Chapter 370: Outside Magic Completely Defeated

Update time:2012-12-01

Dunking requires timing, and situations like Yang Shuai's dunk on Howard require even more timing. If he missed this opportunity, Yang Shuai did not stupidly deliberately look for a collision with Howard, because he understood very well.

Compared with the head-on confrontation with Howard, what is more important is to lead the team to victory and go to another world with arms to read.

After he made the free throw, the Warriors had already widened the point difference to 6 points. What the Warriors need to do now is to continue to widen the point difference.

The offensive right came to the hands of the Magic. Williams dribbled the ball to half court and naturally handed the ball to Howard.

After catching the ball, squeezing in and turning around, facing the double-teams of Chandler and Jackson, Howard still rushed to the basket forcefully. He took off and when he came to the basket, Howard hugged the ball and jumped up with Chandler on his back.

"Beep!" After the whistle, Chandler raised his hand consciously. At this time, he would not give Howard a chance to dunk.

The offense of the two teams became normal again. A long game, with more than a hundred offensive and defensive rounds between the two sides. The dunk would indeed bring absolute visual enjoyment to the fans and boost the team's morale, but the dunk did not.

Not the subject of a competition.

Both the Warriors and Magic have very good outside attack power. The Magic use Howard's advantage in the interior to attract double-teams from opponents, thereby creating opportunities for the outside.

Compared with the Magic, the Warriors are more flexible and have more methods in outside attacks, and the Warriors players are not inferior to the Magic's group of three-point shooters. Both Yang Shuai and Jackson have their own ability to create three-point shooting opportunities.

, Hinrich's open three-pointers have improved greatly in the past two seasons, and on the bench, both Belinelli and Morrow have very good running and three-point abilities.

"Beep!"

As the whistle blew, players from both teams walked to the bench. Both teams had called regular timeouts before. Taking advantage of the dead ball, the scorer's desk called an official timeout. There were still 2 minutes and 46 seconds left before the end of the second quarter.

"Pay attention to their outside lines..."

"Pay attention to their outside attack..."

On the benches of the home and away teams, the coaches of both teams mentioned this issue at the same time. In the past few minutes, the outside offensive firepower of the two teams began to increase at the same time, which has attracted their attention.

After the timeout, at 44:48, the Warriors still had a 4-point advantage, but the ball fell to the Magic. Hinrich's pass just now was forced by Pietrus, and the ball was knocked out of bounds by a Warriors player.

.

After Williams dribbled to the three-point line, Howard pulled a pick-and-roll from the inside, and Williams immediately rushed to the basket.

Chandler moved a step to the side to block Williams, but he did not dare to directly attack the opponent. Although Howard did not have offensive ability near the three-point line, his impact was still a great threat.

After taking two steps forward, Williams passed the ball. The target was Howard, who was moving toward the basket from near the three-point line. At this time, Chandler happened to return to Howard's side.

After catching the ball, he held the ball with both hands and shook it slightly. Howard had already rushed to the basket. Chandler's reaction was a little slower than half a beat, and he could no longer stop Howard, who was directly in front of him and stuck tightly to his opponent's side.

Rasheed Wallace quickly rushed to the basket. Whenever Howard was holding the ball and not attacking, the Warriors would double-team him, let alone now.

Passing the ball, seeing Rasheed Wallace coming in front of him, Howard immediately passed the ball to the Magic's starting power forward, Rashad Lewis.

Lewis has a very good three-point shot, which is a very important reason why the Magic were willing to give him a big contract. Just last year, he participated in the All-Star Three-Point Contest with Yang Shuai, but in the end he failed in the finals.

Eliminated by Yang Shuai.

Although he did not win the three-point contest, participating in the three-point contest itself was a recognition of Lewis's three-point ability.

Rasheed Wallace could no longer get back to Lewis in time. After catching the ball, Lewis easily shot the ball and put it firmly into the basket.

"Attack! Attack!" "Shoot, kill those guys, they know how powerful the Warriors are!" "Three-pointers? Who are the Warriors afraid of? Young is the three-point king!"

Yang Shuai is indeed the three-point king, but he is not the only Warriors player who can shoot three-pointers. Howard can attract double teams, and Yang Shuai's ability is no less than him.

After receiving the ball, Yang Shuai rushed forward quickly. His first step was so strong that even though Pietrus was prepared, he still couldn't resist it.

"Porphyry!" Pietrus moved his body and collided with Yang Shuai, hoping that such physical contact would disturb Yang Shuai. If his strength reached the level of James and Artest, maybe he succeeded, but he failed

No, so he hardly interfered with Yang Shuai.

After a slight pause that was almost imperceptible, Yang Shuai started rushing to the basket again, but Pietrus, who was gambling in defense, could no longer keep up with Yang Shuai's footsteps.

When Yang Shuai rushed to the basket, the Magic's defense inevitably began to shrink. Seizing the opportunity, Yang Shuai quickly threw the ball out, 45 degrees to the left, Rasheed Wallace.

Wallace's three-point attack mostly comes from the top of the arc, but the Magic players did not dare to leave such a big open space for him. Almost at the same time as he caught the ball, two Magic players quickly approached him.

.

Pass the ball! Wallace did not choose to attack by himself and push the ball sideways. He chose to pass the ball to the top of the arc, where stood the Warriors' starting point guard, Kirk Hinrich.

There was a brief open opportunity, but Hinrich did not want to give up. He shot from the top of the arc from the three-point line. Hinrich's shooting speed was not too fast, but he could easily avoid Williams who was returning to defend.

