Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

Luxurious or the Magic is luxurious, at least it seems like this now. This is almost a pure All-Star lineup, comparable to the lineups of the Celtics, Lakers, and Cavaliers.

Many people like to evaluate the strength of a team's lineup from a God's perspective, but they don't know that the strength of any player is dynamic. Some stars who look very hip throughout their careers, or players who suddenly fail at the end of their careers

, does not prevent them from being among the league's top stars or even superstars in certain seasons.

For example, Rainman Camp was basically two people before the lockout and after the lockout.

Naturally, to evaluate the strength of a team, one must judge the player's state during the season. Zuo Li never felt that the failure of the Shark King combination this season was James' fault. Similarly, Kidd in the 11th season was not

The so-called super giant beside Dirk, and Larry Hughes was indispensable for the Cavaliers to reach the finals in 2007. Therefore, many people who say that the Magic have not strengthened in 10 years have nothing to do with it. If this lineup is not strong, what is strong?

The Big Three decide on one?

That's not wrong...

Ahem, but it doesn’t matter, the Big Three may not necessarily have good results!

The screen returns to this game.

We can see that the Knicks have made important adjustments to their starting lineup. They have two point guards in the backcourt. Dragic and Curry are playing at the same time for the first time. Randolph has also been replaced by David Lee. This is also the case for David Lee.

Made his second start of the season.

"The Knicks' lineup is very bold, but the defense is a little lax. Is that really okay?" Kenny Smith asked.

It is normal for David Lee to replace Randolph. Randolph also needs to take a break from time to time, which was not uncommon last season.

But after so many games, the Knicks' tactics have been decrypted by many people. Chandler at the third position has a stable position due to his excellent athletic ability, fierce defense, and Danny Green and Belinelli take turns in the backcourt.

For the second position, this is also based on the attributes of the opponent's second position. For example, when encountering someone with strong offensive power like Kobe, Danny Green will come up to build a defense line with Chandler. When encountering someone with average attack level, Belinelli

You can appear on the stage to increase your outside firepower.

As for the No. 1 position, Curry and Dragic take turns starting. Curry has stronger offensive power and a better three-pointer, while Dragic has good organizational skills and is more aggressive in breakthroughs. The two are good at training defenders in D'Antoni.

His subordinates are growing rapidly.

However, these two people have never appeared on the court at the same time. After all, their height and body shape are not suitable for playing the second position, and they can easily be used as a breakthrough by others. After all, their defensive abilities are average.

And tonight, he is facing Carter. Although Carter's ability is far less than it was back then, his athletic ability has declined drastically due to Bowen stepping on his feet. He has lost his speed and is more like a pure shooter from the outside. He still needs to hold the ball and play in singles.

That kind of thing, but he was able to get 20.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists last season. No matter who is used to defend him, it feels like he can't stop Carter.

If he knew what Kenny was thinking, Zuo Li would definitely smile. Who said we would have to defend against them tonight?

What we want is attack!

Defense?

Just leave it to me!

In the first attack, the Magic retreated quickly, so they couldn't see anything. All they knew was that Zuo Li beat Lewis with his back on the inside.

Don't look at Howard shouting for joy before the game. He is not stupid. He will not go head-to-head with Zuo Li on the defensive end. He only wants Zuo Li to defend him, and he does not want to spend too much energy on the defensive end. He wants to

Attack, use offense to regain the face lost last season in front of Zuo Li!

Howard has always been an athlete with strong self-esteem. He has grown up surrounded by praises. He is tired of hearing about Ewing, O'Neal's successor, and super center.

But all these honors disappeared a year after Zuo Li entered the league. Now when talking about the number one center, the first thing people think of is definitely Zuo Li, and his popularity was instantly killed by Zuo Li.

How could Howard endure this?

In order to defeat Zuo Li, Howard worked hard in the summer. He didn't even go to nightclubs very often. He only went to nightclubs about 100 times in four months. He didn't meet more girls than he did in the past month. He also invited Olajuwon to train him. Who can

I understand the pain of sweating profusely on the training ground and having to rush to the game exhausted at night.

He has lost weight!

But hard work pays off, and he now feels that he is good again, so in the new season, he keeps hinting on various occasions, whether in interviews or privately, that he wants more shooting rights. He not only wants to become a defensive coolie,

You also have to be the core of the offense!

Well, there are always people who don’t understand their own position.

Howard also wants to go to the low post, can he go? He can't go!

However, the Magic still compromised. It was impossible not to compromise. They started making noises about leaving the team as soon as they said it. Van Gundy was already very good, but he was forced to do nothing by Howard. He originally wanted Carter to take more offensive responsibilities, but now Carter

I don’t know how much the number of shots is lower than last season. It’s because Howard always likes to ask for the ball. In addition, Turkoglu is gone, Alston is gone, and Courtney Lee is gone. There are really no one who can pass the ball.

Well, Nelson, Carter can just take it, forget about Pietrus, you can't count on Lewis to organize it.

So playing isolations to Howard in the low post has become a regular offensive method for the Magic!

But, the effect... Anyone who has seen Howard's statistics this season has seen it. He averaged 18.3 points per game, which is two points less than last season.

But at least, Howard has happiness!

However, when Howard chose to play in low singles and played the coveted left wing, his happiness suddenly disappeared!

The two teams played a total of 9 games last season, but there were only a handful of games where Zuo Li and Howard faced each other directly. Even if Tian Ji is racing horses, he will not use his trump card to waste it.

So Howard didn't know that Zuo Li was so tall, his hands were so long, and he was so hard!

Zuo Li: "?"

Please don't say such anxious words.

It's tough!

Last season, Zuo Li was already confident of guarding a center like Howard alone, who has a strong upper body but an unsteady lower body. But this season, the more evolved Zuo Li is not afraid of Howard playing in isolation. He can stand firmly and has strong legs.

It is the inside position that Howard is least good at playing, and his upper body on the left side is equally strong. He can push Howard out, and out of the penalty area, Howard is a shot putter!

Sure enough, Howard, who was blocked by Zuo Li and could not enter the penalty area, turned around and threw a discus-like hook. Zuo Li's long arm almost blocked it, but this did not prevent Zuo Li from collecting the rebound.

Then…

It’s just a long throw~!

Curry caught the ball, Dragic quickly went down, and the Knicks instantly launched a two-line fast break. In 7 seconds, just 7 seconds, Dragic made a layup and scored two points!
