Chapter 70 Orlando Magic

Yang Ze looked at Dana, Dana smiled slightly and motioned Yang Ze to take a bath first.

"I didn't expect you to win so easily." Korver took Yang Ze's shoulder and squeezed the muscles on his arm with one hand.

"I've said it all, I'm not interested in abusing food, he was the one who found me."

Iguodala looked at Ze Yang and jokingly said, "Well, we all know that it smells so good."

Everyone laughed and walked to the locker room.

Iverson, Webber, and Yi Ge all went to take a shower. After the match against the Wizards, the heads-up match began. Up to now, they still smell of sweat.

Ze Yang took off his jersey, revealing his strong chest and abdominal muscles. Korver stared at him intently, making Ze Yang feel hairy.

"Kyle, are you still going to take a shower?" Ze Yang asked tentatively, not knowing what Korver wanted to do.

"Ah, I'll wait for you." Korver reacted, looked at Yang Ze with a smirk and said.

Yang Ze covered his chest with his hands, looked at Korver, and said, "Kyle, you don't have any special hobbies, I tell you, I won't let you get me."

Korver? ? ?
What do you think?
"Andre said that your physical fitness is not inferior to his. I'm just curious to take a look. Don't think too much, I'm not that kind of person."

Yang Ze nodded and said, "After fighting for so long, Kyle, are you hungry, let me feed you?"

Korver said in surprise: "Yang, do you know how to cook? Last time I went to a Chinese restaurant, the taste was pretty good. Would you like to cook?"

"Well, okay, I'll eat it for you another day."

Yang Ze is a person who refuses to admit defeat, you have seen all my body, can I not take advantage of you?

"Hey, Alan, Yang said he'll feed me next time."

"Andre, can you eat under Yang?"

"Chris, do you know Yang's cooking skills? He said let me eat next, hahaha"

While taking a shower, Iverson and Iguodala leaned forward and backward with laughter, but they couldn't bear to tell Korver what Yangze said.

Korver hummed triumphantly while taking a shower.

locker room.

After Yang Ze changed his clothes, he came back when he saw Korver, and said to him, "Kyle, I've finished washing, and I'll eat for you next time."

"Okay, okay, where are you going?" But after thinking about it, Korver felt that something was wrong. Why did he have to wash the noodles to eat?

"Yang, Ze, stop here!" Korver yelled.

Feeling the "murderous intent" behind me, I slipped away
Yang Ze ran out of the locker room a long time ago, borrowed a car from Iverson, and sent Dana back.

-

Early the next morning, Ze Yang came to the training hall again. After practicing alone for two hours, Iverson, Iguodala, Korver, and Lu Wei came to the court one after another.

This is not a training organized by the team, but an independent training. In the current 76ers team, the training enthusiasm is still very high.

"Yang, why is it so early." After Korver came over, he opened his hand for a three-pointer.

"got used to."

Iverson saw Yang Ze's expression and guessed the general idea. He said: "You can understand after looking at the schedule."

schedule?

The three of Korver really took a look at the schedule. On December 12, which is tomorrow, they will play away against the Orlando Magic. The Magic led by Warcraft Howard will undoubtedly be a very big test for the 9ers inside.

On December 12, the Portland Trail Blazers will play at home. This may be a close battle.

On December 12, they challenged the Boston Celtics away.

It turned out to be the case.

His teammates are aware of the matter between Yang Ze and the Boston Celtics.

"Yang, if you need my help, just say it."

"Yang, do you need me to fight against you?"

Kyle Korver and Iguodala said one after the other.

"Yang, although I'm unstable, I can still pass the ball to you." Louis Williams also showed his affection for Ze Yang for the first time.

"Or, am I here to abuse you? Although I'm not interested in abuse." Today, Iverson is still dressed in a hip-hop style.

"That's a good relationship, thank you all."

Yang Ze is also not polite to them. For now, his biggest problem is dealing with the ball under double-teaming and a corner shooting problem.

Korver and Igo are responsible for defense, and Iverson and Lu Wei are responsible for receiving and passing the ball.

After several attempts, Yang Ze didn't have a good way to break through the blockade of the two. When facing double-teams, he lost his vision when passing the ball and was prone to mistakes.

"First of all you have to be calm, use your feet and your body, try to find space.

Second, once there is space, you must be decisive whether to pass the ball or attack yourself.

You are afraid of what will happen, and you are afraid of making mistakes, so you are hesitant. "

After watching a few balls, Iverson directly pointed out Ze Yang's problem.

In the past, Iverson thought he was a good player, but not a good teacher. Since Yang Ze trained with him, he found that he still has the talent to instruct others.

He can also distinguish when to let Yang Ze find out the problem by himself, and when to tell Yang Ze directly, the promotion will be much faster.

For the double-teaming problem, if Yang Ze is asked to find a solution by himself, after a day of training, Yang Ze may not be able to break through the defense of Yi Ge and Korver.

