Chapter 238: Teammate CBA!

As soon as the first half of the game ended, the name that fans shouted the most was still Wu Huang, although he made very few shots today, he still contributed 8 points in the first half, and had 5 rebounds and 10 assists, shooting 2 of 5, 1 of 3 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws.

Iguodala chipped in a first-half high 19 points, four rebounds and two assists, Harrington had 14 points and two rebounds, David Lee had 12 points and six rebounds, and Frye had eight points and two rebounds.

The Magic's top scorer was Vince Carter, the 33-year-old demigod had 14 points and 2 assists in the first half, Nelson had 12 points and 3 assists, and Howard had 12 points and 5 rebounds.

Howard's problem now is that he's prone to being limited once he's hit by a tough interior line, so who are the games he's scored less than 10 points in this season?

The answer is - the Celtics, Pistons, Timberwolves, Nuggets, Spurs, Grizzlies, Bobcats and Hornets.

And who is in the opposite position on these teams?

The answer is – Perkins and Garnett, Big Ben and Wallace, Jefferson and Love, Nene and Anderson, Duncan and DeJuan, Gasol Jr. and Randolph, Chandler and Dior, Okafor and West.

The interior of these teams is a 1+1 combination of strong and agile except for the Bobcats, and the center has outstanding ability to defend in the low post, which is enough to withstand Howard's collision; The big forward can also help defend from the weak side in time, which makes Warcraft a trapped beast.

It's no secret what kind of defense Howard fears, and once he can't get deep into the box and use his super physical fitness to attack the basket, there are not many ways for this monster to do, and those low-post hooks and shots are only visible shots in the highlights for him.

But in reality, these are pretty common interior offensive techniques, and even Lee can often hit small hooks in the low post.

Wu Huang really doesn't think much of Howard, although his penalty area dominance can be called the first in the league now. But the Knicks only need to spend 10 million to find a replacement who is not much worse than him, and on the offensive end they can completely replace it with David Lee or some other affordable No. 4 position, and even the two interior lines don't need to add up to 20 million.

A high-quality No. 4 with a truly fantastic footstep like Scola is now only worth five or six million, and if David Lee renews his contract, a top defensive center like Chandler will also have an annual salary of up to 10 million. Other practical interior players like Gortat and Vallejo are basically in the price range of five million to eight million, and the Knicks will sign three or four in one go next year, which is enough to kill Howard.

"I don't believe you were given a choice between me and Howard, you would choose that stupid big guy?" Wu Huang accepted the relaxation of the masseur at halftime, but secretly despised the media who said that he was inferior to Howard, and the league really despised the cost of a player like him, because you can't find an alternative.

Big Van Gundy summed up the reasons for the team's big deficit in the first half at halftime, and the biggest problem was that Howard didn't play a dominant defense on the inside, and he allowed Iguodala and Harrington to score under the basket on several occasions, which made the Magic's defense unable to expand outward. Because today's Warcraft can't guard the basket alone.

The second problem is that they can't shoot three-point shots, which is a chain reaction, once the team is no longer able to contain the three-point shot, the Knicks will shrink the defense inside, which makes it more difficult for Howard to create damage in the restricted area, and finally forms a dead loop.

Although Howard's physical fitness is perverted, he is actually very afraid of opponents, and Howard can often be seen squeezing in the low position for a long time. But he refused to pass the ball desperately, and was finally cut off by the outside defender.

These two questions. Howard and his teammates know why.

The news of Emperor Wu's calling for chickens two days ago was fake, but it was true that they went to a nightclub to have a party yesterday.

Howard is a big boy who loves to laugh in the eyes of many fans, but many people don't know that this guy is a player with an extremely disorderly private life off the court, and he was photographed going to prostitute the day before the draft, and Howard is also the only one. It was previously reported that Howard had 3 illegitimate children, or was born to 3 different women. But this news is long outdated. The number of his illegitimate children has long been more than 3, and now it is 6 illegitimate children and 6 different women.

Yesterday, most of the players of the Magic team went to a nightclub in New York to have fun, and today they have played more restrained without soft feet, but it is impossible to be as lively as the first two games.

