Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

In G2 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, although Zuo Li did not score in the opening game, two assists helped the Knicks still take the lead steadily.

The Magic's third offense was still strong. Although Nelson's breakthrough pick-and-roll passed Curry, he failed to live up to his expectations. The ball was crooked from the moment it was released.

Zuo Li blocked his position and collected the rebound steadily. However, he did not rush to speed up, but instead suppressed the rhythm for two seconds. Because the position was playing well just now, rashly speeding up may harm his team's rhythm.

This scene also made Director Zhang marvel in admiration: "We all know that the Knicks like to play defensive counterattacks. The Magic tried their best to defend. Zuo Li suppressed the rhythm and did not rush blindly. Our position is still good.

Being in position with you, this kind of tactical quality is really rare."

Some fans burst into laughter, saying that Director Zhang started to play Zuoli again. Although it was embarrassing, do it more, we like to hear it.

However, knowledgeable fans will know that Director Zhang is really not bragging this time. Whether a player is good or not depends not only on his physical fitness, but also on his ability to read the game on the court and whether he can make decisions that are good for himself and the ball.

The team’s best judgment…

Not everyone can do this, not even most players can do it, which is why fans sometimes see some inexplicable collapses. The final analysis is that when problems occur on the court, no one can adjust the rhythm in time.

For example, at this time, the opponent uses chaos to attack you. The most important thing you should do is to control the rhythm and not be led away by the opponent. If you are still the same as the opponent, charging against each other and charging above, the final result will be certain.

It was blasted.

This is also the reason why Paul is a super point guard. He has this ability. Wherever Paul goes in the future, there will be playoffs and even a qualitative leap. This is because his ability to read the game is very good and he knows that he is on the court.

What should be done is very difficult.

Players with this kind of ability are extremely rare among centers. After all, they don’t control the ball, and most of them are tactically weak. It’s good if they don’t cause trouble. For example, I, Big McGee, a man known as a lower-body superstar, often do it because of this.

And here are the five big embarrassments.

Zuo Li has such ability, which is why coaches from all walks of life value him. As a center and core, Zuo Li can control the situation on the court immediately and make the most reasonable judgment. This ability is what makes him versatile.

The foundation of the pitch.

Otherwise, Coach Hibbert, Zuo Li's former mentor, said in an interview that even if Zuo Li didn't jump so high and his confrontation wasn't so strong, he would still be able to gain a foothold in the NBA.

At that time, many people didn't take it seriously and just thought it was Coach Qiu's preference for Zuo Li. How could they know that Hibbert was speaking from the bottom of his heart.

Just relying on this consciousness and the ability to read the game, coupled with the spirit of hard work, even if he is not able to fly into the sky and escape like he is now, he will become the squirming essence of human beings.

No, as soon as the Magic changed their defense, Zuo immediately changed his style of play. It might have been tough to switch to a center, but Zuo immediately found the Magic's opening!

You use two insiders to flank me, Randolph, and you just ignore it?

Then I'll beat you for nothing!

I'll pass it on!

I'll pass it on!

I'll pass it on!

So the Magic found that they had used their ultimate move, but nothing happened. Although Zuo Li didn't score a point in the opening game, Randolph scored ten consecutive points!

Randolph, who had a weak hand under the basket, ran and looked at his hands in surprise when he hit the board for the fifth time and put the ball into the opponent's basket.

Thanks to the gift of nature, this is a new high in consecutive playoff points in Randolph's career.

And Zuo Li happily received 5 assists, which was more than his opponents combined.

Although the Magic also scored 5 points and didn't seem to be far behind, they were completely passive on the field. They relied entirely on the personal abilities of Carter and Nelson to score points. Their overemphasis on defense made their offense jerky. Oh, it might not just be because of that.

Defense, this staffing, lack of organization is normal.

Nelson plus Carter, this is not appropriate for one person and one ball.

Everyone knows that Kobe doesn't pass the ball in the four major positions, but they don't know that the other three are even worse.

It is not easy for Howard to get the ball, and because the left winger is not very strong on the offensive end, if he simply comes back to guard Howard, he will not be able to catch the ball. The left winger has long arms, and standing behind you is like running in front of you.

In the next round, he finally got the ball. He turned around and opened the way with his elbow, but Zuo Li raised his arms to block the line. Howard threw it directly into Zuo Li's hand...

Block shot!

The dropped ball was still caught by Zuo Li, which is amazing!

Great strides forward!

One-stop dunk to score the first point tonight!

"It's cool!" Zuo Li greeted the audience relaxedly after landing, and the audience burst into applause.

Throughout the first quarter, Zuo Li had 4 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds and 3 blocks. His performance was very comprehensive. Under his leadership, the Knicks led 28-20 by 8 points. Under his defense, Howard did not score a point. In fact, he did.

He had a chance to score points, but Howard missed two free throws. He was not up to par!

Fortunately for the Magic, Carter was in good form tonight and Bellinelli could not restrict him. His three three-pointers in a single quarter prevented the Magic from being defeated.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Knicks asked Danny Green to come on as a substitute to form a defensive barrier with Chandler, K6 replaced Curry, and Anderson added David Lee inside. A complete bench lineup competed with almost the entire starting lineup of the Magic.

The Magic had a slight upper hand. Although Anderson worked hard enough, Howard couldn't be defended by him alone. The Warcraft finally started rolling in the paint and scored 6 consecutive points.

However, the Knicks did not suffer in scoring. Ke Liu's jump shot and David Lee's half-interception helped the Knicks stabilize the situation. After 3 and a half minutes, the Magic recovered by 2 points.

"Isn't this the same as not chasing?" Director Zhang gave instructions.

When Zuo Li came on the stage with new players Dragic and Curry at dual points, the Magic's physical strength was a bit stretched.

Howard persisted for another minute, and finally had to leave the game to recover health and blue, and Zuo Li finally caught Gortat and used his footsteps again to teach continuously.

Gortat's face was black when he came off the field, he was beaten so badly.

In this quarter, Zuo Li scored 8 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks. Nelson was so blocked that he only dared to pull out and shoot a jumper.

10 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists and 6 blocks in the half, almost a triple-double.

Not a lot of points but enough to watch, not a lot of rebounds but crucial ones, assists that totally amaze everyone, and blocks that are amazing!

Four words, so terrifying!

So wet, so wet~

The guys on the Magic bench looked at each other...

Damn, this rhythm looks a bit familiar!

Howard: I have a bad feeling...

Da Fan: It should be okay, okay, okay, okay! (You Yang Mi, Yang Mi, Yang Mi!)

Something happened!

Someone will help Magic fans remember this right away.

Barkley: "In the first match this season, Zuo Lizheng scored his second quadruple-double against the Magic! Now halftime has passed, and the quadruple-double is right in front of us again!"

Magic: Thank you!
