From Today it is the King of the Basketball

: 36. The magic that should have been the most

From the shadow of the Raptors leaving his distant cousin to come to the Magic, Tracy McGrady last season alone led the team, led the Magic has not entered the playoffs for four years into the playoffs.

After O'Neill left the Magic, the Magic changed from a strong team in the east second only to the Bulls to a fish belly. Anfenni Hardaway played 50 games in the first year after O'Neill left and was reimbursed, and never returned. At its peak, it was traded by the Magic to the Sun in 1999, and the magic was completely transformed into a belly.

In 2000, the Magic introduced Grant Hill and McGrady, and also recruited free agent Tim Duncan. Because Duncan was a rookie contract signed before the lockout in 1998, it was only three years, and there was no mother in 1998. With the team's priority renewal terms, the Magic are expected to form the Big Three.

At that time, the Magic coach Doug Rivers and the Magic boss went to San Antonio to discuss with Duncan. Duncan had agreed to go to the Magic at the time. As a result, when Duncan was about to agree to sign the contract, he asked: When playing away Can I take my girlfriend and family on a charter flight? Air tickets are a bit expensive.

Then Rivers said no.

Then there is no more.

From the newspaper that year asked O’Neill if he was worth 100 million, and by 2000 he would n’t give Duncan a ticket to his girlfriend and parents. The Magic ’s management was absolutely amazing!

Rivers' sentence can't be and it's solid enough.

Is not only an operation for the Magic, but also a lot of luck. Just signed a six-year 80 million contract with Grant Hill. Grant Hill played 4 games last season and was reimbursed for the season.

In fact, at the beginning, the Magic had McGrady, Grant Hill, and Duncan because they basically did n’t think of McGrady as a giant. They wanted to find the dual core of Grant Hill and Duncan. , I did not expect one to reimburse.

This is probably the only "lucky" thing in Tracy McGrady's unlucky year last season. Without a star-level teammate, he became the absolute core of the Magic. If Grant Hill is there, Tracy McGrady just changes teams. When Pippen was gone, but Grant Hill was reimbursed, McGrady's talent was shown.

With an average of 26.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 5 assists, McGrady scored an average of 15 points per game directly from Carter. He jumped into the league's first-line superstar, entered the ranks of superstars, won the fastest progress award, and was in the best lineup. The second team won more votes than Carter, and it took only one season to prove that he is stronger than his distant cousin!

But McGrady was unlucky. After last season, Grant Hill was healed. The Magic saw that they had two superstars and what Duncan they needed. Then they recruited massively and introduced the best sixth person. Darrell Armstrong, Celtics quasi-first point guard Di Brown, and the team's weakest and best rookie Mike Miller selected in 2000 have also grown up.

Watching the new season ready to go to the 76ers ... Grant Hill reimbursed.

Di-Brown was also reimbursed.

Championship lineup?

nonexistent.

Originally, the Magic should start this season with a super outside combination such as Di Brown, Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, and two blue collar insiders, Pat Garritti and John Amici. Duncan can be brought back with a few tickets. There are three starting-level substitutes for Darrell Armstrong, Bo Outlaw, and Mike Miller on the bench, and Patrick Ewing, a veteran, This is basically the first team in the East!

Even the weakest rookie is also the best rookie. The rookie's average of 11 points and 4 rebounds per year is not so easy ... for the 2000 rookie.

If the Magic is the lineup where Grant Hill and Dee Brown are reimbursed before the season, the Hawks can say no, you can take away the victory.

In fact, even the current lineup of Darrell Armstrong, McGrady, Mike Miller, Pat Garritt, John Amici is no worse than the Hawks.

……

If Kobe is a venomous snake that can only be hidden in the shadow of O'Neill at the beginning, Carter is a flying dragon shining from the head, and Iverson is a domineering lone wolf, then McGrady is like an elf who is always on the go.

Leaving aside the honors of his career, McGrady is like James, who has seen Liu Mang dominate the East for many years in the future. Everything is tepid, and scores, rebounds and assists are casually obtained. .

As the top player in the league, Raheem was suppressed in all aspects when he played against Tracy McGrady, and Tracy McGrady seemed to be useless. He scored 15 points in the first quarter.

Liu Mang looked at Rahim, who was abused and desperate, on the sidelines. Perhaps he was still winning the goal in his bones. Liu Mang felt a pain. Really speaking, Rahim's talent is also top! Why is it so miserable every time I encounter a superstar?

If Liu Mang knew what Rahim was thinking, then the Grizzlies who raised Rahim into a top star of 23 + 10 + 3 per game would not push him down and rebuild.

It was Jason Terry and Darrell Armstrong that the two were more competitive. The confrontation between the former best sixth man and the future best sixth man has come and gone.

Both teams are blue-collar in the inside, just watch the outside play, grab a rebound and defend the basket.

Finished the first quarter, as expected by the media before the game, the Magic team has an all-round advantage in strength, the Eagles side, despite the main game full of the first quarter, still trailing the Magic 21 to 27 points.

The Hawks have done a good job in other positions. Jason Terry and Darrell Armstrong are the two most suitable players to play the sixth man. Mike Miller is matched by Dean Groe. Husband defended very well, as did Dean Grove's organization and scoring ability, which was also blocked by Mike Miller.

The inside are all blue-collars and there is no offensive performance.

As far as McGrady is concerned, the Hawks were completely exploded. McGrady not only played Rahim on the offensive end, but also defended Rahim from kneeling. If it was not Jason Terry, 3 in the first quarter. Points, the Hawks will be miserable!

Coach Kruger was really speechless to Rahim. In the first four games of the season, three of them were exploded by the top players in the match. The first game of playing rockets was not as good as his Francis. He was beaten. Explosion, the second scene against Iverson ... Iverson scored 25 points in a single quarter, the third game was okay, the opponent did not compete with him, UU reading www. uukannshu.com finally got a tough wave and scored 37 points. In the fourth game, he met McGrady ...

Can't you get angry?

Coach Kruger's most dissatisfied with his team is that there is no player who can play the absolute core, there is no such kind of person who can lead the team forward.

Rahim, the strength is okay, but he has no energy and is exploded when he encounters a superstar.

Jason Terry, has the spirit and strength, but without the team spirit, go up and do it, it is easy to be targeted.

Others ... are role players.

This lineup can win some games to enter the playoffs, but it is too difficult to become a popular team as the boss thinks!

To say that this team is the hottest player now ... Coach Kruger looked at Liu Mang who was eager to try and look forward to playing. Seeing Liu Mang ’s shining eyes, it seems that the most star-like aspect of our team is This thing, this one is now so insignificant because of the play style. There are some famous guys in the United States. This rookie who can always become an X factor is also his disciple.

Think about it, coach Kruger made the second quarter staff arrangement: "Ais, Jason, Alan, Yila, Nazir you play."

"Received!" Liu Mang took off his training suit and walked to the field.

Two consecutive games played at regular time, that is, from the water dispenser manager to enter the rotation player ranks! Liu Mang was not tolerated.

Seeing Liu Mang walked onto the court like that, the black line on Coach Kruger's face: "Aisi, come back to me!"

"Well? What happened to the coach?" Liu Mang asked doubtfully.

"Tactics! I haven't arranged the tactics yet!" Coach Kruger had a headache. That year Liu Mang was so steady when he was in college, so now it is!

Liu Mang looked at Coach Kruger's face was black, and came back with a smile ...
