One Guard

The electronic buzzer sounded, and the red light on the backboard was like a signal. When it lit up, all the fans in the American Airlines Center Arena stood up.

They applauded frantically, their eyes focused on one person. 31 points, 10 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 blocked shot. He played 44 minutes and was exhausted. Yiyang is the only focus in today's game.

"A great game, this is a great game. I also used my strong perseverance to break the Thunder's dream of advancement. Look at the expression on Coach Brooks's face, maybe even he didn't expect the Thunder to be With such a good performance, he actually lost." Barkley said, and joined the applause.

After the game, Yiyang sat back on the bench. He spread out his limbs and fell on the bench, seeming to have no strength to move.

Yiyang didn't know how he persevered just now. In short, as soon as the game ended, his whole body was softened.

Countless photographers carried the machine to take shots of Yiyang sitting on the bench, but at this time, no one went up to interview him. Yiyang's performance has won the respect of everyone, even the reporter knows that what this guy needs now is rest.

"We won, boss." Yiyang sat on the bench, turning his head and smiling at Carlisle.

"Yes, you led us to victory. We won." Carlisle squatted down, holding Yiyang's face in both hands.

"I can't walk anymore."

"It's okay, we're not going anywhere..."

At this time, in the luxurious box of the arena, Cuban raised the wine glass in his hand, but it froze in place, as if it turned into a stone sculpture.

"This summer we will definitely receive a lot of offers about Yi." Next to Cuban, the Mavericks general manager Nelson Jr. joked.

"Unless someone can take out the 20-year-old Michael Jordan, Downey. Otherwise, I won't go anywhere!" Cuban took a sip of his drink and moistened his dry throat.

The question is, can anyone in this league come up with 20-year-old Jordan? What Kuban meant was that Yiyang, like Nowitzki, is now not for sale!

"What if the Lakers take out Gasol and Bynum?" Nelson Jr. joked that the Lakers missed Paul last summer, and they will definitely hit other people's ideas. And Kobe himself likes Yiyang very much. If Kobe puts pressure on it, the Lakers management can't be indifferent!

"Pau and Bynum? The Los Angeles people could simply go to rob the bank building." Cuban waved his hand, he really regretted that he chose to watch the game in the luxurious box today. Otherwise, he can also applaud Yiyang among the fans at this time.

After resting on the bench for nearly five minutes, Yiyang just stood up again. He walked slowly to the locker room. He could still make up for the button, but now he feels strenuous to walk with his legs.

But the Mavericks did not step forward to support him. This was not because other people sat and watched, but because letting Yiyang go off the court was the most dignified way to call the curtain call.

It's been a while since the game ended, and the blocks near the stadium will definitely become a "second-hand car trading market" later. But even so, no fans left. They have been watching Yiyang walk into the player channel, and will never leave before then.

Yiyang walked to the entrance of the player's passage, raised his arms strenuously, and high-five the fans in the stands on both sides.

Mou Ran immediately squatted down, took out the camera, and captured this scene.

The back of Dallas One with his hands raised is leaving, and around him are a group of sincere followers. One of the most classic photos in the history of the Mavericks was born under Mougins.

After Yiyang walked into the player's passage, the clamor suddenly became much smaller, and the lights were no longer so dazzling. The staff in the passage also stood on both sides one by one, applauding Yiyang.

After walking a few steps, Yiyang saw that there seemed to be someone blocking his way. Looking up, it turned out that it was Vignali who was granted a permit to enter the player channel.

The tall Italian girl clenched her fists and stood straight in front of Yiyang. She was not alive and kicking as usual, but her eyes were flushed.

"Vig...I..."

Before Yiyang finished speaking, Vignali plunged into Yiyang's arms. "Have you heard the shouting of the MV?"

"I heard it, I heard it..." Yiyang hugged Vignali, and leaned her body weight up to save herself.

Do my best, it turned out to be such an experience...

"Yi's performance today is really exaggerated!"

"Yeah, I have been fighting for so long, and at the critical moment, I am not soft."

"This playoffs, he has completed a qualitative leap! Next season, he may be the league's first-tier star."

"What nonsense, I think he is already a first-tier star in the league now!"

In the lively media reception room, reporters chatted non-stop. This group of people crowded in the small reception room waiting for the press conference to begin, but today, they seem to be extra patient.

Finally, the female press officer of the Mavericks pushed open the door of the media reception room. The reporters became excited one by one, and raised their cameras one after another.

Carlisle came in first, followed by Nowitzki. Then, then there was no one.

"Didn't you come?" A reporter couldn't help looking around for a while to confirm that Yiyang was not hiding under the table.

"I won't come to the press conference today. I believe everyone understands that he has to take a good rest." Carlisle finished speaking and sat down with Nowitzki. It seems that the only two of them are here to attend the press conference today.

Reporters look at me, I look at you. Even if Yiyang did not attend in person, even Nowitzki scored 23 points well today, but they were most concerned about issues related to Yiyang.

"Coach Carlisle, how do you comment on the incredible performance today?" The reporter of the Dallas Evening Post raised his hand and directly pushed the press conference to the police.

Carlisle originally had a lot to say, because Yiyang's performance today is not clear in one or two sentences. After thinking for a long time, Carlisle leaned on the backrest and spread out his hands.

"What can I say? I also bless Dallas."

Taking advantage of Yiyang's popularity in the playoffs, NA2K took advantage of the heat and announced that Yiyang has become one of the cover figures of their latest work 2K13.

As soon as this news came out, many fans said that they would buy the game as soon as it came out! 2K’s business decisions are indeed very successful. They know what to do to maximize the sales of their games.

The outstanding performance in the playoffs, coupled with the blessing of 2K games, undoubtedly allowed Yiyang to temporarily surpass Duncan, Kobe, and James, and become the hottest star at this time.

