NBA: No. 1 Forward

Popular recommendation:

Before, Millsap defended against Howard and gained a certain advantage, which made him feel a little swollen.

Howard turned around and took off quickly. At the moment Millsap dunked, Howard's big hand had already arrived, a solid block!

The basketball bounced off the backboard and out.

After Vince Carter grabbed the rebound, he went straight to the fast break!

Wilson Chandler didn't have much preparation for the ball, and was dribbled directly behind Vince Carter and passed it.

Vince Carter made an easy dunk in the counterattack!

20:13.

After the Magic returned to the court, they launched a frenzied pursuit of points!

Howard looked contemptuously in his eyes, and then looked at Millsap, as if declaring his sovereign status under the basket!

Before the start of the game, Howard ignored everyone in the Knicks except Lian Dao.

In the opening game, Millsap was briefly restricted, more because he didn't react. When Howard adapted to Millsap's defense, his fangs really showed at this time.

"Paul, use your skills around the basket and shake him up. It will be easier to draw fouls and score points!" Lian Dao said to Millsap.

Millsap nodded, he was indeed careless just now.

Sure enough, how can a player who can be called the top insider in the league be so easily restrained by himself.

The Knicks continue to attack!

Holiday patiently organized and passed the ball from the outside, and now the game has really entered the tactical game between the two sides.

Lian Dao got the ball near the free throw line with Rashad Lewis on his back. Lewis is most criticized for his defense. The dignified Mr. Yi Yi, the defense is not even as good as David Lee.

Lian Dao hit Lewis as easily as hitting a child.

Lian Dao sat back with the ball and pushed forward. Lewis couldn't resist Lian Dao's force and was crushed by Lian Dao's strength.

Although Lewis wanted to step forward to block the shot, his body couldn't jump up at all.

He could only watch helplessly as the basketball was pulled out of Lian Dao's hands, and then it drew a beautiful arc and fell directly into the basket!

"brush!"

22:13!

"The Knicks started aggressively. So far, the Knicks have scored 22 points, of which Sickle has accounted for 19 points. The first quarter is not over yet, and Sickle has already scored 19 points. Could it be that this game is Sickle? Will it still kill the Quartet like it did in the first round of the playoffs?"

"If the Magic don't figure out a way to limit Lian Dao, then they will be in big trouble!" Jeff Van Gundy said.

"However, if the Knicks just rely on sickle to score alone, they will also be in trouble." Mike Breen added.

Don't look at D'Antoni leading by 9 points off the court, but there is no happy expression on his face.

If other players can't stand up to help Lian Dao share the pressure, then in the second half, Lian Dao's physical energy consumption will be too large, and his efficiency on both offensive and defensive ends will inevitably decline.

Lost three of the four games against the Magic in the regular season because Lian Dao's physical energy was exhausted and his efficiency dropped. At this time, no one else stood up to help Lian Dao share the offensive pressure, so he was defeated by the Magic in the fourth quarter. The team took away the game in one wave!

The Magic attack.

Howard set the screen for Jameer Nelson, and after the pick-and-roll, Howard quickly cut inside to the basket, and Nelson made a quick pass.

At this time, Millsap was already somewhat unable to guard Howard, and David Lee double-teamed in time.

Howard immediately passed the ball to Lewis.

Lewis attracted Lian Dao's supplementary defense, and then distributed the ball to Matt Barnes who ran outside the three-point line on the right.

Matt Barnes made a three-pointer directly against Holiday.

"Shua!"

22:16!

In the following, the Magic's one-star four-shot lineup was completely opened.

The score was also caught up by the Magic a little bit, but the good news is that other Knicks players took advantage of Lian Dao's involvement to open up their touch and start scoring.

With 1 minute and 53 seconds left in the first quarter, the two sides began to make substitutions.

At this time the score also came to 30:30!

Before the Magic made a substitution, Lewis tied the score with a three-pointer from the outside!

The Magic replaced Vince Carter. Due to physical reasons, Vince Carter's average playing time this season is only 30.8 points, which can be said to be the lowest in his current career.

