On the Green Army bench, Garnett felt like he was numb.

I'm so tired...

I saw that annoying rookie killing everyone on the court, leading the team to an 18:9 victory in 5 minutes, and the score difference suddenly reached 25 points.

Not to mention, I originally thought that Li Chengming's roaring shooting style was learned from him. On the surface, Garnett was disdainful, but in his heart he was a little happy that he had such a "successor".

But I didn't expect that Li Chengming could be twisted into this way. Are you here to play ball or act in a movie?

Doesn't this smear my reputation as a mighty KG?

Why the hell am I yelling like that?

Don’t say I know him in the future...

Oh, by the way, his surname is also Li, and he is also Chinese. Maybe he has something to do with Bruce Lee.

At this time, Rivers signaled another timeout. In fact, the Green Army's offensive problem during this period was not big. They scored 20 points in 9 minutes. This is considered a very ordinary offensive efficiency. It is really too much for the opponent's offense today.

It's an exaggeration. The second quarter ended with more than 3 minutes and 62 points were already scored.

And that first-year student was trying to get everything under their basket, not daring to let him go, but not daring to double-team him easily, because the Magic had everyone else on the court tonight, and it only took 12 minutes for him to play.

He scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and he was on his way to a super triple-double.

At this time, a trade-off is needed. Should he continue to play like this in single defense, or should he double-team and let other Magic players play?

The most ideal situation, of course, is to double-team and then others to hit the iron. The Green Army can catch up with the score. When the time comes to win the game, it doesn't matter whether they can guard against Li Chengming or not.

The worst case scenario is that you take away the data, and I take away the victory.

But judging from the current situation, if they really double-team Li Chengming, there is a high probability that they will not be able to win. Instead, this game is very likely to turn into more flowers for the Magic.

In that case, Li Chengming won't be able to score high points, but he may still get a triple-double, and his statistics will still be impressive, but they may face a massacre and lose even more ugly.

Although now from the scene, it is already being massacred.

Many Green Army fans in front of the TV had silently chosen to turn off the TV and not watch the game, as if they would not be able to see the home team's defeat.

The Magic are not the kind of bad team that suddenly explodes. Even if they can't continue to explode in the second half, there is a high probability that they can still be on par with the Celtics. And with such a big point difference, in their view, "it's over."

What's more, it's unacceptable for the team you support to be blown away by a rookie.

In the end, Rivers chose to restrict Li Chengming. No matter whether they lost or won the game, they would not be able to accept allowing Li Chengming to score high points. Several big players in the team, especially Garnett, would definitely be unhappy.

Can't accept it.

He went into battle injured today not to watch Li Chengming's show, but to defeat the opponent.

After the timeout, after the Green Army chose to double-team Li Chengming, Lewis got two open three-point opportunities from the outside, which actually made the poor kid feel a little unbelievable about this sudden change in treatment, and then two more

Liantie.

Magic fans suddenly lamented, feeling that they had cheered for Lewis too early.

Can you do it, little dog?

Of course, a man cannot say that he is not good, but Lewis still seized the opportunity. Then the Green Army double-teamed him more assuredly, but he finally hit both of his shots, and another 3+1, successfully raising his own score.

20.

At halftime, the Magic had already scored 20+ points between the two players, and the score also climbed to 70. This made many fans who had just come to watch the game confused.

Isn't it promised that Mars will hit the Earth and the battle for the top spot will begin? What's going on? How about playing?

The second quarter of the game ended after Turkoglu missed a three-pointer at the buzzer. Yang Jian watched both sides withdraw their troops and said with some helplessness: "The Green Army's offensive efficiency in the second quarter was already good. Ray Allen and Pierce both

He made two three-pointers and Rondo also scored, but the Magic really couldn't defend it."

The Magic scored 38 points in the first quarter, scored 34 points again in the second quarter, and scored 72 points at halftime. Judging from this situation, they were heading for 130 points.

The Greens also scored 30 points in the second quarter, but ended up trailing by 25 points going into halftime.

Li Chengming had 26 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists in the half. He scored two more points on free throws before leaving the field. 30+ and a triple-double are within sight. It just depends on how long the Green Army can hold on in the second half.

Lewis also performed well today, scoring 23 points on 6 of 9 three-pointers, Howard had 8 points, 12 rebounds and 3 blocks, and Turkoglu also scored 8 points and 7 assists.

On the Green Army side, the Big Three and Rondo both recovered in the second quarter. Pierce scored 14 points at halftime, Ray Allen scored 11 points, Rondo and Garnett both scored 7 points, but the shooting percentages of the two teams were insufficient.

A difference of 14 percentage points, and this was despite the Magic grabbing more frontcourt boards, more offensive opportunities, and more free throws.

Suqun said: "I hope the Green Army can make adjustments quickly during the midfield and regain their form in the second half, otherwise there will be no suspense in this game."

Yang Jian sighed: "The Green Army may be a little under-prepared for this game, and now it's not a question of whether they can score, but that they really can't defend it. Before Li Chengming came off the field, he was caught after catching the ball.

If Lewis and Evans hadn't missed some shots due to a drop in shooting percentage, the difference might have been 30 points now."

This actually shows that the Green Army's defensive strategy is working, which is to double-team Li Chengming and let others go. But the problem is that the Magic have a fault tolerance rate.

Everyone played their best today. Howard didn't have to worry about scoring, he just focused on rebounding and defense. He only got 5 frontcourt boards, which was equivalent to giving the Magic five more offensive opportunities.

During the halftime break, the atmosphere in the home team's locker room was undoubtedly very joyful. The fans were enjoying themselves and the players themselves were playing enthusiastically.

Howard also shared with everyone the various conversations and little actions between Li Chengming and Garnett during the half. Although everyone knew that Li Chengming was not an innocent person, he usually didn't talk that much. Unexpectedly, in Garnett

I talk a lot in front of Te.

Turkoglu asked curiously: "You are not his fan, are you?"

"How is it possible? What are you thinking? If you have to say whose fan I am, it's either Kobe or Michael."

Evans chuckled and said, "Maybe it's love that breeds hatred. After all, KG is..."

Everyone tacitly understands that if you can be a good friend outside the court, but if you start a tit-for-tat confrontation on the court, you will definitely feel disgusted with him.

It's not just Li Chengming, but Howard is also like this. Of course, this guy seems to have trouble dealing with many of the older generation insiders in the league. I don't know who disliked whom first.

Of course, the biggest quarrel is definitely the big shark...

"Okay, come here." Van Gundy also listened for a while and did not disturb their chat. When he saw that the time was almost up, he clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then said: "First half

Everyone performed very well, but there is still half a game left.

"Don't relax, keep your energy, it's best to defeat them directly in the third quarter and win this victory! How about it, can it be done?"

"YES SIR!!!"
