I’m Really Playing Basketball

On May 27, 2007, Orlando Amway Arena.

In the first two away games, the Magic, which had lost two consecutive games, returned to home and will play the most important game for them this season.

Two consecutive defeats at the start of the away game meant that for the Magic, G3 was either life or death. Victory would have a chance to change their destiny, and if they lost, it would definitely be GG.

In the last round, they once gave this situation to the Heat. In the end, the Heat used the madness and desperation of Wade and Yao Ming to reach the end of the series and hit the tiebreaker.

The last round of the Heat was tragic.

Yao Ming and Wade in the last round were tragic.

When they were promoted, they were also full of respect for the Heat and Wade Yao Ming.

However, they never expected that they would repeat the same mistakes of the Heat in this round.

Before the game, they were supposed to have come with an aircraft carrier.

But in this small ditch of the Bobcats, the aircraft carrier they were driving was about to turn over.

Faced with such a situation, the Magic must be unwilling to accept it.

After defeating the Heat, they are enjoying the praise and halo of the world. How long will it take to throw all these halos?

This contrast is so great that people are unwilling to accept it.

Therefore, for the Magic, whenever there is any chance, they will not give up the hope of winning.

Since the Magic's starting lineup and formation in the first two games can't win anyway, then of course they have to change in this home game G3.

Although Rivers is not good at such things, it is impossible for an NBA team to have only one head coach in charge of tactics.

Yes, the tactical analysts of the Magic really couldn't help Rivers as the head coach when they were playing.

But outside of the game, it is still possible. In the past three days, the Magic players are resting and recharging their energy, while the Magic tactical analysts are working overtime with the Magic coaches such as Rivers. Follow the tactics of this series.

In the end, they got a conclusion that the whole world could guess, that is, Ginobili was switched to the starting lineup.

Ginobili made his debut. This is something the whole world can see. Of course, professionals like them will not work overtime for three days of discussion because of this.

In the past three days, the main thing they discussed was who Ginobili should replace.

Parker?

Hamilton?

Prince?

Or even a big one?

Big Ben will definitely not work.

Duncan can indeed have the ability to pick two on the inside, but the object of Duncan's pick on the two must be the kind of lightweight inside combination.

Such as Gasol and David West.

Or Tyson Chandler and Dior.

You let Duncan pick a heavy inside combination like Randolph and Bynum?

Then you really think of Duncan as a superman.

Therefore, if Ginobili wants to start, he can only find someone on the two outside lines of the Magic.

Hamilton certainly can't be played. His shooting stability is very important to the Magic. In the last game, the Bobcats can get this efficiency and this level when he is 5 of 8 in the last game. It is really no one at this level.

No matter how difficult the defense is, anyway, every game can guarantee a small 20 points.

Who can afford such a player?

In the end, these Magic tacticians gritted their teeth and removed Parker from the starting lineup.

This decision is actually a very risky decision.

Why do you say that?

Because Parker's defense against Paul was very successful in this series.

Don't look at Parker's offensive performance in this series is really not very good, but his defense is really top.

In fact, in history, Parker met Paul and he has always been able to die together. This is really no joke.

In the history of the two encounters between Paul and Parker in 2008 and 2012, the two were basically 50-50.

You attack, I attack, we don't fight defensively, so no one of us can defend anyone.

You defend, I defend, and we don’t fight offense and defense, so none of us will have a better life.

Well, when the two meet together, it feels like fighting against themselves in the mirror.

This time in accordance with the requirements of the Bobcats and the Magic, the two of course played defense.

So Parker, who puts all his energy on the defensive end, is really the best defensive against Paul.

On the contrary, it was Prince, the small forward who was placed high hopes by the Magic. This series was relatively a failure for Chen Xiao's defense.

Although Chen Xiao didn't score high and didn't take many shots, his efficiency was really high!

In this case, if Parker was brought down to Ginobili, if Chen Xiao did not suppress it and Paul was alive, then...

This is really hard to imagine.

At this time, McGrady's role can be reflected.

If there is Tracy McGrady, Magic doesn't need to be so entangled.

With McGrady, let McGrady attack and defend against Chen Xiao, can defend against Chen Xiao, and can also put pressure on Chen Xiao on the offensive end, without being so passive.

With Tracy McGrady, Ginobili came up, and even if he was not good at defending Paul, he could also play against the Bobcats with Tracy McGrady.

But Ginobili and Prince, can they play against the Bobcats?

Certainly not.

Because without McGrady, the Magic couldn't have a perfect solution when passively changing.

Therefore, they can only gamble and fight, hoping that Ginobili, who has high hopes from them, can create miracles for them.

On the court, amid the huge boos from the Magic fans, the Bobcats and the Magic players had already stood on the court after warming up.

Duncan and Bynum are already standing in the middle circle ready to jump the ball.

In the previous two jumps, Duncan and Bynum were one win and one loss.

This time, with a two-game winning streak, Bynum, who was buzzed by the national media, floated again. Therefore, the game lost the jump ball with Duncan because he was not focused enough.

