On April 25, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued in full swing. The Heat, who are currently 2-1 in the first round of the playoffs series, maintain a lead, ushered in the G4 game at the Home of the Hawks. The league has never been willing to admit that the Heat have the same ability to compete for championship trophies this season. But after one game after another, it has been proved that their strength is indeed not to be underestimated. The team's star Butler once again played the style of a tough guy in the league, and Hiro on the bench continued to play the role of a scoring wizard.
At the same time, defensive striker PJ Tucker continues to play the residual heat, and when he does his job, he can also alleviate the pressure on the team's scoring end to a certain extent. In fact, although Trae Young completed the throw in the G3 battle and continued to retain the suspense of the series, it is obviously not so easy to continue to pull back a city. From beginning to end, although the Heat have not been optimistic, they have proved their ability to compete for the championship with one victory after another.
In this G4 battle, the Heat have indeed shown their stable and sustained output again. In the first half of the competition, even though the Eagles were able to rely on the team's players to play a high-level state, Shunshi delivered a 26-25 score in the first quarter. But after entering the second quarter of the showdown, they fell into a scoring drought, and at one point let the Heat, who seized the opportunity, play a wave of 30-15 scores. Trae Young's form was poor, Capela's comeback didn't work, and the Hawks trailed the Heat by a crucial 14 points in the first half.
In the second half of the competition, the Heat, who took the lead, did not give the Eagles a chance to fight back, further widening the point difference between the two teams. Trae Young's form was still bad, playing 12 minutes of the game in the third quarter, and the friend had 1 rebound and 2 assists, allowing the Heat, who seized the opportunity, to deliver a 25-20 score again. The point difference was widened to nearly 20 points, and the Heat's victory in the game was imperative. In the final quarter of the decider, the Heat did not have a soft heart, with butler's data of 12 points, 3 rebounds and 2 steals in a single quarter, it played a 30-25 score.
In the end, the Heat scored a 24-point victory with a score of 110-86. Looking back at the game, the overall performance of the Hawks side was terrible, and the team's star Trae Young failed to show a big heart, with only 9 points, 1 rebound and 5 assists. At the same time, Capela, who has just returned from injury, has not been able to continue to send two double-doubles, playing only 21 minutes, only 2 points and 7 rebounds. With 14 players rotating and only 2 players scoring in double digits, it's really hard to win.
On the other hand, the Heat, who won the game away, scored in double figures for the starting five Tigers, and Butler even handed over a luxurious stat of 36 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. Not only that, but Oladipo, who played as a substitute, also effectively helped the team. Also just coming back from injury, Oladipo was able to play 6 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the 23 minutes off the bench, playing a statistical performance of Jokic and helping the team to win the opponent's key 28 points! It's said the data doesn't lie, but the ostensible data clearly doesn't show that Radipo helped the Heat.
