"Bang," Jamal Nelson's emergency jump shot missed, and the ball bounced out of the basket.
When Ryan Hollins was fighting for a rebound with Marcin Gortat, he pushed him from behind and was called a rebound foul by the referee.
Since they already led their opponents by 17 points after three quarters, the Cavaliers were almost purely substitutes in the first few minutes of the last quarter.
However, Fang Chen did not replace **-Hickson. Although **-Hixon played the second most minutes on the team tonight, second only to Ramon Sessions, he didn't seem to feel the slightest fatigue.
So, before the start of the fourth quarter, **-Hixon took the initiative to ask Fang Chen for help. Of course Fang Chen would not dampen **Hixon's enthusiasm and readily agreed.
In fact, in the second half of the third quarter, Fang Chen also discovered that **-Hickson still had a lot of physical strength. In addition, his performance tonight was quite outstanding and his fighting spirit was naturally high, so Fang Chen agreed to him without hesitation.
At the beginning of the final quarter, the Magic team seemed to be going crazy, attacking the Cavaliers' basket ferociously.
Although the Magic are already 17 points behind the Cavaliers, they have not dispatched most of their main players to chase points during this period. Instead, like the Cavaliers, only Jamal Nelson is the starter and stays on the court.
It seems that they were hit by the dull atmosphere of the home fans, and the Magic were very unwilling to lose to the Cavaliers at their home court.
So, under the leadership of Jamal Nelson, the substitute players worked hard to launch a counterattack, trying to narrow the point difference as much as possible before the main players came back.
When Stan Van Gundy saw this scene, he suddenly felt a little warm in his heart. Even though they were repeatedly humiliated by the weak team, the players still did not lose their fighting spirit, which is undoubtedly a good thing.
Even if they lose to the Cavaliers in the end, Stan Van Gundy won't care too much. After all, the players have tried their best. The only fault is that the Cavaliers played too well offensively tonight and had great luck.
Ryan Hollins fouled on a rebound, and the Magic still had the ball.
Although Jamal Nelson's layup after a breakthrough did not go in, it caused a defensive foul on ** Hickson.
This was already **-Hickson¡¯s fourth foul. Seeing this, Fang Chen had the idea of ??replacing him.
After all, **-Hickson is the Cavaliers' arrow tonight. If he receives another foul, then there will probably be no **-Hickson's role in the second half of the last quarter.
What's more, **-Hickson also played a lot of time tonight. Although he said he was not tired, he still had to make adequate preparations for the final contest.
"Fang, it's time to change the **." Chris Janet also suggested to Fang Chen at this time.
Fang Chen nodded, then walked to Antoine Jamison and said to him: "Antoine, you go and replace **. Wait with Morris and attack the Magic's basket with all your strength."
Antoine Jamison had already been impatient for a long time, so he said ¡®hmm¡¯, took off his coat, and started doing warm-up exercises on the sidelines.
Jamal Nelson made a free throw, and the first free throw was easily hit.
At this time, Antoine Jamison came on to replace ** Hickson.
?? **-Although Hickson didn't want to end the game, he had to go to the bench when he thought about the number of fouls he committed and the game in the second half of the final quarter.
"That damn young boy finally went down, but this Jamison is not an easy guy to deal with." Stan Van Gundy still did not relax at all.
Fang Chen walked to the sidelines and called Mo Williams to his side while Jamal Nelson was taking a free throw.
"Afterwards, try your best to hit their basket. Then I will allow you to fire without restriction. However, you must ensure the success rate. And if you have the chance, cooperate more with Antoine." Fang Chen assigned the task To Mo Williams.
Now, Fang Chen is completely using Mo Williams as a player like Jamal Crawford, JR Smith and Jason Terry.
These guys are all scoring gangsters on the bench of their respective teams. Their task on the field is to score points.
At present, except for Jamario Moon, the Cavaliers' lineup on the field is not a defensive player.
Ryan Hollins at the center position has height, but at 2.13 meters, he only weighs 104 kilograms, which is not as heavy as ** Hickson, who is 2.06 meters tall. Therefore, Ryan Hollins has almost no other advantages on defense except his height.
Therefore, Fang Chen did not expect him to perform well in defense. Instead, he arranged for him to move to the high position to provide space for the running players.Friends provide cover.
Antoine Jamison and Mo Williams have not been defensive players since they entered the league. Both of these guys are players who are serious about offense and defense.
Although Daniel Gibson was placed in the second position and worked very hard on the defensive end, his physical condition somewhat limited his defense.
Therefore, with such a lineup, Fang Chen was also under great pressure.
Fang Chen has only one task for the players, which is to attack and replace defense with offense.
"Chris, we are in urgent need of a trade now. Except for Anderson and Jamario, this team has almost no defensive players." Fang Chen is quite troubled by the team's current lineup.
Chris Janet shook his head helplessly, and Fang Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Everything has to wait until you actually sit in this position before you can implement it. However, you can plan in advance now."
When Fang Chen heard this, he also looked helpless.
But he is very much looking forward to what will happen when he officially becomes the head coach of this team after ten games. At that time, he can integrate the team with his own team.
Let Fang Chen give up this season and go for the No. 1 pick?
This is absolutely impossible!
Even though the Cavaliers are now at the bottom of the league and have only won one game in fourteen games, Fang Chen, who is extremely competitive, will never give up.
As he said in front of the media, his goal this season is still the playoffs.
Jamal Nelson missed his second free throw. Moon Man grabbed the backboard and handed it to Mo Williams.
According to Fang Chen¡¯s arrangement, Mo Williams attacked the Magic¡¯s basket with all his strength.
"Dip", Mo Williams also caused a defensive foul on the Magic team.
The foul was committed by Marcin Gortat, and Mo Williams got two free throw opportunities.
In this game, several players on the Magic team were in foul trouble.
Currently, ¡®Warcraft¡¯ Howard has five fouls, Marcin Gortat has four fouls, Brandon Bass has three fouls, and even ¡®no three, no four¡¯ Rashad Lewis has four fouls.
Watching Mo Williams make a solid first free throw, Fang Chen relaxed a little and began to think about how to rebuild the team after he became the team's official head coach.