That's why Howard has never been able to handle David Lee, and the New York center is not on the list to restrain him. This can only be his own problem.

The degree of erosion in the private lives of NBA players has always far exceeded the estimation of ordinary fans.

Wu Huang's scandal spread widely, that is because the woman is well-known, but the media reports are Taylor Swift and Christine, and recently added a niece of the actress, but I haven't heard of him messing around outside, let alone the news that he has any illegitimate children, and this is the first time that the paparazzi have taken photos of him and the stripper going to the hotel.

But if you look at other stars, I believe many fans will feel that Wu Huang's honest paddling behavior is really low-key among many big-name stars.

The magic team has a guy who is far more ridiculous than Wu Huang, the flowery Warcraft will have 8 illegitimate children in the near future, and the retired camp has 11 illegitimate children.

Uncle Long was scolded for more than ten years when he made a little dragon girl, and he was also under huge pressure, which has a lot to do with traditional Chinese morality. But in fact, in the United States, the pressure of public opinion on illegitimate children is far less than in China, and there are often such things in the NBA, and many players are not ashamed but proud.

These hormonal players rarely train honestly, but the enthusiasm to go to nightclubs is ridiculously high, they like to be merciful everywhere, and the next step is to keep seeds everywhere, for these NBA stars with sexual hormones beyond ordinary people, their mistresses everywhere also means that there are many illegitimate children.

Ancient figures like Chamberlain will not be mentioned. From Jordan becoming the first person in the NBA to now, he has been retired for almost ten years, but during this period, he will be exposed to the news of illegitimate children every two years. Someone once counted Jordan specifically, if all the rumors of illegitimate children over the years are true, then Jordan's children are not 3 but a staggering 6. It is said that the gang leader has his own exclusive mistress on many NBA away games. Robin Givens, the wife of boxing champion Ali, claimed to have lived with Jordan for three months before marrying the boxing champion.

Wu Huang and his neighbor Chloe Moretz are also a bit ambiguous in the eyes of many people. But most people still believe that the two are just normal neighbors and friends, after all, Wu Huang and Super Killer were neighbors when they were not famous, and his agent is still Kolo's brother, and the relationship between the two families should be very good.

But another Hall of Fame superstar is really the underage girl, Carl Malone impregnated and gave birth to a 12-year-old girl in college, and the postman had many illegitimate children in private.

At that time, the Seattle SuperSonics team had a popular carnal feast culture, and "Gloves" Payton was known as the king of nightclubs, and had many disputes with people in nightclubs because of pickle girls, and almost all the players on the team had unmarried but gave birth. Including Ray Allen, known as the "gentleman".

This kind of thing is so common in the NBA that some media have said that the average player in the NBA has an illegitimate child. And this concept of illegitimate children, which is still narrow in the sense, only refers to the children born to players and regular female partners. If you start with the concept of illegitimate children in the broad sense (i.e., one-night stands), then the number of bastards in the NBA will immediately more than triple or quadruple.

Anita Ewing, the wife of former Knicks superstar Ewing, wrote a book called "Home Field Advantage" in the late 90s, focusing on exposing the various lewd and promiscuous vices of football stars, including the scandal of her own husband Ewing prostitution.

That book is a stark exposé of the jaw-dropping lewdness habits of NBA players. Some teams often share female companions, and some women always move between two or three stars. There are also women who deliberately let themselves get pregnant with the star's child in order to demand huge alimony, and some girls even deliberately claim that they were forced X after having sex with the star. Taking advantage of the opportunity to extort huge hush money from the stars, these wealthy players often give money in order to avoid trouble.

These tricks are the favorite of girls who want to get rich overnight, they will first find a way to join a certain team's cheerleading team, and then find a chance to meet the stars, and the odds of success are extremely high.

That's why the league later ruled that players couldn't socialize with cheerleaders, but not many players actually followed this rule.

Anita's book is so popular. It has been reprinted and released many times, which has also caused the reputation of the NBA to decline significantly.

