Chapter 518: The Battle of Ideas
The confrontation between Erniu and Howard in the first quarter is, of course, the biggest attraction of the game. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
However, in the first quarter, there was someone else who really completed the mutual explosion on the offensive end and had the right to shoot to the maximum.
On the Magic side, it's Mr. Rashad Lewis, and on the Hawks side, it's the famous second-court shooter in the mouth of Celestial Empire fans - Josh Smith.
Lewis shot 4-of-5 from the field in the first quarter, including 3-of-4 from three-point range, for a total of 11 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist.
The lunar eclipse also did not blind the waves in the medium and long distance, and made solid use of air cuts and low backs to score points, shooting 5 of 5 in a single quarter, 2 of 2 free throws, and scoring 12 points and 3 boards.
Woodson may still not be happy with the eclipse, because on the defensive end, the eclipse gives Lewis too much room to make an easy shot.
But the Eclipse did shine on the offensive end, with two open cut goals that even forced the basket against Howard's defense.
Lunar Eclipse and Spark actually knew each other as early as kindergarten, both were born and raised in Atlanta, Spark was the top pick in the '04 draft, and Lunar Eclipse was selected by the Hawks with the seventeenth pick, plus Randolph Morris, a marginal man sitting on the Hawks bench, the three together formed the "Three Musketeers" of Atlanta High School basketball.
In fact, they can all be regarded as winners in life, because they set their ambition to enter the NBA at a very young age, and they successfully worked hard all the way on the road of life after that, and finally achieved their goals.
Lunar Eclipse once said during team training: "Dwight used to play point guard, yes, believe it or not, when we were about 11 or 12 years old. ā
When talking about this topic, lunar eclipses always laugh heartily. This Sagittarius man, like Spark, has a bit of a funny nature most of the time, but in fact, he has always had positive ambitions and hopes to become a better player.
At 30:28, the Hawks led the Magic at home by two points in the first quarter.
Ruan Erniu and Spark were a little quiet in the second half of the first quarter, each handing over the ball and letting their teammates dominate the game.
It is natural for the Sparks to do this, he has always been a point of containment on the offensive end of the Magic rather than the core of the organization, and Ruan Erniu does not take the initiative to control the ball, but puts more experience on defense.
The Magic's offensive system, after a season of training by Van Gundy, has become more and more mature.
It doesn't make sense to look at the current Magic team from last season, which is already a team with enough chemistry.
The difference is that the Eagles care more about the efficiency of offensive and defensive transformation, while the Magic is more traditional and emphasizes the opponent in the offensive and defensive offense and defense.
Yu Jia said in the studio: "Ruan Erniu had a very beautiful air reception performance in the first section, but he was not too excited, what do you think, Mr. Su?"
Su Junyang said: "In the Eagles' system, Ruan Erniu plays an extremely important role at both offensive and defensive ends.
We don't think he's getting excited enough to play, maybe it's just that he's putting more experience into defending and tandem teams.
He scored 6 points in a single quarter, which is not small, and against the Sparks, he was able to grab 8 rebounds and 2 assists, which proved that he played very well in the first quarter. ā
The guest commentary of the Celestial Empire is naturally a good thing to say about Erniu, but in fact, it is not much worse here in the United States.
Barkley was on the commentary seat and once again sent a hymn to Erniu: "One section has passed, Superman has flown over the metropolis, but the Celestial Empire monsters are still wreaking havoc on the ground. ā
Reggie Miller turned his attention elsewhere, looking at the technical stats and saying, "I don't care about the so-called No. 1 center battle, I'm just wondering if the two teams will set a new record for three-point shooting in a single game tonight."
You know, in the first quarter just past, the two teams took a total of 12 shots from beyond the three-point line, the Magic 7 times, and the Hawks 5 times, and if they played a full game, would they have made 50 shots?"
"So, what do you want to say? Reggie, you can't win a championship just by shooting from distance!" Barkley once again made his point clear.
Miller said, "Do you mean the Eagles now?"
Buckley paused, still refusing to admit it: "Who has a low-post killer and rebounding beast like Kraft Nguyen, who can win the championship with any tactic, you are confusing the concept!"
Miller laughed, "Okay, I reserve my opinion. ā
The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.
It's the same with basketball, if the three-point shot is really effective in improving the team's offensive efficiency, who will focus on training such skills?
If Ruan Erniu of the Hawks bench heard Miller's statement, he would definitely agree with his senior's idea.
This is not an alumni friendship, but Ruan Erniu really believes that three points will become the trend of the future.
Some things, when you look at them after a while, will taste a new taste.
For example, in the 07-08 season, in the Eastern Conference finals between the Hawks and the Celtics, on the surface, the Hawks relied on the "Raptors Raid" and dragged down the Celtics with super small-ball tactics, but in the real sense, what are the decisive conditions for pulling away the scores of the two teams?
In addition to Ruan Erniu's rebounds, it can only be embarrassing Sen's three-point shots.
That's the key to opening up the score between the two teams!
In 5 life-and-death battles, he averaged 4.2 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting rate reached a terrifying 42%+.
Of course, this has the great containment bonus of Erniu, but being able to seize the opportunity and throw the ball in fully illustrates the ability of the embarrassed Sen to win at critical moments and the huge influence of the three-point shot on the direction of the game.
Conversely, the only game the Hawks lost to the Celtics was when Pierce and Ray Allen combined for 10 three-pointers from beyond the three-point line.
After the Eastern Conference Finals, Ruan Erniu already had a general idea of next season's recruitment, which led to a seemingly unreasonable deal such as Marvin Williams replacing John Salmons.
This deal, once called brain-dead by countless experts this summer, believes that there must be an ulterior shady scene in it.
In reality, however, this was a signal for the Hawks to form a three-point team, and that's it.
From this point of view, it is understandable that the lunar eclipse wants to practice hard for three points.
In addition to physical conditions, in this era, if you want to become a superstar, you must have reliable shooting skills, but shooting also requires talent.
Erniu feels that the lunar eclipse should first remove his delusion of being an all-round pitcher, strive to find his reliable shooting point, and find his most efficient shooting range as soon as possible.
There are several ready-made examples in the NBA, such as Vince Carter, who likes to shoot three-pointers as he gets older, and this season, his three-point shooting rate has reached 38.5%, which is already the shooting rate of a first-class shooter, but when you look at the UFO shooting area, oh yes, there are only a few fixed points, and you can count them without one hand.
And, of course, there's Bruce Bowen, who almost demitheted the demigod into a mortal, and how did he come to be by shooting an astonishing 40 percent of his career three-point shots?
Now, among the names of this group of pseudo-three-point shooters, Kraft Nguyen, well, according to the practice of the Celestial Empire, he should be called the little prince of the top arc three-pointers!
