O'Neal's injury requires surgery and he is not expected to return until February, disrupting the Heat's arrangement.
Wade also invited Lai Li to have a meal...no, he asked Lai Li not to fuck him so much and to give him some bath time so that he could recuperate and not be overworked and suffer from injuries.
Don't be stupid, Dwyane, the Heat aren't going to catch someone for profit unless there's no other way.
If O'Neal is injured, there is nothing we can do. If Wade can't play, who will?
Logically speaking, O'Neal never played full attendance when he traveled east to Miami. Wade should have adapted to O'Neal's basic skills. Moreover, O'Neal entered the injured list and Jason Williams just returned from injury.
However, Laili is very discerning. When asked by reporters in the new season, he expressed his concern that the Heat would have injury problems, and it turned out to be true.
Within two days, Payton suffered a knee injury. This was entirely due to his age. Besides, he was already 38 years old and had won a championship. He already knew his destiny and the fuel in the tank was low. Even if No harm, no use.
What caught the Heat most off guard was that Posey also suffered a knee injury. Do you think it is possible that there is a problem with the Heat's training intensity?
Injuries come one after another, and Jason Williams and Posey were not injured when they were with the Grizzlies.
Forget about being injured, but Posey's condition has declined very seriously. As long as he is not a role player who is one of the strongest championship puzzle players in history, his performance is not so awkward. With his cheap mid-level contract and all-round attributes, he will not be outclassed. Please go.
At this time, Percy is really useless, just like Wang Xiaoer's New Year, each year is worse than the last. This is the situation of Percy.
The championship teams have more veterans and rarely give opportunities to newcomers. Dorell White was trained as Kobe, but he was a parallel import.
Iron-blooded power forward Wayne Himien is also unable to play.
Su Bei did play well, but because the contract extension was not negotiated, it was hard to describe their performance in the new season.
The defense has hardly improved, but the offense has become more active. I have also learned to attack with the ball. However, the efficiency of holding the ball is poor. If I leave the shooter alone, I have to attack with the ball. If you have the strength, I will not say it, but you are still a weakling. Addicted, you are playing the Heat, right?
Mourning is already 36 years old and has fulfilled his championship dream. There is no need to continue risking his life to play basketball. He doesn't want to lose his beautiful wife before she gets old before he spends all his money.
There is only one center, Michael Doriak, who averages 3 points and 3 rebounds per game. Except for his height of 2.11 meters, everything else is useless.
The Heat can only put Haremle at the center position and use a small lineup to run and attack.
Copying the Suns' homework is not easy. After all, Wade is not Nash, and neither is Jason Williams. He runs very fast, but you are a blast?
If you can't attack, no matter how fast you run, what's the point?
Can the Nuggets run fast? If it weren't for the plateau home court, it would probably be rotten and buried in the ground.
If you can't run and gun, you can't attack, and playing with a small lineup doesn't matter. It's just that you can't protect the rim, and the defense can't prevent the rim-blasting style.
The most uncomfortable thing is that the Heat are the defending champions. As the biggest winner last season, they will definitely be the loser of all teams in the new season, which means they will be targeted by other teams and have arrows pointed at them.
For example, a bad team can lose to anyone, but when facing the Heat, you have to work hard. If you lose, it doesn't matter. If you win, you can grab the headlines and brag about how talented you are. Elite.
Another example is that playoff teams will definitely treat the Heat as an imaginary enemy.
One is to weigh your own strength. It is impossible to retain your strength. Only by going all out can you show your strength, and then check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
At the same time, with the intention of stepping on the Heat a few times, it would be better to take advantage of the Heat's illness and stomp him on the ground so that he can't stand up. It would be better if he was broken up.
No one wants to encounter this kind of potential enemy in the playoffs.
After all, the defending champion team often competes very well in the playoffs for the so-called honor, and is very tenacious, like an invincible little team.
So, the Heat are a tough team every night, so I ask you, can you withstand it?
I can handle it!
You can't stand it!
At the end of the November schedule, the Heat only had 6 wins and 9 losses, unable to even achieve a 50-50 winning rate, ranking tenth in the Eastern Conference.
At the end of the schedule in December, we had 13 wins and 17 losses, which was still the same.
Entering the new January of 2007, with 20 wins and 25 losses, it still did not reach a 50-50 winning rate. The ranking improved by one place, ranking 9th in the Eastern Conference.
At this time, good news came one after another from the Heat.
One of them is that the Grizzlies saw that they had no chance of the playoffs and decided to buy out Eddie Jones' contract. Then, Jones came to vote and became a member of the Heat.
At the same time, O'Neal is extremely talented, recovering very well from surgery, and there is no delay in his return.
