This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 309 Warcraft Six Offenders, Lynx Wins Again!
"Roy also scored 7 points. The Bobcats really have no shortage of scoring players."

"I have to say that in 2006, the recognized year of the draft, the Charlotte Bobcats are really smart. They have included the two best players under their command, and this is the third year of Roy and Zhou Lin. The strength shown by the two players is completely the combat effectiveness of the top-paid players. If I were the owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, I would definitely make some deals this summer. While the two star players are still in the rookie contract, Recruit an All-Star player in his prime, and go for the championship next year."

"It's not easy either!"

"After all, the Charlotte Bobcats are a small ball market, and the top players come here. The team already has Zhou Lin. After coming, even the tactical position can only be ranked second or even third. After Roy, even if If you can come, you don't have to think about the All-Star players in your prime."

"It depends on the operation of the Charlotte Bobcats this summer. It is indeed very imaginative. It is true that the Charlotte Bobcats have enough talent but inexperienced lineup to reach the Eastern Conference Finals today. It also proved the operability of this team and the possibility of going up. If you want to recruit enough high-quality players, it depends on the personal charm of Boss Joe and the ability of the management. Of course, this summer, free There are not many big fish in the market, so recruitment is very important, and some players who are in the middle and late stages of their careers and on the tail of their peaks, for the sake of the championship, can definitely try to go to the Charlotte Bobcats.”

"I think Yao Ming is a good choice. In this way, the running-in of the team's lineup will not be a big problem, and the Charlotte Bobcats will compete in the East with Howard's Magic and Kevin Garnett. The Celtics really need a big killer inside."

The two narrators felt like they were chatting, and they were a bit off topic.

Su Qun was quite calm, and said: "Dayao is not that kind of person. You must know that last summer, Kobe personally recruited Yao Ming. If you think that if Yao Ming adds Kobe, his combat power may not be as strong as that of Gasol and Kobe. Poor, and Gasol may have been the second or even third choice in Kobe’s mind at the beginning, and why didn’t Yao go to Los Angeles, where the money is glamorous? Going to Los Angeles is actually helpful to Yao Ming’s career. The first Lakers It is also a team that has always had a strong center tradition. Yao Ming can be treated as the second Shaquille O'Neal when he goes there. He won the O'Brien Cup, and the exposure in Los Angeles is so high. There, any endorsement should be doubled, but Dayao didn't go. In my opinion, Dayao didn't go here. There are two important reasons. Firstly, Houston refused to let him go, and Yao is a grateful player. The Houston Rockets are kind to Yao Ming. Yao Ming can go to the NBA and reach his current height. The Houston Rockets The team has paid a lot, so Dayao doesn't really want to leave the Rockets. Secondly, Yao Ming is also ambitious. He doesn't want to leave Houston like a deserter. After all, he has played in Houston for 7 years, but he didn't even have the first round. Breakthrough."

"That's right, Dayao is different from Ah Lian. Ah Lian is a young player after all, and to be honest, he is also a bit behind Yao Ming in strength. Yao Ming's movements can almost change the structure of the league."

"However, according to this performance and talent, as long as there are no injuries, even if the Bobcats do nothing in the offseason, the Charlotte Bobcats must be regarded as the most powerful contender for the Eastern Conference championship in the next three to five years one of them."

"Well, let's not gossip. After Roy played a wave of good performance, let's see how Van Gundy arranges the Bobcats' defense."

"In the first half, Howard basically couldn't play. Three fouls are too dangerous. If he comes again, his defensive skills will basically be ruined. Now, it depends on the other main players of the Magic team to stand up, including Hedo Turkoglu and Sharad Lewis, JJ Redick and others, the Magic are a shooting team, and in fact they rely more on shooting than the Bobcats, so shooting is definitely open.”

In fact, in the half of the quarter when Warcraft was off the court and Gortat sucked the inside, the Orlando Magic's shooting touch has recovered. JJ Redick and Cornett Lee both scored three-pointers, but the main The two core players Turkoglu and Lewis struggled a bit beyond the three-point line.

Moreover, the Bobcats' offense was like a flood opening, one wave after another. After Roy finished his work, Zhou Lin threw a few more in, and then Felton and Yi Jianlian each scored points. .

59-46, the Bobcats established a 13-point scoring advantage, but Warcraft Howard could only watch from the sidelines.

"Good job!"

After returning to the locker room, Larry Brown praised the team and arranged tactics for the second half.

It is better to play fast, pass the ball, and all players participate in the offense. The other point is that the Bobcats need to increase the inside breakthrough. Howard has already got 3 fouls. As long as Howard is in the third If he gets the fourth foul in the quarter, even if Howard is not replaced, then Howard's threat will be at least half smaller.

