Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 210 Maddie explodes!

"Kobe and Billups, the [-]-point shot is their weakness.

If their [-]-pointers open things up, the Lakers are nearly invincible.

So, wait for McGrady and Armstrong to rest, and Jackson and Maggette will play.

Your goal is to strengthen Billups and Kobe's defense.

Try not to catch the ball for Kobe, and Billups guards against his three-pointer. "

Li Mu arranges the defense of the outside line, and the next step is the defense of the inside line.

A word, is cut.

Pause back.

According to the tactical execution, Bryant couldn't get rid of Maggette, and Jackson didn't let Billups out of sight.

However, for the Lakers' offense, the outside line opened up the situation, and after being targeted, they immediately passed the ball inside.

When O'Neal catches the ball, he is about to goug, turn around, and dunk.

Fortunately, Li Mu pre-judged the Lakers' pre-judgment and asked O'Neal to "shark the shark" on O'Neal and sent him to the free throw line for free throws.

For this reason, the Magic also paid the price.

Let the Lakers expand the point difference to 6 points.

Fortunately, O'Neal finally got off the court to rest, and he played a lot of time.

Then, taking advantage of O'Neal's rest, the Magic broke out inside. Duncan and O'Neal continued to attack the inside and scored, narrowing the point difference.

At the end of the second quarter, the Lakers took a 5-point advantage and entered the locker room to rest.

In the second half, they changed sides.

Li Mu returned to the starting lineup.

McGrady, Jackson, Hill, Duncan, Amici.

The Lakers also started the game.

The game started in the third quarter, and the situation on the court was unremarkable.

Duncan singled out Big Ben and hit two points steadily.

Looking back, Kobe singled out McGrady, attracted the defense, saw O'Neal in an air cut, passed the ball to assist O'Neal into the air, made an alley-oop, and scored with a two-handed slam dunk.

The game entered a tug-of-war, and the point difference fluctuated around 5 points.

Moreover, the Magic did not talk about martial arts. In the 6th minute of the first three quarters, they narrowed the point difference to 1 point by relying on the tactics of "cutting the shark" and "cutting the book".

Of course, Amici also officially graduated with 6 prisoners.

Jermaine O'Neal re-entered the game and faced off with O'Neal.

The Magic attack.

McGrady broke out suddenly, dribbled the ball to the front court, and in front of Billups, he made an unreasonable three-pointer...

Billups threw it, but couldn't reach it.

Swish-!
The Magic lead by 2 points.

And this is just the beginning.

On the defensive end, McGrady took the initiative to mark Kobe.

Kobe's outburst in the second quarter did not frighten McGrady. With a flash of inspiration, he used the snake tactics against Kobe.

Kobe wanted to hit the ball back, pulled the ball up, raised his hand and shot a three-pointer...

Bang-dang-!
Tieke did not disappoint McGrady, and the strike went wide.

The Magic grabbed the rebound and played a quick counterattack.

Billups and Tracy McGrady, very fast, interrupted the Magic's counterattack.

However, positional warfare.

From outside the three-point line, McGrady made another three-point shot...

Swish-!
Accurate hit.

Billups was completely dumbfounded.

"McGrady blows up, the offense doesn't make sense.

The scoring champion of the new division, the performance in the playoffs is actually a bit stretched compared with the regular season.

However, these two three-pointers proved that McGrady is not weak and can fight tough battles. "Mike Breen said with a smile.

"The Lakers attacked, and O'Neal received the ball. His strength advantage was brought into full play. With O'Neal's strength, he couldn't stand it at all.

Bang-!
Bump away, turn around, and with a bang, O'Neill's body hangs from the southeast branch. "

The Magic led by only 3 points.

It's Maddie again.

With a flick of the ball from outside the three-point line, the defensive player turned into Kobe.

Instead of shooting, McGrady started, accelerated, and took a step inside the three-point line.

When Kobe fought and retreated.

McGrady stopped sharply and leaned back, with a bang, he was hit again.

After scoring 8 points in a row, the game was stopped directly.

