Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 239 [Tough to win! 】

111 to 109.Landry makes an alley-oop dunk!

Landry stayed where he was after the dunk, unable to believe it was real for a long time.It wasn't until his teammates rushed up and pressed him to the ground that he was sure that he really killed the Magic...

Hayes stood by but became a supporting role.

"Hayes is indeed a leader." Kenny Smith sighed: "It is only 4 seconds to pass such a ball calmly. It is too powerful to kill the opponent in this way. The Magic should pay attention to the defense at the last moment The focus was not on Landry, Turkoglu left the position without authorization to defend Hayes, and no one thought that the Bobcats would pin their hopes on the rookie at this time."

"It's a pity that Chuck couldn't break the scoring record. If the Magic didn't foul too badly, he might have done it." Barkley sighed and laughed.

"56 points is already comparable to Jordan's score. Don't forget that Jordan scored 63 points in two overtimes, and Jordan lost that game, but Hayes won a perfect game today. Smith said: "It's wonderful. The Magic's unscrupulous defense in the last quarter was reversed by the Bobcats. This is a game that can be recorded in history. Listen to the applause and cheers of the fans. This is the home of the Magic."

Yes, the Magic home fans are applauding the Bobcats, who are more qualified to win this game than the Magic.The victory of the Bobcats has created a classic. If the Magic sweep the Bobcats with fierce fouls, only regret and controversy will be left for people.

海耶斯38投21中，三分球10投4中，罚球15中10。砍下全场最高的56分，外加8篮板8助攻2抢断2盖帽。凭借海耶斯的准三双数据，山猫上演惊天大逆转客场战胜了魔术。

Landry scored 16 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, and was the second contributor to the Bobcats' victory.Landry, who was selected first in the second round, unexpectedly became the most watched rookie of the year.

魔术德怀特-霍华德15分18篮板的大号两双，尼尔森28分4篮板4助攻，文斯-卡特19分6篮板6助攻，特科格鲁只得到13，全场5次失误。专家们对他的评价一下子从被低估变成了被高估。

D'Antoni said excitedly when commenting on the game: "This is a great victory. Not many people were optimistic about us before the game. They thought the Bobcats were a new army and the players were too young to withstand the pressure. But we have the league The best player, as long as Hayes is around, we have the hope of winning. The young players have also accumulated valuable experience in this game, and they have learned how to fight and win in the face of adversity. We will also win in the next game Put in all your strength, the Bobcats have not been eliminated!"

Stan Van Gundy said in an interview: "Today we lost to Hayes. He was too strong and made many difficult shots. Our players have nothing to do with him. Only one person before him can have Such a performance, that is Jordan. Hayes won the regular season MVP, and he deserves it!"

The reporter asked: "In the fourth quarter, the Magic players fouled Hayes many times during the game. There were a few times when the action was very big and the scene was almost out of control. Is this a tactical arrangement?"

Stan Van Gundy explained: "I asked the players to be tougher when defending, but Barty's foul was not a tactical arrangement. He should have been eager to prevent Hayes from laying up and did not stop. I don't believe it. He's the type to hurt people on purpose."

The reporter interviewed Hayes again. "Today's game made you the player with the highest score in a playoff game by an active NBA player. What do you think?"

Hayes said with a smile: "I stepped on the basketball court today with only one thought, that is to win. In order to win, I must do my best to shoot and score. I don't want to be swept out! I got 56 points without knowing it , this night may leave something for the fans to remember. This is my first 50+ in the playoffs, but it will never be the last. Also I want to thank my teammates, especially Landry , The last ball was caught beautifully!"

The reporter asked: "You had a little friction with Turkoglu in the fourth quarter today. Can you tell me what happened at that time?"

Hayes sneered: "There is nothing I can't say about this. I know this game is broadcast live nationwide. You can watch the video of the game. I don't want to say more about Tony Batty's foul. Turkoglu defended in the fourth quarter. At that time, every thug foul was with a fist instead of a palm. There were three hard hits on my right wrist. My wrist is still very swollen. I don’t know who taught this defensive method Yes, friends who love basketball must not learn."

The reporter asked: "Does the Bobcats have the confidence to win the next game?"

"I have always been very confident. I just hope that the game is a fair competition between players on both sides based on their strength, instead of fouling players without the ball and making the game fragmented. And some people don't play black hands just because they can't defend , There are not many stars in the league, if the stars are all injured by fouls, and the remaining group of role players rely on small movements to play, even if they win the championship, it will be boring, right?" Hayes said, he did not give any Turkoglu save face.

The next day, Hayes' words at the press conference reached David Stern verbatim.

League vice president Mark Ballack suggested: "Hayes played at a superstar level in this game, and people have begun to compare him with Jordan. In the next game, should we do something? If the Bobcats can win 0-3 Reversing and eliminating the Magic when they are behind, Hayes will create a legend."

