Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 285 ["Magician" Hayes]

The magic has been beaten...

Worse still to come, Nelson missed a breakthrough jumper, Howard, who was eager to grab an offensive rebound, pushed Hayes, who was stuck in a favorable position, and received his second foul needlessly and was replaced for a rest.What the Magic are most afraid of is that Howard is troubled by fouls, because there is really no one inside them.

The game had just started, and veteran Foyle came on the court and sat on the inside.Foyle was slow and had no rebounds, no blocks, nothing.

After Howard left the field, Hayes immediately went to the low post to ask for the ball to attack. After receiving the ball, he turned to the middle and shook Tony Batty to make a jumper. 15 to 4.

The outside line composed of Nelson, Carter, and Turkoglu took on the heavy responsibility of offense.But it was difficult for them to break through the Bobcats' defense. The 122 zone defense completely occupied the interior space, forcing the three to shoot from the outside.

In the next few minutes, Carter played well under the defense of Mike Miller and scored 6 points, but others were not so lucky. Turkoglu and Nelson hit consecutive irons.

Barkley said with a smile: "Last season, someone raised the theory that Turkoglu was the first player. Today, everyone can forget about it. He couldn't find the target under Durant's defense."

Another blacksmith of the Magic, Jamal Nelson, is a controversial role.During this period, he regarded himself as the leader of the Magic, missed 5 shots in a row, and was blocked by Mike Miller when he defended.Not to mention organizing the offense, his task is to bring the ball to the frontcourt, break through his own offense or throw the ball to Carter and Turkoglu to organize.

In Hayes' previous life, Nelson was selected to the All-Star Game in 2009, but missed due to injury.But is his strength really qualified to participate in the All-Stars?

In 2009, the Magic reached the Finals. Point guard Nelson came back early and was reused by coach Stan Van Gundy.

Coach Van Gundy directed the Magic all the way in the playoffs to eliminate the defending champion Celtics and the popular Cavaliers and led the Magic to the Finals for the second time in 14 years. Many people were optimistic about the Magic, but Nelson, who was recuperating from his injury, appeared .

At first, the general manager and the owner of the Magic said that it was impossible for Nelson, who still needed two months to recuperate, to play, but they finally decided to let Nelson, who had not played in four months, come back with the dream of winning.

Whether Nelson can come back is determined by the club, but coach Van Gundy will have the command after the comeback.In the first game, he averaged Nelson and starting guard Alston, and the Magic lost 25 points.In the second game, he deliberately reduced Nelson's playing time. The Magic missed a layup at the last second before losing in overtime.Alston played perfectly at home in the third game, and the Magic won by 4 points.In the fourth game, Alston was inexplicably refrigerated again, and he did not show up in the crucial fourth quarter and overtime. The reused Nelson failed to mark the defensive Lakers guard Fisher, allowing the latter In the last 4 seconds of the quarter and the last critical moment of overtime, two key three-pointers were scored.Alstom expressed his dissatisfaction after the game. He said: "I was shocked and could not explain it. I was neither injured nor asked to end."

Nielsen's performance and data are not as good as Alstom.But in the fourth game, he played twice as much as in the third game.Destroyed the "chemical reaction" that the Magic had previously established in the Eastern Conference playoffs.Magic facing the Lakers is tantamount to committing suicide.
Alston returned to the starting lineup for the fifth game, but it was too late.The Lakers finally defeated the Magic 4-1 to win the championship.

Nelson is an attacking guard. The Magic rely on Turkoglu and Carter to organize the offense. I really don’t know where Nelson is strong. He just shoots more accurately on the offensive end, but when it comes to the defensive end, his height of 183 cm immediately becomes a colander. When the opponent shoots a jumper in front of him, he has to watch.

In 2005, the Magic challenged the 76ers in an away game. Facing Iverson, Nelson almost let Iverson break through and shoot as casually as in daily training.At the end of the game, everyone found that Iverson scored 60 points, thanks to Nelson's defensive skills!
如今对阵山猫，尼尔森防守漏勺的本质显露无疑。比卢普斯在尼尔森面前连中两个三分。第一节比赛还剩4分18秒，山猫30比16领先14分。

The Magic requested a timeout, and the Magic would be ashamed to lose if the game continued.

Stan Van Gundy replaced Carter to rest and replaced Redick.He understands that the Bobcats have a strong substitute, so he must save the strength of the main players in advance and prepare for the main players to play early in the second quarter.But how to defend, he still has no good way.Can only continue to defend.

At this time, the Bobcats also substituted.Gerald - Wallace replaced Mike - Miller, George - Hill replaced Billups, Landry replaced Bargnani.

D'Antoni changed his tactics, gave up the "triangle offense" and played double pick-and-roll instead.This is a new tactic the Bobcats have practiced in the team, and it works well.In the team training, Rondo, Morrow and other rookies used this tactic to win the veteran lineup composed of Billups, Camby and others.

"George (Hill), you take the ball across the half court, give it to Chuck to set up, and then the baseline is ready to cut inside, Gerrard is on the baseline to give George off the ball. Carl (Landry) pulls high, Give Kevin an off-ball screen, and Chuck can choose to attack by himself or pass the ball in the high position." D'Antoni held the tactical board and gestured to the players on the field.

Hill's passing is poor, but the Bobcats don't need him to organize the offense. The organizer is Hayes.

