This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 277 Eagles—A Lian, are you playing me?
Larry Brown is not a "biological clock coach" in the traditional sense. No matter how well you play, he will replace you on time and at the right time, especially when the Charlotte Bobcats are at the fifth position. Without a stable starter, Yi Jianlian got more opportunities.

Of course, not all the advantages, Yi Jianlian also exposed his shortcomings in the following time. His shooting is a bit slow at the NBA level, and the speed of taking the ball from below the abdomen to the top of the head is not fast. As a result, the defensive player Cornett Lee, who was 2 sizes smaller than him, directly dropped the ball.

Moreover, in the third quarter, the continuous impact of several guards of the Magic team also caused Yi Jianlian to get fouled consecutively, and was replaced by Larry Brown again. Zhou Lin also mentioned this matter to Yi Jianlian in the rest area. The player's hands are too fast. It's good that Howard can't defend at all. If he encounters a center player who moves a little faster, the UAE will lose many offensive opportunities.

In the third quarter of the game, the Charlotte Bobcats did not play well. Today's Warcraft Howard really feels like a man blocking a killing Buddha. Among the three major players on the inside, Okafor fouled four times, Roy Hibbert fouled four times, Yi Jianlian fouled three times, Howard has already made 15 free throws in this game, and the free throws in this game feel pretty good, 15 of 11, and the shooting percentage exceeds 7%. The average free throw percentage of 60% is also the second highest level in his career, and other people's free throw percentages are on the rise, but Dwight Howard's free throws are the kind that become more inaccurate with practice.

77-70, the Charlotte Bobcats trailed by 7 points and entered the fourth quarter. Roy Hibbert got a foul on Howard at the beginning of the game. He had no fouls, and he was beaten by Howard. No, Howard didn't show any sympathy for the rookie Hibbert. Even when Hibbert walked down, he shouted loudly: The NBA is not as simple as you think, rookie.

The current Roy Hibbert has not hung too much flesh. For a player like Warcraft Howard who has developed super upper body strength and does not have good defensive habits, he was firmly taught a lesson.

5 fouls, 4 points and 3 rebounds but 3 turnovers, Roy Hibbert seems to have been beaten back to the original.

In the first three quarters, Zhou Lin only scored 9 points and 5 assists. He chose to give up more possessions. Brandon Roy and Yi Jianlian, who made his debut today, made Zhou Lin willing to take the most dazzling stage And the time was transferred to them. Brandon Roy has scored 19 points and 4 assists at the moment, and Yi Jianlian also has 8 points and 5 rebounds.

But in the fourth quarter, Larry Brown asked Zhou Lin to strengthen his personal offense. This was also Zhou Lin's plan. The suppressive firepower broke out in the fourth quarter. The large double-double of rebounds has been accounted for, how can Zhou Lin be willing to be second.

At 8 minutes and 23 seconds, Zhou Lin first made a fake breakthrough and snaked into the inside of the Magic. Under the watchful eyes of Warcraft Howard, he put the ball into the basket, and then directly shot a three-pointer from the outside. JJ. Redick gave a ruthless hat, and then the Chinese fans also ushered in the most anticipated scene, the dunk dunk by the 'Zhouyi' combination.

Yi Jianlian finally had the opportunity to perform a dunk!
This night, the basket of the Charlotte Bobcats was about to be broken by Warcraft Howard. He alone had dunked 7 times, but the Charlotte Bobcats did not have a single dunk until Yi Jianlian Completed the alley-oop with Zhou Lin!
"Okay, the UAE has also scored in double figures, with 10 points and 5 rebounds. This is almost the same as the average per game before the Atlanta Hawks were not injured."

"It's also thanks to Zhou Lin, I passed a lot of balls to my compatriots today."

"That also requires Yi Jianlian to be able to grasp it. Look at Roy Hibbert, it's not that Zhou Lin didn't give the ball today, but his inside skills are really rough."

Even if Yi Jianlian doesn't have any brilliant operations, he can score at least 80 points in this first show.

Yi Jianlian also fully demonstrated his characteristics in front of his new club. He has impact, outside shooting, and rebounding ability is above the average NBA level. His own height and jumping also prove that Yi Jianlian can protect the frame. bear a certain role.

For the operation of sending away a marginalized Boris Dior in exchange for Yi Jianlian, it is completely guaranteed to make money!

