The convulsion superstar of basketball

Chapter 357 356. Half-human, half-god and blue devil's gods and demons shine! !

With the confrontation between the substitute players on both sides, the scene took a sharp turn in an instant.

The two sides didn't say it was a battle of iron, but it was basically a war of constipation.

This is really not because the rotations of the Magic and the Celtics are not strong enough. In fact, the rotations of the Celtics and the Magic this season are relatively good.

It's just because the two teams are too cautious, when each other shows their full strength in the team, every score in this game will naturally become more difficult.

Especially the offensive points of the substitute lineup are naturally much less than those of the starting lineup, so this makes the game on the court really ugly.

But at least it can be seen that this is really a basketball game! ! !

As the field played against each other, Rivers and Van Gundy also began to gradually bring the main lineup back to the field.

Throughout the second quarter, the two sides still pressed the rhythm relatively slowly.

Even though Van Gundy really wants to increase his speed on the court, the key is that the Celtics are determined to fight with you, and they have no intention of speeding up at all.

Once the Magic started to speed up, the Celtics immediately suppressed the speed in the next round.

Don't give the Magic a chance to bring rhythm at all.

After all, Rivers knows very well that his team is full of old arms and legs. If it is really a fast break, it will not take three quarters, and the bones of these old guys will have to be tossed.

So it's not so much a chaotic battle with the Magic, it's better to say it's finding a chance in the positional battle.

No matter how you say it, compared to the Magic, the biggest advantage of the Celtics is that they cooperate with each other more tacitly and their positioning is clearer.

In addition, the Celtics' insiders have a natural restraint when facing Howard, so this is the main reason why the Celtics can be on par with the Magic.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and they played very patiently with each other throughout the second quarter.

Even Su Jiu had a classic moment of scoring six points in 1 minute and 36 seconds in the second half of the second quarter.

But the Celtics relied on their overall more tenacious awareness, and finally after halftime, they still played at home with:

43:45

Only two points behind the Magic, ending the contest between the two sides in the first half.

After halftime, the number of fans watching the game on the Internet has increased.

Obviously, the Magic and the Celtics are evenly matched, but they attracted a lot of fans to watch in the middle.

Because the contest between the Celtics and the Magic in this game is too fierce, in the eyes of outside fans, the Celtics are likely to break the Magic's undefeated season in this game.

Even after halftime, the Celtics are on the trailing side, but don't forget, this is the North Shore Garden Arena, which is the home court of the Celtics.

And when the game reaches the second half, as the game time gets shorter and shorter, the Celtics' advantage will become bigger and bigger.

This also means that if the competition between the two sides is still so close in the second half, then the Celtics actually have a very high chance of defeating the Magic in this game.

And as the news spread faster and faster, it attracted a large number of online fans to watch the live broadcast of the game.

And one of the ratings for this game is rising like it's taking off.

I have to say that although the process of this game is indeed a bit ugly, it still can't stop the enthusiasm of the fans to watch this game.

Apart from other things, the Magic this season is really too strong, and all fans want to know when the Magic will be able to get their first defeat of the season.

Therefore, any game where the Magic have a chance to lose, I am afraid that the stadium will be full in the future, and the ratings will continue to rise.

Throughout the first half, the Magic themselves did not play very well, because when facing the Celtics, the Magic did suffer a lot of suppression.

The biggest suppression is that Howard cannot get an effective personal outbreak at this point.

In addition, although Su Jiu has a lot of scoring methods when facing Rondo, after all, Su Jiu's personal offense is very comprehensive.

Whether it is a sudden or an outside shot, they all have excellent finishing efficiency.

But I have to mention that Rondo's defensive ability is indeed relatively good. At least when Su Jiu faced Rondo's offensive pressure, it was far more difficult than when facing other defensive players.

So throughout the first half, the Magic have not been able to quickly widen the point difference.

Although the average age of this Celtic team is a bit too old, but the cooperation between the Celtics is very good.

It is no exaggeration to say that this Celtic team is probably the biggest trouble the Magic have encountered since the start of the new season.

After returning from the second half, the two sides changed sides to fight again. When facing the Celtics, Howard's offensive efficiency was far below his season average.

This point has been confirmed in last year's playoffs.

Even though Howard has slightly improved this season compared to last season, the defensive ability of Perkins and Garnett in the interior has caused a lot of trouble for Howard.

Under such circumstances, if the Magic wanted to break the deadlock, Su Jiu and Carter undoubtedly became the most important X factors.

