Wade was interviewed
A fiasco is not the end of the series; a momentary disappointment is not the end of the world.
As the soul of the team, the pressure on Wade’s shoulders can be imagined, so how will he face difficulties and challenges?
On June 13th, , after losing Game 3 of the Finals by a huge margin, the pressure fell on the defending champion Miami Heat.
In an interview with the media today, Heat star Dwyane Wade admitted that the "Big Three" must lead by example for the rest of the game.
At the same time, he also believes that the Heat can rebound quickly in Game 4 of the Finals.
Dwyane, after you lost yesterday, why did everyone outside blame LeBron?
Did you talk to him about it after the game?
Can you tell me a little bit about your conversation?
Wade: Whether it is winning or losing, we are as a whole.
Everyone has their own opinion, we can’t control it.
As for the content of the conversation between me and him, I am sorry to have no comment.
Yesterday, the "Big Three" combined only scored 43 points.
Where are the other points going to come from if the three of you are confined to win the game?
Wade: We have to create as many scoring opportunities as possible, and this needs to start with the three of us.
Mike Miller’s performance was great yesterday, but other than that, we didn’t have many bright spots.
If the three of us can’t lead by example, the team can’t win a championship.
Team-mates are counting on us now, so we have to step up.
How do you evaluate the Spurs’ defense against you?
Did the first and second halves change your defensive strategy?
Wade: There is no change, they have always adhered to the inherent strategy.
In the process of guarding my pick and roll, they usually choose to let me shoot.
I was still able to break through the box and score occasionally, but overall the offensive opportunities were limited.
In addition, judging from the two games we lost, the aggressiveness in the second half was obviously insufficient.
Some teams will also let you shoot while defending the pick-and-roll, so is the Spurs any different from other teams in this regard?
Wade: There are some differences.
In fact, opponents usually choose to let me shoot when defending my pick-and-roll, and I’m used to it.
But when the Spurs defended LeBron’s pick-and-roll, they didn’t let him shoot every time.
For us, the biggest problem now is not only on the offensive end, some details need to be corrected in time.
When LeBron is in a downturn, how do you quickly adjust yourself?
Wade: First of all, I will definitely implement the plan made before the game.
Of course, while I remain aggressive, I will also create opportunities for my teammates in due course.
We won’t worry about LeBron, he will find his rhythm.
For you guys, how much weight does fatigue play in this round of the series?
Wade: We have enough lineup depth, so this is not a problem.
Since January this year, the Heat have not suffered a losing streak.
Do you think this is a "double-edged sword" for you?
Wade: I don’t think so.
Obviously, it’s a good thing that we are able to bounce back quickly from failure every time.
We got our ass kicked so hard yesterday so have to figure out how to play better next game and win.
Conclusion: In fact, in the third game of the finals, Wade showed signs of recovery, and the performance of the audience could not be said to be poor, but everyone is responsible for the disastrous defeat. James needs to change, and Wade must also make adjustments.
Whether that awesome Flash will return, we will wait and see.
