One Guard

"The incredible Chinese!"

After the series ended, the media across the United States gave Yiyang such a title. 4-0, the Mavericks cleanly killed the Los Angeles Clippers. It was originally considered the most suspenseful set of duels, but the winner was decided early.

"I believe that Los Angeles Clippers fans will never forget this young point guard. It was him who completely interrupted the Clippers' five-year playoff dream."

Watching the red light on the backboard light up, Paul put on the hood on the training uniform. He stared at the big screen blankly, looking at the desperate figure. 109 to 98, Los Angeles Clippers, out!

This is not the first time Paul's dream has been shattered, so he just faced all this blankly. But in fact, the "Queen Bee" is very distressed in his heart, thinking that everything will start again when he arrives in Los Angeles. As everyone knows, the final outcome is still the same as before.

Looking at Yiyang, who was worshipped by the fans, Paul took the initiative to step up and walked to Yiyang.

Yiyang looked at Paul in surprise, but Paul said nothing but embraced Yiyang. After that, he still said nothing, and left alone.

This is Paul's recognition of his younger generations, and of course, it is also a challenge. "You won this year, and I won't lose again next year."

"What did that guy say to you?" Kidd came up curiously and asked Yiyang. Yiyang stared at Paul's drifting back and gently shook his head.

"No, he didn't say anything, but he said nothing..."

Chris Paul is really an interesting opponent.

The day after the game ended, the Los Angeles media attributed the Clippers' loss to Griffin and Paul's injuries. For the strength that was swept out of the game, injury is simply a perfect excuse.

"If Griffin and Chris were not injured, we should be promoted now!"

"Chris' injury came too late, otherwise how could he have a chance to beat him."

"This is just the first season Paul joined the Clippers. They have a long way to go. I believe the Clippers will have even better results in the future!"

The fans and media in Los Angeles are using various remarks to paralyze their nerves. They just don't want to admit one point: Yiyang and Mavericks are indeed unexpectedly powerful!

Griffin started his vacation with peace of mind under these excuses, but what about Chris Paul? He doesn't listen to the **** of the media. On the first day after the holiday began, he began to develop a training plan.

The duel with Yiyang had a great impact on Paul. If you do not work hard and stagnate, sooner or later you will be overtaken by the rising star!

Before the game, the media called the "most suspenseful" round of the game, but it fell to the curtain with a 4-0 result. This can't help but make people think about whether the outside world is too bad for the Mavericks, or whether the Mavericks have performed beyond the standard in the entire series.

After the fight with the Clippers, the Mavericks players finally got a chance to breathe. Currently, the second thunder in the West and the seventh Nuggets in the West are in the midst of a fierce battle. The winner of these two teams is the Mavericks' opponent in the next round.

At present, the Thunder have achieved a 3-0 lead, and their results have not surprised the media at all.

If a year ago, the Thunder were just a young guard in people's minds. So now, they have grown into an out-and-out western powerhouse.

The duel with the Thunder may start in a few days, but Carlisle decided to give the team a day off first. Rest may be more important than training in the current situation.

※※※

The Mavericks successfully advanced, and the team had a day off, which made the US Airline Center Arena instantly become empty.

Yiyang still came to the entrance of the arena early in the morning, but he didn't lead the way.

"Today the team is not training, yeah." Seeing Yiyang standing at the entrance of the arena, the guard old Ian was a little strange. This child knows the degree, he will not run to train when he needs a rest.

Yiyang turned to look at the old guard, and smiled slightly. "I know, I am here today to participate in a commercial event to take a cover photo for the NBA2K game."

"Oh? You are very busy now." Old Ian laughed. Yiyang really grew up in the next step of his gaze.

From being questioned when he first entered Dallas, his poster is now hung in the middle of the American Airlines Center Arena. Everything Yiyang has experienced has surpassed Old Ian's original imagination.

"So, you are the cover character of this year's NBA2K game!?"

"Me, Derek Rose and Kevin Durant." Yiyang showed three fingers, not being the cover character alone, which is indeed a bit regrettable.

"Then I must buy one for my grandson this year, he must love it!"

"No, old Ian. If I can, I will send you a collector's edition."

The two were chatting, and the 2K company's photography team had already rushed over with the equipment with long guns and short guns.

Ian opened the door to the arena for them. This is the first time this old doorman who has been working for decades has encountered shooting game covers in Dallas.

Yiyang waved his hand to say goodbye to Old Ian, and then led the photography team into the training ground to start shooting.

Seeing the group of people walking into the arena, Old Ian shook his head.

"Do you know what was in my mind when I first saw you here, also?" Old Ian muttered to himself at the gate. "I'm thinking, there's another hapless one in Dallas!"

