NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

In the 1995-1996 season, there were a total of eight Eastern Conference teams that made the playoffs.

They are the Bulls team led by [Old Rogue] with 72 wins and 10 losses, and a winning rate of 87.8%;

60 wins and 22 losses, winning rate 73.2%, the New York Knicks led by [Gorilla] Ewing and [Shaq] O'Neal;

and the Cornfield Wrestling Warriors, Reggie Miller’s Indiana Pacers, who have a 52-30 record and a 63.4% winning percentage;

The Raptors, who made the playoffs right after entering the league, have a young duo, a record of 47 wins and 35 losses, and a winning rate of 57.3%;

The Orlando Magic and Cleveland Cavaliers, who also had 47 wins in the regular season;

And two teams with 46 wins and 36 losses in the regular season - the Detroit Pistons and the Atlanta Hawks.

According to the rules, the first round of the playoffs is:

公牛（1）战老鹰（8）、尼克斯（2）战活塞（7）、步行者（3）战骑士（6）、猛龙（4）战魔术（5）。

If the historical "Sharks" were still there, and the Magic team that was strong and finally entered the Eastern Conference Finals, Hanamichi might not have the confidence to beat it with 5 wins out of 3 games in the first round.

But the Magic management couldn't stop making weird moves.

The core of the team was removed in the middle of the season, and when the record declined in the late season, the head coach was replaced.

That's right, Jeff Van Gundy coached the Magic's final 23 games.

Hanamichi is glad that he was right not to choose the Clippers, who also have a bad management team. At the same time, he can only say sorry to the Magic team led by Penny Hardaway alone!

On April 4, the Raptors will face the Magic at home.

In the game that night, Hanamichi, who had upgraded to superstar strength, was on a killing spree in the penalty area.

Hanamichi, who turned into a bully under the basket, showed no mercy to his former teammate Sharon White and directly stabbed the Magic team's basket full of holes.

The Magic coach had originally placed his hopes on the team's inside players, Sharon White, Horace Grant, and Jon Cowenkick, but they were all ruthlessly crushed by Hanamichi.

Even Jon Cowenkick played for 12 minutes in the whole game, but was crushed by Hanamichi and only got 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 turnovers!

It can be said that this blatantly reveals the serious mistake made by the Magic management in forcing O'Neal to leave!

全场比赛花道出场40分钟，砍下了30分12个篮板5个助攻2个抢断以及6个盖帽！

在数据上和【23分+7篮板+5助攻】的【大猩猩】尤因，【33分+8篮板+5抢断】奥拉朱旺的、【33分+9篮板】马龙、【21分+8篮板+7助攻】的奥尼尔并驾齐驱。

At the press conference that night, facing his 30+10+5+5 data that broke or filled the team's history again and again, Hanamichi seemed quite calm and praised Hardaway of the Magic.

The latter also scored 27 points against his teammate, defensive ace Doug Christie, although he did so with a 37% shooting percentage.

Raptors head coach Landon Malone was pleased with the team's chemistry and Hanamichi's ability to speak eloquently to reporters.

Although he was already thinking about who his next opponent would be, this was not something he could talk about!

As for the Magic, Hardaway expressed his determination to win the next game and tie the score in front of reporters.

But the ideal is full, the reality is very skinny.

The second game will be on April 4th.

The Raptors, like their home fans, continued their hot form from the previous game.

Once again defeated the Magic 92:77.

And this time, the flower path is even more terrifying!

Facing the Magic's strategy of intensifying the inside siege, Hanamichi scored 17 points with only a very small number of shots or in other words, with few baskets.

However, some of the ball possession he gave up was converted into 7 assists and multiple passes.

At the same time, Hua Dao, who is well versed in the custom of reciprocity among flower growers, also turned into a defensive gate, grabbing a terrifying 18 rebounds and 9 blocks in the game!

Hua Dao used an alternative method to achieve data that only an inside player could produce!

Compared to Hardaway's 18 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists, it is even better.

The Raptors, leading 2-0, pushed the Magic to the brink of collapse.

Next, as long as the Magic lose a home game, they can go home and go fishing!

This is not what Hardaway wants to see.

Hua Dao knew that in the life-and-death battle of the third game, the Magic team would definitely fight back with all their players. In addition, their home court was in Orlando, so he was also extra careful.

If we can play one less game in the playoffs, maybe we can go further!

After the 28th, the Raptors will have a short three-day rest. According to the schedule, they will not go to Orlando to play this game until May 3nd.

At 5:2 p.m. local time on May 7, the Amway Arena in Orlando was packed.

This arena, which was put into use in 1989, is located in the center of Orlando. It has many names locally, such as Orlando Arena, TD Waterhouse Center, etc. It is a comprehensive venue that can accommodate more than spectators.

Just like the Raptors' home fans, at the Magic's home court, the cheers of their fans almost blew off the roof of the stadium!

There was a lot of booing when Hanamichi and others came on the field first; but when their own players came on the field, they cheered with the most enthusiastic voice, drowning out the DJ's introduction.

The game started on time at 8 o'clock.

In the jump ball, Hanamichi easily overpowered the 208cm Horace Grant and won the first attack for the Raptors.

In the low left wing, Hanamichi stood still, carrying Sharon White with his left elbow and raising his right hand to ask for the ball.

This is the Raptors' usual practice at the beginning of the game, with Hanamichi testing the opposing team's inside defensive strength, but the Raptors had already figured out the Magic team's inside defense.

But this time it was different. With Hanamichi standing two meters away, the Magic's small forward Denis Scott was staring closely at Hanamichi. As soon as the ball was passed to him, I believe he would come down and double-team Hanamichi immediately.

Sharon White, with the goal of proving himself, was wrapping his arms around Charles Oakley, and the two had already started wrestling near the penalty area.

At the top of the arc, Das used his extremely keen sense of smell to see the situation of Huadao and discovered that there was a trap near Huadao, so he unexpectedly passed the ball to Doug Christie who was lying in ambush at a 45° angle.

Seeing this, Hardaway immediately stepped forward to press Doug Christie.

"Wow! Hardaway's defense is really powerful!"

"The Magic's defense has really improved significantly compared to the previous two games."

"It seems that the Raptors' Damon Stoudemire doesn't have a good solution."

Seeing Doug Christie being forced by Hardaway, Hanamichi immediately ran to the mid-range to respond.

Doug Christie quickly passed the ball, but because of the distance, Denis Scott, who was defending Tracy Murray, did not move forward to double-team him.

In his opinion, this distance is a safe distance. After all, in the previous two games, Hanamichi posed a great threat under the basket. As long as he is kept away from the basket, he can relax his attention appropriately.

If Hanamichi attacks the basket, it won't be too late to go up and provide backup defense.

Unfortunately, Hanamichi used his [Iron Blood Jump Shot] to tell the Magic team that even if he was away from the basket, he was still as intimidating!

Today, with 104 points of mid-range shooting ability, a very high shooting point, and extremely stable open mid-range shots, Hanamichi has used an "Iron Blood Jump Shot" that is even more skillful than the Minnesota "Cubs", which has made it impossible for the Magic to defeat him!