After all, Iverson's age is already here, and his breakthrough speed has become slower and slower.

Facing the Celtics, which is mainly based on inside defense, Iverson would have been suppressed on the offensive end.

So in this case, Su Jiu, who has excellent shooting ability, and Carter, who is pentathlon, are undoubtedly the most suitable people to break the deadlock.

As soon as he came back from the second half, Van Gundy obviously arranged for Su Jiu and Carter to increase the proportion of shots on the offensive end.

Among them, the person who defended Carter in this game was Paul Pierce. Although Pierce's ability on the offensive end is relatively good, his defensive ability is not the top in the league.

The most important thing is that when he puts most of his energy into the offensive end, it will be difficult for Pierce to use his best to kill Carter when facing Carter on the defensive end.

In the second half, fans can clearly see that Carter's sense of participation in the offensive end has completely improved qualitatively.

After all, after the start of the new season, Carter's average number of shots per game has dropped to 11.3 times.

This data has dropped by as much as six times compared to when he was with the Nets last season.

With the passage of time in the new season, the fans seem to have gotten used to Carter's low sense of participation on the offensive end.

Or his style of play is more biased towards team selflessness, basically without that kind of heroic individual singles.

But today, facing the Celtics, when the situation between the two sides gradually reached a stalemate, Carter frequently played singles against Pierce after returning from the second half.

And hit consecutive mid-range fadeaway jumpers, helping the Magic expand their lead bit by bit.

It was only at this time that people seemed to realize, "That's right, this guy is Carter, he is a Canadian flying man! I almost forgot about Carter's personal strength!!"

Because Carter is too low-key in the new season, and his shot percentage has also dropped greatly in the Magic, this obviously makes many fans forget Carter's personal strength.

Forget that Carter was an All-Star player who averaged 20 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists last season.

It wasn't until Carter and Pierce completed mutual explosions on both ends of the offense and defense in the third quarter that it aroused people's personal impression of the "flying man" Carter.

It can be said that when there are too many stars in a team, this is obviously an unsolvable problem.

In this process, someone will inevitably sacrifice their own team status in order to make the team go as far as possible.

And Carter, as a very selfless player who played very selflessly when he first entered the league, obviously accepted the switch between roles silently.

Even in this process, he also had some unhappy places, but as the Magic team's record got better and better, Carter was perfectly integrated into this big family.

But it wasn't until today's second half of the game that people discovered that Carter's strength did not decline after joining the Magic.

Instead, he took the initiative to sacrifice his offensive shot ratio for the team to get better and better.

Obviously, in the personal exchange with Pierce, Carter made a perfect statement to his fans.

"It's not that I have entered the downhill stage of my career, it's just because of winning and statistics, I chose the former, that's all..."

Throughout the third quarter, the Magic was more like an offensive performance by Su Jiu and Carter.

Of course, Su Jiu is also a person who is very knowledgeable about current affairs. When Carter's touch gradually became hot, Su Jiu was naturally willing to give Carter more possessions.

Help him to start playing to the fullest this night, to vent his depression since entering the new season.

Finally, after the end of the third quarter, with Vince Carter's outstanding performance in the third quarter, the Magic team:

71:64

Leading the Celtics by 7 points, ended the first three quarters of the contest between the two sides.

在第三节里，卡特单节就8投5中，其中三分线外1中1，罚球2中2，面对着皮尔斯单节就砍下了13分1篮板以及2次助攻的数据。

With Vince Carter's outstanding performance, the Magic extended their lead to 7 points after the third quarter.

And 7 points is also the Magic's biggest lead in this game.

Faced with Vince Carter's sudden runaway in the third quarter, this obviously surprised many fans.

Especially for those fans who really want to see the Magic lose, this is obviously a bolt from the blue news.

Even before this game, many fans thought it would be difficult for the Celtics to beat the Magic.

But I believe that most people did not expect that the person who really helped the Magic open the score in this game was not Howard, not Su Jiu, not Iverson, and not Lewis.

On the contrary, it is Vince Carter who has been a little out of tune with the team since the start of the new season, running in and not reaching an optimal state.

After the start of the new season, people have forgotten that Carter is an All-Star player.

Even when Carter's performance on the court was poor and far from meeting the expectations of the fans, many fans began to yell at Carter.

It is really inappropriate to think that Carter held such a high contract but only contributed such a statistic in the end.

After all, not everyone would understand the fact that the three monks had no water to drink.

