Chapter 179
Chapter 179
Li Wan's current skills are capable of playing 1v1 with Deron Williams.
Even if it is a large number of 1v1.
With the super fast first step, Li Wan can mobilize the center of gravity of Deron Williams, so as to find opportunities for breakthrough.
only……
That's too tiring.
Whether it's the Jazz's defensive ability or Deron Williams' ability to push through, Li Wan doesn't want to score so hard.
More importantly, the Magic's system is here.
This is the championship system that can win the O'Brien Cup...
From Li Wan's point of view, he won the championship MVP last season, and won the best of the week twice and the best of the month this season, so he must be responsible to the rest of the team.
Make sure everyone has meat to eat.
Only in this way can we better mobilize everyone's enthusiasm.
If it is really "one person holding the ball and four people watching on their hips", such a team is destined to not have a good team atmosphere.
It's just that the current situation is...
He is paying attention to this, but some people are deliberately ignoring it.
Howard did not stop his fuss in the following time, and the number of times he asked for the ball increased instead of decreasing. Li Wan's ignorance resulted in his more intense resistance.
And a more frizzy mentality...
In the first half, he got two fouls for grabbing offensive rebounds. He was already sitting off the court at 7 minutes and 16 seconds into the second quarter.
This obviously affected the mood of others.
You played well, what happened suddenly?
At the end of the first half, the Magic trailed by 45 points 49 to 4 at home to the Jazz.
The first time he returned to the locker room, Stan Van Gundy talked to Howard specifically: "Man, give me a reason!"
Howard responded with silence.
It is naturally impossible for him to tell Stan Van Gundy: I want to be the boss, I want the ball to prove my presence, and the team should play around me.Instead of attacking from the number one position...
At the same time, he once again silently said in his heart: Li Wan, this is not aimed at you, but this is indeed the best way to prove myself!
Stan Van Gundy didn't speak, and stared straight at Howard through his small eyes through the lens.
If it was normal, Howard would be very happy if a man looked at him like that.
Man is attractive!
but now……
The increasingly gloomy atmosphere finally made Howard a little breathless. He took a breath, and his chest rose and fell more obviously because of the inhalation.
He spit out this breath: "I think I have a matchup advantage at the basket...Give me the ball, and I can lead the team to win!"
Li Wan has played for so long, isn't he still 4 points behind?
This shows what?
This shows that in this team, I am the cornerstone!
Of course, he didn't dare to say that.
Otherwise, if it reaches Li Wan's ears, it will hurt the harmony between the two of them.
Stan Van Gundy narrowed his eyes at this moment, and his eyes, which were already small, narrowed even more at this moment.Having experienced the chaos in the locker room, he realized something and looked at Howard meaningfully.
Howard averted his eyes unnaturally, hurriedly ended the conversation, and returned to the locker room.
He glanced at Li Wan who was flicking his phone with his head down, and said nothing. He just sat down and turned his chair to the side.
Stan Van Gundy came in a little late, pretended nothing had happened, and made a second-half change that, as Howard wanted, would revolve around Howard.
Hearing this news, "Warcraft" suddenly became full of fighting spirit.
Lewis and Ray Allen grabbed the ball; Artest also had a quarrel with O'Neal and almost fell directly;
They know that the team's system cannot suddenly change.
Especially with the Magic getting off to such a strong start to the new season.
and……
The Magic have never had a tactic for Howard to play singles with the ball under the basket.
However, it was only the two of them who were vigilant, and the attitude of the others was basically obeying the arrangement.
From their point of view, Howard just went out with Stan Van Gundy, probably complaining about his poor state tonight. In order to appease him, Van Gundy decided to let him hold the ball more and save face as he wished.
As for Howard holding the ball at the basket...
If it was the beginning of the season, they would be very surprised, but now, Howard is playing singles with the ball in the team every day during training, um... let's treat it as a singles under the basket!
So they were not surprised.
Li Wan didn't respond either. According to Stan Van Gundy's request for the ball, in the second half of the game, he passed the ball to Howard and gave him enough opportunities to handle the ball.
Just Howard's two brushes...
It is true that Kwame can be bullied in the training match, but Okur on the opposite side is not playing the game with the attitude of the training match.
Even because the Magic had never arranged for Howard to play singles in the previous game, watching Howard stiffly make fake moves with a ball in front of him, he suddenly felt that the opponent was insulting him.
