On the Chinese side, the fans were very excited.

Zhang Hezhi understood: "There is no suspense in this game between the Warriors and the Magic, and Li Zhi will win the championship soon." ”

Yu Jia said: "It's just that Li Zhi's MVP is a bit hanging, and his teammates are too frustrated." ”

Zhang Li said with a smile: "Indeed, Li Zhi still needs to work hard to win the MVP, and how to win the MVP without scoring points." "Fans feel that Zhang is okay to say, domestic fans are affected by Kobe's style of play, and scoring is an important factor in MVP selection.

Although Kobe Bryant was eliminated, there are still many fans in China, even more than Li Zhi's fans. There's no way, Kobe's style of play is too fan-catching, and he can still get high scores in individual singles, with scoring highlights of 81 and 61 points, which can be seen everywhere on the Internet.

The fans don't care how many times you hit the iron, as long as you score. Fans won't care what Kobe's teammates will think. Everyone thinks so, if you win, it's Kobe Bryant's bullnose, and if you lose, it's your teammate's spicy chicken. But looking at it now, the situation of the Warriors seems to be a little different, Li Zhi's teammates are too strong, which makes Li Zhi feel a little overwhelmed.

Li Zhi is actually more inclined to learn Duncan's team play, why have the Spurs been able to be strong for more than ten years? Duncan is indispensable.

Duncan now has 4 championships and Kobe Bryant has three, but Duncan fans don't have as many as Kobe. Duncan has conveyed this concept to fans more than once in interviews: "You fans don't want to chase those shows, you should play as a team, it can lead everyone to win." ”

There are many Kobe fans in the post-80s and post-90s in China, playing on the school basketball team, dribbling and drifting to shoot in one step, and then slamming the iron. You ask him why he fights like this?

That's how Kobe Bryant played.

Duncan then said, "You learn from that guy, but do you have that guy's skills?" Don't you play team basketball obediently? ”

This phenomenon is very common in the NBA in the future, and ten years later, many newcomers who enter the NBA idolize Kobe, thinking about 16 rookie Buddy Hield and 15 rookie Devin Booker.

The counter-example is Lonzo Ball, who honestly passes the ball to the basket and lays a glance, and plays reasonably well, but is sprayed all day long.

It's just that Brother Qiu is still with the Lakers, and it is a group of people who have been blinded by Kobe Bryant's heroic ball play, and naturally they are constantly criticized. In another place, such as the Spurs, the ball brother is definitely much better than in the Lakers. (Tian Lei swears that if there is a chance, Brother Qiu will definitely transfer.) ）

Li Zhi's presence on the offensive end of this game is very low, but if someone takes a closer look at the data, they will find that Li Zhi has 6 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds, 5 steals and 1 block, is this a low sense of existence? He is simply an all-around warrior than James.

Li Zhi doesn't care what others think, his goal is to brush up on steals, and 10 steals is his goal, so he will not hesitate to focus on the defensive end in this game, and the offensive end is mainly organizational. So far, Li Zhi has only made two shots, and both three-pointers have been scored.

The Magic were a mess defended by Richie, and so was their own defense. Big Van Gundy was too late to bring on Gortat. Gortat came on the court in the last two minutes, hitting both shots, and he and Howard paired the inside, the inside was secured, but the outside was rounded.

Although the game was the home court of the Warriors, they didn't make many free throws, and the whole team floated to shoot from the outside, or long-range two-pointers, or three-pointers. Only when Howard isn't on the floor will the Warriors choose to attack the restricted area.

Similarly, the Magic didn't get much of a free throw, and Howard didn't get a few fouls on a single shot in the low post. In this Warriors' lead of more than 20 points, Nelson gave up the "shark slashing tactic", so at halftime, Howard did not score much.

At halftime, the Warriors led by 28 points at 75:47.

