"Get the rebound~!!!" Barkley saw that the shot was wrong the moment Novak took the shot.

Novak also knew that, so he went straight to the inside the moment he took action. Although he knew that he was weak in confrontation, he also wanted to make up for his mistake.

At the same time, several Magic players were also involved. Lewis blocked Randolph, and Turkoglu blocked Larry Hughes. Years of cooperation have allowed the Magic to form a complete system.

In an instant, Howard was given a chance to grab rebounds.

But, this time the protagonist,

It's Zuo Li!

Howard and Zuo Li struggled wildly under the basket. It could be seen that their arms were entangled together. This scene was very similar to the famous scene where O'Neal and Barkley hugged each other.

But Zuo Li is obviously not as aggressive as the two others. He just wants to occupy the rebounding position as much as possible. Everyone knows that a good blocking position is almost equal to getting the rebound.

But Howard is strong!

In this era, Howard's rebound awareness is still very good. Even when he was entangled with Zuo Li, he still occupied a more advantageous position. In order to get this rebound, he even gave Zuo Li a gentle blow at the risk of a foul.

Push with your right hand and open your left hand to get the board.

A set of combos that works every time.

However, tonight, Howard experienced what length is justice!

Ahem, I'm talking about arm span here.

"Oh! Zuo Li actually dialed the basketball, but Howard couldn't get it! Ohmama! Such incredible jumping and wingspan! Jump again!" Barkley stood up directly in the live broadcast room, staring at the screen intently.

"Still dancing!"

"The third time, this time Howard dialed the number, but still couldn't get it!"

"the fourth time!"

"omg~! The one who got the basketball is Zuo Li!"

Four times in a row!

After all, Howard still couldn't get the rebound. He looked particularly tired after the continuous confrontation and jumping with one minute left. Howard had tried his best, but he still couldn't last as long as Zuo Li!

Zuo Li, who got the rebound, even had the stamina to jump up from the basket for the fifth time and hit the ball into the basket!

"Ah~!!!"

The scene was in an uproar, obviously stunned by Zuo Li who jumped five times in a row to grab the offensive rebound and score the second offense.

What's more exciting is obviously Howard's face. In just a few seconds, Howard's face went through a wonderful change from black to red, then from red to black, and finally from black to white. Although outsiders can't see it, but from a distance

Zuo Li, who was closest to him, could see clearly.

As for how to see whiteness on a black man’s face…

do not mind the details.

In short, Howard is very unhappy now, and at the same time very surprised, because he found that his most proud talent has nothing to brag about in front of Zuo Li, which is unacceptable to him who calls himself a superman.

But you have to accept it even if you don't accept it. Zuo Li really suppressed him with his talent!

Knicks fans are crazy about it. It is incredible that they can see someone in their lifetime who can suppress Howard with talent!

"Zuo Li! Zuo Li killed the game, he is really incredible!" Barkley said in amazement.

"This is simply not a normal person. No, even among talented monsters, Zuo Li is one of the more monsters." Smith added.

It is not easy for any player to jump to the extreme limit five times in a row, especially in the last minute of the game, when a high-intensity game was played, and it was incredible to be able to fight for rebounds under the condition of huge physical exertion.

Deman is not so exaggerated.

Zuo Li's goal was the decisive factor. He widened the point difference to 5 points, and the Magic's morale was shattered. Nelson made a low-level mistake in the next round. Zuo Li assisted Novak and made a three-pointer.

Novak also made up for the missed shot just now.

With a gap of 8 points and less than 50 seconds, the Magic called the final timeout.

But after the timeout, substitute JJ Redick made a shot, Howard got an offensive rebound, and Nelson passed the ball for the second time...

Time just disappears.

In the end, the Knicks defeated the Magic 99-90 on the road.

Zuo Li played 42 minutes, scoring 28 points, 14 rebounds, 4 blocks, 10 assists and 1 steal, shooting 68.8% from the field and 70% from the free throw line.

This is also the first time that Zuo Li has reached 10 assists, and it is also the second time that Zuo Li has achieved a triple-double. At the same time, Zuo Li has become another inside player in history who can achieve a triple-double with blocks and assists at the same time.

The last one was Shaq O'Neal in 2006. On April 11, 2006, in the Heat's home game against the Raptors, O'Neal only played 28 minutes and scored 15 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists on 7-of-9 shooting. That was also his career triple-double.

He got a triple-double for the second time in his career, thus unlocking the achievement of getting a triple-double with blocks and assists at the same time.

But at that time, O'Pang had been in the league for more than ten years, and Zuo Li had only played less than 20 games at this time, which was quite valuable.

Howard played 43 minutes, scored 19 points, 10 rebounds, 3 blocks, 5 fouls, 5 turnovers, and made 4 of 9 free throws.

After the game, reporters immediately surrounded Zuo Li. In the away game, facing Howard, one of the best centers in the league, he not only scored a triple-double, suppressed Howard in all statistics, but also led the team to a complete victory.

Li's performance tonight was perfect.

However, Zuo Li was very low-key and said frankly that his teammates gave him a lot of support. He especially praised Novak, who made 3 of 5 three-pointers, and Dragic, who scored 10 points and 8 assists. Zuo Li believed that these two will become

A key player for the Knicks in the future.

However, Zuo Li's low profile does not affect the team's respect for him.

D'Antoni immediately praised his disciple: "It's incredible. Although I see him playing every day, I can't believe it every time that I can coach such a good player. He is the best rookie in history."

And Novak also made no secret of his admiration for Zuo Li: "I felt good tonight, but it was all because of the space left by Zuo Li in the paint. He would also encourage me and tell me not to hesitate. Even if I can't make the shot, he will."

He will get the rebound, and the facts prove that he did it."

And Dragic, who played the best performance of his career, expressed his loyalty in public: "As long as Zuo Li asks me to do it, I will do it. His sense of smell is unparalleled."

As for the comparison of abilities between Zuo Li and Howard, everyone in the Knicks naturally supports Zuo Li.

Although Van Gundy emphasized that Howard played well, and also secretly said that the left winger did not dare to defend Howard in the first half, which caused Howard's physical exhaustion, he still failed to satisfy the outside world.

After this game, there have been voices from the outside world saying that Zuo Li is the number one center and we cannot discriminate against him just because he is a rookie.

This view was even supported by many celebrities, and for a while, the fight between the two became more intense.

Howard has been unrivaled in popularity in the past two years, and his All-Star voting can even surpass James and Kobe. However, after this game, the most intuitive performance turned out to be Zuo Li's attitude of trying to catch up with Howard in the first-round real-time voting of the All-Star!

But on the second day, Zuo Li actually surpassed him!

In a word, Zuo Li completely won this game.