However, Yi Jianlian failed to grasp the two chances he got afterwards, and according to the coach's tactics, Zhou Lin could no longer play back.

As the team's only All-Star player, the team is in a backward situation, and it is absolutely necessary to come out to carry.

With about 3 points remaining in the game, Zhou Lin's two consecutive three-pointers made the fans in Orlando's Amway Center Arena very upset.

Now Zhou Lin, although the score has reached the lowest in his career, but other than the score, other statistics have reached the highest in his career. Among them, the three-point shooting percentage has exceeded 40%, plus 54% shooting percentage, and 87% If he can maintain his free throw percentage, he will definitely be able to enter the 180 club!

93-94，夏洛特山猫队比赛还剩下2分23秒的时候，追到只差1分了。

And Warcraft's score has already broken 40. Of course, it can be stalemate. It is also because the Orlando Magic's outside line is really not good. Turkoglu's 10-for-2 and Lewis' 12-for-3 are a pair of undercover crouching dragons and phoenixes. Hina, I'm going to lose this game, I'm afraid the monster Howard's lungs will explode.

Of course, the crisis for the Charlotte Bobcats now is that the three main inside players, Roy Hibbert and Emeka Okafor, all fouled five times, and Yi Jianlian also fouled four times. At this point in time, he was afraid to use O'Bryant, who hadn't played for a minute.

Looking back, after the Magic team made a complete run and formed a high and low position, they scored and played. Sharad Lewis, who made 7 of 1 three-pointers in this game, hit a key three-pointer !
In an instant, the score came to a 4-point difference.

Although this is just a regular season, the outcome is very important, because the Charlotte Bobcats are doing well this season and have become one of the strong teams in the Eastern Conference. Last year's opponent in the Eastern Conference semifinals was also the Orlando Magic this year. One of the imaginary opponents, this kind of game, the Magic team does not want to lose, after all, in the playoffs, they will have more confidence in the meeting.

The time is within 2 minutes, and the current situation is not very favorable for the Charlotte Bobcats.

"Teaming!"

Now Zhou Lin is feeling hot. The head coach of the Magic, Van Gundy, is yelling at the players to double-team. Cornett Lee and Sharad Lewis are no longer willing to give Zhou Lin any chance to make a move. up.

Zhou Lin gave Mike Dunleavy on the outside. Mike Dunleavy missed a three-pointer, but at this moment a yellow figure appeared, and Yi Jianlian, who had judged the precise landing point, turned into Taiyi and smashed the ball into the basket. !
"Nice job!"

The bench of the Charlotte Bobcats is also boiling, and this ball is too morale-boosting.

95-97, there is still a gap of 2 points!

Warcraft Howard played hard inside, and Okafor basically didn't dare to make big moves. He could only watch Howard put the ball into the basket, and Howard turned around and wanted to foul the referee. After all, as long as there is another foul, Okafor will end up!

The Bobcats failed to respond in the fastest time, and Brandon Roy's mid-range shot also missed.

Turkoglu tried a three-pointer from the outside for the third time, but failed to hit it, 99-95, and the game entered the final minute.

With a gap of 4 points, if you don't score in this round and you are hit in the next round, then the game will basically be taken away.

It was Zhou Lin who stood up, faced the pincers, and used the pick-and-roll to find a little chance to make a shot. Unfortunately, he stepped on the line and only scored two points.

99-97!

Big Van Gundy roared loudly, but the players on the Magic team really tried their best.

Going back to the positional battle on the side of the Magic team, the Magic team upholds two strategies. One is to try to run out of round time, and the other is to give the ball to Howard, who has already scored 42 points. The number of player fouls has reached the line.

Now the Bobcats are letting Yi Jianlian, who made the fourth offense, to defend Warcraft. In fact, Yi Jianlian defended well in the first round. Nearly 24 seconds later, Warcraft's shot knocked out of the frame, but the rebound from the second jump was not Being picked up by World of Warcraft, Yi Jianlian had no choice but to pay for his fifth personal foul. Fortunately, he was not marked as 2+1!

Warcraft Howard, who made more than [-]% of his free throws in this game, missed the first free throw and made one of the last two free throws.

100-97!

There are only 19 seconds left.

There are a lot of options for falling behind by 3 points when the time is still sufficient. Among them, the three-point shooting and the foul after the quick two-pointer are all optional, but the first one is naturally a better choice to tie directly.

