One Guard
Chapter 189: The Good Show Begins
The relationship between Yang Yiyang and Wall is not as intense as one might think, but only because the two young men respect each other. If you thought they would show mercy to each other, you'd be wrong.
Before the game started, many Chinese reporters were looking forward to the meeting between Yi Yang and Yi Jianlian. However, although these two guys had the same skin color, they were just warming up for themselves and ignored each other.
Although they have the same nationality, both Yiyang and Yi Jianlian belong to the kind of quiet type. For this type of player, if you want him to say hello to a stranger, it is indeed difficult for them.
Yiyang is not a player trained in the Chinese system, so Yi Jianlian also knows nothing about Yiyang. Under the expectant eyes of the Chinese reporters, the two guys didn't even look at each other.
"Ah Lian's personality is really introverted! As a senior, he didn't take the initiative to say hello to Yiyang." Mu Ran shook his head. Yi Jianlian's personality is actually one of the reasons why he has been unable to achieve results in the NBA. one.
"Yiyang doesn't like talking too much." A colleague next to Mu Ran choked.
"Although Yiyang doesn't like to talk, he handles the relationship with his teammates very well. But what about the Arab League? How many people in the Wizards team do you think really like him?" Looking at Nowitzki and Peja They were all chatting with Yiyang without saying a word, but Yi Jianlian just shot the basket silently by himself, and Mu Ran felt a little sad.
After this season, I don't know if the Wizards will renew Yi Jianlian's contract. Mu Ran could only pray in his heart that this would not be Yi Jianlian's last NBA season.
Of course, except for Chinese fans, no one would care why Yi Jianlian and Yiyang didn't interact with each other. Because there is only one theme for today's competition, Yiyang and Wall!
For the fans, this game has nothing to do with the ranking, and it can even be said that it has nothing to do with the two teams. ? What they want to see is the duel between the two best rookies in this class!
"The recent performance of the Washington Wizards is not very good. They have lost four games in a row, and there is no sign of recovery. But it is worth mentioning that John Wall has played very well in the last few games." The game Before it even started, Kenny Smith and Charles asked these two live treasures to be the commentators for the game, because they also took a fancy to the topicality of Yiyang and Wall.
"Yi's recent performance is also very brilliant. In the last game against the Hawks, everyone was stunned by his four dunks. Of course, the recent selection of Yi to the Western Conference All-Star team was also caused by fans. Some Some people say that Yee does have such strength, but some people think that Yee just took advantage of the Chinese market. What do you think, Kenny? Do you think Yee is really qualified to be selected for the All-Star team?" Barkley put a focus on the question Throw it to your partner.
"Yi also performed very well this season. So far, he has averaged 17.3 points, 9 assists and 2.1 steals per game. You have to admit that it is incredible that a rookie point guard can play such data. And, also The average number of turnovers per game has been controlled at 1.8. For a rookie who holds the ball for a long time, this number of turnovers is perfect. If you need to compare, then I will tell you that even Chris Paul Such a top point guard has an average of 2.2 turnovers per game!" Kenny Smith said, changing his tone.
"Although Wall can average 16 points and 8 assists per game, his team is really not attractive to the fans. Moreover, the number one pick is indeed not as perfect in terms of efficiency and error control. So I think that he is indeed eligible to be selected for the All-Star lineup. But this does not mean that the players who are not selected are not good enough." Kenny Smith's answer was very smooth, he neither denied Yiyang nor Wall . But after learning about Kenny Smith's data, the fans' expectations for this game have greatly increased.
"Wal, a talented guard who became famous in high school, will not allow himself to lose to Yi, nor will he be willing to lose to Wall. The two had played against each other in high school. At that time, Wall won the game without any suspense. But in the summer league, Wall was hit hard. The two young people are holding back their energy, so this game will be very exciting..." Barkley had just finished speaking, and the starting players of both sides also stepped on the ground. into the pitch.
Kenny Smith and "Flying Pig" didn't talk anymore, their eyes were fixed on the basketball. A battle between young people is about to begin!
The referee blew his whistle, and "Boxing King" Tyson won the ball first for the Mavericks.
Kidd passed the ball to Nowitzki immediately after taking the ball beyond the three-point line. Nowitzki's state has always been ups and downs after being injured, but his ball performance has stabilized a lot in recent games. As soon as Carlisle came up, he asked Kidd to give the ball to the German. He also hoped that Dirk would find his hand first.
Facing Rashad Lewis, who had just joined the Wizards for a month, the German didn't show mercy and pushed forward directly.
Although Lewis is tall and long, he is not a pure inside player. He is more suitable to play the three position, not to protect the penalty area.
Nowitzki scored the hook easily, and Lewis, the "Mr. Billionaire", had nothing to do.
"This is the Wizards' defense, and that's why they have such a bad record." Barkley spread his hands, and he didn't have any expectations for the Wizards' defense.
