Chapter 629: Magic Dilemma

"Our goal is not to go through the Eastern Conference Finals, no one doesn't want to get the O'Brien Cup, we don't rely on anyone's handouts to get the Eastern Conference Finals tickets, we also rely on our hard work and talent to play step by step, no one will say no to the O'Brien Cup, and we will certainly be no exception."

Orlando's vacant Nelson said to the camera with great confidence: "No one is born a supporting role, the Knicks are strong, but we are not bad, we did have a bad record in the past matchups, but that is all in the past, and now the whole world knows what the Knicks' weaknesses are, we are not the Cleveland Cavaliers." ”

"You're all saying that the Knicks will easily advance to the Finals, but you don't know until you've played the game. We Orlandos have never been cowardly soft-!! ”

Nelson's words were sonorous and very strong.

His voice was also shared by the collective Orlando fans, and Dwight Howard also said in an interview with the media: "Our goal is to win the championship, and that has never wavered. We're going to do our best to defeat the Knicks, and I'm sure God will see Orlando's growth! Last year's nightmare will never be repeated! ”

Dwight Howard's attitude has been very stark.

Their voluntary declaration of war ended the honeymoon period between the two teams once and for all...... Since the second half of the regular season, the two teams have reached a very tacit alliance relationship to some extent. However, as the two teams met each other, this alliance was torn apart.

In the face of the Magic's active provocation, the Knicks did not respond.

Xiao Xiao didn't bother to talk to the people of the Magic team at all. The Magic are no different to him than an NBDL team. He has found the most fundamental weakness of this team. And there's one less outside scorer, so play a ball! They are simply a one-run bombardment team, and the safety of the interior line is almost entirely on Dwight Howard alone. And Dwight Howard, I have Admiral Tyson Chandler to cut off!!

At this moment, what makes Xiao Sa feel a little surprised is that the new Nike advertising copy sent by Adidas, the advertising copy is very exciting...... Failure is not a reason to surrender, failure is the beginning of rebirth. To the enemy of your life, are you ready?

Behind the word "enemy" is the number 24.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is pointing to chic.

Adidas hates this kind of bundle marketing, but there is nothing to be done, who makes Nike have a great No. 24 in the camp. And before the smash came out, the classic 23vs24 matchup often referred to LeBron James vs. Kobe Bryant.

After reading Nike's promotional copy, I couldn't help but think of the picture of LeBron James finding himself and whispering to join the Knicks after being swept, and he was immediately amused, but after the laughter, the corners of his mouth hung with contempt: "It's really a bit shameless!" ”

However, God knows that thing, you know it, I know, even if it is said, as long as LeBron James denies it, there is still no proof of it. can't convince anyone, but will be grabbed by Nike to take advantage of the situation to promote. As a shareholder of Adi. Xiao Xiao didn't want to make a wedding dress for a competitor.

However, this matter can't just be dumbfounded.

Xiao Sao thought about it and sent a sentence in the past, so that the Adi publicity team could treat this sentence as a new copy...... The enemy of life, welcome to fight, 'failure' is enough!

Soon, the Adi team inserted this domineering declaration into the new ad, while also putting the number 23 jersey number on the back of the back of the lifelong enemy.

To return the other way, this trick is upright, as a winner, it should be so domineering, what is it to cower?

After paying tribute to LeBron James, the Knicks drove to the familiar city of Orlando, where they became famous in the playoffs last year. And the Orlando Magic also took the shame on them, and it wasn't until the recent series that they finally found some court and raised their eyebrows.

And they took off the hat of shame and quickly encountered the Knicks who led the chic again, which has to be said to be fate.

It's just that... It's hard to say whether fate will be reincarnated.

Orlando is extremely hopeful that the home team can smash the Knicks in the Water House Center Arena this time, regain their dignity, humiliate them completely, and revive Orlando's heroism!!

Therefore, when the first game came, the center of the water house was full and full, and even thousands of people gathered outside the stadium, such a huge formation can be described as the whole city is looking forward to it.

Orlando's expectation, of course, is that the Knicks will suffer a heavy loss.

In a brief interview at the Orlando airport, Xiao said: "Orlanders should lower their expectations, they have always been defeated in front of the Knicks, and if they have high hopes and the reality is too skinny, I am afraid they will act aggressively." I'd like the Magic to do a good job of security, and of course, maybe the Orlando police have to work hard. ”

The chic words are very tactful, and even have some flavor of persuasion.

However, the meaning of the inside could not be more obvious...... You can't win the Magic, Orlando fans, please be prepared to lose, don't be too disappointed and make a move that a basketball hooligan would do.

Xiao Shao's words obviously did not have the effect he hoped to achieve, and the Orlando people were undoubtedly even more angry after hearing Xiao Shao's words, and their perception was very unanimous, that is, Xiao Shi was too hateful and arrogant! Be sure to teach him a hard lesson! Let him clearly realize that now the Orlando Magic is a strong team that even the Celtics can easily step on the soles of their feet, and they are no longer the losers who were swept in the playoffs last season!!