On the first attack in the third quarter, Okur, who averaged only 1.1 blocks per game, gave Howard a slap in the face.
The ball is bouncing high!
With a mocking tone, he said, "Did you learn the lion dance from the Huaxia people in the summer?"
He knows that there is a Spring Festival in China, and there is a traditional custom called "lion dance" in some places. He has seen it and it is quite interesting.
Howard's actions just now, in his eyes, are like "lion dance".
Li Wan curled his lips beside him.
He heard Okur's words.
I really want to say: Hurry up and down, saying that he is dancing to the gods is flattering.
Li Wan was not angry because Okur mocked Howard.
In other words, before tonight, he would definitely want to avenge the "Warcraft".
But now...
Howard made it clear that like him at the same time, he wanted the ball and wanted to be the boss of the team. When he messed around there, Li Wan still wanted to stand up for him...
Isn't that pure Stockholm Syndrome?
Li Wan is willing to cooperate with passing the ball, it is also very simple...
Let Howard see the truth!
He didn't take the fate of holding the ball...
This game is over quickly.
Once an experienced head coach like Jerry Sloan perceives an opportunity that can be seized, it will naturally be a precise strike.
Taking advantage of Howard's eagerness to play singles at the basket, he continued to target on the defensive end.
On the Magic side, because Howard has been playing singles with the ball and others can only stand by and watch, the scoring state is obviously not as good as in the first half.
In the end, the Jazz defended their home court with a 109-94 15-point victory.
Li Wan scored 12 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the first half. According to this efficiency, this game would have been his third "triple double" this season. Unfortunately, in the second half, the Magic kept dropping positions and let Howard hold the ball.
Not to mention less personal possession of the ball, even the number of offensive rounds has decreased.
After the game, "only" scored 21 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.
But the efficiency value is very high.
His shooting percentage in this game was as high as 60%!
Sent 7 assists without even making a mistake.
In addition, his defensive efficiency in the second half was also very high. Deron Williams, who made 10 of 6 shots in the first half, only made 8 of 3 shots in the second half. He faced Li Wan's one-on-ones three times, and he ended all of them.
The 3 goals in the second half were all matched with Boozer's pick-and-roll.
As we all know, the effect of preventing pick-and-rolls is often not guaranteed by one person.
In short, tonight's Li Wan's efficiency on both ends of the offense and defense is nothing to say.
If the full score is 101 points, then he can get [-] points!
The extra point is full of love from Stan Van Gundy...
Compared with him, in the eyes of Stan Van Gundy, Howard may not even have 50 points tonight. If you only watch the second half, then Howard even has to give 1 point back to "Coach Anxi".
He made 19 of 7 shots from the field.
Among them, he made 6 of 4 shots in the first half and 13 of 3 shots in the second half!
This efficiency, not to mention the inside players, even if the outside players play such an efficiency, it is appalling.
Howard probably also knew that his performance tonight was too hip. When he took the passenger plane back to Orlando, he didn't dare to look up.
Stan Van Gundy breathed a sigh of relief.
From what he knew of Howard, there was frustration and guilt.
The emergence of such emotions shows that Howard's dazed head has "cooled off"...
It should be back to normal next time.
I have to say that Stan Van Gundy knows Howard quite well.
"Warcraft" did regain his composure after this game.
He felt a little too impatient...
but……
"13 of 3 shots in the second half, Howard with the ball in his hand is disappointing, he is more suitable for playing off the ball! "
"Is there still a long way to go before the top star?Shaq - O'Neal: He will never be a real Superman, this game is proof! "
"Li Wan handed over the ball, the Magic lost 15 points to Salt Lake City! "
"Please do what you are supposed to do, Dwight Howard!" "
Early the next morning, accusations, doubts, and ridicules swept across Orlando like raindrops, hitting Howard in the face.
Facing the monstrous negative public opinion, the "Warcraft" who felt that he shouldn't be hot-headed on the plane last night suddenly turned up again.
He is very clear that if faced with these voices of doubt, he cannot give an answer.
After that, he will be characterized as the "second leader of the team" and will always be a head shorter than Li Wan!
This is not what he wants to see.
It was an accident that I didn't play well in the last game. If you give me a chance next time, I will definitely be able to play well!
Ever since, in the next few games, Howard continued his singles show under the basket, vowing to prove that he has the ability to become the core of the ball.
