NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

Hanamichi, who was sitting on the sidelines resting, watched O'Neal's rim-blasting performance from a bystander's perspective, and could feel the power of this "Shark" more objectively than on the court.

It's simply a monster that combines both dynamic and static aspects!

Whether it is the mobility and flexibility comparable to that of an outside player, or the unique strength and explosiveness, he is at the top level in the league's interior.

Especially from Hanamichi's perspective, O'Neal's back turn was incredibly fast.

Let’s put it this way, Hanamichi was originally a little proud of the fact that his footwork under the basket and his back-turning speed were among the best in the league’s interior.

But after watching the performance of [Sharks], I also felt a little pressure and inferiority!

The pressure is that there is a high probability that I cannot defend against his back-turning move, and what makes me ashamed is that the reason why I cannot defend against it is not because I cannot keep up, but because of the difference in strength!

“No wonder the NBA’s Center Era began.”

Hanamichi muttered to himself!

From 1994 to 2006, this "Shark" was basically in the Western Conference team for more than ten years.

The Eastern Conference is a little better, but any team that is determined to reach the ceiling of the Western Conference Finals must have at least 2 to 3 tank-type centers!

At this point, the league's meaty center found its "spring", and the most glorious and final glorious era of the center began!

Watching O'Neal wantonly invading his own basket, Landon Malone took a deep breath, turned to Hanamichi and said:

"Flower, get ready to play!"

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to go up and contain that monster!"

"But I need you to go up there and hold the score and protect the backcourt rebounds."

Hua Dao looked at Scott, who was frowning on the Magic team, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, boss! I will teach the opposing inside player a lesson like Shaquille did, and make him fall into the abyss~"

Halfway through the third quarter, with Landon Malone's substitution, Hanamichi finally returned to the court!

Hanamichi came back on the court and after receiving the pass from Das at the corner, he turned around, cleanly passed Scott and rushed towards the basket!

"Good guy!"

O'Neal saw the behavior of this red-haired boy. He came to demonstrate against him right away. How could this be okay?

So he gave up on Oliver Miller and pounced on Hanamichi as soon as he entered the penalty area!

Landon Malone on the sidelines was terrified and regretted sending Hanamichi onto the court!

If he gets injured, his position as head coach will probably be in jeopardy!

Masai Ujiri: "I gave you a chance but you didn't use it!"

The Magic fans at the scene jumped up as they watched Hanamichi stand up and shoot in the paint.

Then the scene they had planned in their hearts was also released:

That was the Great Shark jumping out of the sea and slapping the basketball in Hanamichi's hand with his giant hands.

But...the scene they expected of the flower path being blocked did not happen.

Hanamichi's expression in mid-air did not change at all, as if the one rushing towards him was not that monster.

If you look closely, you can see that the person he was glancing at from the corner of his eye was the one behind O'Neal - Oliver Miller, the meat shield center who had been ravaged since the second half.

A clever ground pass, even Oliver Miller himself didn't know when the basketball suddenly came into his hands.

Fortunately, he is still alert, and years of training have enabled him to develop a conditioned reflex after catching the ball under the basket.

With a gentle lick of the basket, he put the ball steadily into the basket, scoring 2 points for the team!

"Good fellow... I'm just a good fellow!"

"We really can't stay in this team anymore!"

Sharon White was stunned!

So Flower can give assists, but I didn't see you pass the ball to me in the first half and a half!

Just watch you holding the ball and shooting it into the basket!

Huadao said:

"I just learned it! I just upgraded from 85 to 108, you're still not used to it!"

Next, Hua Dao really fulfilled his promise to coach Ma Long.

By holding the ball and playing one-on-one in the interior, he completely made the Magic's backup power forward, Knicks Scott, who replaced the starting power forward, feel nervous.

It also attracted O'Neal's attention and relieved the pressure on Oliver Miller in the interior.

And through pick-and-roll on the outside, the team's outside firepower is completely unleashed.

As the saying goes, if the east window is dark, the west window will be bright. Although Das’ shooting touch has never been good.

However, the Raptors' 33-year-old veteran guard Alvin Robertson stepped up.

This season is the last season for the veteran guard. In fact, he has already planned to retire from the NBA!

In this game, the veteran guard who is about to retire had an extremely high hit rate of 83.3%, making 6 of 5 shots, 2 of 1 three-pointers, and 9 of 9 free throws, completely turning the score around in the third quarter.

第三节结束，猛龙队单节28：23，再加上第一节的29：24，第二节的27：34。

At the end of the third quarter, the Raptors led the Orlando Magic 84:81 (home team first, away team second)

Finally it was the decisive fourth quarter, the moment that Hanamichi had been waiting for for a long time.

Throughout the second half of the third quarter, he was threading the needle, setting pick-and-rolls, assisting and grabbing rebounds, waiting for the final decisive moment.

The [Big Diesel Engine] on the opposite side has already played for 26 minutes in this game, and it should not have much fuel left!

However, through rest and adjustments in the third quarter, he retained enough physical strength to spend as he pleased, and it was no problem for him to play the entire fourth quarter.

Next, it depends on who can score longer!

The [Shark] on the other side thought the same thing.

So at the beginning of the fourth quarter, when he saw Hanamichi standing near the penalty area, he quickly switched defense with Scott.

I hope to control the opponent's core offensive point in the interior with my own hands.

It's time to come!