The NBA league has never been admired by people above the middle class, and countless off-court scandals are the biggest reason, and these black stars with bad off-court records are not worthy of being idols and life coaches for their children in the eyes of the elite, rather than watching the NBA. They would rather take their children to the Major League Baseball.

David Stern has never been able to promote the NBA to Europe, and even in Asia, because most of these black stars are really not worthy of respect, and they have nothing to learn from other than playing basketball well.

Stars like to make illegitimate children, but there are also some big-name stars in the league who are themselves illegitimate children, such as O'Neal, Iverson, LeBron and others. But there are few people like LeBron who don't know who their biological father is, so over the years, some people have always jumped out and claimed that they are LeBron's biological father.

One of the most bizarre legends about illegitimate children in the NBA is that Kobe's maternal grandmother once dated Chamberlain, this story was broken by a Philadelphia sports reporter, and this revelation is reminiscent, someone carefully compared Chamberlain's photo with Kobe Bryant on the computer, and found that the silhouette of the two people when they were young was really a little similar.

Of course, it's okay that the star himself is someone else's illegitimate child, that's the responsibility of the parents' generation. Those who went bankrupt in order to support their illegitimate children are miserable enough, but they are also responsible. The saddest one is to look forward to the stars and the moon, and finally hope that the legal wife finally gave birth to a son, but when she came up, she found that this son was not her own.

Nash was recruited, and his ex-wife was accused by the Phoenix media of being too arrogant and living an inappropriate lifestyle. Nash was already suspicious of her, and took a paternity test immediately after the birth of her wrong-colored son (not twin Lori). I found out that the situation was as I expected, how could this dark-skinned child TM be his own?

There are many similar absurd things in the NBA, such as Rockets veteran Murphy molesting several of his underage daughters, the **** tape of Jordan and porn stars was stolen, Parker's theft of his sister-in-law, Fergus's sexual abuse of female singers, 3J's group fights for women, Durant wants to drink Scarlett's bathwater, Byron Davis is a "little three", O'Neal is involved with the general's wife Govan Laura, Kobe Bryant cheats on Martin's fiancée, Wade has sexually transmitted disease, and gives each other championship rings and Olympic gold medals after a one-night stand, The magician's extravagance of lace will eventually be punished, and so on......

All of this big names happened in the era of David Stern, and before that there were countless more ridiculous stories in the league, Rodman once complained in his rare sobriety that the NBA is half sex and half money.

Such an alliance really only has a plot on the field to watch. Most basketball fans usually distinguish between the on-court image of a star and the off-court image, they worship the star's majestic appearance on the court, because these are things that ordinary people can't do, but most of these stars are not as good as their fans in reality, at least half of the players are scum scum with a bunch of problems on them.

Wu Huang has always hated these well-limbed, simple-minded, and lawless guys, even the magicians and flying men that most people admire, and he thinks that these people are good no matter how great they are on the field. But off the field, it's just an ordinary person with countless vices, and he doesn't behave as well as most fans, so why should he worship them?

It is with this idea that Emperor Wu can talk trash to anyone when he needs to, even if Jordan comes up, he will still expose the flying man.

Everyone is not a good thing, but Wu Huang feels that he is a little better than these people, at least he will not have those scandals such as venereal diseases and sexual assault.

The second half came up. Emperor Wu ridiculed Warcraft: "Camp signed a contract of more than 100 million, and declared bankruptcy as soon as he retired. You also have a lot of illegitimate children, aren't you afraid that you will have to pay high alimony in the future, and maybe even follow the example of Camp and go bankrupt? ”

Howard couldn't help it anymore, and threatened with murderous intent: "If you have a kind, just say it again, I promise to tear your mouth apart." ”

Emperor Wu also stepped forward. The chests of the two of them were already pasted, and he said-for-tat: "Don't come with me, you're just a clown, hurry up and I'll take a look." ”

Howard's head was hot, and he was about to punch Emperor Wu. Carter and Nelson rushed up again and pulled him aside.

