NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 224
After four wins against Green Kai, the Bobcats, which had already won four consecutive games, completely got rid of the shadow of seven consecutive losses.

"Ramon may not be able to play again this season." The team doctor's deep voice rang in Mike Dunlap's ear.

"You mean, reimbursed for the season?" Dunlap asked subconsciously with a frozen expression.

"Yes." A simple word cast a shadow over Dunlap's heart.

During the previous four-game winning streak, Sessions, whose knee frequently gave out signs of injury, had a rest. After the battle with Green Kai, Sessions, who originally thought he was recovering well and had no serious problems, felt a few minutes after jumping on the bench during the substitute period. End of discomfort.

After the game, the team doctor accompanied Sessions to a professional medical institution for a detailed examination. The information obtained dealt a major blow to the bench gangster firepower that the Bobcats relied on this season.

Ramon Sessions and Gordon, who transferred from the Lakers during the offseason, formed a powerful firepower on the Bobcats' bench. Sessions averaged 27 minutes per game this season and contributed 8+14+4 with high efficiency. Not high but the effect is crucial.

On March 3, Dunlap announced the news to media reporters and fans during an interview before and after training against the Wizards.

"Damn, Ramon is gone. Kemba, Gerrard, Ramon and Ben, our back line, which was just about maintaining a fragile balance, suffered a heavy blow." The first reaction of team reporter Bonnier reflected this. How bad the news is.

However, the game continued, and the Spectrum Center Arena, which accommodated 1 Bobcat players that night, still started as usual.

The Wizards, who were defeated at home in Washington nearly 10 days ago, were very aggressive in this game. Wall was so fast that he threw himself towards the basket and made 9 free throws, almost all of which were made, scoring 25+5+5; Nene showed toughness against the white inside team of McRoberts and Mullens, and scored a rare 20 points this season.

However, the Bobcats have Chen Xiao as a basic inside player. Facing the old-fashioned Okafor, he still plays steadily to gain an advantage. Today, Charlotte Deng effectively played 7% of the field goal percentage and scored 19 points. Hender played well. Sen, Walker, the Bobcats still won the opponent steadily.

The Bobcats were "missing one of the three" on the perimeter, scoring a total of 40 of 23 points and scoring 60+ points, with a shooting percentage of 57.5%, which gave the fans reassurance.

Faced with another wave of ruthless killings from the Eastern players in the Northeast and even the North, the Bobcats, who defeated the Wizards, Raptors, and Pistons, extended their winning streak to the seventh game.

After seven consecutive victories, the Bobcats, with 46 wins and 24 losses, will be firmly ranked second in the Eastern Conference. As for first place, obviously the only other player in the Eastern Conference besides the Bobcats is the Heat.

The Heat, currently 54 wins and 14 losses, stand proudly at the top of the Eastern Conference.

After losing to the Bobcats again in early February, it is said that the Heat's Big Three convened a player meeting with the players after the game. The content of the meeting is unknown, but since then, the Heat have soared.

They defeated the Rockets, defeated the Clippers, defeated the Lakers, destroyed the Thunder, the Grizzlies, the Knicks, and the Pacers, all of which were won by the exciting Heat.

在轻取活塞后，热火已经拿下23连胜，而这也让这支三巨头率领下的2012至2013赛季的迈阿密热火队超过2007至2008赛季创下22连胜的马赛克队，独享NBA历史上第二长的连胜记录。

Starting from the thrilling 3-point victory over James' old team, the Cavaliers, in the last game, the Heat tied their 22-game winning streak and surpassed the Pistons to take second place.

There has been overwhelming publicity in the media, and the mention of the 22-game winning streak of the Yao-Mai combination has also made Chinese fans remember the 5-game winning streak that moved the fans back to 08 years ago in 22.

The 22-game winning streak led by Yao and Mai was an unforgettable memory for Chinese fans. Yao Ming showed off his power and Yao and Mai combined to push the record to 12 consecutive wins. When the fans were rejoicing and looking forward to a better future, bad news came. Yao Ming He suffered a stress fracture in his left foot and was ruled out for the season.

"I know my season is cancelled, but what I told the team doctor is that I must ensure my Olympics." Yao Ming, who cares about the national basketball team and the Olympics at home, chose surgery that will affect the length of his career, which will also pave the way for early retirement in the future. Foreshadowing was laid.

Then Mosaic, which lacked inside pillars, did not stop there. Four players defeated the Nuggets with 4 points and 16 consecutive victories, tying the team's winning streak.

