Chapter Three Hundred and Seventeen It's Easy to Hide From the Public, but It's Hard to Guard Against the Dark!

December 4, Orlando, Amway Arena.

The Magic are currently ranked fourth in the Eastern Conference. Before the game, Lin Yi took a photo with Carter. Among the four shooting guards, Iverson has retired, McGrady is no longer in the Pistons, and Kobe is still playing... .. All in all, the future is still strong, only Carter is left.

The Magic is still a strong team in the Eastern Conference this season, but it is no longer a championship-level team. Lin Yi remembers that the Magic will trade in the middle of this season. If history remains unchanged, Carter will be used by the Magic to trade Richardson , In addition, the Magic will also sign Arenas for reinforcement.

But in fact, Lin Yi knew that it was Howard's offense that caused the Magic to fail to break through the upper limit.

When it comes to the point of the needle, you can't count on Howard's discus-throwing offense, which is too inefficient.

And with the decline of Nelson, Lewis, Turkoglu and others, it's time for the Magic to rebuild.

Lin Yi really didn't understand the management of the Magic. They signed Lewis with a contract premium of over 100 million. This was the root cause of the Magic's inability to strengthen during this period. Among the thin and fat people, the fat ones were abandoned, and some kind of voting was set up to stimulate the fat people...

The management of this team, no matter who is changed, will not live normally.

...

"Today the Knicks arranged for Billups to start, what does Director Zhang think of the Knicks' deal?" said Yu Jiajie on CCTV.

"Billups has a big heart, and the Knicks should be heading for the championship with this deal." Zhang Reasonable said.

On the court, the starting five of both sides tonight were also given out.

For the Knicks: Tyson Chandler, Lin Yi, Gallinari, Wilson Chandler, Billups.

Magic here: Howard, Turkoglu, Lewis, Carter, Nelson.

Lin Yi and Howard started the game with a jump ball. Since Lin Yi switched to power forward in the new season, Howard liked Lin Yi much more. He even chatted with Lin Yi about the slam dunk contest before the game.

Lin Yi felt that Howard was just a young boy, and he really wanted to tell Howard not to be too happy, because with the start of the first round of voting for the Los Angeles All-Star Game, Lin Yi knew that Chinese fans would definitely vote for him. O'Neill throws into the starting lineup.

"Warcraft" is too naive and simple.

Lin Yi lost to Howard in the jump ball, and the referee threw another height he didn't like. The Magic opened the first attack. Nelson and Howard played a pick and roll, and Billups went around the block early. After continuous injuries, Nelson has no The speed at the peak is too high, and the little chubby man can't squeeze Billups away. In desperation, Nelson chooses to hang the ball to Howard.

As a result, this pass failed to jump over Tyson Chandler's long arm. Tyson Chandler is also one of the centers that Howard doesn't like to match up. He and Tyson Chandler played against Tyson Chandler 39 times in his career. He could only score 15 points and 12.1 rebounds. With his strength, he can occasionally hit back, but the boxing champion always makes him very uncomfortable.

The Knicks didn't make a fast break. Whether it's Van Gundy or Van Gundy, both Van Gundy likes to think about defense. This Magic's defense is good, which is the foundation for them to gain a foothold in the regular season.

Lin Yi came out to play a pick-and-roll with Billups, and Nelson hit his arms full. Lewis was in charge of man-marking Lin Yi. The Magic failed to switch defenses in time, and Billups opened his hand and shot a cold arrow.

It's easy to hide from the open gun (sao), but it's hard to guard against the hidden arrow (cheap)!

Swish——!

The Knicks lead the Magic 3-0 away.

"Billups' basket is really handy," Yu Jia said.

"If you want me to say that it is Lin Yi who blocks people well, look how easy Billups is shooting." Zhang Reasonable said.

It was really easy. On the court, Billups and Lin Yi clapped hands to celebrate.

Looking back, the Magic attacked, Howard asked for the ball in the low post, and Carter lobbed the ball to Howard. "Warcraft" did not squeeze Tyson Chandler in the first step, and turned to the left in the second step to throw a discus. , Lin Yi on the side couldn't bear to watch Howard's anxious footsteps.

But don't tell me, Howard threw the ball in!

Off the court, O'Neal couldn't help covering his face and laughing. He had a good relationship with Howard and taught Howard some offensive skills, but Howard just couldn't learn it.

Thinking of Lin Yi's dreamy footsteps, O'Neill felt that Howard was hopeless.

We must know that the four major centers do not only rely on defense to rule the penalty area, which hand does not have a unique skill?

When the Knicks attacked, Lin Yi showed Howard. After Billups divided the offensive sector, Lin Yi singled out Lewis. When he defended, Lin Yi dodged in the air, and his backhand was a snap!

Bang--!

5 to 2, O'Neal on the sidelines also stood up and applauded Lin Yi, what the hell is an offense!

Who taught him that mentally handicapped resistance to the basket?

Fortunately, Ewing has already run away, otherwise Ewing would have to take the blame again.

There is no love for the gorilla!

The Magic team attacked, pulled away and continued to play low post tactics for Howard. This time the boxing champion was in place. One step, two steps, and Warcraft's skateboard shoes seemed to be short steps. The referee couldn't stand it anymore and directly called Howard for walking .

Warcraft looked aggrieved and wanted to ask the referee to protest.

"Tsk! What a pity for his explosive talent." Lin Yi shook his head helplessly.

One thing to say, Howard did have his own defensive system, but it was useless. For the Knicks' attack, Lin Yi told Howard how to walk correctly, and he showed "Warcraft" what it means to "steal a step" layup.

Even the referees didn't react to Lin Yi's smooth steps.

He couldn't do a six-step layup, but Lin Yi still knew the black technology of a four-step layup. As long as his movements were consistent, NBA referees wouldn't blow it off.

This is what Lin Yi learned from Harden during his summer special training. Harden likes this kind of stealth layup very much.

As long as the rules allow it, it's a good shot.

Howard protested to the referee angrily, why he doesn't blow when he walks, but I blow when I walk?

Referee: Huh? He walked?

Howard pointed to the replay on the big screen at the scene, but when will the referee pay attention to him?

"Lin Yi got the fourth point tonight, and I feel that the arrival of Billups has completely liberated him." Yu Jia commented.

"It's true, Billups knows how to open up space for Lin Yi too." Zhang Reasonable said.

The Magic fans in the Amway Arena were a little bored. During this period, the Magic’s three-pointers were pretty good to shoot, but today’s "Lin Tai" double wall doesn’t need teammates to defend at all. Even Lin Yi To defend Howard, his long arms can also interfere with Howard's offense.

For the Knicks on the perimeter, Gallinari's defense is a little weaker, but tonight he is facing Lewis who is a spot-up shooter. Stan Van Gundy has a headache. If he continues to play like this, he feels that it will take half the game...

On the court, Nelson was hesitant to continue singles for Howard. As a result, Billups made a spiritual move and then flicked it. Wilson Chandler, who was about to get off, ran all the way with the ball and staged a tomahawk-style dunk.

9 to 2!

Stan Van Gundy made the time-out gesture.

Less than two minutes into the game, the Knicks stopped the Magic away.
