Chapter 234: Old Spicy
The Magic won away against the Hawks and pulled one back!
This message is still extremely strong in the playoffs, you know, the Hawks were the team that reached the Eastern Conference Finals last year, and the Magic are just a new Young Guard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The process of the game was very simple, the two teams killed half a pound and eight taels in the first quarter, and the magic suddenly broke out in the second quarter, and a group of young players rushed back and forth, and immediately beat the magic front to pieces. In the second half of the third quarter, the Magic players led by Li Dong were imposing, and they continued to complete steals, fast breaks and dunks, which were exciting defenses or offenses, and in the fourth quarter, the Hawks never pulled the score back.
The Orlando fans couldn't be more relieved, and the arrogant Atlanta fans couldn't say anything more, the facts were right in front of them.
"Let's talk about sweeping! Sweep and show me! "The fans on both sides of the forum are talking to each other, and now it's the Orlando fans who are raising their eyebrows, and who says we're going to lose?
The Hawks fans were also a little lacking in momentum, losing at home to the Magic, and the whole series became dangerous.
At the same time, the Cavaliers 2-0 Pacers, the Clippers 2-0 Trail Blazers, the Spurs 2-0 Grizzlies, the Heat 2-0 Celtics, such as the Mavericks and the Magic all pulled back one game.
Of the eight matchups in the entire playoffs, only two were 1-1, and the remaining six were 2-0.
At this time, the various awards of the league's regular season began to be released.
The first is the Best Rookie Award.
The player who won the Rookie of the Year award received a trophy called "Eddie Gottlieb," which is named after the 76ers head coach who won the championship in 1946-47.
The award is voted on by sports journalists across the United States and Canada, and each judging panel can write three players, with the first player scoring five points, the second place scoring three points, and the third place winning one point. The player with the highest final score is the winner of Rookie of the Year.
In the end, Li Dong won the award, but he did not get all 121 first-place votes, and some reporters voted for Downs.
If it's in another season. With Downs' average of 18.3 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game, he must have been unanimously voted the Rookie of the Year. But this season there is a Li Dong, who averages 24.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.6 blocks per game, and his data is not much different from him, and if the record is compared. The Magic are currently inseparably fifth in the East and the Hawks are in the third, and the Timberwolves are third from the bottom in the West and have now gone home to fish en masse.
The award is not low, and the last Magic player to win the Rookie of the Year title was Mike Miller. One of the non-American-born players in NBA history who won the Rookie of the Year title is Pau Gasol. One is Tim Duncan.
With so many halos shining, Li Dong became the first Asian player to eat crabs. It is both an encouragement and a spur.
The best defensive player went to Leonard, and the big boy was elected the second year and is now red and purple.
Then there was the most improved player, the Trail Blazer's McCollum, who was undoubtedly elected. The Sixth Man of the Year was taken away by Crawford, and the Lama reached the peak of his career that year, as a bench player who was able to score 14.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists. Blind the eyes of a bunch of experts.
The most important is the selection of the Most Valuable Players of the regular season, and the eyes of the world are focused on this most valuable trophy.
Who will be the winner of the NBA's 15-16 Most Valuable Player award?
In the end, Stephen Curry defeated Leonard, James and other Mesozoic stars, and even the MVP!
Curry's election is also reasonable, and the Warriors' performance this year is indeed very amazing, with the morale of winning the championship last season, this season broke the Bulls' record of 72-10 in the 95-96 season. Curry, as the engine of the Warriors, can contribute 25+7 stats every night. And his dexterous breakthrough and ultra-long three-point shooting have become the Warriors' signature, and I don't know how many fans like him for this.
April 23, Amway Arena, Orlando.
Li Dong and his teammates returned to their home stadium. Fans in Orlando prepared signs and badges early, and the team's office was arranged to distribute white playoff jerseys to every fan in attendance.
By the time the evening game began, the entire Amway Arena was a white expanse, more spectacular than the green sea of the Green Shirts.
Everyone felt that the Eagles would definitely change their formation in this game. At least in terms of strategy against Li Dong, it shouldn't be like a forever wrap-up, because the second game proved that in addition to Li Dong, other players of the Magic can also stand up.
And the game, as expected by the outside world, the eagles let go of Li Dong's bag.
Li Dong noticed the Eagles' change in defensive strategy against him, decisively increased his independent offense, and played aggressively from the first quarter of the game.
He is also very efficient, hitting several goals in a row, but other Magic players don't have such a good feeling, and after balancing, the two teams are still running together.
Li Dong scored 13 points and 2 rebounds in the first quarter, and Skyles watched Li Dong kill in all directions, not knowing what kind of medicine Budenholzer was selling.
After a break in the second quarter, Li Dong was more efficient, hitting two three-pointers from outside the three-point line, breaking through the inside to cause damage, and before halftime, he actually scored 25 points alone, and the Magic was able to lead the Hawks 47-41 at halftime.
The media are crazy, this rookie is too fierce, this rhythm is going to cut 50 points in the playoffs!
Budenholzer is also under a lot of pressure, he didn't expect that he would be so powerful after letting go of Li Dong, all kinds of jumpers after breakthroughs are dazzling, if Li Dong plays like this throughout the game, then he doesn't have to play the game, he kneels ironcladly.
Fortunately, Li Dong's hand felt decreased in the third quarter, and the overall offensive efficiency also declined, and the Magic lost to the Hawks by 10 points in this quarter, and Li Dong only scored 6 points but used a lot of shots.
By the fourth verse. After overtaking the Eagle, Li Dong's physical strength dropped to a pole, but when his physical strength was lower, he found his offensive rhythm again, and in the fourth quarter, he burst out and shot outside, causing Horford to foul for the fifth time on the inside, and hit a long-range shot from the outside.
When it came to the critical moment, he also made several key shots that blew up the Amway Arena.
The two teams fought until the last minute, Korver hit a key three-pointer, Li Dong also responded, Millsap forced Li Dong with his back and completed a step-back jumper, and the Hawks were able to score consecutive goals in the last minute, and the Magic never tied the score.
In the end, the Hawks won the Magic 99-93 away by 6 points, and Li Dong scored 46 points alone, including 15 points in the fourth quarter.
