The Magic returned from the starter and the offense returned to normal. The Knicks' offense against the Magic could not be curbed. Howard alone could not be curbed.

But the Magic also has no way to curb the Knicks' offense. The Knicks have pulled the formation very wide, which is a new challenge for the Magic - because the teams rarely attack like this now.

Although LeBron's team and themselves are of similar nature, they have not done so thoroughly.

The Knicks completely gave up the fight against the frontcourt rebounds, just doing a one-time deal. They went in and ran back to defend if they couldn't make the shot. They ran back to defend if they couldn't make the shot.

This seems to reduce their workload and defense seems simple, especially those who are guarding three-pointers from the outside, but the defenders who face Zhou Mubai directly have to withstand the biggest test.

You can defend against three points. If you have three points, you can't defend against breakthroughs. If you are not allowed to break through, you can't defend against breakthroughs. If you are not allowed to defend against three points, you have to have teammates come to assist in defense. Once there is an assist in defense, there will be loopholes in the defense of the outside line.

Long-distance raids are a new challenge for Magic Team players. The previous rotation did not have such a long-distance raid.

After the second quarter, the Knicks were still leading the Magic by nearly 20 points.

The three commentators from espn looked at each other.

"This kind of game is the only wonder I have seen in my life. It is an extreme tactic. Except for Zhou Mubai, the others completely gave up on the basket, breakthrough, mid-range, and frontcourt rebounds. All they had to do in offense was to shoot three points.

Zhou Mubai took most of the ball, and he kept breaking through, breaking through, forcing the Magic to assist in defense, and then passed the ball to shoot three-pointers for his teammates, which was extremely simple and crude!

The Knicks are currently 19 points ahead in the first half, but the turning point of this game should be in the second half of the third and fourth quarters of the second half." Mark Jackson asserted.

"What do you mean is that Zhou Mubai doesn't have enough physical strength to support the second half?"

Mike Bryn deserves to be a vicious old commentator, and he can see Mark Jackson's implication at once.

Mark Jackson nodded: "No one can play the whole game like this, and LeBron can't do it. In fact, Zhou Mubai can play the first half, which is beyond my expectations.

He didn't have a minute to rest in the first half, scoring 39 points and giving out 16 assists, and almost all of his scores had a direct and indirect relationship with him.

Have you ever seen such a game? Do you think he can continue? I don’t think so unless he is Superman!”

Mark Jackson's words are reasonable and well-founded. Even according to their feelings, no one thinks this judgment is unreasonable, because no one can really play like this in the NBA field.

This is different from other players playing for 40 minutes. If a player averages for 40 minutes, he will be considered an iron man, and the head coach will also be considered a superstar.

The intensity of the NBA are very high. It takes a long time for players from other leagues to adapt to this intensity at the beginning.

Even if they are recognized as Iron Man like Jordan, Kobe, and James, they will be exhausted enough to play for forty minutes.

The key is that their playing style is completely different from Zhou Mubai. When they are on the court, in addition to some necessary rounds, there are many rounds where they can rest on the court.

Zhou Mubai is the starting point in every round, and most of them use breakthroughs as the starting point - breakthrough is the best way to change defense. After breaking in, it will inevitably cause attacks from the opponent, which can create opportunities for the outside line.

Every round is a breakthrough. How strong is this?

Those who have played the ball know how terrible this intensity is. Even if two people fight alone, they will feel tired in two or three rounds with poor physical strength, and they will feel weak after six or seven rounds with good physical strength.

Playing the whole game is not a one-on-one challenge, it is a pincer attack from several opponents, and this intensity is even more overwhelming.

Mark Jackson's statement was accepted by everyone as soon as he said it.

D'Antoni didn't need Mark Jackson to say that he knew very well, so he was persuading Zhou Mubai in the locker room.

"Week, you must rest in the third quarter. No matter how good your physical strength is, you can't play like this whole game. If you continue to play like this, you will be injured." D'Antoni advised with great sincerity.

"Yes, your health is the most important, and the winning or losing of the game is not as important as your health. Moreover, we can't do more this season. Let's work hard next season." After the surprise, Donny Walsh also worried about Zhou Mubai's health.

Zhou Mubai chuckled softly. He was indeed a little tired at the end of the second section, but after returning to the locker room, he ate several bananas and drank some milk. After a while, his body had recovered. As long as there was sufficient energy, there would be no problem with his body.

"Mike, Donnie, no one knows my body better than me. At this level, for me, it's just a warm-up. You really don't have to worry. I won't do anything that hurts my body."

Donny Walsh and D'Antony frowned.

Zhou Mubai smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, it depends on my performance on the court. If a person feels tired, it will not be concealed.

The speed becomes slower, the reaction becomes slower, and the legs cannot move. This is a natural law and it is difficult to change the spirit, so I have no way to hide it.

If you are worried, observe my performance on the court. If you see me feeling tired, replace me. It’s always okay, right?”

"Okay, if I see you tired, I will change you down." D'Antoni said.

Donny Walsh frowned: "We can't squeeze you like this, no team will use players to this level..."

Zhou Mubai waved his hand: "It's not just for the team, but also for myself. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. To become a leader, you must bear more. To become a superstar, you must naturally achieve more results. What is the better answer than leading a weak team to glory?"

Donny Walsh had to disagree.

Zhou Mubai went back to prepare for the game, and Donny Walsh and D'Antoni started chatting.

"Aren't you afraid of being attacked and fucking the main force?" asked Donny Walsh.

D'Antoni smiled bitterly and said, "I have to bear this infamous now."

Donny Walsh sighed: "I hope God will favor you and don't let Zhou Mubai be hurt, otherwise we two will become sinners."

The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

The second half of the Knicks and Magic begins.

Because Zhou Mubai scored 39 points, 14 assists, 7 rebounds and 3 steals in the first half (others don’t grab rebounds, Zhou Mubai still grabbed it), leading the Knicks to nearly 20 ahead of the Magic, which entered the finals last year, has attracted more attention, and espn’s ratings soared.
