NBA Tyrant

Chapter 41

"In the first quarter of the Magic vs. the Bucks, Howard played eight minutes of the game, and at the end of the break, it was 34:19, leading the Bucks by 15 points, and by the end of the first quarter, the Magic were only 11 points ahead, and the margin was chased to four points," said the Magic

"In the second quarter, Howard led the bench lineup and also played 8 minutes, with a score of 61:40 and a full 21-point lead, but at the end of the second quarter, the Magic only led the Bucks by 13 points at 64:51 at halftime, what does this mean?"

Let's take a look at the Magic vs. Hornets game, the first and second quarters, also after Howard went off the court, the Hornets seized the opportunity to reduce the point difference, especially from the third quarter to the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Hornets used Howard's absence to narrow the difference from more than 20 points to 11 points.

"Kenny, I said so much, do you understand what I'm trying to say?"

Barkley looked at Kenny with a pretended seriousness, and saw that Kenny was seriously thinking about his own question, Buckley snickered in his heart.

How could you possibly guess what I was thinking!I'm Sir Charles Buckley

!"Hahaha, Kenny, is this still thinking about it?, of course, it means that Howard is omnipotent!unbeatable!unstoppable!whoa~"

Buckley proudly shook his shoulders as he swayed his fat body at Kenny.

Kenny's face was full of black lines, and he was speechless about his somewhat nonsensical partner, but it seemed that Barkley had invisibly become a fan of Howard.

While Barkley didn't think of something deeper, Kenny listened to Barkley and seemed to see the Magic's current flaws.

......

San Antonio, Popovich's living room

old man Bobo listened to Barkley's words, his eyes flashed, as a head coach, a championship-level coach, the old man found more than Barkley after analyzing the video footage of the Magic game.

The Magic are definitely a playoff-level powerhouse when they have Howard, and the defensive end acts as an interior gate, limiting the opponent's interior scoring and affecting the opponent's interior and exterior coordination tactics.

At the same time, Howard also uses his actions to motivate his teammates, so that teammates can focus more on defense.

On the offensive end, Howard can easily tear apart the opponent's defense through his own rather inexplicable offense, destroying the opponent's interior line, or pinning down multiple defenses, creating open opportunities for teammates, and at the same time matching some inside and outside tactics.

And without Howard, the Magic team, under the leadership of Francis, can only be said to be a team with strong offense and weak defense, but the offensive ability is not too good compared to several top teams in the league, not to mention the defense, which is estimated to be the bottom level of the league.

This is also the reason why when Howard got off the court, the Magic team was chased close to the score, and the Magic team without a defensive core was like a loose sand.

When there is Howard, the five people on the court will cooperate with each other, and under the influence of Howard, they will independently gather a solid defensive line.

In the face of such a team, if there is no suitable opponent player to influence Howard, it will be really difficult to deal with it, but like our Spurs, we also have our own big killers, hehe......

Old man Bobo sipped his red wine smugly.

......

Los Angeles, Beverly Hills Villa

Kobe Bryant stared blankly at TV, his mind deep in thought.

Howard's half-game performance was undoubtedly perfect, but the better Howard played, the less likely the team was to trade him from the Magic.

A player who performs at such a top level is just the salary of a rookie contract, and the Magic will trade Howard unless his brain is kicked by a donkey.

Thinking of the Lakers' current interior line, Kobe Bryant was irritated.

At this time, the mobile phone on the living room table rang, and Kobe Bryant took it and looked at it, it was the agent Pelinka calling.

Kobe Bryant's eyes narrowed, and something suddenly came to mind.

"Hey, Pelinka, what's the matter with

me?" "There's a Hollywood film director who just contacted me and wanted to ask you for a cameo role, I wonder if you're interested

?" "Oh, what movie?" asked Kobe nonchalantly.

"Spider-Man 2, now the director is almost ready, just a few roles, and he needs tall and powerful people to play them!But the requirements for appearance have to be on camera, so I thought of you

!" "Haha, this director has a vision!" Kobe Bryant heard that there was a requirement for appearance, and the other party chose himself, which means that the other party affirmed his appearance, and the irritability in his heart suddenly disappeared a lot.

"Yes, I think he has a vision, haha, how about it? Do you want to try it?"

"Let's take a look at the schedule first! If I have time, I'll be fine!" Kobe Bryant is not averse to making movies, and he is quite curious about what it is like to make movies.

"Okay, then I'll help you see if the time will conflict, then first! goodbye!"

"Wait, Pelinka!" Kobe Bryant hurriedly stopped Pelinka, who was about to hang up the phone.

"Hmm, what's wrong? Kobe

?" "Pelinka, you're Howard's agent too, aren't you?" Kobe asked.

