113. New Era

Wade poked his right shoulder forward, but his right leg strangely stepped forward to the left. Barnes subconsciously retreated to the back, but was deceived. Wade took a step forward and threw Barnes away, rushed into the penalty area like lightning, jumped and waved in the air.

"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the ball flying in the air was cut in half. The ball was shot down from the air like a meteor. Chamberlain's No. 0 jersey flew against the wind, using his terrifying interception ability to protect the Warriors' no-fly zone.

Haslem held the ball and played with the back. Chamberlain slowly stepped back with his arm on the back of the Haitian Water Demon. Haslem shook left and right, and turned around to the basket and beat the board.

"Bang!" Another muffled sound, and the ball flew down again. Chamberlain kept retreating and accumulating energy, waiting for this moment.

Penny Anfini Hardaway was dissatisfied and dragged his old legs to the bottom line and ran to the basket. He winked at Haslem first. After his teammates helped him get Chamberlain, he reached out to get the ball. However, to be on the safe side, he still left the penalty area before jumping.

Chamberlain, who had been stuck behind Haslem, took a step forward. The former was shocked and wanted to continue to stop him, but after Chamberlain crossed, he quickly pulled back his left foot, pushed Haslem hard and pushed him away, rushed out quickly from the right side, and rushed straight in front of Hardaway.

Like Hill, Penny Hardaway was also highly expected to be the successor of the gang leader. Both of them had no solution in the outside world during their peak years. Even if they were not as good as the gang leader Qiao, they had their own unique features. With the same fate, both of them were trapped by injuries and eventually became the most popular among the people.

Hardaway did not expect Chamberlain to react so quickly and move so quickly. He jumped up and was about to take action. He saw the opponent's overwhelming dark clouds coming towards him. He was a little hesitant when he was about to take action. In order to avoid being blocked, he subconsciously increased the starting point of the projection.

Although Chamberlain did not block Hardaway, the ball flew too high and finally fell on the basket's neck and bounced back. Chamberlain turned around, and Haslem tried to jump, but as soon as he was above his head, a strong long arm stretched out and took the ball from behind.

Fuck, isn’t this bullying? Haslem is crying without tears!

This mentality is also the mentality of all the Heat's inside players after O'Neal's exit. Not only did Chamberlain achieve perfect defense, but also began to show off his power on the offensive end, making his opponents miserable.

O'Neal's heavy pressure became the last key to unlocking Chamberlain's offensive shackles. His hard practice and hard learning over the past few days have exploded. His back-to-back singles at the basket have become very good, and his mid-range shots have also maintained a certain accuracy.

So, the fans of the American Airlines Center Stadium kept seeing such desperate scenes:

Chamberlain received the ball at the free throw line, and no one came to defend him, because he gave the opponents the impression that he was attacking, and knew nothing except dunks. As a result, Chamberlain jumped high, shook his wrist softly, and made a shot!

Chamberlain was about to get in place at the basket, and he received the ball with his back to Haslem. He struggled hard for a few steps, suddenly turned around and walked around the basket, raised his hand to hit the board, and hit it!

Ellis attacked with the ball, Chamberlain covered him and blocked Wade. After the misalignment occurred, Ellis passed the ball to him. Chamberlain got the ball and rushed to the inside line. Haslem and Dorrell Wright hurriedly came up to double-team. Chamberlain ignored the defense of the two, stepped into the penalty area, knocked away the two and made a violent dunk.

Haslem launched a candy-like press against Chamberlain. The latter reached out to block him, grabbed the ball with one hand and turned around suddenly, took one step forward and stepped over Haslem. The latter retreated quickly in shock. Chamberlain retracted his long legs and also stepped back quickly, stretched the distance, stabilized his body slightly, and jumped to the projection.

Hit! Hit! Hit! Hit or Hit!

In the third quarter, Chamberlain, who had no opponent, showed his power. He became the vanguard on both the offense and defense of the Warriors, and smashed the Heat's inside.

Haslem is the most unlucky one. He is much worse than Chamberlain in terms of height and weight. He was bullied against the latter. Chamberlain can beat him in the penalty area and still beat him at a high position. The confidence of the Haitians is gone. If there were no 20,000 fans on the court, he would probably cry out.

The Heat have no choice but to have no inside line, O'Neal needs to rest, and the fourth quarter is the time for a decisive battle. Another inside player Alonzo Mooning was put on the frozen roster a few days ago, with only one Haslem, which is not bad.

Pat Riley looked at a group of veterans on the bench, then looked at Chamberlain, who was full of energy, and began to shake his head in his heart. It was time for reconstruction. This god-author who looked like the godfather El Pacino secretly made up his mind that one era was over and he wanted to create another era with his own hands.

But who should I use to fight against this little Tyrannosaurus? Riley looked at Chamberlain, who was invincible on the court with some sorrow, and fell into depression for a moment.