For the Wizards to attack, the fans had expected Wall to take the lead in attacking and create momentum for this game. After all, the All-Star Yiyang is still sitting on the bench right now.
But to the disappointment of the fans, the No. 1 pick did not attack by himself, but passed the ball to Nick Young, the real "ball bully" of the Wizards.
After the "General" Arenas completely sank and Lewis exchanged clubs, Nick Young was truly liberated. Nick Young is the Wizards' leading scorer this season and is naturally the player with the most shots. Even Wall is now only the team's second offensive point after Nick Young.
Although Nick Young has a strong style of play, he dares to hit any ball. But his most deadly point is precisely that he dares to hit any ball.
This round, in the face of Stevenson, a defensive champion, Nick Yang forced a breakthrough layup.
I have to admit that this young defender with long curly hair is very chic. But unfortunately, under Stevenson's strong defense, this layup was not successful.
The Wizards' first offense was so messy, and Carlisle sat back on the bench. This opponent didn't seem to be as strong as imagined.
Minutes into the game, the Wizards' defense and offense were still a mess. Under the leadership of Nowitzki, the Mavericks played a 7-0 offensive in one fell swoop.
Wizards coach Philip Sanders had to call a timeout. This coach who once enjoyed a reputation in the Timberwolves and Pistons did not have a good time after coming to Washington. Joining the Wizards last season, Sanders led the team to a career-low 31% winning percentage.
This guy likes to use guys from prestigious schools, because he believes that players from prestigious schools are more disciplined and have a solid foundation. But what did the Wizards give him? Blatche, a second-round pick who never went to college, Yi Jianlian, a CIC man from China, JaVale McGee from the University of Nevada, and Nick Young from the University of Southern California. This group of people obviously does not meet Sanders' employment standards. But there is only one guy who has always given Sanders high hopes.
"John!" Sanders didn't want the team to give up resistance from the first quarter. He yelled Wall's name and picked up his tactical board. "Next, I want you to handle the ball yourself!"
Sanders' words undoubtedly made Nick Young gasp. This means that the time for him to shoot unscrupulously is over.
After returning from the timeout, Carlisle immediately made personnel adjustments. Saunders could tell from the cheers from the Mavericks fans that Carlisle had brought his All-Star rookie to the field!
Although Yiyang and Wall are present at the same time, but before Kidd goes down to rest, Yiyang is playing in the second position and cannot directly confront Wall. But even so, the appetite of the fans has been lifted.
The Wizards reorganized their offense, and Nick Yang looked at Yiyang with disdain. Just this rookie who is as skinny as a bamboo pole can be selected as an All-Star? Skin color, yes, it must be because his skin color is enough to attract attention!
Not reconciled to Nick. Young intends to beat the All-Star rookie to prove himself, but when he raised his hand, Wall did not pass the ball.
Sanders said, now it's up to Wall to control the offense. Wall has the right not to feed Nick. Young, it is clear that the Wizards No. 1 is not used to all this.
"Damn it!" There was no other way, Nick Young had to move around to find a space. Yiyang followed the guy in front of him every step of the way. Under Yiyang's close contact, Nick Yang quickly lost his patience and simply stood still in the left corner.
"Stinky boy!" Sanders cursed softly off the court, otherwise why would he like players who graduated from prestigious schools. Look at Nick Youngnard, if he went to a good college, he would play like this?
Wall ignored Nick Young, he saw the timing and reached out to call Blatche to pick and roll for him, and then directly broke through!
Kidd just got rid of the pick-and-roll, but Wall has already thrown the old Kidd far away. Kidd was stunned by the speed of the champion, he was even faster than Yiyang!
After breaking through Kidd, facing Nowitzki's supplementary defense, Wall did not forcefully break into the penalty area, but suddenly stopped and shot a jumper.
The basketball lightly passed over the German's fingertips and flew towards the basket with Wall's expectant eyes.
Nick Young didn't have any intention of rushing to grab the rebound, which also allowed Yiyang to run straight to the frontcourt without getting stuck, ready to sneak attack.
However, just as Yiyang was about to start, the pleasant voice jumped into the ears of the No. 1 defender.
"Swipe." The Nets rolled slightly, and Wall made a mid-range shot!
"Good shot, the Wizards finally broke their scoring drought! John Wall! He became the first to attack today. It seems that the champion is not going to be humble anymore, and how will he respond to Wall's progress? Where's the ball!?"
Yiyang looked up at the score on the big screen. It was 2 to 7, and the Wizards were still 5 points behind.
This guy ran towards the frontcourt expressionlessly, as if he didn't care about Wall's goal. But Mu Ran became excited, the balance between the two had been broken by Wall's goal, and Yiyang had to respond if he wanted to keep the balance in balance!
Next, the good show is about to officially kick off!