After Duncan jumped the first offense for the Magic, Ginobili drove the ball forward, and Paul, who will face Ginobili in this game, will press Ginobili from the start of the game.

This is the tactical requirement of the Bobcats before the game, and it was ordered by Jordan, not Paul's private action regardless of the defensive formation.

Why did Jordan do this?

Because Jordan felt that he should put more defensive pressure on Ginobili, let him consume more because of possession or organization, and not let him put all his energy on the offensive knife.

This 20-minute Jordan has become more and more famous in the NBA over the years.

Although he is the sixth man, not many people in the NBA now regard his strength as the sixth man's strength.

Usually, players like Kobe and Chen Xiao are compared with Ginobili.

In other words, the NBA has now acquiesced that Ginobili's strength has reached a superstar level.

It's just that the strength of his superstar is not as stable and permanent as Chen Xiao and Kobe.

However, as long as he appears on the court, it is correct to treat him as a superstar.

What's more, the whole world knows in this game that Ginobili will be the main attack of the Magic.

Yes, in this game the whole world felt that Ginobili was the main attack of the Magic. The fans felt so, the experts felt so, even Jordan and Chen Xiao felt so.

So Ginobili will face tremendous pressure as soon as he comes up.

But the magic is that Ginobili did not attack directly as soon as he came up under such tremendous pressure.

After relying on Big Ben's screen to pass halftime, he made a pick-and-roll with Duncan in the three-point line.

The pick-and-rolls of Ginobili and Duncan are different from those of Parker and Duncan. In the pick-and-rolls of Parker and Duncan, Parker rarely attacks directly, but Ginobili is different.

So the defense is more difficult.

In addition, before the game, Ginobili thought that Ginobili would be the main attack of the Magic in this game, so not only Parker, but also Randolph, who was standing at the free throw line, had his eyes on Ginobili. Body.

But Ginobili did not attack or break through. Instead, he chose to pass the ball.

After receiving a pass from Ginobili, Duncan raised his hand for a two-pointer from a long distance.

Duncan's shot was not close, and Randolph symbolically sealed a step beyond the free throw line.

In the previous two games, Duncan rarely took shots from this distance. Duncan has this ability, but Duncan and Garnett are different after all. This is Garnett's regular offensive area, and Duncan's regular offensive area is at the basket.

Just like, Garnett can also play inside, but it's not often used.

The same is true for Duncan.

But this shot, Duncan shot very resolutely.

Clang!

Although he did not score, but Duncan's attack, Ginobili's pass, still surprised Jordan.

Surprised by Ginobili's cleverness, this kid knew that he would attack as soon as he came up. It was hitting the bobcat's defensive stone. He could touch it, but it hurts too much.

If Duncan opens, then his offense will be much more comfortable.

This Argentine kid really doesn't have the recklessness of those black American players in the NBA.

Duncan, on the other hand, will soon be able to understand.

After understanding Ginobili's intentions, they cooperated quite well.

After catching the ball, he didn't even intend to pass it back, so he shot it straight away.

Missed, but it did give a wake-up call to the Bobcats who were desperate to crush Ginobili on defense.

You guard me really well. In the restricted area, it is very difficult for me to get a good chance, but I can also shoot from the outside!

Don't really think that if my penalty area is blocked, I will have no threats!

"From the feel, Ginobili is even more like an organizer than Parker..."

Although Jordan on the sidelines still had the Zen master's confident smile on his face, he was thinking secretly in his heart.

Yes, Parker is more reckless than Ginobili, and he is not as clear-headed as Ginobili.

This doesn't mean to look down on Parker. The offense led by Parker is a bit different from the offense led by Ginobili.

The offense led by Parker is huge, but Duncan will be a lot tired. With Parker, Duncan needs to use his brain.

And with Ginobili, Duncan doesn't even need to use his brain, just as a tool man, Ginobili can do a lot of things.

By Parker's side, Duncan needs to consider blocking people there, how to block, and how to guide Parker to give the offense a chance.

And beside Ginobili, Duncan just had to stand there and didn't have to do anything.

If basketball is a two-player game, Duncan and Ginobili are more suitable.

So the question is, why don't the Magic usually use Duncan with Ginobili?

Because basketball is a game of five people.

The offense of the Bobcats, Ginobili, who just sorted out the Magic's offense on the offensive end, was very relaxed and freehand. When defending, Paul had not called a pick-and-roll. Ginobili was too defensive and Paul gave a breakthrough. NS.

This made Ben and Duncan, who were entangled with Randolph and Bynum, didn't react.

That is to say, Paul did not dare to continue to break through the basket after one step past the free throw line.

In this time and space, because Ginobili did not stay with the Spurs for a long time, and he did not study with Bowen that long, Ginobili may be stronger on offense than in history because of Rivers’ indulgence. .

But on defense, Ginobili's defense is not only worse, but also more undisciplined.

Because Rivers doesn't know how to blow a hairdryer, his precious apprentice Ginobili.

Parker also has this problem.

