One Guard - Chapter 362
Chapter 367 : Perfect offense
A genius remembers the site address in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Back to back to back, this word is very convoluted when you say it with your mouth, and it is not easy for players to actually implement it.
Twenty-four hours ago, Yiyang also received the worship of thousands of Mavericks fans in the U.S. Route Center Arena. Now, he was in the target center of Minnesota, enduring boos from the stands.
Luke Ridnour, the veteran point guard who entered the league in 2003 is nervously pressing his legs to warm up, and now both sides have stood up in the designated positions, and the battle is about to start.
Although this is the ninth NBA season of Ridnour’s career, he still has lingering fears about the sophomore wearing the Mavericks No. 1 jersey. In the last two games, Yiyang has killed Westbrook and Calderon in succession, and the state is very hot. Ridnour didn’t expect to defeat Yiyang, he just didn’t want to even have room to fight back.
Over there, Ridnour is nervous about the next matchup. And Yiyang’s gaze fell off the court and fell on the bench for the Timberwolves.
A delicate-looking young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes attracted Yiyang’s attention. This guy is no one else, it was the fifth show in 2009, and this year the Spanish “golden boy” Riki Rubio officially landed in the NBA!
Compared with the elderly Ridnour, Yiyang cares more about Rubio’s performance on the bench. Yiyang watched a lot of game videos of that guy. On the court, he was indeed an excellent commander. But if you want to lead the team to win the game, you are still a little tender!
The referee blew his whistle, he had already experienced three consecutive defeats and desperately needed a victory to prove that his Timberwolves took the lead in winning the ball.
“At the beginning of the game, Ridnour took possession of the ball and advanced. Facing the exhausted Mavericks, can the Timberwolves win their first win of the season?” Even Mike Brin sitting in the stands can see that today, the Mavericks’ players are spirited. The state is not very good.
The weather in Minnesota is so bad that not everyone can adapt to the winter here. What’s more, this is the second consecutive back-to-back game for the Mavericks. Even a continuous long-distance attack is exhausting enough for the players. What’s more, they must carry out high-intensity training and competition as usual.
Ridnour took control of the ball for a while after halftime, and directly slinged the “cannonball” to Love.
As another fifth rookie selected by the Timberwolves in 2008, Love was not favored when he first entered the league. But every season, the data of this all-around power forward will double. Last season, the 22-year-old Love surrendered a double-double record averaging 20 points and 15 rebounds per game. He is now the well-deserved core of the Timberwolves.
After receiving the basketball, Love did not directly force the recoil. When Love first started playing basketball, he played as a guard, so he has a soft touch that most inside players don’t have.
Seeing the young white forward turned around to prepare for a jumper, Nowitzki immediately sealed it up, not intending to leave any gap for Love.
However, Love did not make a direct shot today. Seeing Nowitzki’s center of gravity was swayed by himself, Love sank his shoulders and accelerated past Dirk.
Nowitzki’s exhausted body and mind made him drag his slow legs to try to keep up, but all was to no avail. Nowitzki was too slow today, and Love made the breakthrough easily.
After breaking through to the basket, Love scored a single-handed dunk in the face of the undefended basket, helping the Timberwolves to open the record. Don’t look at this white forward’s name “love” is very gentle, but on the basketball court, he is a bloodthirsty wolf.
“The Mavericks’ recent schedule is too dense. Obviously, they seem to be overwhelmed on the court. Although the players’ physical reserves at the beginning of the season are still very abundant, it is indeed very difficult to play back-to-back away games.”
Mike Brin can see that Nowitzki’s defense just now is not his true level. But your opponent will not show mercy to you just because you just finished a game yesterday. For the Mavericks, whose lineup is no longer young, physical fitness is a gulf they have to cross today.
Love just scored a goal on the Mavericks side, and Nowitzki took advantage of Marion’s pick and roll to get a shot from beyond the three-point line. Yiyang’s pass was naturally very timely, and Yiyang quickly delivered the basketball as soon as the vacancy was formed.
However, Nowitzki’s open shots were surprisingly short, just rubbing to the front of the basket, and almost missed three shots.
In the Brookley training camp this summer, Yiyang specially conducted physical training. Because Brookley knows that physical fitness is also an important indicator that affects shooting percentage. Now, Nowitzki almost exhausted his energy right after the start, and it was not enough to support him to make every shot.
Love accepted the defensive rebound, and then led the team to the past. Ridnour repeated his old tricks, hoisting the basketball to Love.
I originally thought that everything would continue smoothly, but this time, when Love was holding the ball and preparing to attack, Yiyang doubled up!
