After the second quarter, the battle situation was the same as Qin Yang expected, and the game did not quickly fall to the side.

The Magic are resilient by comparison.

On the one hand, this resilience is due to the player's regaining his touch, and on the other hand, Howard's role under the basket is too great.

On the offensive end, Howard can grab rebounds for a second offense, and it is difficult to be blocked after the spark jumps under the basket, while on the defensive end, Howard's deterrence is too strong.

Qin Yang was capped, and he was all apprehensive, while the other players were avoiding Howard to play.

As long as Howard is ready under the basket, the Cavaliers players rarely choose to break through the basket to score, and most of them are based on jump shots, which cannot be said to be wrong, but it is very unwise at this time.

The Magic lineup is actually quite restrained by the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers' strongest point is James, who is unstoppable on the break, sharp on offense under the basket, and good at passing.

But with Howard under the basket, James didn't play so casually.

The rest of the Cavaliers are mainly based on projection, supplemented by breakthroughs, and when Howard's basket is extremely deterrent, the Cavaliers' outside projection has increased.

Focusing on outside projection, it's easier to defend.

The Magic's lineup is an interior with four shooters, which is exactly for the Cavaliers' lineup.

Qin Yang passes, Mo Williams hits the iron, Vallejo hits the iron.

Seeing this, Qin Yang was helpless at all.

After reaching out and calling for a block, Qin Yang broke through and shot directly in the middle distance, and the Tekoglu who assisted in the defense was still far away, but Qin Yang hit the iron in the middle distance where the position was almost empty.

"The location...... It's not very easy to fight. ”

Qin Yang was very clear about his strengths and weaknesses. Outside the three-point line and on both sides of the baseline are Qin Yang's best areas, but in the mid-range position, Qin Yang's shooting percentage is not good.

Or in this position, there is no feel.

Qin Yang specially looked at his shooting area with the coaching staff, and the shooting rate in the mid-range position was only 30%, which was Qin Yang's lowest shooting rate in all positions.

The Cavaliers are attacking again, and the Magic are already close by three points.

Qin Yang was helpless and passed the ball to James.

James held the ball, ran over it, and finally scored a difficult layup under the basket.

Howard defends well, but James is a bit stronger.

Wow!

The home fans cheered for this goal, but Qin Yang had a tense face, and his eyes showed worry:

"It can't go on like this, relying on James' personal ability is not a long-term solution."

Qin Yang helped defend Rashad Lewis and was hit by a light jumper by Lewis for a mid-range shot, and once Rashad Lewis was on target, no one was helpless.

Qin Yang's defense was already in place, but Rashad Lewis was still a solid scorer.

The Cavaliers attacked, Qin Yang and Mo Williams played a block, Mo Williams received the ball and hit the iron from the middle distance, and it was Kunit Lee who defended Mo Williams, and the defense of this 3D player was very good.

Under the basket, Howard once again went high and got the rebound.

Ben Wallace was better at this rebounding position, and Ben Wallace was stuck in the position, but Howard jumped really high and grabbed the rebound directly above his head.

The Magic are on the offensive again.

Alston passed to Petrus, Petrus broke through, Qin Yang assisted in defense, Petrus shot iron, Qin Yang turned around and got the rebound.

Petrus, known as the French Jordan, is a standout role player.

The outside projection level is not weak, the physical quality is excellent, and the most impressive thing is the outstanding defense.

Qin Yang dribbled over the half, Petrus directly defended Qin Yang, Petrus was very physical, and he didn't give Qin Yang a chance to turn around, and the card was very strict.

Qin Yang dribbled with his right hand, took a step back directly to pull the ball, and Petrus instantly leaned forward to defend Qin Yang's shot.

Qin Yang pulled the ball and then volleyed, and broke through to the right side successfully.

Petrus is very good defensively, but it is not without flaws, and it is easy to be blown up when encountering players like Kobe and Carmelo Anthony.

In the regular season, Qin Yang once encountered Petrus's defense, and he also practiced counterpointing.

Playing Petrus, choosing to work directly and hard is to find guilt.

After the light breakthrough, Qin Yang went directly to the basket, and Howard stepped forward to help defend, and reached out to Qin Yang to hat. Qin Yang had been prepared for a long time, although he provoked it first, but he stayed in the air and threw the basketball out from under his arm after Howard picked it up.

Under the basket, Ben Wallace received the ball and scored with a dunk.

Howard is not a superman after all, and no matter how good his defense is, it is impossible to take care of two people, this is the best way Qin Yang came up with to deal with Howard.

The Magic went on offense, and Howard scored on a layup.

The Cavaliers attacked, Qin Yang used the cover of Mo Williams to match Alston and Alstom, Qin Yang directly provoked a three-point shot.

Unfortunately, this three-pointer turned out to be iron.

Rashad Lewis got the rebound, the Magic attacked, Howard got the rebound and forced a shot, Rashad got the rebound, and then assisted Petrus to score.

The Magic's offense isn't sharp, but it's solid.

Howard is responsible for interior defense and secondary offense, while the outside is dominated by passing and shooting.

The Cavaliers attacked, and Qin Yang continued to attack with the ball.

At this time, handing it over to James is not a good choice.

Qin Yang dribbled over half the court, and it was still Turkoglu who defended Qinyang, and Petrus and Turkoglu both played at the same time, and Petrus's task was to defend James.

Tekoglu defended, and Qin Yang was not stunned at all.

In terms of physical fitness, Turkoglu is much worse.

Qin Yang's physical fitness can already be regarded as outstanding, facing Tekoglu's defense, he directly changed hands under his crotch, and then accelerated through with a sharp stop.

Tekoglu's defense is actually pretty average.

After accelerating the breakthrough, Qin Yang did not hesitate and continued to rush into the inner line.

Rashad Lewis assists in defense, Howard does not dare to assist in defense on the other side, if Howard assists in defense, then Qin Yang passes directly under the basket, and teammates can dunk directly.

Rashad Lewis is often hacked because of defensive flaws.

His ability to help defend and protect the rim under the basket is completely disproportionate to his height.

A light smashing board, Qin Yang hit and scored.

The Magic team is very resilient, but the Cavaliers have not been pulled away by many points under the leadership of Qin Yang, at this time, Qin Yang instead relied on breakthroughs and passes to open up the situation.

In this game, Qin Yang's hand felt very bad, he shot many times, and his three-point shot was even more embarrassing.

In this case, the Cavaliers are still ahead.

In the second half of the second quarter, James finally went off the court.

But the Cavaliers still didn't lag behind, Pavlovic and Dronte West had a good hand, hit shots many times, and played well with Qin Yang's assist.

The Cavaliers have been leading, but not by much.
