Magic had a chance to counterattack, Roger rushed to get the rebound from Cage. If I'm going to be worn down without the ball, might as well go on the offensive with it.
Roger took the ball past the mid-court line, and still he had no intention of passing.
This game, Magic's offense had completely turned into one man against four spectators.
Brian Hill didn't like this kind of game, but the Heat's defensive strategy was to force Roger to do just that.
Chapman continued his mindless pressure, but Roger got past him with a wide cross-over move right in front of him.
Chapman himself was not much of a defender; they were indeed fierce and resolute, and dealing with them truly required top-tier talent.
Not to brag, but Roger happened to possess that top-tier talent.
Facing an offensive player with top-tier talent, just having the right attitude on defense is far from enough.
Having gotten past Chapman, Roger shot from just inside the three-point line.
5 to 6.
