Thank you Huaiyu for the big monthly ticket, thank you for the big reward from the center and kmjkj!

"What's the biggest news in the U.S. during this time?" Bobby. Brown snapped his fingers.
"If you don't know, all I can say is that you're not really gossip lovers, especially for Wood, who is known as a newsmaker. Lin is not respectful. β
Bobby. Brown pointed with his hand, and a picture of Lin Sen appeared on the LED screen behind him.
It's just that Lin Sen on the screen rarely showed anger in front of reporters, and Lin Sen in such a situation rarely appeared.
"Yes, you read that right, this man who has been chosen by women all over the world as the most desired male companion Wood. Lin rarely got angry with reporters.
Don't think it's my peers who him off, maybe I should say sorry to my colleagues who cover sports because I had to cover Wood. Lin's News. β
"From the moment the Orlando Magic beat the Atlanta Hawks on March 10 to become the first to secure a playoff spot this season, the nightmare haunted them.
Magic's main center, a new generation of popular kings, is considered by the NBA to be the most capable of replacing Shaq Entertainment Worldwide's Dwight. Howard was embroiled in a private life scandal.
From illegitimate children to chaotic private lives to the most hated and underage opening incidents, Dwight became a negative character in an instant.
Although Dwight has gradually come out of the scandalous images in the past half a month, of course, there are rumors that he used $2 million to gag the mouths of the two girls, and we have no way of knowing the truth of this matter.
But what we do know is that this scandal has caused the Orlando Magic, who have been in solid form this season and are known as the most likely to win the championship, into a storm. The team's chemistry has changed as a result. β
Bobby. Two Eastern Conference standings appeared on the LED screen behind Brown: "This is the Orlando Magic's March 10 win over the Hawks, 49-9 and the league's No. 1 standings." Three wins ahead of second-placed Boston Celtics. β
"This is the Eastern Standings as of today, March 28. The team in first place has changed, with the Orlando Magic, who had led the league for four and a half months, falling to second place in the East, while the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are third in the East, are just one win away from the Orlando Magic.
And their record has become 52-15, what does that mean? They only have 3 wins and 6 losses in those 28 days, which is a terrible number.
And Wood. Forest's anger stemmed from yesterday's home loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, Wood scored 38 points last night and staged a pull-up jumper in the final minute to give Philadelphia only 1.3 seconds, but unfortunately in the final moments, Philadelphia relied on Iguodala to complete an empty dunk on the sideline to achieve the final Orlando.
This made Wood, who worked hard all over the field. Lin felt angry, and the team's poor form during this period completely broke out. It is said that there was a fight in the Orlando locker room after the game. β
"Smack!" Lin Sen turned off the TV, he didn't expect things to get so bad at all.
I didn't expect Howard's state and attitude to change so obviously after this incident, if Howard was content to accept the role assigned to him by the team before the incident, then he changed his mind after the incident.
In the game, he is more involved in direct offense than before, and often plays alone, and even in the blocking and dismantling coordination, he is in a state of inaction.
Even last season's Finals Dwight. Howard was blown up by the Spurs on both ends of the floor, and Linson didn't feel as difficult as he did now.
Because at that time, although Howard was blown up, his hidden effect relieved a lot of pressure on Magic and Linsen.
But now, Howard looks like he's stellar in numbers, averaging 24 points, grabbing 14 rebounds and three blocks in nine games over the past 20 days.
But his standout numbers are his nearly 18 attempts per game and his poor free-throw shooting percentage, which has dropped to 55 percent. In addition to this, the more immediate effect is the plummeting of the Magic's offensive efficiency.
Not only has Linson's offensive efficiency been affected, but Darko has suffered. Milicic, Artest, and Billups were all affected. The number of the four has dropped significantly during this time.
In addition to Howard's anomaly, Howard's increased shot count is a big reason for their decline.
Howard's state changed, Linsen lacked a strong helper, and the opponent knew to block the line as much as possible when defending Linsen, not letting Linsen run up to catch the ball, and forcing Linsen to go inside.
Under such circumstances, Lin Sen's state fluctuated greatly during this period, and his scoring efficiency also decreased significantly.
Howard and the Magic as a whole seem a little out of tune, and even more outrageous is Dwight. Howard announced and David. Falck broke up, and the exposure of this news made Magic's direct competitors extremely happy.
and David. Falke's breakup undoubtedly represents a break with Lin Sen.
Since Lin Sen joined the Magic last season, the direct cooperation between Lin Sen and Howard, especially the air connection, has become a scenery during the Magic game.
But in the past 20 days, the number of cooperation between the two has been declining, and the number of Lin Sen's mistakes has increased sharply.
Linson, who averaged 2.1 turnovers per game this season, nearly doubled his average of 4.2 turnovers per game in nine games in these 20 days.
