The new season's Magic team is becoming more and more mature under the tandem of the Turk Tekoglu, and Howard's inside and outside will bring the Magic team to the course of victory, 17-7, this is the Magic's record in the new season, ranking fourth in the East, Tekoglu ushered in the peak of his career, and the term "forward" was vividly interpreted 18 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, this is the data handed over by the Turks, and the team leader Big Boy's Monster Howard is averaging 21 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks per game Dominating data, Howard is a near-inexplicable presence for the Clippers inside, and everyone is looking forward to this game.

On December 20, the Amway Center, home of the Orlando Magic, was packed.

In the dressing room of the away team, Gu Fei was facing a large group of reporters asking, "Gu, who do you think can win the game between the two sides?" ”

Gu Fei pouted and said: "Of course, I hope we win, but it is conceivable that the game will not be so easy, Howard and Tekoglou are a difficult combination to deal with, we will be tested, but I believe we will be the final winner." After a pause, he looked at the reporter in front of him, "I don't like to lose, so we have to win"

"Gu, we all know that the Clippers' interior is a relatively weak place, and against a dominant center like Dwight Howard, do you think your teammates can hold the interior?"

"I'm never worried about that, the stats don't tell everything, just like some players get 50 points and still lose games, even if someone can get horrible stats on our inside, I don't think my teammates didn't contribute to the victory, the Clippers are a team team, and the team's victory comes from the hard work of every player." Gu Fei answered this question skillfully, but Gu Fei ignored the question of losing the game by fifty points in the answer he had just answered, and threw himself to the opposite side of some people, especially under the deliberate understanding of reporters.

Howard, the home team's locker room, was also in the pre-game interview on the other side and ran into almost the same problem.

"Dwight, who do you think will win this fight?"

“why。 Of course the Magic won, there's no doubt about that," Howard replied with a look of disbelief that was accompanied by a slightly mischievous tone that amused all the reporters in front of him.

"Dwight, where does your confidence come from? Your own dominance or? ”

"Of course it's my team, we're a good team with a great coach, so we're going to win"

A big reporter put the recorder in front of Howard's mouth and asked, "Everybody knows the Clippers' interior is a weakness, and you're going to take advantage of that." And then lead the team to victory? What stats do you think you can achieve from this game? ”

"Tyson is an excellent center, the Clippers' interior line is not as weak as imagined, I will not be careless, I will do my best to play, the data is not important, the important thing is that the team wins the final victory" Howard just finished saying and suddenly slapped his head with his right hand "I prefer the feeling of beating Gu, I have to let him invite me to dinner, I have made a bet with him who loses and who treats, I am a poor bastard." So I don't have room to lose."

After the pre-game warm-up, the game officially entered the preparation stage, and the cheering sound of the Amway Center almost shattered the eardrums of the Clippers.

Gu Fei and Howard, the cores of both teams, are full of fighting spirit, and onlookers are full of anticipation for this game.

"The core of them is the Turk, he's the center of everything for the Magic, and the ball is normally in his hands, so Ron you have a lot of work to do today, defend that Turk," Mike Dunleavy said as he looked at Artest. Artest nodded heavily, his heart full of confidence.

"Tyson. Pay attention to fouls and don't reach out easily, just stand up straight, you are the team's interior defensive barrier, don't jump up easily, that monster doesn't have much skill, I believe you can deal with it"

……

With a whistle blowing. The much-anticipated East-West focus battle has officially begun.

Dwight Howard jumped almost at the same time as the basketball was thrown into the air by the referee, and the super bounce advantage was particularly evident at this moment, although Tyson Chandler was also a physical center, but was immediately dwarfed by Howard's inhuman performance.

"I thought Tyson was going to put Dwight under some pressure, and it turned out to be another no-brainer jump. To beat Howard on the jump ball, I think he's the only one in the league. Bill Wharton said.

