The 248th chapter starts, the first round of the playoffs!(1/2)
After the All-Star Weekend, the schedule entered the fast lane.
There are 7 games left in February, the Rockets, Bulls, Knicks, Clippers, Raptors, Pacers and Heat.
The Magic won 6 wins and 1 loss.
Lost to the Knicks.
Kidd's condition will come once or twice a month, shooting until he has no friends, showing the enhanced side of "Ki No Attack".
When Duncan was no longer stable, it was not surprising that the Magic lost the game when they encountered a defensive team like the Knicks.
Da Ben joined the Knicks and was getting better and he scored a new high in rebounding.
The Golden Double Gun Houston and Madman feel hot, with both offense and defense, and the Knicks are quite competitive.
In the bad match against other teams, he scored the third record in the East.
53 wins and 4 losses!!
After the February schedule ended, the official strength rankings still topped the Lakers and ranked first.
Entering the March schedule, the Magic continued to show their strength, but still lost two of them.
The more you hit the back, the more physical and psychological pressure you will be.
The occasional upset, coupled with the second time I met the Lakers and lost the game.
There is nothing impossible to lose two games, and the record is still stable on the Lakers.
With a record of 67 wins and 6 losses, the Magic entered the final sprint of the April schedule.
Cavaliers, Nets, Hornets, Knicks, Nuggets, 76ers, Grizzlies, Hawks...
After they all fell down one after another, April 17 was coming in a blink of an eye.
In the final game of the 0102 season, the Magic met the Heat at home.
With a record of 35 wins and 46 losses, the Heat have bid farewell to the playoff stage.
The game was one-sided from the beginning.
The first half laid a 25-point lead.
If it weren't for fear of the Heat's being in trouble and hurting the Magic Team, they would probably be beaten for the '58th Tragedy'.
Finally, the Heat's iron-blooded basketball is still very intimidating, and the Magic will be on the rotation lineup in the second half.
The entire game was only 23 points lighter than the Zou Heat.
The 0102 NBA regular season officially ended.
The Magic won the longest consecutive game and won 33 games, and finally ranked first in the league with a record of 76 wins and 6 losses. They have a home game advantage throughout the playoffs.

...
On April 21, Orlando, TD Water House Center Arena. In the 0102 season, the Magic's playoffs against the Hornets started.
During simple appearance and warm-up, the starting lineup of both sides tonight was played on the big screen of the arena.
Magic 5 players, Kidd, McGrady, Jackson, Duncan, O'Neal Jr.
The Hornets start, Byron Davis, David Wesley, Marshburn, Elden Campbell, PJ Brown.
Beep ~
In the jump ball, Duncan easily defeated PJ Brown and won the first attack for the Magic.
In the frontcourt, Kidd handed the basketball to McGrady.
At the top of the three-point line, McGrady received the ball and made three offensive threats.
David Wesley defends McGrady.
On the commentary stage, Barkley laughed and shook his head.
"This is an unfair matchup, and I don't know what the Hornets head coach is thinking.
He actually thought of using David Wesley to mark the scoring champion McGrady.
This is too ridiculous!”
There is no way.
The small team only has these layouts.
There is no choice for David Wellis.
Moreover, on the other hand, David Wesley threatened that David Wesley's defense was very good.
I don't know if it's true.
If it is 183 vs 183, it is estimated that David Wesley's defense can be.
However, David Wellis' height looks only 1.80 meters tall.
McGrady's height is 2.03 meters.
this……
McGrady didn't think about it and made a three-point jump shot. He slowly glanced, but the opponent was air defense anyway.
Swish—!
The basketball's arc was straight, hitting the basket and hitting a three-pointer.
0 to 3!!
Paul Silas shook his head.
He was also very helpless.
That's the card in your hand.
