At halftime, Zhou Yuan made 12 out of 15 shots, 5 out of 6 three-pointers, and 2 free throws.
He scored 31 points, plus 5 rebound, 7 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
Super all-rounded data!
He had a tall figure and explosive physical talent.
It ensured that Zhou Yuan could get beautiful rebounding and blocking numbers.
He had unsolvable shooting and offensive organizing abilities, and he was also guaranteed to score and assist.
The atmosphere in the Magic locker room was unusually heavy.
Even though the difference was only one point.
However, they were tied with a weak team.
Obviously, it was not something the Magic, who were aiming to win the championship, could accept.
Not to mention, Zhou Yuan, a rookie, had scored 30 points in the first half.
Magic was destined to become the backdrop for Zhou Yuan's creation of history.
Van Gundy knocked on the tactical board.
"There's only one way to defend. Seal Zhou Yuan, seal Zhou Yuan! This guy is a monster."
"His breakthrough should be his weak point. Continue to defend alone and increase his strength. I will send four people to fight him in turns and exhaust him to death.”
"In addition, pay attention to the weak side's defense, especially to cut off his passing route. The other players of the Knicks could be left empty.”
Against a team with a superstar.
He would either defend against this super giant or defend against his teammates.
The specifics would depend on the situation.
Even though Zhou Yuan had completely gone berserk, the scores of both sides were still in a stalemate.
According to the normal strategy, Van Gundy would definitely choose to let Zhou Yuan play and strangle the other Knicks players.
This way, when Zhou Yuan was tired and his efficiency dropped, he could reap the rewards.
However, Van Gundy and the Orlando Magic players were a little angry and wanted to strangle Zhou Yuan.
A powerhouse who was determined to win the championship.
Who could take it lying down when a rookie called him daddy?
Even if he lost, he would kill Zhou Yuan!
On the Knicks 'side, D'Antoni also laid out new tactics.
They focused on defending against the Orlando Magic's perimeter and single-handedly defended against Howard.
The Magic's perimeter was too accurate in the first half, or else the score would not have been so deadlocked.
Even if the price to pay for this might be Howard's wanton possession of the basket.
But Howard was not O'Neal.
Nix was not afraid to this extent.
In the third quarter, the Knicks attacked first.
Ariza, Beverley, and Zhou Yuan continued to pass the ball on the outside, tearing apart the Magic's defense.
Zhou Yuan actively moved his position. After opening up a little space, he decisively threw his shot.
Swoosh!
The crisp sound of the net being swiped rang out.
After a period of silence, Zhou Yuan's third segment displayed a strong desire to attack, like a bloodthirsty beast.
Turning around, David Lee single-handedly defended against Howard, and the small toss from Warcraft missed.
Howard's hands were too rough. This was a common problem for black and hard centers.
However, Howard bounced extremely fast and grabbed the offensive rebound above David Lee's head.
After deducting, Howard glared at Zhou Yuan.
"Kid, don't just shoot from the outside. It's too soft. If you have the ability, come to the inside. I'll treat you to hotpot.”Howard taunted.
"Alright, let's make a bet!" Zhou Yuan nodded. If I can't block two of your shots in this game, I'll lose one dollar to you.”
Zhou Yuan had his own way of learning from Yan Shuangying's acting tough.
" He's too arrogant. Let's give it a try then." Howard grunted.
Zhou Yuan bypassed Lewis and passed to Ariza for a layup.
Howard's huge hat flew away.
David Lee grabbed the rebound and threw it, but was violently nailed by Howard.
The Warcraft was a man who had blocked three shots many times, and his blocks were very explosive.
The ball hit the board and bounced up high. Howard received the rebound with a smile.
The moment Howard's hands touched the ball.
A pair of bigger hands snatched the ball away from Howard's hands as if they were robbing him.
Immediately after, a huge force sent Howard flying, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
It was Zhou Yuan!
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Zhou Yuan jumped up from outside the three-point line.
"Once."
Zhou Yuan held the ball and stabbed forward with his right hand like a knife.
The NBA was very strict. There were many moves that could not be done.
Zhou Yuan intended to provoke him with a chokehold, but he didn't want to get a technical foul for nothing.
Not only did he give the opponent a free throw, but he also lost some dollars. The gains did not make up for the losses.
The Magic continued to organize their offense. After a simple pick-and-roll tactic, Howard received the ball and made a layup.
On the Knicks 'side, Zhou Yuan held the ball and rushed forward.
He came to the right end line and faced Lewis with a half-shot.
Lewis was tall enough.
However, it still couldn't cause much interference to Zhou Yuan's shooting.
Whether he could enter or not depended on Zhou Yuan's intuition.
Mid shots, dunks, three-pointers, layups…
In just half a quarter, Zhou Yuan had achieved 7 out of 7 and obtained 16 points!
On the Orlando Magic's side, although Howard had been continuously chopping points and making free throws.
But the perimeter was strangled and the hit rate was very low.
The Knicks had beaten a wave of 21:15.
"He scored 21 points in half a quarter. The Knicks 'offense is crazy.”
"I have always believed that when a team's offense is too fierce, it is no longer the strength of the opponent's defense that decides victory or defeat, but the problem of their own hand.”
The commentator waved his arms passionately and talked non-stop.
The pace of the match was too fast, and it looked too cool.
Only a game of this style and level could represent the NBA, right?
"Yes, Zhou Yuan has already obtained 47 points. Was he going to break 60 points? This was only the first official match of his career.”
"Even Chamberlain's statistics can't compare to his.”
