And in this, when Howard faced the physically energetic Bynum, his offensive finishing rate at the basket was not very high, so most of the Magic's offensive attacks were concentrated on Su Jiu and Lewis in the entire first quarter.

Su Jiu and Lewis try to find offensive space through teammates' pick-and-roll on the offensive end.

After all, in the starting lineup, the players responsible for defending Su Jiu and Lewis are Fisher and Gasol.

Both players can be said to have big and small problems on the defensive end. Fisher's movement speed is slower and Gasol's center of gravity is too high.

So when Su Jiu and Lewis use the pick-and-roll without the ball, they can always get some shot space of big and small.

Especially in this game, Fisher took a step further against Su Jiu's defense, which led to Su Jiu starting to frequently attack outside the three-point line.

Although Su Jiu was facing all the iron shots in the previous three-point shots, this did not affect Su Jiu's confidence on the offensive end at all.

Instead, he became more determined in the next three-point shooting.

Finally, after the first quarter, the Lakers, who played at home, took:

22:18

He led the Magic by 4 points and ended the first quarter between the two sides.

With the end of the first quarter, the entire Staples Arena was already in a cheerful atmosphere.

Because the current situation on the court is very beneficial to the Lakers, even allowing home fans to see hope of winning the game.

The main reason why the Magic faced a backward end at the end of the first quarter was that the Lakers cut off the connection between Su Jiu and his teammates.

Forced Su Jiu to complete more individual singles and refused to allow Su Jiu to drive the attacks of other teammates through passing the ball.

Simply put, the Lakers' defensive method in this game is to resolutely prevent Su Jiu from having a chemical reaction with other teammates.

Even in this process, the Lakers need to pay the price of letting Su Jiu take action from outside the three-point line more easily, but in order to cut off the overall smooth attack of the Magic team, Zen Master Jackson still made the decision without hesitation.

In the last game, the Magic contributed 8 assists in a single quarter at the end of the first quarter, but in the first quarter of this game, the Magic finally gave only 3 assists.

And at the same time, Su Jiu's projection outside the three-point line was not able to find the feel.

Therefore, when the team's overall offense is not smooth and Su Jiu's personal touch is quite poor, this season, the Magic team, which is blooming at multiple points, was directly hit by the life gate.
