Chapter 297 Davis = Jordan?

Chapter 297 Davis = Jordan?

Seeing that coach Lao Tang called for a timeout, D'Antoni specifically asked Davis if he wanted to play.

Davis wanted to try what rhythm he was most used to now, so he nodded to indicate that he could play.

And now the Rockets simply don't have anyone who can match up with Davis.

Just like the Knicks in the previous game, DeWeese can do whatever he wants on the court.

His breakthrough made Cassel unable to find the north, and his pass allowed O'Neal to wreak havoc on the basket over Olajuwon's head more than once.

At the end of the second quarter, the Magic led the Rockets by a full 12 points.

Davis scored 20+10 in the first half of the game. This performance has basically declared the Magic's victory in this game.

Sure enough, in the third quarter, DeWeese, who was fully fired, scored 6 points in just [-] minutes, and directly took away the Rockets in a wave.

Coach Lao Tang looked at the flying Magic One on the court, and was amazed at the growth speed of this kid.

You know, he is only 20 years old this year.

"You are already so strong at the age of 20. If you really enter the peak period of a player, how terrible will it be?"

In the fourth quarter, coach Lao Tang did not try to counterattack in the face of a 20-point difference, but calmly sent a substitute.

After all, the Magic are in the East and the Rockets are in the West. Except for the finals, the two teams will never meet again.

The outcome of this game has no impact on the Rockets' status in the West.

They are 2 games ahead of the No.3.5 Utah Jazz.

With a big win, the Magic stepped onto the plane.

Their record has come to 47 wins and 9 losses, and they can almost certainly break the team's winning record.

The next game will still be played in Texas.

The second strongest player in Texas, San Antonio, has shown its own Spurs at home, ready to give the Magic a ruthless shot.

Coincidentally, after playing three super teams, Davis and O'Neal will face the Spurs led by "Admiral" David Robinson, the only one of the four major centers who has never played against each other.

David Robinson, 30, is at the peak of his career.

他这个赛季场均可以拿下27.6分10.8篮板2.7助攻1.7抢断3.2盖帽。

However, Davis's more impression of him comes from the fact that David Robinson, who is known as the four most athletic centers in the game, was blown to pieces by the coach in just 6 minutes when facing the best warriors in history in the system space.

The Magic's recent schedule is a bit tight, so D'Antoni didn't arrange any training programs after arriving in San Antonio. He just warmed up his lower body in the Spurs training hall in the afternoon, and led the team to usher in the game against the Spurs.

O'Neal played well in the first two games.

In the first two games, he faced Ewing and Olajuwon one by one, and they were head-to-head on the inside. In this game, he deliberately found Davis to ask for more shots.

Of course, Davis would not refuse O'Neal's request, after all, the chances of encountering the four major centers inside the same level as him are very small.

Ewing and Mourning are better, they can meet four times a year, and if they meet in the playoffs, they can play a few more games.

But Olajuwon and Robinson, if it wasn't for the finals, they would have played a total of four games.

What's more, this is a continuous challenge, which is very helpful for O'Neal to improve his experience against top centers.

So, at night, DeWeese once again turned into Darth Vader, and O'Neill turned into Luke Skywalker.

Although Robinson, who played almost the whole game, scored 41 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 blocks, O'Neal didn't want to let it go.

他出场了38分钟，砍下了39分13篮板3助攻5盖帽。

Considering that Robinson wanted to chase points at the last moment, he played for a full 45 minutes. From the perspective of efficiency, O'Neal still won this super inside duel.

DeWeese once again had a game with more assists than points.

He also played 38 minutes, but he was staggered with O'Neal for a period of time. At the last moment, he was on the court against Robinson's pressure and put the last coffin board on the Spurs.

而这38分钟里，迪威斯化身斯托克顿，砍下21分22助攻的双20数据，还顺带拿了5篮板3抢断。

The most commendable thing is that since playing the Bulls, Davis, who has turned into an assist master, averaged 18 assists per game and made only 3 turnovers.

The assist-to-turnover ratio of 18 makes everyone who pays attention to this statistic dumbfounded.

This is equivalent to DeWeese can't make mistakes at all.

After the two consecutive away from Texas, the Magic can finally take a break in their old home.

The next warrior to come to the Magic's home court to slay the dragon is the Atlanta Hawks.

The Eagles, without a superstar, played perfect team basketball under the leadership of Lenny Wilkens.

They are now on the fringes of the playoffs, with a winning percentage of just 50%.

For this grassroots team, it is already very good to have such a record.

After all, their team's leading scorer, Steve Smith, averaged only 16 points per game.

And Davis also led the team's crazy performance this week, and won the Player of the Week without any suspense.

In 4 games, Davis scored 132 points and 67 assists.

Averaged 33 points and 16 assists per game.

The Magic have also secured the league's No. [-] throne.

At the same time, the gap between DeWeese and Jordan in the MVP list is getting smaller and smaller.

The Magic, which got a day off, got half a day off.

The season is gradually entering the later stage, and D'Antoni pays great attention to the team's physical problems.

The Magic continued to lead the league in injuries this season.

Of course, referring to less.

The Magic played at full strength most of the time, and the biggest injury was that Sprewell was out for two weeks.

The Eagles started their game against the Magic timidly.

They also did play fluid team basketball.

But in the face of the Magic with Davis and O'Neal in the league's top five, the teamwork of the Eagles obviously cannot bring them victory.

The Magic won their first game back in Orlando without any surprises.

Even though 6 Hawks scored in double figures and three scored 20, O'Neal and Davis scored 80 points, 17 rebounds and 19 assists, completely dominating the game inside and outside.

奥尼尔45分13篮板3助攻，迪威斯35分4篮板16助攻。

Although Wilkens desperately wanted to win all the games, facing the Magic still made him give up this idea.

He also discovered that Davis was improving faster than he had imagined.

Even after the game, Wilkens directly stated that Davis is a star at Jordan's level.

As soon as the words came out, the next day, all the sports sections of American newspapers were discussing this issue.

Now, is Davis a star at the same level as Jordan?
