Chapter 54 Romantic Maddie

Plessy called a timeout, frowning.

In fact, the Magic defended very well today. The Bulls had a lot of young troops, and the Magic's old arms and legs all caught up.

But the Bulls' shooting percentage is not high, and the Magic are even worse.

The problem lies with McGrady.

Plessy stared at McGrady unkindly, suspecting that McGrady was trying to undermine him.

Before Rivers dismissed get out of class, McGrady did his best.

Otherwise, why don't you dare to break out, and keep reaching for the ball, and keep forcing the shot.

Although Mercer's defense is poor, his height of 201cm is there. He was put in a position by the Magic in the summer. When he beat the Magic, he became energetic and defended desperately. At this time, can he attack less and pass more?

"Tracy, please adjust after the game." Plessy didn't say anything harsh.

How Rivers got dismissed was because he didn't have a good relationship with the two stars in the team. This is a lesson learned from the past.

Maddie sat down expressionlessly, and Hill came over from behind and offered a few words of encouragement.

He also saw that this kid had some problems today.

It's not easy for me to come here, and you are playing against a team like the Bulls. You won't let me watch you lose.

After McGrady came off the court, the Magic's offense suddenly became smoother.

Armstrong made sudden shots and scored 5 points, leading his team to catch up with the score in an instant.

And defense.

Artest gasped for breath. The Magic's defense today actually made him feel a little suffocated. It was too tight.

After a wave of 10 to 2, before the end of the first quarter, the Magic successfully overtook the score.

Floyd sat back contentedly.

This rhythm is right.

But he didn't sit still for too long. As soon as McGrady came up in the second quarter, the Magic's offense collapsed again.

There was no score for 4 whole minutes.

There were even boos in the stands.

Booing McGrady.

In the NBC studio, Hannah Sturm couldn't help but said: "What is Tracy doing today? His touch is so bad."

So far, 11 out of 2, which can be described as a disaster-level performance.

Kevin Johnson did see some problems: "His shooting posture seems to have changed, and his release point has been raised."

After all, he is a professional and can see even the smallest changes.

"The question is, what is the Magic's shooting coach doing? Even if they have to adjust their shooting posture, it shouldn't be during the season."

With a dense schedule, there is no time for you to adjust slowly and adapt to new shooting postures. Muscle memory is not easy to change, and it directly affects your shooting percentage.

41 is better than 47!

At halftime, the Magic fell behind again.

Plessy looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, confirming that this kid McGrady was just playing himself.

He almost wanted to cry. Why did I provoke you to do this to me?

Was the training too harsh?

If you're not satisfied, just say it privately, don't mess with the game, it's about professionalism.

At halftime, Hill ran to the locker room.

Chen Yu didn't follow him and took the opportunity to drain the water. After draining the water, he came out and just sat down when he received a text message from Hardaway.

"Tell this idiot Tracy that I asked him to shoot more, not wasteful shots. Before he could walk, he started to run away. He still played the same way as before, so he said I was staring at him."

Chen Yu was stunned.

Staring at him?
Did something happen to these two people that they didn't know about?

Return from halftime timeout.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Yu grabbed McGrady, who was about to play, and showed him Hardaway's text message.

"come on."

Chen Yu patted McGrady on the back.

Hardaway talked about shooting, and Chen Yu also discovered that McGrady's shooting seemed to be particularly inaccurate today.

At first, Chen Yu thought it was due to injury and looked at it with his all-seeing eye.

But there are no problems, and the muscle strain in my shoulder has long since healed.

Maddie looked very excited when she saw the text message. "Tell Penny that I will play well." McGrady said and hurried onto the court.

This was a live broadcast, the camera was always pointed at McGrady, and Chen Yu's movements were also captured by the camera.

Hannah asked confused: "What is Chen doing? It seems he showed Tracy his cell phone."

Kevin Johnson was also surprised. He thought for a moment and said, "By the way, the Magic don't have a team doctor. Why not find Chen? He looks more professional."

The two didn't have time to discuss it further, the game had already begun.

Mercer was still working hard. After catching the ball, he hesitated and wanted to hit McGrady.

But this time, he miscalculated, everything was empty, and he suddenly felt bad.

The ball was knocked away.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Armstrong caught the basketball. When he raised his head, a figure rushed out like a sharp arrow.

The number 1 behind is particularly conspicuous.

The throw was a long pass. McGrady lightly stretched his arms to receive the ball, crossed the free throw line with one foot, and jumped into the air. His stretched body was like a glider, and he smashed the ball into the basket.

The scene was silent for a moment, then burst into cheers.

"Wonderful dunk, look, how high he jumped!" The on-site commentator Guokas slammed the table excitedly.

On the sidelines, Hill also sat up like a spring and cheered loudly.

Chen Yu, who was sitting next to him, was shocked.

When someone scores a goal, why are you so excited? Aren't you afraid of getting angry?
However, this goal is really cool.

Chen Yu raised his hands to applaud, and his eyes fell on McGrady's lumbar spine.

Although his scoliosis is not very serious, it is stunted and there are hidden dangers.

If there is always a dunk like this, it will be troublesome if something goes wrong. After all, it is the spine.

Chen Yu knew that Plessy had been training extremely hard during this period.

In fact, in Chen Yu's view, Tracy McGrady needs to exercise to improve the support strength of his back muscles, but he must also do so in a moderate way. If something goes wrong, it will be a big problem.

After all, he is only 21 and has a long career ahead of him.

What does that sentence say? Young people don’t know how valuable their health is. When they get sick in old age, they shed tears in vain. The body already has hidden dangers, so it is even more important to pay attention to its maintenance.

This ball seemed to activate McGrady, and he suddenly returned to his most familiar style of play.

Not only did he pick up the sharpest weapon, breakthrough, but he also found his shooting touch.

In the third quarter, McGrady made 8 of 6 in a single quarter and scored a full 14 points.

In this quarter, they not only overtook the score, but also defeated the Bulls.

Floyd finally sat back safely. During the halftime break, he really considered letting Mercer, who played the best game, take a rest.

In the fourth quarter, McGrady was still unstoppable, hitting 7 of 5 in a single quarter and scoring another 11 points.

In the first half, McGrady only scored 6 points in total.

In the second half, they scored a full 25 points.

94:85.

The Magic successfully won this rookie pecking battle.

At the end of the game, a large number of reporters immediately crowded around Tracy McGrady, who scored the highest score in the game.

"It felt great, we practiced hard, everyone worked hard, defended well, and then we won the game, and that's the most important thing."

At this point, McGrady saw the camera in front of him and suddenly came up to him. In the confused eyes of the photographer, he breathed at the camera, then drew a heart with his fingers and wrote two letters.

"A, H, shouldn't it be CH?" Kevin Johnson asked doubtfully.

He did remember that there were media reports that McGrady’s current girlfriend was named Clelenda Harris.

The initials should be CH.

"I guess I wrote it wrong by accident." Next to her, Hannah smiled like an aunt: "I didn't expect him to be quite romantic."

Kevin Johnson nodded in agreement, probably because he wanted to confess his love to his girlfriend.

Even if you don't care, you can write the wrong letters.

At the same time, Hardaway also saw the letters and hearts on the lens.

"Shet!"

Hardaway shivered hard, especially after hearing Hannah say that McGrady was quite romantic, he felt bad all over.

"How romantic!"

Hardaway's wailing sounded in the villa.
