MTL - NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 500 Spirited Warcraft

【NBA: No. 1 Forward】【】

After defeating the Thunder, the Knicks also ushered in their first five-game winning streak this season.

So far, the Knicks have really shown the posture of the defending champion.

In the East, the Heat's five-game streak in the West also broke their undefeated golden stature.

In particular, James and Wade have alternate rotations, resulting in their five-game streak of 2 wins and 3 losses, and so far they have achieved a record of 9 wins and 3 losses.

The first time the Big Three of the Heat exchanged fire with the Clippers, known as the "space battleship" in the West, they lost 89:100.

James made 7 of 19 shots and scored 24 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists; Wade made 6 of 17 shots and scored 17 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals. Chris Bosh had 17 points and 11 rebounds.

The Big Three of the Heat scored 58 points together, but the team's overall shooting percentage was only 35.5%!

But this is not the reason for the Heat's loss. The main reason is that the Heat's substitute players have fallen.

In addition to the Big Three, the Heat's role players and substitute players are generally too old. In addition, in the shrinking season, the back-to-back density makes everyone physically and mentally exhausted. As a result, there are no five substitute players in this game. play.

James Jones, Juwan Howard, Dexter Pittman, Terrell Harris...they're all on the injured list.

But the Clippers did not show mercy because of this.

Chris Paul had 27 points, 11 assists and 6 rebounds; Carmelo Anthony had 28 points and 4 rebounds; Blake Griffin had 20 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists.

For the first time, the Four Heroes of the Wind and Dust gathered together in one game.

Especially Carmelo Anthony, meeting James made him very excited. There was no brotherhood in the audience, and he worked extremely **** both ends of the offense and defense. Those who didn't know thought that Carmelo Anthony was playing in the playoffs.

Anthony: He was timid to play against other teams, but when he met his brothers, he punched hard!

However, this "Four Heroes" on-court matchup was also enjoyed by the majority of fans, and some fans even wanted to see the wonderful game between the Heat and the Clippers against the Knicks.

The duel between super teams and super stars has always been the most eye-catching, especially since both stars have their own traffic.

Moreover, whether it is the Knicks, Los Angeles, or Miami, these are all big ball markets. No matter who is playing against whom, they will attract the attention of fans and the media.

However, the most recent match against these two teams will not be until the end of January.

On January 27, there will be a matchup between the Knicks and the Heat.

The Knicks still need to play six games before facing off against the Heat's Big Three.

…

On January 16, this is the last eight games of the Knicks, the last relatively strong opponent: Magic.

After playing the Magic, the Knicks' next opponent will be very easy.

In this turbulent season, if you want to say that the quietest team is the Magic, they basically did not introduce stars, but only tinkered with the bench lineup.

Since the start of the game, it has even been reported that Howard is very dissatisfied with the operation of the team management.

And this is the Magic team, which has a record of 8 wins and 3 losses since the start of the game. It is one game behind the Heat and is currently ranked third in the Eastern Conference.

The reason is because of the chemical reaction in the Magic lineup.

Tonight's Madison Garden is still crowded with people, and the atmosphere of the game is particularly strong.

When the Nets traded away Vince Carter in 2009, Ryan Anderson came to the Magic as an addition.

When Ryan Anderson first came to the Magic, he didn't attract much attention, and he was more like a little transparent in the team.

There's a reason Ryan Anderson is underappreciated, and Stan Van Gundy is a head coach who takes defense very seriously, and it's not an exaggeration to say that defense comes first.

Ryan Anderson's defense is very bad, his rebound protection ability is weak, his help defense is not good, and he is in a defensive colander when he is one-on-one.

So many times, Stan Van Gundy is not optimistic about Ryan Anderson.

Until Brandon Bass was injured last season, the Magic had no suitable players to fill in the fourth position and could only let Ryan Anderson start.

And it was in the first few games that Ryan Anderson and Howard had a chemical reaction.

Although he defends his hips, it has to be admitted that he is a space power forward with excellent shooting ability.

Moreover, he has a fast three-point shooting speed and a high shooting rate. In cooperation with Howard, he can help him attract defenders to the outside line, thereby helping Howard open up space and create singles opportunities.

And with Howard as the defensive gate guarding the basket, Ryan Anderson's poor defense is not so unacceptable to a certain extent.

And this season, the Magic traded Brandon Bass to the Boston Celtics for Glenn Davis and Von Weaver.

At the same time, it strengthened Ryan Anderson's starting position.

Ryan Anderson also seized this opportunity tightly. Since the start of the game, Ryan Anderson has averaged 17.2 points and 7.3 rebounds per game.

Not only that, but recently, the Magic have won a wave of five consecutive victories by relying on the perfect cooperation of Ryan Anderson and Howard.

Unfortunately, the Knicks also had their best record since the start of the season, also winning five consecutive victories.

When the hot New York Knicks face the hot Orlando Magic, who will win in this strong matchup?

This topic has quickly become the focus of the past two days.

Moreover, the Knicks and the Magic belong to the Eastern Conference. Although the two teams do not have any enmity, there is still a lot of friction with each other.

In particular, in the 2010 playoffs, the Knicks stepped on the corpse of the Magic to reach the Eastern Conference Finals. In the semifinals, there was also a lot of friction between Lian Dao and Howard.

And it belongs to the five-game winning streak team. If the Knicks cannot win this game, the morale blow to the team's defending title will be very obvious.

Especially the Knicks had a bad start before, if they lose this game again, the media will definitely make a big fuss.

During the warm-up before the game, Howard was shown on-site.

Howard's smile is very sunny and warm, and he feels like a big boy who loves to laugh.

Two days ago, in the game between the Magic and the Golden State Warriors, Howard had just scored a super-large double-double of 45 points and 23 rebounds. The media hyped Howard.

The team's recent record is also very good, especially the cooperation with Ryan Anderson, which made Howard find the feeling of partnering with Lewis, which dissipated a lot of Howard's emotions about the team not being strong.

Especially recently, Howard discovered that the defending champion Knicks only had two more wins than their Magic.

At the same time, it also made Howard determined to win this game and give the defending champion a good boost~www.novelbuddy.com~ After the warm-up on both sides, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starting lineups of the two teams were also released one after another.

Magic's starting lineup: Jameer Nelson, Jason Richardson, Hedo Turkoglu, Ryan Anderson, Dwight Howard.

At first glance, this lineup looks the same as last season, they just replaced Brandon Bass at the fourth position last season with Ryan Anderson.

But it was this operation that largely released Howard's powerful offense in the paint.

The Knicks still have the regular five tigers: Jrue Holiday, Danny Green, Lian Dao, Amare Stoudemire, DeMarcus Cousins.

With the opening jump ball, Howard jumped high and dialed the ball into the hands of Jameer Nelson in the Magic halfcourt, and the game officially started.

Jameer Nelson dribbled the ball across half court, and played a pick-and-roll with Howard from outside the three-point line. After the split, Howard went straight to the basket.

In fact, Howard can play pick-and-roll, and his size pick-and-roll quality is very good.

It's just that, many times Howard is unwilling to play pick-and-rolls, he is unwilling to do some dirty work, and when he is willing to do all this, his strength is the most terrifying.

For example, in this attack, although the Knicks shrank the defense to the basket in advance, Nelson made a pass after breaking through to Howard who cut to the right side of the basket.

Howard caught the ball and took off directly.

"Peng!"

With a two-handed dunk, Howard slammed the ball into the basket, his body hung on the basket, and the entire basketball hoop was crumbling under the blessing of this force.

This is the powerful upper body strength belonging to the league's number one center!

The Magic took the lead!
