After returning to Orlando, they rested for a day and it was soon night time. This was their first time playing a home game together, so it was very meaningful.
Today's ESPM commentary welcomed Jeff Van Gundy and McBreen, the two commentators who had hosted the finals.
"Mike, since the last small victory over the Clippers, do you think Su Rui's performance is still considered magical?”
Jeff asked.
"I originally thought that Su Rui was really just lucky, or the feeling came, but his performance actually made me have a good impression on him. I always felt that he really seemed to have this strength.”
Mike replied.
"Today is the second preseason game for the Magic. The Amway Arena is already full of people. They want to see the new combination of the Magic play at home for the first time.”
"Let's see how they perform tonight.”
At this time, Su Rui, Howard, and other players had already begun their warm-up training.
The Wizards from Washington would also fight against the Magic under the leadership of the new top scorer, Wall, the team's future core. They were also looking forward to the performance of Su Rui and Wall.
Su Rui, Howard, and Curry were quite popular and received cheers from the Magic fans.
He gave them endless respect and trust.
Both sides began introducing the starting players!
Magic starting lineup: point guard Nelson, point guard Curry, small forward Su Rui, power forward Turkoglu, center Howard.
Wizards starting: Point Guard: John Wall, Point Guard: Arenas, small forward: Josh Howard, power forward: Andrey Blecher, center forward: Javier McGee.
It was worth mentioning that the NBA was also traded to the Wizards by the New jersey Nets in the offseason, even though they were not in the starting lineup.
However, when the fellow countrymen saw the fellow countrymen, their eyes welled up with tears!
The two of them greeted each other warmly and hurriedly started the game.
"Beep…"
Jump ball in the middle circle!
Howard missed the ball this time, but the ball was still picked up by the Wizards.
John Wall launched his first attack! As the top scorer, he also carried many tasks for the team.
Dribbling the ball to the top of the arc, Blecher's pick-and-roll allowed Wall to find an opportunity to use his speed to get rid of Turkoglu's defense and directly enter the penalty area.
In order to avoid Howard's block, he decisively chose to throw the ball to complete the end. He scored the first point of the game with a hollow shot!
Wall high-fived his teammates with a proud expression.
"This rookie champion is very fast, which is one of his strengths.”
Curry received his teammate's serve and took it alone. Su Rui followed from the left side, and Howard, who didn't get rid of the defender in a simple disguise, came out of the penalty area again.
But who knew that Su Rui's reverse run received Howard's hand-over pass and fell to the free-throw line, then directly shot from Howard's position!
Another one! Hollow!
"Oh ho ho, Su Rui returned one as soon as he came up, and it's a mid-range shot again. This kid is really making people look at him with more and more respect!”
Mike said.
"This Su Rui seems to be really a bit strong. Before, I thought it was a coincidence when I saw him bring the Green Army to the finals. I saw him play in the regular season last season and he played too badly.”
"No matter what happened in the past, he's now one of Orlando's people!”
"This unsolvable mid-range shot really made the other side lose their temper.”
While the fans were talking, the score had reached 12:10. The Magic were two points behind.
During this period, Su Rui only made two moves, and both times were successful.
Wall, on the other hand, was different. With unlimited shooting rights, he scored six points for the team, which filled the Wizards 'coach with confidence.
With the Magic ball, Curry quickly pushed forward. Facing the opponent's defense, he directly broke through and made a layup in the penalty area. He was interfered with.
The ball was picked up by Wall, who followed behind him. He rushed to the free-throw line and directly chose to shoot a mid-range shot against Su Rui.
"Swoosh…"
He entered again.
Wall simply didn't miss a single shot, and it felt hot.
However, Su Rui, who was not afraid at all, continued to push forward. He passed it to Nelson and handed it over to Su Rui again. The three-point line was shot directly without any hesitation.
He also threw a long two-pointer at the edge of the first zone.
Another hollow hit! He crushed Wall in mid-range shooting!
This caused a sensation in the Orlando Magic's home stadium, and they were excited about this kid.
Jeff said," This is going to be a big fight! Let's put up more defense against each other!”
On the field.
The battle between Su Rui and Wall continued.
It continued until the end of the first section.
Wall scored 10 points on 5 out of 7 shots, and Su Rui scored 4 out of 4 and scored 8 points. The scores of both sides were equal. Tonight's opening performance could also be considered as full firepower!
"It's another competition between the team's scorers.
It turned out that Su Rui's scoring efficiency was the highest, and the others were also average. This kid's strength was becoming more and more unpredictable!”
Mike sighed.
"Perhaps…this is his true strength. We should also face reality and forget about the Su Rui of the past. Perhaps this is the beginning of his rookie season!”
Jeff answered Mike.
Su Rui, who returned to the bench, was also praised by coach Van Gundy.
"Su Rui is still stable! Your performance should also break the doubts of the outside world!”
"I don't care about what others think. I just want to be myself.”
Su Rui was very determined. At this time, the voices of the fans also sounded at the scene.
"Su Rui! Su Rui!"
"Su Rui on stage!"
The sudden sound of the fans made Su Rui feel the atmosphere at home.
"Looks like they all want you to play!”
"I'm going to take a break. I'll leave the first half of the second quarter to my teammates!”
At the start of the second quarter, the substitutes from both teams continued to play, while the main players went to rest.
The Wizards 'reserve didn't seem to lose to the Orlando Magic's reserve at all. He was very good at restricting defense, but he wasn't as strong on the offensive end.
Although the Orlando Magic's reserve was doing okay on the offensive end, against the Wizards 'defense, they could only rely on foul shots to keep the score.
After that, the Wizards 'Wall went on stage first to lead the team. He hit the iron first, but then he broke through and layup to cause damage.
Half a quarter later, the score reached 46:46. Wall came up and led the team to tie the score.
Orlando Magic coach Van Gundy immediately called for a time-out and switched to a lineup with Curry, Su Rui, and Howard, and two substitutes.
The Wizards even switched to the starting lineup.
He paused and returned.
The game continued. Magic Ball.
"This Wall is quite something. It seems that no one here can keep up with his speed!”
Howard said.
"We just need to make up for it in time. As long as there's interference, it's easy to defend!”
"Wall isn't easy to limit, but is Su Rui easy to limit?”
Ku Li's wave of reminders also praised Su Rui. *
