The two biggest dark horse teams in the league this season are undoubtedly them.
Minnesota Timberwolves in the West.
Orlando Magic in the East.
Both teams have shown good fighting power since the start of the new season.
The Forest team currently sits in the No. 1 position in the league, while the Magic team is also in No. 3 in the East
In the last two games, the Magic have had problems because of form.
So they lost to the Nets and the Cavaliers one after another.
Playing at home today, they face the challenge of the Detroit Pistons!
In the first quarter of the game, the Magic team showed a good offensive state.
As soon as the game began, Banchero made a foul on Stewart.
Both free throws helped the team open the scoring, but Bagley on the Pistons' side responded immediately
In the following time, the two teams launched a battle against each other, and the game was 3 minutes and 26 seconds.
On the Magic's side, Anthony scored on a fast-break throw-in to tie the score at 18
Subsequently, the Magic scored one after another, playing a wave of 10-0 offensive climax.
Although the Pistons stopped the bleeding in time, they still trailed their opponents 23-28 at the end of the first quarter.
In the second quarter of the game, the Magic team still maintained a high-pressure situation.
As soon as he came up, he sent a wave of 5-0 to the opponent, and the game played for two minutes.
On the Pistons' side, Hayes hit a 2-point shot, and then the Magic went on an 11-0 offensive run
The Pistons, on their side, were unable to cope in the face of the Magic's strong offensive pressure.
The Pistons looked a little cramped, although Bogdanovic scored in the final moments.
But the Pistons were never able to match the Magic's offensive pace.
At halftime, the Magic led the Pistons 58-44.
The second half was suddenly one-sided.
In the third quarter of the game, the Magic scored 35 points in a single quarter, while the Pistons only scored 24 points in a single quarter.
In the fourth quarter of the game, the Magic scored 30 points in a single quarter, while the Pistons only scored 23 points in a single quarter
It seems that the Magic team is going to spill all the anger of the first two games on the Pistons.
In addition to the team's excellent overall condition, Wagner Jr. on the Magic side also ushered in a big explosion of form in the second half of the game!
- In the third quarter of the game, he scored 7 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
- In the fourth quarter of the game, he scored 12 points
It was precisely because of his sudden outburst in the second half that the Magic team finally won the game!
In terms of statistics, five players on the Magic side scored double-doubles
Wagner Jr. recorded 27 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists.
Banchero chipped in 24 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.
Bitadze scored 13 points, Harris scored 11 and Anthony off the bench scored 16
With all the players in full condition, the Magic team played really well today.
On the Pistons' side, only three players on the team scored double-doubles
Cunningham finished with 21 points, two rebounds and six assists on 8-of-15 shooting.
Hayes finished with 16 points, seven rebounds and four assists on 7-of-11 shooting.
Substitute Box scored 14 points.
Aside from these three, no player on the Pistons' side scored in double figures.
It is worth mentioning that the team's backup center Wiseman, in today's game, the Warriors prince did not make a single shot in the whole game, and only relied on free throws to score 2 points, but his playing time was as high as 15 minutes and 40 seconds.
Wiseman's performance can really coach Monty to death.
When the Pistons first traded him, they wanted him to work out more and grow into an interior pillar for the team.
I never thought that this guy was really terrible, he had been playing for so many seasons, and he didn't make any progress at all.
Now I don't even dare to shoot on the court, alas, this shows how unique the draft vision of the Warriors management was!
Fans and friends, do you think Wiseman can continue to play in the NBA?Welcome to discuss!