In order to be able to perfectly integrate into the team, Carter has sacrificed some of the price that not everyone can see.

At least after this battle, although it cannot be said that the running-in between Carter and the Magic has entered a new stage.

But at least Carter proved to people that when the team needs him, he can stand up and become the man who can carry the banner of offense! !

After returning from the fourth quarter, the Celtics naturally did not give up. Rivers also greatly reduced the rest time of the main players, preparing for the last counterattack in the fourth quarter.

Stan Van Gundy also didn't dare to be careless seeing Rivers' substitutions and adjustments. After the Celtics' main players began to return, Van Gundy also gradually brought the main players to the field, planning to conduct the final round of the decisive battle between the two sides.

As the two sides played against each other in the fourth quarter, although the Celtics were very tenacious and still played at home, the Magic played very steadily at the last moment.

Whenever the Celtics make a difference on the offensive end, both Su Jiu and Carter will be able to respond immediately.

Timely extinguish the Celtics' counterattack momentum, and resolutely do not give the Celtics any chance to comeback.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and as the time on the court became less and less, the chances of the Celtics coming back became more and more slim.

Because during this time, the Magic have been controlling the score very well, keeping the gap between the two sides at more than 5 points.

This is a score that can give the Celtics both hope and despair.

Finally, after the end of the game, the Magic team in the away game succeeded with:

96:90

They defeated the Celtics by 6 points. While winning the first match between the two sides this season, they also extended the winning streak to 13 games and continued to maintain their unbeaten season! ! !

And at the moment when the game officially ended, this was undoubtedly a very big disaster for fans who didn't like the Magic.

Because before the start of the game, the Celtics gave these people great hope. After the start of the game, to be precise, in the first half, the Celtics still maintained the momentum of being able to beat the Magic.

But after returning in the second half, the Celtics fell at the feet of the Magic. This kind of ups and downs undoubtedly made the Magic's black fans feel unacceptable.

It also made many people worry about whether there is any team in the new season that can give the Magic their first defeat of the season! !

As the three teams of the Lakers, Cavaliers and Celtics lost to the Magic one after another.

Which other team in the league can compete with the Magic has undoubtedly become the most intensely discussed issue at the moment.

In the whole game, Howard's performance was indeed a bit sluggish. When facing the inside defense of Perkins and Garnett, Howard only contributed 11 points, 10 rebounds and 1 block in the whole game.

Although this data seems to be pretty good at first glance, you must know that Howard is a popular star in the league this season.

And it is also the inside core of the Magic. In this case, this data is obviously a bit unreasonable.

However, if compared with Howard last season, Howard in the new season has indeed made some progress.

At least it is slightly better than when they faced the Celtics in the playoffs last year.

In addition to Howard, the Magic can beat the Celtics in this game, so Su Jiu and Carter are undoubtedly the biggest contributors to this game.

其中，苏久全场比赛一共是登场了38分钟，个人在进攻端19投10中，三分线外6中2，罚球4中4，还算是比较稳定的贡献出了26分7篮板8助攻以及2次抢断的数据。

In the new season, Su Jiu's personal contribution has become more and more stable. Even when facing a defensive master like Rondo, he still played a relatively efficient performance.

In addition, as another contributor to the team's win in this game, Vince Carter's performance is also very strong.

At least in this game, Carter played the best battle since the new season.

全场比赛，卡特一共是登场了37分钟，个人在进攻端18投11中，其中三分线外4中2，罚球8中7，十分高效的砍下了31分5篮板以及6次助攻的数据。

The 31 points in a single game also set a new high for Vince Carter in the new season.

And when the team scored only 96 points, Carter and Su Jiu jointly contributed 57 points, nearly 2/3 of the team's points.

From here, it is not difficult to see how powerful the offensive firepower of Su Jiu and Carter is in this game.

Again, this is why the Magic are so strong in the new season, because you never know which player will explode in the next game.

And just when you think that the Magic's offensive firepower can be limited, the existence of the Magic's own X factor still makes people feel that there is nowhere to start.

Although the current Magic team is not truly invincible in the league, because the team still has many hidden defects.

But as Su Jiu's offense becomes more and more stable in the new season, Howard's defensive awareness is getting higher and higher, and Carter's integration with the team is getting better and better.

When these things all come together, then the Magic naturally seem like a solid block.

Unless there is a problem within this iron plate, the Magic can fight against all difficulties from the outside world! !

　Ask for two monthly tickets! !
