One Guard
Chapter 100: Prove My 1st
When Turner hit Yiyang with his back, because Yiyang was retreating steadily, Turner also exerted more force. He himself really wanted to defeat Yiyang to prove himself, and his impatience made Turner just want to push forward with all his strength.
Yiyang knew that if he took Turner hard, he would be the one who would suffer in the end. After all, Turner does have an advantage in height, and Yiyang is also at a disadvantage in strength. If Turner turns over and shoots a jumper close to the basket, Yiyang is really hard to defend.
Just when Yiyang was at a loss, he suddenly remembered a trick Terry once taught him. So, when Turner was about to confront Yiyang for the third time. Yiyang didn't carry it hard, but took a step back.
In this way, Turner made a gap, and then he fell directly to the ground with an unstable center of gravity. So, there is everything that just happened.
"It's also very smart! He actually used the way of retreating to deal with Turner's post-up singles. God, I didn't expect a rookie who played less than ten games in the NBA to be so treacherous." Kenny Smith Laughing loudly on the commentary stage, Yiyang's way of solving the problem is really unexpected.
Of course, Yiyang, a rookie, couldn't think of using retreat to deal with Turner. If he wants to thank Yiyang, he should thank Yiyang for having a big brother who "doesn't do his job properly".
"Hahaha, you kid, learn and use." Terry happily yelled at Yiyang on the bench. Just like Kidd said, Yiyang's learning ability is really terrifying. You only need to teach him a lot of things once, and he can flexibly use them in actual combat.
The players on the Mavericks were all smiling, but the 76ers couldn't smile much. When Nowitzki hit the iron continuously in the second quarter, the 76ers thought their chance had come. But Yiyang's dunk made these guys wake up like a dream. Especially Turner, who had suffered so much humiliation, already knew that facing off against Yiyang was definitely not a good job!
When Holiday again took possession of the ball and approached the basket guarded by the Mavericks, Turner was no longer as aggressive as before. He must be patient enough to find a suitable space before he can beat this annoying No. 1 in front of him.
Under Kidd's blocking, Holiday's ball was even more difficult. Although his physical fitness is not as good as Yiyang's, Kidd's experience and sophistication on the defensive end are unmatched by Yiyang.
The 76ers' offense seemed to be at a standstill, and 24 seconds passed, and they still failed to find any good opportunities.
At the last moment, Iguodala forced two points against Marion's interference. But it is a pity that the "little AI" did not become the one who ended the attack. His shot knocked out, and 76ers coach Doug Collins held his forehead in disappointment. But at this moment, a figure wearing the red away jersey of the 76ers leaped high and grabbed an offensive rebound!
"Evan Turner! His aggressive fighting has finally paid off!" Kenny Smith pointed at the court and exclaimed. No one thought that the 76ers would have a second chance to attack!
Yiyang was indeed a little careless, and didn't block Turner in advance, allowing Turner to get the chance to grab the rebound.
Turner has been aggrieved for so long, and finally got a gap to respond to the ball. So the No. 2 pick grabbed the rebound and landed without hesitation. He immediately took off for the second time and put the ball into the basket.
Tyson Chandler threw himself towards Turner like a big net, but since there was a basket between the "Champion" and Turner, Chandler would actually be rather awkward to complete the block.
Turner will shoot the basketball, he no longer has to worry about so many causes and effects. Scoring a goal on Yiyang's head was Evan Turner's only thought at the moment.
"Boxing champion" Tyson's position is indeed not conducive to the defense of this ball, but Turner seems to have forgotten. The Dallas One standing behind him is also a guy with a terrifying jump height! In the NCAA, Yiyang has staged Wade-style chasing after himself more than once!
The basketball thrown by Turner has just risen to the position of the backboard,
A big hand suddenly appeared from Turner's head. That hand slaps the basketball toward the backboard, and the ball bounces back hard. Turner broke out in a cold sweat, could it be...
"Take a big risk! God! Is Yi really a point guard!? His blocking looks like a violent center! Look at Evan's expression, poor Evan, he and Yi Yang's matchup is simply a nightmare! Yizhi's cover of the sky may have completely defeated the confidence of the second place!"
Turner's heart was beating wildly, and he couldn't believe what had just happened. Yiyang actually made a beautiful block against himself standing under the basket.
Yeah, that was a really nice block shot. As for himself, he became the background board of this cover.
"Hey." Doug Collins shook his head. Maybe it's too early for Turner to take up the heavy responsibility. He is not as calm as the opponent's No. 1. This guy's mind has been occupied by media hype.
Turner ran with all his strength, hoping to catch up with Yiyang who was running wildly with the ball. Even bringing this guy to the ground with a foul can give Turner some comfort.
But the reality is often cruel. Turner straightened his arm, but he couldn't catch anything. After Yiyang broke into the three-second zone, he made a layup with his right hand and then watched for two points. He looked so relaxed and freehand.
And what about myself? Mistakes, iron strikes, embarrassment... Turner didn't even dare to think about his performance just now, because it was almost humiliating to him.
After Yiyang scored this goal, the Mavericks opened the score again. Collins had to call a timeout and Evan Turner, also replaced by Argentine striker Andres Nocioni.
After the game restarted, the on-site photographer deliberately gave the camera to Turner on the bench. This young man seemed to have lost his former vitality. He covered his head with a towel and lowered his head. The white towel with the Gatorade LOGO completely covered Turner's face, and no one knew what this young man's expression was.
But guess, it's not just a smile.
On the basketball court, Yiyang's performance is still wonderful. Nowitzki's bad touch is made up for by Yiyang's fiery state. With Kidd around, Yiyang can easily get all kinds of vacant opportunities.
The better Yiyang performed, the deeper Turner's shots were buried off the field.
By the end of the half, Yiyang had scored 12 points and 7 assists. And Evan Turner scored 5 points on 2 of 6 shots. The 76ers also fell behind temporarily with a score difference of 48 to 58.
In the second half of the game, Turner's poor state seemed to be "infected" to Iguodala. Iguodala finally began to put away his "blue-collar heart" and carry the banner of offense. But this Philadelphia No. 9's repeated strikes made the 76ers farther and farther away from victory.
Nowitzki's touch has not recovered, but at least today, they have Yiyang. Iguodala's touch has not recovered, and the 76ers will never have a second person to stand up.
After that, Turner was put on the field again. He was indeed no longer impatient, but his confidence had been completely destroyed by Yiyang, but he didn't even try to make a move.
When Yiyang scored a career-high 23 points on a pullup layup to avoid Hawes' block, Coach Collins called a timeout.
The purpose of his suspension this time is not to limit Yiyang, but to replace all the main players. Race, enter garbage time!
At this time, there is only one and a half minutes left before the end of the game. The 76ers are 18 points behind the Mavericks.
Iguodala made 5 of 13 shots, 38 percent from the field. Holiday made 5 of 12 shots and made 41% of his shots. Brand made 3 of 8 shots and Turner made 2 of 6 shots... These shocking statistics can already explain why the 76ers are so far behind.
After the game, Yiyang, who scored 23 points, 12 assists, 3 steals and 5 rebounds with a shooting percentage of 52%, did not bow his head and walk back to the player tunnel as usual, but rushed to the press area and raised his arms, then slammed Hammered his chest!
Didn't you question my ranking before the game? Now, I prove everything! And Turner, who was eager to use this game to prove himself, estimated that next time, the ranking will be even lower...
Don't forget, guys from the Woodlands, you pay your debts!
