Chapter 515: Sun Yue's Dominance on the Defensive End
In their opinion, the strength of the Magic team is indeed not bad, but it is still far worse than the Bucks, if someone says before the game that the Magic will draw with the Bucks on the Bucks' home court, these Bucks fans will definitely scoff, what are the jokes, the Bucks are destined to crush the existence of the Magic, how can it be a tie!
But now the first quarter is over, and the score of the two teams is tied!
……
During the intermission, the faces of the Magic bench were extremely ugly, and when Li Tuanjie did not appear for a minute in the first quarter, they could only draw with their opponents, and the result of this game was very unacceptable to them!
At the end of the short intermission, the two sides returned to the court, and the Bucks still came up with a second lineup, while the Magic didn't dare to put Howard off the court to rest......
Sessions also returned to the court, while Rashad Lewis and Turkoglu were rested after almost three full quarters of the first quarter!
Magic's such a lineup is also extremely competitive, first of all, the center is a great advantage for the Bucks, and fortunately, Hammer Gortat has an extremely tough style of play, facing off against the monster Howard, he is not afraid, even if he can't stop Howard from receiving the ball or competing for offensive rebounds, he will try his best to send Howard to the free throw line!
In this game, Howard's free throw shooting rate was about 50%, which is his normal level of play!
……
When the second quarter was three minutes into the game, Li Tuanjie called a timeout and directly sent the first team back to the court!
The second team plays for five or six minutes, and then the first team plays for about nine minutes, which can ensure that any player on the floor can maintain full fitness!
The Magic side also brought Rashad Lewis and Turkoglou, who had just rested for a long time, on the court, and the two sides were in a matchup between starters.
The duel between the two starters is extremely fierce, and Marc Gasol is also desperate, he has been the starting center of the Bucks for a whole season, and with the Bucks becoming the ruler of the league, Mark Jr. naturally has his own pride!
But now this pride is shattered by the Warcraft Howard, and Mark Jr. is completely suppressed by Howard on both the offensive and defensive ends, which makes Mark Gasol extremely unhappy!
In the unhappiness, he naturally fought against Howard desperately, although he was still not Howard's opponent in the confrontation, but it could also greatly consume Howard's physical energy!
Don't forget, the Bucks have two reliable centers on the Masat side, Marc Gasol and Gortat, while there is only one Howard on the Magic side.
In the first half of the game, the Magic relied on the strong offensive ability of the starting lineup and the advantage of the penalty area, and the score was slightly ahead, leading by three points at the end of the half, with a score of 51:48.
Although the opponent is ahead, Li Tuanjie is not in a hurry at all, he has fought with Howard a lot of times, he knows that Howard is in an extremely difficult situation now, Mark Gasol's strength is not weak, Howard wants to occupy a conspicuous advantage in the confrontation with Little Mark, he must do his best!
In this way, Howard's physical consumption speed is much greater than in previous games, and Li Tuanjie does not believe that Howard can play more than forty minutes in this game!
Although Li Tuanjie is in his chest, those fans who pay attention to the Bucks are extremely anxious, and the Bucks are actually behind in the score?!
At the start of the second half, Li Tuanjie asked Marc Gasol to rest and send Gortat on the court, he was going to use the wheel battle to consume Howard in turn!
As the game time continued, Howard's physical fitness was greatly challenged under the consumption of the two second-tier centers, and Howard had to do his best in every duel with these two second-tier centers!
In addition, the Bucks are also intentionally or unintentionally using shark cutting tactics against Howard, resulting in an extremely slow pace of the game and a really low viewing experience......
After the third quarter of the game, Howard played the whole quarter of the game, although he also wanted to take a break, but he knew that he must not get off the court, once he did, his own situation would be over......
At present, the Magic is still leading by four points, and Howard has played 32 minutes in this game now, scoring 27 points on 8-of-12 shooting, with 13 rebounds and 3 blocks!