"If Howard is more cautious, it's okay to survive the third quarter and control the number of fouls to less than four times to enter the fourth quarter. If he doesn't control it, then in the fourth quarter, the Magic will inevitably have huge problems inside. .”

"And, this is our home court."

According to the practice of Jianghu, the referee's whistle should be blown towards the Bobcats.

If you don't take advantage of this advantage, you will be reckless.

At the beginning of the second half, Howard, who stayed through most of the quarter and saw the team's momentum getting weaker and weaker, did indeed show his ability as the strongest center in the league at this stage. First, he gave Emeka O. Cafu made a big hat that blocked the sky, and then successively grabbed offensive rebounds and dunks on the offensive end.

Even once suppressed the momentum of the Bobcats.

The only thing that is a bit stretched is that Howard has missed all 5 free throws so far in this game.

When the Orlando Magic chased the score to only 6 points, Larry Brown called a timeout, and he had to adjust.

"Let's all run, cover without the ball, and create more opportunities to attack the basket directly. If you don't feel good, don't play alone. You can use more pick-and-rolls to find suitable means to attack the basket."

In the first round after Larry Brown's tactics came back, Zhou Lin and Yi Jianlian played a pick-and-roll, and in this round, the Orlando Magic directly replaced Warcraft.

"Dwight, are you sure you can guard me?"

"Zhou, you can't pass me!"

While talking to Zhou Lin, Howard pointed to the players on the side, asking other players to do a good job of defending players in other positions.

"This is also a rare scene. It is a direct dialogue between the bosses of the two teams. There is actually not much difference in height between the two. Howard looks almost as tall as Zhou Lin, but the positions of the two are different. It is one inside and one outside. Of course, the wingspan, which is one of the criteria, also has a gap of more than 10 centimeters. However, Howard is going to single-handedly defend Zhou Lin, who is the main player at the third position. The team made mistakes in defense, how can Howard defend Zhou Lin on the outside? Even though Howard, who is the best defensive player this year, is faster than most players, but compared with Zhou Lin. It's a lot worse, let's see how Zhou Lin beats Howard."

It was quite easy for Zhou Lin to beat Howard. If Zhou Lin only wanted to score, Howard’s speed was too late to block Zhou Lin after a cross shot. But this time Zhou Lin’s choice was not to shoot, but very decisive. Going to the basket, in fact Howard's defense was good enough, but Zhou Lin still went to the basket with half a step of space.

But after reaching the basket, Zhou Lin used a small technical move. After reaching the basket, Zhou Lin tricked Howard with a fake shot.

"Oops!"

Howard had tried his best to dodge, but Zhou Lin clearly wanted to cause Howard's foul this time. When Howard was in the air, he took the initiative to lean up.

drop!The referee blew the whistle to save face.

"What? You call me a foul, the referee, this is not a fair penalty, I suggest you check your eyes."

Unconvinced, Howard went to the referee's side. He was arrogant and forced the referee to retreat steadily. Finally, the referee couldn't bear it anymore and directly blew a T.

"Calm down, Dwight."

"How many fouls have you blew on me, so do you."

After Howard was taken away by Alston, he was still chattering.

But the audience at the scene gave Dwight Howard applause "very face-saving" at this moment.

"Zhou Lin is so smart. The ball was going for a foul. He was obviously able to go straight to the layup just now. He is not like a small guard. It takes so long to get to the basketball. In the past, Howard's reaction time is fast, and he can't be blocked."

"Scoring two points against the Magic is far less serious than Zhou Lin's killing of Howard. If I were Larry Brown, if I had to choose between scoring 5 points and making Howard a key foul, I would never give up. Choose the latter without hesitation."

"Howard made four personal fouls, and Zhou Lin had to go to the free throw line this time. Including the free throws for technical fouls, it was a total of 3 free throws. In terms of Zhou Lin's free throw ability, this is no different from sending points. "

"Seeing that the score was getting closer, Zhou Lin still stood up!"

Howard committed four fouls, and there were 4 minutes and 45 seconds left in the third quarter. Even if Van Gundy was brave enough to keep Howard on the court, would Howard still dare to make big moves on the defensive end? It is necessary to be restrained.

Howard was still replaced by Van Gundy.

"Zhou Lin's mind is so clear, he played the ball really smartly, and this should be an important turning point in the game."

"It's kind of like the second game of the series again, Howard goes down and doesn't come up again."

The camera also captured Dwight Howard's emotions. Howard's emotions have not completely calmed down, and Van Gundy is still calming down.

