NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

The Warriors are in a turbulent period. Yue Yi has been playing as a substitute, with less playing time and limited shots. As expected, Durant won the Western Conference Rookie of the Week last week. There is no way to do this. Durant's starting point is much higher than Yue Yi

's. The Eastern Conference Rookie of the Week was won by Yi Di, who is also Chinese.

His starting point is not low. The sixth pick of this season has been a starting power forward from the beginning. The team's training and position for him are much better than Yue Yi.

However, after this turmoil in the team, Yue Yi feels that his future has become significantly wider.

Out of respect for All-Star guard Kidd, the entire Warriors team and the management led by Jack went to the airport to welcome Kidd.

Warriors media officer Penny was facing the camera, telling reporters about the new members of the team and the new future plans.

After the Noah family took over the Warriors, Jack took the position of general manager, and his own sister Penny was pulled by him to serve as the team's media officer.

Penny also sought Yue Yi's opinion, and Yue Yi expressed strong support.

Of course I have to support it.

Penny's previous job as a flight attendant was so free that she put all her thoughts on Yue Yi. Although she loved him deeply, Yue Yi was very tired.

Now Jack asked Penny to serve as the team's press officer, which was a great help to Yue Yi.

In addition, Penny's image and temperament were outstanding enough. Having her face the camera could enhance the image of the Warriors. Penny herself was not a vase. She graduated from the prestigious Columbia University.

Yue Yi praised the general manager for his wise decision.

After receiving the salary, Yue Yi moved out of the staff dormitory with Penny and rented a boutique apartment near the Oracle Arena for a monthly rent of 3,000 US dollars.

Due to the geographical advantage, some Warriors staff members and several teammates with minimum salary also lived in this apartment.

At about five o'clock in the evening, Kidd's plane arrived, and Jack led people to greet him.

This was the first time Yue Yi saw Kidd up close. The first impression was that he was very elegant and wise. Among NBA players, Kidd was undoubtedly a handsome guy.

This guy has been involved in many romantic affairs, but now it is his family that is accompanying him off the plane.

Kidd was a little surprised to see the Warriors put on such a show. They gave him too much face.

Kidd shook hands with his new colleagues on the Warriors one by one, and gave warm hugs to those he was familiar with.

When it came to Yue Yi, Kidd shook hands in a friendly manner as usual, and then added:"My young teammate, you shoot very accurately. I have studied your technical characteristics. As long as you run out of a good position, my ball will be in your hands immediately. You will definitely do better than Davis."

Yue Yi smiled and said,"Mr. Kidd, then I will give you assists one after another, so that you will have the opportunity to challenge Mr. Stockton, the historical assist king."

"Hahaha, OK, my young partner, let's hug for our old and young backcourt partners."

Kidd took the initiative to open his arms and hugged Yue Yi.

A good point guard can effectively organize the team's offense and make teammates play more easily.

A historical point guard can often activate the offensive ability of teammates and make them reach a higher level.

Jason Kidd, Steve Nash, Chris Paul, all of them are the epitome of this.

On November 19, before the game, the Warriors held a press conference for new players. Kidd made his official debut. He said that the Warriors have a lot of talent on the team. He personally likes the Warriors' style of play and believes that he can integrate well into the team system. He will lead the team forward.

This was originally a polite remark, but after a game, the polite remark didn't seem so polite anymore, and it seemed like he was doing what he said. At the Oracle Arena, the Warriors faced the challenging Raptors.

Yue Yi and new player Kidd served as the starting backcourt players.

With a master-level point guard on the court, the Warriors' offense was very rhythmic. When they were fast, they were like a whirlwind, and when they slowed down, they were in good order. After only one practice with his new teammates, he finally got his first start. Kidd had already sorted out the team's offense this afternoon.

On the defensive end, Kidd also did very well. He rarely lost his position and could keenly predict the opponent's passing route. If the opponent's point guard dribbled too much in front of him, the risk of being intercepted by him would be infinitely greater.

This greatly improved the defensive deterrence of the Warriors' perimeter.

Kidd also has an advantage. He is very good at assisting and double-teaming. He often suddenly appears next to the opponent's ball handler and double-teams the opponent with his own defenders, forcing him to pass the ball hastily or simply make a mistake.

These small details on the court that are easily overlooked by fans only became very useful after Yue Yi and Kidd became teammates.

95:114.

The Warriors welcomed Kidd with a big win.

Kidd scored 13 points, 8 rebounds and 13 assists in his Warriors debut, a near triple-double.

Warriors center Biedrins scored 21+11.

Yue Yi made 8 of 12 shots and scored 18 points.

After these games, Yue Yi felt intuitively that Kidd was better than the bearded man in everything except scoring.

Especially in terms of passing, as long as he ran out of space, Kidd's ball arrived faster than the bearded man, and he was more comfortable to receive it.

This detail is very critical. If the ball is received comfortably, you can shoot immediately. If it is not comfortable, the attack gesture must be adjusted in the process, which not only affects the shooting speed, but also affects the shooting hit rate. On

November 21, the Warriors will continue to play at home against the Knicks.

Before the arrival of"Melo" Anthony, the Knicks were in the position of a bottom-ranked team for a long time. Many big contracts were given out, but they often became suckers and bad contracts.

97:108, another victory.

Biedrins scored 20+10 again, and there was a vague trend of becoming a dual core with Kidd.

This is not surprising. With a master-level point guard, the inside line can often eat cakes to their heart's content, after all, the center is the closest position to the basket.

What's more, Biedrins himself has a certain ability to attack independently.

Kidd's assists were also easily in double digits.

Yue Yi scored 17 points in this game, 7 of 13 shots, and his hit rate dropped.

After being mentioned in the starting lineup, he had more playing time, and there was Kidd as a partner, so the data should have been greatly improved.

But this is the NBA, where it is not easy to cut melons and vegetables.

After entering the starting lineup, the attention has also increased relatively. The opponent team began to notice the yellow-skinned player with accurate shooting in the Warriors, and the defense against Yue Yi has also improved. Besides, after Yue Yi became the starting player himself, the opponent on the court also became a starting player, and the strength of the opposing players has become relatively stronger.

But this does not prevent Yue Yi from becoming the second attacking point with the second highest average score per game in the team.

Kidd doesn't take many shots, and he won't take them easily.

Captain Jackson's characteristic is that he is better at defense than offense.

Harrington's three-pointers are sometimes effective and sometimes ineffective, and his scoring average is 14.5 points per game.

On the offensive end, Yue Yi's personal scoring data is second only to Biedrins.

Of course, at present, only his scoring data is second in the team. In terms of comprehensive ability and actual role, he is still the weakest of the starting five.

But so what? Scoring is the most critical link on the court. The efforts of all positions are ultimately for scoring.
