Chapter 242 Finale Series in Orlando!!

The next evening, the Wajovia Center in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia fans have already filled the arena, and the 76ers will head tonight for the second half of the playoffs’ first round.

And after this game, they will go to Orlando for the road.

Philadelphia fans agreed that this was the 76ers’ last home game in the first round of the playoffs.

In their opinion, the Magic won’t have a chance to come back here again this season.

There is still half an hour left before the start of the game.

At this point, the players from both sides are preparing in their respective dressing rooms.

In the home team’s locker room, the 76ers players were talking and laughing, looking very relaxed, without the tension of the upcoming game.

On the other hand, looking at the visiting locker room, the Magic players looked solemn, and head coach Doug Rivers was also calm.

After these two days of research, the Magic’s coaching staff did not find a strategy to deal with the 76ers, which means that it is difficult for them to win this game, unless the Magic team is in full condition, but this probability is too slim.

“Charles, how many points do you think the Philadelphia 76ers can win today?”

At the commentary table, Kenny Smith said with a smile.

‘Flying Pig’ Barkley glanced at him, and then the corners of his mouth raised an evil arc.

This made Kenny Smith can’t help but feel a chill down his spine: “You……… Why are you looking at me like that? ”

“Kenny, do you want us to bet on something more?” Like kissing a pig’s butt! ”

The moment Barkley said this, Kenny Smith’s face suddenly changed.

Back in the beginning of the season, they gambled on Yao Ming, and Kenny Smith lost the bet, and for this in front of the media, kissed the ass of the donkey.

This incident is still fresh in my memory, and the moment he kissed the ass of the donkey, Kenny Smith almost vomited, let alone kissed the pig’s butt.

That picture, just thinking about it made him sick.

“You lunatic, I won’t bet with you.”

Kenny Smith immediately glared at him.

The two were joking, and the players from both sides had already come out and started the pre-match warm-up.

Before the start of the game, reporters from the sidelines interviewed both sides.

Doug Rivers said: “After losing the last game, we used two days to make adjustments, and I’m sure you’ll see a different Orlando Magic in this game. ”

Although he was very weak in his heart when he said this, he pretended to be confident in front of reporters.

On the other hand, Larry Bulang said: “No matter what changes they make, we are always responsive, so in my opinion, they will not help in any way.” ”

A few minutes later, the pre-match warm-up ended and the game officially began.

There are no changes to the starting lineup of the two sides, but the Magic’s sixth man, Pat Garritty, is out due to injury, which is definitely a big blow to the already weak Magic team.

After the start of the match, Jiang Pan immediately showed a strong desire to attack. He hit frequently at the basket, and the Rain Man’ Sean Kemp was helpless.

To make matters worse, Maddie wasn’t in good form tonight, and he was the Magic’s only offensive strength.

Once Maddie can’t score, the rest of the Magic can’t do it.

With less than six minutes into the first quarter, the Philadelphia 76ers had already built a 10-point lead.

On the sidelines, Doug Rivers hurriedly called a timeout to make adjustments, and if he continued to play like this, I am afraid that the game would be over after the first quarter.

The thought of what he said before the game made Coach Rivers feel smacked in the face.

Tonight’s Magic team is indeed different, and they lost more thoroughly than they did in the last game.

After the pause, the Magic didn’t improve much. Maddie was once again in a scoring drought after scoring two goals in a row.

The Philadelphia 76ers, led by Jiang Pan and Iverson, further widened the gap.

The first quarter of the game is over.

17:37

The Philadelphia 76ers, playing at home, took a 20-point lead in just one quarter.

At this moment, those Magic fans in Orlando are simply disheartened.

“This fart huh? 20 points behind in one quarter? ”

“This is the playoffs? Hehe, this stupid coach hurry up and get out. ”

“Alas……… One is not as good as one, or don’t watch it. ”

“I promise, it’s the worst game I’ve ever seen.”

Magic fans were immensely disappointed with their performance.

Some grumpy fans even chose to burn their jerseys to vent their anger.

After the start of the second quarter, the situation for the Magic did not change.

Jiang Pan forcibly grabbed the inside line and cut points madly, in fact, he didn’t have to do this, but he wanted to clock in and leave work earlier.

For him, the competition was really not challenging.

On the bench of the Magic, the bench players all bowed their heads, some were gnawing their nails, some didn’t know what they were thinking, in short, no players cared about the game.

The five players who played on the field were also extremely depressed, and their emotions could be seen from their bodies.

Their offense became loose, and their defense was even more careless.

Maddie, as the star of the team, is also extremely disappointed at this time, looking at these teammates around him, looking at the teammates around Iverson, it is simply a world of difference.

He and Allen Iverson are in the same big four, why is the difference in the strength of the team so big.

At the end of the first half, the difference was a terrifying 36 points.

Maddie had no intention of fighting, and in the third quarter, Maddie played only five minutes before being substituted.

Now that the score difference has broken through to 40+, there is no need to play again.

In the end, the Philadelphia 76ers, playing at home, beat the Magic by 35 points, and the series was changed to 2-0.

After the game, Maddie was interviewed by reporters.

“Tracy, it’s a pity that you lost again, and the situation in the playoffs is becoming more and more unfavorable for you.”

“Do you have anything you want to say now?”

Faced with the reporter’s question, Maddie took a deep breath, and then glanced at Iverson with envious eyes.

“I really tried my best, but I can’t decide the outcome of the game alone.”

“What if… If I had a teammate like Jiang by my side, I wouldn’t have fought so weakly. ”

Saying this, Maddie’s expression was a little dark, and the reporter also sympathized with him. Maddie has quality and talent, but unfortunately, the overall quality of the team is really not very good.

After the game, the Philadelphia 76ers players packed their bags and boarded a plane to Orlando.

Next, they intend to finish the series in Orlando!
