Francis shook his head, Howard's low-post skills are far worse than Yao Ming, last season in Houston, Yao Ming, who has gained weight, has been able to eat 80% of the league's interior line in the low post, and basically does not encounter help defense, the shooting rate can be maintained at a very high level. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Francis's view, there are two problems with Howard's footsteps, one is that his steps are too routine, if he can deceive the defenders in the first shot, it is fine, if he can't deceive the defenders, he is very likely to be oppressed by the defenders, and the second is that there is no feint when the last shot is up, and fifty percent of the interior lines in the league are extremely easy to be shaken off when defending, leaving only so cunning or huge players who often stand up and block.

At the end of the day, it's still too young to learn more.

The first thing in front of the magic is how to restrain the warriors who have been provoked by Yang Di to completely gain momentum.

After Richardson's fast-break layup, the Warriors trailed by just one point at 98-99.

Francis took a deep breath and made a pull gesture at Mobley, then leaned over, dribbled across his legs, and looked his eyes directly at Richardson, who was defending him.

Both of them are representatives of the Flyers in the league, and they are both in charge of the ball in their respective teams today, and the duel has also attracted some attention.

Francis dribbled even better, swinging the basketball back and forth with his long arms under his crotch.

Shoulders to the right, Francis stepped out with his right foot, dribbled behind his back to his left hand, and then exchanged the ball with his right hand in succession, and suddenly his calf kicked the ground, bursting with speed, and breaking diagonally to the right.

Richardson's lateral movement ability has always been average, but this time the defense was very good, and he got stuck on one side of his body, and he retreated inside against him.

Youngdy let go of Howard's defense and moved his feet between Francis, Richardson, and the basket.

"Keep up!" Magic head coach Johnny yelled.

The Warriors were all staring closely, and Francis stopped the ball and stood with no room to shoot.

After a two-second pause, Mobley retreated to an almost midfield position, Francis threw the ball out, and then Mobley received the basketball.

Francis came out to catch the ball again, and at the top of the arc, Tony Barty made a pick-and-roll for him.

Single-block cover shot, missed.

Under the basket, Yang Di jumped up, grabbed the basketball with one hand, and then landed steadily in the restricted area, blocking Howard's chest with one hand.

Howard was helpless, Yang Di's card position skills were better than Yang Di's, and his strength was stronger, and it was difficult for him to grab frontcourt rebounds in front of him.

The Warriors attack in the frontcourt, Richardson splits the ball to Fisher, and Fisher passes back to Richardson.

Richardson waved at Yang Di, who moved over to make a block for him.

At that moment, he suddenly activated, dribbling at great speed and taking a step.

"Toot ~"

The referee's whistle sounded, Richardson was slightly stunned, and subconsciously continued to make a three-step layup, but at this time everyone did not move, he played tricks, wrapped the ball around his body and threw it into the sky.

Turning his head, the referee rolled his arms and made a walking gesture.

"Blind." Richardson rolled his eyes, he can't do anything about this kind of blowing, in the NBA, the first step of the ball carrier and dribbling is always a category that can be blown or not blown, and many players are used to playing like this all their lives.

The two sides then played a few rounds without scoring and fell into a more anxious situation.

It wasn't until 3 minutes and 29 seconds that Francis broke through and made a feint to change hands in the air against Yang Di, causing Yang Di's foul.

It was Young's third foul of the game, and Francis walked to the free throw line.

With both free throws, the Magic led 101-98.

As if they had received a signal from each other, the Magic started to score, and the Warriors immediately began to score, and Dunleavy hit a three-pointer to tie the score at 101-101.

The competition has entered its most critical stage.

Francis still wanted to ask for a block, but after blocking, Yang Di's defense was very aggressive, and he combined with Richardson to directly form a pack.

Francis had no choice but to take it out, and after passing it back to Mobley, Yang Di withdrew to the penalty area.

After a few final shifts, Mobley simply broke through, with a quicker pace, past Fisher's defense, and then hit a jumper from outside the free throw line.

103 to 101.

The Warriors attacked, and Yang Di covered Fisher.

Fisher broke through to the elbow zone with the ball and immediately transferred to Richardson at the top of the arc.

The torn Magic defense gave Richardson a chance, and Richardson stepped inside, striding straight away from Francis.

Because of the change in the defensive rules this season, no arm-to-arm contact defense is more beneficial for outside players to break through.

Richardson went inside, the Warriors contracted their defense, and Yang Di cut inside, which instantly attracted a lot of attention from the Magic, and Fisher instead went out to get an open opportunity.

Richardson passes back, and Fisher makes a three-point jumper. Also hits.

104 to 103.

The back and forth of your offense made the audience addicted, and Fisher's three points at the critical moment directly detonated the Oakland Arena.

The cheering of the audience became even louder.

Howard was very active in blocking and dismantling, but it was in vain to not receive the ball down, and the Magic missed the attack twice, and at 1 minute and 13 seconds, the Warriors passed the ball to Yang Di.

Yang Di received the ball in the middle range and shook Howard.

