Li Yan hung the basket lightly and then landed lightly.
After landing, Li Yan waved his hands in almost the same posture as "Warcraft" Howard just now, and said with a smile:
"Dwight, welcome to New York, to my turf!"
The close-up of the camera clearly recorded the scene of Li Yan "molesting" Howard, and soon there were "capable people and strangers" who interpreted the content of Li Yan's speech.
Fans all know that Li Yan is defending his status as the master of Madison Garden.
The entire arena was buzzing with excitement. The Knicks finally welcomed a superstar. New York fans had long since stopped watching stars from other teams run wild here.
They needed their hero, and now he's here.
"Wow! Master Li is so domineering!"
"Well done, you have to be so awesome as a man."
"Master Li is domineering and a role model for our generation."
"No wonder foreign girls like Master Li so much. Who wouldn't be confused after seeing this?"
"Can Howard bear it?"
"What? You still dare to fight Master Li, otherwise he will lose even more miserably."
On the sports forum, domestic fans were also excited.
In such a short period of time, Li Yan was blocked twice in a row and another was dunked.
Howard's smile froze on his face, and even the cheerful "Warcraft" felt his face was dull.
Li Yan's words and actions made Howard feel even more humiliated, and he couldn't laugh anymore.
Howard wanted to be tough and go back to Li Yan, but when he thought about Li Yan's kung fu skills, he held back.
Not wanting to suffer immediate losses, Howard decided to use his performance to respond to Li Yan's provocation.
Lewis and Turkoglu came over to comfort Howard.
Turkoglu knows how Howard feels. He was severely crushed once when he fought with Li Yan last year, and Howard must be feeling very uncomfortable now.
In the studio of Domestic Central Mama.
Director Zhang, who was already Li Yan’s number one fan, shouted excitedly: “That’s great, Xiao Li fucks him.”
"At the beginning of the second half, Li Yan showed a dominant performance on both offense and defense. On the defensive end, he gave Howard two big shots. On the offensive end, he also scored without mercy." Director Zhang said:
"As soon as Li Yan made a move, the Knicks evened the point difference very easily."
The game continues with the magic round.
Howard continued to ask for the ball, and Turkoglu lobbed the basketball to Howard.
After being served in "hot pot" by Li Yan continuously, "Warcraft" is not as confident as before.
He observed the situation on the court and passed the ball to Rashard Lewis outside the three-point line.
"Uh-huh!"
Lewis raised the knife and hit a three-pointer with his open hand.
This offseason, the Magic used a six-year, $118.2 million super contract to bring Lewis from Seattle to Orlando.
This signing was generally viewed as negative. 118 million? Just Rashard Lewis?
Yes, the one-time All-Star was reliable, but every season in Seattle, he played the role of Robin next to Batman—just a wingman next to Ray Allen.
The season before coming to the Magic, he produced the best statistics of his career: averaging 22.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game, and he averaged 20 points per game in the previous three seasons.
But 118 million. At that time, Lewis couldn't believe that he could earn so much. His original psychological price was 90 million in five years.
"The NBA must be crazy," Lewis said. "But God is normal."
The tenth billion-dollar contract in history was given to a 28-year-old guy who had no outstanding statistics except for scoring 20 points per game and had only made the All-Star team once.
Critics are not willing to give up, and all kinds of sarcastic and sarcastic voices are overwhelming.
However, in the new season, Lewis' improvement for the Magic is obvious.
Lewis has a strong ability to learn and adjust, and for most of his time in Seattle, he was the most effective low-post weapon.
Because the seven-footers on the team - Jerome James, Fordson, Robert Swift - are not competent on the offensive end.
In Orlando, however, the post belongs to Howard.
Secondly, at the 3rd position, Turkoglu and Lewis obviously overlapped. In order to achieve the optimal configuration of the lineup, the faster-moving Lewis was pushed to the power forward position.
In Seattle, Radmanovic and Lewis rarely started at the same time, one of the reasons being that the West is filled with so many good power forwards.
But in the East, which is relatively weak in the interior, the frontcourt composed of Lewis, Turkoglu, and Howard is enough to cope with it.
The Magic have achieved a good record of 5 wins and 1 loss in the new season. Lewis averaged 19 points and 5 rebounds per game, and he moved quickly on the court and tried his best to maintain the integrity of the team's defense. You can hardly accuse him of not being worth so much.
In fact, the market does not have any standards that specify "what needs to be done to earn an annual salary of 20 million"; what's more, if the Magic are willing to give it, do they require Lewis to refuse?
The arrival of Lewis completely overturned the Magic's original tactical system.
The two small forwards playing at the same time not only speed up the attack and defense, but also free up enough offensive space for Howard, who is not rich in scoring skills.
Lewis and Turkoglu are positioned on the wings, often causing defenders to focus on one thing and not the other: while nervously aiming inside, they have to keep an eye on the outside shooters.
Unlike other teammates, Lewis is a deadly shooter with a high shooting point and fast shooting speed. Coupled with his height, it is difficult for defenders to interfere with his shooting.
Lewis's dribbling is not good, but he is flexible and good at observing the situation on the court. He can often run out of space and catch the ball and shoot.
His smart movement on the wings allows Howard to gain more space in the interior, while freeing up Turkoglu and Nelson, whose ability to shoot and pass can be further exploited.
After Lewis joined, the Magic's number of three-pointers shot rose from 28th to second in the league, and their three-point field goal percentage rose from 13th to third.
This is how the Megatron Alliance's "one star, four stars" system was formed.
Li Yan is in hot form. Even facing the Magic's attack, his strong physical fitness allows Li Yan to put the basketball into the basket with an almost "juggling" movement.
Coupled with the bonus of visual suppression and pick-and-roll.
Li Yan scored one "top five" goal after another, and Madison Garden continued to boil.
The fans in New York cheered for Li Yan, and the shouts of "mvp!" resounded throughout the audience.
However, Li Yan's violent performance did not open up the score, and the Magic's offensive firepower was equally strong.
When Li Yan shifted his focus to the inside to help defend Howard, the Magic's outside shooters stepped up to punish the Knicks' defense.
The Magic used practical actions to tell everyone that they were not the only one with "Warcraft" Howard.
Li Yan was very helpless. No matter how beautiful the goal was, the score was the same.
The Magic's outside offense is very sharp, and they are extremely good at using running positions to create mobile opportunities.
They don't rely on a certain strong point on the outside, but play quite holistically.
Li Yan kept making up for the losses on the defensive end, but he was still a little concerned about one thing and the other.
At the end of the three quarters, the score was 88 to 89, with the Knicks trailing the Magic by 1 point.
Li Yan scored 20 points in a single quarter, but still couldn't kill the Magic. This season's Magic really has something.
The Knicks still have a lot to improve on if they want to go further in the playoffs.
Although the East is easier than the West, it is not that simple for the Knicks.
Isiah Thomas has a headache, and he doesn't have a good solution to the Magic's "one star, four stars" tactic.
"Warcraft" Howard and the Magic's outside shooters were like two cups of "poison". Isiah Thomas fell silent while holding the tactical board.
"Coach, let's play normally. At the end, we can try the shark-cutting tactic." Li Yan suggested: "Dwight's free throws are not accurate. Let's pinch the outside and kill Howard."
Thomas thought for a moment and immediately agreed: "That's it!"