The Magic replaced Redick here, and also replaced Jameer Nelson with White Chocolate Jason Williams.

For the Knicks, Wilson Chandler was replaced by Larry Hughes. Larry Hughes was almost traded due to injuries in the middle of the season, but Lian Dao blocked the deal.

The Knicks need Larry Hughes to provide defensive and offensive firepower for the bench in the playoffs. Moreover, if the Knicks want to go further, the team must have a veteran with playoff experience. Larry Hughes is the most suitable that!

In order to take care of Lian Dao's emotions, the management kept him.

Larry Hughes is also very grateful for Lian Dao's help. After returning from injury late in the season, Larry Hughes has always used his experience and defense to help the team move forward.

David Lee was also replaced, replaced by Gallinari, Gallinari topped the third position, Lian Dao topped the fourth position, and defended the fifth position.

The Magic did not replace Howard, and Stan Van Gundy actually wanted to replace Howard. They fought the Heat in six games in the first round, and they were exhausted.

However, seeing Lian Dao on the court, Stan Van Gundy worried that without Howard, it is very likely that the Knicks would have opened the score in just over a minute.

The Knicks did not replace Lian Dao because the first round ended and they rested for nearly a week. Physically, Lian Dao has an advantage!

Not only Lian Dao, but the entire Knicks have certain advantages!

Knicks attack.

Chris Duhon is not a speedy point guard, but he has a solid dribble and solid defense!

After halftime, he called the ball to Lian Dao.

Gallinari provided cover for Lian Dao in the high position.

Lian Dao misplaced singles against Lewis.

He rushed in and carried Lewis directly for three steps.

Seeing that Lian Dao was about to dunk at the basket, Howard stepped up to defend.

Lian Dao tossed the ball behind his head.

Howard, who was focusing on Lian Dao's defense, didn't notice Millsap coming around at all.

"Waterfake!" Howard cursed secretly.

Millsap jumped high, grabbed Lian Dao's pass with one hand, and smashed it into the basket!

"Roar!

"

Millsap waved his arms and roared angrily.

32:30!

"Beautiful pass, Lian Dao is like a 360° scanner. He can clearly know the position of his teammates and make reasonable judgments in time!" Mr. Zhang Lili also shouted in the CCTV live broadcast room at this time.

Millsap also bumped shoulders with Lian Dao to celebrate at this time!

The Magic attack.

White Chocolate's pass made a mistake. Originally, Redick's normal running position was not a problem~www.mtlnovel.com~ But he was delayed by Gallinari who was helping to defend.

So, it was directly intercepted by Larry Hughes, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.

Lian Dao quickly made a fast break, cut to the basket and took off directly. At this time, Larry Hughes' pass was also given.

Mouth relay!

Dunk!

34:30!

The Magic attack.

Redick, who shot from the outside, missed, and the rebound was grabbed by Lian Dao who cut to the inside.

After landing, he made a direct long pass to Chris Duhon, who was coming down quickly. Chris Duhon relied on white chocolate to score an easy layup.

36:30!

…

After switching to the rotation lineup, the Knicks took the lead in opening up the situation, especially taking advantage of the unstable foothold of the Magic's outside players, they scored consecutively!

The first quarter of the game ended quickly, and Lian Dao finally used a three-pointer at the buzzer to expand the score advantage to 7 points in one fell swoop.

39:32!

The Magic team finally tied the score, and was directly pulled away by the Knicks with a 9:2 wave!

Stan Van Gundy was very speechless on the sidelines. Is the gap between the rotations of the two sides so big?

In fact, the offensive strength of the rotation of the two teams is comparable. The only difference is in the defense. Whether it is Chris Duhon or Larry Hughes, their defensive strength is stronger than that of White Chocolate and Redick. .

Originally, Stan Van Gundy put this lineup to play the strength of Howard inside.

But unexpectedly, Lian Dao switched to the fifth position and defended Howard himself, which made Howard never have a chance.

And their outside line was defenseless by the Knicks, and then a wave of offense came down. In less than two minutes, the Knicks expanded the score to 7 points again.