In this time and space, Parker's offense is also stronger and more enjoyable, but the defense is also slightly worse.

Rivers usually indulges Ginobili and Parker, two direct disciples who played under his hands.

Lao Li is such a person, and he is very close to his direct line.

Brother Luo has been away for so many years and has been thinking about Lao Li's goodness.

There is also wheat.

After Maizi left the magic, he even sprayed dazedly, saying that he had not been able to stop him from leaving, and had not tried his best to prevent this from happening.

But to Lao Li, Maizi really didn't say anything bad. For a person like Maizi with emotional intelligence, this is very rare.

Therefore, in coaching, Lao Li may make people feel that he has some dishes.

But when it comes to being a man, Lao Li is not black.

It may be difficult for such a coach to find a job in the NCAA, but in the NBA, a coach like Lao Li will never have a job.

Closer to home, continue to return to the game.

Because of the tactics played by the Bobcats and Magic in this series, the inside line is very crowded.

Therefore, Ginobili's aggressive defense, which is easy to lose position, is actually much less harmful.

Especially when defending Paul, Paul is shooting well now, but like Parker, he is not so confident about his shooting.

You can't enter the restricted area, and there is a slight lack of self-confidence outside, so the short-term loss of position can also minimize the harm.

As long as Ginobili is not allowed to be in front of Chen Xiao and Granger, then Ginobili's problems on the defensive end can be minimized.

This is very beneficial to the Magic.

Therefore, seeing the Bobcats' attack by Paul, Rivers on the sidelines also breathed a sigh of relief.

It was the Magic's turn to continue the attack.

This time, the Magic continued to play Ginobili and Duncan's pick-and-rolls.

Before the game, it was said that Ginobili was the main attack of the Magic in this game.

But after the game started, how could Duncan still be the main attacker?

Yes, in the first quarter of this game, Duncan made 6 shots, 4 of 6 and scored a game-high 11 points in the first quarter.

You know, the Magic team only scored 20 points.

And Ginobili, who had high hopes, only scored 1 out of 2 in the first quarter and didn't have much offense at all.

This makes Jordan's defensive plan to round up Ginobili before the game feels like an iron fist hitting cotton.

This made Jordan on the sidelines really smile on his face at this time, and he was a real MMP in his heart.

Of course, because Ginobili basically didn't have any offensive in the first quarter, so after the first quarter, the Bobcats still led 24 to 20 by 4 points.

And just when everyone was the same as Jordan, even Rivers was fooled by Ginobili's operation.

In the second quarter, Ginobili finally broke out!

And it's not a small outbreak!

It's an outbreak!

5 of 7 in a single quarter, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, 15 points in a single quarter!

Remember, this score is all taken at non-rotating time!

Ginobili is too smart, knowing that the Bobcats will not allow Randolph and Bynum to defend to the three-point line or even the free throw line. He constantly uses the pick-and-roll with Duncan to block Paul and then pull outside to shoot the three-pointer. .

Every time he hits a three-pointer, and deliberately provokes Bynum and Randolph inside, it seems to be saying to them, see if you want to keep shrinking inside.

Yes!

Ginobili's scoring and offense are not isolated, and his purpose is to solve Duncan.

As long as Randolph and Bynum are expanded, Duncan will have more room under the basket.

Duncan, who has space in the basket, is the invincible Duncan.

Duncan's long-range shot was good in the first quarter, but he couldn't kill anyone.

But Duncan's basket can kill people. Chris Bosh was killed and killed!

30 to 28!

With Ginobili's explosion, the Magic led the Bobcats by 2 points in the second quarter.

It may be a bit embarrassing to say.

This is the first time the Magic have led the Bobcats in the second quarter of this series.

The Bobcats' magic starter and super rotation ability make the second quarter the Bobcats' performance stage.

And Ginobili, this game changed everything.

If it weren't for Roy's similar burst of 6-for-5 and scored 10 points in this quarter, perhaps the first half of the game would have been reversed.

It can only be said that if only from the performance of the first half, Ginobili's performance is too good.

So after the first half of the game, Jordan did not take back his eyes from Ginobili for a long time.

This player is so showy!

"This knife is really a demon!"

Demon knife, this is a demon knife!

He alone made the Bobcats inside and outside players in the first half extremely uncomfortable.

Ginobili performed so well in the first half of this game. Of course, the happiest thing was Rivers, who was respected by Ginobili as his teacher.

Although the game fell behind by two points in the first half.

But ~www.NovelMTL.com~ this backwardness is really small and can't be smaller, and most importantly, the situation has really turned back!

"Our match with the Bobcats is 50-50!"

Looking at the technical statistics in hand, Rivers thought happily.

"Doug, the Wonder Boy seems to be a little silent in the first half of this game, even more silent than the previous two..."

and many more? !

Wonder boy, Chen, he seems a little quiet?

"We are 50-50 with a lynx that lacks Chen..."

The assistant's words made Rivers, who had been so excited, as if being thrown into an ice bucket, passively challenged him with an ice bucket.

The teenager was smiling with his teammates.

But it's so cold...