On December 12th, the Magic played the Heat at home, and Li Wan met with his college alumni Cook.
Watching Li Wan confront Wade, Cook's eyes were full of bitterness.
In fact, he has long been used to Li Wan's awesomeness.
But the problem is that this season, it's not just Li Wan who is awesome.
Although not as dazzling as Li Wan...
Greg Oden, so far this season, has averaged 20.4 points, 10.8 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game;
Mike Conley averaged 15.4 points, 6.3 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game;
He alone, averaging 5 points per game, is falling out of Eric Spoelstra's usual rotation.
Everyone entered the NBA in the same year, now one drives a Lexus, another drives a Ferrari, the other drives a Porsche, and he alone drives a small electric donkey...
It is equivalent to saying that the bitterness has increased by 3 times, and on top of that, the kind of loneliness that friends have gone away...
Cook: I only cry secretly at night...
In this game, Howard's singles under the basket played well.
He played 10 singles with the ball under the basket and scored 5 goals.
Facing insiders like Haslem, "Warcraft" is still stable.
Anyway, there is also the title of "the league's number one center". If it is really difficult for anyone to play with the ball under the basket, then it is impossible to have the ability to attract double-teams under the basket.
Orlando's "OK" team worked hard, although it was not the previous system, and it was a bit of a taste of fighting each other, but they still defeated the Heat from afar by 101 to 94.
Wade scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, and walked away lonely with his cheeks puffed up.
Li Wan hugged Cook after the game. He knew the latter's situation very well, so he reminded him to practice three-pointers and defense.
As long as you practice these two things well, you will definitely have no problem in this league.
Cook nodded, and he also discovered that if he wants to gain a foothold in the league, he must make his strengths longer.
This game against the Heat improved Howard's reputation in the media and public opinion, and he was determined to continue to hold the ball to prove himself...
As a result, on December 12, in the game against the Rockets, "Warcraft" lost his memory again.
Yao Ming got 8 blocks this night.
Tied his career record for blocks in a single game.
Of these 8 blocks, 5 were given to Howard.
Sure enough, Dayao really likes playing Warcraft!
In the end, the Rockets left with a game, leaving Warcraft, who only scored 11 points and 6 rebounds, in a daze.
It's just that there is no smile on Dayao's face.
The white pig has been thinking about sending McGrady out, but in the end...
Maddie is hurt!
Originally, he had already fooled New York President Donnie Walsh. With McGrady's injury, the deal was lost.
Now the entire team is supported by Yao Ming, and the average playing time is as high as 37.5 minutes per game... This is a very scary playing number in the regular season.
Even Howard's playing time is about 3 minutes less than him.
With Dayao's physical condition, I am afraid that he will become "Houston Zhuge Liang"!
I don't know how long I can last...
Li Wan couldn't give any advice.
Now all the choices are chosen by Dayao himself, I guess he knows it well, Li Wan can't control Dayao's brain to do something...
Howard's public opinion has deteriorated again.
On December 12, the Magic continued to sit at home to face the Sacramento Kings.
Li Wan met Evans, the hottest new-generation defender in 09.
In just over a month, Evans has already been labeled "No. [-] LeBron".
In terms of the result of the confrontation, it can only be "No. [-] LeBron".
His physical fitness has a great advantage in the first position, but in the third position, it is not very obvious.It can even be said that there is no advantage at all.
It's no wonder that after switching to position 3, there is no more text...
It is worth mentioning that the media in Sacramento referred to Tyreek Evans as "the next Lee Wan" and "American Lee Wan"...
The reason is what Paul Westphal, the current head coach of the Kings, said when evaluating Evans: "I think he can become the next Li Wan. He is tall, but has the dribbling skills of a guard and the ability to break through and score the ball. He is suitable for the No. [-] position. If he continues to grow in this position, he will become one of the representatives of the No. [-] position in the league..."
This time "American Li Wan" met Li Wan, but Evans said modestly before the game: "Li Wan is already an MVP-level player in the finals. I still have a lot to learn. I can put it together with him. It is my honor to compare!"
With these words, Li Wan's impression of him immediately rose sharply.
Don't look at this guy who looks rough and arrogant, but has a very humble personality...
That's right, if it wasn't for his submissive personality, it would be impossible for him to play the second position if he was allowed to play the second position, and for him to play the third position if he was allowed to play the third position.
Paul is not a handsome man!
