Chapter 130
In the second quarter, Jonny maintained his fiery touch after playing, and the score between the two sides was an astonishing 72:70, with the Magic leading by two points.

This is a big score. The two teams had an offensive battle in the first half, and the defense that the two teams valued very much originally, they didn't play a single one. The Magic's Johnny scored 24 points in the half. , Anfernee Hardaway scored 15 points and 8 assists in the half.As for the Heat, there were more blooming points. After halfway through the game, 4 players scored in double figures. Tim Hardaway scored 18 points, Alonzo Mourning scored 12 points, Jamal Mashburn scored 11 points, and the substitute Dan Marley, who played, also scored 10 points in a fiery state.
There are also many problems for the two teams. The problem for the Magic is that, except for Anfernee Hardaway, who was shot by the Heat, and Jonny, who is in hot form, no one can stand up and score.The problem with the Heat is that they can't guard Johnny at all.Therefore, during the intermission, the two teams began to arrange for the second half in full swing.

"We have to strengthen our defense in the second half. We need to cut off their passing lanes. We didn't do this well in the first half. Tim Hardaway passed a lot of good balls. In the second half, we must lock Tim Harda. Wei's pass. We want to win! In the third quarter, crush them in the third quarter! Pocket the victory in advance!" Richie Adubatu said with some enthusiasm.

Jonny nodded appreciatively in his heart, Rich has made progress, he has learned to be inspiring!

The Heat's offense in the first half can be said to rely on Tim Hardaway's scoring. Even when the commentators explained the Heat's offensive rounds, they kept saying the same sentence: "Tim Hardaway's pass, xxx directly shot Go in!" So the adjustment of the Magic is also very simple, which is to lock Tim Hardaway's passing route and let Tim Hardaway fall into individual singles.

The Magic played differently from the Heat in the first half. They locked Anfernee Hardaway's pass and did a good job, but Jonny's countless individual singles in the first half directly destroyed the Heat. Meticulous defense helped the Magic stabilize the situation.In other words, if Jonny doesn't get back to his state, the Magic will fall behind by a big score at halftime in this game.

"The break ended, the two sides came back on the court, the two teams played big numbers in the first half, it's not like a playoff game, but I think the two teams want to draw a winner. , It depends on who of them finds their defensive state first. The Heat are currently attacking, and Tim Hardaway has the ball outside the three-point line. In these two games, Tim Hardaway and Alonzo Mourning played very much. A lot, Tim Hardaway has played the first two quarters of this game, but Pat Riley doesn't want him to rest yet."

"Tim Hardaway has the ball, facing Doug Christie's defense. The Magic have been using Doug Christie to dislocate Tim Hardaway in these two games, but the effect is mediocre."

"Tim Hardaway! He passed Doug Christie, but there was something strange on the Magic side. Marcus Camby didn't come to defend, he just watched Tim Hardaway take a shot from one step inside the free throw line. Remember the short-range shot, the ball went in! The Heat tied the game at the beginning, 72:72! The Magic's defense seems to be the same!"

Doug Christie was passed by Tim Hardaway, but the Magic didn't find it strange. Doug Christie, who is 2 meters tall, has the only advantage when defending Tim Hardaway, who is 1 meters tall, because of his height. In the game, everyone can see Tim Hardaway passing Doug Christie with speed again and again, but Doug Christie's role is also obvious, that is, using his long arms to interfere with Tim Hardaway's sight .

And then, the Magic's offense.

"Jonnie Lee! Another one-on-one, he's running to the hoop, the whistle blows, Alonzo Mourning's foul, and the ball goes in! It's his 26th point, and Jonny looks excited, he's thrashing Own breasts!"

Jonny resolutely rushed into the penalty area and made Mourning a foul. Johnny himself didn't expect this goal, so he seemed very excited.

Standing on the free throw line, making a steady hit and adding a penalty, and successfully hitting a three-pointer, the Magic regained a 3-point lead.

And then, the Heat's offense, Tim Hardaway rushed into the three-point line again, and he didn't find the opportunity to pass the ball again, because the Magic players still didn't double-team him, everyone marked the player they should mark, every step not leave.Tim Hardaway couldn't find a chance, so he had to come again by himself.But just after he hesitated for a while, Doug Christie followed up and interfered with Tim Hardaway's shot, which actually missed.

The Magic's offense was still very smooth, and the Heat still couldn't find a way to deal with the fiery Jonny. Jonny's individual singles tore the Heat's defense line again and again, and the point difference began to gradually widen.And Tim Hardaway faced Doug Christie, who had been desperately defending, and his hand began to feel abnormal, and he missed several consecutive shots.

When Jonny forced a three-pointer in the face of Dan Marley's defense, the point difference came to 15 points, and just 4 minutes later in the third quarter, the commentator on the sidelines couldn't help exclaiming: "The Heat are going to It collapsed, the Magic defended against the Heat several times in a row, and the point difference has come to 15 points, if the Heat don’t make adjustments, this game will be closed.”

Sure enough, at the moment the commentator had just finished speaking, Pat Riley called a timeout.

Pat Riley was obviously in a hurry. This game, originally according to his idea, was just like the previous game, letting Anfernee Hardaway fall into a solo fight. This was a success for the Heat, but another point was ignored by the Heat. , Jonny Lee broke out, he unexpectedly started individual singles, and the Heat didn't have a player who could stop Jonny.

But now, the point difference has come to 15 points. Although Pat Riley is anxious, he also knows that on-the-spot adjustments cannot save the Heat. All he can do now is to change his strategy, so he arranged: "We will play like this." , Attack with all your strength, don’t worry about defense! Attack! Attack! Attack again!”

However, Pat Riley had no choice but to use this move. For the rest of the game, the Heat launched a desperate attack, but the effect was very poor. The sound of the Heat striking iron, and the Magic also won the game by relying on Jonny's continuous output.

At the moment the game ended, the commentator began to sing praises for Jonny, the biggest hero of the Magic's victory in this game: "The game is over, and Jonny scored 56 points. This is Jonny Lee's personal postseason victory He almost beat the Heat alone, and his 56 points are tied with Wilt Chamberlain in 1962, Michael Jordan in 1992 and Charles Barkley in 1994 for the most in a single playoff game. The third place in the scoring record. The top two are Michael Jordan in 1986, who scored 63 points, but that was scored in two overtimes. The second place is Elgin Baylor, who Got 61 points."
