Chapter 41 Grizzlies vs. Magic

".Let us welcome~~~~Magic team. Howard.!"

".Let's welcome~~~~Grizzlies. Yang Zhan!"

"I'm today's commentator Kenny Smith, and I'm Sir Barkley. Today, the two of us will explain the Grizzlies vs. Magic game." Two TNT commentators introduced themselves before the game started.

"Before the game, let us start the starting lineup of both sides, the starting lineup of the away team Grizzlies."

"The starting point guard of the Grizzlies I think everyone is very familiar with. He is the youngest triple-double Mr. Yang Zhan. The starting center is the team's head star Paul Gasol."

Kenny Smith introduced the Grizzlies' starting lineup.

"Next let's look at the starting lineup for the Magic at home."

"Starting point guard: Steve Francis, shooting guard: Jameer Nelson, small forward: Grant Hill, power forward: Hedo Turkoglu, center: Dwight Howard."

Barkley introduced the starting lineup of the Magic.

"The good game started. Both sides jumped the ball, and the Magic won the first attack. I have to say that this top high school student last season was able to average a double-double in the rookie stage. Looking at the jumping height just now, this is really a talent that is visible to the naked eye." Kenny Smith said.

At this time, the Magic had launched their first offense. Facing Francis who was holding the ball, Yang Zhan let him go. His three-point shooting percentage was only 25.7%, not even 30%.

After Francis dribbled the ball twice, he directly relied on his speed to force Yang Zhan, but unfortunately, he was no longer the old boss of Fern, and he forced his shot without throwing Yang Zhan away, boom!Missed, Gasol protected the backboard.

Yang Zhan, who received a pass from Gasol, took the ball across the half court, and before Gasol was in position, Yang Zhan made a dry shot against Francis from beyond the arc top three-point line.

"Hey! This ball is unreasonable, brush, three-pointer, strike, this ball has to be played like this!" Of course, Zhang He of Tianchao understood.

As for why Yang Zhan dared to vote like this.

It was the Magic's turn to attack. Grant Hill held the ball and faced the defender Shane Battier. He swayed left and right and made two moves to pass Battier, attracting Lorenzen White's double-team.

Then a clean point was given to power forward Hedo Turkoglu outside the three-point line, and he was not relentless when he opened up.

brush!Three-pointer, although he is a power forward, his three-pointer is very accurate, averaging 3.6 shots per game, and his shooting percentage is as high as 40.6%. He is a standard space-based power forward.

When it was the Grizzlies' turn to attack, Yang Zhan was at the top of the arc, calling the No. 4 pick-and-roll. Using a simple pick-and-roll, he made another shot from outside the three-point line. Boom, swipe!This shot hit the back half of the basket, but it still made a hit!

"Oh! Two three-pointers. These two goals are not easy. It seems that Yang Zhan feels hot at the beginning. This is not a second for the Magic." Kenny said with a mean face.

When it was the Magic's turn to attack, Francis waved his hand and asked Howard to come up for the pick-and-roll. He suddenly threw the ball into the air after two steps forward.

This made Yang Zhan instantly judge that this must not be a throw, the distance is too far, then, boom!really.

"Alley-oop, look at this physical fitness, look at this jumping height, I'm sure this guy will definitely be an All-Star in the future." Barkley said excitedly, and Kenny also agreed with this point.

Easy side to fight again Yang Zhan held the ball to the left 45° to signal his teammates to pull away. Facing Francis' defense, Yang Zhan continued to dribble and advance a little bit.

Entering the position of 2 meters from the three-point line, relying on his height and wingspan, he suddenly made a pull-up jumper and scored 2 points.

Throughout the first quarter, Francis was basically killed by Yang Zhan, and Yang Zhan's current style of play was basically Kobe's style of play, but seeing Yang Zhan's successive hits, Nelson also temporarily gave up the urge to kill him.

But the head coach of the Magic couldn't bear it and replaced Francis directly, even keeping him on the bench in the second quarter.

In fact, Yang Zhan knew that this season was the beginning of Francis's complete trough. He was an All-Star last season, and it was hard for him to imagine that his fall would be so sudden.

This season, Brian Hill replaced Davis as the magic coach, and the core of the magic team has also become Dwight Howard.

Jamal Nelson gradually performed better than Francis at the point guard position, and Francis seemed to have completely lost his enthusiasm for the game since then.

As the whistle blew halftime ended, the score was 47:44, and the Grizzlies led by three points, of which Yang Zhan scored 30 points alone.

However, at the end of halftime, the score did not open. Today's Magic team seems to feel good except for Francis.

Today's Howard has also begun to show the style of Warcraft in the later generations. He has already picked up 3 offensive rebounds in halftime.