The game begins.After replacing Carter, the Magic's offense was also organized by Turkoglu, which is a bit difficult for Turkoglu. The success rate of the two inside singles is surprisingly low. Passing outside, Nelson and Redick's shots are better, but Being tightly entangled by the opponent's players, there is no chance.Turkoglu relied on the cover to play himself, and made a jumper with an emergency stop. 30 to 18.

Turkoglu felt that he had regained some touch, and he was going to attack like this to help the team bite the score.Unfortunately, as soon as the Bobcats attacked, the Magic's defense was immediately defeated.

George Hill took the ball to the front court and handed it to Hayes who ran out of the perimeter.Then he ran to the bottom line according to the coach's arrangement.Hayes dribbled the ball on the outside and arched Turkoglu a few times, observing the situation on the court.Gerald Wallace screens for George Hill on the right baseline, Hill slips past Nelson and goes inside, while Landry screens for Durant to draw the Magic on the left defense.

Hayes saw all this in his eyes, and at the same time his feet began to move, took a step to the side, and passed the ball hard to the baseline with one hand.Hill received the basketball, took advantage of the momentum and accelerated for a layup! 32 to 18.

The Magic's offense is still very monotonous. Without Howard, the Magic's outside players' shooting percentage will drop by at least 10%.Turkoglu passed to Nelson, who passed Hill, and then missed Landry's rebound. Hayes won the backcourt rebound.

Hayes dribbles past Tony Barty and passes to Wallace on a fast break.Turkoglu and Redick returned to defense, defending Wallace and Durant respectively. After receiving the pass from Wallace, Durant did not choose to attack Turkoglu and passed the ball back to the outside. Haye Si followed up in the middle and went straight to the basket.Turkoglu let go of Durant and was about to cover Hayes from the side. Hayes glanced behind him, took the ball with one hand, stepped forward, and went straight to the basket.

'Want to fuck hard?bring it on! 'Turkoglu played with all his strength, he had already made up his mind that the ball should be severely fouled to prevent Hayes from scoring easily.

At this time, Hayes suddenly threw the ball like a slippery hand and hit the backboard.Turkoglu looked behind Hayes and understood what was going on.Landry followed up from behind, caught the bounce ball off the backboard with both hands, and made an alley-oop dunk! 34 to 18.

Landry's momentum was too strong, he grabbed the basket with his hands, hung his body across the basket and circled around the basket, beat his chest and roared after landing, his arrogance reached the extreme!The Magic's two insiders are not very athletic, so D'Antoni replaced Landry to play center in order to run against the opponent.

Kenny Smith opened his mouth and shouted: "This ball can be used in the slam dunk contest, the Bobcats have already started to perform!"

"I hope there will be more scenes like this..."

Barkley hadn't finished speaking.Turkoglu broke into the inside with the ball and didn't make a throw.Wallace grabbed the rebound, and this time, it was Hayes who had the fastest break.Wallace's long pass goes straight to Hayes on the left.

Redick kept up with Hayes, and the power gap between the two was relatively large.Redick was about to foul, but Hayes wasn't the only one on the fast break, Hill was on the right.Redick stood in the middle.

Nelson also caught up, saw the opportunity, and made a steal from the side.Hayes picked up the ball with his right hand, went around his back and handed the ball to his left hand. Both Nelson and Redick were attracted by his action. The two moved at the same time to double-team Hayes. There are too many, only an emergency stop to shoot and pass to Hill.

The two thought that Hayes would pass the ball, but they couldn't imagine what action Hayes would use to pass the ball, and how fast he would pass it.

Hayes' left hand was also behind his back, and he caught the ball and sent it to Hill on the other side. Nelson watched the ball pass by his eyes, but his arm was too short to reach it...

Hill took the ball and took a big step, jumped up, his body was tense like a bow, and dunked the ball with one hand! 36 to 18.

Almost every rookie in the Bobcats gets a chance to perform.Hill continues this trait.The fans were going crazy in the audience.Hayes sent consecutive wonderful assists.

The Magic's offense was weak.

At this time, Stan Van Gundy regretted replacing Carter a bit. He was hesitating, should he replace Carter again?After resting for less than 2 minutes, it was replaced again.This is simply like people proving that his coach's on-the-spot adaptability is rubbish.Anyway, there is still more than a minute to end, and the players on the field are still asked to persevere.

This persistence is a bad thing.Redick missed an outside shot.Hayes grabbed another rebound.The ball was grabbed very easily. Tony Batty and Foyle were scared by the Bobcats fast break. Seeing that they were not stuck, they immediately withdrew to the backcourt to defend. Hayes handed the ball to Hill, and the Bobcats fell. war.

Hill went upfield and passed the ball to Hayes, and he ran to the baseline again, ready to repeat the trick, cutting from the baseline on a screen.Hayes used Landry's cover to break through himself.He shakes off Turkoglu, then dribbles the ball to the baseline from the left with Tony Barty on the back-up.Turkoglu let Landry go after Hayes from behind.He doesn't trust Tony Barty to guard Hayes.

Hayes stepped back and swayed out of space when he didn't shoot, but passed the ball out of the lane.Durant ran to the left baseline to catch the ball. The defender had been replaced by Redick. Durant relied on his height advantage to catch the ball and shoot!The ball went in again! 38 to 18.

The Bobcats have already led by 20 points in the first quarter!Hayes sent 8 assists in a single quarter, and the home fans collectively chanted "Magician"!
