In the final game, 121-97, the Suns beat the Magic away from home.
Howard was a little embarrassed when he came off the court. He failed to fulfill his pre-game promise. Not only did the Magic fail to win, but Chen Yan also scored 42 points.
At the press conference, the reporter repeated Howard's words to Chen Yan. Chen Yan smiled and did not respond. His performance on the court was the best response.
Howard didn't feel sad about the loss for too long. After being interviewed by reporters, he turned around and went to the nightclub. It's not without reason that Howard has many illegitimate children. Others win and go to the nightclub to find a girl to celebrate. Regardless of whether he wins or loses, Howard
I usually go there anytime, and usually find more than one.
Master Huo was running around nightclubs in Orlando non-stop, and the Suns players were also rushing to the venue. The next day they had back-to-back games against the Rockets.
The Rockets' record this year is not bad. They are currently ranked sixth in the Western Conference with 37 wins and 25 losses. This result exceeds everyone's expectations because the team's core McGrady has missed at least half of the games this season, and the other core Yao Yao has returned.
On the weight loss transformation.
The Rockets rely on a group of young people and role players to play. Experts believe that Dayao will still have a hard time breaking through the second round with such a group of inexperienced players, but in any case, they will at least have no problem making the playoffs, unlike these two.
The Utah Jazz, their archrival in 2016, are still struggling on the edge of the playoffs.
The Jazz are currently ranked ninth in the Western Conference. Many people think that their strength has regressed. In fact, this is not the case. Compared with last season, their core lineup has not changed, but their opponents have undergone considerable changes. The Nuggets have introduced core point guards.
Guard Billups and the Trail Blazers youth team have accumulated enough experience to break out this year. The Suns, Lakers, Mavericks, Spurs, and Hornets, not to mention, even the old rival Rockets have changed their previous
Play style and tactics.
They haven't changed, the world has changed, so they naturally fall behind.
...

Before the Suns vs. Rockets game started, the scene was harmonious. Chen Yan, Dayao and McGrady chatted for a while while they were warming up.
The three people looked very happy. They had a common topic, which was games.
Men are teenagers until they die, and they all have a unique love for games. Many middle-aged people stop playing games not because they think games are not fun, but because they don’t have anyone to play games with you anymore.
Chen Yan and Dayao often play World of Warcraft, and McGrady will occasionally join them. McGrady is not interested in World of Warcraft, so the three of them will play CS online and blast each other.
Recently, Chen Yan was frustrated in love, and spent a lot of time together with Dayao in the game. His sister-in-law Ye Li did not complain about this. A man like Dayao, who is famous and rich, does not go out and spend money like water, but only spends a little money at home.
It’s hard to get money to play games, okay?
"How are you with your girlfriend?" Dayao asked with a rare gossip.
"I suspect you want to give me a psychological blow before the game." Chen Yan replied.
"Hahaha, no, I just care about you." Dayao said with a smile.
"It's still the same, in the cold war." Chen Yan said in one stroke.
"Be proactive, man." Dayao smiled.
"Tracy, how is your injury?" Chen Yan decisively changed the subject.
McGrady looked sleepy and said: "No problem, I will start tonight."
Due to the butterfly effect caused by Chen Yan's emergence, the Rockets did not meet the Jazz in last year's playoffs, and McGrady did not play a closed game. During this period, he did not undergo minimally invasive surgery on his knee. He, the team management and the head coach
Naturally, the relationship has not broken down. As long as McGrady appears on the court, the Rockets are still willing to play around him.
The reason why McGrady has been on and off this season is because of some old injuries. He has too many problems, such as waist, back, knees, ankles... Once an attack occurs, it will be difficult to play well. If he had not suffered any injuries,
During this period of illness, he was still at 60-70% level at his peak. He didn't have a super performance, but he was more powerful than most shooting guards in the league.
As soon as the game started, McGrady hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc.
Now that the outside world is questioning McGrady more and more, he wants to prove himself.
McGrady was in good form in this game, scoring 9 points in the first quarter and finishing with 16 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists at halftime.
Of course, McGrady's performance cannot be separated from the support of his teammates. Yao frequently moved to the high post to create breakthrough space for him, while Brooks used breakthrough points to help McGrady win some shooting opportunities.
The Rockets played the perfect Princeton tactics tonight. Everyone was on the line. The only thing the head coach was dissatisfied with was the defense. Although Dayao lost weight, he was still a giant center. Because of his presence, the Rockets were forced to give up man-to-man marking.
Defense can only be based on zone defense. Most of Dayao's defense is in the zone. Once the Suns pull out the inside, Dayao becomes a bit dilemma. Scola is disadvantaged in both height and jumping. He is alone.
You can't protect the frame by staying inside.
In the third quarter, Chen Yan and McGrady surged forward. Although McGrady's overall strength has faded away from the ranks of first-line stars, his star temperament is still there. Once he finds the state and is full of firepower, it will be very scary.
At 4 minutes and 07 seconds into the third quarter, McGrady contributed a wonderful shot of a back-up dunk after a steal.
The moment he saw McGrady's reverse dunk, Chen Yan's thoughts were suddenly pulled back to his previous life. Chen Yan remembered that in his previous life, McGrady had a similar dunk that got stuck on the neck of the basket and became the object of ridicule by players and fans. But this time he
There was no such embarrassing scene, McGrady smashed the ball in with great force.
In this time and space, McGrady's athletic ability has not declined so much. This season, he has still completed dunks in position battles from time to time.
Chen Yan's hot state continued into the fourth quarter, but McGrady's touch did not continue. Physical strength has always been a big problem for McGrady. Adelman also saw this, he replaced McGrady with Weaver, and removed McGrady.
The Rockets continued to keep the score tight with the Suns through teamwork, and they played extremely tenaciously tonight.
It was only in the last 3 minutes of the final quarter that McGrady came back on the court. The half-quarter break allowed McGrady to resurrect with full blood. He scored as soon as he came on. After receiving a pass from Dayao, he hit two points on the weak side, and then assisted Scola.
Successful jump shot.
Then Brooks completed a steal and layup, and the Rockets went on a 6-0 spurt to take the lead.
D'Antoni called a timeout to break the Rockets' momentum.
After the timeout, Diaw and Nash played beautifully together, and Diaw assisted Nash in hitting a key three-pointer.
In the next round, little black bean Brooks used Dayao's screen to get inside and cause damage. After making two free throws, the two sides returned to the same starting line again.
Neither side made any achievements in the last minute, and the game went into overtime.
In overtime, Chen Yan became the hero of the team, scoring 8 points to widen the gap, and hitting two free throws at the last minute to help the team seal the victory.
In this game, Chen Yan scored 50 points and continued his scoring momentum.
Under the leadership of Chen Yan, the Suns won all four games this week. He also averaged 46 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game and was undoubtedly the Western Conference Player of the Week.
Xinhua News Agency’s title for Chen Yan’s best title of the week was “If someone stands in the way of someone else, he will kill someone; if someone stands in the way of Buddha, he will kill Buddha.”
ESPN described Chen Yan's performance this week as continuing to be violent.
TNT's perspective game was amazing. They said that Chen Yan had an outbreak after his quarrel with Swift.
Fans joked that basketball players really don’t need women.
But ridicule is a joke. Fans all know that Chen Yan's outburst has little to do with Swift. It is because Stoudemire is absent and he must take on more responsibilities on the offensive end.
