"I'm going to play! I'm going to kick their butts!"

"I am a World of Warcraft, a giant on the court, an absolute superhuman lord! How dare they do this to me, I will beat them to death!"

After a five-minute break between quarters, fans sitting behind the Magic bench could hear Howard's foul language in the extremely noisy environment.

Many people looked at him with sympathy. It was obvious that this player, who made exactly 6 of 12 free throws in a single quarter, was severely tortured by the Knicks' cutting-down tactics.

"Coach, I don't need to rest, I can go straight on the court, and in the last quarter, I'm going to beat them up hard!" Howard, who had vented his anger, promised Van Gundy with red eyes and gritted teeth.

Obviously, Howard's child, who was angered by the Knicks, has become angry again.

However, Van Gundy did not dislike Howard's mood at this time, and even wanted him to be angrier, because anger is one of the most reliable weapons on the basketball court, and even if Howard himself did not ask for it, he planned to do so, so he

He raised his head and shouted loudly: "Listen Dwight, they can't beat you. You have to know that you are the best on the field, that's why they target you like this."

"The last quarter is your battlefield, go ahead and bring victory back to Orlando!"

A similar scene was also played out on the Knicks bench a few meters away, but compared to the Magic's anger, it seemed a bit dull, but there was a little more confidence!

D'Antoni: "Are you ready, young man?"

Zuo Li: "Always prepared."

Then under the trusting eyes of all his Knicks teammates, Zuo Li walked onto the court.

Seemingly feeling something, Zuo Li turned his head and met Howard's scorching and sparkling gaze next door, who had also just stepped onto the court.

At this time, Barkley was beating his thigh and shouted: "It was a fierce battle for three whole quarters! The two sides were still tied. Just like the previous 6 games, the two sides could never completely beat their opponents to death."

"But at this point, in the last 12 minutes, there is nothing to say about the tactics. It's about the stars. It's about comparing whose stars are stronger, more ruthless and more durable. It's about seeing who can really dominate the court. Whoever can dominate will win.

You will win this game and this series, and you will also be the final winner of the Eastern Conference this season..."

"Tear!" Howard said with his lips that Zuo Li was dead. He even secretly performed a small throat-cutting ceremony, then turned and walked into the court.

"Interesting." Looking at Howard's back, Zuo Li murmured to himself, his eyes bursting with more burning will to fight.

Confrontation or something is the most interesting...

Section 4~!

As Barkley said, this quarter changed the pattern of the first three quarters. The Magic began to play more inside, and Howard finally got the best support.

The Magic were also the first to attack. Howard succeeded in a single on the left, and then attracted the defense inside and passed the ball to Turkoglu on the outside. The latter hit the first three-pointer of the quarter and his fourth of the game!

The Magic took a 5-point lead.

But this did not break the Knicks' confidence, because they have Zuoli!

Zuo Li also succeeded in singles against Howard. Although Howard pushed Zuo Li out of the penalty area, Zuo Li's rebound after losing balance not only scored but also caused Howard to get his fourth personal foul!

Standing on the free throw line, amidst the shouts of MVP from the audience, Zuo Li scored his 27th point of the game with a free throw!

Later, Zuo stood in the low post to attract double-teams, then jumped up and passed it directly to Chandler, who had been standing in the opposite corner for a long time. The latter seemed not to expect that the ball could be passed to his hands, but still used a three-pointer

Let the Knicks complete their first comeback in the second half!

90-89!

In the first minute of the fourth quarter, people experienced a suffocating rhythm, and in the following three minutes, the two made the suffocating atmosphere even worse!

Howard caught the ball inside and dunked!

Zuo Li reversed and ran across the baseline. Dragic scored the ball. Zuo Li stretched his body in the air and beat Howard to complete the alley-oop!

Subsequently, Turkoglu bypassed Howard's pick-and-roll and hit a mid-range shot, while Zuo Li used his 9th assist of the game to allow David Lee to score on the board!

Zuo Li then used his sixth block to deny Howard's shot, and Howard also blocked Zuo Li's close pass.

Intense, tense and exciting!

The two big centers showed their abilities without reservation.

In the blink of an eye, 6 and a half minutes later, when the official timeout came, the two sides were tied at 99-99 and the tie continued. This timeout left many fans still unsatisfied.

"It's so exciting! This is the limit of centers in this era. I seem to have returned to the 1990s, the era when the four major centers were showing off their power!" Yang Yi was so excited that he couldn't help himself.

"Yes, it's strong. This game is exciting and beautiful. It doesn't matter whether it's reasonable or not, just fight and it's over!" Zhang Lili guided and reproduced the famous sentence.

Commentators from various countries also said that this was the most exciting center battle in the past 7 games, and the intensity of the pre-game predictions has finally been achieved!

So people are looking forward to the confrontation between the two after the timeout.

The two still did not stop. In the 2 minutes after the timeout, both sides scored 2 points and 1 rebound each, continuing to help their teams maintain the situation.

However, it was visible to the naked eye that both of them were a little tired.

Especially for Howard, Zuo Li's style of play meant that he had to run more to keep up, which also caused him to consume a bit too much physical energy. The number of shots of him holding his knees increased significantly, and beads of sweat stopped on his face, because

There is no extra place for dripping.

In this situation, Zuo Li took action!

When Howard saw Zuo Li appear at the top of the arc again, Howard felt a little liver pain.

Is it over yet?

It’s free to slap your knees like this!

Do you want to retire earlier than me?!

Zuo Li: Don’t be afraid, my buddy has a cheat!

Boom, boom, boom!

crossover!

This time, Howard's knees told him that he could no longer keep up, but his consciousness always followed, which also made his body disconnected!

When Zuo Li completed this dribble, fans all over the world had already stood up, because he knocked the giant Howard to the ground!

Once upon a time, Marbury knocked down Dayao like this. This scene was very similar to tonight, except that Zuo Li was much taller than Marbury.

brush!

Zuo Li completed this jump shot next to Howard.

After landing, the CCTV commentary also exploded. Yu Jia said excitedly: "He is as graceful as a startled dragon, like a swimming dragon. You can't imagine there is anything on this court that Zuo Li can't do!"

The fans in Madison Square went crazy, especially when Zuo Li opened his arms in celebration, it seemed that the entire arena was embraced by him.

Zuo Li's key mid-range hit was fatal to the overall morale of the Magic. When the three big guys Alston, Lewis and Turkoglu pulled up Howard, they found that their inside core was really tired.

Already.

"How is it? Can you still persist?" Turkoglu asked.

"I think it's a little difficult." Howard felt his ankles and knees, and the bursts of discomfort seemed to remind him that they should rest.
