Chapter 169 The Second Battle

On June 14, 2012, the second game of the finals began soon, and the venue of the game was still AT\u0026T Arena.

The Heat really adjusted their starting lineup, Bosh returned to the starting lineup, and Sean Battier became the Heat's starting power forward. The other three starters for the Heat are LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Mario Chalmers.

It seems that the Heat only listened to half of Mark Stein's opinion. They let Chris Bosh return to the starting lineup.

The Spurs continued to maintain their original starting lineup, and in the playoffs, the Spurs' rotation became very stable.

At the beginning of the game, it was Anxi who scored first again. Facing Wade's defense, Anxi directly made a mid-range shot after receiving the ball, which was a successful hit!

Then, James and Bosh went to the inside with the ball again and again, causing damage to the Spurs' inside, fouling consecutively, and walking to the free throw line.

However, Duncan also fought back inside. He first completed a 2+1, and then cut to the basket and dunked successfully. Not long after that, Shifo completed another violent dunk under the basket, scoring 7 points in a row.

The Spurs slowly dominated the first quarter.

Facing the disastrous defeat in the previous game, James also changed his style of play this time. He began to consciously save energy and hand over the ball to his teammates more. However, Wade was locked up by Anxi. No chance at all.

So in the first quarter, the Heat could only rely on Bosh to score. In order to win the game, James sacrificed himself and gave Bosh the inside space, and Bosh did not let the Heat down. The continuous strong scoring helped the Heat stabilize the situation.

After the first quarter, the Spurs entered the second quarter with a 26:19 lead by 7 points.

In the first half of the second quarter, Anxi was replaced again, and the Spurs sent a substitute lineup.

The Spurs, who sent a substitute lineup, played more and more smoothly, scoring consecutively and exerting strength one after another. However, the Heat's defense was slightly slack and the Spurs seized the opportunity.

Patrick Mills and Manu Ginobili scored consecutively, and the point difference between the two sides was quickly opened to 11 points.

In desperation, Eric Spoelstra had to replace James again, which once again caused a burst of complaints from Jamie in China, but James' return quickly played an effect, and the Heat regained their conversion offense. James and Wade took turns to attack, and the Heat chased the point difference to only 2 points with a 9:0 spurt.

Then, a controversial scene suddenly appeared on the court,

Facing Wade's offense, Manu Ginobili cut the ball directly, but Wade actually covered his face and fell on his back. The referee decisively called a foul. Ginobili fouled three times, and Popovich had to put him Changed it down.

Without Manu on the Spurs field, the Heat immediately seized this opportunity and counterattacked. At the end of halftime, the two teams tied at 43:43, and the game entered the second half.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. The scores of the two teams rose alternately. The game was very anxious. The Spurs' offensive state in this game was not very good, which led them to give the Heat a lot of opportunities. McMiller's three-pointer once gave the Heat the lead, but Manu Ginobili, who reappeared in the third quarter, responded with two consecutive three-pointers, and suddenly brought the situation back on the court.

Eric Spoelstra immediately called a timeout, and after a short arrangement, the two teams re-entered the field.

After re-entering the field, James began to exert strength. He accumulated strength for a whole half. In the second half, seeing that the scores of the two teams were still anxious, he immediately began to exert strength.

He succeeded in 3 consecutive jump shots and led the team to overtake again with 8 points in a row. And this is far from the end of James' performance, and then he made two consecutive mid-range shots, and he scored 14 points in a single quarter. But after he left the field, the Heat fell into the rhythm of not being able to play again. Ginobili steals Wade and succeeds in making a mid-range shot. Patrick Mills scored 3 points from the bottom corner. Tony Parker scored 4 points even with a penalty shot. 78:77 still holds a one-point advantage.

In the last quarter, the two teams started a decisive battle, and Anxi also played again to defend Wade.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Chris Bosh hit Duncan with a 2+1, and then Mike Miller hit a three-pointer to help the Heat lead again.

But Manu Ginobili quickly stood up again, first made a difficult layup, then assisted Anxi to hit a three-pointer, and brought the score back.

Next, the impatient Heat began to increase the physical confrontation on the defensive end. Mario Chalmers elbowed Manu Ginobili and got a malicious foul, but the Spurs were affected by the criminal and missed four consecutive free throws. This gave the Heat a chance .

At this time, LeBron James stood up again, made sudden shots, caused Kawhi Leonard to foul, scored five points in a row, and the Heat took a slight lead.

The game began to enter the final decisive stage.

Facing a dangerous situation, Manu Ginobili, who has a big heart, stood up again. Facing Dwyane Wade's defense, he hit a three-pointer again and helped the Spurs equalize the score, 90 tie!

In order to win the decisive stage, Anxi began to switch defenses against James, but the effect of the switch defense was not very good. LeBron James continued to score, helping the Heat to bite the score.

On the Spurs side, Manu Ginobili continued to grit his teeth and score, and continued to tie the score.

In the next two waves of offense and defense, both teams missed. The more they fought to the end, the more intense the game became.

But then, James broke through to attract double-teams, and after scoring the ball, Chris Bosh caught the ball and hit a three-pointer.

The Spurs were misfired here, Tony Parker's jumper hit the iron, and Chris Bosh continued to perform strongly, breaking through Duncan's defense and layup.

The point difference was widened by 5 points. In the next last wave of offense, Manu Ginobili hit a three-pointer at the buzzer, but it was too late.

In the end, in the second game at the AT\u0026T Arena, the Spurs lost by two points 96:98.

In this battle, LeBron James scored 35 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, Bosh had 24 points and 3 rebounds, Wade had 14 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, and Mike Miller had 14 points.

As for the Spurs, the overall state of the Spurs is not very good. The highest scorer is Manu Ginobili, who has been exploding. After 27 points in the previous game, Manu scored 25 points again, plus 5 Tony Parker scored 16 points and 5 assists, Tim Duncan scored 18 points and 11 rebounds, and Anxi's scoring dropped sharply in this game. He took a total of 7 shots and hit 3 goals. 9 points, plus 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

On the defensive end, Anxi's performance was still acceptable. The defensive Wade made 5 of 15 shots and only scored 14 points. However, compared with the previous game, the offensive end declined a bit faster. (To be continued.)