"Yes, Bill senior, this sentence is not wrong at all, it's like trying to win Gu on three points, it's almost impossible, the Clippers' interior line will be seriously tested today, looking at Tyson's body, I doubt it, Mike Dunleavy must have thought of this, not surprisingly, tonight's Clippers' offense will be opened from Gu Fei on the outside." Charles Barkley said to Wharton with a flattering face, but everyone could see that there was a lot of this kind of performance.

"Charles seems to have a lot of truth in what you said, but it's nothing, everyone knows Dwight's interior defense, do you know that Dwight is like a mountain standing there and still crashing into himself? The biggest similarity between the Magic and the Clippers is the accuracy of the outside, this season the Los Angeles Clippers are averaging 10.4 three-pointers per game to rank first in the league, and behind the Clippers is their opponent today, the Orlando Magic, who averaged 9.5 three-pointers per game, what do we think of? A gorgeous three-point rain competition? Hoffman gave his opinion.

It was at this time that the Magic threw the first three-pointer of the game, and Howard received the ball and immediately passed the ball after attracting the bag, and Tekoglou received the ball and threw it.

"The Turks took the lead in the three-point rain, Rashad Lewis, Tekoglu, Jamal Nelson, and Petrus all have good three-point ability, if they can't contain the inside and outside cooperation, let the Magic shoot away, this game will be difficult to play, and the same Magic team defense should also pay attention to the Clippers also have Gu, Ron Artest, JR Steve, four people have good three-point shooting ability" Just when Bill Wharton was analyzing the game, Andre Miller passed the ball in his hand to Gu Fei at the left three-point line.

Skilled dribbling made Petrus, known as "French Jordan", dare not take it lightly, this season came to the Magic team and quickly became the team's starter, and his task in addition to the occasional three-point is to defend the opponent's scorer, the Magic team played well in the new season with part of the credit from Petrus.

"Expect Gu to return the favor to Orlando a precise three-pointer," Barkley said with a smile.

Gu Fei didn't dare to hold it up, since these people would be crowned as defensive experts by people in the league, there must be something unique, after careful looking, Gu Fei moved, and after two seductive forward changes in a row deceived Petrus's defensive center of gravity a little, Gu Fei flicked his right wrist and the basketball passed through his crotch like a happy elf, kicked the floor with his right foot, and at the same time received the ball with his left hand, and the entire passing action was completed in one go from changing direction to feints to finally accelerating to get rid of the defense.

Petrus was shocked, he didn't expect that he would be broken through by Gu Fei so quickly, when Petrus was annoyed, Gu Fei's speed had completely added up, from forty-five degrees to the inside line, Lashad Lewis, who had joined the Magic with a maximum salary contract of 100 million yuan in the offseason, did not dare to relax in the slightest, and immediately grabbed Gu Fei's offensive line to make up for Gu Fei.

"Beautiful, Petrus looked helpless in the face of Gu Fei's breakthrough."

"Rashad has an excellent sense of defense, and Mr. Billions is proving to Otis that he has more than just a good touch," Hoffman quipped, and Otis Smith, the general manager of the Magic team in the box, smiled a little when he saw Lewis's defense. You must know that snatching Lewis with a 100 million yuan contract made him instantly synonymous with brain damage, although his trade signing in the Magic team for several years was basically a loss, but compared to this signing, Lewis put pressure on him to be equal to a big deal.

Gu Fei looked at Lewis who was blocked in his offensive line, his eyes became sharp, and his upper body shook to Lewis's left side, just when Lewis moved his center of gravity with his nerve reflex, his left foot was the axis, and his right hand turned around violently, and at the same time held the ball with both hands, this turn gave people a feeling of flowing water, after Gu Fei completed a 180-degree turn, his feet jumped up and down, his body leaned back a little in the air, and the lateral distance between him and Lewis was already one meter away. When Lewis reacted and tried to defend, it was too late, so he could only watch Gu Fei throw the ball steadily.

Gu Fei's more standard and beautiful shot, which was more standard than textbooks, made Lewis think that the ball must be scored, and the fact was just as he thought, the basketball crossed an arc and plunged into the basket.

The Clippers' first offense also went smoothly, 2:3. (To be continued.) )
