NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

Li Kaiming's desperate three-pointer at the buzzer made Howard stand on the spot. Li Kaiming's goal had been in for several seconds, and the Magic even sent the ball to Arenas. Howard There is still a person standing outside the three-point line with his arms raised high, and the whole person is looking at the direction of the basket like a sculpture...

It wasn't until he was stabbed by Carter passing by that Howard recovered from that state, and then ran to the frontcourt step by step with his head down.

Looking at Howard's dejected look, the fans at the scene felt that Howard was not as passionate as he was at the beginning of the game.

The head coach of the Magic, Stan Van Gundy, as the person who knows Howard best, he can naturally see that Howard did not defend the ball, and his confidence was greatly hit. From the latter's actions, it can be seen that his whole body There is negativity in the language.

If Howard is in such a state in the next game, it will be hard to say the result of tonight's game...

The Magic were attacking. After Arenas came to the frontcourt, he played a pick-and-roll with Howard. He originally planned to wait for the latter to cut to the inside and then make a high pass. Unexpectedly, Howard stood on the outside like a stake after the pick-and-roll.

Arenas is speechless, not buddy, you have no basket, no vision, what are you doing outside?Do you want to watch a play?

Seeing that Howard was unreliable in this round, Arenas gritted his teeth and chose to break through again. In the last round, he used a pick-and-roll to face Li Kaiming, and then successfully scored.

But Li Kaiming wasn't an idiot either, knowing that he couldn't defend against Arenas' breakthrough, he asked his teammates to help defend.

After Arenas broke through to the inside, he found Lewis double-teaming him, and immediately passed the ball to Lewis' opponent Ryan Anderson. The latter caught the ball and shot, but unfortunately he failed to score the wide open opportunity.

Howard realized it later and rushed to the basket belatedly. Li Kaiming took the opportunity to directly grab the backcourt rebound and hand it to Hinrich.

After the Wizards arrived in the frontcourt, Hinrich commanded his teammates to move according to the tactics. The two players in the bottom corner, Nick Young and Lewis, crossed positions, and Li Kaiming was in the middle to help his teammates block the pursuers.

After helping Lewis to block the defender, Li Kaiming quickly mentioned to go up the line and cover for Hinrich.

Both Howard and Arenas began to double-team Li Kaiming, and the latter saw the opportunity to pass the ball without looking, and assigned it to Lewis on the outside.

Lewis swayed with a fake move, attracting Vince Carter to come over to defend, and then passed the ball to Nick Young, who scored two points directly from the middle distance!

54 is better than 47!

The Magic sent the ball to Arenas, who dribbled to the frontcourt, and Carter began to use the screen to run off the ball. After a mess, the Wizards' defense was successfully disrupted by him.

The opportunity came to Vince Carter who ran to the bottom corner. He caught the ball and threw it firmly to win the second three-pointer of the game!

54 is better than 50!

With 1 minutes left in the second quarter, the Wizards attacked, and Hinrich almost played the first half, so when he came to the frontcourt, he directly handed over the ball to Li Kaiming, preparing to catch his breath next to him.

Li Kaiming successfully succeeded Hinrich and became the brain of the team in this round. He signaled the others to pull away and seemed to be singled out Howard, and then suddenly passed the ball to Hinrich. At the same time, he rushed into the penalty area like a lightning bolt. I hadn't been able to concentrate before, but now I'm even more caught off guard.

Li Kaiming successfully broke through to the penalty area. While running towards the basket, he pointed to the sky with his right hand. Hinrich from the outside had a good understanding with him and threw the ball directly to the basket.

Li Kaiming kicked his feet on the ground one step away from the basket, took off with his arms swinging, and grabbed the basketball with both hands at the highest point. Driven by inertia, his body has turned to face the basket at this time, but Li Kaiming didn't panic at all. After swinging the ball counterclockwise in a complete arc with both hands in the air, his body turned his back to the basket completely.

The end point of the arc is exactly the position of the basket. Li Kaiming buckled his wrists towards the basket. When he stuffed the ball into the basket, he also grabbed the basket with both hands. The whole person is like a dexterous golden monkey. hung on it.

56:50.

Of course, Li Kaiming's back buckle is still very powerful, so the buckle is very crisp, and the fans can only hear a crisp bang!

In the commentary seat, Hayward and Rose raised their hands and began to celebrate, "A beautiful back buckle, and Li Kaiming also added a windmill link to the movement. To be honest, this ball has a lot of strength, smoothness, and appreciation. , it is also a perfect goal in the slam dunk contest!"

"Li Kaiming's three-pointer at the buzzer has not passed two rounds, and he scored another wonderful dunk. This guy is simply the top ten harvester. Every time there is a Wizards game, the next day's top ten There will be him on the ball!" Rose said with emotion.

The fans at the scene also stood up and cheered for Li Kaiming's wonderful dunk. Li Kaiming's popularity shot up like a rocket after he entered the league. He is not at the same level as other rookies. Another aspect is his playing style. Whether it is a violent dunk or a chic jumper, he is good at it. His offensive viewing ability is an important factor for his popularity.

The Magic attacked. Arenas dribbled to the frontcourt and then started a pick-and-roll with Howard, attracting a double-team from the Wizards and passing the ball to the latter.

After Howard got the ball, the ball protector pushed Li Kaiming away, and then made a strong attack on the spot.

