NBA Tyrant

Chapter 112

Buckner didn't give the ball to Anthony again, but followed the pre-game tactical arrangement, passed honestly to Andre Miller, and then started to run.

After a few games and ball passing, Buckner got rid of Francis on cover and hit a 2-pointer from mid-range to score the Nuggets' first goal.

After that, the two teams began to play back and forth normally, but Anthony seemed to be playing very unhappy, accustomed to playing as he pleased, uninhibited, and hated the restrictions of coach Bouzderrick's style of play.

The fact that he couldn't play as much as he wanted in the game made Anthony feel like he was being tied down, which seriously affected his game form.

Anthony played 10 minutes in the first quarter, shooting just 2-of-7 from the field and scoring just four points.

And Marcus Camby and Kenyon Martin, because of the presence of Howard on the inside.

The two interior lines who only eat cake and attack under the basket on the offensive end were both honest after being blocked by Howard by 1 each.

Unless Howard is pulled out of the interior, the two will never shoot on the inside.

Howard also played 10 minutes in the first quarter, 4 of 4, got 9 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks.

On the defensive end, everyone on the Nuggets team was suppressed, so that they did not dare to enter the interior to score at will.

In the first quarter, the Magic 32:27 Nuggets.

In the second quarter, Andre Miller of the Nuggets exploded, facing Stevenson's defense, and repeatedly rushed into the interior without Howard to complete the layup.

After 3 minutes of play, the score was overtaken by the Nuggets, Johnny could only call a timeout to let Howard play again, and the Nuggets also sent the team's real scoring machine, Carmelo Anthony, to the court.

Obviously, Coach Bouzderrick just wanted to use the second quarter bench time to pull the score away and get the half-time advantage.

When he met Anthony at the technical table, Howard ignored Anthony and went straight to the front court to get ready to participate in the offense.

Anthony snorted and walked behind Howard.

"Rookie, get ready to lose!

Howard didn't look back, picking at his ear with his right hand.

"Where are the flies buzzing, it's annoying!"

the Magic attacked, and Howard handed Gallity a screen and pass at the free-throw line to block Anthony again.

However, this time Anthony did not disappoint Bouzdrick, quickly bypassing Howard and actively chasing Gallity, jumping with all his strength when Galliti jumped, interfering with Gallity's shot.

Bang!

Hit the iron, and the basketball was taken by Camby.

I don't know what communication Anthony and Bouzderrick did off the court, Anthony is no longer like in the first quarter, bored and dizzy on the court, insisting on hitting the inside, and facing Howard with an iron head.

As soon as he came on the court in the second quarter, Anthony began to play his role as an offensive kaleidoscope, what a pull-up jump shot, catch-and-shoot jumper, long-distance 2-point shot, three-point shot, full of tricks, and scored 6 goals in a row on the offensive end.

Anthony's wonderful play, coupled with Andre Miller's consecutive scores before, the two jointly led the Nuggets to play a wave of 18:0 offensive climax, which instantly ignited the whole court, and the Nuggets team was like a rainbow.

At this time, the Magic 42:56 Nuggets, trailing by 14 points.

"I said, rookie! I'm going to exert my strength, I'm going to get 40+ on your heads in this game, wait to lose!"

After the goal, Anthony deliberately ran past Howard with a smug face.

Howard didn't respond to Anthony, just gave him a cold look.

During this time, Howard didn't shoot, and kept planning and covering his teammates, finding a touch for his teammates, but unfortunately, except for Nelson, Turkogru, Garriti and Stevenson failed to score.

"Leave it to me, brothers! It's only 14 points behind, it's only a matter of minutes to catch up! When defending, put a breakthrough shot, I'm on the inside, don't be afraid of being passed, especially Garriti, defend against Anthony..."

With his back to Nene Hilario, this strong center, his strength should not be underestimated, Howard didn't want to consume too much physical energy, and after shaking his shoulders from side to side, he raised his hand to shoot.

Nene was easily shaken up by Howard, who smiled at the corner of his mouth and turned around to hook his hand to hit the board easily.

"twelve!" Howard

coldly shouted the number 12 next to Anthony, narrowing the gap to 12 points.

Anthony naturally knew what Howard meant, and his eyes became sharp.

It's a pity that the Nuggets attacked, no matter how the Nuggets blocked and dismantled, the Magic team defended by switching defenses, desperately defending shots, and did not give the Nuggets a chance to shoot in an empty space.

The ball ended up in Andre Miller's hands and he lost it.

The Magic attacked again, Howard held the ball to the inside basket, and it was just a simple triple threat to pass the 22-year-old defensive immature Nene and score with a light basket.

"Ten!"

This time Howard just looked at Anthony without making a sound, and made a lip shape to read 10 in English.

Howard and the Magic bench were all dedicated to defense, and the offensive end was all in Howard's control, and slowly, the Magic gradually chased the score closer, when there were 4 minutes left in the second quarter.

With the score 58-60 Nuggets, trailing by just two points, Howard grabbed the ball with one hand and sideways to Marcus Camby, who had switched back from the bench to defend himself.

"Do you think you can stop me?" "

Even though it's coming, rookie, there's a lot of nonsense!" As

a defensive titarant, although Howard scored several goals, Marcus Camby still didn't intimidate Howard at all.

"Okay! I'm going to turn around here and dunk my hands violently! Defend me!"

