Chapter 438: The Crazy Return of the Feel
After Zhong Yu's drifting layup, the arena was silent again.
As soon as they booed Chung-wook, the guy was able to shoot successfully, so some of the players put away their boos for fear of helping Chung-wook score again.
In the first quarter that followed, the Hornets and the Magic basically fought a positional battle.
Originally, the Hornets were better at positional warfare than the Magic, after all, they are quite accomplished in this area, and they also have a very amazing point guard.
But when they first started the positional battle, they couldn't beat the Magic team, because the Magic team's hit rate was greatly improved. Facing a Magic team with a very high shooting percentage, the Hornets can only attack and kill.
But today, Zhong Yu's mid-range shooting and three-point shooting percentage are a little bit tricky." He amassed four missed jumpers in the first quarter." This is put on Zhong Yu, who can score an average of 52 points per game in the Western Region finals, and it is not like that.
In the first quarter, Zhong Yu scored a total of 10 points, but all of them relied on free throws and breakthroughs.
Fortunately, Zhong Yu adjusted quickly, and after he saw that his shooting percentage had a little problem, he chose to break through the ball, and his breakthrough power increased a lot, and the breakthrough point was often successful.
So in the first quarter, Zhong Yu's stats were 10 points and 3 assists.
The number of assists is quite a lot, you must know that although he scored (6) 4 points in the last game, he only had 3 assists in the whole game.
At the end of the first quarter, the score of the Hornets and Magic was 27-29, and the Hornets led the Magic by 2 points.
However, in the eyes of the Magic players, the game finally showed the dawn of Zhongyu's shooting percentage!
And the drop is not small.
So far in this game, he has only hit one shot.
Although it is not known what happened to Jongwook, this situation is always very useful for the Magic team. So, the fans of the Magic team are very happy.
It's just that they don't know that Zhong Yu's not-so-high hit rate can continue to know more." After all, this person is too demonic.
His hit rate came as soon as he said it, and no one dared to take it lightly.
At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the two teams fought for a while with the bench lineup, and then switched to the main lineup, and it is worth celebrating for Magic fans that Zhong Yu's mid-range shooting percentage is still not high, and he only shot a step-back jumper in the second quarter...... "This is indeed a little pale compared to his performance of shooting ten three-pointers in a previous game."
However, he still has a lot of breakthroughs, making it difficult for the Magic team to defend, and his breakthrough points can cause a very big breakdown, although the Magic team occupies the advantage that Zhong Yu's hand feeling is not too good today, but they still haven't recovered the score, and even just rely on their gradually warming three-point shooting rate to keep the score at 58-54, and they are still 4 points behind the Hornets.
It seems that there is indeed a gap in strength between the Magic team and the Hornets.
In the first half, Jongwook scored 14 points and 5 assists, and the assist statistics were very good, but his scoring was not too high.
Compared to Zhong, Paul scored 12 points and six assists in the first half, and his score was a little more convincing.
"Zhong Yu, you strengthen the breakthrough! Wait until you find your grip before pulling away and shooting. Scott said this to Zhong Yu in the locker room, and Zhong Yu did not refute it, in this case, the most suitable for him is, of course, a breakthrough.
It's just that in the first quarter of the game, Zhong Yu's physical strength was exhausted a lot, because he had too many dunks...... And he also broke through a lot in the second quarter, which made his physical strength deplete rapidly.
The game officially began in the third quarter, and the Magic fans were waiting for Zhong Yu to be dumbfounded, and then the Magic team seized the opportunity to stab the Hornets' chrysanthemum flower directly. …,
At the beginning of the quarter, the Magic's three-point shooting percentage was getting higher and higher, and they finally hit a scoring high, and with four minutes left in the quarter, their score became 70-72, and the Hornets were outscored by two ......."
This is still relying on the cooperation of Zhong Yu and Paul.
"After Jongwook's shooting rate dropped, it was very difficult for the Hornets to directly open the opponent's big score."" Some fans commented.
Indeed, the Hornets' scoring ability did slip after missing Jong-wook's shooting percentage.
Jongwook has 20 points and six assists so far, but nine of those 20 points have come from the free throw.
The Hornets had just been overtaken by two points, and now the ball was back in their hands, and the Hornets were under a lot of pressure, and now the Magic's three-point shooting percentage has improved, and once the Hornets still miss the shot, they will have another three-pointer." The margin immediately widened to 5 points.
So, Paul played solid as well, he controlled the ball and bypassed West, got rid of Nelson, and then he suddenly accelerated and rushed inside. Paul, who has not yet injured his knee, has a impact on the interior that will make many teams tremble.
