On the court, the Mavericks were on the attack.

Because Su Feng had cut Kidd's pass out of bounds, Nowitzki replaced Nahura on the court during the dead ball.

On the left side of the high post, Nowitzki, who received a pass from his teammate through the sideline ball tactic, once again used his signature Golden Rooster Independence move.

It was just a pity that, perhaps because he had just returned to the court, the Little Driver, who hadn't warmed up yet, saw his shot deviate as soon as it left his hand.

In the restricted area, Mourning protected the rebound for the Heat.

The Heat quickly launched a fast break, but with the Mavericks retreating in time, the Heat switched to having everyone spread out, with Su Feng continuing to single-handedly attack Kidd at the high post.

The Mavericks' defensive strategy tonight was to double-team on every pick-and-roll.

However, when Su Feng directly went for a one-on-one, Davis and Brown were more inclined to let Kidd take the beating.

Unlike doubling on every pick-and-roll, if the Mavericks went to double-team Su Feng every time he got the ball at the high post, Su Feng could easily find his teammates in the open.

Moreover, compared to those open positions that had appeared previously...

Because double-teaming in this position would easily cause their own defense to be stretched wide, the other Heat players would likely get something even easier than an open shot...

An open layup.

And as the author of the "Basketball Space Theory," Davis didn't want to do such a stupid thing because he knew this principle.

At the high post, after a series of crossovers, Su Feng broke through along his left hand.

Kidd anticipated Su Feng's breakthrough route, but after Su Feng was brought near the three-second area, Kidd was helpless as he watched Su Feng forcibly rise up in front of him.

Because after gliding in the air for a long distance, Su Feng threw the basketball in his hand towards the basket.

And without a surface-to-air missile, how could Kidd shoot down Su Feng's big plane?

Could it be... by fumbling?

Swish!

35 to 29.

CCTV, Zhang指导, who couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart, exclaimed, "Tonight, Su Feng can make any shot he takes!"

Conversely, the Mavericks attacked.

Under the Heat's high-pressure defense, Nowitzki was unable to receive the ball immediately.

And Howard, who took the initiative to stand up, also suffered from Ariza's "Iron Curse" when he leaned back and turned around.

Clang!

Inside, Mourning once again protected the backcourt rebound for the Heat, and after getting the ball, Su Feng took advantage of the situation to launch a transition offense.

Kidd, who had been taking a beating and never stopped, quickly retreated and stopped Su Feng in time.

As a result, under Kidd's interference, Su Feng's beautiful contested shot also went wide.

And CCTV, Zhang指导, who had just praised Su Feng, didn't change his expression and said bluntly, "Although Su Feng didn't make this shot, this is how the Heat should play now."

Beside him, Yu Jia nodded and said, "A hero shines in times of crisis.

Tonight, let's see if Su Feng can turn the tide, or Nowitzki can save the collapsing building!"

The Mavericks attacked.

Nowitzki set a screen for Kidd on the wing, trying to cut out and receive the ball.

At this time, Su Feng also decisively chose to switch defense directly with his teammate.

As the dpoy of the past nine consecutive seasons in the minds of 8.8 billion Fengmi (Su Feng fans), the most bug-like thing about Su Feng when defending pick-and-rolls has never been his league-leading lateral movement ability.

It was his ability to switch defense from one to five.

Because in basketball games, even the fastest defensive players can't guarantee that they can get around every pick-and-roll, so...

When defending pick-and-rolls, the most important thing for defensive players is their ability to defend mismatches.

In Su Feng's previous life, the Cavaliers, who often ate, slept, and played Curry the first two times they met, later reduced their frequency of playing Curry because after gaining muscle, Curry's mismatch defense ability had reached above the passing line.

And on the court, when the smoothly cutting Little Driver saw Su Feng appear in front of him...

In his mind, the scene of Su Feng defending his German tank into a baby carriage on the court in Indianapolis three years ago instantly appeared.

Three years!

Three years have passed!

Su Feng! (gritting his teeth)

Do you know how I've been through these three years?

However...

On the wing, at the moment when he leaned against Su Feng's body, Nowitzki immediately discovered a fact that made him feel heartbroken.

That is...

Su Feng's solid body...

Was still the insurmountable chasm he couldn't shake.

However, compared to three years ago, it was no longer possible for Su Feng to replicate the scene where Nowitzki couldn't move him no matter what.

Because...

The clever Little Driver had already developed an unsolvable Golden Rooster Independence move.