"The Magic trailed so much at halftime, it reminds me of the Celtics' 39-point win over the Lakers," Barkley said. If there is no miracle in the second half, the Magic lose. ”

The Lakers set this embarrassing record in the Finals last year, and now the Magic are worse than the Lakers, and they could be swept away and lost, and by a big score. Although the Cavaliers were also swept in 2007, they could not have been so miserable.

ESPN commentary seat, Joan Barry said: "If the Warriors win the championship, then they will be the biggest dark horse championship in the NBA since the 21st century. ”

Jeff Van Gundy nodded and said, "The Warriors can be called dark horses, and at the beginning of this season, no one was optimistic about them. The signing of O'Neal has been questioned, and the deal between Milicic and Jordan Jr. has been seen as a mentally retarded deal. The season also lost their core Byron Davis, which can be considered ill-fated. ”

Magic Moon said implicitly: "Byron Davis is so miserable, for the sake of money, he missed the championship. There is also Kyle Lowry, who was traded away by Mullin in the middle of the game in exchange for a dispensable David Lee, who is really mentally retarded. If Lowry doesn't go, the Warriors' playoff journey may be smoother, and at least the Magic's point guards will be bitten by Lowry. ”

There is also a discussion of this game on the Internet, and Chinese fans are undoubtedly the most enthusiastic, and the "Li Zhi Bar" is already celebrating in advance. In the past, there were many "Li Hei" here, but today they didn't dare to show their heads.

If he wins, Li Zhi will be the second Chinese player to win the championship. The first is Battle, but the two are not comparable at all. In 2003, Battle averaged 3.8 minutes per game with the Spurs, only 0.8 points and 0.8 rebounds per game, which can only be regarded as a lie win, and Li Zhi really deserves to be the core.

In the locker room, Nelson laid out the tactics for the second half. Rich, Crawford, Jackson, Milicic and Jordan Jr. started and fought for the Magic in the third quarter.

Li Zhi suddenly had a sense of urgency, if he led too much in the third quarter, he might not be able to play in the fourth quarter, but he still had 5 steals to complete.

In the Magic locker room, Van Gundy didn't roar, and he didn't feel like he had much of a chance. Now that the Magic are trailing by more than 20 points, Oracle is still the home court of the Warriors, and now Warriors fans are eager to eat the Magic players to celebrate their fourth championship in 34 years as soon as possible.

Howard and Turkoglou seemed to prove something to him in this matchup, and neither of them made a shot, which also made Van Gundy understand something. Lewis was decisive, but his shooting percentage was not high.

He is envious of Nelson right now, with so many players at his disposal, if the Magic have a Warriors roster, even if Howard and Turkoglu don't bird him, he can play with the Warriors. In the end, Van Gundy could only sigh, it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

As soon as the second half came up, the Warriors gave the Magic a dismount, Jordan Jr. and Li Zhi blocked and dismantled, Li Zhi passed the air relay, and Jordan Jr. dunked with both hands.

Taking advantage of Tekoglu's absent-mindedness in possession of the ball, Li Zhi took the opportunity to steal, and the Warriors counterattacked. Richie shook off Turkoglou, and Jackson dunked again.

Howard finally stopped gambling in the third quarter, and he began to attack under the basket.

Jordan Jr. didn't foul either, but he carried it low to prevent Howard from entering the restricted area, and others didn't help defend. It's all 30 points ahead, even if Howard can play? And Howard won't shoot three-pointers, and even if they want to chase points, it's impossible to rely on Howard.

Howard asked for a single, in fact, it is not to forgive Van Gundy or to mature, this is because he feels that the current 7 points and 5 rebounds data end the game is not good.

Howard hit a hook shot, and when he returned to the defensive end, he still shrunk under the basket and couldn't come out. The outside line doesn't care, it seems to be urging the Warriors to attack quickly, and he is so good at scoring points. Howard still has a thought, he wants to blow up Jordan Jr., even if he can't win the game, he can't let Jordan Jr. break ground on his head, the basket is his territory, and it is impossible for Jordan Jr. to catch it empty.