56 is better than 52!

This goal made Howard regain a little bit of confidence, but the passionate roar after the goal had disappeared from his celebration. He just bowed his head silently and walked to his backcourt, and then Arenas clapped hands.

The Wizards sent the ball to the frontcourt, and there were less than 40 seconds before the end of the game. In this case, Hinrich chose to dribble to the frontcourt by himself, and used the pick-and-roll to make a direct shot from the middle distance. He missed the rebound and was grabbed by Howard. .

The ball seems to be played hastily, but there is no problem. There are still more than 30 seconds before the end of the game. It will definitely consume all the remaining time. Even if it can't be exhausted, I'm afraid there will be less than 10 seconds left.

It is still very difficult to complete a complete offense with a serve from the baseline in 5 seconds, so this offense is equivalent to winning an offensive opportunity for the Wizards.

After the Magic grabbed the rebound, they began to spend time on the perimeter without incident. Arenas dribbled the ball at the center line and waited for the offensive clock to start when there were 9 seconds left.

Howard came out to pick and roll as usual, and Li Kaiming followed. Arenas was still a great threat from the outside, and what this guy likes to do most is to throw this kind of unexpected three-pointer, so he has to guard against it!

Arenas saw that Li Kaiming was relatively defensive on the outside, so he hesitated on the outside, and then suddenly rushed inside and faced Lewis who was defending for a layup.

Lewis interfered just right this time, and actually helped Li Kaiming defend the ball. Li Kaiming returned to the basket to protect the rebound, and then directly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt for the final attack of the first half.

In the commentary seat, Hayward saw Li Kaiming dribble by himself at the end, so he smiled and said to Rose next to him, "Lee must play the last attack by himself this time. Do you think he can play like the buzzer last time?" come in?"

"Dwight's defense is very tough, and with the experience of last time, Lee may not be able to get a shot so easily this time!" Although Ross is very supportive of Li Kaiming, he is not optimistic about the success rate of this attack. After all, Howard But Erlian dpoy.

The audience in the mci center all stood up, and there were still 6 seconds before the end of the first half!

Li Kaiming looked up at the timer. Facing Howard who was defending at the three-point line, he first took a step back slightly, then dribbled the ball and accelerated his charge!

After the half-time contest, Howard had completely let go of his contempt for Li Kaiming and began to correct his defensive mentality.

At this time, seeing Li Kaiming rushing over at full speed, Howard felt a little confused, because he didn't know how Li Kaiming would choose to end this attack.

Under everyone's gaze, Li Kaiming quickly rushed to a position one step away from Howard. Just when everyone thought he would use his speed to break through to the inside, Li Kaiming suddenly slammed on the brakes, and then joined the ball with both hands. Kick your feet on the floor!

The kinetic energy that was originally parallel to the ground was converted into potential energy at the moment of his sudden stop, stored in Li Kaiming's muscles, and then turned back into kinetic energy along the direction of his take-off. The previous run-up made Li Kaiming's take-off higher than usual Not a lot.

Howard didn't expect that Li Kaiming accelerated to shoot outside the three-point line. When he realized it, he could only rely on his own reflexes to subconsciously reach out to influence Li Kaiming's shooting.

But this ball Li Kaiming jumped too high. From the angle of the ball, his shot point has already exceeded the position of the basket, so if the ball is judged from the space position, it should be called "down basket" instead of "Layup"!

Li Kaiming stabilized his figure in the air, then ignored Howard's defense, and gently moved his wrist to make a three-pointer!

59 is better than 52!

"Oh, shit! Even I didn't expect Li to shoot directly from outside the three-point line!" Ross sighed helplessly in the commentary booth, as if he was the one defending Li Kaiming.

The Magic shot directly after serving from the bottom line, and no accidents missed.

At halftime, the Wizards widened the point difference to 7 points.

李凯明半场出战15分钟，11投8中，其中三分球4中3，罚球5中5，得到24分5篮板3助攻，看样子今晚又是一场平平无奇的40+比赛。

The rest of the Wizards also performed very well. Hinrich played the longest time in the starting lineup, almost playing halftime, scoring 8 points, 1 rebound and 5 assists.

Nick Young scored 3 points and 2 rebounds in 9 of 2 outside shots. After Lewis gradually increased his playing time, his statistics began to stabilize. He scored 7 points and 3 rebounds in the half. He was originally not good at rebounding, but when he played with When Li Kaiming was on the court at the same time, the Wizards' rebound protection was ridiculously poor. In desperation, they had to do their best to protect the rebounds. After halftime, the effect was remarkable and they grabbed 3 rebounds.

Sun Yue also showed the results of training after getting the opportunity. After he reduced his possession of the ball, his turnovers were significantly less than at the beginning. Today he only played half a quarter. Although he only made a three-pointer, his efficiency Very high, Sanders praised him for playing well when he was off the court.

Yi Jianlian also performed very well when he came on the bench, but during that period of time, McGee was basically attacking inside. Yi Jianlian's role on the offensive end was mainly to open up space and defend.

Yi Jianlian, the opponent's first starter, may not be very good at defending against opponents, but he still has no problem facing the substitute.

After halftime, Yi Jianlian scored 2 points and 4 rebounds, and he gradually began to adapt to this style of play as a role player.
