One Guard

Chapter 192: The Last Strike

The tit-for-tat performances of Yiyang and Wall keep the game in a very fierce state, but the gap in strength between the two teams cannot be made up for by Wall, a rookie.

In addition to Yiyang, the Mavericks, Dirk Nowitzki, Terry and others are also very stable offensive points. In addition to Wall on the Wizards side, the person with the highest shooting percentage today is actually Yi Jianlian.

The Wizards are now at the bottom of the league, not because they are unlucky, but because they are really weak. Lewis, the "Mr. Billionaire", is already embarrassing to reuse, and the efficiency of Nick Young, the team's scoring leader, is even more outrageously low. Yi Jianlian's performance today is not bad, but he is still not the key to the team's victory or defeat. The highlight of the entire Wizards team is only Wall!

However, under the powerful offensive of the Mavericks, Wall's strength alone is like a mantis arm, insignificant. When the game progressed to the fourth quarter, the Mavericks had expanded the point difference to 10 points. And most importantly, the Wizards seem to have nothing to do about it!

"Ten points behind Charles, the Mavericks seem to have firmly controlled the situation from the beginning of the game. Now, the suspense of the game is not much, I just want Wall and Yi to return to the court soon." Kenny Smith The complaint is the voice of all the fans now. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the coaches of both sides asked Yiyang and Wall to rest first. But replacing these two young guards is equivalent to replacing the only highlight of the game.

Perhaps Nowitzki's excellent performance is commendable, and perhaps the Croatian's debut in the new club really made the fans shine, but he is not the protagonist after all.

The fourth quarter lasted more than five minutes, and the difference between the two sides remained at 10 points. The Wizards didn't get a breakthrough, and the Mavericks didn't crash.

Naturally, Sanders did not give up the game, but after allowing Nick Young to let go of his hands and feet to attack, he regretted this decision a bit.

Indeed, Nick Young's score has risen again, so far he has scored 20 points, which is already a good number. What about the hit rate? 0%, just 0%. And if you continue to let this guy serve as the main attacker, Sanders is very "confident", and this number will decline.

Shaking his head, Sanders walked up to Wall. Even if he's just a rookie, even if his scoring numbers aren't as good as Nick Young's. But now the only person Sanders can count on is him.

On the field, Nick Young's breakthrough caused a defensive foul by Chandler. The Wizards No. 1 stood at the free throw line, and the Mavericks No. 1 took off their training clothes and stood next to the technical table. The one who came face to face with Yiyang was No. 2 Wall of the Wizards.

"It's been the last few minutes buddy, the game hasn't been decided yet!" Wall stared at the court, but his mouth was talking to Yiyang.

As soon as the No. 1 pick finished speaking, Nick Young's first free throw also fell into the net. The game entered the dead ball stage, and two young defenders came on the field at the same time. This scene ignited the lifeless American Airlines Center arena again!

"He also played at the same time as Wall. Coach Carlisle hopes to maintain the advantage until the end. And Sanders' goal is also very clear. He hopes that Wall can lead the team to a magical reversal in the last 7 minutes!"

"The 10-point difference is not irreversible, and 7 minutes is still plenty of time. Don't yawn Charles, this game will become exciting again!"

On the TV, the commentators are introducing to the fans how young Yiyang and Wall are, how much potential they have, what feats they have achieved among players of the same grade...and so on. It seems that without these two guys playing, the commentators don't know what to say.

Carlisle just wanted to take advantage of the momentum of his team before it disappeared, and make persistent efforts to continue to open the score. For a team like the Wizards, if you don't beat them to death, they will jump up and bite you back.

The game continued, and everyone was worried about whether the young Wall could withstand the pressure and play well against the wind. Because now if he collapses, then the entire Wizards also collapses.

But when Wall stood calmly and calmly in front of Yiyang, people realized that this guy is simply a natural leader! He and Yiyang are very similar in many ways, and one of the similarities is that they don't panic at critical moments.

Yiyang had to admit that Wall's defense put a lot of pressure on him. When Wall stretched out his long arm to steal, Yiyang had to take a step back to ensure the safety of the basketball. That guy's defensive range is too big, and he also has a strong body that Yiyang doesn't have.

But Wall is still just a rookie. In terms of experience, this guy still lacks.

This time, Yiyang hit the ball to Terry, and Terry lobbed the ball to Nowitzki.

The German did not repeat his ups and downs today, he was very stable on the offensive end. If it weren't for Sanders' double-team tactics, the German might have scored another 0+ score today.

Nowitzki is holding the ball in the middle distance, so according to the tactics, the Wizards did not double-team him. Sanders' arrangement is to double-team only near the penalty area. So Nowitzki pushed two steps in with his back, looking like he was going to attack by himself!

Even Wall thought so, so when Yiyang suddenly disappeared in front of him with a reverse run, the No. 1 champion unexpectedly reacted a little too late.

Yiyang threw Wall away and went to the middle distance position on the right, and Nowitzki, who pushed forward with his back, also passed the ball immediately.

Yiyang raised the ball and was about to shoot. This guy's jump shots from the mid-range position are already very lethal. So Wall didn't hold back, and tried his best to take off and block.

Just as the number one scholar was flying, Yiyang's feet stuck to the ground. There is no doubt that Wall was cheated.

