On the second ball, Rashard Lewis made a decisive foul.
Many people say that Rashad Lewis is a parallel importer.But in fact, it is not a joke that Rashad Lewis can get a contract of [-] million yuan.
Super shooting ability and height advantage give Rashad Lewis an unparalleled advantage when facing most defensive players.
In this regard, Rashad Lewis is very similar to Nowitzki, and a bit like Durant and Qin Yang.
All four of them have shooting and height advantages in matchups, but relatively speaking, Rashad Lewis has no advantages in other aspects, while the other three have their own unique skills.
Not to mention Nowitzki, his shooting ability is abnormal, defense at the basket, and rebounding are very strong in all aspects.
Durant is simply a small forward bug. It can be said that on the NBA court, Durant is really as tall as me but not as fast as I am, and as fast as I am.
Qin Yang is another type. Most of the opposing players are not as tall or as fast as me. Even players who are about my speed and height, I have high skills, accurate shooting... and top organizational skills.
Relatively speaking, Rashard Lewis was a little more embarrassed.
This is why Rashad Lewis is called a parallel importer.
But this ball, Qin Yang saw it clearly off the court. If Rashad Lewis did not foul and Varejao continued to score, the Magic would be in trouble.
Varejao made two goals in the opening game, and the Cavaliers' tactics were fully played out, so the next game would be difficult for the Magic.
Varejao made two free throws.
The game continues.
The Magic attacked, Turkoglu finally chose to do it after the pick-and-roll, Varejao assisted in the defense, Turkoglu hit the iron gloriously, Turkoglu's strength cannot support a championship-level team.
At this time, it was obvious.
Fortunately, Howard was strong inside, and after grabbing the rebound, he directly provoked a dunk.
This ball, no foul.
If there is a foul, it is a 2+1.
The Cavaliers took the lead from the start.
The configuration of the Magic with one center and four shooters is somewhat similar to that of the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers all shoot except for James, while the Cavaliers are more balanced.
Qin Yang watched from the sidelines and had a feeling that the Cavaliers had a great chance of winning the game.
A basketball game is actually an arithmetic problem most of the time.
The lineups and dispatches of the two sides determine many things. As long as the two sides perform normally, there will not be many problems in the outcome of the game.
For example, in the first quarter, the Magic were very uncomfortable facing the Cavaliers' defense.
In the first quarter, the Magic scored 22 of 8 and performed poorly. Even Howard worked hard and scored 10 points and 4 rebounds, but it didn't help. This is a gap in tactics and strength.
Howard can't support the inside and can't carry the offense. The Magic can only choose outside shooting.
As an outside shooter, the Magic are not strong and are easily disturbed.
Alston, Kunit Lee, Turkoglu and Rashad Lewis lineup, no one can attack with the ball to open the situation.On the offensive end, the Magic fell into a disadvantage.
On the defensive end, the magic reading is also at a disadvantage.
Rashard Lewis is older, slower, okay defensive pitcher and easy to get past against Mo Williams and Delonte West.
Turkoglu's defense is also quite satisfactory, and it is unrealistic to rely on Turkoglu as a defensive spearhead.
Alston, as a streetball player, has good breakthroughs and passes, but his shooting is unstable and his defense is very urgent. He has always been the target of other teams' breakthroughs.
Kunit Lee is a good 3D player, but his strength is average.
The Magic's defense is to interfere with shots from the outside, and Howard relies on the inside. With such a lineup, it is really not easy to reach the Eastern Conference Finals.
In the first quarter, the Cavaliers took a 33-19 lead.
The Magic performed extremely poorly in the first quarter and missed their shots.
In the second quarter, Qin Yang played.
Qin Yang played, and the home fans cheered. In the last game, he faced the Eagles with 32 points in a single quarter, which made Qin Yang famous. At this time, the fans in the Quicken Loans Center gave Qin Yang applause.
On the first ball, Qin Yang used Varejao's pick-and-roll to break through.
Facing Rashad Lewis' help defense, Qin Yang changed hands, and a crossover accelerated to break into the basket. This would have been a wonderful breakthrough layup.
But at the critical moment, Howard came up with a block and shot the ball out of bounds.
"Bruce, with me here, you don't even think about scoring at the basket."
Howard giggled, like a bastard, Qin Yang shook his head, very speechless.
Just now Howard's defense speed and jumping are really terrifying. It is estimated that any insider will not be able to successfully assist the defense with this ball substitution.
Howard's speed and bounce were too terrifying, and he blocked Qin Yang who had already shot in the blink of an eye.
Varejao serves, Qin Yang catches the ball and directly faces Cunett Lee's defense. Cunett Lee is embarrassed, but helpless.As a 3D player, Kunit Lee is also well-known in the league, but...the height difference can't be helped, Qin Yang directly shot without any interference.
As a Magic player, Qin Yang is most afraid of Turkoglu.
Turkoglu is a little taller than Qin Yang, and his speed is not slow. Qin Yang has no advantage in height and speed. Turkoglu is not necessarily efficient in singles.
The goal was scored, and the Magic immediately added a small timeout.
After returning from the timeout, the Magic's tactics changed again. Howard no longer stood under the basket for low-post singles and rebounds, but cut directly after the outside pick-and-roll.
Seeing this tactical change, Qin Yang felt bad.
Howard's air cut threat is very great, except for the mid-range shooting, Howard can't foul as long as he runs, and the direct catch and air cut is a slam dunk.
No one can stop this strength, height and bounce.
Fortunately...the Magic don't have a good point guard, no one is passing the ball, and they can't play the power of Howard's air cut. What's more, if you want to cooperate with Howard, you'd better be very good at shooting.
Howard has a screen, and the player with the ball can find a shooting opportunity. Even if the iron is hit, Howard has a high probability of rushing to grab the rebound. If he passes the ball, Howard directly cuts and dunks.
This fit is simple but practical.
It's similar to the pick-and-roll cooperation of the Jazz and Nash Stoudemire of the Suns.
It's a pity that the attacker with the ball is a bit weak, and this tactic didn't work out.
Turkoglu hit the ball with a shot, and Howard squeezed Varejao away, directly catching the basketball for a very easy dunk.
It's not that the tactics are great, but that Howard's air cut is too powerful.
Unlike Stoudemire, in addition to air cuts, Stoudemire's face-up offense is also top-notch, whether it is shooting or layups, the level is very high, but Howard's face-up offense...is horrible.
Not only has the pass been changed, but the Magic's passing and cutting coordination and shots have also become more crisp and neat.
The bleak feeling in the first quarter slowly recovered, the point difference did not expand, and the Magic's scoring became more and more unorganized.
In the second quarter, when Qin Yang played, he didn't open up the point difference.