And the main reason is that there is a problem with the coordination between Linson and Howard, and many times Linsen's pass to Howard turns into a mistake rather than a top ten goal.
These scenes undoubtedly try to prove that the Magic are in the midst of infighting, and last night's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Magic started with a 13-point lead, but were tied by the 76ers' slashing tactics within four minutes, and Howard missed two consecutive turnovers in the final minute to lead the 76ers to the lead.
When Lin Sen completed the key shot of the overtake and only left 1.3 seconds, Lin Sen deliberately pulled Howard to explain the attention to the inside, but it still allowed Iguodala to easily find an open opportunity, which made Lin Sen, who had endured for 20 days, finally break out.
There did be a spat in the Magic locker room after the game, but it wasn't Linson and Howard but Artest and Howard.
Dennis who is about to join the team's coaching staff. Rodman almost beat Howard, which illustrates the Magic's bad situation.
Linson approached Howard again after the game. Howard dealt with him perfunctorily.
The media of these contenders even opened up a column on magic infighting. Gathering any bit of information will make it into a formal report. The Orlando Magic became a league joke during this time.
"Monster Kills Orlando" - This is the title of "Yahoo Sports", "Yahoo Sports" compared Howard before and after the accident, from the Magic scoring defense to the efficiency of each round and the efficiency of each person, and finally concluded that the number of times during this period jΓΉ excellent Howard was the culprit of the Magic's loss.
"I feel we need to do something." Stan. Van Gundy found Otis. Smith.
"Stan, I know what you're trying to say, what does Wood think about this?" Otis. Smith asked.
Howard's recent changes have hurt the Magic so much that if they don't do something effective, the team's entire season of hard work could be ruined.
"I put Dwight on suspension, and despite the madness in court, I couldn't find a better way to do it. We can make it clear that Dwight is injured and needs to be recuperated, and I'll put him in the squad when he knows what to do. "Stan. Van Gundy gritted his teeth and said that losing Howard's influence on the team was unquestionable.
But he really couldn't find a good way to do it now, especially with Howard almost isolated by the team.
And Howard seemed very immature during this time, completely rejecting Linson's move to pull him back into the team.
This kind of Howard made him very incomprehensible, and his impression of Howard's big personality was not like this.
How did he know that Howard thought that he couldn't handle this matter well and almost caused a bigger storm because Lin Sen had a good way to deal with it, but he didn't help.
In his opinion, he treated Lin Sen wholeheartedly, so Lin Sen should treat him wholeheartedly, even if he was very wrong this time, he also thought that Lin Sen should be on his side to help him.
"Stan, should we get a psychiatrist for help, like Dr. Keane who helped Natalie last time. Maybe he can give Dwight help. "Otis. Smith said.
Stan. Van Gundy nodded: "Hopefully it will work, and Otis you need to bring up the Polish big guy in the NBDL now." We're probably going to need him, he's playing well in the Development League. β
"Gortat? That big Polish guy? β
Otis. Smith asked, he doesn't pay much attention to the NBDL, but he knows that the selected Gortat has played a dominant game in the NBDL.
"Yes, it's him, he's looking good, I think we can cultivate it, if that Mark. Gasol is better here, but although both of them are less physically than Dwight, they are far more offensive than Dwight. β
Got Otis. Smith's accurate reply was followed by Stan. Van Gundy returned to the office.
On the way to the office, he hears the sound of the ball hitting the ground. Van Gundy was curious to see who had come to the arena at this time.
When he walked to the training ground, it was Lin Sen and Ron. Artest and Eddie. Griffin.
"Wood, come on a little more, you actually did a good job in the low singles that Sam gave you, come again!" Artest said next to Lin Sen.
At the moment, he was standing outside the three-second zone, and Lin Sen was leaning on Artest with his back.
After Lin Sen came to the Magic from Kassel, he asked Kassel for advice on low-post back-to-back attack, which is Linsen's biggest shortcoming at present.
But in the previous games, Lin Sen rarely needed to play like this, but during this time, all the opponents seized the Magic's infighting and forced Lin Sen madly in the high position.
The reason why they dare to do this is that Lin Sen's low offensive ability is flawed, as long as Lin Sen stops in the low post, he can only choose to pass.
Linson has never been so desperate to make up for this shortcoming, and the Magic will need to play the Chicago Bulls at home until April 1.
In order to improve this technique, Lin Sen specially recruited Artest to accompany him.
And Eddie. Griffin came over to practice on his own, and he and Artest also took turns defending Linson in the low post. (To be continued......)
PS: The plot about Howard is not all made up, especially the part of Howard's private life, the plot appears for the purpose of being useful, not deliberately to abuse the magic so that the magic cannot win the championship
