Rebirth of Hayes Cyclone

Chapter 328 [Sweeping Magic! 】

On April 4, the Orlando Magic defeated the Celtics at home and won the crucial "Battle of Tianwang Mountain", doubling their hopes of advancing.

The Bobcats are very happy with this result. In the next round, they can clean up the magic without the main point guard, and happily embrace the revenge of being out of last season.

The Cavaliers didn't let surprises happen in Game 5. The Bucks beat the Bucks 108 to 81 and won the match point.

The game between the Eagles and the Heat decided the outcome, and the Eagles advanced 4-1.No one in the Eagles can guard against Wade, and Rose played well in the first playoffs, but Yao Ming, Josh Smith, Marvin Williams, Joe Johnson, and Jamal Crawford are all strong. Not bad, the Heat couldn't prevent the Eagles' offense.

The game between the Blazers and the Hornets also decided the outcome.The Hornets beat the Blazers 92 to 89 away to advance to the second round with a score of 4 to 1.In this game, Brandon Roy suffered from the flu and was in a sluggish state.The Blazers are still too young. They can become a dark horse in the regular season, but they can't go further in the playoffs if their tactics are well thought out.

The Rockets were also eliminated by the Spurs 1-4.Duncan taught Oden a good lesson. It is still too early for Oden to become emperor.The Rockets' outside scoring ability is only rookie Bayless, who can only attack the inside, and the Spurs can easily find defensive countermeasures.

4月30日。骑士4比2淘汰雄鹿，勒布朗-詹姆斯得到41分8篮板9助攻，不可阻挡。他们将在第二轮对阵老鹰队。

On May 5, the Magic strangled the Celtics away.Bobcats players watched the live broadcast of the game together, in order to find the opponent's weakness while watching the game.

The person who played the best in this game was Dwight Howard. He put a lot of pressure on the Celtics on both ends of the offense and defense. Carter and Turkoglu were also very active on the outside.

However, when defending Pierce, Ray Allen, and Jamison, the Magic also struggled, and the scores of the two sides have always been very close.

If the second round is against the Magic, D'Antoni will decide to attack from the outside.The Magic's back line has obvious weaknesses. Point guard Nelson is injured. Today's starter Anthony Johnson moves slowly. Tyrone Lue has speed and is at a disadvantage in height. Billups and Rondo will definitely beat them.The backup shooting guards Bogans and Redick are also short. Once Carter is off the court, Durant will rule the world.

"Last season, the Magic focused their defense on Chuck. Now Turkoglu must defend Kevin (Durant), whether it is Tony Batty or Howard to defend, Chuck you can pull to the outside attack , It’s not difficult to pass them. Brook (Lopez) starts, your main task is to defend, and the offense only needs to be pulled to the high cover, and Howard is pulled out.” D’Antoni arranged the tactics in advance.

Camby was placed on the bench, his movement speed was slow, and it was difficult to deal with an explosive player like Howard. It can be said that apart from experience, Camby's defense is not much better than Lopez, and Lopez's Scoring ability is much stronger than Camby.D'Antoni is ready to make Lopez a starter.

Compared with the Bobcats, the Magic is at a disadvantage in its own strength. Now that it is short of major generals, it is even less likely to upset the Bobcats.God also intends to give them more tests. In the third quarter, the Celtics played a 17-0 offensive climax amidst the crazy cheers and cheers of the home fans, opening the score.In the fourth quarter, Howard reduced his playing time due to too many fouls. In the end, the Celtics won another game. 3 to 3 equalized the total score.

In the second round of the Western Conference, the Lakers took the lead in beating the Timberwolves 113-97 at home.The Spurs and the Hornets got together. Under the leadership of Paul, the Hornets won 90 to 89 in an away game, winning by one point and winning a victory.

魔术在第七场生死大战中，终于依靠霍华德22分20篮板的大号两双和文斯-卡特36分8篮板6助攻的爆发赢下了比赛。

At this time, the league announced the best coach of the season, the regular season MVP and the best regular season team.

Before the start of the second round, the Bobcats had a lot of good news.Mike - D'Antoni successfully elected the best coach.This greatly increased D'Antoni's confidence.

海耶斯蝉联了常规赛MVP，15.8分10.8篮板10助攻2.1抢断0.8盖帽。他也以全票当选了最佳阵容一队。

The other four players on the first team are center Dwight Howard (Magic), small forward LeBron James (Cavaliers), shooting guard Kobe Bryant (Lakers), and point guard Chris Paul (Hornets).Although the Eagles' record is better than the Magic's, Yao Ming's statistics have declined, and he cannot compare with Howard. This season, he failed to enter the All-NBA first team again.

韦德的数据30.2分4.6篮板7助攻2.2抢断1.4封盖，科比23.6分5篮板6.5助攻1.5抢断0.5封盖。看数据韦德要强的多。不过热火的战绩和湖人差太多，韦德遗憾的被挤出了最佳阵容。

Bryant's scoring is the lowest in recent seasons, but his assists have reached a career high of 6.5. He is more selfless than ever because he has more support.

Best Second Team: Devin Wade (Heat), Brandon Roy (Blazers), Tim Duncan (Spurs), Carmelo Anthony (Nuggets) and Yao Ming (Hawks).