This is just a joke, if he really beats Emperor Wu, he will definitely be banned whether he can beat it or not, and then the magic will be over. And I'm not afraid to be honest, if Howard wants to beat people, he won't bother to care if he kills Emperor Wu in the summer, but he must not do it now.

Wu Huang felt a little pity in his heart, he was confident that with his own reaction, if he was prepared, Howard would not even think to touch a single hair of him.

He didn't feel despicable by doing this, no one would know what he said after the game, and besides, he just said that these were the truths, and by the way, he also reminded Howard to be careful of becoming the second Kemp, which he deserved to die for.

Emperor Wu came to this alliance to prove his talent, to prove the talent of the yellow race, and at the same time to earn countless money and honors, in order to accomplish these goals, he will not scruple too much.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Howard forced David Lee to almost hit a three-pointer, but unfortunately the Monster's free throws were so bad that he didn't hit one of the two free throws. Fortunately, Carter was in good shape today, hitting a three-point shot from distance, Lewis then broke through for a layup, and the Magic hit a 9-4 counterattack to close the gap.

Iguodala once again received a pass from Wu Huang and made two free throws, becoming the first player on the court today to score more than 20 points.

The two teams formed a stalemate in the third quarter, and the Magic opened with Howard twice in the low post, but when they either missed free throws or couldn't hit the low post, Nelson and Carter began to take over the offensive power, and Howard could only keep coming out to cover his teammates' breakthroughs.

Wu Huang faced Nelson, who forced him to break through with his body, and chose to let his interior teammates help him change defenses, without feeling ashamed of letting others defend for him. In his eyes, this is the best solution, really go and Nelson to compare who is stronger, the man is the man. But it's just a bit brain-dead.

Howard's muscles are very advantageous in playing high blocking, but this is not a last resort and is unwilling to pull out.

Wu Huang thinks this is a good thing for the Knicks, Howard plays a high post blocking and pick-and-roll is a great threat to the Knicks, and it is best if they don't play like this.

With 6 minutes and 53 seconds left in the quarter, after Nelson broke through with Howard's cover, Wu Huang took the lead in the route of the Warcraft.

Howard couldn't hold back. simply turned his heart sideways, and used his iron elbow to slam at Emperor Wu's back.

"I'm drafting uncle!" Emperor Wu didn't expect Howard to come to this move, even if he had planned to fall down as soon as he was forced, this time it was as if he had been hit by a hammer, and he fell to the floor in embarrassment.

"You bastard, I'm going to kill you!" Harrington was very quick-witted, stepped forward and gave Howard a hard push, and took the initiative to ask for a technical foul in order to make things bigger. He thought that Emperor Wu was pretending again.

The players of the two teams were ignited with powder kegs by Harrington's movements, and they pushed each other in a circle, you push me, I arch you...... Wu Huang was lying on the ground and didn't know who had stepped on him, so angry that he endured the pain and crawled outside the battle group.

The three referees and the veterans of both teams quickly pulled away the players who wanted to move and pull the skew, and the scene was quickly brought under control, and the players stood in their own half of the court to await the decision.

Howard stepped aside just after the end of the game, even though he knew he might be sent off the court today. But I still think it's worth it! His elbow can make Wu Huang unable to play for at least two weeks, even if he is banned for one game. And he also breathed a bad breath in his heart.

The New York fans in Madison Garden are frantically cursing Howard, his elbow action is hidden in the drop, and even the Magic fans know that this must be a malicious attack, and if a malicious foul is not run, it depends on whether the referee will give it "first" or "second".

If a "second-degree foul" is awarded, Howard will be automatically suspended for one game. That's a big deal for magic.

The players of the two teams were separated, and several referees came to the technical table to discuss for a while, and after watching the replay repeatedly, the referee finally walked up to Howard and showed a "first-degree malicious foul" and sent the monster off the court. The Knicks' Al Harrington was also shown a technical foul for pushing Howard. But other than that. The rest of the players on both teams were not punished, and the referee opted to keep a low profile as much as possible.