The Magic took a 5-point lead.

Jackson likes to let players adjust on the floor.

However, McGrady's state was too explosive, he just wanted to interrupt McGrady's state, and did not make any adjustments.

The timeout ends and the game resumes.

Billups took the ball upfield, passed it to Lewis, and cut outside to the corner of the three-point line.

Lewis lobs to O'Neal, Hill assists in the defense, and O'Neal takes the ball out.

Catch the ball, jump up, shoot the [-]-pointer...

"Lewis' [-]-pointer, a third-year guy, has a really good shot.

Swish-!
bingo.

The Lakers clenched the score. "

The point difference was 2 points and the Magic took the lead.

McGrady broke through, attracted the defense inside, and threw the basketball into the sky.

Clang.

Duncan made an alley-oop and blasted the basketball into the basket.

Lakers offense.

O'Neal catches the ball with his back, knocks it open, finds Kobe cutting in, and passes the ball down the middle.

Catch the ball, kick up, and with a bang, it was a one-handed dunk and scored two points.

The two sides have entered a tug-of-war again.

In the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, an accident occurred on the field.

This is what Li Mu didn't realize.

The Magic attack.

McGrady caught the ball and put on an offensive three-threat.

Exploring steps, changing direction, accelerating to break through inside.

The extremely fast first step made Kobe completely out of position, and he used his body to block. Maddie paused, dribbled the ball with his back, and passed Kobe cleanly.

Entering the paint area, Madilla jumped up with the ball, trying to blast the basketball into the basket with one hand.

O'Neal and Big Ben hit the goal with a pair of ghosts, trying to block McGrady's dunk.

In the air, McGrady dodges and avoids the blocks of O'Neal and Daben, and it is about to complete a slam dunk, which has become a classic dunk scene in the finals.

Unexpectedly, Big Ben and O'Neal thought of going together.

O'Neal slammed directly into McGrady's waist, and Big Ben was in the air, pulling McGrady down.

Tracy McGrady was thrown to the ground, dunked, dunked to the rim, and bounced out.

wow~
The referee's whistle sounded.

At the same time, Jackson and O'Neal rushed to the basket.

Jackson pushed Big Ben away with all his strength, and O'Neal pressed his chest against O'Neal, wanting to seek justice for his teammates. The action just now was to disable people.

At this moment, McGrady fell on the floor, covering his waist with his hands, possibly injured.

The scene was a bit chaotic, and it seemed that a big battle was about to break out.

Li Mu rushed to the sidelines, complained to the referee, and demanded severe punishment.

As a result, the referee only gave Da Ben a first-level flagrant foul and was not expelled.

O'Neill just gave a verbal warning.

McGrady was helped up, and it seemed that the injury was not serious. After a few moves, he was able to make free throws.

Swish twice.

McGrady made two free throws.

The Magic widened the point difference to 4 points and regained possession of the ball.

Sideline serve.

Hill assisted Duncan, made an alley-oop, dunked with both hands, and scored a basketball.

The point difference widened to 6 points.

Next, the Lakers attacked.

Under McGrady's defense, Kobe broke through easily, reached the basket, dunked with one hand, and scored two points.

McGrady is like a wooden stake, and his life is so clean.

Afterwards, McGrady, who was in a hot state, became an undercover on the offensive end, making continuous breakthroughs and pulling out shots, without the accuracy just now, and repeatedly hit the iron and missed.

It was also completely broken by Kobe, and he launched a quick counterattack.

In the frontcourt, he used a 180-degree back-up dunk to equalize the difference between the two sides.

Li Mu realized later and replaced McGrady with Maggette.

At this time, there are still more than 20 seconds before the third quarter.

In the final attack of the Magic, the time was pressed to the last 5 seconds, and Hill made a breakthrough layup, but failed to score.

After the first three quarters, the score was 81 to 81, and the two sides played a tie.

Li Mu didn't care about the score.

Because, McGrady followed the team doctor to the locker room for an examination.

As a result, it never came out.