Compared to him, the "skinny monkey" in Milwaukee is too annoying, and he has no ability to keep his mouth stinky!
For such a junior with a B number in his heart, Li Wan's evaluation is: The young man is very good, you will become the next "Li Wan"!
This evaluation confused the outside world. ——This seems to be the first time Li Wan has recognized others in front of the media, right?So you can praise people?
Evans was also flattered.
Li Wan scored 25 points on him, and he was even more convinced: "There are so many things about Li Wan that I can learn from!"
It seems that he has become a "little fan" of Li Wan!
Howard is also in the process of tonight with Carl Landry and Hawes, the 07th overall pick in the first round of 10. He regained his glory, scored 22 points and 14 rebounds, and shot 50% from the field...
This has been the past 4 games, and Howard has the highest shooting percentage.
In the past, he easily hit 70% of his shots, but now it is difficult to average 50% of his shots per game!
But he still doesn't have any awareness, and regards this as a stepping stone for him to become the boss.He believes that there will always be a day when the clouds will be cleared.
He still had patience. Stan Van Gundy was impatient. Before the training started the next day, he found Li Wan, hoping that he could talk to Hua De once.
Although Li Wan didn't want to coax the children to play anymore, Stan Van Gundy was really nice to him...
Most importantly, he had a sentence that moved Li Wan:
I really don't want to see this team break up like this!
So, Li Wan agreed.
At the end of the training that afternoon, I asked Howard to chat.
"Actually, you have better options, man, you should notice that the current pace of the league is getting faster and faster..."
Li Wan analyzed some current changes in the league for Howard, and chatted with him about the future development trend of insiders.
In fact, Li Wan has a plan that can help Howard to a certain extent, become a player of the team's quasi-boss level, which is commonly known as "old 1.5"...
As for the boss...
Forget it!
Like Kevin Durant, he has an Achilles' heel.
The problem with Kevin Durant is that he needs others to help him share a lot of things on the court. Only let him focus on offense, and he can perform at an MVP level. Once he is distracted to do other things , then...
Howard's problem is that his lower limbs are weak, and his skills at the basket are really not strong enough.
But with the advent of the "small ball era", he can take another path to make himself more present on the offensive end!
It's just that there is a premise that Howard still trusts Li Wan as he did last season.
That's why he analyzed the current changes in the rhythm of NBA games with Howard.
But judging from the results, Howard was obviously wary of him, and he didn't believe his analysis.
At the same time, Li Wan was completely convinced that the "OK" combination in Orlando would soon become another regret in the hearts of Orlando people.
It's about to be!
Fortunately, he already knew about Howard's changes, so there was nothing unacceptable.
In fact, even if he doesn't know when and which players have changed in the future, he will not feel disappointed or sad at this moment.
Everyone has their own path.
Howard felt that the path he was taking was the right one, so what Li Wan wanted to take was also the one he thought was the right one.
Throughout December, Li Wan didn't make any moves. When Howard asked for the ball, he passed it without hesitation.
Since he thinks he can be the core of the team's offense, let him be...
"Warcraft" continues to have good and bad performances.
Public opinion is jumping repeatedly, and December has passed.
In the past month, the Magic have won 15 of 7 games, not even a 50% winning percentage.
The ranking also slipped from first in the Eastern Conference to fourth in the Eastern Conference. ——This is also thanks to the strength of the Magic in November.Otherwise, I'm afraid he would be fifth and sixth in the Eastern Conference right now.
To be honest, this is what Li Wan did not expect.
He remembers that in 04 when the Lakers were in the "f4" group, the atmosphere in the team was also very bad, and they basically fought on their own, but they have always been ranked second in the West.
As the defending champion of last season, the Magic's strength was not affected by Turkoglu's departure. On the contrary, with the arrival of Artest, the team's team defense became even more impressive.
Li Wan originally thought that even if Howard was messing around there, it would be a mess.
The record can still be maintained at a relatively good ratio.
Unexpectedly, it fell directly below 50%!
Think about it, the Magic's system is "one star, four shots". Howard needs to have the ability to transfer like Olajuwon. Even with the ball in his hand, he can continue to activate these shooters.
Now he has "cut off" his own "hand", that is, Li Wan...
What can you expect these shooters to do?
However, once the shooter is not restrained, Howard's ball-handling skills, which are not satisfied with half a bottle of water, are naturally even more difficult to display...
