyes.
They were the most dazzling eyes in the spotlight on draft night in 2016, although they have lost their luster for a long time.
"Okay, Harris, take a break and let Simmons come in." Coach Vaughn looked at Harris and said.
Harris nodded.
"He wants to take my share with him."
"You can always trust the quality of a No. 1 pick."
"Snapped!!"
Harris and Simmons high five!
"Don't hold me back." Durant said as he entered the court.
"Don't hold me back."
"Everything seems to be getting more and more interesting. Yu seems to have woken up a really awesome guy." The corners of Owen's mouth rose.
"The Nets request a substitution."
CCTV5 live broadcast room.
"Who is it? Who else can take the lead and be the third attacking point for the Nets at this time?" Ma Jian frowned and looked at it. Someone who is gradually coming out of the bench.
"Simmons??? Is Coach Vaughn crazy? Can that guy attack? What the Nets need now is an attacker! What's the use of sending him up?" Shu Hai said first with a sarcastic look on his face.
"You've never played football, right? You've never seen this kind of look, so you can forgive me." Ma Jian looked seriously at Simmons' eyes in the video.
Ma Jian recalled that many very powerful opponents had this look in their eyes.
"Hey, let's see what happens next." Shu Hai said with a mocking look on his face.
The comments in the live broadcast room were even more ridiculing.
"Are the Nets giving up so soon?"
"If you send me up, I can still defend the next ball with my shoe. If you send Simmons up, aren't you just asking me to come up and stand?"
"The above, you must have athlete's foot. But I really don't understand what Vaughn's idea is to send Simmons to play after the first quarter was so miserable."
"The best seventh man, even the coach of the Nets is from the Heat. How can Durant and Irving win?"
"Simmons, go down, don't dirty my eyes."
At this time, the fans in the Barclays Center were even more crazy.
"Go down!! Go down!! Go down!!"
"Everyone, please believe me! I will equalize the score with my brothers in the remaining time of the 3rd quarter!!" Simmons shouted loudly towards the audience.
"Tch? Just you? It depends on Irving and Durant!"
"Five steps away from the basket, I guess you can't even see the basket, right?"
"What else can you do besides holding me back?"
Simmons raised his hands high above his head.
Take a deep breath.
"I guarantee my career. If the Nets don't equalize the score in the third quarter against the Heat, I, Simmons, will retire!" Simmons shouted hoarsely toward everyone in the Barclays Center. fans shouted.
The fans on the sidelines became quiet.
"It's him, he's back." Coach Vaughn looked at Simmons who was shouting excitedly.
Coach Spoelstra has some bad feelings. Although he knows that Simmons has major technical flaws, he always feels that Simmons will perform differently when he plays again.
"There is no need to worry about Simmons' offense for the time being. I will still double-team Irving and Durant." The live broadcast coach arranged.
Yuhang and the others nodded.
"Hey, hey, hey, what is that lunatic talking about?" Butler was stunned when he heard Simmons' declaration.
"He said he would tie the score in this quarter." Yuhang said calmly.
Yuhang felt that there was something different about Simmons. He had a completely different temperament from the Simmons he saw in the tunnel.
"It seems he is retiring early." Adebayor spread his hands helplessly.
Yuhang shook his head and said nothing.
After calming down the emotions of the audience on the sidelines, the players began to enter the stadium.
"I don't care what your declaration is, I will just do what I should do, don't hold me back." Durant said as he walked.
"I will definitely do what I said." Simmons said seriously as he walked.
"This is right, this is interesting." Irving jumped up and put his arms on the shoulders of Simmons and Durant respectively.
"It's time to fight back."
The score between the two teams was 59:53, with the Heat leading.
The Nets attack.
Irving dribbled the ball across half court. Yuhang and Vincent immediately came to double-team Owen.
After Irving struggled to get rid of it, he passed the ball to Durant outside the left three-point line.
Butler immediately stepped forward to interfere with Durant.
Durant raised his arm toward Butler, leaped high and threw the ball.
"Snapped!!!"
Butler's finger touched a little basketball.
"Damn rebounding!!"
"I touched Adebayo while grabbing the rebound!"
Adebayor and Claxton were stuck in position under the basket, and both sides tried their best.
"Bang!!!"
Sure enough, the basketball popped out of the frame.
Just when Adebayor and Claxton were about to jump up and grab the rebound.
A tall figure leaped high from behind Adebayor and Claxton to grab the rebound!
"Bang!!!"
The man directly pressed the ball into the basket with both hands.
It was Simmons. He dunked the ball into the basket like a magic weapon descending from heaven.
"Hey, hey, how high did he jump just now?"
"It's 3.6 meters, right?!"
"Mom..."
"This is Simmons' true strength. Keep going! Simmons!" Coach Vaughn's excitement off the court was palpable.
"Defended brothers!" Simmons shouted to his teammates.
"good!!"
The score on the court became 59:55, and the Heat temporarily took the lead.
After half of the Yuhang ball, Simmons and Irving switched defenses, and Simmons immediately came to defend Yuhang.
Yuhang saw Simmons, who was a head taller than him, and leaned over in order to change direction and pass Simmons at speed.
"Snapped!!!"
Unexpectedly, when Simmons was defending, he bent down lower than Yuhang, and cut off Yuhang's ball with his right hand.
The moment the two came into contact.
"Thank you."
Simmons grabbed the ball and immediately launched a fast break, rushing toward the Heat's basket at high speed. Yuhang desperately chased Simmons.
But in the end, he was still a step too late, and Simmons directly dunked with one hand!
The Barclays Center was quiet for a second.
"ah!!!!!"
Then the Barclays Center suddenly burst into flames! ! !
