Hardaway's back and turn are indeed very strong.

This is Hardaway's best offensive method, and he still doesn't believe he can't score a goal!

However, when Hardaway thought he could easily throw the ball in, Shea's palm was as punctual as the Los Angeles subway, still giving Hardaway serious interference!

Hardaway's dazzling move just now was indeed successful, and it did open up space.

But the problem is that Shay's wide defensive range allows him to easily cover that little gap!

Hardaway still shot against the defense in the end!

As expected, the basketball popped out again, and Penny was defended again!

Shea's current single defense ability, although it is impossible to complete steals or blocks every round.

But it has reached the point where you can not give your opponent any openings every round!

If you can hit the ball against my defense, then I'll admit it.

But you want to get a wide shooting space? Sorry, that’s simply impossible!

Anfernee Hardaway's best back-up is useless. He is desperate. He has tried his best, but all these tricks have no effect in front of Shay!

Shay is like a wall, no matter how hard you hit it, it will always be you who hurts!

In this way, the rest of the game in the second quarter was full of mistakes and irons for Hardaway.

And, Shay’s trash talk:

"Why is the ball in my hand again? Patrick, did you see what just happened?"

"Damn, I heard Orlando has a linebacker, where is it!?"

"Your performance today is only worth a few pennies!"

Under Shay's dual physical and psychological torture, Hardaway seemed to be a completely changed person.

With Hardaway's performance today, let alone the first team, he is not qualified to enter the third team!

In the tenth minute of the second quarter, the Magic were already 16 points behind.

Carlisle also replaced Shay to let Shay take a breather.

In the third quarter, I clocked out again with great energy.

Hardaway almost cried when he saw Shay's end.

He had never felt so relaxed in his life!

Now, I can finally do something big, right?

After Shea came off the field, the task of defending Penny fell on Finley.

This time the Magic attacked, Hardaway received a pass from O'Neal in the right corner.

The Shark was double-teamed again just before taking action, so he had to pass the ball out.

Hardaway faced Finley and decided to play one single.

Finally, without Shay, Hardaway had to take the opportunity to quickly recover the score.

Seeing that Finley resisted the pressure very fiercely, Hardaway was ready to imitate Jordan, first turning sideways and holding the ball behind with one hand to avoid being intercepted.

Then wait for the opportunity to turn or half-turn to pass.

As a result, when Hardaway stretched the ball back with one hand, the basketball hit something and dropped his hand.

Hardaway looked back in shock. It was Shay!

As soon as Shea saw Finley guarding Penny alone, he stood up from the bench and walked to the sidelines to provide on-site guidance.

During this period, because things like the Battle at the Palace of Auburn Hills had not happened yet, there were no particularly strict restrictions on the range of activities of substitute players.

As long as you don't step directly onto the court and interfere with the game, basically no one will care about you.

Little did he know that as soon as Shay stood up and stood on the sidelines, he was hit in the face with a ball from Hardaway.

Hardaway looked at the basketball on the ground and his mentality collapsed.

no

I thought that after Shay finally came off the court, I would finally be able to show off my powers, but Shay was able to give me a steal from outside the bounds!?

It’s simply a haunting!

Shay is also innocent. What are you yelling about? I am the victim!

Don’t you know whether to slap someone in the face or not!?

Although the ball definitely still belongs to the Magic, Shea got a T for it.

But Hardaway's mentality can no longer be saved. Shea can prevent him from attacking off the court, which has completely shrouded him in Shea's shadow.

After that, Hardaway's condition was completely gone. Although O'Brien was invincible under the basket, he was helpless and unable to defeat four opponents.

In the third quarter, when Shea returned to the court, the point difference widened even further.

Hardaway still couldn't find a way to stifle Shai, and he even became a little afraid to dribble more.

Every time he faced Shea's defense, the situation was basically like this:

After starting the breakthrough, Shea's incredible lateral speed blocked him from having any room to move. After being forced to stop, Shea suddenly stopped everything and swatted the ball away. At this time, Hardaway could only hug the basketball with both hands.

Therefore, he could no longer dribble and was nailed to the spot.

This is the defense Hardaway faces. There is no chance, no gap left.

It even feels like I can’t attack at all!

Although Hardaway can occasionally rely on a flash of inspiration to turn around and pass Shea to score a layup, but it is really too "occasional".

Occasionally in the entire third quarter, Hardaway only scored 4 points on top of Shay's head!

Even if the score is low, the assists are not brought up either.

Finally, with the last attack left in the third quarter, the Magic were already 25 points behind!

At this time, Hardaway took 24 shots in the three quarters because he could not pass the ball and could only attack hard.

But he only made 8 of 24 shots and only scored 18 points.

18 points in three quarters is indeed a lot, but if you only score 18 points in as many as 24 shots, the gold content is not very high.

Shay has already scored 24 points and 10 assists, which is an understatement.

Shay completely suppressed Hardaway, both in terms of data and efficiency, which were far higher than Penny.

Now, no one will say such silly things as "Penny can replace Shay in the best first team".

Shay hit the target without mercy, breaking all doubts!

However, Shay seems not satisfied yet.

In the last attack of the third quarter, he controlled the ball himself, hoping to give Hardaway the most fatal blow.

Today, Hardaway didn't say a single trash word to Shay throughout the whole process, and he didn't seek death like Garnett did.

But it’s not okay for the media to make Shay angry!

Shay, who was ignited with anger, seemed to be even more brutal, tearing apart opposing players crazily on both offense and defense.

The players who play against him will suffer like Hardaway.

Poor Penny, this wave is equivalent to being praised by the Orlando media.

There is actually no problem with the media praising Hardaway. After all, Penny is indeed very strong.

Their mistake was that they should not have touched Shay.

Shea controlled the time from outside the three-point line with such a relaxed posture that he seemed not to pay attention to Hardaway's defense at all.

When there were only 15 seconds left in the attack time, Shay controlled the ball with one hand and hooked his finger at Hardaway with the other hand!

"You are very strong Anfernee, but unless I retire, you will never be able to enter the best team!"

After that, Shay accelerated directly and forced his way past Hardaway.

But at this time, Cobra Grant had already stepped up to defend, and the timing was just right.

After all, Grant has been selected to the defensive second team for three consecutive years, so he naturally has a strong defensive awareness.

It seemed that Shay's road was blocked. So Shay wanted to change direction to the left while traveling.

Grant judged Shay's intention correctly and moved laterally to Shay's left, continuing to block Shay's path.

But as if there was not even a second, Shay, who originally changed direction to the left, immediately flashed to the right, like lightning, he completed a change of position between lightning and flint!

This change of direction, which was like teleportation, made Cobra Grant and Penny freeze on the spot.

Especially Pence, he has completely seen the gap between himself and Shay!

He can't forcefully break Shay's defense, but Shay can break through the Magic's defense in various ways.

He couldn't contain Shay, but Shay could control him easily.