In the last game of the 22-game winning streak, Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant faced off at their peak, but the two sides presented an iron fight for the fans. Kobe Bryant's touch was not good, but he would not stop taking shots. He took 33 shots and only scored 11 goals; McGrady made 16 of 4 goals. , had a poor touch and handed more ball rights to his teammates. The street ball king Alston lived up to expectations and made 22 of 10 shots. He scored a game-high 31 points, helping Mosaic defeat the Lakers and win a team record that nearly half of the original record. Longest winning streak - 22 consecutive wins.

……

Just as it happened, on March 3, the Heat, who had set the second longest winning streak in NBA history, were at home to face the Bobcats with great momentum. This time, the Bobcats ranked below them were serious challengers.

They had just narrowly defeated the Pistons the day before and had no rest time. The Bobcats immediately embarked on the journey and came to Miami back-to-back. Fortunately, Charlotte and Miami are only separated by an ocean, so they are relatively close.

"Dwyane Wade will miss this game due to knee soreness. LeBron James and the united Heat soldiers vow to complete the revenge." Middleton's ups and downs voice sounded in the bus.

"What kind of revenge? Isn't the fourth game in April?" Walker, whose clear dream was disturbed, uttered nonsense in a daze. It seems that in his dream, he has defeated the Heat again. Maybe at this moment Walker thought he was sitting It's the bus back to Charlotte. Anyway, the two places so close are all buses.

Regardless of Walker's nonsense, Wade's absence is objectively a benefit to the Bobcats. Once Wade Sessions arrives, the Bobcats obviously take advantage, but Josh Roberts, who has been keeping Mullens on the bench since the trade, He was also unwell and unable to play in this game. It was 2 for 1. The Bobcats took advantage of the game.

……

This game between the Bobcats and the Heat has undoubtedly become a live broadcast game on TNT. The live broadcast has started early before the start of the game, and the commentary team has begun to chat and build momentum for the game.

"Welcome to watch another showdown with the strongest showdown in the Eastern Conference brought to you by TNT. The Miami Heat accept the challenge from the Charlotte Bobcats at home. The Heat, currently 54 wins and 14 losses, lead the Bobcats, who have 46 wins and 24 losses, by a full 4 games. In the game At the end of March, which ended less than a month ago, it can be said that we already have an advantage in the competition for the top spot in the Eastern Conference. However, including this game, the two teams have one more direct meeting. Maybe the Bobcats can create a miracle." Ernie commented on the current situation between the two teams. team's record.

“Let’s talk about the Heat’s 23-game winning streak. From their 2-point victory over Mosaic on February 6 to their victory over the Pistons yesterday on March 6, the Heat’s 3-game winning streak currently ranks second on the team’s winning streak in league history. Second only to the 22-23 season, Chamberlain led the Los Angeles Lakers to win 1971 consecutive games. As the leader of the Miami Heat, he played in all 1972 games. LeBron James, who made outstanding contributions, also used his comeback to help the team win consecutive games. At the beginning, James laid the foundation with his outstanding performance. He shot 33+ points in six consecutive games with a shooting percentage of over 23%, surpassing the 'Prophet' Moses Malone and becoming the No. 30 in history.

In a battle with the Kings at the end of February, King James scored 2 points and 40 assists. The 16 assists were also a new high in his NBA career. In addition, James, who has the best three-point performance in his career this season, played against Philadelphia on March 16. Among them, the two three-pointers he hit also made his number of three-pointers in his NBA career exceed the 3 mark.

In addition, just last week, LeBron James, who led the Heat to victory in 4 games and averaged close to 30+10+10 per game, defeated Chen, who led the team to victory in 3 games and scored a career-high 44 points in a game with the Celtics. Xiao won the Eastern Conference Player of the Week. Of course, in February, James became the second player in the Eastern Conference this season to win the Best Player of the Month after Chen Xiao. "

Okay, Barkley, O'Neal and others who were in the studio couldn't help but nodded after listening to Ernie's long speech. Ernie Johnson still did a solid job in preparation.

"OK, Ernie, LeBron will thank you. You spent three full minutes to promote our little emperor. Of course, these are real achievements. I will not refute it." Seeing Ernie open his mouth to speak. , Barkley lowered his hands to predict and replied: "But let's go back to the winning streak. I have to say that the Miami Heat are very lucky."

"Hey, Charles, coming back from being behind by double digits in three consecutive games and coming back by 55 points in three games cannot be summed up by the word lucky." Kenny retorted as he shouldered Ernie's gun.

"Wait, wait, Kenny, I'm not talking about the process of winning, but the schedule. The Heat were lucky to meet the Charlotte Bobcats after 23 wins." Barkley shrugged and said solemnly.

Bob's tone was solemn, but in the eyes of the Heat supporters and fans in front of the screen, he looked very unbeatable. What, the implication was that the Bobcats' winning streak would have to end if they encountered it?I was lucky enough not to encounter the Bobcats in advance and won 23 consecutive victories, surpassing Mark Sai's 22 consecutive victories.