Wu Huang felt a hot pain in his back at the moment, but after moving a little, although the place where he was elbowed was very painful, the bone should be fine, otherwise he would not be able to move, it should be a soft tissue injury, but I don't know how serious the injury is?

The Knicks team doctor advised Wu Huang to leave the court and go to the hospital for a closer examination, he will feel a lot of pain when he straightens his back now, and if he continues to play, the injury will definitely worsen, and he may not be able to show much strength.

This is not the final battle of the finals, and Wu Huang does not need to gamble on his career.

"Damn, of course I'm going to the hospital, not to mention the second round of the playoffs, even if it's really the final game of the finals, I may not bet." Emperor Wu complained in his heart, and scolded Howard for being a bastard! This time, he remembered, sooner or later he will come back with revenge, and if he doesn't come to your back in the future, Lao Tzu will not be surnamed Wu.

"Okay, I'll go to the hospital for a check-up, but let me make two free throws first." Wu Huang's words immediately left D'Antoni and the whole team speechless, but after thinking about it, it is clear that he has only scored 8 points now, and he no longer scored two points to make up double digits before leaving, and his "consecutive scoring record of double doubles" was suspended.

Although Wu Huang will feel pain when he straightens his back, it is still no problem to endure two free throws.

When the New York fans saw Wu Huang return to the court and stood at the free throw line, they thought that their "Holy Sect Master" had nothing to do, and for a while, the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis were higher and higher.

Howard had just returned to the visiting locker room at this time, and when he learned that Wu Huang was back on the court, his face became even more ugly than that of Wu Huang who was making free throws, he took off his elbow pads and threw them to the ground, scolding: "This bastard, can't you kill him like this?" Howard felt that even if he was hit like this, he wouldn't be able to slow down after three or five days, he knew how much effort he had just used, with Wu Huang's small physique, it was normal to be injured for a month or two, how could he still play on the court?

Wu Huang endured the pain in his back, but still hit both free throws.

While New York fans were cheering wildly for Wu Huang, many people also hacked Howard's 3-of-9 pit shooting rate today.

After the Knicks and Magic each made their own free throws. The ball still belonged to the Knicks, and the score became 77-64, and although the Magic caught up with some points in this quarter, this time the fouls were all handed back.

D'Antoni immediately called a timeout to replace Wu Huang, who raised his hand and waved at the New York fans and left the stadium like a hero to the cheers of the crowd.

New York fans still left the stadium when they saw Wu Huang. I was a little worried in my heart, I originally thought that Emperor Wu was fine, but now it seems that he is still a little injured. However, judging from the way he walked, even if he was injured, it should not be very serious, and Emperor Wu didn't let anyone help him, just bent over a little when he walked.

The big screen at the scene gave Wu Huang's full-court data, he contributed 10 points, 7 rebounds and 13 assists before the third quarter was played, if it wasn't for Howard's sudden plot, it is very likely to get his third triple-double in the playoffs today.

"This bastard dropped my second-round average stats down two notches. It also ruined my three pairs, and I must get a few 300 pounds of black and hard next year to serve you well! After Wu Huang entered the players' tunnel, he couldn't help but ask the team to get big-tonnage centers such as Okafor and Perkins right now, and then see if Howard could be so easy.

After playing three games in this series, his personal data dropped to 14.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks per game. How can you see people with such data? Originally, he wanted to make a triple-double today to save some face, but he was plotted by Howard and failed, and he almost didn't even keep the "consecutive scoring record", which is really hateful!

After a few girls saw Emperor Wu leave. The first time I called, I was concerned about his injury.

Wu Huang returned to the locker room and turned on his mobile phone, and when he saw the caller ID, he first sent a text message back to Emma Roberts. Because this is the most like his goal to swallow at this stage. After that, he replied to the other harem members one by one, telling them that he was fine, and that he couldn't play difficult poses for the most two days.

He still has the leisure to flirt with his sister, but he never thought that the 13-point lead he left behind would be turned into a single digit by others in the blink of an eye.

After Wu Huang and Howard left the arena one after another. The Magic sent a small lineup of Nelson, Petrus, Carter, Barnes, and Gortat, although the overall strength has declined, the overall framework can barely be maintained, and the system will not collapse without one core.

