Chapter 199: First defeat at home

"The gap between the two teams today is too big. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 "The Spurs' defense is not bad, but the offense is going bad. Both Oladipo and Li Dong are the top physicals in the swingman position, while the Spurs' talent is very limited. ”

"That's right, Li Dong and Oladipo cooperate tacitly, and the coordination of one attack and one defense is almost perfect."

"What's even more terrifying is that when Oladipo appears on the weak side, Li Dong will inevitably form a complement to him, one of the two of them cuts in the air, and the other retreats to the three-point line, but they both have the ability to shoot three-pointers, which is a huge help to open up the entire court space."

"The Spurs want to hang, they can't defend themselves from the outside, and they lose rebounds from the inside."

But at this moment, the Spurs are obviously in better shape than the Magic, and after coming off the bench in the second quarter, the point difference was gradually recovered.

By halftime, the Magic had a 65-57 lead of 8 points, of which Li Dong alone contributed 19 points.

At halftime, the little wolf interacted with the audience quite enthusiastically, and it was a lottery, and he was riding a car or something.

"After this game, I will go straight to the holiday, oops, it's really fun." During the break in the dressing room, the players were talking and laughing.

"It's a pity for our Lee, he still has to attend All-Star Weekend, that's very tiring." Oladipo laughed, and the topic led to Li Dong.

Li Dong said: "Victor, don't make fun of me, I'm just a rookie who participates for the first time, and it's just soy sauce." ”

All All-Stars in the East and West were announced, with Kelly Lowry, Dwyane Wade, Li Dong, Paul George and LeBron James in the East and Paul Millsap, Chris Bosh, Jimmy Butler, John Wall, Isiah Thomas, Andre Drummond and DeMar DeRozan off the bench.

Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, Kobe Bryant, Kawhi Leonard and Kevin Durant in the West and Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins, Chris Paul, James Harden and LaMarcus Aldridge on the bench.

Among them, Jimmy Butler will miss the All-Star Game due to injury, and his Bulls teammate Pau Gasol will play in his place; Heat center Chris Bosh was forced out of this year's All-Star Game due to a calf sprain, replaced by Al Horford

The head coach in the East is Tyronn Lue from the Cavaliers, and the West is Gregg Popovich from the Spurs.

The most discussed of these days is the upcoming All-Star Game, an NBA event and the best opportunity to promote the season.

"There should be a lot of beautiful female stars in the All-Star Game, haha, you kid has a good eye." Watson lowered his voice and said to Li Dong, with an expression on his face that you know and I understand.

Li Dong had a righteous face, "What do you say, am I that kind of person?" ”

Watson showed a strange expression, a puzzled expression, "It's strange, I didn't say anything, what kind of person are you?" ”

Li Dong: "......"

……

In the hustle and bustle, the second half began.

Spurs fans still have hope for the team, and although they are one hole behind, it is not particularly impossible to recover 20 points in a league that plays miracles every day.

Li Dong got a chance in the first attack of the second half.

Oladipo rushed into the Spurs' hinterland with Danny Green, threw the ball out again, and transferred it to Li Dong at 45 degrees from the left three-point line. Li Dong made a false shot, but in fact, he made a big breakthrough with his right step, and the changing rhythm caught Leonard off guard, and Li Dong rushed straight in!

"Quick, too fast!" Popovich on the sidelines was nervous and had a bad premonition.

Whew――

Li Dong saw the speed of the storm at the front of the penalty area, and the shoes rubbed violently on the floor, causing a sharp and piercing friction sound.

Aldridge's eyes widened, then he turned and dodged away.

Li Dong Huoran rose into the air, lifted the ball into the air with a straight arm, glided in the air for a distance, and then pressed the ball into the frame with one hand.

67 to 47, Li Dong scored 21 points.

"It's buckled again, this kid has been deducted like this, it's not good for the body." On the Magic bench, Watson smiled and said to a big black man on the side.

There was an envious look in the big black man's eyes, "If I can have this opportunity, I will also deduct it, the kind that uses all my strength." ”

"Joel, don't worry, you are still young, there are opportunities, and the future will definitely be yours." Watson encouraged that the black big man was Joel Embiid, who was traded with Jennings, although he was traded to the Magic, but Enpeter could not play because he was still recovering from an injury, and he had Vucevich, Aaron Gordon, Smith, Frye and others in front of him to steadily occupy playing time.

Embiid's suppressed face relaxed a little when he heard Watson's encouragement.

Usually in the third quarter, Li Dong plays the most excited, and today he is even more hot against the Spurs that he has been hearing about since he was in school.

Sudden points, blocking and dismantling, mid-range emergency stops, Li Dong showed various weapons in the arsenal, and constantly opened up the difference with Team Rocket.

The camera shows Duncan in a suit on the sidelines, and Duncan's expression is serious, as if he is worried about such a difficult situation for the team.

Li Dong played the entire third quarter and scored 29th points, while the Magic led by 23 points 91-68, outscoring the Spurs by a few points in almost every quarter, perfectly demonstrating the same strength as suppression.

In the fourth quarter, Li Dong did not play again, and after the Spurs fought for four minutes with the last mixed lineup of first substitutes, they saw that there was still no hope of chasing points, so they replaced all the substitutes.

Similarly, the Magic have also switched to fringe players.

The spectators watched the final half of the game, and when they saw that it was garbage time, they left the Toyota Center one after another.

When the final whistle sounded, the Magic beat the Spurs by nearly 3o points 102-92, and Li Dong scored 29 points in 27 minutes, which was outrageously efficient.

The camera also always showed Li Dong's face, the yellow-skinned face once again became the brightest star of the San Antonio AT&T Center, and the Spurs also ushered in their first home defeat of the season.

Li Dong walked over to greet Duncan by himself, and the two patted each other on the shoulder after shaking hands.

"Come on, enjoy All-Star Weekend."

Li Dong smiled: "Okay, you can also work hard to recover." ”