Howard pointed to the position of the penalty area, leaned on Camby, and after dribbling with his back, he directly knocked Camby, strode around, and came to the place where he had just fingered.

Without any hesitation, ignoring whether Camby was at his side or not, Howard kicked up with both feet, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and exposed the green tendons of his two thick arms.

Howard faced the basket and exploded with all his might.

"Boom!"

Bang!

The basket was instantly deformed when it was pressed, and the huge force made the basket tilt sharply to the side, and Howard, who was hanging on it, felt as if he was going to pull the basket down, and quickly let go of his hands.

After hitting the ground, Howard looked up at the violently shaking basketball hoop in worry.

And at Howard's feet, there was a person lying down, who had just confronted Howard physically in mid-air and wanted to prevent Howard's dunk - Marcus Chobi.

"I'm rubbing, boss! Can you be more violent! I thought the basketball hoop was going to fall apart!"

Both ignored Camby, who was lying down.

The Nuggets called a timeout, the score was tied and Buzderrick couldn't stand still anymore, and asked the team doctor to check if there was anything wrong with Camby.

After returning from the timeout, Anthony seemed to be affected by Howard's violent dunk and the Magic's scoring performance, and began to become careless again on the defensive end.

After Howard simply made a block for Hill, Anthony, who was blocked, gave up chasing Hill, and after bypassing Howard, he slowly chased after Hill.

And Camby didn't step forward to switch to Hill, because Howard ran to the basket after covering, and Camby was physically lacking in skills, so it was impossible to ignore Howard.

Hill, who got an empty position, received a pass from Francis, made a direct jump shot, and scored 2 points easily.

On the sidelines, Bouzderrick saw Anthony's sloppy defensive attitude, and lowered his head and pinched his eyebrows with a headache.

After that, he was stealing the ball by Hill in an attack, and Anthony didn't turn back in time to chase Hill, and directly stopped in frustration, just watched Hill run away, and easily completed the dunk along the way.

Bouzdrick angrily called a timeout again.

After returning from the pause, it was obvious that Anthony's face was very bad.

"Hey, Camby, Anthony is being scolded by your head coach!" Howard

stood beside Camby, his voice full of schadenfreude.

"It's all about you! rookie!"

However, Anthony obviously became much more active in the next defense, but he paid 2 fouls, and in order to ensure the playing time in the future, Bouzdrick had to reluctantly replace Anthony, the only offensive stronghold.

Taking advantage of the Nuggets' lack of Anthony's big killer, Howard was still very active on the offensive end, resolutely creating damage on the inside, and beating several players on the Nuggets' interior to death.

Played 9 minutes, 9-of-12, and after taking a 9-point lead for the team, with 29 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, Howard went off the second quarter with 1 minute left.

But the game is always changing in an instant, and as soon as Howard goes, the Magic's empty interior line instantly becomes the weakness of the Nuggets' key impact.

Coupled with Hill, Francis, and Tekoglu's hands suddenly cooled down, and in the last 1 minute of the second quarter, the Magic team did not score a goal, and the original 9-point advantage was chased to only 2 points.

At halftime, the Magic 64-62 Nuggets.

In the second half, when Howard came back and played with the starters, he began to suppress the Nuggets on both offensive and defensive ends.

With four minutes left in the third quarter, Howard faced Camby.

"Hey, defensive, what's going on? Can you hold on? Do you want me to release the water?"

At this time, the Magic 81:73 Nuggets, in the lead, Howard, who was comfortable on the inside, couldn't help but joke with Camby.

"It's so verbose, if you want to fight, you can fight, what a smug, so much!

Camby was suppressed by Howard at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends throughout the game, and was also knocked to the ground many times, how unhappy and unhappy he was in his heart, and he couldn't see Howard's smug face.

"FK! OK!" Howard

sank his face and hit it in a three-stage run, knocking Camby off the baseline and dunking to give the Magic a 10-point lead.

And Camby, who fell to the ground, never got back up again in this fight, clutching his chest, curling his body, and moaning in pain from his mouth.

Nuggets head coach Bouzderrick clearly saw the painful look on Camby's face this time, and quickly called a timeout and asked the team doctor to go and check on him.

Buzdrick looked at Howard deeply, and his eyes were both appreciative and headache for Howard.

Bouzderrick knows very well that the offensive and defensive ends of the Magic team are carried by the rookie champion in front of him, and he has single-handedly influenced and improved the strength level of the entire Magic team, which is really amazing, and he can have the ability to dominate and control the game at such a young age.

It's a pity that Howard is the opponent, then, Howard is a super big problem, unless there is a player on the team who can consume Howard on the defensive end, the limit is not to think about it, as long as it can consume Howard and weaken Howard's offensive and defensive role, then it can improve the win rate against the Magic team.

After that, Bouzderrick once again sent Nene Hilario to defend Howard, so that he and Martin formed an inside twin tower, as long as Howard went to the basket, he resolutely wrapped Howard and consumed Howard's physical energy.

There is no way, Howard's interior destructive power is not stopped by the Nuggets' individual defense.

But this completely released a group of shooters from the Magic team, and in the second half of the game, we saw that the Magic team had a lot of open shots, and the game turned into a shooting practice highlight.

At the end of the game, Howard was stunned to score 8 assists in the second half, played 42 minutes, and scored 36 points, 13 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 steals and 5 blocks.

Another triple-double.

Magic 124: 115 Nuggets.

Anthony played 38 minutes, 28 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, losing to Howard in both personal data and games.
