Chapter 368: Nuclear Weapons Yi Jianlian
The Magic's home locker room was dead.
Even Stan Van Gundy was equally dignified.
The Magic trailed by nine points in front of halftime.
The nine-point deficit wasn't fatal, but the problem was that Stan Van Gundy didn't know how to play the second half.
As long as the Bucks keep insisting on playing "Warcraft" Howard, then the Magic team will basically not be able to win this game!
It is precisely because there is no way that the atmosphere in the whole locker room is so heavy.
However, Stan Van Gundy is not an inexperienced head coach, he can be frustrated for a while, but he will definitely not be depressed forever, and after a brief period of self-calm, he began to formulate the Magic's style of play in the second half.
"If we want to win, we have to shoot from the outside!"
"As you can see in the second quarter, the Bucks basically focused all their attention on Dwight, and that's right, Dwight, you start the second half and continue to strengthen your individual offense, so that the Bucks think that our style of play in the second half has not changed in the second quarter, and after the first timeout, we immediately change our style of play, from Dwight's strong play to outside projection!"
"Believe me, no matter how good a team is, it's going to be hard for them to adapt to this change of pace for a while!"
The players of the Magic team listened to Stan Van Gundy assign tasks without saying a word, and there was no change at first, but when Stan Van Gundy asked for outside shooting, several Magic players, including Nelson Jr., frowned unconsciously, and they still resisted shooting three-pointers.
But Stan Van Gundy encouraged them throughout the first half, and they really didn't say anything at this point, so they all nodded silently, and although a little reluctantly, they decided to carry out Stan Van Gundy's request.
When Stan Van Gundy said these words, he was actually a little worried, he was really afraid that a guy would suddenly jump up and object, so today's game is all explained here, fortunately, the final result is still in the direction he wanted.
That's it, too!
Stan Van Gundy really felt like he did his best today, both in terms of tactics and for his players.
As for whether to win or lose in the end......
Look at Destiny!
***
The second half of the game begins.
The Magic's first strike.
Although the Magic team was 9 points behind, the Magic players were ready to attack, and the audience still erupted in enthusiastic cheering.
Today's performance of the Magic team was somewhat dissatisfying to the Orlando fans at the scene.
But the Magic team has already stepped on the edge of the cliff with one foot, and it is time to refuel!
Howard got the first chance to attack as planned, and scored the first goal of the second half in the cheers of the crowd.
The cheers at the scene were also completely loud.
Is this still ready to hit Dwight Howard?
Xiao K looked at the Magic's style of play, and silently calculated in his heart, Mo Williams, who was holding the ball, held the ball from the backcourt and glanced at him as he entered the front court.
Little K nodded.
Keep hitting Howard this point!
Mo Williams got the order, held the ball and hit Howard, the third quarter had just begun, and Howard had already had two fouls, so he didn't dare to force it at this time, and he was still looking for someone to help him make up for it.
It seems that the Magic team has really not changed!
Xiao K looked at the Magic's offense and defense, and there was no change, and he couldn't help but say: Could it be that Stan Van Gundy has given up this game?
"Toot!"
Lewis, who was defending for Howard, was fouled by Williams and made two free throws.
Mo Williams scored twice amid a hail of boos.
Looking back, Howard continued to play with the ball......
After four or five rounds of back and forth, the Magic team relied on Howard on the offensive end and Howard on the defensive end.
Little K always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Then catch Howard and beat him!
Little K decided that no matter what Stan Van Gundy planned, as long as he got Howard down quickly, the impact on the Magic team would definitely be fatal.
The Bucks' entire offense continued to push Howard.
Stan Van Gundy called a timeout at this point!
The score difference has not changed, it is still 9 points, the state of the Magic team is not sluggish, and the state of the Bucks team is not hot, the two sides can be said to play back and forth, but Van Gundy chose to take a timeout at this time.
This makes Xiao K a little incomprehensible.
"Let's go up later, give the ball to Yi!"
With this timeout, Xiao K can be sure that the Magic team will not be taken by the Bucks just like this, but he really doesn't know what medicine Stan Van Gundy sells in the gourd!
simply, directly use nuclear weapons - Yi Jianlian!
No matter what kind of demon you do, I'll blow you up!
Stan Van Gundy was very energetic during this period, and by the way, he also refueled with the Magic team before the timeout ended.
Look at it like that, it's more or less a bamboo in your chest, and a big thing can be done!
"Toot!"
The game resumes.
The ball of the Magic team, the ball still found Howard, but Howard carried it and hit it twice, and returned the ball to the outside, Nelson Jr. received the ball, pulled it up and shot, and shot it very crisply, Mo Williams really didn't expect this shot, and when he wanted to pounce again, it was too late!
"Huh!"
Little Nelson scored a goal that suddenly got up!
The difference of 9 points became 6 points.
βyesοΌβ
"Well done!"
Howard high-fived Nelson Jr., and Stan Van Gundy waved his arm hard at the same time as the goal was scored, and finally let Nelson Jr. shoot three points again!
And......
Now that this goal has been scored, then others should not resist as much as before!
Stan Van Gundy was right, Nelson Jr. hit that three-pointer, and the cheers of the crowd dispelled the concerns of the Magic's outside shooters, who also began to look for opportunities to shoot three-pointers.
The Magic team familiar to the audience is coming back!
We're going to fight back... That's it~
"Phew!"
Yi Jianlian rushed into the Magic team's inside line and won the dunk.
After the Magic team came back from that timeout, Yi Jianlian alone had scored 8 points, and the Magic team only scored 7 points on two three-pointers and Howard's free throws during this time.
Well, the familiar Magic team is back, and the score difference has been expanded to 10 points!
Stan Van Gundy wanted to cry.
He worked hard to pull the Magic players out of the psychological resistance to shooting three-pointers, so that they finally started shooting three-pointers again, and these guys felt obviously good today, such as Nelson Jr., today's three-pointers have equaled the total number of three-pointers shot in the first two games!
Fans: Nonsense, there was only one in total!
But the result was good, Yi Jianlian made a force, and Stan Van Gundy found that his work was all for nothing.