Under the vicious cycle, the Magic can only bully those weak teams that are not strong enough and "wish to die" and are working hard towards the No. 2010 pick in [-].
To be honest, if it weren't for enough teams in December...
Not to mention 7 wins and 8 losses, I'm afraid 5 wins and 10 losses are barely...
With such a record, Li Wan's performance on the field has aroused heated discussions!
After handing over the ball, Li Wan focused more on his offensive and defensive performance.Using a typical forward style of play, he averaged 12 points, 22.4 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game throughout December.
Watching the data drop across the board.
But everyone knows that this is a natural change caused by the fact that his possession of the ball has changed from 25% to 20%.
What's more, Li Wan's efficiency is too exaggerated...
The average field goal percentage is as high as 55%, the average three-point shooting percentage is as high as 42%, and the free throw percentage is as high as 91%!
Forget the "180" club, it's almost the "190" club!
And that's just a change on the offensive end...
Let's talk about the defensive end...
Throughout December, he averaged 12 steals and 2.2 blocks per game, handing over a data sheet that can only be handed over by a top defender.
Not only in terms of statistics, among the players facing him in the first position this year, there are very few players who can play their usual performance this season.
Including Chris Paul, he suffered a big loss in his hands. In the previous game against the Hornets, Chris Paul allowed him to defend only 17 of 5 shots and made 5 turnovers.
Li Wan: Look, look at our individual defense ability!
Chris Paul (picking up the "cannon fist"): If you have the ability to make Raja Bell and Artest stop defending, let's fight one-on-one!
Many media are saying that this year's Li Wan may be in the best defensive team!
compared to his efficiency.
Howard's 12 points, 18.8 rebounds and 13.2 blocks in December looked good, but his shooting percentage was barely maintained at 2.4%, not as high as Li Wan's outside player, and he averaged 50 turnovers per game...
The gap is not extreme to extreme, but it is almost the same.
This naturally caused some controversy.
Not only the controversy from the outside world, but also some dissatisfaction with Howard within the team.
Artest has expressed his dissatisfaction in front of Li Wan several times.It's just that Li Wan persuaded him.
"The Beast" can break out, but not now...
On January 1, the "1-point night" of Jennings known to Li Wan came.
The backcourt combination of Monta Ellis and Curry made him suddenly fall apart.
Jennings thus became the youngest "Mr. 55 points".
At the same time, the Magic also ended their home game against the Timberwolves.
This was supposed to be a game without any suspense.
Although the Magic fell to the fourth place in the Eastern Conference, the camel is bigger than the horse, and the Timberwolves are currently the last in the league.
This is not!
Although Howard made 7 of 2 shots.
But the Magic still led the Timberwolves by 10 points at halftime.
Howard, who had a little feeling in the second half, even scored consecutively over the head of Milicic, who came off the bench. ——Should I say it or not, Howard's singles ability with the ball has improved in a month.
That's right, if he didn't make progress, he would have given up a long time ago!
In the next attack, a dunk was completed on Milicic's head.
"wow!"
Excited Howard made an indecent gesture towards Milicic, made a "V" shape with two fingers, and then licked it...
With Milicic's "arrogant" character, he couldn't bear it, and shouted at Howard in broken English: "Li Wan is the boss of the Magic team, you are nothing!"
Howard, who was quite happy at first, froze on the spot.
Then his expression was obviously gloomy...
The two met again in the fourth quarter. Howard, who still remembered Milicic's mocking words, made a big move. Milicic, who later transformed into boxing, did not back down.
Also hit back with big moves.
At first, the two of them would check to see if they had the ball in their hands, and later, if there was a ball, they also pushed together.
Until the moment the buzzer sounded, the other players walked towards the bench, but the two of them turned into a chattering quarrel, and finally as Milicic said, "You can never be the boss of the Magic, you take The ball is useless," Howard finally couldn't help but wrestled with him.
The media's dissatisfaction already made him feel depressed. After holding back for so long, Milicic has repeatedly provoked his bottom line and frantically tested his "fire line".
What else is there to say!
Let you see how powerful "Huojiaquan" is!
"Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
It wasn't until the two of them wrestled with each other that they fell to the ground, and then other people ran over and separated the two of them.
There was nothing wrong with the two of them, except that their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and they didn't even bleed...
But the league's suspension is definitely inevitable.
On January 1, the league announced the results of the first phase of the 2-year All-Star starter voting.