He had a plan to rebuild the Heat in his mind, and this plan had certain feasibility, but the implementation of this plan would take a certain amount of time to buffer. He believed that once this plan was implemented successfully, it would definitely be a shocking moment. He was sure before that as long as this plan was implemented successfully, he would create a dynasty.

But today he was a little uncertain. Chamberlain's dominance in the penalty area was too strong, and he was so physically good, fast, tough, bouncer, and flexible. If he was allowed to develop abilities such as mid-range shots, long shots, and emergency stop jump shots, then he could dominate not only the penalty area, but also the outside.

Riley lacks a person who has dominance in the inside line. In fact, now all teams in the league are short of them. Those who have the inside line will win the world. How could the magician who has been in the league for 30 or 40 years not understand this truth?

Thinking of this, he looked at O'Neal and Mooning with regret. Any of these two people, ten years younger and kept healthy, would be absolutely easy to establish a dynasty with Wade on the outside.

Chamberlain set a new personal record in the third quarter. He scored 16 points in the inside and outside shots, which is his single-quarter scoring record. There is no doubt that he will be able to set his own single-game scoring record in today's game, and so far he has 34 points, and there are twelve minutes left before the end of the game.

In the fourth quarter, O'Neal returned without a doubt. The big shark looked at Chamberlain lazily with an expression of "You're going to be unlucky" and said, "Rookie, you only have these abilities, right? You can also get some points while I'm not here. Your good days are over, and Dad Shark is coming to teach you a lesson!"

Seeing O'Neal's huge body reappearing on the court, the fans in the Aviation Center Arena made excited cheers. They really made Chamberlain miserable in the third quarter. The team still had a 20-point advantage at the end of the first half. Under Chamberlain's leadership in the third quarter, they actually had only 4 points to catch up, which became 88:84.

O'Neal came on the court, Wade had to leave the game. The Flash fought for 36 minutes in a row, and the Iron Man couldn't stand this polishing, not to mention that he had been injured on his body, and his injuries were very severe, and he had not recovered now.

The cheers of Heat fans lasted only a few minutes before disappearing. They found in despair that the big shark O'Neal could no longer limit Chamberlain!

In just one quarter, it was impossible for O'Neal to recover his physical strength from overdrawing in the first half. After all, he is thirty-six or seven years old. As an insider, he should retire at this age.

If O'Neal had been a little more at ease, he might have been able to hold on for a longer time. The problem was that he was determined to teach Chamberlain a lesson in the first half and even had the strength to take care of himself. It was not that he was lazy but that he was really weak and powerless if he didn't play in the third quarter.

Chamberlain still looked so lively. Because he found the touch from the outside, he no longer just huddled in the inside, but kept running at high positions, helping his teammates cover, finding opportunities to shoot mid-range shots, and then entering the basket for a strong attack if he doesn't have the chance.

Without strength, even the Iron Man would have to become a pile of scrap iron. O'Neal had no majesty in the first half and turned into a pile of fat. He could cause trouble for Chamberlain. After all, it would be uncomfortable for anyone to hang 350 pounds of fat on his body, but he could not beat Chamberlain.

Ellis made a breakthrough with Chamberlain defeating O'Neal at the basket, and the Warriors tied the score. All the score advantages accumulated by the Heat in the first half were gone.

The fans of the Heat became nervous, and Pat Riley could only call for a timeout and replaced Wade, who was resting on the bench for a few minutes.

Old Nelson poured a bucket of oil on the fire, and he replaced the Warriors' youngest lineup, with Chamberlain leading O'Brient, Ellis, Azubuke and Louis on the field to play. This lineup is completely opposite to the Heat, where except for the Flash, everyone else in the latter lineup is over 34 years old, and they are all old guys.

The defense of O'Neal was replaced by O'Brient, and Chamberlain had to do was run wildly and ignite the fire when attacking.

The Warriors' attack rhythm suddenly increased, and Louis showed his lightning breakthrough and propulsion ability. Under his leadership, the Warriors players continued to speed up, dragging O'Neal and other old guys miserably.

At this critical moment, Wade stood up again and showed his strength as the contemporary leader of the zero-three golden generation. Azubuk's defense was like a sieve for Wade. Even though the latter was extremely tired, he stopped and jumped after the breakthrough. Wade made consecutive shots, stabilizing the Heat.

Old Nelson punched hard, which was an attack but not defense, and continued to speed up the pace of attack.

Louis passed the ball to Azubook, who broke through Wade, and the Flash used all his strength to do his best. This was really a battle rather than a simple game. He resisted Azubook's breakthrough and stabbed the ball in the latter's hand, picked up the ball and rushed to the frontcourt, and made a throwing shot.

The Warriors immediately returned one. Louis rushed to the frontcourt quickly. Chamberlain supported the free throw line. He broke through and passed the ball to the latter. After getting the ball, Chamberlain made a jump shot. Today, he felt hot on the outside, which made the Heat feel in panic. Seeing that he was going to make a mid-range shot, Haslem rushed out.