But...

Perhaps it was because he wanted to prove himself too much in front of Su Feng.

Nowitzki obviously exerted too much force when he shot this ball.

Clang!

On the court, Nowitzki's turnaround fadeaway squarely hit the rim.

Ariza cleverly protected the second landing point of the ball.

The Heat attacked.

Just past halftime, Ginobili and Ariza both sank to the baselines on both sides.

Because the Heat's offensive space was stretched very wide, Howard didn't dare to rashly double-team Su Feng.

In front of the TV, looking at the Heat's almost rogue-like one-on-one tactics, Karl said with a face full of grief, "With a player like Su in the team, what's the use of a head coach?"

And beside him, Bird, who felt the lemon flavor emanating from Karl from the inside out, laughed and said, "For a superstar like Su, it's really superfluous to arrange complex tactics for him."

In fact, if your performance on the court reaches a certain level, you will naturally become a player with your own system.

In Su Feng's original time and space, many people liked to spray James and Curry as system players.

But to be honest...

If they really said that, then Jordan and Bird, including Magic and others, were actually system players.

For example, in the Bulls' second three-peat, only cloud fans would praise Phil Jackson's triangle offense.

And fans who had really watched the Bulls' games at that time knew...

In the final moments of the game, the thing Jordan liked the least was the damn triangle offense.

Because why bother with so much trouble when he could just get it done by handing him the ball?

Similarly.

If you have a shooter like Curry in your team, then if you don't arrange a special tactic for him, do you have to make him run back and forth on the court like an idiot?

And since you already have James in your team, then if you don't prepare shooters for him and give him space to maximize his breakthrough ability, then you can't treat him as a pure shooter, right?

In the NBA fan circle, there are always some haters who think they know a lot about basketball.

But in reality, apart from hating for the sake of hating, they can't make any waves at all.

At the top of the arc, after using a crossover to create distance between himself and Kidd, Su Feng beautifully threw a long two-pointer that broke Riley's heart, stepping on the three-point line.

When he was a fan, Su Feng also liked to complain about this kind of long two-pointer with low cost performance.

However, after personally experiencing NBA games as a player, Su Feng found that sometimes, you have to shoot this kind of long two-pointer.

Take just now for example...

In order to seize the first shot opportunity, Su Feng didn't have any extra room to maneuver.

Therefore, even if his toes were on the three-point line, he had to shoot decisively.

Swish!

35 to 31!

American Airlines Center, from being 12 points behind to chasing to only 4 points behind...

In just three minutes, Su Feng used his strength to interpret what it means to be unreasonable!

And what's even more unreasonable is...

After defending the Mavericks' offense for two consecutive possessions...

With 7 minutes and 18 seconds left in the second quarter...

As Su Feng's two consecutive intercontinental missiles exploded in the Dallas Mavericks' position...

35 to 37!

The Miami Heat had overtaken the score!

Dallas on site, compared to the joy a few minutes ago...

At this moment, even the most loyal Mavericks fans had lost the smiles on their faces.

And Miami on site...

Don't ask.

The answer is mvp!

The killing moment had arrived.

In front of Su Feng's god-like shots, the door to victory, which had been pushed open by the Mavericks with concerted efforts, was suddenly closed again by Su Feng.

And...

Su Feng even wanted to add a few more locks to this door.

American Airlines Center.

Davis finally handed over the timeout.

And after this timeout, even though it was very stupid, Davis decisively issued a death order to the Mavericks players to resolutely double-team Su Feng as long as he crossed the half-court.

At this moment...

In a trance...

Davis finally understood why there were so many people in the NBA who wanted to assassinate him and take his place back then.

Because...

Being able to coach Su Feng was indeed a thing that made people want to kill you.

"Shaq, go ahead...

Now, it's time for you to perform!"

And on the Heat's bench, seeing this, "New Zen Master" Riley, who had been practicing closed-mouth meditation for nearly half a quarter, also handed over his other trump card.

Inside the arena, taking advantage of a dead ball opportunity, Shaquille O'Neal returned to the court.

And this time...

What was slightly different from the first quarter was...

Mike Brown, who had always been very confident in his defensive tactics, discovered...

The connection between Su Feng and O'Neal that had been severed by the Mavericks in the first quarter...

Had actually been connected again!

On the court, the Heat attacked.

No need to call for a pick-and-roll.

No need to hold the ball either.