Howard scored 27 points after only scoring 8 two-pointers, which means that Howard scored 11 points from the free throw line in the first three quarters!
For other players, a lot of free throws is obviously a good thing, because there is no more consistent way to attack in a game than free throws!
Not so for Howard, who would rather carry two men to the free throw line than go to the free-throw line......
11 free throws scored, but Howard used up 23 free throws!
In detail, although Howard has an extremely high shooting percentage on paper, his offensive efficiency can only be regarded as average......
If it were a player who made good free throws and could still make 23 free throws on 8-of-12 shooting, he would have already scored more than 35 points......
By the end of the third quarter, Gortat had five fouls!
In the fourth quarter of the game, Howard was consumed in turns, and there was a lot of physical problems, although he only played 32 minutes of game time, Howard felt more tired than playing the full 48 minutes!
Physical fatigue is accompanied by a decrease in efficiency on the field!
Three minutes into the final quarter, the scores of the two teams were re-equalized!
Li Tuanjie did not stand on the sidelines this time, but sat comfortably on the bench, in his opinion, the overall situation has been decided!
Sure enough, little Mark, who has always maintained full physical fitness, began to fall behind in the confrontation with the physically exhausted Howard, and the Bucks' starting outside line originally had an advantage against the Magic players!
As a result, the Bucks' score began to rise and gradually overtook the Magic!
Bucks fans finally settled down in their hearts, although they didn't know why Li Tuanjie didn't play in this game, but they saw that the scores of the two teams were gradually pulled apart, and they were also waiting to win the game!
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Bucks won the second round of the Eastern Conference semifinals by 7 points!
Li Tuanjie sat on the sidelines, he was simply happy, and his title advanced task was completed again, and now the title system has advanced to the C level, and he can add eight points of all attributes to the body!
After this advancement, as long as you come twice, Li Tuanjie will open another hidden attribute!
In this game, the reason why the Bucks were able to win was that Li Tuanjie also contributed to it!
Don't forget, Li Tuanjie's hidden passive skill can borrow attributes from hosts that are stronger than himself, and those teammates who are weaker than him, Li Tuanjie can also improve their strength!
The weaker the strength, the more attributes to improve, the current Bucks players are definitely quite far behind Li Tuanjie, like Li Tuanjie does not look at personal honors, only looks at personal ability, Li Tuanjie is definitely the first person in the league who deserves it!
And Li Tuanjie's teammates, Artest and Reed, are at the level of the All-Star bench, both of whom can borrow three percent of the full attributes from Li Tuanjie, and players like Sun Yue can borrow even more attributes, as high as eight percent!
How many attributes does Li Tuanjie have for eight percent?! It is equivalent to making Sun Yue's every attribute increase by about eight points, which is definitely a qualitative improvement!
"This borrowing skill is really powerful, and the effect is definitely much stronger than the dislocation advantage, not only can you improve your strength, but also make your teammates stronger, so that if you participate in the plane team league in the future, it will definitely be a big killer skill!" Li Tuanjie is very satisfied with the effect of taking advantage of this skill!
"The attributes of the first two hidden skills are extremely good, and I don't know how effective the third hidden skill is, presumably the effect will definitely not be worse than the first two!" Li Tuanjie is extremely looking forward to the third hidden skill!
The only thing that makes Li Tuanjie a little unwilling is that this season is coming to an end, and according to the current situation, it is difficult for him to advance the title system by two levels in a row at the end of the season!
……
At the end of the game, the players on both sides began to leave, Li Tuanjie stepped forward and high-fived his teammates one by one, the performance of his teammates in this game was extremely powerful, and everyone's data was good!
Starting lineup: Marc Gasol played 28 minutes in this game, cutting 12 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, in terms of data, it is definitely not as good as Howard's 33 points, 17 rebounds and 4 blocks, but no one dares to underestimate Marc Gasol's performance in this game, he did not fall behind in the final quarter with Howard!
