317: Hit the Most Valuable (4K)(1/2)
Wayne was really sad to watch the walkers being massacred.
It was sad for three seconds.
It’s not sad for those three little ones, but for their former good brother Xiao Ao.
On the basketball court, it was simply Yao Ming who abused the young sharks and Yao Ming who abused the young sharks and continued to abuse them.
It's a bit pitiful.
Xiao Ao has been suffering from injuries over the years and has lost his star aura.
The MVP ranking was third in the MVP rankings that year, and was considered the best power forward in the league outside KG and Deng Dai, and the core of winning the championship that year.
Nowadays, they can only be ravaged by Yao Ming and the young shark.
Time is unforgiving, and injuries are like tigers.
Fortunately, Xiao Ao in this history has at least a ring and won the championship once.
Moreover, he won the championship as a core player.
This is much better than his original fate, and even Barkley envies it.
So, it’s enough to have a heartache for only three seconds.
After three seconds of heartache, Wayne was full of energy again.
The next battle against Orlando Majik will undoubtedly be a tough battle.
But seeing Kobe showing off like that in front of the camera, Wayne didn't want to give in.
Look at your damn color!
I still have to pay back, and I still compare 10 in front of the camera.
If I lose before the Lakers, I will be on the handstand...
Forget it, in basketball games, anything can happen, ahem...
The main reason is that the Magic is really good, with 10 wins and 2 losses, which is similar to the Trail Blazers with 10 wins and 1 losses.
If the Trail Blazers lose in the next game, it will be 10 wins and 2 losses.
This magic is completely different from before. The arrival of Lewis and Stan Van Gundy has allowed the team to directly complete the ultimate evolution.
From a lower-level warrior to a bad boy with yellow hair.
As soon as he woke up the next day, Wayne received a text message from Howard.
"I'm in Portland, see you tonight!"
Well, Howard almost always texts Wayne to play away.
And the text message was like I was coming to Portland to find Wayne to play.
The Happy Beast is still as energetic as ever. He lost so quickly before, but now he can win, he will definitely be happier.
"I'll wait for you to send someone to the end of the night, so come on."
Wayne was originally planning to reply to Happy Beast like this, but after thinking about it, he still deleted the sentence "Go to cheer up".
Please consider it for your sister-in-law.
If the Happy Beast really rolled up her sleeves and worked hard, God knows what my sister-in-law would experience.
Five of the top ten balls?
After replying to the text message, Wayne rushed to the stadium to participate in this morning's pre-match tactics meeting.
It can be seen that McMillan still attaches great importance to the opponent Magic.
The East this season is different from last season. There is really no East last season, and there is not a single one.
But this season, although the overall strength of the East is still not as good as that of the West, at least the Celtics and Magic are really strong.
During the morning tactical meeting, McMillan also analyzed the semicircle tactics that made the Magic this season, both one big and four small and one star four-star tactics.
Stan Van Gundy can be said to have completely liberated Howard. Master Huo can do a single exchange of mousse. I really have to thank Van Gundy for it.
If it weren't for Van Gundy, Howard would have absolutely not been able to reach such a height.
First of all, Howard is a player with very obvious advantages and disadvantages.
He has no low-post skills, no mid-range shots, and no support. Although Ao Pang seems to be relying on his body to crush his opponents, in fact, his low-post skills are very superb.
So, if you ask Howard to play singles at low positions or pick-and-roll at high positions, the effect is actually not good.
This is why Howard didn't score 20 points per game in the previous seasons.
But Howard has two advantages on the offensive end - a powerful unballed basket cut and a second offense.
So Van Gundy tailored this star-stunning tactic based on Howard.
All four people were pulled outside the three-point line and then arranged a tall organizational core.
Then, let Howard bully the opponent's center with his running and jumping ability.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, Howard was unable to support the ball, and his ability to play was urgent.
Logically speaking, if you are double-teamed, it will be difficult for Howard to continue to operate the offense efficiently and smoothly.
But Van Gundy is the gangster... He arranged four people who can shoot three-pointers to the court in one go!
No matter how bad you pass the ball, as long as you can pass it to one of them, it will be a chance.
Four people, don't say that you can't spread it anymore.
Therefore, Howard has been playing this season and has averaged 22.3 points per game.
For a player who has almost no independent offensive ability and no offensive skills, it is already amazing to get this score by just rushing and dunking.
Of course, there is no perfect basketball tactic in this world. Although Van Gundy's tactics are very suitable for magic, and although they play the greatest value of Happy Beast, they are not the most perfect.
Having said this, McMillan couldn't help but look at Wayne.
"Van Gundy's system has two biggest shortcomings. First, it cannot defend against super insiders, such as Yao Ming. Well, Yao Ming is the only one in the league.
But the second disadvantage is that we can take advantage of it. Wei, you must perform well in the game tonight."
Wayne nodded. He knew what this second disadvantage was, needless to say.
On the evening of November 21, Rose Garden Arena.
Although this game was not a live broadcast across the United States, it still attracted a lot of attention.
You know, Howard is a popular player now.
A sunny boy who has excellent results in leading the team, has a pleasing style of playing, and likes to laugh and funny. Who doesn’t like it?
Howard's popularity has been at its peak in the past few years.
Although he is rough in his skills and does not have a strong desire to win, this does not affect his becoming a good idol.
Of course, Sir Ba has always been unaware of Howard.
Before the game started today, he also talked about the topic again: "I have never seen any great center who is hippie."
Barkley began to eliminate this popular idol as soon as he came.
"People love him so much, and for one reason - others are harmless. He will not hurt the team you like, nor will he hurt the stars you like, he will only smile and perform dunks for you again and again.
He is suitable for a slam dunk contest, but not for a real fight.
They may still perform well in the regular season, but in the playoffs, everyone knows what I say means.
Wayne is different, he..."
Kenny Smith, who was standing beside him, was speechless, why did he lick him again?
Aren't you talking about happy beasts?
You're not licking Wayne for a day and you're feeling uncomfortable!
Although Barkley spoke a little straightforwardly, he was indeed a sharp attack.
He could see that Howard was not the kind of player who was willing to give all his money for the championship, nor the kind of player who said, "I must beat you up today, and I will drag you into the water even if I die."
This temperament that cannot be specifically quantified is exactly indispensable on the road to championship.
In the Western Conference Finals last season, if Wayne, who was forced into a desperate situation, did not have such determination to fight to the death, then the Lakers would definitely be the one who entered the finals.
This is the one that Howard has fewer.
The Magic has emerged this season, which has made fans talk about.
But Barkley knew that this team could never be a truly dominant team.
At the scene, the happy beast hugged Wayne with a smile.
Well, there was no time when the two sides fought each other, Howard didn't laugh.
Afterwards, he greeted Paul and Sun Yue separately, which was such a friendly heartthrob.
But on the bench, Stan Van Gundy's expression was very serious!