But the Knicks are completely different, and Emperor Wu is off the court. D'Antoni can only be replaced: Duhon, Iguodala, Green, Harrington, David Lee's lineup, they are now equal to two less main players, and a Gallinari has been injured early in the morning.

In this lineup, only Iguodala can attack with the ball, but the Magic lineup is obviously specifically aimed at the Knicks, and the forward lineup of Petrus, Carter and Barnes is enough for the first brother to be trapped, and at this time, the consequences of not having Wu Huang are finally reflected, and the Knicks players are suddenly disoriented, and they don't know how to play.

The Magic suddenly came out of nowhere in the middle of the third quarter, taking advantage of the time when the Knicks lost their backbone, and after Petrus and Nelson hit back-to-back three-pointers, the Magic narrowed the gap to 3 points at 76:79.

D'Antoni called two timeouts in two minutes, and the Magic hit four three-pointers in 2:20 to turn the game around.

Before the end of the third quarter, Iguodala hit a jumper, but the New York fans didn't wait to be happy, Nelson was like a tiger out of the gate after receiving the serve, and he actually hit the front court alone and hit a counterattack shot in the last 3 seconds to press the whistle three-pointer!

The goal left the New York fans speechless, and they now finally know why Nelson didn't play in the second round, not because the previous outburst was just a flash in the pan, but because Wu Huang's defensive second team had an effect, and this honor selected by the coaches of the league's 30 teams is really not a joke.

The Magic tied the score at 85-85, and in the second half of the quarter they went on a 19-6 offensive wave to score 35 points in a single quarter, while the Knicks only scored 20 points in this quarter, all in the first half of the quarter.

Wu Huang received a TV screenshot from Chloe Moretz in the car at this time, which clearly showed the scores of the two teams at the end of the third quarter, and when he saw the score being equalized by the Magic, Wu Huang almost fainted directly.

"What's going on? Did any of them get hurt again? Wu Huang couldn't believe that this was true, when he left, he thought that he was stable today, and Howard on the other side also went down with him, but he didn't expect to be tied by others in only half a quarter, this is a rhythm of 0:3!

Just as Wu Huang came to the hospital to prepare for the examination, the Knicks also started the fourth quarter with 10:4.

Iguodala and David Lee stepped up at crucial moments, and the two kept standing on the free throw line to add points to the team, and they took another 95-89 lead.

Both teams began to shoot off in the quarter, especially the Knicks' outside shooting that lost the magic of the first half.

The Magic once again unfurled Iguodala and shrank the line.

The Knicks didn't step up this time and missed all four of their first four three-pointers in the quarter.

The Magic, however, immediately regained the lead with 7:25 left in the game after a 9-2 run and then 98-97 with 7:25 left in the game.

In the middle of the final quarter, under the Magic's impregnable defense, the Knicks fell into scoring difficulties again, and from 6:50 left in the quarter, they failed to shoot a shot for more than 4 minutes, until 2:40 left in the game, David Lee hit a basket, and the score had already become 99:106.

The Magic had the chance to win, but Lewis missed three consecutive shots at a critical moment, giving the Knicks another chance.

After Iguodala and Harrington each hit three-pointers, the Knicks trailed the score to 103-106 with 35 seconds left in the game, and they still had a chance to win.

D'Antoni made a choice that wasn't right or wrong at a crucial moment, and he ordered his team to let go of Lewis, who missed three consecutive shots on the defensive end. So in the final 18 seconds of the game, Lewis got another open shot, and this time he didn't give up again, and the basketball went into the frame.

D'Antoni's gamble failed, and the Knicks had to execute foul tactics, and after Carter hit two free throws, the Magic led by eight points, and the Knicks could not escape.

"Madison Square Garden" was completely silent at the moment the whistle sounded, and only the Magic players were left in the stadium celebrating wildly, and all the New York fans and players were dumbfounded, they didn't believe and couldn't understand why it ended up like this, which was a good situation before. (To be continued.) )
