One Guard

Vol 2 Chapter 122: : First contact (4/10)

The Rockets beat the Rockets 116 to 99, the Jazz 115 to 108, the Celtics 89 to 84, the Bucks 82 to 81, and the Timberwolves 117 to 107. [No pop-up novels] This is the transcript of the young Thunder team in the past five games.

With five consecutive victories, as an NBA rookie, the Thunder have had a perfect start to the season. You know, in the first two seasons, five-game winning streak was almost a idiot for the Thunder. But this year, they did it easily.

With the Thunder having won five games in a row, today's morale is naturally quite high. This point was fully demonstrated before Yiyang went on the court. The vitality of the Thunder and the fearless hard work made them feel embarrassed by the Mavericks. And Yiyang's appearance is exactly the way Carlisle is eager to break the deadlock.

This Chinese wearing the Mavericks' away No. 1 jersey is like an icebreaker, maybe he is not the most dangerous weapon in the Mavericks formation. But even the mighty German cannon can only play its greatest role in the path he pioneered.

"I'm also on the field. The collision between these two young guards will definitely bring something different to the game." After the timeout was over, Yiyang replaced Kidd stepping onto the court, and Kevin sat on the commentary platform. Harlan immediately raised the twelve points spirit.

Yiyang took the baseline ball and opened the duel between the two under Westbrook's gaze!

When he was off the court, Yiyang had already observed very clearly. The Thunder's weakness on the defensive end is their weak inside line.

Jeff Green was forced to switch to the fourth position after Durant joined the Thunder, but as far as a fourth position is concerned, Green is not an excellent frame protector. As for the Thunder's starting center Nenad Krstic, the style of the game is too soft and there is no deterrent to the penalty area.

As long as you seize the opponent's weakness and take a fierce attack, you will definitely be able to achieve miraculous effects. So Yiyang stretched out his hand, Tyson reacted immediately, and quickly got rid of Kostich and stepped forward.

Since the "Boxing King" did not have any range, Krstic did not follow out, but continued to stick to the basket. Therefore, when Yiyang borrowed Tyson's pick and roll to break through, Tyson Chandler was in a completely unguarded state.

Facing Westbrook's desperate pursuit, Yiyang, who was staring at the basket, turned the basketball around behind him and hit the ground for a pass.

Tyson Chandler, who cut in from the high post, steadily caught the ball. Since there is no defensive player around, Tyson can sprint unscrupulously!

Krstic, who was standing at the basket, swallowed when he saw the muscular man attacking him. In the next second, Tyson jumped up comfortably, and across the Serbian center with his arms raised, he smashed the ball into the basket extremely violently!

"This ball is not well defended. Even if Tyson has no range, you can't let him go. If you let him sprint and jump comfortably, you can only end up like this." Kevin Harlan shook his head. If the Thunder really want to go further, inside is an important issue they have to solve.

As soon as Yiyang played, he guided Tyson to complete a dunk dunk that was destined to be selected as today's top five. Chandler happily hammered his chest, but Yiyang, who guided all this behind the scenes, was expressionless and immediately returned to defense, waiting for Westbrook's invasion!

"Just passing the ball is nothing!" Westbrook muttered to himself as he pushed forward.

If Yiyang is the kind of more traditional point guard who puts the ball first. So Westbrook is undoubtedly a model of offensive point guard.

The term organization offense seems to have nothing to do with Westbrook's style of play. Even though he can get a lot of assists in a few games occasionally, it is because he takes up a lot of ball time, and it is normal to get a high number of assists.

Seeing Yiyang, who was slightly thin, Westbrook's strong offensive force began to haunt him again.

At this point, Durant has got rid of the old Marion and got an open three-pointer at the bottom left corner. But as a number one, Westbrook did not make any response. For this situation, Durant has long been used to it.

Westbrook has only the rim in his eyes at the moment. He dribbles the ball from his hips several times in a row, and immediately starts to break through with a few snaps.

Yiyang's judgment is very accurate. Training with guys like Kidd every day, Yiyang's defensive ability will naturally not be too bad.

He moved a step very quickly. If it were an ordinary guard, this time the breakthrough is probably only a failure.

But when Yiyang blocked Westbrook, the Thunder's No. 0 was not blocked, but abruptly broke through a gap!

Yiyang's chest was stuffy by Westbrook's shoulders. This guy's physical fitness made Yiyang feel that he was simply a mutant who came out of the comics!

