After three consecutive defeats, the Hornets, who are in desperate need of a victory, have regained their strength at home and ushered in the Heat's challenge.
In the Hornets, the main players are out of the nest, and the team has the home advantage, and the whole team can be said to be ready to defend the home field and end the losing streak.
On the other hand, on the Heat side, Hiro is in hot form, the big three Butler + Adebayo + Lowry are gradually getting better, and the Heat are also ready to do a big job on the road and take away 2 consecutive wins!
Finally, after four quarters of play, with Bridges + three goals of excellent play, the Hornets, who played at home, in the first half, although they overpowered the Heat, once occupied the initiative on the field.
But after returning from the second half, Butler + Adebayo ushered in the outbreak in the third quarter, and the Heat took advantage of the momentum to play a wave of 35-8 offensive frenzy in the single quarter, instantly reversing the situation on the court.
Coupled with the final quarter of the showdown, Taylor Hiro continued to firepower, shooting a single quarter to score 11 points, helping the Heat to take advantage of the chase and completely end the suspense of the game.
In the end, the Heat also won 104-86 on the road to the Hornets, which was worth the trip to win 2 consecutive wins, but also gave the opponent Hornets 4 consecutive defeats!
This game rushed to the away, although the Heat once fell into a passive situation of falling behind in the score, but fortunately, the team did not mess up and finally completed the reversal.
In the case of lowry + Taylor Hiero and other main players, continuing to perform steadily, the two core Butler + Adebayo who jointly cut down the 47 + 18 played a crucial leading role!
Butler was very efficient in this game, starting 28 minutes, shooting nearly 80% of the 13 shots and 10 shooting, and it was a game-high 27 points, plus 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block.
Among them, his brave performance of taking 12 points alone in the first quarter not only helped the Heat to open the situation smoothly, but also became a difficult existence for the Hornets to solve!
Of course, the Heat were able to win big in this game, and the performance of the team's interior line Adebayor was also indispensable.
Adebayor was well defensively and defensively, starting 26 minutes and delivering an all-around performance of 20 points, 12 rebounds , 3 assists + 3 steals + 2 blocks on 7-of-21 shooting.
And in the third quarter, he scored a key performance of 10 points in the single quarter, not only leading by example, leading the Heat to complete the counterattack, but also completely disrupting the Hornets' offensive and defensive rhythm, successfully affecting the trend of the game!
On the other hand, on the Hornets side, the team collapsed in the third quarter, and finally swallowed the 18-point rout + 4 consecutive defeats, which obviously disappointed the home fans.
In the case of bridges + three goals + plumlee and other main players, each performing their duties, the play of Rozier + Hayward + Oubre in this game really needs to be examined!
Although Rozier scored a team-high 16 points, plus 6 rebounds and 1 assist, rationally speaking, his as many as 5 mistakes in the game still allowed the Hornets to waste a lot of good opportunities to chase points.
And this game against the Heat, Hayward is also slightly crotch, the first 20 minutes of the game, 7 shots 0 feel cold, not to mention, the whole game did not score the score, only handed over 3 rebounds + 2 assists data.
Coupled with The sluggish state of Oubre, only 3 of 15 shots in the whole game, only 1 of 9 outside three-pointers completely lost the crosshairs, and failed to continue the firepower for the Hornets, the performance of Hayward + Oubre in this campaign is indeed somewhat unsatisfactory!
In the face of the huge gap in the strength and depth of the lineup, the Hornets generals who collapsed in the third quarter seemed to be able to accept the reality of the team's 4 consecutive defeats!
