NBA Tyrant

Chapter 119

On the evening of December 18th, Amway Arena.

Howard sat quietly in front of the technical desk, looking up at the highlights of the Magic players playing on the big screen overhead.

Tonight's game is the first game back at home after three consecutive away games.

Either way, Howard is determined to win, and he has to play a beautiful victory.

"Hey, Howard, don't save my face tonight, even if you ravage the Nuggets without me!"

Anthony didn't know when he came to Howard's side, covered his mouth with his hand, and looked up at the big screen with Howard, as if he wasn't talking.

"Haha, what you said, if you are heard by the Nuggets team, I'm afraid they will not treat you as a traitor! When the time comes, the whole team should collectively resist and exclude

you, if you let the media know, it will be even worse, your reputation will soon become extremely stinky, and I am afraid that no team will tolerate you in the future."

Howard pulled the collar of the team's sports jacket to his mouth to hide the shape of his mouth so that he would not be captured by the media and lip styling experts.

"Heh, I'm a proud kid, but every team is eager to play, they wish I could play on their team, no one on the Nuggets team dares to offend me, I'm worried about a fart!"

Anthony didn't take Howard's words to heart at all.

In Anthony's heart, he felt that NBA teams had to revolve around him.

Seeing Anthony so arrogant, Howard shrugged indifferently.

"Since you're not worried, then I don't need to say more, but why can't you play tonight?"

Howard looked Anthony up and down, and he didn't see any injuries at all.

"Huh~ Don't care, someone is too annoying!" As

soon as he said the reason, Anthony's face darkened directly, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief and glanced coldly at the direction of his Nuggets bench.

"Okay! I don't ask. Seeing

that the referee had already walked to the midfield and was about to signal for the opening, Howard patted Anthony on the shoulder, took off his sports coat and walked onto the court.

Due to the last game between the two teams, Camby was directly hit by Howard and injured and had to recuperate for two weeks, so in this game, Coach Bouzderrick arranged Nene Hilario as the starting center.

Nene's physical fitness was also very exciting when he was young, but with Howard Derby, it can only be said that there is a difference between adults and children.

The two sides jumped the ball, and Howard still won easily.

The Magic's first offense, Howard's old rules, ran to the waist position and jammed Nene before receiving a pass from Francis.

"Forgot to ask, is Camby seriously injured?" Howard

leaned his back to Nene and watched the Nuggets' defense while trying to distract Nene with his words.

"It's okay, it's good ...... now!"

The honest Nene, who was concentrating on going all out to defend against Howard, heard Howard's question coldly, and was honestly ready to reply.

But he didn't want to, Howard didn't wait for Nene to finish the last three words, he turned around quickly, and before Nene could react, he jumped into the air and dunked his hands against the basket.

"Haha! Nene, you can't be distracted in a game, especially when you're defending.

With an easy dunk, Howard gave Nene a smug look and hammered down his chest, reaching out his index finger to Anthony on the bench, as if to say that this opening slam dunk is for you.

On his home turf, Howard doesn't know what it means to be low-key.

Anthony is also not used to the arrogant Howard, and responds with a cold direct middle finger.

"Damn, this vile and shameless villain!

Nene clenched his huge fist, and the muscles on his arms were tense and the lines were uneven, giving people a full sense of strength.

After glaring at Howard's back and saying this, Ne indignantly served to Boykins from the baseline.

The Nuggets now lack Anthony, a strong scoring point, and the Magic team has Howard on the inside, Kenyon Martin and Nene can't play at all, so the only thing that can be relied on on the offensive end is Andre Miller and Boykins.

And the Magic team defended Andre Miller with a very good single defense ability of Battier, so the Nuggets struggled very much on the offensive end tonight.

In the first quarter, Howard began to go all out after opening the dunk, and the Magic's first five offenses were all executed by Howard alone.

In the face of Nenei's concentrated defense, he still shot 5 of 5 and scored 10 points lightly, quickly driving the state of his teammates.

In the sixth minute, the Magic had a 13-point advantage at 20-7.

After that, the Magic replaced Howard, Turkoglou, and Battier, and sent in sixth man Mobley, Garryty, and Cato to start trying to play the newly developed sixth man strategy.

The first time he showed and tested it in the game, Howard didn't expect that the effect was surprisingly good, or that Mobley was in extremely brave shape.

