The confrontation between the Wizards and the Magic is a long-awaited game for many fans in the league.

These two teams are currently the league's most scoring three-pointers per game.

The Wizards averaged more than 40 three-point shots per game.

The Magic also made nearly 30 three-point attempts.

In addition to the Wizards and Magic, the other team's three-point attempts are basically less than 25 per game.

The team, also known for its three-pointers, has a clear difference between the Magic and Wizards.

On the one hand, the Magic have an inside monster, Howard.

O'Neal is old, Duncan and Garnett have all passed their career peaks. Oden, who was highly anticipated, is still on the bench. He can average 18 points, 13 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game. Howard can be called The strongest insider in the league.

On the other hand, the Magic's outside lineup is also quite luxurious. The new gods introduced in the new season, Vince Carter, Mr. Billion, Sara Lewis, and excellent outsiders such as Pietrus, Nelson, Redick and Barnes. Shooter. And the defensive ability of these "shooters" is quite outstanding. Under the training of Stan Van Gundy, who is famous for his defense, the defense of the entire Magic team can be called a wall of iron.

This season, the Magic averaged 95 points per game, ranking third in the league, while averaging 105 points per game, ranking sixth in the league.

This is definitely a strong team with a strong balance between offense and defense.

The Wizards are a lot more amazing.

The scoring average of 117 points per game is the best in the league, and no team can match, but at the same time, the 107 points per game are also the last few in the league.

Compared to playing the Magic team steadily and steadily, the Wizards are like dancing on the tip of the knife, which is why the team's style of play has always been criticized.

Although the current record is quite "colorful", but relying on three-pointers blindly and blindly on offense, can you really win all the time?

Many people doubt this.

Now, it is finally time to verify this problem.

Wizards vs. Magic, is it possible to win with a steady three-pointer, or is it unreasonable that "random" tactics are better?

This game is played at the Orlando home of the Magic, the Amway Center in Orlando.

At the beginning of the game, the Wizards of away game fell into a passive.

Howard's condition is quite good. The Wizards' starting center Haywood is also a relatively strong defensive center in the inside. However, in front of Howard, there is no resistance. The guy is like a real Warcraft. The ball dunked and grabbed an offensive rebound to make a deduction.

As the last super center in the post-center era, Howard was really terrifying!

In the first quarter, Haywood, Jordan Jr. and McKee played in turn, but they were still being abused in front of Howard.

If it weren’t for Curry, he scored three 3-pointers in the first quarter, and the difference between the two teams would be widened in the first quarter.

Howard's horror is not only in its terrifying lethality. When this big man sprints, his speed is no less than that of a small guard!

The Wizards' most commonly used pick-and-roll team doesn't have much advantage when facing Howard.

When the inside center came out to give Curry a pick-and-roll, Howard also immediately followed and made up his defense. The action was so fast that Curry didn't even have a little space to shoot a "shoot" three point!

When the game progressed to the second quarter, the Wizards players' feelings began to decline with physical strength, the score of the two teams began to have a gap.

When the second quarter ended, the score of the two teams was 58:47, the Wizards trailed by 11 points away, and it was also the rare half-game score that did not exceed 50 points.

"Sure enough, the Magic line-up or Howard still restrains our tactics."

In the locker room, Wang Xiao shook his head.

The players were all silent, and they had no good way to face Howard.

The Magic's defensive tactics are very simple. Anti-shooting is not anti-bursting. The four players on the outside are all defending against their shots, so they will not hesitate to put them inside.

But after rushing into the inside, they faced the defense of Howard this Warcraft, even if the small play has a certain advantage, how can the offensive efficiency be high in front of this Warcraft?

"Heywood, Little Jordan, McGee." Wang Xiao looked at the three insiders. "In the second half, let's cut the shark."

The shark-cutting tactics originated from the former Mavericks coach Nielsen, this is a set of tactics specifically aimed at O'Neal.

The pinnacle of O'Neill is an unstoppable presence on the inside. No matter who you send or how many people you send, there is no way to stop him.

But O'Neal always has a short board, that is free throws.

Grabbing O'Neal's bad handle on free throws and constantly fouling O'Neill is less efficient than letting O'Neill hold the ball to attack and send him directly to the free throw line to score.

Although Howard's offense is far inferior to O'Neill, his free throws are equally bad. Using the shark-cutting tactics against him is naturally not as good as using the peak O'Neal. However, he should be able to recover some rounds.

In Wang Xiao's team, the most important thing is the center.

Haywood, Jordan Jr., McGee's three big center forwards, and Brachy's power forward who can reach the center position, will never worry that there will be no one because of too many fouls.

After the start of the third quarter, the team immediately began to execute.

Howard had just started to ask for the ball on the inside. As soon as the basketball was delivered to him, Jordan immediately fouled.

Howard, who took the free throw line, had not realized what was about to happen.

The Wizards had good luck, and Howard missed two free throws.

The Wizards who got the ball took the opportunity to attack.

The magic just started serving, and the whistle sounded again.

Stan Van Gundy couldn't help getting up from his seat.

Shark tactics.

Turning his head to look at Wang Xiao, Fan Gandi's eyes narrowed slightly.

"This kid is quite decisive."

On the court, Howard became depressed.

At this time he also knew that the opponent was about to commit a foul tactic against him.

"Hey, aren't you afraid that I will all be fined?"

Howard's words made Butler and Jamison laugh.

"Okay, then you will all be fined, I hope the basket is the sea in front of you."

Howard grinned and took the free throw line.

The first penalty.

"frame."

The crisp sound of ironing made Howard's face "black".

Followed by the second penalty.

"frame!"

Wang Xiao under the field couldn't help but get up.

4 of 0 penalty, it seems that luck is really good!

Seeing the effect was good, the Wizards intensified, and in the next few rounds, as soon as they saw Howard, someone immediately ran up and fouled.

For a time, the court heard boos for the shameless tactics of the Wizards, but Wang Xiao was unmoved.

As the so-called soldiers are not deceitful, as long as they can win, what does it matter to be booed?
