Chapter 19: The Three Rains of Magic
After 7:0, the Magic called a quick timeout, and after only a minute of the opening period, Chuck Daley couldn't stand it. The initials of the new domain name Kele Novel Network (k1xsw), the largest free romance Chinese website, hurry up.
Both sides on the court were surprised by the timeout, after all, the game had just begun, and although the Celtics had already scored seven points, the game was actually only a minute away. However, in Kevin Harlan's opinion, Chuck Daley's timeout was very timely.
"Chuck Daley called a timeout, a very timely timeout, if he didn't shout, then the Magic would definitely collapse in the first quarter, Anthony Walker's Hu Lai and the low morale of the Magic will make the Magic quickly fall behind, but it's hard to say now, after all, Chuck Daley is one of the best head coaches in the league, and he can help the Magic get back into shape."
The timeout passed quickly, the two sides came back from a timeout, Anthony Walker looked very unhappy, maybe just Chuck Daly reprimanded him harshly, Jonny just glanced at the fat head who shouted before the game to make the Celtics regret it, and then didn't care. Jonny himself feels that Anthony Walker and himself are not the same level of players, such as in this game, Jonny has already scored 5 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist and 1 steal, and Anthony Walker's statistics say 2 shots and 0 hits.
It can be said that the Magic was beaten 7:0 by the Celtics at the beginning, which is Anthony Walker's fault!
The game restarted, the Magic's offense, and Anthony Walker still didn't seem to pick up on his previous mistakes, taking Chuck Daley's reprimand as a deaf ear. While the rest of the Magic's players are working very hard with Chuck Daley's encouragement. But Anthony Walker still has to prove himself, although he can't prove it at all, but Anthony Walker, who can't recognize himself, doesn't believe in evil.
This wave of offense. Although it was Darryl Armstrong who took the ball at the beginning, because of Jonny's defense, Darryl Armstrong had to share the ball again, and Anthony Walker received the ball and threw it, which surprised the players on the Magic side, and this ball naturally popped out of the frame, and Anthony Walker is not the kind of player who has no solution on the offensive end. This is true even at the peak.
At best, he's an all-around striker who can shoot and shoot. can grab rebounds and pass the ball, but if you compare it to the current Jonny, it's simply far behind.
Once again, the Magic's offense was unfavorable, allowing the Celtics to find a fast break. But Chuck Daley can become the head coach on par with Phil Jackson, and his ability is naturally undoubted, and he has already laid out a fast-break method against the Celtics during the timeout just now.
When Anthony Walker shot, the Magic's two guards began to run towards their backcourt, and the Celtics obviously couldn't do that, after all, at the moment when Anthony Walker shot, they were still defenders and couldn't afford to lose their defensive positions.
So this wave of fast break seems to be impossible to carry out in the retreat of the Magic's two guards.
When Ben Wallace made a long biography. When he passed the snatched basketball to Jonny, who rushed forward at high speed, something surprising happened to the fans, and Jonny took the ball and rushed forward. When he was still one step away from the three-point line, in the surprise of everyone, he directly shot a three-pointer!
And Doug Christie, who was standing about three steps in front of Jonny, was even more surprised, he didn't expect Jonny to shoot three points directly in that position! Now the Magic can only pray that the goal is not scored.
But then, a crisp thump! It's actually in!
Three points over long distance!
The ball went straight through the white net and hit the ground hard. There was a thud in the silent arena, as if a basketball had hit the hearts of a Magic player. Doug Christie: They're almost desperate! Jonny is already so strong! You can score as much as you want. And this ultra-long-range three-pointer once again shattered the confidence that the Magic had just built.
“10:0! Could it be that the Magic are going to lose at the beginning of the game? It's only been a little over a minute since the start of the game, is it so boring? ”
"Jonny's ultra-long-range three-point shot is simply handsome, amazing! The Magic has been stunned in place, and if the Magic loses this game, then the biggest sinner should be Anthony Walker, followed by John Gabriel who did not come to the scene, the Magic should regret trading with the Celtics, although the game has just begun, but the gap between Anthony Walker and Jonny Lee is not a star and a half. ”
Soon, the Magic finally scored, after three consecutive misses, Anthony Walker finally did not dare to continue, this time the Magic finally played their tactical cooperation this season, Marcus Camby pulled to the high post to make a block for Darryl Armstrong, attracting the Celtics' defense, but Denis Scott's counterrun was ignored by the Celtics.
