The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 110 110. Gradually exert strength

With this substitution in the dead ball stage, the two sides also brought most of the main players back to the court.

Although this game is an unremarkable regular season for the two teams, both the Magic and the Spurs have a very strong desire to win this game.

The goal of the Spurs is very obvious. The Magic currently ranks first in the league. If they can beat the Magic at home, it will be a qualitative leap for the morale of the Spurs.

The Magic team's idea is even simpler. Although the Magic team is currently number one in the league, the gap with the teams behind them is not too outrageous.

Coupled with the strong teams in the league, it will be the perfect whetstone for any team that wants to hit the championship.

Even if a team has a record of 50 wins in a season, if all the wins are from teams outside the playoffs and all losses are to strong teams in the league, then this team will definitely show a one-sided situation in the evaluation of the outside world, not to mention hitting the championship.

Therefore, the strong dialogue in the league won not only a simple game, but also a psychological incentive for the players.

After the entire first quarter of the fight, the players on both sides gradually began to know the basics on the court, and they also began to adapt to the habits of their opponents on both ends of the offense and defense.

Facing Tony Parker the next time, although Su Jiu still struggled on the defensive end, because Parker's start speed after using the pick-and-roll was too fast.

Even though Su Jiu's thinking on the defensive end has completely caught up, his physical speed is indeed a disadvantage that cannot be changed.

But the so-called nothing is absolute, although Su Jiu can't keep up with Parker's movement speed, but after such a long period of matchup, coupled with some understanding of Tony Parker in his previous life, Su Jiu has also researched a way to defend against Parker.

Most of Parker's starts are initiated on the right side, and his left-handed breakthrough is not very good.

Therefore, when Su Jiu is defending Parker, he will release him about a step and a half away, and stand on his right side. In this way, it will be difficult for Parker to pass Su Jiu on the right side even if he wants to start instantly.

And Parker, who started on the left-hand end, will eventually be transferred back to the right on the offensive end to complete the offense.

Because although Parker can dribble with his left hand, his left-handed throw is indeed very unspectacular.

And the main offensive method of Tony Parker in this period is to break through the layup after playing with the defensive players, and to throw mid-range riding throws.

The outside three-pointer can be said to be a major weakness of Tony Parker at this time, so Su Jiu will try to release him from a longer distance, so as to ensure that he can respond as much as possible when Tony Parker breaks through.

When Su Jiu has basically mastered the defensive tricks of defending Tony Parker, Tony Parker's offensive efficiency has also declined visible to the naked eye.

At least in the first quarter, the kind of god-blocking and killing-god temperament has completely disappeared.

After returning from the entire second quarter, Lewis and Howard on the Magic's side began to take over more possessions.

The two didn't make too many personal attacks in the first quarter, and they also got a long period of rest off the court before adding it, so when they return to the court at this time, the two can be said to be very energetic.

Compared with the multi-point flowering of the Magic, the Spurs' offense fell off a cliff after returning from the second quarter.

When Tony Parker can't drag the Spurs to open the situation on the offensive end, then the Spurs have to hand over the ball more to Duncan in positional battles.

Because whether it is Mason on the outside or Bonner on the inside, these two are proper off-ball shooters.

However, Tim Duncan, who is currently in the fifth position, has no advantage at all when facing Howard.

In addition to being able to make mid-range shots from a farther position, if you want to single-play Howard one-on-one within the three-point line, then the difficulty is completely conceivable.

After all, there is only one person named Yao Ming in the NBA.

While having that kind of height, he also has a soft touch. Except for Yao Ming, there were not many such big players in the entire NBA at that time.

As the Spurs began to fault on the offensive end, they also watched the Magic play a 7:0 climax.

Seeing that the situation on the field turned unfavorable in an instant, the head coach of the Spurs, Popovich, decisively called a timeout, hoping to interrupt the momentum of the Magic.

However, the generals of the Magic team, who were already getting high in their hearts, showed no mercy after returning from the timeout.

Facing the old-timer Michael Finley of the Spurs, Lewis was full of firepower on the offensive end, and he didn't mean to respect the old and love the young at all.

Even facing this veteran player whose legs and feet could no longer keep up, Lewis wanted to fight even more brutally...

And Howard, who had been suppressed for a long time throughout the first quarter, also beat Duncan in the low post many times after returning in the second quarter.

Every collision between these two people attracted crazy shouts from the home fans, but Tim Duncan obviously suffered a lot from the low position in the pure physical collision.

Because Duncan was able to play all seasons in college and be elected as the No. [-] pick because of his excellent basic skills.

As a power forward, Duncan is not only very versatile on the offensive end, but also amazing on the defensive end.

But this does not mean that his physical fitness can be compared with Dwight Howard.

You know, Howard, who was still a high school student at the time, was able to beat the NCAA Finals MVP Okafor to be the No. [-] pick because he completely showed a heaven-defying performance in the physical test data at the time.

In the 3/4 sprint of the audience, he beat all the inside rookies of the same session, and also ranked first in the entire history.

In the potential evaluation, there was only a rough technique to be refined at that time, and there were no shortcomings other than that.

At that time, Howard's physical test data was once sealed for a long time.

Until later in the 2007 NBA draft, a rookie named Greg Oden was born, and with a weight of 285 pounds, he suddenly broke a number of physical test records previously held by Howard.

The birth of Oden can be said to have directly shocked all scouts in the NBA at the time.

It's just a pity that even such a genius left only one sentence for ridicule in the end: "Oden is not a parallel importer!!"

As the Magic team gradually exerted their strength after coming up, the Spurs could only be in a state of passive parry, completely without the chic and comfortable posture in the first quarter.

Until the end of halftime, the Magic team in the away game also successfully rewritten the score as follows:

51:44

With a seven-point lead, the first half contest between the two sides ended.
