Chapter 120: The difference in the first quarter

The second ball, a decisive foul by Rashad Lewis.

Many people say that Rashad Lewis is a parallel import. But in reality, it is no joke that Rashad Lewis can get a contract of 100 million yuan.

His superior shooting ability and height advantage give Rashad Lewis an unmatched advantage against most defenders.

In this regard, Rashad Lewis is very much like Nowitzki, and a bit like Durant and Qin Yang.

All four of them have projection and height advantages in the counterpoint, but relatively speaking, Rashad Lewis has no advantage in other aspects, while the other three have their own unique skills.

Nowitzki is not to mention, his shooting ability is perverted, he is very capable of defending under the basket and rebounding.

Durant is simply a bug on the small forward, it can be said that on the NBA court, Durant is really high and not fast with me, fast with me and not as high as me.

Qin Yang is another type, most of the opposing players are not as tall as me, even if the speed and height are similar to me, I have high ball skills and accurate shooting...... And the organizational skills are top-notch.

Relatively speaking, Rashad Lewis is a bit more embarrassed.

That's why Rashad Lewis is called a parallel trade.

But this one goal, Qin Yang saw it clearly off the court, if Rashad Lewis didn't foul and Vallejo continued to score, then the Magic team would be in trouble.

Vallejo scored two in the opening game, and the Cavaliers' tactics were completely played, so the Magic team would not be able to play well in the next game.

Vallejo made two of two free throws.

The game continues.

The Magic team attacked, Turkoglu finally chose to move after blocking and dismantling, Vallejo assisted in defense, Turkoglu played the iron gloriously, and Turkoglou's strength could not support a championship-level team.

At this time, it is undoubtedly revealed.

Fortunately, Howard on the inside was strong, and after grabbing the rebound, he directly picked up a dunk.

No one fouled this ball.

If the foul is a 2+1.

The Cavaliers took the lead at the beginning.

The Magic's configuration of one center with four shooters is somewhat similar to that of the Cavaliers, who shoot all but James, while the Cavaliers are more balanced.

Qin Yang watched from the sidelines and had a feeling that the Cavaliers had a great chance of winning the game.

A basketball game, in fact, is actually an arithmetic problem most of the time.

The lineup and play of the two sides determine a lot of things, as long as the two sides play normally, there will not be many problems with the outcome of the game.

For example, in the first quarter, the Magic team was very uncomfortable with the Cavaliers' defense.

In the first quarter, the Magic team was 8 of 22, and the performance was very poor, even if Howard worked hard, getting 10 points and 4 rebounds, it didn't help, this is the gap in tactics and strength.

Howard couldn't respond and couldn't carry the offense, so the Magic had to choose to shoot from the outside.

Outside pitchers, the Magic team is not strong, and it is easy to be interfered with.

With Alston, Kunit Lee, Turkoglou and Rashad Lewis in lineup, no one was able to open up the game with the ball. On the offensive end, the Magic fell into the underdog.

On the defensive end, the Magic read also suffered.

Rashad Lewis is older, slower, defensive pitcher is okay, and it's easy to get past when facing Mo Williams and Delonte West.

Turkoglou defensively is also decent, and it is unrealistic to rely on Turkoglu as a defensive striker.

Alston, as a street player, has a good breakout and passing, but his shooting is unstable and his defense is very tight, and he has always been the target of other teams.

Kunit Lee is a good 3-and-D player, but his quality is average.

The Magic's defense is to interfere with the shooting from the outside, and Howard relies on the inside, and it is really not easy for such a lineup to reach the Eastern Conference Finals.

In the first quarter, the Cavaliers took a 33-19 lead.

The Magic had a terrible first quarter and missed their shots.

In the second quarter, Qin Yang appeared.

Qin Yang played, the home fans cheered, and the last game faced the Eagles with 32 points in a single quarter, which made Qin Yang famous, and at this time, the fans of the quick loan center gave Qin Yang applause.

On the first ball, Qin Yang broke through with the help of Valejo's blocking.

In the face of Rashad Lewis's help defense, Qin Yang changed hands under his crotch, and a crossover accelerated breakthrough into the basket, which would have been a wonderful breakthrough layup.

But at the critical moment, Howard came up with a block to rack the ball out of bounds.

"Bruce, I'm here, you don't want to score under the basket."

Howard smiled, like a second goods, Qin Yang shook his head, very speechless.

Just now, Howard's defensive speed and bounce were really terrifying, and any of the inside lines of this substitution were estimated to be unable to help defend successfully.

Howard's speed and bounce were too terrifying, and in the blink of an eye, he blocked Qin Yang, who had already shot.

Vallejo served, Qin Yang received the ball and directly faced Kunit Lee's defensive shot, Kunit Lee looked embarrassed, but helpless. As a 3-and-D player, Kunit Lee is also well-known in the league, but ...... There is no way to improve the height difference, and Qin Yang directly shot without interference at all.

Magic team players, Qin Yang is most afraid of Tekoglu.

Turkoglu's height is a little taller than Qin Yang's, and his speed is not slow, Qin Yang has no advantage in height, and his speed advantage is not big, and the efficiency of singles Turkoglu is not necessarily high.

The goal was scored, and the Magic immediately added a small timeout.

After the timeout, the Magic's tactics changed again, and Howard no longer stood under the basket to play low-post singles and grab rebounds, but cut directly after the outside line blocked and picked-up.

Seeing this change in tactics, Qin Yang felt bad.

Howard's air cut threat is very big, except for mid-range shooting, Howard can't foul as long as he runs, and the air cut is a dunk.

No one can stop this strength, height, and bounce.

Fortunately...... The Magic didn't have a good point guard, no one to pass the ball, and they couldn't play Howard's empty cut, let alone cooperate with Howard, and it was best to be very good at shooting.

Howard is a cover, the ball handler can find a shooting opportunity, even if the iron is hit, the probability of Howard rushing to grab the rebound is also very high, if the ball is passed, Howard directly cut and dunked.

This combination is simple but practical.

It's similar to the Jazz's pick-and-roll combination and the Suns' Nash Jr.

It's a pity that the strength of the person who attacks with the ball is a bit poor, and this tactic didn't work.

Turkoglu hit a shot, and Howard squeezed through Vallejo to catch an easy dunk from the basketball.

It's not tactical, it's that Howard's air cut is too powerful.

Unlike Xiao Si, in addition to the air cut, Xiao Si's face frame offense is also top-notch, whether it is shooting or layups, the level is very high, but Howard's face frame offense is ...... Appalling.

Not only has it changed, but the Magic team's passing and cutting coordination and shooting have also become more crisp and neat.

The dismal feeling of the first quarter slowly recovered, the point difference did not widen, and the Magic team scored more and more unorganized.

In the second quarter, Qin Yang came on the court, but he didn't open up the difference.
