After the fourth quarter began, Brezec and Perkins completely ignored the rest, focusing solely on defending against O'Neal, but they still couldn't stop him.
O'Neal went on a rampage, battering the Bobcats' interior defense.
After drawing Gerald Wallace into the double-team as well, O'Neal's job was done. With no Gerald Wallace to interfere, the shooters on the wings had a clearer view, and Wade found better penetration opportunities, sending Miami Heat's offense soaring!
In half a quarter, Miami Heat surged with 20 points, limiting the Bobcats to just 8 points.
87 to 83, Miami Heat took a 4-point lead over the Bobcats heading into the official timeout!
It could no longer be dragged out, Bickerstaff subbed in Felton, Zhang Yang, and Okafor!
After listening to the tactical arrangement, Zhang Yang took off his practice clothes and warmed up.
Old Bickerstaff truly had courage!
