After the big score reached 3-2, there was almost no suspense in the finals. Especially after returning to the Younger Arena at home, countless old fans called on the team to win the game online so that they could celebrate at home.
Compared with attending the awards ceremony away from home, home court is undoubtedly the real destination.
With such calls, the battle between the two sides also came to the sixth game of the series.
In this game, the Shougang team made a desperate attempt to counterattack. They directly put Dwyane Wade in the starting position and asked others to continuously feed him the ball. At the same time, they created more pick-and-rolls and placed almost all bets on Wade. On the body.
This approach really works.
Wade played the entire first minute without even a minute's rest. Although he is older, he can still show his remaining energy in the CBA arena.
Zhao Feiyang still had restrictions on him, but the Shougang team cleverly used pick-and-rolls to help Wade resolve it. Although it couldn't be done like that every time, it at least opened up the situation for Wade.
Considering the desperate effort of the Shougang team, the Bayi team did not try their best from the beginning.
When the team's score difference was not big, Zhao Feiyang took the initiative to ask head coach Wang Zhizhi to take a break. Wang Zhizhi had no intention of rejecting this and simply replaced Zhao Feiyang.
Without Zhao Feiyang, the Bayi team's offense on the field has become more diverse. Although the offensive power is not as good as before, the players can continue to find various opportunities through passing the ball to each other.
Naturally, this style of play still couldn't stop Wade, but it also held the Shougang team firmly and didn't let the Shougang team pull away too much.
call out.
At the end of the first half, both sides entered the break.
The score was 50 to 44, with the Shougang team leading by 6 points.
Zhao Feiyang played 16 minutes and scored a total of 23 points, 4 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals. Wade played 24 minutes and scored a total of 26 points, 3 assists and 1 steal.
Compared with the data of the two, it seems that Wade is better, but in fact, Zhao Feiyang has been in a state of recharging his energy, while Wade has shown some fatigue.
Fast forward to the second half.
Sure enough, as the game progressed, Wade's physical fitness began to have problems. To make matters worse, in terms of physical issues, Wade's knee injury also made it difficult for him to support.
The reason why he chose to stay in the CBA instead of returning to the NBA was not only because of his business, but also because of his knee problems.
If the knee injury occurs in the NBA, once it encounters the intensity of the playoffs, the injury may easily recur. But if it is in the CBA, Wade believes that it will not be a problem to recover while playing, at least it will not get worse.
It turns out he is still young!
Since entering the finals, the intensity he has encountered has become stronger every game. Although everyone else was at the CBA level, the Zhao Feiyang he was guarding was not. The competition between the two on the court was also very fierce. If Zhao Feiyang hadn't been restrained everywhere because of his teammates, I'm afraid Wade would have faced even more severe challenges. .
Now that the team's record is unfavorable, he is the only one who can rely on him. In this case, Wade can only play with his illness. Although it will not have a big impact on the injury, it is still consuming his body.
So when the third quarter entered the second half, Wade was replaced by the team's head coach.
Now that the Shougang team was without him, the Bayi team took advantage of the situation to catch up. After coming on the stage, Zhao Feiyang was in good condition and his shooting touch was relatively hot. He sent the ball into the Shougang team's basket one after another.
In this way, the balance of victory and defeat gradually tilted towards the Bayi team.
When everyone thought that the Bayi team would easily win, and that the fourth quarter of both sides would directly enter the hot chicken time, that man appeared again.
Yes, Wade risked injury to continue playing.
At this time, the score was 77 to 83, and the Shougang team was widened to a 6-point gap.
Originally, they lost by more points, but to be on the safe side, coach Wang Zhizhi replaced Zhao Feiyang to rest midway, so that the score would not be too wide.
Now that Wade was replaced again, the Bayi team naturally sent Zhao Feiyang to the court.
call out.
It was the Shougang team's turn to attack.
Wade advanced with the ball.
Zhao Feiyang personally went up to mark him one on one.
The two faced each other, and Zhao Feiyang also spoke to Wade, "Dwayne, the game is over in more than 5 minutes! You can't win, just admit defeat! Man, don't get hurt for the game. Your knees..."
"Zhao, are you kidding me? When did I ever admit defeat?"
Wade responded unconvinced, "We were once teammates. We didn't give up when we were playing like that with the Spurs. How could I give up now?"
"Really? Looks like you could use a little pressure!"
