"It's in, the two teams are tied at 110-110, it's overtime." Kevin Harlan was very excited.
"This game was very exciting. Both teams showed extremely high technical and tactical qualities, and they also played very beautifully and worked very hard. This is what we have always said, the NBA will be the same as before in March.
It’s different, the competition for the playoff rankings has become fierce, and all teams will use all their methods, and only then will the games become more enjoyable.” Groom Gilbert analyzed it from another angle.
"It's a pity that we encountered the crazy schedule of the NCAA." Steve Kerr did not continue, but instead pulled the groom's hind leg, and the other two people nodded and laughed.
After the three of them finished laughing, Kevin Harlan asked a question again, "Which team do you two think can win the overtime?"
"It's hard to say. Generally speaking, overtime games mainly focus on two aspects, physical fitness and experience, and they each account for one of these two aspects. The Magic have many young players, and in the end they were still able to run and jump, just like in the first quarter.
The Kings are experienced, and their players have high intelligence and strong ability to read the game. They know how to deal with this situation. It is difficult to judge who can win." Marv gave his opinion.
"I think it's magic."
"Tell me why, Steve."
"Because Magic coach Paul has a stronger desire to win than Adelman. Although Adelman is very bold in the use of players, especially in promoting newcomers, he is not courageous enough in the game, and the more critical moments he becomes, the worse he becomes.
Seeking stability and not daring to fight. And this attitude of his has been passed on to every player of the Kings. Now the further the Kings play, the more likely they are to get scared. They all cherish their feathers and dare not risk their lives. This is why O'Neal despised the Kings in the first place.
s reason."
"But this is not the case when we look at the Magic. I have been observing Paul Edison as the coach for a long time. He has an unusual hunger for victory. There is never a word "give up" in his dictionary, so when we look at the Magic in the past,
When the score fell behind, the opponents all came on the bench, and he went on as the main player such as Nash. This may have something to do with his age. Young people always refuse to admit defeat, always believe in miracles, and are always full of energy. And the Magic players also happen to be
Mainly young people, their mentality resonates very much with Edison. Although they will make mistakes and make mistakes at critical moments, they have never been afraid. As the saying goes, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. I believe that this spirit of magic will eventually be
Let them win."
After hearing this, groom Gilbert and Kevin Harlan secretly nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's turn our attention back to the game and see what the final result will be, and whether it will be like what Steve said."
After the player came on the court, Magic's Howard easily won the jump ball.
Nash quickly advanced after receiving the ball. After Nash and Howard picked and rolled, the ball was passed to Hill on the outside. Facing the Kings' defense, Hill did not stick to the ball, but played it back to Howard inside.
After Howard received the ball, he bent down and dribbled, ready to roll over for a layup. It was a standard center move. But as soon as he stepped in, he felt the space in front of him, and then there was a "boom" sound, and he focused his attention.
At first glance, Brad Miller was already lying on the ground. Ever since Divac came to the Kings, flopping has been a required lesson in the Kings' offensive and defensive system.
"Offensive collision." The referee gave the penalty. "Blue No. 12, 6 fouls left the field."
Edison looked at the referee's penalty and patted his head speechlessly. Howard committed 5 fouls at the end of the fourth quarter, but the overtime was only 5 minutes in total, so Edison didn't care, but he didn't expect that he would just jump the ball.
Got sent off….
Fortunately, the Magic still have Varejao. Although he is not as powerful as Howard, he is still better than the Kings' inside line. So Edison arranged for Varejao to play while comforting Howard who was coming off the game.
Brad Miller saw that he had beaten Howard, and he was blowing bullshit with Stojakovic and others, but unexpectedly, a taller and more powerful one came. Anyway, Varejao's appearance
He looks much better than Howard.
This overtime was the first overtime played by the Magic this season, so the Magic players were particularly fresh. Therefore, the main center Howard was sent off, and there was no change in the players' mentality.
The first one to show his strength was Iguodala. When Mike Bibby made a layup, he jumped up from behind and pushed the basketball onto the backboard.
This was so awesome that all the fans and Kings players were dumbfounded, but the players on the Magic Field were not dumb. After Iguodala got the ball, he directly made a long pass. Marion had already thrown it.
He rushed over, caught the ball and dunked with both hands, scoring the first point of the overtime.
"The ball was played so fast that the camera couldn't keep up with it. From the block to the goal, it only took 2 seconds. Although Iguodala is not an outstanding player, he is really good.
very useful."
After Weber left, the king's current boss is theoretically Stojakovic, but in actual tactics, the core is still Miller on the inside and Bibby on the outside. Peja's number of shots has not increased significantly because of this, or has it?
You have to move your position honestly, and then wait for others to pass the ball to you.
Miller held the basketball high and took aim, then handed the ball to Peja.
