Chapter 184: See You Again (2nd Update)
After Gotatra opened up space, Tyson Chandler had to defend it, and Qin Yang got the opportunity to attack the basket directly, scoring twice in a row.
After that, Qin Yang made a steal, hit a mid-range board, and scored an assist for Brandonbas, and at the end of the third quarter, the Magic led by 15+ and completely confirmed the lead.
After the start of the fourth quarter, the Bobcats launched a final comeback.
But Qin Yang continued to assist, Vince Carter hit a three-pointer, Howard dunked directly, withstood the pressure, and played away against the Bobcats, and the Magic team won without danger.
In this game, Qin Yang was 12 of 20, 6 of 11 three-pointers, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored 33 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds with super efficiency.
This game was the fewest assists Qin Yang had in recent games.
Because several times the passer scored after dribbling, the number of direct points was rare. Not counting Qin Yang's assists, Qin Yang's passing is more about transferring the ball to others.
Howard was super efficient, 7-of-13, 4-of-8 free throws, and had 18 points, 10 rebounds and 1 steal, including less than 30 minutes due to foul play.
At the same time, Gortat had 12 points and 8 rebounds, and he played very well.
Blantonbas had 12 points and four rebounds, Vince Carter had 14 points and five assists, and Petrus had 12 points and four rebounds.
The Magic's worst players were Redick and Ryan Anderson, who faced a strong defense and almost sky-high shooting percentages in this game.
Ryan Anderson was 1 of 6, Redick was 2 of 7, and there was no most pit, only more pits.
The Bobcats were very poor on the offensive end, missed many shots, and weak three-pointers from the outside, but still used such defense to keep saving the score and holding the situation.
It wasn't until the final quarter that the game was won.
Gerard Wallace played very well, 7 of 17 in the game, got 14 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist and 4 steals.
Inside, Tyson Chandler of the Bobcats also played well, although he only got 8 points and 11 rebounds, but he contributed a lot of strength on the defensive end.
The rest of the Bobcats played somewhat mediocre.
Dior was 7 of 18, although he got 14 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds, but the efficiency was relatively average, Qin Yang made four shots in front of Dior and hit 3 of them.
When facing Qin Yang, Dior's omnipotence is a burden.
After playing the Bobcats, the Magic finally had a break, and after returning to Orlando, the team took a day off, and by this time, the media had already begun to hype up the next game.
TNT News:
"The Magic's home game should be broadcast live across the United States, but unfortunately the pre-season schedule is wrong, and TNT News will broadcast the Venus live on both channels, which is a patient game. Because the next game is Bruce Qin's first game against the Cavaliers after selecting the Magic, if there are no surprises in this year's playoffs, the Eastern Conference Finals are likely to be the Magic vs. the Cavaliers. ”
"Whether Bruce Qin regrets joining the Magic team, or the Cavaliers regret not renewing Bruce Qin, there will be a result in this game."
TNT News is not a big deal to watch the excitement.
In fact, both the media and the fans love this kind of duel the most.
Yesterday you ignored me, today I let you can't afford to climb, this kind of transfer after the battle with the original team, often very interesting, very gimmicky.
But...... The fact is that on the rest day, Qin Yang led all the members of the Magic team to welcome the arrival of the Cavaliers, and invited everyone on the Cavaliers team to a drinking party.
The NBA is just a competitive league, not a life-and-death fight.
James brought his Cavaliers teammates to participate, chatting and laughing with Qin Yang, and didn't care at all about the unpleasantness that happened in the offseason.
Qin Yang also communicated with the rest of the Cavaliers, especially Vallejo, Mo Williams and others.
At the party, Shaq O'Neal twisted his ass and tuned a dance, which caused laughter, and Qin Yang even toasted with O'Neill.
Until the evening, the wine will disperse.
The next day, the game resumed.
Before the game, Qin Yang was interviewed:
'It's just a normal game, it's no different from the other 81 games, all I can do is play well and win this game with my team-mates.'
After leaving the Knights, Qin Yang also had some atmosphere in his heart.
Obviously, his requirements are not high, and it is not a problem to add some ball possession, and it is acceptable to anyone, but the Cavaliers did not renew the contract.
Qin Yang can guess the truth in this.
In this game, Qin Yang must make James regret it.
In the locker room, Qin Yang grabbed the other teammates and said directly:
"This game has a special meaning for me, so I want to shoot more in this game, I will make fewer passes to everyone, I hope you don't get angry, and you need to cover me more."
Qin Yang can flicker his words when facing the media, but he is very direct when facing his teammates.
After Qin Yang finished speaking, Howard immediately agreed: "No problem, I will give you the block and rebound, and I will pass it to you when I have the opportunity." ”
"I'll defend the others, you can attack with confidence." Matt Barnes said decisively.
Vince Carter also nodded: "I have no problem, I will reduce the number of shots and create opportunities for you." ”
Howard and Vince Carter both agreed, Matt Barnes, the biggest thorn in the team, supported it, and the others couldn't object at all, Ryan Anderson's face was a little unhappy, and Redick was silent, obviously not agreeing much. But there is no way to say it at this time, and it cannot be said.
If you really want to say it, you will definitely be angry with Howard.
Qin Yang knew that the two wanted the ball and wanted to increase their shots, and Qin Yang didn't mind passing the ball to the two more in normal times, but Qin Yang had to make more shots in this game.
At the same time, James also encouraged his teammates:
"The Magic are our opponents in this year's playoffs, no matter what, this game must be won, Delonte, Xiao Mo, you have to make a decisive move, don't hesitate."
Dronte West and Mo Williams nodded.
Last season, the Cavaliers did not renew Qin Yang's contract, and in addition to James's reasons, the biggest reasons were Delonte West and Mo Williams.
"The Cavaliers don't have that much demand for Bruce Qin, and we already have star players on the perimeter."
That's what the Cavaliers said to the outside world at the time, but after the start of the regular season with eight or nine games that all the media didn't think so, it was an opportunity for Mo Williams and Dronte West to prove themselves.
Both held their breath.
