In the 2009 finals series, only 23-year-old Howard took the stage, with ups and downs, like riding a roller coaster, up and down.
In the first game, the Lakers sat at Staples Stadium and beat Magic by 25 points. The magic team's fiasco has a lot to do with the poor state of star Howard, but it is the first time for us to participate in the finals. Howard played a game and his shooting percentage dropped sharply. He only scored one goal in six shots, and finally made his score break through double digits with a free throw. In contrast, Kobe Bryant, the star of the Lakers, is in a very good state, with 40 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists, playing magic.
In the second French match, the scorer who experienced the abnormal performance in the first game gradually recovered. He made five of ten shots and scored 17 from the free throw, which was much better than the previous match day. Also grabbed 16 rebounds, 4 assists, and sent out 4 hot pot blocks. It is precisely because of his play that he gradually got on the right track, so in this away game. Kobe continued his fiery state, scoring 29 points and sending 8 assists.
The third game came to the home of Magic. It was a battle of Tianwang Mountain. If the Lakers win again, it is very likely that the magic will be swept away. Then Howard stood up. ? In the whole game, he made 50 shots in 6 times and made 2 free throws1point. I also sent a lot of hot pot blocks and won 14 rebounds. In this game, the Magic beat the Lakers by four points and tied the total score to two to one.
However, in the next contest, the Magic lost to the Lakers at home. Howard's performance is still not strong enough in this crucial game. His shooting percentage is below 50% again, 12 5 shots. Hemp ball is even worse. He stood on the free throw line only six times, and the team lost eight points in the end. However, he sent nine blocked shots in this game, which was quite amazing.
Howard lost his last game completely. I have a crush on him, as if he has figured out how to spend his holiday, and only got 1 1 points. In the end, the team was defeated and handed over the championship.
Generally speaking, because the Lakers insider led by Gasol and others put a lot of pressure on Howard, Warcraft was greatly restricted in this series and did not show the elegance of the first center at that time.