Indeed, the old Ian has seen countless young and talented point guards come here, but in the end they have no choice but to leave. Kidd is like this, Nash is like this, and Harris is like this.

But this time...Old Ian believed that he might never see and leave the US Airline Center Arena. This Chinese, like Dirk, is slowly growing into the banner of Dallas.

One day's holiday, Yiyang finally finished the 2K game cover shooting. The old guys of the Mavericks have also been fully rested, ready to meet the challenges of the next round.

Today, the Thunder and the Nuggets will start their fifth matchup. If the Nuggets win, then the Mavericks continue to rest. If the Thunder wins, it indicates that Yiyang's opponents in the second round of the game will be stronger.

Therefore, for today's training, Carlisle also plans to lay out tactics in full accordance with the characteristics of the Thunder. Although the Nuggets were struggling to win back a city, Carlisle knew very well that they could not squeeze the Thunder's youth army.

In the locker room, energetic players are hurrying to change their equipment. After eliminating the Clippers, everyone was very excited. The first round easily passed, and it has also allowed people to see the Mavericks' perfect connection between the old and the new.

Nowitzki retired to the second place, and Yiyang led the team to triumph. And Yiyang's flyby this season has made Old Kidd's exposure much less.

"Jason, where did you go during the holiday yesterday?" In the locker room, the players chatted while changing their equipment. Nowitzki casually asked Kidd a question, and everyone didn't take it too seriously.

"Yesterday? I took care of the garden at home, watering, weeding and so on."

"My goodness Jason, are you already living in old age?" Terry immediately started his own complaint mode, but the Mavericks players always seem to ignore one problem. Kidd is really old. ....

"Let's go, accompany me to practice first." After Kidd changed his clothes, he stood up and jumped twice. As always, Kidd would always call Yiyang to warm up with him. Yiyang would never refuse, after all, this was the person he most respected in the entire locker room.

"Is your physical condition okay recently?" In the player channel, Yiyang also asked about Kidd again. Now Kidd is no longer surprised by Yiyang's concern, but has long been accustomed to it.

"I'm almost 40 years old, and it's not much better. How can I say it? It's not bad, hahaha." Kidd laughed and covered his troubles. I hope this year's playoffs will be safe for him. Live it.

Everything was proceeding step by step. Yiyang and Kidd warmed up on the court. Gradually, more and more players appeared on the training ground. Finally, Carlisle gave a whistle and gathered everyone together. After simply arranging the planned tasks, everyone started to work on their own.

Yiyang mainly conducts a breakthrough layup training under confrontation. This training requires three trainers to hold soft cushions to fight against Yiyang respectively. And Yiyang has to complete a breakthrough layup in a high-intensity confrontation.

There is no doubt that this training is specially prepared for Yiyang to face Westbrook. Westbrook is the most terrifying defender in this league. If Yiyang wants to defeat him, he must first adapt to the feeling of high-intensity confrontation.

As for Yiyang's substitute Kidd, he simply performed these exercises of lateral movement. For veterans, too much training is not worth the loss.

At the end of the training, Carlisle still arranged confrontational training for the players. Only training close to actual combat is the best way to test the results.

Although it is an adversarial training, the Mavericks players rarely get injured in this training~www.novelmtl.com~ After all, everyone is in the same team, knows how to protect each other, and will not foul maliciously.

In the face of Kidd, who was in possession of the ball, Yiyang would not even fight with all his strength. This season's tight schedule is a torture for the "old" Kidd. Various injuries have come to his door. The back, calf and groin injuries have prevented him from missing many games this season. Yiyang didn't want this old guy to be injured again under his own defense.

However, Kidd's body is already very fragile. Sometimes it is not others who will hurt him, but he will hurt himself...

In a defense, Yiyang's sudden sprint allowed him to easily take away the basketball from Kidd's hand. In order to put pressure on Yiyang, Kidd immediately turned around and robbed him. Since Yiyang is very fast, Kidd must also use his swift force to ensure that he can keep up before Yiyang throws himself off.

Because of this, Kidd exerted too much force, coupled with sweat on the training ground, the veteran suddenly slipped and fell to the ground, while Kidd, who was in a running posture, had his thighs violently pulled diagonally. a bit!

"what!"

With a scream, Kidd clutched his thigh in pain on the ground, sweating, and gritted his teeth.

Yiyang immediately threw the basketball away and rushed to the treatment room to shout for his teammates. Carlisle also hurriedly stepped into the court, clenching his fists.

Earlier, Kidd told himself that he wanted to retire after this season. Last year, Carlisle could use Yiyang's growth to persuade Kidd to stay. But this year, Carlisle has no reason to obstruct Kidd.

Kidd knows his physical condition, and Carlisle also knows Kidd's thoughts. If the injury is serious this time...

If it is serious, then Kidd's career may have to come to an end...