In addition, the East and West "Player of the Month" and "Rookie of the Month" were announced in December.
But Orlando Multimedia is more concerned that Howard will be suspended for a few games...
The ticket was not announced until the afternoon.
霍华德收到了一张7.5万刀的罚单，另外还有3场禁赛。——7.5万的罚单包括因打架而产生的5万刀罚单，以及霍华德那个舔beaver的不雅动作而产生的2.5万刀的罚单。
When Li Wan knew about this, he said in his heart: The opportunity has come!
What he is waiting for is such a time when he can control the ball as he pleases...
Now finally have such an opportunity!
On January 1, the Magic played against the Atlanta Hawks at home.
This is their second encounter this season...
In December, they had just played once, and the Magic lost that time.
this time……
On the first goal, Li Wan showed a strong desire to attack that was different from usual.
Facing Mike Bibby, the first step of the explosion, he simply passed the latter neatly, and then made a mid-range shot, steadily sending the ball into the basket.
2-0!
The Eagles counterattacked quickly, and the flank "Single Joe" faced Artest with the ball.
The 29-year-old Joe Johnson is in the best state of his career. Although the strength of "The Beast" is strong, his explosive power and lateral movement are indeed not as good as when he was young.
Using a sharp turn, Joe Johnson easily got the opportunity to hit the inside line, and Raja Bell came over from the side to grab one. The "Eagle King" saw the opportunity and gave the ball to Josh Smith.
The "Slam Dunk King" is now one step away from the three-point line.
When the ball was given to him, he jumped up immediately and shot a long-range mid-range jumper.
This is Josh Smith's favorite way to score... I just don't use it if I have physical fitness, I just play, hey!
At the same time, I was delighted:
My brother understands me!
If he looked at Joe Johnson at this moment, he could definitely see the speechlessness in his eyes.
I'll give you this ball and you're going inside!
"Dangdang!"
Josh Smith has an iron.
The fourth position of the Eagles is Marvin Williams, the template of Yi Jianlian in Li Wan's heart, a "Lewis" with not so strong shooting ability.Kwame Brown confronted Horford and got out of position, allowing Li Wan to easily grab the offensive rebound.
As Li Wan fell to the ground, he shouted, "Run!"
All members of the Magic team quickly counterattacked.
Joe Johnson switched defenses with Mike Bibby and blocked Li Wan by himself, but soon he found that he had overestimated himself a bit.Li Wan, who was moving at a high speed, could not be stopped by himself.
Seeing this, Josh Smith helped double-team.
Seeing him coming, "Eagle King" uttered Qiong Yao's voice anxiously: "No!"
Li Wan quickly passed the ball to the open Artest.
Marvin helped Josh Smith to make up the defense, Artest continued to transfer the ball, and Lewis scored a three-pointer from a zero angle!
The smooth transfer of the ball allowed the Magic to counterattack smoothly, and at the same time opened the point difference to 5 points.
For the Eagles, continue to give the ball to Joe Johnson to solve the problem.
The nickname "Singles King" is actually not enough to fully describe Joe Johnson. Although he has strong singles ability, he can also divide the ball very well.
When Mike Bibby didn't come, he was always handling the ball, playing himself as a "combination guard".
Now that the "White Devil" is old, the ball is back in his hands again.
At the same time that Horford ran back to the basket, Joe Johnson immediately gave him the ball.
"Ho!"
Kwame Brown let out a hormonal yell, and flew forward with his whole body.
"beep!"
The referee blows the whistle.
Although this was a defensive foul, there was a burst of encouraging cheers for the Magic.
Li Wan also patted him on the back, telling him not to take this foul to heart.
"Ball Blind Discriminator" has a decent free throw percentage this season: 78.6 percent!
This time he went to the free throw line and made a steady hit in the face of boos, helping the Eagles break the "scoring drought".
And that's one of Horford's all-around abilities...
Whether it's rebounding, blocking shots, making up defense, storming, drawing fouls... or marrying a wife.
You can always trust Horford!
2-5!
However, the Magic's offensive rhythm has not been affected.
The two teams switched offense and defense, and Li Wan went to the frontcourt to find Lewis immediately. In the finals, "Li Liu" who made the Lakers deflated appeared in the Eagles' defense zone.
The person who followed was Horford.
He is more experienced in guarding against pick-and-rolls.
Li Wan took the opportunity to pass the ball to Kwame Brown under the basket.
