Now in the game between the 76ers and the Magic, Howard and Wang Kai are both suppressed and scored by role players.

After the 76ers scored, the Magic immediately advanced quickly. Although the Magic had a big center, the pace was not slow at all.

Nelson took the ball and pushed it over. Howard followed up from behind to cover Nelson.

With this cover, Nelson was instantly vacant. With such an opportunity to get a vacant position, Nelson immediately pulled up and threw for a mid-range shot.

Basketball simply won!

This is a typical Nelson-style play. Sometimes he looks particularly impulsive and he does it himself with a slight chance. He often uses Howard as a pure blue collar, and he doesn't give the ball to Howard at all, nor does he give the Tkoglu, who is responsible for organizing the sermon. He just plays by himself.

Nelson's playing style is not wrong, but the wrong thing is that Nelson's own ability is limited.

If Nelson really has the strength of the top outside line, playing like this will definitely attract a lot of attention from the opponent and help the team kill the opponent faster.

But Nelson does not have the top strength. He is just an ordinary defender who is sometimes a little bit shy. Sometimes he seems to score a lot of points, but his overall damage to the team is definitely much more serious than what points he gets.

Nelson himself is a girl and insists on doing the lady's work. In this case, the Magic management and the head coach are still crazy, and they have been using Nelson like this. It can be seen how problematic the Magic management is here.

Nelson made two points, and Howard could only run back with a smile.

The 76ers also pushed the ball at the bottom line at a very fast speed. The ball was pushed forward, and Wang Kai was surrounded by Bogans, and he couldn't get the ball.

So Wang Kai could only take Bogans to the side and give the space to his teammates. Iguodala went over to receive the basketball at this time. When facing Tkoglu, he moved very casually. He suddenly stepped back and threw away Tkoglu and then made a jump shot.

Before taking action, Iguodala's movements were really perfect, very beautiful, with very good footsteps and ball control, and the opportunity came out, but Iguodala was finished as soon as she took action. It was obvious that the ball was floating, which was not right.

The ball didn't even touch the basket, and hit Howard's head directly.

Howard took the ball and turned around and passed the ball to Tkoglu. The Magic pushed it forward again. At this time, Howard did not fall to the low post, but came up to cover Tkoglu.

Tkoglu took a big step to break through and entered the penalty area of ​​the 76ers. When the 76ers contracted, Tkoglu's choice was different from Nelson. He raised his basketball and turned around and passed it to Howard who followed up.

Howard got the ball, and the 76ers rushed towards Howard. Howard couldn't beat four hands with two fists, so he passed the ball to Lewis.

Lewis was in the open space. When Wang Kai saw that Lewis had leaked again, he hurriedly rushed to defend. But when he moved, Bogans behind him leaked.

Lewis received the ball and passed it to Bogans, who took the three-point line out.

"brush"

Bogans' three-pointer steadily entered the 76ers' basket, and Chicks stood up from the bench at once.

In recent times, Magic's firepower has been significantly more powerful than the 76ers, and the Magic's hit rate is also higher. Although they are all character players scoring, Magic has now scored 10 points, and 76ers have scored 4 points. The gap has widened to 6 points, and this gap has tended to widen.

Chicks began to restless! He immediately shouted on the sideline: "Play the catch tactics, play the catch tactics!"

Now that the score difference is about to widen, he still has to pass the basketball to Wang Kai.

With Chiks' command, the 76ers came over again and immediately played a catch tactic for Wang Kai. The 76ers stood in a horizontal row at the free throw line. Wang Kai ran without the ball and ran between the two people in an 8-character shape, and this time he finally threw Bogans away.

Wang Kai received the basketball at an open space. He looked up and saw that no one was defending him. Wang Kai directly jumped.

But Wang Kai didn't even hit the empty shot. Wang Kai's touch was completely unstable today, which means that Wang Kai didn't start to draw at all.

Wang Kai did not relieve the team's point gap, and the rebound was snatched by the Magic again.

The Magic scored consecutively. At this time, the Magic came again, and Nelson's confusion was in trouble again. As soon as he ran over with the ball, he didn't even see his teammates breaking straight and stabbed towards the 76ers' basket.

Howard is very hard in the Magic's defense, and the 76ers' defense is not a vegetarian, a team of muscle men.

Nelson did not have the ability to fight hard, so Nelson was immediately double-snatched by 76ers, and he forced his attacks in the crowd. Iguodala came from behind, and without any mercy, just blocked the shot.

Nelson's layup was knocked down, and Vakovia exclaimed when Iguodala blocked.