After saying that, Zhao Feiyang pounced forward and stretched out his hands to interfere with Wade's dribbling. The sudden pressing defense made Wade immediately nervous. He kept retreating to try to open up space. Fortunately, at this time, Sun Yue came from the wing position to respond.
Wade took this opportunity to rush to the basket under the cover of Sun Yue. Two Bayi team players came up to double-team. Wade jumped one player away, then jumped up in mid-air and threw the ball towards the basket. go out.
Uh-huh.
The ball went in.
The basketball hollow falls into the basket.
Seeing Wade score, Zhao Feiyang also quickly asked his teammates to pass the ball to him. After getting the ball, he quickly held the ball to the top of the arc on the half-court side. When his teammates signaled to come up to cover, Zhao Feiyang directly gestured for his teammates to pull away.
Sun Yue on the side was ready to help Wade double-team, but Wade waved his hand to refuse.
"Get out of the way!"
"he's mine."
When Sun Yue heard what Wade said, he could only choose to give up the distance and let Wade and Zhao Feiyang one on one.
The fans at the scene stood up excitedly when they saw this scene. After all, such a matchup is rare even in the NBA, but now it is seen in the Chinese domestic league, and it is also in the finals. I am afraid that such an opportunity will be missed. In the future, there will be only a few in the history of CBA.
There was thunderous applause.
Wade had already put into a defensive posture, and Zhao Feiyang no longer hesitated, changing his position one after another and suddenly rushed to the right. Wade moved quickly, but Zhao Feiyang suddenly stopped and dribbled the ball from behind. When the basketball came to Zhao Feiyang's left hand, Wade also reacted immediately.
But before he could pounce on him, Zhao Feiyang made a step back from the left, directly opening space with Wade and raising the basketball to shoot.
Uh-huh.
A crisp three-pointer fell firmly into the basket.
Wade defended very hard, but unfortunately he still missed.
When the basketball scored, the fans at the scene cheered for Zhao Feiyang's performance.
The game goes on.
Wade still refused to admit defeat. Although his performance in individual duels was obviously not as good as Zhao Feiyang, he still kept trying to score.
The Shougang team's pick-and-roll continued, and the double-teaming against Zhao Feiyang was also carried out again.
With this style of play, the two sides fought until the last 50 seconds of the game. At this time, the score between the two sides was 104 to 99, and the Shougang team was 5 points behind.
The ball belongs to Shougang, and it looks like they still have a chance to tie.
Pause time.
On the Shougang team's bench, Wade, as the super core, also stood up and expressed his stance.
"Just give me the ball!"
"I will lead you to turn defeat into victory!"
Wade personally spoke, and the team certainly had no reason to refuse. After all, among the players present, only Wade and Zhao Feiyang have this kind of key ball ability. The other players' key ball abilities are not stable enough, or they have more luck.
call out.
The referee whistle sounded.
Both sides appear again.
Snapped.
Sure enough, the Shougang team gave the ball directly to Wade.
As soon as he got the ball, the Bayi team immediately took full-court marking measures. The Shougang team had already made arrangements, and Sun Yue and others came over to help cover Wade. Soon, Wade rushed through the half court through the screen. When Zhao Feiyang was blocked by Sun Yue and could not pounce in time, Wade took the lead and found a shot opportunity on the right side of the three-point line.
Uh-huh.
Wade took a decisive shot and sent a three-pointer steadily into the basket.
102 to 104.
The Shougang team is only 2 points away.
There are only 31 seconds left in the game.
It seems that the Shougang team still has a chance.
The Bayi fans at the scene were very nervous.
"Damn it! We can't let them win!"
"You must not lose! You must not lose!"
The Bayi team serves.
Zhao Feiyang was double-teamed, and Wang Lang temporarily came up from the flank to respond. The person responsible for passing the ball was Tang Shengsong. Everything was fine, but just before he threw the basketball, the Shougang team player who was guarding him blocked his view, preventing Tang Shengsong from discovering Sun Yue hiding behind Wang Lang.
Snapped.
The basketball had just been thrown, and Sun Yue directly intercepted it from halfway.
After winning the ball, he rushed towards the unguarded basket without any hesitation.
boom.
Sun Yue leaped high and hit a two-handed dunk, slamming the ball into the basket with 28 seconds left in the game.
This mistake by the Bayi team also caused the scores to be tied again.
104 versus 104.
The outcome on the field became increasingly blurry.
