The continuous scoring momentum made the morale of the whole Warriors team high, and Coach Johnny called a timeout in time to prevent the Magic from being robbed of too many points by a wave. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Even so, amid the loud cheers of the audience, the Magic's lead was eroded little by little.

It wasn't until Francis hit his first three-pointer of the game that the Magic regained their footing and led the Warriors 80-76 into the final quarter.

At halftime, most of the basketball commentators who watched the game thought that the Magic could win the game, but in the third quarter, the Warriors' momentum of chasing points soared in vain, and no one dared to say that the Magic would definitely win, and the key was to look at the fourth quarter.

Both teams enter rotation lineup time.

The Warriors have a lineup of PG Salmons, SG Petrus, SF Dunleavy, PF Alana Fayer and C Dale Davis, while the Magic have a lineup of PG Jamil Nelson, SG Steve Francis, SF Turkoglou, PF Pat Garrity, and C Mario Casu.

Francis has been the league's top player in minutes, averaging more than 40 minutes per game in three of his five seasons in Houston, and 39.7 minutes per game so far this season, behind only Allen Iverson and LeBron James.

Looking at this posture, the coach is ready to let Francis play until the end.

Francis continued his touch, scoring consecutive mid-range shots at the start of the fourth quarter, and causing a foul on Petrus, scoring six straight points at once to stretch the score to 10 points.

Montgomery called a timeout, and Yang Di got up straight from the bench.

"Coach."

Montgomery shook his head and gritted his teeth to refuse Yang Di's fiery request to play.

Although he is not a famous coach in the NBA, nor is he a decorated coach in the NCAA, he is a serious and convicted coach. Battles can be lost, but it's definitely not a one-time win, the Warriors are in a rebuilding period, and players learn that it's more important to fight against pressure than to win games.

So Montgomery instilled that philosophy in every substitute and believed they could get back on their feet.

In the NBA, there are times when the coach is so incomprehensible, and most of the time fans don't understand why the coach doesn't put the main player on the court early to stabilize the situation, or replace the star they expect to see, and derive all kinds of inexplicable speculations, such as whether they are discriminated against, or whether the coach dislikes.

At 8 minutes and 28 seconds, Yang Di was substituted.

Yang Di, who was on the court, immediately blocked Jamison's breakthrough layup, guarded the restricted area and broke his personal record for the number of blocks per game.

7 caps, and the audience gave a standing ovation.

Howard was even more restless off the court, he only had three fouls on him at this time, and he always felt that his physical strength was particularly good today, as if he couldn't run out, so he looked at the coach with anticipation in his eyes.

At 6:59, Coach Johnny swapped Howard back on the court.

At this time, stimulated by Yang Di's cap and frame, the Warriors got up a little bit again, and the score chased to 94-99.

"Won't let you score any more!"

Howard didn't know what nerve he had wrong, and when he passed by Richardson's side, he said a trash talk to Richardson, which immediately made Richardson angry, and he was ready to teach this rookie a good lesson for a while.

But at this time, it was the Magic who attacked.

Francis, who had already scored 29 points in the game, conserved his strength and distributed the ball to the wing Mobley organization.

Mobley hooked his finger at Howard, who staggered to the outside of the three-point line and blatantly made a pick-and-roll at Mobley's bottom right.

Fisher thought to himself, I'll let you pass this way, don't mess around.

He stepped up and followed Mobley, and ran over Howard with Mobley, and when he passed, Howard secretly made a mistake and pouted his waist to try to block Mobley a little more.

Fisher was so good that he immediately screamed "ah" when he noticed that Howard was moving too much, as if he had been electrocuted and fell to the ground in convulsions.

At the same time as he fell, Howard was exposed, and the referee immediately blew Howard for a cover violation.

"The rookie thinks too simply." When Fisher heard the whistle, he scrambled to his feet and glanced at Howard triumphantly.

Yang Di shook his head, this kind of trick didn't dare to use in the Heat last season, you know, at that time he was still a substitute center, there was no foul consideration, I can only say that this kind of thing is too stupid to lose the ball in vain, he would rather cover a little lower quality and cover a few more times.

The Warriors attacked, Richardson dribbled under his crotch and dribbled behind his back, and Jandy blocked Francis for him.

"Supplement!"

Francis shouted, but it was too late, and Richardson made a jumper from one step inside the three-point line.

Although Howard reached out to interfere, Richardson shot quickly, completed the overall projection before his interference arrived, and the rhythm was in one go, and it fell neatly into the frame. 99 to 96.

Howard's face was blue and white, Francis saw that his expression was wrong, came over and patted him on the shoulder, but opened his mouth, after all, he couldn't meet the big Chinese man in Houston, that humble, friendly person, the person he always wanted to cover, and Howard, from the first day of joining the team, is the core of the Magic's reconstruction.

After halftime, Howard asked for the ball.

Francis frowned, but still hoisted the ball in.

Howard turned around and attacked with a frame.

Yang Di: "Come on rookie, I'll slam your ball down as easily as killing an ant, oh no, a strong cockroach." ”

Howard struggled to get Young's hateful trash talk out of his head, then dribbled to the left with the ball in both hands, as if it was a forced breakthrough to the left.

Yang Di's center of gravity moved slightly, not daring to be careless.

The second time, Howard turned his back and slapped on the ground, and the basketball was re-grasped by him in his hand, with his right foot as the axis, and his left foot drew a big circle on the ground, and then transferred to Yang Di's right side, "rubbing" the ground, just like Yang Di buckled him in the first half, he also kicked the ground and exploded, jumping up in an instant.

Howard's arms were raised in the air, and he felt himself completely shake off Yang Di, and he had a premonition of how amazing the dunk would be this time, winning the applause of the house.

He slammed the ball down!

But at this time, a big hand suddenly appeared on the route he buckled, and it just happened to completely press the surface of the other side of the basketball.

"How is this possible!"

Howard had only one last impression in his mind, and then a force too great to resist came, snatching the ball out of his hand.

Howard landed on both feet, his center of gravity was unsteady, and one stumbled to the ground.

Yang Di also fell down like a god, still holding the basketball he had just lifted in his hand, tilting his head, looking at him with a smile, and said coldly: "Give you a suggestion, don't play singles in a low position in the future, it's embarrassing." ”

Howard's face burned all of a sudden, and the audience was shocked by Yang Di's cap.

It wasn't until Yang Di passed the ball to Richardson that Richardson remembered that it was time to break fast, and at this time, the whole stadium burst into cheers like gravel through gold, and the fans shouted Yang Di's name, which was ignited in an instant.

"Rookie, welcome to the NBA!" Everyone shouted, no matter what champion you are or not, in front of Yang Di, you will be suppressed.