Kindness is always easy to be regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, after all, loyalty is against the ear!!

The Eastern Conference Finals kicked off on Wednesday night, with the referee throwing the basketball into the sky at half past seven Eastern time. Tyson Chandler and Dwight Howard both jumped to the scrum. Ultimately... Tyson Chandler won the jump ball by a narrow margin with his height and arm length. The basketball was allocated to Xiao Shi by him.

After Xiao Sao took control of the basketball, he moved forward unhurriedly.

The Eastern Conference Finals were broadcast by ESPN, and the T-NT trio went to the Western Conference Finals.

ESPN's commentary box features the familiar Reggie Miller and Jeff Van Gundy as ball commentators, and Eddie Johnson as the host.

Before the game began, the trio made some summaries, and they believed that the Knicks' advantage was a slick and mental advantage, while the Magic's advantage was that the Knicks were not well staffed and could use physical exhaust to make the Knicks more difficult in the second half of the series. Thus winning the entire series.

They believe the Magic should learn from the Cleveland Cavaliers' failures and should start a man-to-man and physical defensive strategy from the first quarter of Game 1.

And in fact, the Magic did the same.

However, for the Magic team, the Knicks' approach is quite simple, the basketball is controlled by Xiao Xian, and the other players are walking in a tactical position, although the Magic players are reluctant to follow, but ...... It looks like he's here for a walk, if he has a puppy. It's no different than going to a park.

The Knicks don't really look down on the Orlando Magic!

That's why they don't bother to pay full attention to it.

This contempt made the Magic team extremely angry. They think that the Knicks are trampling on their dignity by doing so.

However, the Knicks scored in the midst of that rage.

It wasn't the slick who scored the goal, but a sharp break shook off Petrus's defense, and then a hand-to-hand pass was handed to Jeffries, who suddenly cut in diagonally, and blocked the pursuit of Rashad Lewis for him, so... Jeffries easily broke through the penalty area and immediately absorbed Dwight Howard's defensive attention, but the moment Howard took a step, Jeffries hoisted the basketball into the penalty area, and Tyson Chandler easily caught the dunk!!

Tyson Chandler's dunk hit Stan Van Gundy in the heart, and he was a little out of breath in an instant, and he felt that his breath was stagnant.

Did you break down our defense so easily?

Was it so easy to score with a dunk from deep inside our box?

Are we so vulnerable??

Stan Van Gundy's head was full of rhetorical questions.

He thought it was all ridiculous, but he didn't know that the root of all this ridiculousness was because he had never been deeply tuned on the defensive end, and they were able to beat the Celtics because of their style of play, not because of how great their defense was, and they could go toe-to-toe with a team like the Celtics on the defensive end!

While Stan Van Gundy's head was full of rhetorical questions, ESPN's live broadcast room also exclaimed: "The Knicks' first offense was actually a violent dunk in the restricted area, and it was completed so easily?" Xiao organized a three-person attack very comfortably, and the defense of the Magic team was simply undefended in front of him!! ”

"The Knicks have really caught the fatal point of the Magic team, they look very easy, they don't even run much, but once they are running, the Magic team is completely unable to stop it!" Reggie Miller said.

"There is still a certain gap between the Magic team's individual defense and the Cavaliers, and it is much worse in terms of personal defensive quality, and the only ones who can be called defensive giants in the entire Magic team are Petrus and Dwight Howard, one has to defend sloppily, and the other has to take care of the entire restricted area. In the face of the elusive Knicks, this kind of defense is really not enough to see! Moreover, man-to-man defense will widen this hole even more!! Jeff Van Gundy said very seriously and at the same time quite worriedly.

His words directly pointed to the most critical ...... The Magic's defensive literacy can't support a high-intensity man-to-man defense, which will only make their defensive system more leaky. And once the Knicks don't use man-to-man, high-intensity physical contact to drain their physical strength, then it will be difficult for them to win in the regular style of play...... This is like what Comrade Jianfeng said: 'anti-corruption-party, not anti-corruption-country'!

The Knicks didn't do anything, and they had already forced the Magic team to Liangshan.

At this moment, the Magic players finally realized that the game was not as simple as they imagined.

Especially when they returned to the offensive end and encountered the Knicks' defense, they found that they had no way to break through the dense defensive line of the Knicks' structure, and could only swim outside the three-point line, and even if they were outside the three-point line, they still had to be stared at by all kinds of eyeliners, and they were not free for a moment.

This kind of defense is even better than the old guys of the Celtics.

Stan Van Gundy had to move players off the court to block the run, and under his shouting, the basketball was finally taken to the paint by Rashad Lewis, but his jumper missed the basket...... It was Milicic who took care of him!!

Recently, Milicic hooked up with a female model, and she was extremely excited both physically and emotionally.

In this state of excitement, he is often able to do many things that he would not have expected!!

This time, for example, he interfered with a shot from less than two meters away from the basket by Rashad Lewis and shot straight off the court... Not even the Nets!