“Also, he caught it directly! God, it was also a back-to-back-to-back game. Compared with other people, it seemed to be completely unaffected! His defense was too active, and Love was in trouble!”
Faced with Yiyang’s double-teaming, Love now let alone attacking the frame, he even struggles to hold the ball.
The white forward held the basketball high above his head, because as long as he guarded the ball, he was in danger of being intercepted by Yiyang.
Love used to play as a guard, not only allows him to practice a precise shot, but also allows him to have excellent passing ability that other insiders do not have.
He played it high, and then returned the ball to Ridnour again.
In fact, this is exactly what Yiyang expected. The reason why he forced Love to pass the ball is because the lob pass usually flies slowly, and Yiyang has time to turn over and chase. And there is one more thing, the lob pass is suitable for small people to pass to big people, but not necessarily suitable for big people to pass to small people.
Seeing Love passed the ball, Yiyang immediately pounced on Ridnour again. Ridnour is 1.88 meters tall and his wingspan is not outstanding. In terms of physical conditions, he is far from Yiyang.
Yiyang leaped up in the middle of the run, straightened his long arms, and pocketed the lob pass that Love gave Ridnour. And Ridnour, who is not dominant in height, wingspan and jumping,
“A steal, this is the ball made by enthusiasm!” Mike Brin said as he hammered the “innocent” commentary, he knew that next, there was a good show!
Yiyang intercepted Love’s pass, and then began to run wild as soon as he turned around! Ridnour wanted to make a foul to prevent Yiyang from the fast break, but he grabbed hard, but only caught a ball of air. Yiyang flashed past Ridnour’s eyes, and didn’t even leave the chance of a foul to the opponent!
Seeing this, Rubio sitting on the bench was so surprised that his round eyes widened. This kind of speed, “Golden Boy” has never seen it before!
A flash of lightning struck the dark hardwood floor in the center of the target, leaving no trace. Yiyang “suddenly” appeared on the other side of the court, grabbing the basketball, just like grabbing the head of the Timberwolves and pushing it into the frame.
“Hey! Violent dunk! Have you seen it? Yi’s jumping height is simply breathtaking.” Before Mike Brin recovered from the shock of Yiyang’s quick steal, the Chinese defender once again made him sharp. call.
No wonder even that mean guy Charles Barkley became a fan of Yiyang. Who wouldn’t like such a guy?
Yiyang used a quick-break dunk after a steal to remind the Minnesota Timberwolves that had lost three straight. Even if we are playing continuously, it is not so easy to deal with!
This dunk can be said to fully stimulate the potential of the Mavericks players. After that, the Mavericks’ defense was very tight. Apart from Love, the entire Timberwolves could not find a second stable scoring point.
Michael Beasley, once known as the nation’s number one high school student, did not find the feeling of dominating the court after coming to the Timberwolves. Under Marion’s tight defense, most of Beasley’s shooting options caused Mike Brin to shake his head again and again.
Wesley Johnson, a swingman who used to play back and forth with Yiyang on the college basketball court, has not played since entering the NBA. The Timberwolves had high hopes for Johnson at the beginning However, now, he still can only hand over data in single-digit points per game. Today, in the face of the experienced Carter, Johnson is still doing nothing.
On the other hand, the Mavericks, under the leadership of Yiyang, the players played well on the offensive end.
Nowitzki, who was defended by Love around the front, received a precise pass from Yiyang and directly dunked the ball. Marion flicked a shot from outside the three-point line to fly Beasley, hitting the inside and causing a foul and two free throws. Two in.
Carter slipped away from Wesley Johnson, and Yiyang didn’t watch the pass, assisting Carter with two-handed dunks, allowing “ufo” to lift off again.
The target center, which was still happily just now, became quiet in an instant. Even playing back-to-back, the Mavericks seem to be a bit stronger.
At this time, the Timberwolves fans looked to the team’s bench. There, Rubio, who was staring at the stadium with his big eyes, became the “savior” expected by Timberwolves fans.
Timberwolves coach Adelman also saw the team’s weakness on the offensive end. When Nowitzki successfully scored a goal on Love with the Golden Rooster, the score on the court had become 10 Than 2. The Timberwolves started off badly, and Yiyang’s organization made the Mavericks offense almost perfect.
You have an organization master, and we have it too!
“Pause, pause!” Adelman, who was once familiar with Chinese fans for coaching Yao Ming, shouted at the referee and called the game to stop.
After that, the white-haired coach walked up to the Spaniard with thick eyebrows and patted him on the shoulder.
“Ricky, the moment you desire has arrived!”
Rubio suddenly “bounced” from his seat, and then quickly took off his training suit.
