Chapter 630: The veteran is powerful
'It's good to be down 2-0, it's not the end of the world and we'll find a way to deal with it in the next games. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Starr Van Gundy is still reluctant to throw in the towel when he returns to Orlando, but his confidence in front of the media feels a little self-defeating.
In fact, he really wants to fight chicken blood, it is better to directly say that they will solve the Eagles in 6 games.
Of course, most fans understand the result of pretending to be unpressing.
Basketball and even competitive games are like this, pretending to be forced to be your uncle, if you don't pretend well, then wait for the wheel!
Just two hours after Dafan's declaration, the Magic's official website announced a piece of news that made Magic fans even more desperate, the team's main point guard Ralph Alston sprained his ankle in practice and will miss at least the G3 game.
As soon as this news came out, the majority of media and fans immediately felt that the Magic team was more than lucky!
The strength is not dominant, and then it is worse to hurt the main point guard, how can this game be played?
Not long after getting off the plane, the Eagles also got the news as soon as possible.
Lunar Eclipse smiled: "So we will end this series soon?"
But he shook his head and said, "Don't be careless, I don't think the game is so simple." Kraft, do you remember who the Magic's backup point guard was?"
"Do you think I'll forget? Anthony and Taryn were also our teammates last season. ”
Yes, maybe the crowd doesn't care, but the players do say hello to each other.
On the Magic's point guard bench, sitting was none other than the Hawks' No. 1 spot last season — Anthony Johnson and Tyronn Lue, who came to the Magic through trades and free market signings, respectively.
In the regular season, they played against the Hawks, but in the past G1 and G2, they didn't have much presence.
Anthony Johnson only got a little bit of playing space in garbage time and didn't cause too much trouble for the Hawks, while Tyronn Lue didn't even get a minute of playing time in the first two games.
Mike Woodson also reminded at the right time: "Don't underestimate the opponent, the Magic are one of the teams that beat us in the regular season after all, and they are in the top four in the East, and if we win G3, it means we will win the match point, which is something they will inevitably try to avoid."
By the way, you also have to be prepared to fight against the wind. ”
"Blow the penalty scale?" Dragic's perception is not ordinarily high, even in his rookie season, Dragon Ball has understood the unspoken rules of the NBA.
Woodson nodded: "It's only going to be more unfavorable than the scale of the first round of G3, you have to be prepared to be whistled in a row and control your emotions." ”
Ruan Er Niu then said as the leader of the team: "In the face of blows that are not in our favor, we can still win, this can prove how good our 73-win, all-time No. 1 team is, guys, let me create a big scene together!"
“HAWKS!”
“HAWKS!”
“HAWKS!”
……
At Amway Arena in Orlando, the Magic will announce their starting lineup early half an hour before the home game:
C Dwight Howard
PF Rashad Lewis
SF Siddo Tekoglu
SG Courtney Lee
PG Anthony Johnson
Sure enough, Alston's injury was not a smoke bomb, they really had to replace the veteran Anthony Johnson, and by the way, they also put JJ Redick, who had an excellent offense in the first two games, to the bench, with the obvious intention of increasing the defensive intensity.
"Dwight, are you ready to be swept away?" Before the Lunar Eclipse game, he stepped forward to talk to Sparks, after all, they were good friends who grew up in Atlanta together, and if someone else came over to joke with Warcraft, maybe it would have caused a conflict a long time ago.
"Do your own thing, J-Smoove, I'm going to kick your ass tonight. Spark smiled and pushed his friend away.
Sparks are such living treasures, even if they are cruel, many times, they will have a comedic effect.
Lunar Eclipse retreated, and continued to shamelessly provoke: "You'd better protect your chrysanthemum first, Kraft's 'big axe' has long been hungry and thirsty!"
Such violent words made Ruan Erniu, who was not far away, eager to beat the lunar eclipse, this idiot, the words came out of his mouth, it always made him feel embarrassed!
The first quarter of the game officially began.
For the first time in this series, Spark lost to Erniu in the jump ball session.
After getting the basketball, he directly controlled the ball over the half court, and the spark of the registered 6 feet 11 feet (211CM, the naked height should be 208CM) directly attacked Ruan Erniu, who was 6 feet 7 inches tall (actually 6 feet 9 inches, and the naked height was 206CM), and took a defense around the front.
Ruan Erniu immediately chose to cut into the air, but unfortunately the sparks waving his long arms interfered with Yu Sen's judgment, and the ball could not be sent out in the first place.
Embarrassment held the ball high and chose to go it alone after trying to pass the ball to no avail.
Facing Courtney Lee in one step inside the three-point line~~
"Bang!"
Didn't hit!
Erniu and Spark clicked on this rebound at the same time, and the basketball changed direction and was finally picked up by Turkogru.
The Magic's defense has really changed, and the sparks are rarely defended around the front, which can even be shown weakness and admit defeat in the duel of top centers.
Although Spark is not in tune, he is always an arrogant basketball genius, and being able to show weakness to the enemy is enough to prove that Ruan Erniu has brought great pressure to the magic and himself.
Hawks veteran Anthony Johnson received a pass from the Turk, possessed the ball across the halfcourt, and after taking advantage of Lewis's cover, hit the three-point line, shot from 16 feet and hit!
The old Eagles will be ordered to be in danger, but they seem to be extremely calm, and they have no intention of saving face for their old club.
For a league bum like Anthony Johnson, there has never been a concept of a home team. Because the management of the team has never treated them as an integral part.
The Eagles serve the baseline ball quickly and want to play a quick counterattack.
Salmons, who was running, was fouled by Courtney Lee just after halftime.
Stara Van Gundy on the sidelines nodded, preferring to foul rather than interrupt the opponent's counterattack rhythm, and the Magic's defensive tactics were quite resolute today.
Nguyen missed a straight arm jumper in the face of the sparks in the high post, and Lewis protected the backcourt rebound and passed to Anthony Johnson.
Johnson possessed the ball past half court and sent the ball to the Sparks, who chiseled on the inside and then distributed the ball to Lewis in the bottom corner, who distributed the ball to Turkoglou, who broke through and tore the defense with the ball, and then went to the unguarded Anthony Johnson.
"Brush!"
Johnson didn't relent, and the Hawks veteran hit a big two-pointer from the three-point line to help his team pull away.
On the offensive end of the Hawks, Salmmons received Bibby's breakthrough ball, and also unguarded, and made a three-point shot~~
"Bang!"
still missed, but fortunately, Erniu was clever under the basket, grabbed the rebound, and made the basket, otherwise the Hawks would still not be able to break through 0 points.
Woodson called a short timeout and a long timeout in the first quarter, but it didn't improve much on the Hawks' overall offense.
The proud offensive and defensive transition was interrupted by a foul from the Magic, but fortunately, the Magic only Anthony Johnson was more active on the offensive end, otherwise the score would have been pulled apart.
Ruan Erniu scored 6 points and 7 rebounds in a single quarter, which is already the highest single-quarter scoring player on the Hawks team.
At 18:22, tonight's Magic incarnated the Pistons, and they really did their best on the defensive end.
The referee's blowing penalty scale is quite normal, but the defending champion does face an unfavorable situation.
