Chapter 120: The Rhythm of the Playoffs

At the start of the game, Marcus Cambi jumped the ball to win Verrattidivac, and the Magic were on offense.

The ball came to Anfernee Hardaway's hands, and according to Ricci Addubatu's arrangement, Anfernee Hardaway resolutely began to break through, and as a team that was not strong defensively, the Hornets' response could only be a bag.

Anfernee Hardaway quickly split the ball, and Jonny Lee received the ball from beyond the three-point line. However, there was still a defender in front of him at this time, and Ricky Pierce followed Jonny every step of the way.

According to the previous style of play, once the ball is in Jonny's hands, it will be passed again immediately to find better open opportunities. But this time Jonny is not ready to do this, not only because the opponent is too short, but more importantly, Jonny wants to feel how much offensive pressure is under the defense in the playoffs, whether it is as terrifying as the media has said in the past few days.

Jonny took the ball, and Ricky Pierce stood half a step away and watched Jonny warily.

But then Hornets head coach Dave Cowens chanted from the sidelines: "Ricky, what are you doing!" Stick it up! Stick it up and disturb him! ”

Ricky Pierce followed the sound and taped Jonny.

At this time, Jonny felt that he could only break through, but he looked up to see that Glen Les, who was defending Doug Christie, was looking at him with fierce eyes. Jonny now understands that the opponent is defending one after the other, focusing on his own shots.

Ricky Pierce has a lot of strength, constantly pushing himself up, his movements are somewhat unclean, and his mouth is constantly talking trash talk.

Jonny and Ricky Pierce entangled for a while, watching the time pass minute by minute, he looked at the basket, suddenly a forward dribble, and then pulled back sharply, trying to shake Ricky Pierce, at this moment Glen Les hurriedly wrapped up, Jonny's step-back jumper was interfered with by the two and missed.

Jonny shook his hand and glanced at the referee with some dissatisfaction, there were many defensive moves by Ricky Pierce and Glen Rice that could be judged as fouls, but the referee was indifferent. Jonny thought about it, and he probably knew that the so-called playoffs were more intense and the defensive pressure was greater, perhaps because of this.

Because in the playoffs, the referee whistle is more cautious, so the whistle is wider than in the regular season, resulting in an arrow player like Jonny who is easily targeted by opponents.

Jonny missed the first shot, turned around and was caught off guard on the defensive end, and Ricky Pierce sprinted straight into the box to hit a layup.

Then, Anferne's breakthrough ball was recognized by the bug Boggs in the process of sharing, and the ball was directly broken, and the Hornets added two more points after the fast break.

Then, Marcus Camby's inside single was cut off by the old and spicy Verratti Divac, and the Hornets then hit a three-pointer through Glen Les to score another three, and in just two minutes, the Magic didn't score a point and was beaten 7:0 by the Hornets!

And when the next attack, after Jonny Lee's strong shot failed again, the courtside press box was in an uproar.

"I missed two shots in a row! Is he in bad shape? ”

"Hehe, I think this is his real strength."

"Yes, he's probably another regular-season player, and he'll be in shape as soon as he gets to the playoffs."

Jonny stepped back, thinking about his question, just now he had a glimpse of the situation in the press box, several reporters who had always had a bad relationship with him seemed very excited, foaming at something, Jonny didn't have to guess to know, he must be saying that he was showing his original form or something. But Jonny doesn't feel like he's just a regular-season player, he just hasn't found his playoff rhythm.

The fierce physical confrontation has somewhat affected Jonny's performance, although his physical fitness has been improved by a season of attribute points, it is already better than most NBA players, but it is the first time that Jonny has encountered such a physical confrontation, after all, the opponent uses two to defend him most of the time. And small movements are constant.

Jonny was in a daze on the defensive end, and his defending Ricky Pierce struggled to get the ball, so just a little attention was all it takes. Jonny is now thinking about how to find the rhythm of the playoffs, and so far he still has no good way, running without the ball, and it is difficult to get open opportunities every time without the bonus of R skills, especially the Hornets' defensive method, which defends him with multiple people. No matter how Jonny runs, the Hornets can always split a player to defend Jonny alone, and then turn it into a double bag the moment Jonny gets the ball.

Jonny thought about all the skills of the three heroes he could use now, and suddenly his eyes lit up, the E skills of the Picheng policewoman, 90 caliber rope nets, and emergency stop jump shots, may be able to solve the current problem.

The Magic blocked the Hornets' attack, Marcus Camby grabbed the rebound, Jonny asked for the ball on the spot, rushed forward with the ball, and then activated the E skill of the Leather City Policewoman, rushed two steps in a row, and Jonny made a stop-and-go jump shot!

The Hornets' defenders were clearly a little out of action, and Ricky Pierce, who was defending Jonny, could only watch as Jonny raised his hand to throw the ball.

Swish! Ball in!

"The ball is in! Jonny Lee's pull-up jumper, which was the Magic's first goal of the game, is hopefully Jonny Lee's goal can help them find their groove in this game. ”

If Jonny could hear what the narrator said, Jonny would have said with great disdain: "Status? I've found it! ”

That's right, Jonny has found his form and found his rhythm for the playoffs. And at this time, Jonny was very excited, because the goal just now was very historic, it was Jonny's first playoff goal, he beat his chest hard, released his passion, and infected his teammates.

The next attack of the Magic, Jonny concocted a pull-up jump shot and hit again.

Of course, Jonny also knew that the move could not be used old, so after he defended against the Hornets' attack, he came to another Q skill of the Infinite Sword Master, a European step, rushed into the restricted area and hit a pick-and-roll on the head of Verratti Divac.

Jonny succeeded in consecutive singles and gradually found his touch.

"Huh!" Outside the three-point line, Jonny raised his hands in the air, and it was his first three-pointer of the game!

"Three points from Jonny Lee! Entered! It was his first three-pointer of the game, which was bad news for the Hornets, and everyone knows how perverted Jonny Lee's three-pointer can be if he shoots it. ”

"That's right, in fact, Jonny Lee has been on a rampage, since the beginning of the Hornets beat the Magic a 7:0, the Magic has relied on Jonny Lee's consecutive points to pull back the difference, if the Hornets still can't find a way to deal with Jonny, this game may be decided." The commentators sang about the Wasp, and in fact Dave Cowens was in a hurry right now, walking back and forth on the sidelines, giving orders to the arena from time to time.
