Chapter 243: Suppression

In fact, the Magic have a lot of lineup flaws, in comparison, the Hawks' lineup is more balanced offensively and defensively, and the connection between the first and second lineups is also better. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But on the contrary, the Magic and the Eagles fought to a 3-3 draw, looking indistinguishable.

Then a group of sub-experts were depressed, according to theoretical analysis, even if the magic had a hand break out in one or two games, it would not force the eagles to this part!

It wasn't until Li Dong played one incredible performance after another that the experts understood.

The most unpredictable thing for the Magic is actually Li Dong's state, Li Dong is the X factor of the Magic, Li Dong's own strength exceeds the level of ordinary stars, and he can change the overall trend of the game at the last moment. And usually people who can perform like this are called superstars.

But Li Dong has already played such a performance in his first season.

Now that the two teams are in their seventh game, the outcome is unpredictable, and the performance of superstars in such an important game is particularly important. For example, Li Dong's efficient performance of 12 points in the first quarter was very satisfactory to the fans, and compared with the more balanced scoring of the Magic star, it was obviously more outstanding.

After the start of the second quarter, the two teams began to face off in the second lineup.

The Hawks still have Dennis Schroder as the core of the second team, and the Magic rely mainly on Evan Fournier.

In the second-of-six Hawks matchup between the two teams, the Magic actually had a slight advantage.

In the cheering of the home fans today, the state of the substitutes is like adding heat to the microwave, and there is always a sparkling appearance.

Li Dong can't help it, now every time the Eagles attack a ball and defend a ball, it will cause Phillips to shake, and the team's morale is high.

Three minutes into it, the Hawks led the Magic by six points at 34-27, and the Magic fell into a scoring drought at the start of the second quarter.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Skels called a timeout and then replaced Li Dong, who had rested for three minutes, on the court.

The Phillips fans were breathless. This damn big demon king is on again!

Suddenly, they gave the warmest boos without reservation, as if they had seen the enemy who killed their father.

Li Dong received the ball in the low post when he came on, and the ball from Fournier hit the ground. The guy just missed three shots and was in embarrassment.

Li Dong singled Jeff Green with his back.

It's not a good option, as the 27-year-old is 2.03m tall and weighs 108kg, making it a small forward position. often plays big forward, Li Dong can't sit still.

Li Dong naturally knows this, and the eagle's deployment is aimed at his height and arm span.

He took the ball and turned around, his hands hanging it down, almost touching the ground.

Mike Scott stretched out one hand above Li Dong's head as if he were facing a great enemy, and the two people around him pulled away. The Eagles also have Schroder, Korver, Muscala and Humphries on the Hawks' side, and the Magic have Watson, Fournier, Frye and Dedmon on the Magic's side.

Li Dong took a test step with the ball, and Scott's tense nerves jumped. Subconsciously, I want to move my body.

But when he reacted, Li Dong made a breakthrough change in the opposite direction on the spot, he controlled the ball with his left hand and flipped it, and the person moved with the ball, completing a rhythm change in an instant.

Scott moved his body to keep up, but lost half of his position, and Li Dong immediately tapped the floor once, took a big stride with his left foot to the left, leaned back, and threw a step-back jumper.

Hit! 34 to 29.

As soon as he came up, he hit a mid-range jumper that stabilized the morale of the army. Li Dong's court insight and basketball IQ are very commendable. The Eagles' soaring momentum fell back because of Li Dong's crisp and unreasonable shot, and the Magic gradually stabilized, and the fans' emotions returned to calm.

Budenholzer secretly scolded Skeles for being an old fox in his heart, and calculated the time. It is also ready to bring Bazemore on the pitch to replace Muscala, and Scott can play in the number four position.

After this change, Li Dong's old opponent Bazemore confronted him, and the two began to entangle each other again.

By the minute mark, the two teams were gradually returning their first players to the pitch. There was a slight change on the Eagles' side, with Millsap playing the No. 5 position and Scott continuing to play the No. 4 position on the court.

The Hawks held on to a five-point advantage, Li Dong led the Magic players to launch a counterattack, chasing only two points in the first two minutes of halftime, and Korver's three-pointer and a sudden Bazemore's layup stabilized the situation.

At halftime, the Magic trailed the Hawks by four points at 46-50, but the score between the two teams was the highest in these games.

This posture is to go to the big score, and the fans who bought the small points cried and fainted in the toilet.

At the break, Li Dong, who had already scored 21 points, was redrawn onto the tactical board by Budenholzer, who held a marker and drew the offensive and defensive lines of the first half in front of the huge tactical board in the locker room.

"We're doing well, guys. Orlando got into trouble and we limited the rest to just 25 points, and if we had been at that pace throughout the game, I think we could have won the game. ”

In the Magic locker room, there is no big tactical board, and Skyles can only take the technical statistics of the first half, analyze the situation in the second half with assistant coach Bob, and give instructions and explanations to each player to pay attention to in the second half, emphasizing the details.

The tie-break battle changed the lifeless defense, and the two teams played offense, which made the fans addicted.

At the start of the second half, the ratings had broken through to an all-time high, and in this year's playoffs, there is no game that can compare to the ratings of this game, and it really should be at the level of the Eastern Conference semifinals or finals if Barkley said.

After three quarters, Li Dong scored 36 points, but the Magic still trailed by 7 points 69-76.

Li Dong sat on the bench panting, feeling for the first time that maybe he was still the protagonist of the game, but the victory would be taken away by others......

That feeling of not being in control, as if things are going to go in a bad direction.

At the moment, he was tired.

But there was no time to rest, and after an interval of a minute and a half, he was back on the court, and the scorching situation needed him, and the Magic couldn't do without his offense.

No. 1's back was frozen by the camera, and the helpless appearance of standing up from the bench broke the hearts of many fans......
