Chapter 609: How the Magic Team Scores
This game is really like a movie, the plot is full of ups and downs and exciting, the Pacers, who are not strong, are also missing two main players and almost completed the counterattack, which is really unexpected. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the end, the Pistons won 108-99 against the Pacers, Osborne scored 40 points in less than three quarters, and Danny Granger of the Pacers easily scored 33 points in today's game, which was the third time in his career that he scored 30 points in a regular season game.
He hadn't been in the league for a long time and didn't have many opportunities to play. But every time it comes to this time, he will step up, so his talent may not be the best, but his ability at this critical moment is really strong, so he will quickly rise to the top and become the boss of the Pacers, but the injury ruined everything for him, and when the injury is healed, the Pacers have long been out of his place, I have to say, this league is still quite cruel.
Three consecutive visits in the East, the Pistons defeated the Celtics and the Pacers with a difficult victory, although it was difficult to win, but after all, the victory was achieved, so the Pistons are now in high spirits, especially Osborne's hand, which is recovering very quickly, and the Pistons' defense is also recovering to its former glory.
For the last opponent of the Eastern Conference three-game Magic, the Magic team has an enviable talent, and since Dwight Howard entered the Magic team, the Magic team has gradually put on the right track, with a large number of talented players, like Dwight Howard, Steve Francis, this Sidutekoglou, Jamil Nelson, DeSean Stevenson.
Such a lineup is enough for them to win many games, but the Magic have not won many games, they are currently ranked 10th in the East, they have not traded their talent for actual records, and if Oscar heard correctly, after the whole season, the Magic's record is 10th in the East and they did not make the playoffs.
However, in another two or three years, the Magic team will be able to soar to the sky, and under the leadership of Dwight Howard, Rashad Lewis, and Hidutke Glou, they eliminated the Cavaliers who were in the limelight and entered the Finals, which is a pity to be taught a lesson by Kobe Bryant, who is at his peak.
Osborne was shocked when he saw the Magic's lineup and was surprised by their record, but he was relieved to see their boss Steve Francis injured.
At the beginning of the game, Dwight Howard was still a laughing teenager, and he did not feel the absence of the team boss at all, let alone affect his smile.
In this game, the Magic sent their new lineup, center Dwight Howard, power forward Tony Barty, small forward DeSean Stevenson, scoring guard Hidutkoglou, point guard temporarily replaced by Jamil Nelson, and Steve Francis was also on the bench in a suit for this game.
The Pistons' side is still their traditional lineup, and Osborne is still playing shooting guard.
At the start of the game, the Pistons were dominated by the anti-visitors, with Richard Hamilton and Osborne hitting three-pointers one after another, and Dwight Howard of the Magic team used his height and weight advantage to crush Ben Wallace and easily score two points.
Osborne was very interested in seeing Dwight Howard now, if he could practice his free throws and interior skills, he would be an epoch-making superstar, but unfortunately his love of laughter will never change.
Osborne is also very optimistic about the Magic, after all, it is a future Finals team, which means that the Magic will become a hindrance for the Pistons.
So for this kind of team that has not grown, Osborne of course tried his best to destroy, when Dwight Howard blocked Ben Wallace, Osborne immediately came to an ultra-long-range three-point shot to respond to Dwight Howard.
Not to be outdone, Hiddo Koglou also responded by hitting a three-pointer near the three-point line at the top of the arc, giving the Pistons a five-point lead over the Magic at 13-8.
From the first quarter, it can be seen that the Magic team has almost no tactics, relying on individual ability to play alone, and the Pistons are the best at dealing with this kind of single-style team.
Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace risked fouls to keep Dwight Howard away from the inside as much as possible, Dwight Howard passively accepted this squeeze, although his body was very strong, but if he wanted to talk about the card position, he couldn't get stuck with Ben Wallace, because Ben Wallace's center of gravity was low so it was very stable, Dwight Howard couldn't even hold him.
But fortunately, Dwight Howard's other teammates stepped up, DeShaun Stevenson broke through Richard Hamilton and scored a layup, and Tony Barty also backed Rasheed Wallace to shoot a two-point shot.
The offensive output of the Magic team is basically outside, and Jamil Nelson's scoring ability is also very strong, although he is usually not very conspicuous, but he is very stable, and basically can contribute nearly 15 points per game, so his entire career can reach 20,000 points, which is a great achievement.
The Pistons' defense is also a phased restriction for them, after all, defense can't always work, there are always a few people who can ignore the defense and force themselves to rely on their own individual ability to score, among the Magic starters, Dwight Howard can do these things, Hiddo Koglou can also force shots to score, Jamil Nelson is also a good scorer.
Fortunately, the Pistons' offense is also very good, Chauncey Billups also followed Jamil Nelson, Jamil Nelson scored a goal, Chauncey Billups also responded with a three-point shot, the two teams played more casually in the first quarter, and the shooting rate was also quite good, the offensive rhythm of both teams was not fast, but the scoring was okay.
After the end of the first quarter, the starters on the Magic side all scored, Dwight Howard 10 points and 4 rebounds, Tony Barty got 5 points, Deshane Stevenson 5 points, Hidutkoglu 4 points, Jamil Nelson 4 points and 3 assists, although there are a lot of scoring points, but they have not been able to exceed the Pistons' scoring in the first quarter, and the scoring ability of the Magic team this season is also a big problem, often the whole game is not more than 100, it is too difficult to win with such a score.
The Pistons scored more or less points except for Ben Wallace, with Osborne scoring 11 points as a core player, Chauncey Billups scoring 7 points and 3 assists, Richard Hamilton scoring 7 points, Rasheed Wallace chipped in 6 points and 4 rebounds, and Ben Wallace grabbed 7 rebounds.
The Pistons led the Magic by 31-28 in the first quarter, and the Magic scored a good score in such a game, but it was all based on individual ability.