Peja's shooting is accurate, his release speed is fast, and his shooting range is long. He is indeed an excellent offensive terminator. It sounds very similar to another white man Nowitzki, but Peja cannot be the core like the German tank because he
His one-on-one ability is extremely poor.
First of all, Nowitzki can break through from the high post, but Peja can't. His breakthrough is limited to cutting into the baseline. Secondly, Nowitzki is better than Peja just in terms of shooting. As mentioned before, Nowitzki
His horseback shooting has no solution from the front, and the defensive players have absolutely no way to deal with him. But Peja's shooting point is not that high, so he will be affected.
In addition to being unable to play one-on-one, another problem with Peja is that his main activity area is too far away.
When we look at any tactical core player, his activity area must be directly in front of the backboard, near the range circled by the three-second zone and the penalty area. Because this position is the center of the entire court and can radiate to any position in the half court.
, whether you are the finisher of the ball or the organizer of the pass, this range can maximize your efficiency. You can let go of your memories. The core of any strong team must be mainly in this position, and O'Neal is here.
Rely on playing, Duncan hits the board at 45 degrees here, Garnett hooks here, McGrady pulls up here, Kobe fades away here, Wade breaks through here, and Nowitzki rides and shoots arrows here.
But Peja rarely appears here. His main active positions are the bottom corner of the three-point line and the wing. These two positions cannot radiate to the whole court. In other words, you have the most players who can cooperate with him.
There are only 3~4 people, and there is one person who he cannot take care of.
For the above two reasons, it is actually easy to judge that Peja is an outstanding role player. He cannot serve as the team's tactical core. But I don't know what the King was thinking at the time. They chose to give up between Weber and him.
Weber was really speechless.
Back to the game, after Peja caught the ball in the corner, Marion pounced on him, followed closely by Nash, who double-teamed him.
Some double teams are because one person cannot be guarded, but the double teams on Peja are to prevent him from passing the ball out again and force him to shoot by himself...
So Peja made a three-pointer despite Marion's interference, and the iron hit. Varejao stuck Miller out with a stick of his butt, then took the ball into his arms, and then handed it to Nash.
Nash opened his legs and advanced quickly with the ball.
At this time, another problem with the Kings was exposed. Although this team's offense is particularly gorgeous and every player has a high golf IQ, their athletic ability is extremely poor. The only players on the court now are Bibby and Stephenson.
They can still run, but the other three are very heavy-footed, and when they run, they make a "dong-dong" sound like a pounding. The movement speed is slow, and the defensive rotation is slow, so the King's defense has been criticized.
Normally these guys can't run on defense, and now they can't run in overtime.
If Nash, Josh, and Iguodala rush through the Kings half like three lightning bolts, only Bibby will come back from the defense, and his defense is not good either.
This kind of extra magic trick in the frontcourt is encountered too many times. The three people don't need to make eye contact at all, which wastes time. It all depends on tacit understanding. Iguodala moved Bibi to the side, and Nash lobbed the ball toward
On the other side of the basket, Josh Smith leaped high into the air, his jersey popping in the wind like a flag, and then he caught the ball with both hands in the air and dunked.
The Kings fans knew what they were going to do as soon as they saw Nash's passing style, and were not shocked. They just booed the visiting team's alley-oop.
Turning around, Bibby and Miller scored a layup. But turning around, Nash made a three-pointer.
At this time, Stevenson was a little out of his element. The team was already lagging behind, so he shot two three-pointers in succession, trying to recreate the buzzer-beating goal. But dreams are always a little far from reality, but they are not far away.
It's only 5cm, and I hit the basket and hit the iron twice.
The Magic took another opportunity and played a fast break. Another time, although Marion missed a three-pointer, Varejao grabbed an offensive rebound and made a dunk. In this way, there was only one minute left in the game.
At that time, the Magic already led by 7 points.
The advantages of magic are already quite obvious.
At this time, Peja finally stepped forward. He first caused a foul on Marion, then scored two free throws, and then hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner to reduce the score gap to 2 points.
But time was running out, and the Kings had no choice but to start using foul tactics. Edison, on the other hand, sent Martin, Hill, and Diaw, three guys who were more confident in shooting, onto the court early.
As a result, Martin withstood the pressure and made two free throws, but Bibby quickly hit a three-pointer and the Magic only led by one point.
Then Hill bullied the Kings for being slow. He took the ball and ran half a circle around his own half before being hugged by Stevenson, which wasted a lot of time. After walking to the free throw line, he was steady again.
Two free throws were made. At this time, there was only 4 seconds left for the King.
Bijie quickly passed the half court after receiving the ball, and then shot a three-pointer from long range. Unfortunately, luck was not on their side this time and they failed to score.
In the end, the Magic won 120-123 in the away game.
