Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

I don’t blame Zuo Li, because even the fans felt that the end of this game was a bit abrupt. The Magic, who had led a whole game, lost like this?

It’s really speechless!

The Magic players obviously couldn't accept this result. They all looked at the score on the big screen with their hands on their hips in confusion, especially Howard. His words before the game were like steel slaps, hitting him in the face one by one, making him feel uncomfortable.

I can't tell the difference between east, west and north.

Van Gundy also had a dull look on his face, as if he couldn't believe that the game would end like this.

"I, I don't know, I haven't had time to look at the data of this game. Maybe, we need to take a good look at the video to see where my problem lies." Van Gundy didn't reply when he was interviewed after the game.

It's over the top.

The fans at the scene didn't even believe that the Magic were beaten to death in the end. Except for the one or two waves of offensive and defensive transitions led by Zuo Li, which affected the Magic's rhythm, the Knicks basically played step by step, and the Magic also

Always taking the initiative on the field.

"So why did we lose?" The fans at the scene were confused one after another. Many people were ready to celebrate and even took off their pants, but you just showed me this?!

So after the game, Magic fans broke the defense and criticized the Magic team from head to toe. Especially in the last round, Lewis, who had no idea what he was doing with the ball and didn't even take a shot, received a lot of bad comments.

There are already emoticons on Instagram. The way Lewis was surrounded with the ball was even transformed into a hen protecting eggs. There is also a classic saying written on it: "Rashad, what you have in your arms is not an egg but a basketball."

, please throw it into the basket, okay?"

How to put it, it's a bit like Jr. Smith who got a rebound at the last moment but escaped all the way in the opposite direction.

But soon, in the TNT live broadcast room, Barkley and Smith used data to reveal the reason why the Magic lost.

Judging from the statistics, 6 members of the Knicks team scored in double figures. Zuo Li, the top scorer, scored 24 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks. Randolph scored 15 points, David Lee scored 14 points, Dragic

With 12 points, Keliu was the sixth man to score a team-high 19 points and 3 assists. Larry Hughes's 14 points was also the first time he scored in double figures in the playoffs.

On the Magic side, the top scorer was Lewis, who missed the buzzer beater. He scored 27 points, Turkoglu had 20 points, and Howard had 20 points and 11 rebounds. All three of them scored 20, but the others did not perform as well.

Excellent, Alston scored 3 points, Courtney Lee scored 5 points, and Pietrus did not score a point.

As can be seen from the scoring range, the Knicks averaged around 25 points per quarter, with very little fluctuation, while the Magic's shooting percentage and points dropped by 10 percentage points in the second half, which is undoubtedly the biggest problem.

So Lewis is not the biggest problem. Over-concentration of scoring and sudden decline in touch in the second half are the main reasons for the Magic's loss.

After the analysis, Smith reminded Magic fans not to worry, as victory or defeat is a matter of course.

"As long as they adjust well, the Magic still have great potential and opportunities."

Smith said this.

This is also generally recognized by the fans. The Knicks didn't have any highlights in this game, and everyone was very dull. If the Magic can maintain their own feel, they should win.

So the Magic fans who came back to their senses encouraged the Magic and asked them to fight back after the game. As long as they fight back, they are still good friends.

But they seem to have forgotten that sometimes teams like the Knicks are the most terrifying because they are very average. This shows that the Magic did not affect the Knicks' normal rhythm. Even if the Magic has been leading, they have not been able to bring down the Knicks.

The rhythm of the game allowed the Knicks to wait for their opportunity.

Stablize!

Sometimes it's the biggest killer.

The Magic apparently forgot this.

…

Two days later, you could feel the atmosphere at the Magic's home court from afar.

"Give those guys some color!"

"Crush them! Come on boys!"

"Kill the New Yorker!"

…

Before the game, the arrogant Magic fans outside the court gave the Knicks fans a slap in the face, and the court was a sea of ​​white. The so-called Korean people are happy and have an atmosphere of white terror.

"Stay steady, make sure shots, don't be nervous, we are ahead anyway." Zuo Li told everyone before going out.

They were leading 2-1. It can be said that they could have let this game go. Zuo Li never expected to lead 3-1. After all, in his mind, besides the Lakers, who are the most difficult team to deal with this season, Magic can

It was a good ending to return to the home court to play Tianwangshan after a draw.

The Knicks generals nodded in agreement. They naturally knew that winning G3 would reduce their pressure drastically, and the atmosphere at the scene did not affect them. After all, everyone has experienced the super devil's home stadium like North Shore Garden.

Unlike the easy points scored by the Magic, the atmosphere of the Magic, who had no way out after losing their first home game, was a bit subtle and tense. This game was a must win for them.

No one expected that mentality would become the most important factor in winning or losing this game.

Zuo Li jumped for the ball at the beginning. The Magic defended very tightly. The moment Zuo Li got the ball, someone immediately came up to help defend. However, such a fierce defense gave Zuo Li a chance to pass to an open teammate!

Chandler took the ball near the baseline and hit a three-pointer without hesitation.

"It's pointless for you to be so defensive." Zuo Li showed his hands to Turkoglu. This guy obviously made a lot more moves tonight and seemed to want to win too much.

After losing the ball, the Magic organized a counterattack. Howard turned his back to fight for the ball. After receiving it, he frantically wanted to make physical contact with Zuo Li. However, Zuo Li was already prepared and withdrew his stool. Howard staggered to complete the shot, but was disallowed.

Walk…

Howard complained unjustly to the referee, but the referee didn't even look at it. You thought he wanted to call this ball, but he had to call it. Even if you think about it six steps, you can bear it. After all, there is already someone who is good at six steps.

, but your little steps are almost enough to catch up with the dance, and it’s really hard to get through without blowing.

This round was a microcosm of the Magic's first quarter. In the first 4 minutes, the Knicks didn't score a single point, allowing the Knicks to go up 14-0. After the timeout, they finally broke the scoring drought. Zuo immediately drew an inside foul.

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks led 34-18.

Van Gundy was almost bald, but he still couldn't stop the points difference from widening.

The situation improved slightly in the second quarter, but the Knicks still led by 20 points at halftime!

It's numb, Magic fans are numb.

Some fans at the scene have already begun to leave. Obviously, this half has completely shattered their hearts. They feel that this, no, this series is going to be over!

"The Magic want to win so much. Their hands are stiff and their body is stiff. It's not possible to play like this. The Knicks are getting better and better as they play, and their hand feel is getting better," Yang Yi said.

During the intermission, Zuo Li couldn't believe his eyes. This was too smooth, so smooth that it was unreal. Is magic really that good?