Mobley and his good buddy Francis have a very tacit understanding, and with the new tactics, they unexpectedly released Mobley's scoring firepower.

He was 4-of-5 in the half-quarter and 2-of-2 from three-point range, handing over an excellent record of 10 points and 2 rebounds in the half-quarter.

Similarly, because Mobley shared the Nuggets' defensive attention, Hill faced a disorganized, average outside Nuggets guard.

played 10 minutes, made 4 of 6, and got 9 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.

On the other hand, the Nuggets were destroyed by Howard on the inside on the defensive end, stabbed into a sieve by Mobley and Hill on the outside, and couldn't find a touch on the offensive end.

The team only hit 8 of 26 shots, 0 of 5 three-pointers, and the shooting rate was 30%.

In the first quarter, the Magic 43:19 Nuggets, leading the Nuggets by a full 24 points.

The outstanding performance of the Magic players made the home fans fall directly into madness, after all, this point difference, in 2004, the era when three points were not the main means of scoring, it can be said that it is very difficult to chase points, and the final result of the game was basically announced in a single quarter in the first quarter.

Coming back in the second quarter, Howard did not let up, continuing to lead the team to score strongly on the offensive end, and focused on defense on the defensive end, constantly brutally ravaging Nene and Kenyon Martin on the inside.

Howard, who played the whole quarter, was 8 of 10, not only scoring efficiently, but also creating opportunities for Mobley and Stevenson many times according to tactics.

At the same time, he uses his height to gain the advantage of excellent vision and constantly conducts and distributes the ball.

At the end of the second quarter, with a single quarter score of 39:19, the Nuggets were blown up again in the second quarter, and Howard scored 20 points alone, which was higher than the score of the entire Nuggets.

The Magic 82:38 Nuggets at halftime created the largest point difference in the history of the Nuggets by 44 points at halftime.

In the second half, Howard only played 6 minutes, played the entire 24 minutes, and fixed his personal data at 41 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

Mobley was the star of the second half, and after the game went into garbage time early, head coach Johnny kept Mobley on the court in order to test his sixth-man tactics more.

In the whole game, as the sixth man, Mobley played as many as 34 minutes, 14 of 22, 3 of 6 three-pointers, and exploded 35 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals.

In the end, the Magic team 117:64 Nuggets, creating a tragic 53-point tragedy.

Everyone on the Magic team happily vented their unhappiness on the Nuggets, each of them performed positively and was in a brave state, and 9 of the 12 players scored double-doubles.

After the game, Bouzdrick looked at Anthony with a gloomy face and hugged Howard lightly.

What trick Anthony played today, Buzderrick knew very well in his heart, but he never thought that Anthony would really unilaterally declare a truce in order to exclude himself and disregard the interests of the team.

From the beginning of the season to the present, because Anthony is not attentive to defense, the team has not formed a proper defensive system.

Tonight, Anthony is missing on the offensive end, and with Kenyon Martin and Andre Miller and a few others, they will face the league's super dark horse Magic.

As for whether he can win the game, Bouzderrick himself does not have much hope, after all, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, but Buzderrick did not expect that the team would lose with 53 points, and the loss was extremely humiliating.

This point difference is enough to nail the Nuggets to the historical shame column of the NBA's largest point difference forever, and Buzderrick can already imagine that the next day he and the Nuggets will be famous in the United States and will be ridiculed endlessly.

At the post-game press conference, when reporters asked Bouzdrick why the Nuggets lost so badly tonight, Bouzdrick no longer put up with Anthony.

With the mentality that since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, Buzdrick spoke.

"The Magic are a new team, they gathered the pressure of the previous three consecutive defeats, and they turned into motivation tonight, and they worked together and united as one, so to speak, and they slaughtered us the whole game.

And we, the personnel are not organized, the morale of the army is weak, I still only knew before the game that Anthony will not be able to play tonight, which disrupted my overall arrangement

, tonight on both offensive and defensive ends we did not come up with the strength to match the Magic team, I am sorry, as the head coach, I did not make timely adjustments

, I will go to understand Anthony's situation later, so that I can adjust the lineup and tactics later. "

Wow!" the

reporters present looked at Buzdrick on the stage in surprise.

The meaning of this sentence does not mean that Anthony is suspended for no reason, and ignores team discipline and does not report in advance.