The Orlando Magic were still like G2. They completely collapsed in the third quarter. Polish center Gortat replaced Howard very well.

Moreover, Sharad Lewis also showed signs of recovery at the end of the third quarter, hitting consecutive layups. Whether he played Yi Jianlian or Okafor, he had a certain speed advantage in the matchup.

Accompanied by JJ. Redick's free throw.

At the end of the third quarter, 83-72, the Bobcats still held a double-digit advantage, but the score in a single quarter was chased by the opponent. This was the first time in the first three quarters that they lost in a single quarter.

The score difference of 11 points is not safe, and it is also considered to be a score that can be chased, especially after World of Warcraft has rested for most of the quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Roy made a three-pointer to help the home team increase their points first.

And Alstom also slipped the bottom line to score.

In addition, Turkoglu continuously delivered space shells to Warcraft, and Warcraft ran wild on the Bobcats' basket several times.

Warcraft, which has no foul crisis for the time being, also blocked the layups of Okafor and Felton consecutively. At 5 minutes and 23 seconds of the fourth quarter, the score was chased to only 7 points, but then Howard Just made a big problem.

In the rebound competition, Okafor made an offensive foul.

And judging from the replay, Okafor did occupy a better position for rebounds, and Howard pushed Okafor with his hand in order to grab the position when he was fighting for rebounds. The picture of being pushed to the ground also confirmed that Howard did have a foul.

"Fifth foul!"

"Now, there are still 4 minutes and 46 seconds left. Would you like Da Fan to replace the Warcraft? We will wait for the last 2 minutes to come up, but once the Warcraft goes down, Zhou Lintu and Roy will fight. It is very likely that this game will be directly stretched to double-digit scores, and it doesn't make much sense for you to come up again, but if you want to stay on the court, then the two breakthrough masters except Zhou Lin and Roy will come to trouble you In addition, no matter who plays the pick-and-roll for you, the one who meets Howard will definitely hit you, and if you move a little, it will be the sixth time, and in this game, the referee is more accurate in catching Howard's foul!"

Van Gundy did not replace Howard, which is also a kind of pressure on the referee.

Once Howard is sent off, the game is basically explained, which is equivalent to the referee manipulating the game.

But he ignored the torment of five fouls for a player who is good at defense, because he felt that he could grab the position or block the opponent on many balls, even that was a defensive instinct.

Now Howard must endure this instinct, at least before the game enters the last 2 minutes, Howard must ensure that he remains on the court, so that the game can continue to play.

Several times Howard felt that he could cover the ball, but when his hand reached halfway, Warcraft faltered.

The only good news is that the feel of the Bobcats has gradually declined. Roy and Zhou Lin are two strong attacking points, and they failed to grasp several good opportunities.

The point difference has also been hovering between 7-9 points. The Magic cannot narrow the point difference, and the Bobcats have not been able to widen the point difference.

In this way, the game entered the last 2 minutes.

And the head coach of the Magic also sent a signal to Howard, asking him to enhance his defensive deterrence.

But this good news lasted only one round. Howard just succeeded in dunking and once again compressed the score to 6 points.

And Yi Jianlian's mid-range jumper over there was violated by Howard, and the referee's whistle rang very rudely.

"Warcraft Howard still committed 6 crimes!"

"This is almost a disaster for the Magic team!"

The monster shook his head helplessly, took off the armguard and walked back.

Strong blocking ability is also a double-edged sword. Many balls are actually wandering between fouls and good shots.

After losing Howard, the Magic had to move the center to the outside as a last resort.

Although Turkoglu hit a three-pointer at the buzzer immediately, the Magic missed all of the next three shots.

The final whistle blew.

The Bobcats won Game 109 of the Eastern Conference Finals 98-11 by 3 points.

In this game, the performance of the Bobcats is still very balanced. Four players scored in double figures. Zhou Lin scored 22 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals. Redmond Felton scored 14 points and 5 assists. He only played 21 minutes and contributed 13 points and 3 rebounds. Emeka Okafor had 15 points and 11 rebounds. Although Yi Jianlian didn't score much, only 8 points, but in the final critical round, he made Warcraft's six offenders leave the field.

On the side of the Magic, although World of Warcraft was trapped in a foul crisis, he still scored a large double-double of 22 points + 17 rebounds and had 4 blocked shots. Apart from him, the best performer was Sharad Lewis. With 19 points and 7 rebounds, Hedo Turkoglu, as usual, had a hard time facing Zhou Lin. This time, he only made 11 of 3 shots, and only made 5 of 1 outside attempts. , scored 11 points and 6 assists.
