Chapter 407: Easy
"It's so easy, Wood hit a three-point shot, where is the big talk before the game in New York, they can't beat Orlando without Wood, not to mention that Orlando ushered in a full resurrection of Wood, I really want to ask Isaiah. Thomas his cheeks are not hot to the touch. "Charles. Barkley smiled exaggeratedly, his face full of flesh swaying with his exaggerated smile.
"It was a complete personal performance, Wood hit three consecutive shots at the beginning of the second half to help Orlando put a six-point deficit, and the Knicks' defense was torn apart by Wood alone." Kenny. Smith smiled and said, "By the way, I remember that Wood is also a New Yorker, of course he is a Hong Kong citizen now, and I heard that Wood grew up in Rock Park, and his nickname in Wood is not a small part of Rock Park. ”
"Yes, you're right, the nickname Wood is also a slap in the face at Rock Park, just look at Wood's breakthrough, of course, this season Wood has a lot less fancy dribbling and breakthroughs than last season, which is a bit regrettable from the point of view of ornamentation, but from the perspective of a senior, it is wise for Wood to reduce fancy moves." Barkley said.
Marbury, who returned to the offensive end, did not come on his own this time, but again relied on Zach . Randolph's cover shook off Linson.
When the Magic defenders came up, Marbury passed the ball to Eddie under the basket. Curry.
The first half of the table xiàn eye-catching Eddie. After Curry received the ball, a shake and then a forced inward cut and then threw the ball out with his right hand, Howard's defense was not out of position at all but could not interfere with Eddie. Curry's ball.
"Eddie's form today is completely worthy of the title of little shark." Kenny. Smith looked at Eddie running towards the backfield. Curry said.
Eddie. Curry's goal also helped the Knicks ease the situation that began to be passive in the second half.
"It's Orlando's turn again, Wood has hit three shots in a row, and I'm curious how New York will deal with Wood this time. A double bag clip? "Kenny. Smith said as he looked at Linson, who was advancing forward with the ball.
Stephen. Marbury stood on the three-point line and waited for Linson's arrival. This time, he couldn't let Linsen score again no matter what. Not far from the other side stood Jamal. Crawford will be ready to step up.
Lin Sen looked at Stephen who was eyeing him fiercely. Marbury didn't pay much attention to it, and after crossing the halfway line, Linson made a gesture.
This gesture represents the tactics to be played by the Magic this time, and the whole team of the Magic is running.
Right here at Stephen. When Marbury was ready to press ahead rather than wait, Linson passed the ball in his hand.
Kenny. Smith shouted, "Wood actually chose to pass. ”
After a mistake between Linson and Billups, the ball was back in Linson's hands, and Marbury was no longer in front of Linsen, and it became Jamal who was responsible for defending Linsen. Crawford.
Billups, who simply transitioned the ball, ran to the opposite place and switched to Stephen Crawford. Marbury had to chase Billups.
Lin Sen, who re-received the ball, did not attack immediately, but controlled the ball at the top of the arc. Artest, who was running towards Linson, was slow, but he swerved abruptly. Before Richardson could react, he ran straight to the inside.
Dwight on the inside. Howard nudged Eddie. Curry ran to the high post, and Billups just took advantage of Howard's cover to shake off Stephen directly. Marbury's marking.
Artest on the other side also used Milicic's cover to shake off Quentin. Richardson, the inside line suddenly became a vacuum, Eddie. Curry and Zach. Randolph didn't dare to let the inside line be so empty, and immediately shrank to the inside line.
But how can their pace compare to the outside, and by the time they shrank back to the inside, Billups and Artest had already crossed and ran to the bottom corner on either side.
Lin Sen, who was dribbling the ball at the top of the arc, flipped his right wrist without warning, and directly flew out with a force.
Crawford subconsciously reached out when the ball was out of his possession. Go straight to the bottom right corner.
"Bottom right corner, Chauncey!" Kenny. Smith saw the situation on the court clearly. At the moment, the New York Knicks' defense on the right side is completely in a vacuum.
"It was a brilliant tactical run and continuous cover to tear apart the New York defence with ease, and it was a great opportunity for Chauncey to pick up the ball and turn around, and he was in the open position!" Charles. Barkley shouted as he looked at Billups, who was receiving the ball with both hands.
Linson's pass was comfortable this time, and the entire right side was completely in a defensive vacuum at the moment, which was like an open shooting practice for Billups.
Looking at the basket in the distance, Billups jumped out with ease, and the ball arced through the air and fell to the basket.
Swish!
The ball goes steadily into the basket.
"It's beautiful!" Billups smiled and held out his hand, and Linson and Billups high-fived in celebration.
The three-pointer helped the Magic extend their lead to seven points. Thomas gestured for his team to change the way the offense was attacked.
Marbury dribbled the ball to the front court and handed the ball to Eddie on the inside. Curry in his hands, but Curry quickly passed the ball out.
