As one of the last Predator Corps in the East, the Magic team will go up to strength without saying a word!

Most people have a one-star impression of the Magic, but in reality, they don't take many shots, only three-point shots, and they have averaged just 78 shots per game over the past two seasons, which is even slightly below the league average.

Where they are strong is in defense!

And it's not a single defense, it's a team-type strengthened confrontation, bringing up the confrontation between yourself and the other party, consuming the feel of both sides, and then using their stronger shooting ability on the outside, purely relying on the outside individual ability to shoot and Howard's secondary offensive scoring!

Last season, as long as Gasol Jr. could play, the Grizzlies had a clear advantage over the Magic, one game the Grizzlies took the other side lightly, and after the opponent raised the defensive intensity, the two sides began to cut the shark tactics, so the Grizzlies did not really feel where the Magic team was strong.

But this time, I felt it!

If you can't defend alone, you can make crazy pinching, giving strong physical contact to the person who is let go before the pinching, and a lot of shrinking baskets, and Howard is around the three-second zone to help defend......

How to grind the rhythm to death!

And Randolph is the worst, Howard was already eyeing him, the time Sun Ce was forced to eat at the beginning, Randolph helped Sun Ce block Howard from shrinking the defense, and Howard was even more terrible, staring at Randolph and biting.

After Howard and Sun Ce each ate one in the opening game, there were no sports battle scores in the next few rounds!

In the fourth minute of the first quarter, Randolph grabbed an offensive rebound and hit a basket, finally breaking the deadlock between the two teams without scoring in a sports battle.

The Grizzlies called a timeout!

Five minutes passed, and the score was 6-5...... The rhythm is simply amazing! And the shooting feel has a tendency to deteriorate more and more.

Coach Hollins analysed the situation on the field.

The low scoring is due to the fact that the starting lineup Sun Ce and Randolph both prefer to score from close to mid-range, and Gasol Jr. is currently also mainly scoring from close range, and his mid-range shooting is not so stable, so he shoots less, so as not to expose the instability of his mid-range shooting, and the outside pitchers are Guy and Conley...... The inner line shrinks to the body contact, and the outside line gives the body contact a defense.

Who would have thought that the Grizzlies started the game with Sun Ce throwing in a strong hook to score two points, plus a pair of free throws and a total of 3 points to become the first offensive point?

Back on the bench, Gasol Jr. felt a little skeptical about life...... He thinks he can defend Howard very well, because he has defended well for the past two years.

But this time I was abused......

Gasol Jr. has lost weight, and his comprehensive ability has been significantly improved, even if he is not so adaptable to the new defensive habits and shooting feeling now, there is also an A-level ability evaluation, and there is a high probability that as long as he adapts to the current physical condition, he will be able to enter the peak at the age of 26! It is estimated that he can have an A+ level ability evaluation and become a real All-Star level player.

But the comprehensive ability has become stronger, but it can't bear Howard.

Gasol Jr. has become thinner, Howard has gained muscle, and this has changed the other!

With a similar weight difference, Gasol Jr. will definitely not be able to carry Howard.

It's not that a position that doesn't affect only the defense, it's a whole thing.

When Howard can carry Gasol Jr. to rebound under the basket, the Magic can drain themselves and their opponents' touches to the fullest, and play a slower pace to cope with the possible acceleration of the Grizzlies when Sun Ce is on the floor.

Coach Hollins was not afraid to play defense, but he didn't expect that the classmate on the opposite side would not be tempted, and directly turned on the iron-blooded mode and caught the Grizzlies off guard.

But...... Who's afraid of whom!

Originally, Coach Hollins wanted a balanced offensive and defensive strategy, and there were so many pitchers who didn't have to be in vain.

Now Coach Hollins is ready to go with the opposing hard steel!

"Noah, Tony, Paul, Sean, DeAndre, go up and kill them!" Coach Hollins sent Sun Ce + four defensive players who are good at physical contact!

In the center position, Gasol Jr. can't hold Howard against it, so he uses the poor version of Howard, Battier will not suffer in all aspects regardless of defending Turkoglou or Lewis, and it is more suitable to play a big forward defensive player with a slower speed, not to mention Tony Allen, the one with the best defense of the Grizzlies.

Paul George's physical talent is not as good as Guy's, and he seems to be the type of floating shot in college, which once made the Grizzlies feel that he is the rookie version of Guy, and it is a weakened rookie version, Guy is the kind of guy who knows that the future is promising after playing in the preseason of his rookie season, and he averages 20 points per game in his sophomore year, Paul George's talent is definitely worse than Guy, and it can be seen from the preseason of his rookie season that it is not as good as Guy of the period.

But I didn't expect Paul George's performance in the preseason to be unexpected! On the offensive end, like Guy, he likes to use his physical fitness to shoot dry, and likes to use his physical fitness to attack the basket on the counterattack, and he doesn't like physical contact on the offensive end.

But when it comes to defending, Paul George is not afraid to fight!

On the defensive end, the four gods bring a lineup to the court!

On the Magic's side, after giving physical contact at the beginning, they began to add outside pitchers.

Nelson was substituted, with a lineup of Redick, Richardson, Turkoglou, Ryan Anderson, and Howard coming on.

……

After the pause, the managers of both sides couldn't help but spew a mantra when they saw the opponent's lineup.

"They're not going to attack?"

"They're not going to defend anymore?"

Neither Coach Van Gundy nor Coach Hollins expected to have such a great time!

Coach Van Gundy looked at the opponent's lineup, except for Sun Ce, the other four did not have the ability to attack independently...... Not even offensive! He thought that the opponent's starting touch would be exhausted in the opening stage, and the opponent would definitely increase the scorer, and then the pitcher on his side would increase, and the opponent would definitely not be able to prevent it, but he didn't expect the opponent to play like this.

Coach Hollins also didn't expect that the opponent would not continue to strengthen the defense after playing Iron Will, but sent four top shooters + rebounding kings.

Howard walked to the free throw line, probably surprised by the opposing lineup, and missed the first free throw......

Little Jordan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw this...... His preseason free-throw percentage has improved from 37.5 percent last season to 50 percent. This guy can still be three without touching! Who said he was the poor man's version?

And then...... Howard hits second free throw!

The fans who were laughing on the sidelines were stunned......

This guy is really weird!

Sun Ce felt very interesting watching Howard's free throws, one of the NBA spectacles.

But after watching the free throws, he felt that trouble was coming......

I looked at the next four teammates...... How to fight the offense?