Zhou Lin, who scored 10 points in a single quarter in this quarter, will naturally become the top priority of the Magic's defensive options, so Larry Brown chose option two, Brandon Roy, Roy in this game The performance is not bad, and there is a chance of heads-up, the success rate is not low.

It's just that Yi Jianlian's serve almost made a mistake, which made Larry Brown feel a little dissatisfied. He could only use up the last precious timeout.

The second substitution served, Zhou Lin went to serve, Yi Jianlian went outside the three-point line to catch the ball with a high point, handed it to Zhou Lin, Zhou Lin pretended to kill inside and immediately attracted double-teams, and the ball was given to a Brandon Roy on the side, Brandon Roy singled out JJ Redick to occupy the height advantage, but unfortunately the three-pointer with a retreat missed, Zhou Lin stuck Howard half-body at the critical moment, Emeka Okafor took the ball and gave it to Brandon Roy. At this moment, all Magic players rushed to Brandon Roy. Seeing this, Roy could only pass the ball to Yi Jianlian at 45° .

Time is running out!

"Yi, vote!"

Larry Brown shouted at the top of his voice.

Now all the attention is on Zhou Lin and Roy, and Yi Jianlian has become a neglected point. Yi Jianlian's shot is not fast, but the Orlando Magic team is too late.

Yi Jianlian arced a [-]-pointer—and landed firmly in the basket.

"I love you, Yi!"

Larry Brown raised his hands high. He gave Yi Jianlian a face when he made a mistake in the last round, but this time, he fell in love with this Chinese insider who can shoot three-pointers.

100-100!

With 0.9 seconds left in the time, the Orlando Magic requested a timeout. It is not that they did not kill their opponents in 0.9 seconds.

But Larry Brown, who was already prepared, let Roy Hibbert and Yi Jianlian form a twin tower to hinder the opponent's lob.

The game enters overtime!
The surprise Yi Jianlian brought to the Chinese people was not over yet. In the first round of overtime, Yi Jianlian helped the team take the lead with a high jumper.

It's a pity that Yi Jianlian's supplementary defense was fouled by Cornett Lee.

Six offenders leave!

17 points, 7 rebounds and 2 block!

And staged a perfect ball!

The Charlotte Bobcats showed no mercy in overtime. Although Dwight Howard scored 47 points, 15 rebounds and 3 blocks in the end, the stubborn Bobcats still won the game.

107-105!

Of course, I also want to thank the opponent for his outside touch today. The three-point shooting rate of 19 of 4 from the outside line is also so that Warcraft Howard can't help it!
周林本场比赛得到21分9助攻8篮板1封盖，布兰登.罗伊得到23分7篮板3助攻，易建联17分7篮板2封盖！

"It's just a game, and it's my first game with a new team. As a player, I just follow the coach's deployment, but the atmosphere and team of the Charlotte Bobcats make me play more comfortable. , I will work harder in the next game, and I can complete 100% integration with the Bobcats as soon as possible."

After the game, a large number of reporters flocked to Yi Jianlian. As the first show, Yi Jianlian scored 99 points in this wave, leaving only 1 point for improvement. Yi Jianlian himself replied humbly to the media people in a very low-key manner.

"I'm very happy!" Larry Brown laughed and said, "We have found a baby, Yi, and he is also an all-round insider. He can play singles inside and can also pull out shots. His shooting range is terrifying. There are cloth players in our team. Landon and Zhou are two great dominant players, and an insider who can shoot indiscriminately is very in line with the current team's plan. It can only be said that the people of Atlanta are mistaken."

Larry Brown did not hesitate to praise Yi Jianlian.

"Unfortunately, it's too late for them to regret it!"

This season, the Charlotte Bobcats will also meet the Atlanta Hawks in the Southwest Division twice, one home and one away, which means that Yi Jianlian and Boris Diaw will play another round against their former clubs.

coincidentally.

Now the Charlotte Bobcats and the Atlanta Hawks are ranked fourth and fifth in the Eastern Conference, with only one game difference between the two teams.

The fifth-placed Atlanta Hawks lead the Chicago Bulls by more than three games.

The Charlotte Bobcats are 3.5 games behind the third-place Magic.

In other words, the top three in the East form the first echelon of the East.

The Bobcats and Eagles in the middle formed a separate second echelon, and the other teams competed for the remaining three playoff spots. According to this situation, the two teams are likely to meet in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. had a direct conversation.