"Mark, I don't think so. If we let the referee's calls favor the Bobcats, someone will always see it. Hayes also mentioned fair play in an interview, and we plan to use fair play as a publicity next season. Slogan. As the first image spokesperson for the league next season, Hayes will be questioned if he reverses the Magic by relying on the star whistle. I don’t want him to become another LeBron James. Although he is strong, he is not perfect.” Stern said lightly.

"Then what are you going to do?" Barak asked.

"Don't give the Bobcats and Hayes any special treatment in the game, and even the Magic's fouls must be kept silent. In this series, the Magic are willing to use foul tactics and let them continue to use them. Go to professional people and put All the flagrant fouls and serious fouls of the Magic in the game were found out and made into a clip, which was posted on the Internet. It was publicized that the Magic won by fouls in this series, and won by force. In this way, fans will sympathize and support Haye Si. Let’s justify the Bobcats’ strength first, and then stand up high-profile and say that we will strictly control the foul penalty scale, and shout out the slogan of fair competition next season. In this way, Hayes’ reputation will reach its peak. He is completely Relying on strength to win the league MVP, not a star who is promoted by the league!" Stern laughed.He is an old fox, well-run.Akari seems to support the Magic this season, but he is actually preparing to back Hayes.

"But in this way, it is difficult for the Bobcats to break through this series. If Hayes' Bobcats are out early, will it affect the ratings of the game?" Barack asked again.

"This season, with Yao Ming in the east and Timberwolves in the west, will there still be a lack of ratings? There is no need to think too much about what the Bobcats can achieve in the end. The Bobcats lineup is not good. Even if they get away with the Magic, it will be very difficult. go away."

If Hayes' strength and Stern's hand-picked star whistle, the Bobcats are likely to beat the Magic and create a comeback history when they are behind 0 to 3.But Hayes chose a difficult path.This is the fairness he wants!
The fifth game was played at the home court of the Bobcats.

Tony Batty was suspended for one game due to a second-level malicious foul in the last game. The Magic's internal strength declined, and the Bobcats had a good chance to win the game.However, Weaver was also suspended for one game because he left the bench and rushed to the court. Both sides lost a role player.

Landry, who became famous in one goal, once again entered the starting lineup.When he played, the audience applauded enthusiastically, second only to Hayes in popularity.The outstanding performance of the last game made D'Antoni pay more attention to Landry.

The fans were in high spirits, but the Bobcats were not optimistic.Hayes wore a black wristband on his right hand. In the locker room not long ago, Hayes' right wrist was still covered with ice. Turkoglu's foul injured Hayes' wrist and ulna.Although not serious, but when shooting, Hayes can feel some pain in the wrist.The pain will affect his shooting, just a momentary pause, the rhythm is different, and the whole state is different.

Hayes still insisted on training yesterday, and he trained very well.He has no plans to miss any games because of this injury.If he misses one game, there may not be another.Sometimes people have to get over hurt.Hayes will choose to give up with a knee injury, but it's just a wrist injury.

In this game, the Bobcats have a new starting lineup, Felton, Azubuike, Hayes, Landry, Biedrins.

The reason why Felton started was because D'Antoni's tactics were very clear, strengthening breakthroughs and attacking Howard.As long as Howard is troubled by fouls, there are only a few low-level players that the Magic can use inside.

The Magic starting lineup has also been adjusted.Nelson, Bogans, Carter, Turkoglu, Howard.After Tony Batty was suspended, veteran inside players Garrity and Brian Cook were not qualified to start.Although Cook has a three-point stunt, his defense is too poor.Garrity is slow, and it's time to retire.So Stan Van Gundy put Turkoglu at power forward and started with the better defensive Bogans.

The Magic took the lead in the opening game, but at 8 minutes and 12 seconds into the first quarter, Howard was substituted for two fouls.Afterwards, the Bobcats attacked the inside wildly and succeeded frequently.The Bobcats led by 30 points 26 to 4 in the first quarter.

Howard returned to the field in the second quarter, and Hayes hit the basket hard, which quickly caused Howard's third foul.The magic is empty inside. Although Turkoglu is 208cm tall, his style of play is not strong enough and he plays poorly at the power forward position.Gortat and Landry successfully dunked inside the Magic, and Azubuike and Calderon also hit three-pointers one after another, opening the score in one fell swoop.The role players of the Bobcats finally showed their strength.

霍华德整场比赛受困犯规，全场只拿下8分8个篮板2次封盖，山猫主场104比88轻松再胜一场。山猫球员5人得分上双，海耶斯出场37分钟，24分12篮板10助攻砍下三双。

Fans saw the hope of the Bobcats comeback.

The bad thing is that although Hayes scored a triple-double, his shooting percentage dropped sharply, and his right wrist injury affected his performance.