February 1, American Airlines Center.
At this time, the Heat ushered in the return of O'Neal and Eddie Jones' return to the Heat for the first game. The opponent was the Cavaliers led by James.
The Heat were suppressed by the Cavaliers in the first three quarters and trailed by 8 points entering the final quarter.
In the fourth quarter of the game, Wade stopped pretending and revealed his identity as a "free throw machine".
He got the ball and rushed into the basket. He got 15 free throws and made 14 of them. His shooting was also unparalleled. He made 5 of 7 shots. He scored 24 points and 1 assist in a single quarter. His performance was amazing, surpassing James' fourth. His performance of 7 points and 1 rebound in the quarter turned into a scumbag, leading the Heat to counterattack the game with a 34-23 offensive.
With Wade's momentum in defeating the Cavaliers alone, as well as O'Neal's return from injury and the addition of Jones, the Heat went on a 6-1 run before the All-Star Game, raising their winning percentage to 50-50. With 26 wins and 26 losses, he ranked eighth in the Eastern Conference and announced to the entire league: He is back on the championship Heat team.
However, the crisis has quietly befallen the Heat.
When playing against the Trail Blazers on February 13, Wade suffered an injury to his left hand. In order to maintain his upward momentum, Wade decided to attend the All-Star Game despite the injury.
tomato
Then, after the 2007 All-Star Weekend, the Rockets dealt a fatal blow to the Heat, which was getting back on track.
The first game of the All-Star Weekend, Toyota Center Arena.
In the first quarter, the Heat were blown away and trailed by 12 points, 19-31. By the end of the third quarter, the Heat were already 14 points behind.
To be fair, the Rockets are in a significantly better competitive state, and they are playing at home. They led by 14 points in the last quarter. The advantage is mine, and the victory is almost sealed.
Who gave the Heat the courage to reverse course?
Don't ask, just ask that with O'Neal's comeback and Jones joining, the Heat's confidence is back.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Posey, who was in good condition, suddenly broke out and scored a three-pointer with a raised hand.
Then, he stole Alston and assisted Wade for another 2 points, instantly narrowing the point difference to 9 points.
Immediately afterwards, Su Bei also stole Rutherhead. Although he failed to counterattack, during the position battle, Mourning attacked the basket and caused Hayes's thug to foul.
Mourning made one of two free throws. The gap between the two sides was only 8 points. Less than 2 minutes had passed in the fourth quarter. According to this counterattack rhythm, are the Heat still far away from a reversal?
By the way, Posey and Su Bei made consecutive steals.
Wade, as a little expert in stealing, can't help but try his skills, right?
As a result, you will die if you try.
Battier passed the ball without realizing it, and Wade suddenly reached out with his left hand, trying to steal the ball. This situation is very common on the court. When playing football, when the opponent passes the ball, the attacking team will try to block it by stretching their feet. .
When playing basketball, when the opponent passes the ball, he will stretch his hands to see if he can catch the ball.
However, this time the pass was unremarkable.
God made a joke to Wade. Battier passed the ball with great force, and the inside of Wade's arm blocked Battier's force application.
As a result, Wade's injured left hand was injured again, causing a severe upper arm dislocation.
Wade was helped off the field with a face full of pain. When the team doctor on the scene checked his injury, he just touched his biceps lightly, and the pain made him shed tears.
It was impossible to continue the game. Wade still wanted to fight with his teammates until the end. He endured it on the bench for a few minutes. In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer. He was helped into a wheelchair by his teammates and pushed away from the arena and rushed directly to the hospital. Get tested and treated.
Wade was injured and taken away. The condition of the injury is unknown. It is no longer necessary for the Heat to continue to fight against the Rockets. Without Wade, the Heat's lineup has basically fallen apart.
Laili was helpless. The only thing he could do was stare at Jeff Van Gundy fiercely.
What a good disciple he is!
O'Neal was eliminated in November.
Wade was eliminated in February.
The Heat's building collapsed!
There is no doubt that the Rockets led by Van Gundy made a contribution.
Van Gundy's face was as calm as water. He remembered that when he was in the Knicks, he fell in love with the Heat who came to Los Angeles.
This is all a script, to create a script where the two teams are mortal enemies.
However, I used too much force both times, and the fake beating turned into a real beating. I got angry and couldn't hold back. Can you rely on me?
So, you can’t rely on him, it’s all your choice, idol!
We were behind by a big score, and we still had to fight him hard. Now we are better, and we are fighting injuries.
It's like the future Bulls have a big lead and want Rose to stay on the court.
Fuck Wade, screw Rose. If the team dares to do this, it must be prepared for players to get injured.