Relying solely on his powerful containment ability, Su Feng easily created a piece of ocean for his Shaq brother to roam freely in out of thin air!

How terrifying was Su Feng, who no longer cared about personal stats and only wanted to win the game?

At this moment, the Mavericks players had already felt this terror.

Because when O'Neal was positioned in the low post, at the moment when he received a high pass from his teammate...

Chandler, who returned to the court in the second half, was already isolated and helpless.

Was it because Chandler usually didn't get along well with the team, plus the other Mavericks players didn't want to win, so they didn't help Chandler double-team O'Neal?

No...

It was simply because...

The other Mavericks players couldn't help him at this moment.

On the outside, when the rest of the Heat players successively transformed into the human walls that Su Feng could use when running, in front of this man who had once created the highest single-game score in the NBA Finals by relying solely on off-ball play...

The Mavericks' defense was instantly thrown into chaos.

This was perhaps the most extreme "two" versus five in NBA history.

Davis was betting that the Mavericks' team offense could beat the Heat's star one-on-one play.

And Su Feng was also betting that his and O'Neal's personal strength could help them break through all defenses.

Of course, compared to that kind of idiotic two-versus-five...

At this moment, Su Feng didn't forget to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the other three Heat players on the court at this time.

Back in Philadelphia, in the process of supporting each other with Iverson, Su Feng learned how to be a green leaf.

And in Toronto, when Carter and others were slumping, Su Feng also learned how to single-handedly challenge the world.

Therefore...

At this moment.

Now.

On the court, it was both a perfect presentation of Su Feng's super personal ability, and a moment for the entire Heat team to show their cohesion.

"A team never exists for one person.

Especially as the leader of a team.

You must understand that your existence is for the entire team."

At the top of the arc, after Su Feng snapped his fingers, in the low post, O'Neal also broke through Chandler's defense at the same time.

And in front of the TV, when he saw this scene...

Kobe immediately felt uncomfortable.

Because once upon a time...

He and O'Neal had also trusted each other like this.

"Faced with the challenger's move, the king has already shown his sword.

So now the question is...

As challengers, do you still have the courage and魄力(po li) (courage and drive) to push the king to the brink?"

Boston, watching Su Feng and O'Neal, who were celebrating with high fives on the TV screen, Larry Bird said to himself.

"John, did you ever encounter such a dilemma when you were coaching Toronto?"

And in Miami, forcibly suppressing the trace of panic in his heart, Brown asked Davis, who was standing beside him.

"Of course." Hearing this, Davis nodded and said.

"Then if it were the Raptors back then, how would they fight such a battle?" Brown continued to ask.

And on the sidelines, after pointing to the player wearing the Mavericks' No. 41 jersey on the court, Davis said, "Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, and the king... naturally has to face the king."

In the second quarter, because the Heat's defensive intensity was too high, even Kidd didn't dare to organize too complex offenses in order to avoid mistakes.

Therefore...

In this scoring battle, if Dirk Nowitzki couldn't show a level that could match Su Feng and O'Neal...

Then this Mavericks team would not have any hope of defeating this Heat team.

On the court, the Mavericks attacked.

After receiving a pass from Kidd, Nowitzki pulled up and shot from beyond the three-point line, facing Haslem.

This shot, with more than ten seconds left on the shot clock, the Little Driver didn't need to shoot so anxiously.

But after he resolutely shot this three-pointer for the Mavericks...

On the sidelines, Davis calmed down instead.

Because tonight...

On this best stage...

Faced with the invitation issued by Su Feng...

Swish!

Dirk Nowitzki...

Had come to the appointment!

Moreover, in addition to bringing his determination...

This time, Nowitzki also brought Howard, Finley, Kidd, Terry, and others.

In the second half of the second quarter, in the alternating lead between the Heat and the Mavericks...

In front of the TV, countless neutral fans had already been impressed by these two teams with completely different styles, but equally great teams.

58 to 58.

At halftime, relying on the Little Driver's rebounding touch, and the outstanding performance of the other Mavericks players who were successively driven by him, the Dallas Mavericks successfully withstood the alternating bombardment of Su Feng and O'Neal.

And relying on Su Feng's crazy killing in the second quarter, and O'Neal, who reconnected with him, wreaking havoc in the Mavericks' restricted area, the Miami Heat erased the 7 points they were behind in the first quarter.

TNT TV station, at halftime, Barkley said with great emotion, "In my mind, this is the best Finals in NBA history!"