The fans of the 76ers all breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the ball drawn by Iguodala was suddenly intercepted by Howard in the air.

Howard, who intercepted the ball, hit the ground with his feet and immediately bounced back like a spring.

Although a bunch of people came up to defend him, those with heights were not as fast as him, those with bounces were not as large as him, and those with sizes couldn't jump up.

The 76ers were at the basket, but Howard was still at the highest point. With one hand, Howard threw the basketball into the 76ers' basket.

Howard scored points under the 76ers' strict defense. His influence on the court is indeed everywhere. As long as he is on the court and doesn't know what opportunity, if you slacken a little bit, he will jump out.

Howard's talent is too outstanding, and no one can do anything about this.

The Magic scored another 2 points, which made the Magic 12; 4 led the 76ers by 8 points, and the lead in the first quarter was 8 points. This was a fatal thing. Especially the 76ers were still a team that was not so good at scoring.

At this time, Chicks could only call a timeout. Now the problem with the 76ers is not on defense, but on scoring. Both teams are mainly playing role players, but the Magic obviously scores more points, so there is no need to worry about scoring. The 76ers have fewer points, and it is very difficult to score.

At this time, Chiks was really worried about chasing points. If you want to increase your firepower, you must replace people, but the question is who to replace them.

If Wang Kai goes on, he can only release Magic's tighter defense. Although Wang Kai doesn't score on the court now, he attracts Magic's defensive attention wherever he goes.

It would be even worse to be replaced by Andre Miller. Andre Miller is the only reliable point guard for the 76ers now.

Evans and Dalemport shouldered the heavy responsibility of resisting Howard. After all, the only way for the 76ers is to replace the team's spiritual leader Iguodala. If a team wants to catch up with points, they have to replace the spiritual leader first. This method of substitution is indeed interesting.

Chicks replaced Iguodala with Louis Williams, and then asked Wang Kai to play as a small forward. The position was slightly replaced!

The game came back, and Louis Williams was really easy to use. He got up and threw away Tkoglu and scored two points.

Louis Williams scored, but the Magic did not stop scoring. On the defensive end, Louis Williams couldn't stand Bogans because he was too short. Bogans is a very strong player. Bogans also came up and beat Louis Williams.

When Chicks came back from substitution, Williams did perform well and shouldered the responsibility of the team's scoring. He made up for Wang Kai's lack of difficulty in getting the ball, but at the same time, the Magic's scoring did not stop.

During this period of the first quarter, the Magic maintained a high hit rate. From the start of the replacement of Louis Williams to the end of the first quarter, the score difference between the two teams was still hovering around 8 points.

At this time, the Magic started to replace the substitute players calmly. The Magic's substitute players lineup was quite neat, including Carlos Arroyo, JJ Redick, Tony Barty, Brian Cook, and Gotat.

The Magic's substitute lineup has more suitable people in every position. In terms of lineup depth, the 76ers really can't compare with others.

What should I do if the team has no depth? The solution Chicks has come up with is very simple, just not let your main player rest.

While playing as a substitute, he continued to let Louis Williams play, Iguodala, and the defender added a Geelysek, and the two insides were replaced by Booth and Randolph.

Chicks is trying to squeeze the physical strength of the main players. This is just that the 76ers have been resting for a week. If they play like this continuously, the 76ers will really not be able to hold on.

The two teams replaced the substitute lineup, and the Magic began to play the game of high pick-and-roll tactics in a comprehensive way. The entire team kept pick-and-rolling, breaking through, interspersed, and then pick-and-roll.

The Magic's tactic is really simple, but it is very suitable for them. There are many shooters in the Magic's lineup, and Gott is also particularly good at cutting the basket at the empty basket. The space is easy to create, and the 76ers' substitute lineup is a little slower.

Gott got a free cut and widened the gap to 10 points. Then Louis Williams also stopped the engine on the 76ers. Looking back, the Magic made another breakthrough pass, and JJ Redick made a three-pointer in the bottom corner, helping the team widen the gap to 13 points.

The 76ers were 13 points behind in the first quarter! Chicks immediately became anxious and jumped up and shouted that he wanted the team to strengthen their defense.

The next point was more than one point, and the 76ers did defend, but they did not make much achievements in offense.

At the end of the game, the difference between the two teams was still 13 points.

The 76ers fell too far in the first quarter, and it was reflected in the overall game, and the 76ers were very difficult to play. The magic was easy to play!

In this way, the experts who once ridiculed the 76ers and those who predicted that the 76ers would fail suddenly found the topic again!