But pointing out the problem directly can relieve Yang Ze's burden and make him fight more decisively.

In the following training, Iverson gave Yang Ze a few demonstrations. Of course, even in the face of double-teaming, whether Iverson dribbled or split the ball, it was difficult for the two of them to stop him.

Once they are familiar with each other and know where the opponent's defensive center of gravity is, it will be easier for Iverson to deal with it.

Another reason is that Iverson has played in the NBA for more than ten years, and his experience is not comparable to the current Yang Ze.

After a morning of training, Yang Ze got better and better, and his teammates envied his speed of improvement.

In the afternoon training, Korver still taught Yang Ze some long-range shooting experience, including running without the ball to catch the ball, emergency stop shot, chasing three-pointers and so on.

-

On December 12, the 9ers came to Orlando.

"Yang, do you know my relationship with the Magic?" It was the team's starting power forward Chris Webber who spoke.

Yang Ze has some knowledge about the NBA, but not everyone's resume is clear to him. Faced with Weber's question, he shook his head.

"In the 1993 draft, the Magic held the No. [-] pick, and I was the one who selected me." Webber recalled the past.

"At that time, their insider, you know who is there?"

Ze Yang replied: "Shaquille O'Neal."

"That's right, because of O'Neal, they didn't feel the need to add insiders, so they traded me to the Warriors for Penny Anfernee Hardaway."

When it comes to magic in the 90s, people have to think of the talented and enviable Orlando Twins.

In the 94-95 season, he made it to the finals, but unfortunately lost. In the 95-96 season, he reached the Eastern Conference finals. But at that time, Jordan was invincible. Young people will eventually pay the price, and the Gemini was swept out 0-4.

Later, O'Neal left the team for the Lakers, Hardaway suffered serious injuries, and that talented Magic team is a thing of the past.

In the 98 games of the 99-50 shrinking season, the Magic achieved a record of 33 wins and 17 losses in the Eastern Conference, but they met Iverson and were eliminated in the first round.

The Magic seemed to have faded out of people's field of vision like this, until Tracy McGrady, who was sleepy and could kill the Quartet as soon as he opened his eyes, joined, and the Magic gained a new life.

"So, what do you think of magic?" Ze Yang asked Weber.

Webber shook his head with a smile and said: "How can I look at it, it's just an opponent. Although I don't know what will happen if I am in the Magic, but at least I will lose the king's peak career, and can I get to know you in the 76ers team?" It's all unknown."

"I support you to use actions to prove something to some teams, but I don't want you to forget your original intention when playing basketball because of these things, let alone lose your love for basketball."

"There are no underdogs in the NBA, no matter which team, we must take it seriously."

Ze Yang is very grateful to these teammates and coaches. Iverson, Korver, Yi Ge and others use practical actions to help themselves improve. Veteran players like Weber tell Yang Ze some of his feelings so that he can have a more peaceful life. Mentality to face the opponent.

The home arena of the Magic, the Amway Arena is also called the Orlando Arena, the Waterhouse Center Stadium, and the people of Orlando are also very friendly.

In the United States, their cities are very distinctive, and each city has its own story, culture, and feelings.

And in these different cities, countless fans are very passionate about basketball, and you can have the deepest experience when you walk into the arena.

Since the start of this season, Warcraft Howard has risen strongly and has become the most lethal and hottest inside player in the league.

In Yang Ze's impression, after Howard's rise, the Magic's lineup for him is star-studded.

Howard's dominance on the inside is also one of the best in the league. The Magic's restricted area is also a no-fly zone. If anyone refuses to accept it, what awaits you is a big hot pot.

Compared with blocking ability, Howard's rebounding ability seems to be more outstanding. So far this season, he has averaged nearly 13 rebounds per game, including four offensive rebounds.

This terrifying rebounding ability, you must know that the two starting insiders of the 76ers, Webber and Dalembert combined, averaged only 16 per game.

It is precisely because of their strong rebounding ability that the shooters of the Magic team can shoot with confidence. Anyway, with Sparks inside, even if the shot is missed, Sparks may still make a second offensive tip-up.

Look at the current Magic lineup, Sparks, Grant Hill, Turkoglu, Ariza, Jameer Nelson, Ariza, JJ-Redick, Darko Milicic What a disgrace to the Platinum Generation.)
As long as the Magic's lineup feels good, they can play against the Spurs and the Heat.

The starting lineup of the 76ers has not changed, allowing Willie Green to continue to start.

Head coach Cheeks was afraid that Ze Yang would be dissatisfied, so he specifically told Ze Yang that he was watching Willie's performance and asked Ze Yang to be patient.

Yang Ze was also convinced of Cheeks' arrangement, so he specifically explained to him about a rookie's playing, which proved that he actually attached great importance to it.

Yang Ze was not in a hurry, he quietly watched Iverson shuttling through the jungle of giants, waiting for his chance to play.
