Chapter 247
Hido Turkoglu is known as the "Turkish Magician". He has a three-point shooting range and can set up a three-point fort on the outside, which is a headache for defenders.

His supporting pass and three-point shooting are his stunts. He is 208cm tall. In theory, his playing position is in a non-standard position, which is the reason why he can't make it to the starting game.

From the point of view of the head coach, if he plays small forward, Turkoglu's speed is a problem. Compared with his average physical fitness, he suffers from lateral movement and is easily overwhelmed by the opposing small forward's speed. .

If you play a power forward, Turkoglu's height and physical confrontation will be at a disadvantage.

If you only look at the shortcomings, Turkoglu is indeed not suitable for starting. However, his mid-range shot withdrawal ability, passing support ability, and even dribbling breakthrough are very threatening, and he can play as a point forward. Give full play to his strengths.

However, the current head coach of the Magic, Johnny Davis, only uses Turkoglu as a catch-and-shoot shooter.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Turkoglu maintained a good touch and provided offensive fire support on the outside. Howard showed his unparalleled defensive potential inside. Hill played well as a point forward. Under such circumstances, the Magic can indeed compete with the full-fire Suns, and there will be exchanges.

It's just that the head coach of the Magic, Johnny Davis, couldn't knead this lineup into shape, and only regarded it as a transitional lineup.

What he wants to play is still the Spurs' two-tower tactic.

Using Howard as Duncan, playing the power forward position, has not been arranged for the center position that will be played regularly in the future.

In order not to play a center, Garnett directly reported his height low, and he has practiced his own special skill, the iron-blooded big mid-range shot.

In the future, Durant will enter the NBA, has the height to play a center, and is unwilling to play a center.

Duncan is Po Povich thinks he's wasted playing center.

To play the position of center forward, you have to enter the inside line to fight your muscles in offense, and you must be able to resist people in defense. Regardless of whether you play well or not, gaining weight and strengthening confrontation are inevitable prerequisites.

Howard is showing good physical talent, but he is a top pick in high school and has potential, but his immediate combat power is very doubtful.

Facing Stoudemire is like facing an enhanced version of himself. His physical fitness is also excellent. He has a slight upper hand in the defensive end. He moves faster than him and has a good technical awareness. Standing up to block shots, compared to Howard, is still perfect.

On the offensive end, he can pick and roll screens, can shoot mid-range shots, and is very threatening to hit the basket. Howard found himself completely helpless with such an enhanced version of himself.

Nelson is extremely fast and full of impact. However, his mid-range shooting ability is not stable, although he can use his speed to beat Nash and get inside.

However, Stoudemire's turn is not slow, and his feet move very quickly. His impact force attacks the basket, and his offensive efficiency is not high.

Playing a pick-and-roll with Howard, with Howard's mid-range shooting ability, even if he is misplaced against Nash, he probably won't make a shot.

Playing Nash with a back-up, the mobility of the Suns is not a display. How could there be an easy one-on-one opportunity for Howard?
Stevenson has both offensive and defensive skills. However, he is not obedient, and he is a bit independent in offense. As long as he has the ball in his hand, he will not give it out and finish the shot by himself.

With Joe Johnson's ability, it's still easy to deal with Stevenson.

Hill played well as a playmaker. However, after he came back from a serious injury, he played cautiously. He almost always shot from the outside.

In addition to the physical recovery of the injury, the psychological recovery must also be recovered slowly. This kind of invisible injury is the most terrifying.

However, Turkoglu has no tactical status, he is only an outside turret, as long as he is a good shooter.

However, facing Marion, who was defending from the top striker, was enough for him to eat a pot, and Turkoglu gradually became misfired.

However, the Suns, who are looking for touch, are playing their best offensive rhythm. After speeding up, the Suns Wulun is a 7-second running and bombing with lightning and flint, or a diamond tactical play in positional warfare. , played so that the Magic couldn't hold their heads up at all.

Even if the head coach of the Magic called a timeout, rearranged the tactical play, and replaced the other three starters, Francis, Mobley, and Totti Bati, they still couldn't stop the crazy Suns. .

Richardson's three-pointer was deadly and precise, making Hill's footsteps on the defensive end firmly nailed to the left and unable to move.

Joe Johnson has no idea whether he is facing Stevenson or Mobley who is back on the court. He can still use his powerful singles skills to blow up the opponent's defensive players and find Joe Johnson, who feels accurate, like killing Like gods, gods block and kill gods, Buddhas block and kill Buddhas, and the opponent has no temper at all.

The defensive player on the right was also pinned down by Joe Johnson, and he didn't dare to let go of Joe Johnson, who was in such a hot state.

With the containment of the flanks on both sides, pulling space, Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll cooperation, the offensive threat was full, and the Magic's defense was retreating steadily, and it was torn to pieces like paper.

In the positional battle, the Suns' offensive firepower remained unabated. The Suns generals, who played with confidence in the running and bombing, launched an offensive like a tide, defeating the Magic.

However, the Magic also resorted to the double-tower tactic. As a result, the Suns were almost in a 5-on-4 situation as soon as the speed was increased. Tony Batty had no defensive effect at all. During the 7-second offensive run and bombing, he just ran outside the three-point line , The Suns' running and bombing has finished.

With the violent offensive firepower of the Suns erupting, the scores of the two teams were also rapidly approaching. D'Antoni began to rotate at this time, replacing Lin Bai, replacing Joe Johnson, replacing Kaba Kappa, replacing Marion.

Although the Suns have started to rotate, the offensive firepower has not regressed.

Lin Bai had 4 minutes left to play in the second quarter. As soon as he came on the field, he used a beautiful back run to get rid of Mobley's defense. From outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, the ball arrived and the score was received. The ball, without any hesitation, directly drew the bow and set the arrow, opened the hand for a three-point jumper, and shot the three-pointer accurately with a bang.

Afterwards, Nash and Stoudemire took over the offensive firepower of the Suns. Regardless of whether it was a pick-and-roll offense or a star individual duel, they played very efficiently, allowing the Suns' offensive firepower to continue, and the fury remained.

At the end of the second quarter, the Phoenix Suns fought back and beat the Orlando Magic 40-26. At halftime, they not only pulled the scores back to the same starting line, but also overtook their opponents by 2 points.

64 to 62! !
With a strong counterattack, the Suns entered the locker room to rest with the advantage of the leaders.