Paul Millsap, who contributed 16 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist in this game, showed great potential on the offensive end!
Artest focused more on the defensive end in this game, and the offensive performance was not too good, only 10 points, but the defensive end had 3 steals and 2 blocks, which was really exciting!
As for the pure scorer Reed, because the feeling of this game is not too good, he decisively reduced the number of his shots, in fact, if Li Tuanjie was not present, Reed would be the boss on the court, but he did not rely on his identity to fight for the right to shoot, and when he felt bad, he took the initiative to reduce the number of shots, so that the Bucks generals respected the veteran in their hearts.
Reed contributed 14 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists in this game.
And finally Rondo, the feel of Rondo...... Well, it's never been better, he shot four times in this game, only hit one, and only hit one of the two free throw opportunities, and finally only scored three points, but the assist data is extremely dazzling, and he got 12 assists in this game, which is also quite amazing!
The starting five on the Bucks' side, all of them have double-doubles in statistics, four have double-doubles in scoring, and one assists in doubles!
However, the starting five scored not very high, only 57 points were scored, the Bucks scored a total of 98 points in this game, and the remaining 41 points were all scored by the second team.
On the bench, Gortat played 20 minutes in this game, and the statistics were not too good, with 5 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 5 fouls......
But in terms of consuming Howard, Gortat contributed more than Marc Gasol, his very tough style of play, every card position is like a battle, which makes Howard very headache.
Veteran Grant Hill, who served as the center of the second team, contributed 15 points, 3 rebounds and 7 assists, which is hard to believe that this is a 37-year-old veteran.
Thaddeus Young, a player, is the biggest feature is stability, and he also scored 7 points in this game in a limited playing time!
Little Steel Cannon Lowry, who played about 15 minutes in this game, got 10 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, and his performance was really good!
Finally, it is Li Tuanjie's compatriot teammate Sun Yue!
Sun Yue played about the same time as Lowry in this game, and it was about fifteen minutes, and he scored 4 points.
With the blessing of Li Tuanjie's attributes, Sun Yue's original physical fitness, strength and other shortcomings have all been strengthened, which has also caused Sun Yue to become much stronger in terms of confrontation, at least the substitute lineup against the magic can occupy some advantages!
Coupled with his own height and long arms, Sun Yue got 2 steals and 2 blocks in the matchup in this game, which surprised Li Tuanjie!
Domestic fans also applauded Sun Yue's performance, and in the Eastern Conference semifinals, he was able to contribute 4 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 2 blocks in 15 minutes, which is really enough to blow a wave!
If it's garbage time, if you brush this data, there's nothing to brag about, but at the moment there is no garbage time in this game, and the winner is not determined until the end of the game, Sun Yue's performance on the defensive end of this game is obvious to all, absolutely eye-catching!
Seeing Sun Yue's performance, Li Tuanjie was more determined in his heart to exercise Sun Yue's physical fitness, he knew that Sun Yue's good performance on the defensive end today was not for nothing, that is, he borrowed his own attributes, if there was no improvement in the eight attributes, Sun Yue would not have had such a big advantage on the defensive end.
Not only that, but this game Sun Yue also made Li Tuanjie see the cultivation value of him!
Prior to this, Li Tuanjie was actually very entangled in Sun Yue's heart, because in other planes, although Sun Yue also entered the NBA, he never proved himself, and Li Tuanjie didn't know how many catties and taels Sun Yue had.
But Sun Yue's performance in this game proved his potential, as long as his physical fitness keeps up, with his height, arm length and desperate attitude on the defensive end, it will definitely be of great use!
Li Tuanjie smiled with satisfaction, although he did not appear in this game, the gain was extremely huge!
PS: Brothers, absolutely powerful, haha, yesterday's recommendation ticket broke the record since the book was opened, and the monthly ticket also rushed directly from eighth to second! Thank you, brothers!
