The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 94. 94. Well-deserved reputation

Following Su Jiu's two fouls in the first quarter, Nelson also succeeded in taking over Su Jiu's position.

And this lineup does not need any running-in after it comes up again, because this season Nelson has always started with Howard and others.

And when Nelson came up, the Magic's main offensive focus remained unchanged, because as long as Krstic was on the court, Howard's point was an absolute advantage, and it could be said that it was unshakable.

If the Thunder don't use Krstic at the starting center spot, Wilcox isn't much better off the bench.

And Wilcox's ability on the offensive end is completely incomparable with Krstic.

However, after Su Jiu left the field, the quality of the Magic's defense against Durant dropped significantly.

Because neither Nelson nor Turkoglu are good defensive players, and even their defensive efficiency in various positions ranks at the bottom of the league.

Although it can't be called a defensive loophole, at least it has absolutely nothing to do with being good at defense.

As for Pietrus, who currently has the best perimeter defense ability on the field, the player facing up in this game is Sefoloza.

And Sefolosha happens to have the ability to shoot three-pointers from the outside, so this also makes Pietrus dare not act rashly.

This result also led to a significant improvement in Durant's shooting space in the second half of the first quarter.

Facing Lewis, who was not very good at defense, Durant gradually opened up his personal offensive touch.

Both Howard and Howard have their own advantages, and the scores between the two teams are also intertwined, and there is no one-sided situation at all.

In the end, at the end of the first quarter, the Magic team in the away game also ended with:

24:23

With a slight advantage of one point, they are temporarily ahead of the Thunder.

Iss: "At the end of the first quarter, the Magic are leading the Thunder by one point in the away game, but we can also find in the first quarter that Kevin's offense is really getting more and more unsolvable. When he feels better, it is difficult for defenders to cause too much interference with his shooting."

"We also saw several of them. Rashad has already jumped up to block the shot with all his strength, but there is still a long distance from Kevin's shot point."

"And when he was shooting, Rashad didn't dare to give too much physical confrontation, because the league is still relatively strict about collisions with defenders when players shoot in the air."

"So the current situation is like this. The Thunder can't prevent Dwight from overwhelming the basket, and the Magic can't do a good job of shooting Kevin."

"So this also led to a very weak point difference between the two sides in the first quarter."

Sean: "That's right, as Iss said, the Magic has always been regarded as the favorite to win the championship this season, but in fact his lineup is not as perfect as it seems to the outside world, and still has a lot of flaws."

"For example, apart from Michael (Petrus) on the front line, there is no mature defender. In fact, even Michael is not a pure defensive player."

"From the current point of view, Courtney actually has the potential to become an excellent blocker, but he is indeed still very young at present, and the help he can bring to the team is also very limited."

"So I don't know if the Magic will adjust and reinforce this in the middle of this season."

Iss: "But when it comes to Kevin's performance in the first quarter, I have to say that throughout the first half of the first quarter, Su actually did a good job of assisting Kevin in defense."

"Because during that time period, if I remember correctly, Kevin seemed to only make one field goal."

"So during that period of time, the Thunder team was actually very helpless on the offensive end, and then the whole team was also in a backward stage."

"It wasn't until Su made two fouls in the first quarter that Kevin gradually recovered his touch and slowly caught up with the score."

"Many people have said before that Su also has certain accomplishments on the defensive end, especially in the game against this year's No. [-] pick Derek, which surprised people even more."

"Because this is the first game I've broadcast for Su, in fact, all the previous reports on him have been seen in news and videos."

"So so far in this game, Su's performance in the entire first half, although the offensive end is mediocre, but his defensive end has indeed left a very deep impression on me."

"The help defense against Kevin several times also had a very good effect. Although this has something to do with Russell's poor shooting ability, but in the defense route, Su's personal choice is very perfect."

"In addition, Su's end time in the first quarter was also too early, so in fact, the matchup with Russell did not explode as much as we imagined."

"The only close frontal collision seemed to be the foul on Russell in transition."

"So after coming back in the second quarter, let us also look forward to whether the situation on the court can change."

After returning from the second quarter, Su Jiu, who had been off the court for half a quarter, was brought back to the court by Van Gundy.

However, unlike the first quarter, most of the players currently playing with Su Jiu are bench players.

So the Magic started the second quarter, and the current lineups on the field are:

Su Jiu, Redick, Courtney Lee, Turkoglu, and Gortat.

Due to Westbrook's rest, the Thunder's current point guard is Earl Watson, who is only 1.8 meters five.

This is obviously good news for Su Jiu. Although Earl Watson has a high basketball IQ and is fast, his height and weight are his flaws after all.

This hard condition also makes Earl Watson unable to complete the defense well, coupled with Watson's naturally depressed and aggrieved bitter face, it also makes Earl Watson's appearance quite a comic effect.

And it just so happens that Su Jiu is the number one player with excellent physical fitness.

So when he saw that Watson was playing against him, Su Jiu couldn't help laughing even though he had drawn Draymond Green's experience card in this game.

After all, "What can I do, No. 1 abuse food!!" This has always been Su Jiu's personal philosophy...

After Earl Watson held the ball through halftime, his innocent bitter face was in stark contrast to Su Jiu, who was in front of him with a raised mouth.

"Crack!"

With the sound of the shutter, this rather interesting scene happened to be recorded by the cameraman on the sidelines...