Although extremely strenuous, Yiyang still sticks to Westbrook's side and stays on his feet. But the No. 0 defender gritted his teeth and still chose to force a layup! Yiyang was completely suppressed by Westbrook, whose physical fitness was abnormal, and couldn't effectively interfere with the jump. Westbrook made an easy layup, and Yiyang's first defense ended in such an embarrassing manner!

Suddenly, the cheers in the Chesapeake Energy Arena waved higher than the waves. Fans don't care if Westbrook missed Durant's vacancy, they only know that this No. 0 has brought everyone a very ornamental performance!

"Is this guy still a human!?" Yiyang frowned and muttered to himself in his heart. In the past against the Clippers, the rookie guard Bledsoe of the Clippers was known for his physical fitness. But Yiyang and Bledsoe's confrontation did not feel particularly surprised.

Compared with Westbrook, Bledsoe's physical fitness can only be described as "ordinary".

After the attack, Yiyang still used the pass to guide the team to score. He first distributed the ball to the left corner, and then Marion on the left corner gave the ball to Nowitzki who was in a better position.

In the face of Jeff Green's "fake" position 4, the Germans directly resorted to their signature moves, and the Golden Rooster retreated independently. Although Green tried to block, but in the end he had no choice but to watch the basketball fall into the net.

In this offense, Yiyang didn't even step into the three-point line, and had no scoring or assist data. But as a number one, he guided the team well to implement the tactics set out by Carlisle.

But in Westbrook's view, this time Yiyang's offense is no different from disappearing. Points, assists, rebounds... Westbrook's emphasis on his own data is actually far beyond people's imagination. There is no data in an offense, which for Westbrook is no different from defeat.

Therefore, when the Thunder pushed forward again, Westbrook still did not pass the ball to Jeff Green, who left Nowitzki and ran to the front. Instead, he forcibly attacked the frame again against Yiyang's defense.

This time, Westbrook threw himself away and fell heavily to the ground again. But when the center of gravity was completely lost, the basketball still magically wiped the rebound and hit.

Yiyang reluctantly picked up the basketball on the ground, but Rick Carlisle, who was off the court, slightly cocked the corners of his mouth. Carlisle seems to have found a way to restrict the No. 0 guard.

After scoring four points on Yiyang's head in a row, Westbrook was naturally very excited. So in the next round of defense, this guy sprints forward, trying to take away the basketball in Yiyang's hands, and then make another quick break dunk.

If Westbrook's style of play succeeds, it is naturally full of spectators, but if the gambling steals fail, the consequences are also quite serious.

Not to mention Westbrook, even a steal like Chris Paul, trying to steal basketball from Yiyang is not easy.

Westbrook's forward thrust is indeed very sudden, but as a guy who has tried to protect the basketball from someone who is faster and stronger than him since childhood, Yiyang's nerve to avoid steals is also quite sensitive.

Yiyang reflexively changed hands behind his back, allowing him to avoid the steal of Thunder No. 0 beautifully. After passing Westbrook, Yiyang's eyes are wide open! Although Yiyang is a defender who regards passing as the number one priority, when he faces such a big gap, he will not be polite!

Break through, stop at the position of the free throw line, jump high, and make a soft shot. Every time Rick Carlisle saw this scene, he would think of one item in the scout report when Yiyang participated in the draft. "Shooting is extremely unstable."

"Swipe!" The basketball is hollow into the net, and Yiyang's emergency stop jumpers are always so efficient. When this guy was in the draft, he really didn't shoot very well. But now, Carlisle is extremely relieved of Yiyang's mid-range shooting! This is the result of hard work. Yiyang's scout report seemed to Carlisle to be worthless ~www.novelmtl.com~ because he has changed drastically from before.

After being scored by Yiyang, Westbrook also understood that this guy who came from the slums of Long Beach City like himself was not a persimmon. If he gives him a chance, he can really score a goal.

Due to Westbrook's extremely abnormal body, Yiyang was still very embarrassed on the defensive end afterwards. And the Mavericks still bit the score under the steady organization of Yiyang.

Until the end of the first quarter, neither of the two sides achieved much lead. 24 to 27, the Mavericks ended the first quarter of the game at the Chesapeake Energy Arena by three points.

Yiyang walked off the court out of breath, the pressure that No. 0 brought to him was indeed not small. If you can't solve the problem on the defensive end, the Mavericks may have a hard time keeping the score apart.

"Also, Tyson!" At this moment, Carlisle moved a small bench and sat between Yiyang and Chandler.

"I know what you are upset, kid. Don't worry, now, I'll teach you how to guard against that bastard!" Carlisle smiled confidently at Yiyang. At this time, it's time for him to be the head coach. ......
