The timeout comes back and the game continues.
The Warriors made substitution adjustments, replacing Bledsoe and Arab League and replacing them with Curry and Chandler.
The Heat replaced Arroyo and Big Z and replaced them with Chalmers and Haslem.
With the cheers of the fans in the audience, Curry stood on the free throw line, took the basketball from the referee, and made a steady free throw.
Immediately afterwards, the Warriors sent a sideline ball.
Curry quickly came out to receive the pass and dribbled to the top of the arc to organize the attack.
Sun Yi immediately stepped forward and set an off-ball screen for the primary school student, using his strong body to block the chasing Chalmers.
After Curry bypassed the screen, he quickly broke through to the penalty area. Seeing Sun Yi quickly passing down, he immediately passed the ball.
Sun Yi, who cut inside, received the pass and took three steps to attack the frame.
Haslem was entangled by Chandler and was unable to return to the basket to cover.
Seeing this situation, James let go of his defender and quickly retreated to the basket to help defend.
In a flash, Sun Yi, who was sprinting towards the basket, collided with James, who was moving sideways.
After the physical confrontation between the two, Sun Yi threw the ball randomly when he lost his balance, and then fell to the floor.
"Beep! Heat player No. 6 blocked a foul."
The referee blew the whistle and made a penalty gesture towards the technical table.
James looked aggrieved, spread out his hands, and explained to the referee: "Mr. Referee, I stood firm and there was no foul!"
The referee ignored it and insisted on his decision.
At the same time, Wade quickly ran over and pulled James away.
"LeBron, calm down, you have already received a technical foul!" Wade advised.
After hearing this, James felt a chill running down his back, feeling that his previous behavior was indeed reckless.
"Brother, thank you, I know what to do next."
After James finished speaking, he walked towards the free throw line and stood up.
With the cheers of the fans in the audience, Sun Yi stood on the free throw line, took the basketball from the referee, and scored 2 points with two free throws.
The ball is transferred and the Heat attack.
Chalmers dribbled to the frontcourt, observed the position of his teammates, and then passed the ball out.
In the high post area on the right, Wade received the pass and made a triple threat. He used a probing step to shake Morrow's center of gravity and quickly released the ball towards the penalty area.
Sun Yi and Chandler quickly retreated to the basket and were ready to help defend.
Seeing this, Wade broke through to the mid-range area on the right and hit a jump shot to stabilize the situation on the court.
Looking back, Curry and Chandler worked in a pick-and-roll, assisting the latter to complete an alley-oop dunk, winning applause from the audience.
The Heat immediately served and organized a fast break. Wade and James cooperated tacitly, assisting the little emperor to break into the penalty area and complete a one-handed dunk.
In this way, the two sides went back and forth, fighting back and forth, but failed to widen the point difference.
About seven minutes into the second quarter, the situation on the field changed.
During a fast break, James broke through with the ball and bumped into Battier who was retreating to the basket to defend.
The referee immediately blew the whistle and decisively awarded James an offensive foul.
It can be seen from the slow-motion replay on the big screen that Battier did stand his ground and there was no problem with the penalty.
"James received his third personal foul, which is not good for the Heat!" Kenny Smith analyzed with a frown.
"James is in a foul crisis and must be replaced to rest." Barkley echoed.
On the court, James shook his head helplessly, not daring to go forward and argue with the referee, and walked straight to the Heat bench.
Heat coach Spoelstra immediately understood and replaced Mike Miller on the court.
Due to the full number of fouls, Battier stepped to the free throw line and made both free throws.
After the Heat replaced James, both offense and defense were severely affected, and they could only rely on Wade and Bosh to score in singles.
On the Warriors bench, Nelson naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity and immediately replaced Mr. Tony on the court to strengthen defense.
After substitutions and adjustments, the Heat's offense was once again paralyzed, unable to break through the Warriors' iron-clad defense.
The Warriors took advantage of the Heat's consecutive shots and launched a defensive counterattack.
Curry, Battier and others hit three-pointers from the outside one after another, widening the point difference again.
Seeing that the point difference is getting wider and wider, the Heat will naturally not surrender.
Coach Spoelstra acted on the spot and made a series of adjustments.
First, replace three-pointers such as James Jones to open up space and create scoring opportunities for Wade.