Best Team Three: Tony Parker (Spurs), Kevin Durant (Bobcats), Paul Pierce (Celtics), Pau Gasol (Lakers) and Andrew Bogut (Bucks) .

Both Durant and Bogut were selected to the All-NBA Team for the first time.As soon as the news was announced, Durant took the initiative to ask for a treat.Although he lost to Granger in the competition for the Most Improved Player award, he won the best team selection.Three teams is enough to keep him happy for a while.

In the second round of the Eastern Conference, the Eagles beat the Cavaliers 100 to 95 at home.The Cavaliers James is still very eye-catching, but the Hawks play more team.

On May 5, the Bobcats finally had a game against the Magic at home.

At this time, Bobcats had been resting for 7 days.The Magic only had one day off, so they had no time to study their opponents, so they had to play against the Bobcats.The difficulty can be imagined.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.The Bobcats are at their peak now, and the Magic finally eliminated the Celtics. They just relaxed, and their momentum has reached a low point.

The first match between the two sides was a massacre.Hayes attacked on the outside throughout the game, Brook Lopez also pulled to the outside, and the only person who relied on his teammates to break through to the inside was Gerald Wallace.

Before the game, the Magic focused on studying how to defend Hayes, but they were caught off guard. The four Bobcats were on the outside, and one of the two tall players inside the Magic had to be pulled out anyway.If Howard is not at the basket, the defensive power will be reduced a lot.Veteran Tony Batty was even slower, and no matter who pulled it out, the two couldn't guard Hayes.

One-on-one magic no one can stop Hayes' offense, which has been fully verified last season.Now the Magic can't double-team Hayes.

The Bobcats' pick-and-roll coordination is flexible and versatile.The magic perimeter let Turkoglu defend Hayes.Hayes immediately passed the ball to Durant, allowing him to single Vince Carter with his height.Let Carter defend Hayes, even though Hayes' strength is dominant, he can sit and play inside.However, he still chooses to be handed over to Billups, who is easier to attack Anthony Johnson.

魔术队阵容的弱点太多，这样怎么打的赢？海耶斯根本不需要强攻，半场就带领山猫打垮了魔术。终场128比87，大胜魔术41分。海耶斯7投6中，三分球2投1中，罚球2中2。得到15分12篮板11助攻的三双成绩。杰拉德-华莱士26分11篮板。比卢普斯18分7助攻。山猫共有6人得分上双。

The second game was equally simple. Not to mention the performance of the main players such as Hayes, Wallace, Durant, Billups, and Lopez, it was Rondo, Bargnani, Miller, Weaver, Substitute players such as Azubuike and Gasol also made the Magic overwhelmed.With Howard off the court, the Magic have no center who can resist Gasol's low-post offense.The Bobcats' fringe players played like offensive killers in minutes off the bench.

Veteran Camby has become an outsider in soy sauce.The Bobcats have been the main attack on the court, put the defense in a secondary position, and Camby's playing time has been greatly reduced.

The Magic returned to the home court, and the situation has not changed.The home court doesn't make the Magic's lineup a strongman.Still can only rely on the performance of Carter, Turkoglu, and Howard.Howard was stared at by the Bobcats.The three centers took turns to defend, consuming Howard's physical strength and easily preventing him from entering the paint.As long as you get to the basket, immediately take foul tactics.In the three games, Howard, known for his violent dunks, only sent out two dunks. The Bobcats defended him very successfully.

The Magic lost Game 94 again, 113 to [-].

The goal of the Magic is not to eliminate the Bobcats and enter the Eastern Conference finals, but to win a game and defend their home honor.Last season, they nearly swept the Bobcats, this time the situation is completely reversed.Hayes' performance was as steady as ever.After three years of training, his skills are proficient, his experience has become more and more abundant, and his playing has become more stable.

In the fourth game, the Magic played very hard in the opening stage. 8 to 2 lead.After that, Hayes used Lopez's cover to break through to the inside, causing Howard's foul. After 1 minute, Durant rushed to the basket again, causing Howard's second foul.Howard's end indicates that the Magic's general situation is over.

Howard also entered the first team of the best team, but his evaluation is far worse than Hayes.He didn't play his role as a leader in this series. After being fouled by his opponent, he couldn't make free throws, and he couldn't control the number of fouls he committed.

The Magic struggled for half of the fourth game, and in the third quarter, several singles by Billups finally opened the score.With a score of 107 to 98 at the end, the Bobcats swept the Magic and entered the second round.The revenge of being eliminated last season has been avenged.

Was the Magic's performance in this series very clean? There were no malicious fouls. In the last playoffs, the Magic were attacked by fans all over the world.The Bobcats passed the ball non-stop, and did not fix any one as the core of the offense, so that they could not find the direction of defense.

After the game, Howard sent a blessing to Hayes, wishing the Bobcats a smooth victory.The game between the Eagles and the Cavaliers was 3-1.The Eagles are temporarily leading, and the Bobcats are likely to join the Eagles in the Eastern Conference Finals.In the fourth game, the Cavaliers were reversed by the Eagles by 18 points at home.LeBron James was furious after the game, bombarding some teammates for not being active enough in defense.He was about to be eliminated before he met Hayes, and James was very unwilling.The Cavaliers have no future, and the lineup cannot be compared with the Bobcats.He is also now thinking about a transfer.