Lewis came up to block, and Paul faked a pass and went straight into the depths of the inside!
Howard rushed at once, and Paul was dead with the ball.
At that moment, Paul made a quick decision, jumped up, turned around in the sky to find the position of his teammates, and he saw that Zhong Yu on the outside was released into a gap! Suddenly, the basketball was sent out without hesitation.
Although it is said that Zhong Yu's mid-to-long-range shooting rate is unsatisfactory so far in this game, Paul is still the easiest and most willing to believe Zhong Yu in his heart.
Zhongyu received a pass from Paul and jumped directly!
Although his shooting percentage in this game is not very high, when he should shoot himself, he will never have any reservations!
Conteny hurriedly caught up, although Zhong Yu's hit rate was not high so far, he didn't dare to let Zhong Yu go at all.
But he was still too late......
"No in, no in, no in!" Many Magic fans are still backing up Chung Yuk's missed shots just now, shouting that they hope Zhong Yu misses......
However one
"Whew!".Basketball punctures the basket! Zhong Yu hit the second three-pointer of the game, and his personal score rose to flying points!
The fans of the Missileville team looked at each other for a moment, why did this kid feel like a three-point shooter, and it looked like he was back again?
If that's the case...... Then the situation is very complicated.
The Magic team then attacked, and the outside of Tekogluyan was a three-point shot, but it was covered by Aerriza! Auriza, who had covered the basketball, saw that Zhong Yu had run the farthest and immediately passed the basketball to him.
After receiving the pass, Zhong Yu planned to drive all the way into the inside line, but when he saw that someone from the Magic team retreated to the basket in time, a very bold idea suddenly rose in his heart......
So, as soon as he stopped outside the three-point line, he jumped and shot......
The players of the Magic team didn't react at all, who would have thought that Zhong Yudu had just hit this kind of shot, and still dared to shoot? Did he think that just after hitting a three-pointer, the feeling of the hand was completely back?
But......
"Whew!", it was the sound of a basketball piercing the net!
Many of the fans at the scene choked on their saliva, and suddenly ......, "There were a lot of coughing sounds in the whole stadium."
Chung Wook hit another three-pointer and the total score was 76-72.
The Hornets overtake the Magic!
"Well done! You're finally back! Paul saw that Zhong Yu's chasing three-point shot was still available, and he high-fived Zhong Yu excitedly and shouted loudly.
"Yes, it's back!", Zhong Yu knew that he had basically regained his sense of hand. …,
Maybe it's not as against the sky as in the previous games, but at least it can make him score easily.
The ball was back in the hands of the Magic, who hit a three-pointer from the outside and the score was 76-75.
The overlapping scores of the two teams were so thrilling that cheers rang out from the entire arena for the Magic's goal.
Basketball returned to the Hornets' side, Paul controlled the ball past half court, and then passed directly to Zhong Yu, Zhong Yu faced Contney, there was not much nonsense, a strong pull changed direction and then passed Conteney and went inside.
Howard immediately prepared to defend Zhong Yu, but Zhong Yu controlled the ball and hit the place near the bottom line, so he didn't continue to move forward, but the whole person jumped directly, leaned back, and then, the basketball left his hands!
Conteny couldn't defend against such a drift back, but Chung-wook's jumper still left many Magic players with some luck...... In this game, Zhong Yu's jumper in this position failed.
But luck is a fluke psychology in his heart after all, Zhong Yu's basketball once again turned into the net.
"Huh!" , two points and another hit! The score became 78-75.
After that, the two teams scored each other, and Jongwook also relied on free throws to score two points, and the time quickly came to the end of the third quarter of the game, with only the last ten seconds left!
The basketball was in Paul's hands, he advanced to the front court with the ball, stood outside the three-point line and changed direction in front of two bodies in a row, and hit the inside, and when there were 6 seconds left, he passed the basketball out and into Zhong Yu's hands.
Zhong Yu received the pass, faced Turkoglou, who also caught up with Contenny, shook two times in a row, and then jumped up directly, and it was another backward jumper!
Zhong Yu's backward jumper is very large!
It looked so thrilling to the eyes of the others that he almost fell to the ground......
However, the basketball still flew to the basket with Zhong Yu's strength and Zhong Yu's will, and flew far away!
"Huh!" , the red light is on! Jongwook's basketball also shot into the basket again!
It's three points again!
The score turned to 85-77, and the Hornets led the Magic by eight points into the final quarter......