"Yes, Kobe, I told you before, you didn't say anything at the time. Pelinka thought that Kobe Bryant minded being an agent for someone else at the same time.

"Don't worry, I don't care about this, I wanted to ask you for Howard's number. Bryant explained.

"Well, then I'll send it to you later!What do you want a phone call for?"

"It's okay, if you contact Howard, just help me bring him a message, just say that the Los Angeles Purple and Gold Lakers welcome him!"

Hanging up the phone, Kobe Bryant thought about how the Lakers should play this season.

Pelinka, on the other side, smiled slightly, but he didn't expect that he just handed over an agent application by the way, and now, this Orlando employer has a skyrocketing trend, and more and more people are beginning to pay attention to him.

......

The third quarter of the game against the Magic vs. Bobcats began.

The first offense was started by the Bobcats, who played a lineup led by Francis without Howard.

Because of the 18-point lead, this point difference is relatively safe, so head coach Johnny let Howard rest off the court, let Francis control the pace of the game, stabilize the score advantage, if the lead has been more than 10 points, then Howard does not need to play in the third quarter.

However, apparently head coach Johnny looked up to the Magic's defense without Howard, the interior was blown up by the Bobcats from the start, and the Magic's offensive performance was sluggish, especially Francis, who became the core of the offense.

With a dunk from Gerard Wallace, in less than half a quarter, the Bobcats hit a 19:10 shockwave from the Magic, bringing the score straight to single digits, just nine points short.

Magic's

Francis was 1-of-5 for just 2 points and 1 assist

, and Garrity was 0-of-3 for Gallity, and the stats were full of duck eggs.

On the other hand, after the Bobcats Okafor did not have Howard's suppression, they finally played the strength of the leader

, Okafor made 3 of 3, 6 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block in a single quarter.

Blazek

was 2-of-3, 1-of-2 free throws, 5 points and 3 rebounds, Gerald Wallace was 2-of-4, 4-of-7 free throws, 8 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 3 steals

, without Howard guarding the interior, in less than 6 minutes, the three scored 19 points on the Magic's inside, and Cato and Bradley were completely unable to limit the scoring of the three.

Johnny hurriedly called a timeout to the referee, and Johnny was really surprised by the Bobcats' small scoring surge, frowning and angrily returning to the bench to take out the tactical board.

Howard was calm, got up from the bench, and high-fived his teammates who had returned.

From the very beginning, when deciding on the team's two starting bench lineups, Howard has analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of these two sets, especially the strength of the bench lineup led by Francis, and the ability to lead the team in combination with Francis.

What kind of strength they can play between them on both offensive and defensive ends, Howard probably has a number in his heart, so Howard is not worried about the current situation, because immediately, he will play, turn back the situation, and control the whole court!

......

"Okay, the Magic called a timeout, I have to say, the Bobcats just played really well, taking advantage of the shortcomings of the Magic team's strong offense and weak defense, and always choosing to score on the inside, which is a very wise choice, and suppressed the Magic team on the defensive end.

"Now that the Bobcats are on the rise, it's not so easy for the Magic team to press down, plus Okafor seems to have regained his self-confidence, and he has scored 6 points in the first quarter, and then Howard will definitely come back, I don't know if Okafor can play his due strength in the face of Howard again."

Kenny was a little excited when he saw the hope that Okafor would outperform Howard.

"Hmph! Howard is back, the Magic team will definitely re-widen the score difference, Okafor is not optimistic enough in front of Howard!"

Barkley was very upset.

After the timeout, 4 up and 4 down, Francis, Hill, Cato, Bradley were replaced, and the Magic replaced Howard, Turkoglou, Stevenson, Nelson, leaving only Mobley on the court.

Francis had just had a few shots on the pitch, which was too much for manager Johnny to tolerate, so he simply pressed on the bench.

Hill's movement and speed versus Gerald Wallace, who is so athletic, paled in comparison, so the head coach simply put Stevenson, who has the speed and movement, as a small forward to defend Gerard Wallace.

Bradley has practice shooting, but he is currently only a threat under the basket and can't open up space for Howard on the offensive end, so it would be more appropriate to send Turkoglou.

......

Howard beckoned to gather the four teammates, and had a crazy idea in his heart, the five of them formed a circle, Howard took the tactical board from the coach's hand, and wrote and drew on the tactical board again, explaining some details of the run.

Johnny stood awkwardly outside the circle, touching his nose, walking or standing.

The referee came and urged him to hurry into the game.

Howard raised his right hand into a fist, and the other four immediately joined in with their fists.

"Brothers, Tyrant!" Howard yelled

, "Town!", X4 "Tyrant!", "Slaughter!", X4

"Rush!", "

Suppress the heroes with the power of a tyrant!, Slaughter all enemies with the might of a tyrant

!