"Whoa!" Hinrich's three-pointer was also hit, and the point difference widened to 4 points.

Off the court, Stan Van Gundy frowned. He was very satisfied with the team's three-pointers, but he was extremely dissatisfied with the team's perimeter defense. There was not much time left in the second quarter, and Stan Van Gundy was thinking about the ball.

The team took advantage of the good touch in this period to tie the score or even take the lead. However, to achieve this, it is not enough to rely on their own team's offense. They must defend the Warriors' offense.

Howard got the ball, and the Warriors double-teamed again. The Magic's perimeter offense was really good in this section. Their ball movement was very fast. This time, Pietrus found the opportunity.

"The Magic hit another three-pointer... Oh, step on the line, two-pointer!"

On the court, Van Gundy shook his head with regret. If the ball was a three-pointer, his team might be able to take the lead if they defended against the next attack.

Defense! The key is to defend! When Van Gundy thought of this, he immediately shouted towards the court: "Pay attention to guarding their perimeter and follow them closely."

It was still Yang Shuai who had the ball, but he did not choose to dribble and attack at this time. He handed the ball to Wallace in the high position, and Yang Shuai had already started running.

Jackson bypassed the three-point line on the left, ran to the free throw line, received Wallace's hand-off pass, and went straight to the basket, while his defensive player Carter was blocked by Wallace at this moment.

.

Lewis' reaction was not slow. He rushed out from Wallace's side and followed Jackson to the basket. Carter also circled out from behind Wallace at this moment and chased after him equally quickly.

"Missed someone! Missed someone!" Van Gundy quickly waved his hands on his hips on the sidelines. He even wanted to run onto the court and yell at Carter and Lewis. Didn't they know that this would free up Wallace?

Realizing that there were two defensive players following him, Jackson realized that his teammate had an open space. He shook his head slightly, and with a glance from the corner of his eye, Jackson immediately found the Magic's defensive loophole, picked up the ball and shot it directly behind his head.

Throw, the ball has been sent to Wallace's hands by Jackson.

After receiving the pass, Wallace did not take action. Just when he got the ball, a figure flashed in front of him. Before he could see who it was, Wallace heard Yang Shuai's voice coming from behind him.

Yang Shuai's voice was very low, but it was still heard by Wallace, who then flicked the ball back from his waist.

It was Pietrus who appeared in front of Wallace. He followed Yang Shuai and ran towards the top of the key. When he saw that Wallace had an open opportunity at the free throw knot, he could not pretend not to see it, although he

Knowing that this may allow Yang Shuai to get an open position.

Seeing that Wallace did not shoot but chose to pass the ball, Pietrus realized something was wrong. He wanted to rush towards Yang Shuai quickly, but Wallace's body blocked him at this moment.

After finally getting around Wallace, Pietrus looked outside the three-point line. When he saw that Yang Shuai had taken off to shoot, he knew that he could no longer stop the ball. Now he could only pray to Yang.

Handsome shots don't go in.

"Whoops!" The voice that followed told Pietrus that the prayer was ineffective.

"Yang hit a three-pointer, 5-point lead, keep going!" Barnett shouted excitedly. In this game, the Warriors have not had many scoring opportunities, and the score has not been able to open up, but now it seems that

Extremely hopeful.

"Fuck!" Van Gundy cursed secretly, three-pointers. He told him to guard against three-pointers, but judging from the current situation, the players on the field did not listen to him at all.

Lewis got a chance to attack from outside the three-point line, but his shot was interfered by Rasheed Wallace's timely defense. The ball bounced out of the basket. Yang Shuai rushed inside to grab the rebound and did not take the ball.

He left it to Hinrich and dribbled toward the frontcourt himself.

"Defend! Defend that guy!" Van Gundy yelled off the court. The Warriors' fast break ability made all teams in the league fearful, and Yang Shuai was the most troublesome figure among them.

Pietrus ran in front of Yang Shuai with a vigilant look on his face, his eyes completely falling on Yang Shuai. Of course he knew that he had to defend against Yang Shuai's fast break, but he knew even better how difficult it was to defend against him.

Rushing across the center line, Yang Shuai's speed was still very fast. Pietrus kept moving back, and then stopped near the three-point line. He remembered the coach's words, to guard against the opponent's three-pointers, fast break three-pointers.

Points are Yang Shuai's representative scoring method.

"Whoosh!" The rushing Yang Shuai suddenly accelerated. Pietrus, who had reacted, hurriedly turned sideways to move, but the absolute gap in speed made it impossible for him to do all this. The speed of Yang Shuai who was rushing just now

It was not fully utilized at all. At this time, Yang Shuai's super speed was truly revealed.

Like a gust of wind blowing, Yang Shuai's figure rushed past Pietrus, like a sharp knife piercing the heart of the Magic insider.

Almost subconsciously, several Magic players moved towards the inside, which made Stan Van Gundy feel a little hazy in his heart.

"Sure enough." Before he had time to worry too much in his heart, Stan Van Gundy saw that the ball in Yang Shuai's hand had flown out, and the target was Stephen Jackson from the outside!

"Stephen's ball from outside the three-point line... hit the ball! Three-pointer! Assist from Young, wow, another three-pointer, the Warriors are 8 points ahead!"

"Stephen!" "Stephen!" "Yang!" "Yang!" In the fanatical atmosphere of the scene, the Magic tried to launch a final counterattack before halftime, but...

"Yang, broke through with the ball from outside the three-point line, made a pull-up jumper, and shot at the buzzer! 10 points! The Warriors are 10 points ahead. In the outside competition, the Magic completely lost!"
