Leading by a large score, Yang Rui replaced the main force and began to practice the lineup. Ryan Bowen, John Thomas, Alvin Williams and other substitutes all got the chance to play. ??August 1?Chinese W?W(i)W. 81ZW. com

The Magic took the opportunity to recover some points. Carter, Tracy McGrady, Jermaine O'Neal, and Billups came on, and the point difference widened again.

The two veterans don't have much playing time. Yang Rui learned from the future warriors. The veterans don't need to prove themselves, so they are naturally allowed to play more at critical moments. In 2o15, the Warriors played Iguodala as a substitute for the entire season. When everyone thought he was useless, he helped the team win the finals and stole Curry's mVP.

The greatest weakness of a veteran is physical strength, and preserving physical strength is the kingly way.

The Raptors maintained their advantage until the end, getting off to a good start with 1o8 to 9o.

Except for Carter who played 33 minutes, everyone else played less than 25 minutes, and the team scored in double figures with five players.

Carter made 8 of 17 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, scored 24 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and staged a successful playoff show.

Magic core Hardaway made 4 of 13 shots and 11 of 16 free throws. He scored 19 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals. He played 39 minutes and shot 30.8% from the field. His efficiency was very low.

Moreover, he has always insisted on playing with knee damage. The most effective way to score is to change direction while running and force a breakthrough. Doing so will cause serious injuries sooner or later.

Players from both sides came to the field to shake hands. Chuck Daly left the field without shaking hands with Yang Rui and without a smile on his face.

Daly was extremely depressed. The Magic failed to make the Raptors play their cards in this game. He hates Yang Rui, but he also admires Yang Rui's vicious vision. Now everyone says that the Raptors players have unlimited potential, but last summer, these people were not well-known, had no statistics, and no team was willing to trade if they wanted to.

At the press conference, the reporter asked Daly to comment on Yang Rui. He said: "The Raptors are stronger than the Magic, and the lineup is much better. No matter who leads this team, the results will not be bad. We will fight for it. Create some trouble for the Raptors, so they don't make it easy."

Daley made it clear that he didn't approve of Yang Rui's coaching level. The old coach was about to retire, and he still didn't give good looks to people who didn't like him.

The reporter interviewed Yang Rui excitedly and asked him his opinion on Dali's remarks.

As expected, Yang Rui lived up to expectations, and said unexpectedly: "I completely agree with Coach Daly, he is right, no matter who leads the Raptors, they will have good results.

"

The reporters on the scene were stunned, why are you so cowardly?

A black reporter asked, "Are you saying you're not good enough at coaching?"

"No, I think I'm so lucky, like I won the lottery. The Raptors are such a great team. From the establishment of the team in 1995 to the present, no famous coach is willing to coach, even the ordinary coaches and management. I couldn’t get one. In the end, they were forced to find me, the youngest and inexperienced assistant, so I would like to thank everyone, without your humility, I wouldn’t be where I am today, thank you very much.”

The reporters shot wildly, Yang Rui's self-deprecation was too sharp.

This is not to say that I have no strength, it is obviously thanks to those blind people who looked down on the Raptors before, and of course Daly was involved.

Since you think so highly of the Raptors, why did you choose the Magic in the first place? That's not a big city.

The clever thing is that Yang Rui didn't scold Dali with a single word, and even agreed with his evaluation. Some reporters were worried that Daly would get angry after reading the news.

The Raptors management is completely convinced by Yang Rui. He is bold and full of personality, and he is not afraid of being a Hall of Fame coach. This kind of person is naturally eye-catching.

If Yang Rui wants to leave in the summer, it will be miserable to go to other teams. The Raptors must offer a high salary to renew the contract. Now the initiative is in Yang Rui's hands. Toronto is not a good place, and it is difficult to retain big-name coaches or players. And the strength Yang Rui showed, no need to worry about the team.

In the second game, the Magic also failed to cause trouble for the Raptors. The three-pointer was completely blocked. They only made 3 of 14 shots in the game, and Hardaway made two of them.

Hardaway's shooting percentage was good, 7 of 15, 2 of 3 three-pointers, 8 of 9 free throws, 24 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.

It's a pity that the Magic's role players were not strong offensively. Only three of the team scored in double figures, and they lost 79 to 98.

Returning to the home court, the Magic practiced a three-pointer. Chuck Daly realized that without enough three-point firepower, he would never win against the Raptors. The Raptors' single defense is not too strong, but using the defensive system to block the penalty area will make the Magic uncomfortable.

Being swept away at home, even if Yang Rui didn't say bad things, Daly would have no face to continue working. It is a big stain in life to be picked up by the juniors you look down on.

In addition to practicing three-pointers, Daly also asked the players to increase confrontation and use rough fouls to block the breakthrough of the Raptors. If possible, it is best to injure one or two. Even if the Magic is finally out, it won't make things easier for the Raptors.

The bad boys of the Pistons played dirty, Daly's teaching played a very important role, and this old man was the most ruthless.

If a soldier destroys one, he will destroy a whole nest.

Some people say that Daly is the prototype of Coach Anzai in the "Slam Dunk" comics, because Sakuragi Sakuragi is Rodman, so Daddy can only be Daley, and his nickname happens to be Rich Daddy.

But Anxi is still called "White Buddha" in the comics. People like Daly who advocates simplicity and rudeness will never become a Buddha.

Fortunately, Yang Rui knows the character of the opponent. As the saying goes, a dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and a rabbit mows the grass in a hurry. The Magic will not be willing to be swept away, and must work hard at home.

Even if the Magic win a game, Yang Rui will not let the players take the risk of injury and fight the Magic at home. Players should work hard on the court, and that depends on the occasion, not the first round.

Therefore, Yang Rui gave Kevin Willis more playing time. This veteran is good at protecting himself; the backup center mainly uses Cato, who is physically strong and hard to get injured.

In terms of offensive tactics, the Raptors focus on catching and shooting from the outside, mid-range and long-range shots with the ball, and the players have reduced breakthroughs.

In this way, Daly's close defense and savage rushing tactics are useless. The inside line is still afraid to go to the slow-moving big man, so the speed of defense must be guaranteed.

It is of course a tragedy for the Magic to be forced to compete with the Raptors in shooting.

Nick Anderson's shot was so determined that Yang Rui could vaguely see the shadow of Stephen Curry in the future, and he was still the Curry whose plug-in in the finals expired.

Due to Anderson's undercover success, the Raptors' defense is very good. He made 10 of 26 shots, 4 of 13 three-pointers, 5 of 7 free throws, 29 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals.

Hardaway made 3 of 17 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 9 of 12 free throws, barely scored 17 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists.

On the Raptors side, Carter, who was arranged to play off the ball, exploded unexpectedly. He made 14 of 27 shots, 4 of 7 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 37 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

105 to 91, the Raptors swept the Magic 3-0 and advanced to the second round.
