At 7:00 a.m. Beijing time on April 25, the first round of the NBA playoffs G4, the Heat challenged the Eagles away. In the first three games, the Heat temporarily took a 2-1 lead. However, the Heat did not dare to be careless. Their main point guard Lowry has a hamstring injury and is likely to miss out on the G4 game.
In G3, Lowry suffered a left hamstring injury and subsequently withdrew from the game. After the game, Lowry's status changed to daily observation. However, Lowry did not participate in the Heat's team training today, and he was still a bit limping when he walked. Given the Heat's title-winning goals, they are likely to give Lowry a truce in G4.
With Lowry truce, who can be his replacement? A lot of people think of Oladipo. Before the game, a reporter asked Spo this question. Spoo said he had everyone in mind. This means that Oladipo is expected to appear. Previously, in the series with the Hawks, Oladipo had not yet played.
Oladipo, 29, was a former fighter. He has won the League's Fastest Player Improvement Award, best defensive team and All-Star. However, due to injuries, his attendance in the past few years has not been high. After joining the Heat, Audi played only 12 games. Even if the attendance rate is not high, he still plays a lot of masterpieces. For example, in today's regular season finale against the Magic, Oladipo single-handedly scored 40 points.
In fact, many Heat fans are looking forward to Oladipo's appearance in the playoffs. But in the first 3 games, Spoo didn't give Oladipo a chance. Because the Heat and Fire soldiers are numerous, there are too many people available. Now that Lowry is injured, Spoo has found an opportunity to reactivate Oladipo.