Break through, take off, layup. Afterwards, Yiyang's series of movements were completed smoothly. Blatche, a second-round pick center who is more offensive than defensive, has no time to defend a guard with such a fast speed.

In this round of confrontation, Yiyang won. But this is just a microcosm of the matchup between the two in the whole game. Next, Wall will definitely fight back.

Sure enough, in the next round, Wall tried to pass the ball but suddenly broke through at a high speed, fooling Yiyang.

In fact, Yiyang's reaction is not slow anymore, but Wall's acceleration ability is terrifying, as long as he is a little dazed, he will be wiped out.

Facing Nowitzki's supplementary defense, Wall stretched his long arms and scored a layup. Sure enough, the No. 1 pick returned a goal, and the two were still tied!

In the 7th minute of the fourth quarter, Yiyang assisted Terry with a back pass and hit a three-pointer. But under the observation of the referee, Terry was sentenced to stepping on the line and only counted two points.

Just ten seconds later, Wall made a long pass from outside the three-point line to assist Blatche for an alley-oop dunk. Although they didn't score, both Yiyang and Wall were behind the scenes. The two tied again, and they didn't even give up assists.

The performances of the two defenders are still equal, and the score of the two teams is still maintained at around 10 points.

In this way, the game went to the last two minutes. It seems that the Wizards have no chance of reversal. But Yiyang and Wall still fought inextricably.

This time, it was the Wizards' offense. Wall observed the halftime situation. Except for Nick Young who was still asking for the ball, the other teammates really didn't have much chance.

Yi Jianlian couldn't get out of the position defended by Nowitzki, and Brac couldn't get out of the position under the confrontation with Chandler. As for Booker, on the offensive end, don't expect that guy to make a difference.

There is no way, Wall can't keep holding the ball and Yiyang so exhausted. In desperation, Wall had to hand the ball to Nick Young.

Nick Yang had just received the basketball, but the fans in the American Airlines Center Arena booed violently. There is no doubt that this guy is the "culprit" who interfered with the duel between Yiyang and Wall today.

But Nick Young didn't care about that, he planned to use his height advantage to eat Terry.

However, how could Terry's defense be torn apart so easily. His follow-up defense kept Nick Young from getting even the slightest chance, but Nick Young preferred to shoot those difficult shots.

So, the picture of Nick Young making a jumper against the defense reappeared.

But this time, Yi Jianlian made a contribution. He took the initiative to shake off Nowitzki, rushed to the inside first, and won an offensive basketball for the Wizards!

After getting the ball, Yi Jianlian was double-teamed by Nowitzki and Chandler. After all, he is under the basket now and is the biggest threat.

Yi Jianlian seems to no longer have the confidence to score in the NBA's restricted area. He didn't try to attack the basket under the basket, but rushed the ball to let Wall regain the ball.

Wall rushed when he received the ball, because he saw that Yiyang's defensive position hadn't been fully established yet. After all, no one could have imagined that the Wizards, who were at a disadvantage inside this game, would get a second chance to attack.

Wall finally broke through smoothly, but the inside line was already overcrowded. He couldn't make a layup, so he had to stop and shoot a jumper!

Just when Wall was about to make a move, his eyes suddenly went dark! Yiyang catches up in time and interferes with Wall's shot, Wall is taken aback. After playing in the NBA for half a season, there are almost no guards who can catch up after breaking through at full speed. However, Yiyang did it!

"Speed ​​duel!" Barkley's yelling is the best interpretation of this offense and defense.

Yiyang's sudden interference caused Wall, whose shooting was not stable enough, to waste the opportunity that Yi Jianlian finally managed to fight for.

This time, Chandler, who was stuck in a good position, did not make another mistake and firmly protected the rebound.

Yiyang raised his hand to ask for the ball, but Chandler dared not slack off. This time, Yiyang pushed forward at full speed as soon as he received the ball, and he didn't slowly grind the ground with Wal.

Yiyang quickly passed through the crowd with the ball, and Wall followed closely behind with disbelief. Two young guards staged an NBA version of Fast and Furious.

Yiyang quickly soared beyond the three-point line on the right, seemingly slowing down the pace, as if waiting for his teammates to get in position.

But if he had to wait for his teammates, Yiyang would not be so fast at the beginning. After Yiyang paused for a moment, he started to speed up immediately. This sudden breakthrough made Wall retreat quickly.

But just as Wall retreated, Yiyang, who was halfway through the breakthrough, suddenly stopped suddenly, took a step back and returned to outside the three-point line.

Step-back jump shot, this is Yiyang's favorite shooting rhythm, even if it is outside the three-point line! Seeing Yiyang step back, Wall jumped straight away. But his center of gravity changed rapidly, his feet did not stabilize, and he was tripped and fell to the ground!

"Yeah, he knocked Wall down!" Barkley stood up straight away, his thick lips growing big.

Wall fell to the ground, Yiyang made a shot, and all the fans of the Mavericks raised their arms and stood up, and then—"Flash!"

Three points hit!

“hat a great shoot!!!”

The basketball hit the net fiercely, and thunderous applause and cheers rang out from the auditorium in the American Airlines Center arena. ?? Yiyang clenched his fists and waved to the sky, roaring!

??At his feet, lay the champion who was defeated by him with a sword, John Wall...?