In the end, Darryl Armstrong's split shot allowed Denis Scott to hit a three-pointer, and the Magic finally cleared the ground.
But tonight is destined to belong to Jonny's night, after Denis Scott hit a three-point shot, the Celtics quickly sent a baseline ball, Jonny quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, without making any adjustments, and directly returned a chase three-point! With a bang, the difference became 10 points again!
And Kevin Harlan couldn't help but shout: "Another three-pointer, this is last season's Jonny Lee!" The implication is actually that it refers to Jonny's style of play in the last game, breaking through and breaking through again, and this game is obviously Jonny used the three-point shot he is really good at, and two three-pointers in a row are about to make the Magic desperate.
And then, the rhythm of the game was controlled by the Celtics, and the Magic began to try various defensive methods to defend Johnny, but it didn't work, Johnny can always find various ways to score, and now Johnny is no longer the Johnny of last season, and now Johnny is a player who has no dead ends in attack.
Shooting, especially mid-to-long range shooting, Jonny can be considered the strongest in the league. And after getting the Butcher of the Desert, Jonny's breakthrough has become invincible. The template of the Butcher of the Desert is LeBron James, a star who has ruled an era, no one can really defend when he breaks through, in order to prevent James, even ** Vicky can only formulate a two-step defensive method, obviously knowing that he can't prevent LeBron James's breakthrough. And now that Jonny has also made such a breakthrough, he is naturally a little invincible.
Of course, this kind of straight-up breakthrough is also very physically demanding, and in the last game, Jonny used this breakthrough for the whole game, and the result was tired and half dead.
And in this game, Jonny has learned to balance and use several of his abilities, three points plus breakthroughs, and the magic can't stop it at all!
At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics had already led the Magic with a score of 37:**, and the 20-point difference was almost desperate!
And Jonny scored 18 points alone, and also delivered 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block of all-round super data, which made the reporters and experts on the scene exclaim that John Gabriel is going to regret committing suicide! This is a buggy player! And the data that Anthony Walker only scored 4 points on 1-of-6 shooting in the first quarter made these expert reporters think so.
With a big lead in the first quarter, the Celtics seemed very relaxed, while the Magic side was not good, everyone was very serious, and the coaches on both sides were quickly arranging the tactics of the second quarter.
"Jonny, you rest first in the second quarter, Dana comes on, continue to attack quickly, and try to crush the opponent in the first half!" Rick Pitino has long seen that Jonny is tired, and in the first quarter, he scored 18 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Jonny nodded, and sat down on the bench.
When Jonny didn't play in the second quarter, Chuck Daley thought it was a chance for the Magic and immediately shouted from the sidelines.
"More success rates! We're going to close the score! We're going to chase the score! ”
And here Rick Pitino also behaved very seriously, Jonny is a challenge for the Celtics, the last game was because of Jonny's break, almost let the Celtics collapse, and this game, in the case of Jonny had to rest, Rick Pitino was very worried, although the Celtics are now leading by 20 points.
But the Celtics can win by 20 points in the first quarter, and the Magic can win by 20 points in the second quarter, it just depends on the play. What's more, Rick Pitino wants the team to end this game as soon as possible, after all, the Celtics still have a tough game to play a day later, and they will face tough opponents New York Knicks on the road.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Celtics were attacking, Dana Barros rushed in, and then hit a throw, Rick Pitino breathed a sigh of relief, obviously the most important player on the court, Dana Barros was in good shape, this throw was hit by Mark Price's defense.
But then, the Magic quickly moved the ball, and Mark Price, who had just come on the court, hit a three-pointer, which made Rick Pitino's heart tighten again, after all, the three points of the Magic bench group are very powerful, and if they don't get it right, it will rain three-pointers, and for the Celtics, if the Magic rains three-pointers, it will be a disaster.
Then, the Celtics wanted to return a three-pointer, Danabaros forced a three-point shot and missed, and Rick Pitino stood on the sideline and yelled. After all, Dana Barros is not Jonny, he doesn't have such a wayward right.
Then, the Magic's offense was back in motion, and they took Anthony Walker off the starting lineup at the start of the second quarter, and their offense was immediately fluid. In fact, it's not that Chuck Daley is disappointed in Anthony Walker, it's just that in this game, in the face of his old club, Anthony Walker's mentality is a little unbalanced.
And when the Magic once again got an open spot through a quick transfer of the ball, and the Celtics veteran David Wesley hit a three-pointer, Rick Pitino secretly screamed in his heart, and the Magic seemed to be about to rain three-pointers! (To be continued)