You're right, that's what Barkley meant: "The winning streak started with losing to the Bobcats, and the winning streak ended with losing to the Bobcats."

Seeing Barkley's "outrageous talk", O'Neal, his old rival on the show, shook his head and laughed without saying a word. Among the media reporters was Barkley, a die-hard supporter of Chen Xiao. He was making great strides with the Heat, while the Bobcats once lost consecutive games and were currently on the losing end of the Heat. James's praises are the mainstream of basketball public opinion.

目前54胜14负的热火战绩可不仅仅是制霸东部，领先分部第二山猫数个胜场差外，还力压51胜19负的雷霆以及目前西部第一53胜16负的马刺，笑傲整个联盟。

As the playoffs approach, outside public opinion, especially ESPN and Heat-related media, have already made plans for the Western Conference Finals and even the Finals. The Thunder and Spurs will continue to decide the winner in the Western Conference Finals, or it will be a repeat of last year's Finals, and James will once again Teach young people how to win championships. So far this season, the Heat have not lost to the Thunder. I look forward to James putting his arms around Durant and saying "The future is yours" after the finals.

Either the Big Three are fighting against GDP. After five years, James, who is looking forward to meeting again, replied to Old Man Deng, "Yes, it's mine now."

Hey, that’s not right. We have the Western Conference Finals and the Finals, but what about the Eastern Conference Finals?Nets and Greencaps aside, the Bobcats, Knicks and Pacers are not worth mentioning, right?

The Knicks and James are suppressing Melo, and the Pacers, who are currently third in the Eastern Conference, are not good enough or too young.

As for the Bobcats, they are indeed the main sufferers of the Heat at present, but Chen Xiao is also young. Look, the seven-game losing streak has not come down all at once, and now there is no substitute firepower, which means the winning rate is even lower by half a percent. Maybe the young Bobcats with strong firepower will win in two games, but in a series of four, five or even six and seven games, the advantage lies with me, James, the Heat!

Praising the Heat, who have already won, and James, who is also winning personally, are the mainstream of public opinion. How dare an old boy like Fatty Ba say this, and risk his life?

……

"Byron Mullens, For Three~~!!" Buckley extended his voice and played a guest role as a live DJ.

Halfway through the first quarter, as Mullens hit a three-pointer from Chen Xiao, the away Bobcats already led the Heat by 23 points, 8:15.

Mike Miller's two three-pointers and Bosh's mid-range shot made up all the Heat's points in the first half.

"Good shot, Byron, just shoot it like this." Chen Xiao, who sent out an assist from Bosh and Haslem's double attack, returned to defense and praised Mullens, who was obviously a god in the first quarter today.

Josh Roberts is unable to play today, Mullens has plenty of time to perform, and the Bobcats also need him to contribute.

"Don't panic, Heat fans, there is no reversal without the Heat. They were behind by double digits in the first three games, and now they are 15 points behind. Just in time to trigger the reversal buff. Let's just wait and see!" When the team fell behind sharply in the first quarter, the Heat said The fans were panicking, but they were optimistic and that was all.

"King James, please work hard!" "Wade is absent today, and the Heat have to count on me, King James."

Fans were looking forward to it. At the end of the first quarter, James, who was playing the fourth position at this time, strode past Biyombo. He stepped on the sideline of the paint area and leaned back slightly to avoid Chen Xiao's outstretched arm and hit a jumper.

Later, Cole just picked up a defensive rebound in the backcourt, flicked it forward, and James, who was already under the basket, rose into the air and received the ball in the air for a slam dunk.

At this time, Chen Xiao, who had just returned to the three-point line, could only sigh, "I'm going to have to look at King James on the fast break!"
James worked hard in the second half of the quarter and scored 6 points in a row with sudden shots, but when he looked at the score difference, eh, 16 points, one more point.

With the last ball of the first quarter, Battier's three-pointer, the Heat led the Bobcats 20:33.

In the first half of the first quarter, Chen Xiao watched the show and listened to the music. The Heat was defeated by the performance of his teammates. The scene of cheering for Mullens loudly was still in front of him, but there were ups and downs, and the ups and downs were deep. Chen Xiao was right I have a deep understanding of this.

With his teammates playing so well and creating such a big point difference, Chen Xiao could not hold back. Chen Xiao, who had accumulated strength in the first half of the quarter, took advantage of the situation and exploded.

In the second half of the quarter, Chen Xiao took over the game and faced Bosh mercilessly. He hit Bosh's chest no less than 10 times on average, making Bosh miserable. He used hooks, throws, and basket attacks to "release" Basket, grabbed the rebound and made a second attack, scoring 10 points.
