In the second quarter, the situation took a turn for the worse again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Magic's rotation lineup is really poor, facing the combination of Kobe, Gasol and Bynum is simply vulnerable, if it weren't for Howard's accidental snatching of two balls, and by the time Wu Di played, the Magic would have to fall behind by 10 points.

After Wu Di came on the court, Howard and Lewis went down, the two main scoring forces of the Magic were gone, and there was only one Tekoglu who was blocked by Wu Di, how could he beat Wu Di?

By halftime, the Magic were once again trailing by more than 20 points.

Similar to Game 1, the Magic capitulated in the fourth quarter.

The Lakers have won two straight home games and both sides fly to Orlando, where the next three games will be played if the Magic can make it to Game 3.

Back in Orlando, the Magic got a home-court effect. In the first quarter, the defensive intensity was very high, especially Howard, who sent blocks one after another, and sent five blocks in one quarter, which blinded the Lakers a little.

Howard is also desperate, as long as he shoots within two steps, he will rush to block.

Bynum was covered, Gasol was covered, and Fisher was covered.

Howard's desperate defense also brought benefits, and the Magic had a rare lead over the Lakers in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the Zen master replaced Kobe Bryant and others, and let Wu Di lead the team to play first.

Wu Di broke through Turkoglu and rushed into the inside, and Howard made up for it. Wu Di was a little unconvinced, he didn't pass the ball immediately, but chose to shoot. He wants to take on Howard, who is defensively about the same as he was when he had a quadruple-double, if not better. Because Howard is much taller than Wu Di, it is easier to block.

Howard rushed forward and fanned the basketball in Wu Di's hand. Wu Di moved sideways in the air, dodged Howard's block, and threw the ball out with one hand. Watching the basketball into the frame, Wu Di laughed, no matter how strong Howard's state is, he can still score easily.

Howard looked at Wu Di's back, and his gaze gradually became bad. Originally, he was able to get the best defensive player this season, but he didn't expect Wu Di to be even more demonic than him, surpassing him so much, and even his best block was not as good as Wu Dido. How can Howard accept that he was not in very good shape in the first two games, and Wu Di did not shoot in front of him, so Howard has never had a chance to take revenge.

Now Wu Di actually chose to shoot on his head, giving Howard hope for revenge. Howard focused on Wu Di and waited for him to shoot in front of him again.

Two minutes later, the opportunity Howard had been waiting for came, and Wu Di broke through Tekoglu again, and Howard immediately met him. Wu Di jumped and shot, perhaps because the previous ball was thrown, Wu Di also had some carelessness, and his jump height was not high. Howard immediately followed, and this time instead of fanning it, he reached out to cover the basketball.

Fan and cover are two concepts, the speed of the fan is large, but the accuracy is poor; The speed of the hood is slow, but the accuracy is accurate.

A trace of anger flashed in Wu Di's eyes, he was careless about his anger! Guan Yu carelessly lost Jingzhou and died in defeat. The result of his carelessness was not so terrible, but it made Wu Di feel ashamed, and this was the first time he was blocked. He could have kept this record for the rest of his life, but now he has failed because of his carelessness.

Wu Di was dissatisfied with his negligence, and at the same time angry at Howard's scheming.

But after the anger, Wu Di quickly calmed down, he was not a reckless man, now was not the time to be angry, he decided to play this game well.

Howard blocked Wu Di and immediately became happy and began to celebrate. But he didn't want to, Wu Di picked up the basketball again, and then stuffed it into the basket, and Pekovic immediately received the ball and dunked.

Maybe this is the difference between a reckless man and a wise man, right? When Howard saw the Lakers score, he didn't seem to care very much, and he said to Wu Di proudly: "I covered you one, you will never cover me!" ”

Wu Di really wants to spray him to death with a mouthful of salt soda, you are a big center, only operating in the penalty area, if I want to block you, you have to leave your defensive players, isn't this giving you points?

When Howard saw that Wu Di didn't speak, he was even more proud.

Wu Di's face darkened, watching Howard score a single Pekovic. Wu Di asked for the ball directly from the backcourt, and then rushed straight to the frontcourt, and the basketball fell into the basket outside the three-point line. He also said to Howard: "If you have the ability, you can also shoot a three-pointer!" ”

Howard's face darkened when he heard it, he didn't even shoot in the middle, and he shot three points?

The conversation between the two fox friends makes the others want to laugh, and after these two games, they will go to the nightclub together, but on the field they talk like children, can it not be funny? If there is a best friend in the NBA, then the two of them can definitely make the list.

Howard continued to beat Pekovic on the inside, and it seemed like all the momentum was about to be released. Pekovic didn't limit Howard that much in this game, and his blocking made Howard push back even harder.

Wu Di fired directly on the outside, Turkoglu couldn't prevent Wu Di's shooting at all, and the Magic had to let two people wrap Wu Di. Then the Lakers' offense was much simpler, with the others playing three in four, Brad Miller, Sun Yue and Vujacic all shooting from the outside, and Howard's defensive role was minimized.

But that's it, Howard didn't give up, and kept running in and out of the box.

He was really desperate, he kept running the whole game, his physical exertion was very great, and he didn't last until the sixth minute of the second quarter, and he had to go to rest.

Once again, the Lakers overtook the score with the second-quarter rotation lineup and pulled the score away again.

In the third quarter, Howard was still desperately defending, and his blocks continued to rise, and by the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, his blocks had reached 9, and one more could be a double-double.

However, at this time, the unexpected happened. While Howard was blocking Bynum, the two collided and fell to the ground together. Howard was unfortunate enough to land first and was crushed under Bynum. By the time Bynum got up, Howard was rolling on the ground, with injuries to his back.

Bynum looked at the people of the Magic team very innocently, although he sometimes did it, but this time it was really not him who did it.

Howard was carried down by the team doctor and his injuries were quickly confirmed, with a back muscle contusion that required treatment in the hospital and was unable to play in the playoffs.

Magic fans immediately mourned, although the Magic could not win the championship in the first place, but they still felt very painful.
