End of third quarter.

The Magic players returned to the bench with a smile, and the atmosphere of the Bulls was very solemn, and the advantage of the first half was reversed in one quarter, which was too much of a tragedy.

Rose kept his head down, covered his head with a towel, and did not communicate with his teammates and coaches.

The others didn't dare to go up and say anything.

TNT live.

Charles Barkley smiled and said very forcefully: "Sure enough, as I expected, the Bulls did not withstand the wave of the Magic team, in the first quarter just now, Bruce's play was too critical, one by one three-pointers, directly stunned the Bulls, and the Magic team successfully completed the reversal." ”

Kenny Smith laughed, shouting MMP in his heart.

At halftime, the two commentators were the same, and neither was in a hurry to decide the winner, and now that the Magic team has reversed, Barkley said as if he was prescient.

Kenny Smith refused.

But now I have to echo and say: "In the fourth quarter, the Bulls have little chance of reversing, the Magic team is stronger, whether it is Howard on the inside or Bruce Qin on the outside, they are stronger than the Bulls, this game, if there is no accident, the Magic team has won, and what the Bulls need to do next is how to win after returning to the home court." ”

Kenny Smith said what Qin Yang wanted to say, but the Bulls didn't listen.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Bulls began to fight back.

But Howard guarded on the inside, was very effective on the defensive end, and also performed well on the offensive end, without Qin Yang's strength at all, the Bulls' wave of offense went down.

As soon as the momentum goes on, this game is almost over. In the last eight minutes, the two sides played evenly.

The game ended, and on the second home court, the Magic won again.

Qin Yang was 14 of 26, 9 of 16 three-pointers, and got 39 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks.

Howard had 19 points, 12 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks, and his performance was still very good.

With the team trailing by a large margin in the first half, the Magic came back from behind and showed a strong team demeanor, and in this case, no one thought the Bulls could win unless they were fools or Bulls fans.

The first game was won easily.

In the second game, the overall strength of the Magic team has been higher, and there is basically no suspense in this series, and the only thing to watch is whether the Bulls can get a permanent victory when they return to their home court.

Of course, Derrick Rose, who returned to Chicago after the game, did not admit defeat:

"We played the two road games, we had a chance to win, but we didn't take our chances, and I think the Bulls back in Chicago still have a chance, and then it's time for the real tiebreaker."

Ross didn't throw in the towel, but the others stopped talking.

When faced with the interview, Kirksinrich, Ruhr Deng and others only said that they would work hard.

The local media in Chicago even criticized others except Rose for not having the intention of winning, which made Qin Yang look confused.

"Are the Bulls stupid?"

Qin Yang said to Dwight in private, and Dwight shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything.

After the game, Qin Yang and Howard took their teammates to dinner, did not go to nightclubs, did not go to strip bars, and went back to rest after dinner.

By the second day, the team continued training.

The game is coming, the training intensity is very low, at most it is a maintenance condition.

The players are talking and laughing and keeping their minds calm.

On the other hand, when the Magic won, the other teams performed similarly as expected.

The games in the league, except for the occasional rookie outburst and superstar rage, are expected.

All problems, after all, are math problems.

This still works in basketball, where the average level of players this season has been determined, and in the playoffs, when the two teams are compared, they are basically the same.

The Celtics played against the Heat, and no matter how hard Wade tried, he lost helplessly on both roads.

The Cavaliers played against the Bobcats, two big scores, the Bobcats had no chance in the playoffs at all, Larry Brown's dismissal, not to mention some out of touch with the times, and the team's strength was also one layer worse.

The Hawks vs. the Bucks have a lot to watch.

The Hawks played fewer players, and after winning the first game, the Bucks played well in the second game, and they overturned the Hawks away.

After the game, the media generally stated:

"If Bogut hadn't been out due to injury, which greatly affected the strength of the Bucks, the Bucks would have a 70% chance of winning."

This is purely an afterthought.

But fans love to watch.

The Western Conference playoffs are equally intense.

The Lakers played against the Thunder, a 1-1 draw, one of them, in the end, the Thunder broke out and turned the game around, and the Thunder's talent was too good.

Although Russell Westbrook is liked by Qin Yang, Qin Yang has to admit that Westbrook's physical fitness is outstanding.

Also talented is Kevin Durant.

In fact, what the Thunder team didn't do well was that they didn't play a smooth tactical match, and it was still unrealistic to win just by relying on talent.

Jazz vs. Nuggets.

On the first road, Carmelo Anthony showed the style of a superstar, and single-handedly blew up the Jazz.

18 of 25 in a single game, with free throws, and got 42 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds. With this kind of data, even if Deron Williams has 26 points and 11 assists, it will not help.

In the first game, the Nuggets won strongly.

But then, on the second road, the Nuggets played poorly, and the Jazz played steadily and won.

When it comes to the playoffs, don't worry about a player breaking out, because in seven games, it's super lucky to be able to break out in two games, and most of the time, it depends on the absolute strength.

Last season, Qinyang was in such a good state in the playoffs, with 30 points in a single quarter of the playoffs, and he reached the finals, and he performed well in the finals, and then what about ......

No, the Lakers won the championship.

Bull and horse war, the Spurs are still strong, Nowitzki alone can't support the beam, it is estimated that he will kneel in the first round, Novitzki is the most tragic superstar in the active service so far, there is no one.

The Suns vs. the Trail Blazers, the advantage is also obvious.

The Trail Blazers, who lost Brandon Roy, were obviously a little poor, and it was only a matter of a game or two that they were eliminated.

On the 22nd, the Magic came to Chicago to play the Bulls away.

It was the Bulls' first home court.

When the players entered the field, Qin Yang could feel the difference.

When Rose finally entered the court, the whole of Chicago seemed to be in a frenzy, and the frenzied momentum made the home players' blood boil, but it was a real lingering pressure for the Magic.

"This game is not easy to play."

Qin Yang felt this way in his heart.