Brown turned around quickly, and then gently put the ball into the basket.
Turning around to put the basket, Ewing showed an old father's smile.
It's like the Warriors management specially invited Milojevic, the best interior technical coach in Europe, to help Wymans grow up, but in the end he trained Rooney who was watching from the sidelines...
The Magic invited Ewing over to help Howard improve his inside skills. As a result, Kwame Brown has only been here for a year and a half, and his quick turn after the confrontation is already in good shape.
Anyway, it must be enough to deal with defensive players like Marvin Williams who are better at defending wings than inside players.
The ball was spun into the basket by him.
When Kwame Brown can hold the ball steadily, the benefits of small hands appear, two words: soft!
7-2!
The Magic scored another goal.
It only took less than 8 seconds!
With such a smooth offense, the ESPN commentator Hubie Brown, who explained the game, couldn't help saying: "The Magic team we are familiar with is back!"
The season began in December, and Magic games have been filled with a lot of isolations at the basket, with four other guys with their hips akimbo watching from beyond the three-point line.
The entire offensive rhythm can be described as fragmented.
Unexpectedly, Howard was not on the court in this game, which instead allowed the Magic to regain their previous smooth offense.
The expressions of the Orlando people at the scene were somewhat absurd...
Relying on the strong start, the Magic team improved quickly tonight. At the end of the first quarter, they had already led the Hawks by 6 points.
Woodson took advantage of the intermission to comfort the rest of the Eagles: "It's okay, it's okay, keep our state, and it will be fine later!"
I don't know if these words have comforted the guys from the Eagles. Anyway, judging from the process of the game, it's quite poisonous.
It's really getting better later, but it's not that they are getting better, but that the Magic are getting better and better...
In cooperation with Li Wan, Lewis hit consecutive three-pointers. By the end of the first half, he had already thrown five three-pointers.
This is his best result in the past month or so.
上一次他一场比赛投进5个三分球还是在11月14日的时候，那场比赛他全场打完，三分球10投5中！
Ok……
All over the place!
And in this game, he made 5 three-pointers in just halftime...
In the end, he also set a new high in the number of three-pointers made in a single game since the new season!
In this game, he made a total of 8 three-pointers!
The hit rate is a bit Haren's 12 of 8 shots!
Li Wan is holding the ball again, which means that the "Li Liu" pick-and-roll restarts, and Lewis shines in the system that suits him best.
at the same time……
It's a sigh of relief!
In December, the Magic team's record declined, Howard's style of play was questioned, and his "12 million yuan contract" was once again brought out.
With a contract of nearly 2 million yuan, is it embarrassing to make one or two three-pointers every game?
Facing these remarks, he was really speechless.
Now, after this game, he can finally feel proud: It's not that I can't do it, it's the team's style of play that caused me to do it!
If Li Wan comes to hold the ball, let's see if I can break 4 three-pointers this season and it's over~
It's very arrogant!
In addition to him, Artest, Raja Bell and others performed much better on the offensive end than before.
The former scored 18 points and the latter scored 12 points, both with high shooting percentages.
There are reasons why they are really in excellent condition, and there is also Li Wan's go-between to organize the attack.
Li Wan, who regained control of the ball, scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists throughout the game. Various passes after breakthroughs helped his teammates score while also increasing his assists.
In the final game, the Magic won the Eagles by nearly 20 points!
Almost from the end of the first half, the two teams entered garbage time.
With Howard, the Magic lost to the Hawks; without Howard, the Magic beat the Hawks...
The outside world doubts Howard more violently!
But that's where it goes!
The next two games really made Howard feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in his back, like a thorn in his throat...
Because in every game, the Magic established a very large advantage early in the first half, and in the second half, they were able to win the game with a larger score.
In these two games, he won against the Bucks with 18 points in one game. Li Wan gave the extremely glorious "Mr. 55 Points" a hard time. The latter scored 5 points and 1 assist miserably.
The second game beat the Philadelphia 13ers by 76 points!
A wave of refreshing "three consecutive victories"...
There is a saying: winning is not terrible, whoever is not is embarrassed!
Howard has only two words in his heart these two days: play me!
These guys are playing me!
Why can't I play so well with them?
Especially Li Wan's data almost stunned Howard...
Three games, three "triple doubles", when did Li Wan become Li's "big o"?
[-] words are sent.
