Standing pretty old

Chapter 518 If there are sparks, how can there be bulls?

At the beginning of the second quarter, the two teams sent substitutes to the field, and the Eagles suddenly accelerated.

Dragic and Birdman Anderson made a pick-and-roll and went straight to the inside. The Polish hammer Gortat misplaced to defend the claw machine. The claw machine accelerated, reached the inside line, and then threw the ball high.

Gortat watched the ball go over his head, then jumped high from the birdman who was inserted in the back, and a powerful double-armed basket, ending the battle.

The veteran Anthony Johnson, who was still playing for the Eagles last season, is getting older. On the offensive end, he was judged by Jon Jonson. He made a beautiful tackle and blocked the ball.

Jiong Jisen immediately dribbled the ball across the half court, and without waiting for anyone to be in place, he rushed to shoot a three-pointer.

"boom!"

Hard work!
It doesn't matter, the basketball bounced very far, and it just fell into the hands of Dragic who was running. Without any hesitation, the claw machine sent the ball to Jon Jonsen again. The latter did not hesitate, and raised his hand again for a long shot. Hit!

On the offensive end of the Magic, Gortat helped Courtney Lee block from a high position. The latter got a shot and also made a quick shot. Unfortunately, the backcourt rebound was also firmly protected by Birdman.

Anderson passed to the claw machine, and the claw machine immediately dribbled the ball and made a surprise pass. Before halftime, he sent a through pass, and the ball reached the unguarded Steve Novak.

Novak raised the knife and scored another three-pointer neatly. This goal finally stopped the Magic.

The Eagles after speeding up are too scary, with a solid backcourt defense, coupled with an era-crossing offensive and defensive conversion speed, and a desperate three-point rain.

Star Van Gundy is still a bit conservative. He has a three-point shooter like JJ* Redick in the sky, but he has no operating instructions. He can only let the former NCAA three-pointer Wang Ku sit on the bench. , Putting Redick up against the Eagles, the Magic may still have the possibility of biting the score.

But he didn't do this, but replaced the main force in advance to suppress the eagle's surprise attack.

Mike Woodson was very calm, and continued his substitution strategy unhurriedly. During the normal rotation time, he put Ruan Erniu and other main players back on the field in turn.

Maybe it's because Woodson's coaching ability has improved after winning the championship last season, or maybe it's because he has enough confidence in this game.

Egghead made an amazing choice. He replaced the lunar eclipse and went directly to "Five Shots of Death".

Ruan Erniu, Novak, Salmons, Jon Jonson and Bibby stayed on the field.

Novak played against Lewis, which is a good matchup. The Hawks did not suffer as expected on the defensive end.

However, they are not the focus of the game, the focus is on the low post, and Ruan Erniu encountered the spark again.

On the offensive end of the Magic, Huo Hua held the ball in a low position and tried to force Erniu Ruan.

The deceived Er Niu didn't say anything, just held hands together, and pulled the spark aside with the ball.

The obvious foul sent the sparks directly to the free throw line.

Then, after two sounds of "Bang!" and "Bang!", Ruan Erniu jumped up and took the backboard.

The Sparks have made 59.4% of their free throws this season. It would be hell if they didn't get cut once for such a statistic.

Er Niu, who got the rebound, didn't pause at all, and directly took the ball to the frontcourt.

This time, Sparks was also very straightforward, with a direct tackle, sending Er Niu to the free throw line.

To a certain extent, this foul can be directly judged as a malicious foul.

However, considering the atmosphere at home, the referee finally gave a common foul, which made Woodson quite dissatisfied, and directly sent a "T".

Howard also has no choice. Without this level of foul, it is impossible to stop Ruan Erniu who is on the attack.

Last season, this guy still gave people the impression of the yellow-skinned James. This season, Ruan Erniu, who is breaking through with the ball, is simply a condensed version of O'Neal.

With ordinary defensive actions, there is no possibility of blocking him at all.

Er Niu was not affected by the referee, and he hit 2 free throws steadily. So far this season, the free throw percentage of the Chinese has risen from 79.3% last season to 87.9%, a full increase of 8.6%.

This season, Ruan Erniu's scoring average has improved significantly. Many people say that this is because he developed the top arc three-pointer.

Wrong again, the most important reason is that he got more free throws and he made them all!
Hurricane three-pointers, explosive inside, this is the only way the Magic can compete with the Eagles.

But in the second half of the second quarter, whether they were on the outside or inside, they gradually fell into the bottom line.

Sparks occasionally has one or two beautiful hooks or throws in the paint, but most of the time, Ruan Erniu is the stronger side.

In the case of limiting sparks to the greatest extent on the defensive end, the Bulls are completely slinging sparks on the offensive end.

Mid-range shots, breakthroughs, cuts, dunks, and even high-spirited shots, you can also shoot sparks directly from outside the three-point line. This is a multi-dimensional blow from a future center to a modern center.

It is true that there has never been a so-called omnipotent and perfect creature in this world.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest is a common law in any field. Howard really has nothing to complain about. If he has the lethality of O'Neill, at least he can complete the mutual explosion with the two bulls, so as not to fall into the current predicament.

The suspense of the first center did not last until the second half, and Ruan Erniu directly gave a formal answer in the second quarter.

Just like last season, Er Niu once again beat Warcraft on both ends of the offense and defense. This is not so much the victory of the future center against the modern center, as it is Ruan Erniu himself's complete suppression of the spark.

Regardless of whether contemporary centers or classical centers can regain the chance of returning to the king in the future, at least it belongs to Ruan Erniu instead of Howard.

Ruan Erniu made 7 of 5 shots in a single quarter, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 5 of 4 free throws, scored 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 1 assist.

Throughout the first half, the Celestials scored a total of 21 points, 14 rebounds, and 3 assists, while the opponent Sparks scored only 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 assists with almost the same shot rights.

Strictly speaking, this data is not bad. Converted to 48 minutes of playing time, it is probably an astonishing data close to 20+20. However, compared with Ruan Erniu's data, Howard's sense of presence has been weakened to the extreme.

Since Sheng Yu, He Shengliang.

The brutal competitive arena only needs one winner!

Barkley mocked: "Unsurprisingly, Kraft was not affected back to back. I don't think this is his best form. Even so, a certain Superman still has no hope of a comeback, because Kraft Nguyen It's born kryptonite."

In the live broadcast room of Chaoting TV, Yu Jia also started talking nonsense and chatting with Su Junyang after halftime. Whether the Eagles can finally win the game is not sure, anyway, Ruan Erniu is sure to get the spark!

Yu Jia said: "Friends of the audience, we will still conduct a halftime lottery draw as usual, and those who are drawn will have the opportunity to get Ruan Erniu's genuine autographed jersey! I shouted to start, and Teacher Su called to stop! Okay, let's start... "

Su Junyang grasped the rhythm well, and shouted at the right time: "Stop!"

Well, it's a pity that most of the viewers in front of the TV have never been lucky in their lives.
