Chapter 486 Zero to Two, Magic in Desperation

McGrady is not a very ambitious person. He came to Orlando at the beginning, but he came for Grant Hill. What’s more, he didn’t want to live in the shadow of his cousin Carter forever, because the cheap cousin who grew up in a well-to-do family has always been a child of other people. Every time he heard these things, Tracy’s heart was very complicated, so leaving Toronto was actually a helpless choice.Of course, if he continues to stay there, maybe he won't be the current scoring champion.

But McGrady really doesn’t care about these things personally. Among those Duncan and Hill who teamed up with him, one didn’t play a few games with him at all, and he watched the drinking fountain to recuperate his injuries every day.

It's a pity that there is no if. Tracy is really sad. Although he has no ambitions, he doesn't want to lose. No one wants to let his sweat flow for nothing. The most reliable teammate around him is Kemp, who signed with a basic salary. .

So during the previous regular season, when the rumors that the Magic wanted to trade reached McGrady's ears, besides being angry, he was more relieved and delighted. McGrady really didn't like to stay in the most impersonal team in the NBA.

However, the deal failed in the end. It would be a good idea to go to the Bay Area to partner with Li Lei's compatriot, and the Bay Area is much better than Orlando in all aspects. Although Orlando has Disneyland, it has something to do with the Magic.

In the other few matchups, the team with the home court advantage also won, and there were no major upsets.

And before the start of the second game, the NBA draft lottery also started. The Cavaliers lived up to expectations and won the No. [-] pick. Li Lei laughed when he saw the news. If there was nothing tricky in it, Li Lei would not believe it.

And the third pick is the Knicks, and the general manager of the Knicks, Scott Layden, is interested in both Anthony and Milicic. Anyway, the potential of these two people is higher than that of last year's McDunleavy, who is the third pick. Yao Ming and Jay Williams, and looking at themselves, both came from the top talent show, the gap is really big.

Klaus took this second pick and began to study who to choose, because Artest is leaving this summer. Although Butler can be promoted, he is still a little weak at the small forward position. Anthony is the hottest existence in NCAA today. He is like Li Lei two seasons ago, and Milicic, a big man from Europe, is also a rare gem. rebounds, and shooting needs to be practiced, another style of play may not be much better than Randolph and Rashid.

Klaus hesitated. The Bulls ushered in the second contest with the Magic on April 4. Rivers made adjustments in this game. He swapped Gordon Girisek's position with Tracy McGrady. Camp and Andrew De Klerk partnered.

It was no longer Jackie Vaughn who was facing Li Lei, but Darrell Armstrong, who had been trampled by Li Lei many times during the regular season. Of course, the latter's style of play in this game was very simple. He dribbled the ball past half court, handed the ball to McGrady, and everything was over. McGrady still played very efficiently against Mask Man.

In this game, McGrady was also very hot. He scored another 20 points in the halftime. Li Lei scored 14 points and 10 assists. His performance was not bad at all. Mask Man also scored 12 points in the halftime. The Magic's McGrady alone can't stand the Bulls.

But the only thing that makes Hedocument happy is that the Magic's insiders still have an absolute advantage so far in this game. After all, the tonnage of Kemp and Andrew De Klerk is there. Rashid relies on his IQ to defend.

But the Magic's bench is still very hip. Ginobili and Caron Butler are like two sharp knives. Randolph also bullies the Magic in various ways.

But he is a human being, not a god. No matter how powerful he is, it is impossible to fight five-on-one, especially after Tracy McGrady rests, the Magic's offense suddenly collapsed, and the Bulls got a chance to score points directly.Drew Gooden didn't have any advantage against Randolph on the bench. He knew what Randolph could do, and he didn't know what Randolph could do. Compared with the opponent, his only advantage was his age.

McGrady scored 46 points in this game, and the total score of the two games was close to 90 points, while the total score of the Magic in the two games was only more than 180 points. McGrady scored half of the Magic's points alone, but this did not allow them to win the away game, because the Bulls scored in double figures with 7 players, and Li Lei got 30 points and 19 assists.

Losing the game again, McGrady and the Magic staff didn't know what to say at all. There seemed to be a big dark cloud covering them in the sky. As for when this dark cloud would leave, no one knew.After falling behind zero to two, it is not so difficult to make a comeback. The Magic pushed themselves to the edge of a cliff, and the next step is the abyss.