Howard didn't move, and Yang Di unceremoniously pulled up, raised his arms, and held the shot high.

"It's another mid-shot at a critical moment!" The fans exclaimed, the praise is greater than the derogatory, and it is no surprise that Yang Di dared to take responsibility for his shooting behavior at a critical moment.

Yang Di, who didn't shoot much in the middle distance throughout the game, shot like this, and Howard was suddenly taken aback, and he didn't have time to jump, so he could only reach out and interfere.

"Huh!"

With an arrow piercing the heart, Yang Di happily maintained a shooting posture and retreated to defend, and the audience erupted in cheers, and applause rang out in all directions.

The Magic asked for a timeout, and Howard was even more depressed.

"How did he get hit?" Howard was puzzled, how could Yang Di have such a soft feel with such a strong strength? The key is that in the previous game, Yang Di did not shoot in the middle distance, most of the time he fought with him on the inside, and suddenly shot in the middle of the shot, who knows how to defend!

"He is such a player, in fact, his mid-range shooting rate is not low, but in his shooting tendency, the proportion of mid-range shooting is not large, and Chinese players are very accurate." Tony Barty smiled wryly, thinking that this was even worse.

After returning from the timeout, the Magic arranged a flank cover tactic.

Francis rushed in under Howard's cover, but Yang Di waited there early, like an eagle catching prey, intercepting Francis in the air.

Even if it is a macho man who participates in the slam dunk contest, under the absolute difference in height, the layup has obviously changed the technical action.

In a weird position, he hit the back edge of the basket.

Murphy stuck to Howard, and the baseline was actually grabbed by Fisher who bounced far away.

Yang Di's heart was pounding wildly, was the S-level task really going to be completed like this?

The time goes into less than a minute.

The Warriors were in no hurry to attack, and Fisher was clear-headed and slowly controlled the ball on the outside.

Yang Di made a shot at a critical moment just now, and this time he was not embarrassed to continue to ask for the ball to shoot, and ran out to block Fisher.

Fisher motioned for him to block Richardson, and then "irresponsibly" distributed the ball to Richardson at 45 degrees.

Richardson was also embarrassed, at the critical moment of this game, a Fisher's three-pointer and a Jandy's two-pointer were not scored by him, and in this league where heroism is prevalent, it is a bit of a loss of the boss's name.

So this one, he had to attack it himself.

Yang Di's blocking allowed him to shake off Francis's defense and face Howard directly, Howard was too close to the line this time, and as soon as Yang Di turned his back, he formed a misplaced situation against Francis.

At this time, Richardson's pass to Yang Di was also a good opportunity, but Richardson thought about coming by himself.

Small and big are also misplaced.

So he dribbled two dribbles under his crotch, and the cross-step turned to rush inside, and as soon as Howard moved his center of gravity, Richardson stopped his body and almost stepped on the three-point line to shoot two points.

"Bell!" If you don't hit, it's even more embarrassing.

That undoubtedly gave the Magic another chance, and they still had two more rounds to play with 40 seconds of offensive time.

It's a pity that the magic didn't give it a lot at the critical moment, and Francis actually handed the ball to the veteran Tony Barty when he was seen dead, who turned around against Murphy for a layup, and was slapped out of the bottom line by Yang Di, who moved quickly to help defend him.

Yang Di got his 9th block, and his fans were crazy.

Such a deterrent was too terrifying, and the Magic outside line who came back from the pause tried to project, although it was an empty shot after the break, but Mobley still failed to take the opportunity.

The rebound was protected by Yang Di, and the Magic team took an early foul.

Yang Di hit one of two free throws, less than 20 seconds, and a four-point lead was enough.

Then the Magic didn't have a three-point shot from the outside, Francis missed a two-point jumper from the back, and the rebound was allocated to Murphy by Youngdy, and the Magic fouled Murphy.

Murphy hit both free throws, and the Magic lost hope.

In the end, the Warriors narrowly defeated the Magic 109-106 at home, and the Magic failed to seize the opportunity at the critical moment, otherwise the outcome would be unpredictable.

Yang Di became the best player in the game, he got a quasi-triple-double of 18 points, 17 rebounds and 9 blocks, while Howard only had 6 points, 8 rebounds and 1 block, and the gap between the two was obvious.

Francis scored 36 points and left the arena in reluctance.

Before leaving, he shook hands with Yang Di very friendly.

"You are as good as Yao Ming, and you China are good at making big men."

Yang Di raised his eyebrows and said triumphantly: "It's not all big men, you see that my playing style is more like a small forward, and it will be difficult to play on the outside in the future." ”

Francis laughed and was amused by Yang Di's words: "Does the small forward get 9 blocks in a game?" Yang, you are really interesting, and Yao Ming's personality is completely different! ”

"What kind of personality is Yao Ming?"

"Yao Ming is more humble and friendly, but sometimes he is tough, and you are covered with spikes, flamboyant and not afraid of anyone, I like you very much."

"I like you too, Steve, we Chinese fans call you 'Boss Ford'. ”