Jamal. Crawford received Curry's ball, and it was Billups who was responsible for defending him.
After receiving the ball, the Knicks played a match, and Billups, who defended him, had to switch defenses with Linson.
"Oh, Wood appeared in front of Jamal, Jamal hasn't opened up tonight, what will happen this time?" Kenny. Smith said, looking at the field.
Face Jamal. Crawford made four tentative steps in a row, and Linson didn't react.
It's useless to look at the tentative step, Jamal. Crawford started dribbling.
However, Linson's defense did a good job and did not give Jamal a chance. Crawford's good attacking chances.
Just inside the line of Eddie. Curry regained his position and wanted to take the position to Jamal. When Crawford asked for the ball, Jamal was the same. Once again, Crawford made a change of course.
Syllable!
Jamal. Crawford slapped the ball with his left hand, and Linson, who was in charge of defending Crawford, couldn't help but not block him directly, but made a retreat in the opposite direction. So Linson came to Jamal. Behind Crawford.
Right here in Jamal. Crawford watched as he was about to shake off Linson. Let Lin Sen to the side quickly circle to Jamal. Behind Crawford.
"Wood. Wood-style steals! Barkley shouted.
On the field, Lin Sen struck Jamal with a lightning bolt of his left hand. The ball in Crawford's hand.
Syllable!
A familiar voice rang out when Jamal. When Crawford reacted, the ball he had been in control of had already broken away from his control.
"Oh, Wood's behind-the-scenes steal!" Barkley shouted.
The fans in the center of the water house cheered loudly, and Lin Sen, who broke the ball, rode directly into the dust!
Syllable!
The basket screamed, and Lin Sen let go of the basket and jumped down.
"Wood completely blew up the New York team, with a nine-point deficit of just three minutes. That's where Wood is right now, and of course there's the bad New York side of that, and they're completely a supporting part of Wood's brilliant play. "Kenny. Smith said as he looked at Linson, who was cheering from the crowd.
The game continued, and the Knicks, who were in control of the situation in the first half, were completely at a disadvantage.
Isaiah. Thomas called two timeouts in a row in the third quarter, but neither could get the Knicks back to regain their first-half morale.
In the third quarter, the Magic beat the Knicks 38-17, and the 21-point win in the single quarter made the Magic, who was still one point behind at the end of the first half, overtake the Knicks by 20 points.
Lin Sen is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to the Magic's one-quarter victory, Lin Sen, who only played in the second half, played ten minutes, scored 15 points on 6-of-6 shooting and also handed out 4 assists, and also got 3 rebounds and 3 steals by the way.
The all-round count of 15 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds and 3 steals in 10 minutes was enough to silence those who expected Lin Sen to continue to slump.
If the Knicks can't chase the difference to within 15 before the last five minutes in the fourth quarter, then the game is basically over, and of course, no one believes that the Knicks can suddenly momentum in the fourth quarter.
At the start of the fourth quarter, the game began with the first half of the game outstanding Nate. Robinson and Cousin Xiàn are not good at Jamal. Crawford hit back-to-back shots. All at once, he chased the 20 points behind to only 12 points.
Stan. Van Gundy immediately called a timeout for personnel adjustments to stabilize the situation, but the Magic couldn't regain the margin to a huge 20-point advantage. This makes Isaiah. Thomas's heart was once again filled with hope.
With seven minutes left in the fourth quarter, Stan Brown. Van Gundy made another personnel change.
Lin Sen, who had been resting since the last two minutes of the third quarter, returned to the court, and the fans at the center of the water house applauded thunderously.
"Wood is back on the court and nothing has changed on the Knicks' side, is it Jamal defending Wood? It looks like a joke. Barkley said with a smile.
"Wood chose to play Jamal with his back to him, and look at Jamal, he looks like he's working very hard defending!" Kenny. Smith said, looking at the field.
Boom!
Jamal. Crawford didn't expect Lin Sen's strength to be so great, and Crawford stepped back a little bit suddenly.
And Linson didn't give Crawford a respite, and the second impact hit immediately.
Crawford, whose center of gravity had not yet regained stability, took another half step back under Linson's re-impact, and now Magic fans have become accustomed to Linson's use of back-to-back singles to force opponents in the game, although they don't use much, but they are not surprised.
Syllable!
Lin Sen slapped the ball with his right hand, hit the ground to his left hand, followed the axis of his right foot, and pulled the ball with his left hand.
After pulling the ball, Lin Sen quickly pulled his left foot back.
Crawford was shocked, and Crawford, who had not yet stabilized his body's center of gravity, pounced directly.
By this time, Linson had already jumped, and when Crawford came to him, the ball had already left his palm and flew out.
Swish!
"Poor Jamal, Wood became Wood's backdrop as soon as he got on the court, and Wood was telling him who was the three-point king." Barkley said with a smile.
"Wood is playing too easily, those who are worried about Wood can not worry, his slump is only temporary!" Kenny. Smith continued. (To be continued......)