However, watching himself become popular for half of the sky, watching his business value increase day by day, watching Bill Duffy's next huge commercial contract for himself, Yiyang couldn't be happy.

In the second day of training, Yiyang was in very bad condition. It's not that he didn't work hard enough, but that he really doesn't have much strength anymore. He is worried about how he will face if he loses the next game, if the Mavericks are eliminated.

Yiyang has been going too smoothly since entering NA, just to come to a team where the main point guard is getting old. In his rookie season, he won the championship trophy directly with the team. Yiyang has also won various honors, large and small. He has never experienced failure, so he doesn't know what it feels like to fail. However, failure is also something that a professional player must experience to grow up.

LeBron James has never touched a championship so far, and Chris Paul is still struggling for the floor of the Western Conference Finals. Nash, who has come to the end of his career, still has not left his name on the stage of the finals.

These indispensable experiences must be experienced even by Yiyang, who has been going smoothly.

Two days later, at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma, the tiebreaker between the two sides officially began. The continuous running has made the young and energetic Oklahoma somewhat overwhelmed, not to mention that all the Mavericks have already been devoted to it.

Now, the Thunder have also been forced to the edge of the cliff, and the potential that those three youngsters burst out is also difficult for the Mavericks to parry.

Less than four minutes into the game, Durant had already scored 8 consecutive points with 4 of 4 shots. Durant can't wait to get to the next level. He will not allow himself to lose to the same team for the second year in a row.

On the Mavericks side, Yiyang has reduced the number of breakthroughs and frequently shot outside. The reason is also very simple, his physical stamina does not support him to continue to hit the basket desperately again and again!

In the first quarter, the two sides were evenly matched. But in the second quarter of the game, the points difference began to gradually increase.

Harden and Westbrook's two guards alternated the impact, causing a lot of trouble for the Mavericks inside. Even if they can't score, they can frequently commit fouls.

After Yiyang managed to break through and be violated, the referee turned a blind eye to it most of the time.

The Thunder's three little players played against the Heat's Big Three. This is a long-awaited matchup for the fans. It's hard to tell whether the league deliberately manipulated the scale for business reasons. NA has never been an absolutely fair arena.

In the fourth quarter, when Yiyang finally evened the score with a three-pointer, Barkley uttered a heartbreaking roar.

The Thunder had attacked for so long, but they still didn't kill Yiyang. Barkley has already devoted himself to the game. He seems to be watching a defender version of himself playing on the court.

The Mavericks are still struggling, they don't care whether they are crawling in the quagmire. As long as the Thunder can be dragged off the horse, everything is worth it.

In the last two minutes of the game, the Thunder took a one-point lead. This time, Westbrook was completely unable to stand up under Yiyang's defense. The No. 0 defender was amazed that Yiyang was exhausted, but he was always able to block himself in time.

Seeing that Westbrook was unable to get a chance, Harden took the initiative and rushed to Westbrook for the ball.

Although very unwilling, Westbrook still gave the ball to Harden and let the bearded attack.

As a new generation of Super Sixth Man, Harden has deflated Terry in this series. The storm of youth, sometimes really cannot be stopped by pure experience. Harden first made a three-threat step with the ball, and then used Ibaka's pick and roll to get inside.

He didn't fear the fierce Heywood, but directly took off against Heywood.

Heywood naturally tried his best to stop it, but the referee's whistle sounded as soon as the two bodies touched each other in the air.

"No. 33 Brandon Heywood fouled for the sixth time, full foul!" The referee yelled at the technical stage. The Mavericks players were stupid, and Heywood was even more surprised with his hands on his head. At this time, the referee sent Haywood off, wouldn't it be equivalent to sentenced the Mavericks to death?

"It's me, it's me who fouled just now!" Nowitzki immediately raised his arm, hoping to back the next foul for Haywood. After all, he did join the blockade just now.

However, the referee did not give any correction results. He picked up the basketball on the ground and motioned everyone to stand on the designated seats required for free throws!

Facing the explanations of the Mavericks players, the referee kept shaking his head. How can the penalties that have been made be changed?

Haywood was lost and walked off the court, and now only the Frenchman Mahinmi can replace him in the fifth position to continue the game. But to be honest, Mahinmi's ability is simply not enough to support a playoff-level fight.

Yiyang gritted his teeth and persisted with hard work... He raised his head and glanced at the big screen at the scene. He persisted for 46 minutes, two minutes before the game was over. He had already seen the hope of attacking, but now he has been sent off a major player!

"What's this? What's this?!" Yiyang muttered to himself, with a strong anger in his tone. "What the **** is this!"

Harden steadily hit the ball and turned the point difference into 3 points. After the loss of Haywood, the Thunder's offense in the interior is even more unscrupulous.

Compared with Haywood, Mahinmi has a slower movement speed and lacks defensive experience. Although Westbrook was blocked by Yiyang, Harden broke through the inside and scored points as easily as getting something from a pocket.

At the last minute ~www.novelmtl.com~ exhausted Yiyang could no longer carry the strong Westbrook into the inside. Both he and Nowitzki tried several outside shots, but the exhausted two couldn't make any more shots.

With half a minute left in the game, the Thunder led by 6 points. The defending champion Dallas Mavericks have been exhausted when both Yiyang and Nowitzki can't move.

Brooks raised his arms high and clenched his fists in the cheers of the mountains and the tsunami. He kept this posture until the referee blew the final whistle.

The young Oklahoma City Thunder finally passed the Dallas Mavericks this year and advanced to the Western Conference Finals!

And what about Yiyang? Standing on the spot with his hips akimbo, he looked at the score on the big screen at the scene. Then he lowered his head, no one could see his expression at the moment.