Secondly, increase the defensive intensity and curb the Warriors' defensive counterattack.
After some adjustments, the effect was very good. The Heat stabilized the situation on the court and narrowed the point difference to less than ten points.
At the end of the half, the Warriors led the Heat by 8 points 48-40 entering the second half.
Not long after, the short 15-minute intermission ended and the second half began.
At the beginning of the third quarter, James hit his first three-pointer of the game, sounding the clarion call for the Heat's comprehensive counterattack.
Immediately afterwards, the Warriors missed the attack and the Heat counterattacked.
Wade broke into the paint and caused Chandler to foul, making the score two plus one, narrowing the point difference to only 2 points.
Seeing this situation, Nelson immediately requested a timeout and called the players back to the bench to adjust.
Not long after, the timeout ended and the game continued.
After the Warriors made some adjustments, the results were very good.
As soon as Curry came back, he hit a three-pointer with the help of Chandler's screen, stabilizing the situation on the court.
Immediately afterwards, the Warriors made a fuss about James's foul crisis and asked Sun Yi to continue to play singles.
In order to avoid fouling, James did not dare to make too many moves, and was wary of defending, which did not put a lot of defensive pressure on Sun Yi.
Therefore, Sun Yi played very easily in singles and scored consecutively, turning the situation on the court again.
The Heat immediately made adjustments so that James no longer defended Sun Yi and devoted himself to the offense.
Led by Wade and James, the Heat began to catch up.
The Warriors naturally don't want the Heat to narrow the point difference and have a final decisive battle.
Under the leadership of Sun Yi and Curry, the Warriors played a tacit coordination of internal and external passing and cutting, maintaining a weak lead.
In this way, in the third quarter, the two teams played evenly, with no one taking advantage, and the point difference was controlled within 5 points.
After the start of the fourth quarter, the Warriors suddenly exerted their strength, taking advantage of the Heat's failure to react, and launched a 7-0 offensive climax, widening the point difference again.
In order to prevent the Heat from counterattacking, the Warriors increased their defensive intensity, slowed down the pace of the game, and slowly wore out the Heat.
As time went by, the mentality of the Heat's players changed. They rushed to the doctor in a hurry and began to make desperate moves outside the three-point line.
Three-point shooting is not the Heat's strong point. With James and Wade and other main players playing for more than 40 minutes under high-intensity confrontation, physical strength problems have already appeared.
Amid internal and external troubles, the Heat suffered a rout and failed to close the gap.
Seeing this situation, the Warriors still did not rush forward and resolutely implemented the tactics they formulated, without giving the Heat any chance to overtake.
As time went on, the Warriors maintained their lead until the end.
In the end, the Warriors defeated the Heat 98-90.
In terms of statistics, 4 players from the Warriors scored in double figures.
Sun Yi's performance in this game was beyond doubt, and he undoubtedly won the honor of the best player of the game.
In the 42 minutes he played, he scored 28 points, 13 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks.
Curry's performance was also very good and he was one of the important contributors to the Warriors' victory.
In the 40 minutes he played, he scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal.
Battier made 3 of 3 three-pointers and scored 11 points and 3 rebounds; Chandler had a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds.
For the Heat, the most outstanding player is Wade.
In 44 minutes on the court, he scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal.
James played 42 minutes and scored 20 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.
Bosh scored 17 points and 7 rebounds.
The Big Three of the Heat scored 60 points together, accounting for two-thirds of the total points. You can imagine how poorly the other Heat players performed. It is not an exaggeration to call them CBA teammates.
After this game, many experts and celebrities immediately turned into idiots and praised the Warriors.
After the game, James did not accept an interview and walked toward the tunnel with a frustrated look.
Wade on the side patted James on the shoulder and comforted him: "LeBron, don't be stressed. We have played well enough. It's just a game. We can still afford to lose."
"Dwayne, you are wrong. This is not an ordinary regular season. I have a hunch that the Warriors will become our number one opponent in the future." James said with a serious expression.
"Man, I know what you are thinking, but our current opponent is not the Warriors. It is difficult for them to break out of the Western Conference with their current strength. We should not consider this." Wade analyzed.
"Dwayne, you're right, I'm overly worried."
James nodded after hearing this, his mood became much better, and he walked into the player tunnel with his head held high.
