One Guard

The entire stadium seems to be shaking at the moment. If you just listen to the sound, you must feel that the atmosphere at the scene is as frantic as a regular NBA game scene.

However, this is only a small venue that can only accommodate more than a thousand people. The guys playing in the arena are either fringe guys or rookies who haven't played any professional games.

But it was this group of guys that made more than a thousand people who came to watch the game feel that the tickets worth tens of dollars were really worth it! Even the $500 price tag for the first row is worth it. They used an unbelievable price to see Wall and Yiyang duel like a superstar!

"Four points! I also got a chance to play four points! God, the scoring situation before this No. 3 show was not ideal. But after returning to the court, he actually scored 7 points in a row. If this penalty Now, then the 8-point advantage that the Wizards managed to build up will disappear!" The commentator of CBS TV shouted frantically, and the ratings of this summer league live broadcast, which had not received much attention before, began to slowly rise.

McGee looked at the big screen at a loss, he still hadn't figured out how Yiyang stopped suddenly. The No. 1 guard seemed to have no inertia in his body, he started when he talked, and stopped when he said it. If it wasn't for being cheated, McGee wouldn't have fouled.

But it's useless for McGee to think about anything now, Yiyang has already walked to the free throw line amidst the screams of the fans. People can even be heard at the scene, and a few scattered people also shouted the three letters "MVP".

"Did you see, buddy, this kid is a born star!" Terry looked at the fans around him who were shaking their fists for Yiyang. Is this the strength of this year's MOP?

Afterwards, Yiyang, who stood on the free throw line, successfully made a basketball and hit a four-pointer! When his free throw ended, the 12-minute game between the two sides in the first quarter also came to an end.

The players walked back to the bench, in this small arena without live big screens, cheerleaders and mascots. The heat of the competition has no tendency to decline.

The Chinese fans who watched the game live on Sina live cheered, even though it was only the summer league. But on this stage where there are extremely few Chinese people, Yiyang's performance undoubtedly made everyone full of expectations for this guy who "appeared out of thin air".

"You played well, too! After the second quarter starts, you should rest first. Jeremy, I want you to return to the first position and carry the banner of offense! Perform well, kid!" Terry Stowe Ci was very satisfied with Yiyang's performance, he never thought that Yiyang could actually bring the situation back.

On the other hand, John Wall was a little depressed. He originally thought that he would win again without any risk today, but unexpectedly, Yiyang's sudden exertion made him, the number one champion, a bit eclipsed.

The only thing these two young people think about now is to completely defeat each other on the basketball court!

After the start of the second quarter, both Yiyang and Wall sat on the bench. But the live broadcast camera from time to time would always leave the field and focus on the two of them.

Although on the court, Jeremy Lin also won the house with a three-point goal with an emergency stop jumper. Although McGee's dunk from another person also made the fans ecstatic. But everyone is waiting, waiting for the return of the two protagonists of this game.

The NBA Summer League victory was not favored by the teams, so Stotts did not take Yiyang back when the team was at a disadvantage.

In summer league, many undrafted rookies and fringe players will fight for their jobs. So in fact, the physical confrontation in the summer league is very intense. Here, people don't care whether you are the No. 1 pick or the No. 3 pick, as long as you can keep yourself in the NBA, the players will do everything they can.

Therefore, there are too many examples of rookie injuries in the summer league.

Stotts would not dare to take the risk. First of all, Yiyang is a yellow-skinned guy. Among the Asians who have played in the NBA, there are very few particularly healthy ones. Yao Ming is already in a semi-retired state at this moment, and Yi Jianlian has not yet found a next home because of the reason of playing and stopping.

Although Yiyang has no previous injury history, it is still impossible for the Mavericks to take risks with Yiyang's health.

Second, the NBA has four quarters, with a 12-minute rhythm in each quarter, which is very different from the NCAA's 40-minute game system in two halves.

In the NBA, where the competition is more intense but the time is longer, Yiyang still needs a process of adaptation.

It was precisely because of these considerations that Yiyang finally played with four minutes left in the second quarter. And as soon as he plays, the Wizards will immediately replace Wall!

The assistant coaches of the two teams know that only by letting Yiyang and Wall confront each other on the field can they achieve the best training goal!

When Yiyang came back, the Mavericks were 5 points behind the Wizards. This is also because McGee is really not very good at offense, otherwise the point difference may have been more than that. After all, McGee is a serious NBA player.

As soon as he entered the field, the energetic Yiyang used a tough breakthrough to create a foul by McGee. And Wall also scored two more points with an emergency stop jumper after a pick-and-roll!

It seems that Yiyang and Wall, the No. 1 pick, are inseparable. People can't help but marvel, this Tanhuaxiu really has the strength of the champion!

In this way, Yiyang and Wall come and go, but neither of them will play for too long. Their intermittent competition made the fans very addicted, and they still have more to say.

And the scores of the two teams were as tense as the confrontation between Yiyang and Wall, and no one could gain a substantial lead.

This situation has been maintained until the last three and a half minutes of the fourth quarter. The Mavericks trailed by 8 points.

"It's the last moment!" Kidd took off his sunglasses and stared at the court intently. He knows that a player's performance at a critical moment is precisely the best indicator of his strength! What will Yiyang do when the game time is running out and the team is behind?

At this time, Yiyang was not in a hurry to score. After observing off the court for so long, he also saw that the weakest link of the Wizards' defense... well, the weakest link of defense is his compatriots. , Sun Yue.

Although Jeremy Lin is immature, his speed is unmatched by Sun Yue. Yiyang knew that he had attracted the Wizards' defense at this moment, and what he had to do was to give Jeremy Lin a chance!

Yiyang stopped his footsteps two steps away from the three-point line, and began to gesture, directing the group of semi-professional guys to run and attack.

The Mavericks white insider Omar Samhan is one of the most obedient to the command. Although the summer league is a stage to express himself to the utmost, he does not fight alone. This is why Cuban took the initiative to invite him to participate in the summer league. In a team, there must be a few guys who play honestly.

Omar made an off-ball pick-and-roll for Jeremy Lin on the left, and Jeremy Lin immediately started. Sun Yue hit the wall, and Samhan's strong body made it difficult for the national team member to move!

Seeing that Jeremy Lin successfully cut into the inside from the side, Yi Yang, who was two steps outside the three-point line, threw the ball into the air without warning.

By the time people reacted, Jeremy Lin who had cut in had already jumped high. The pass was just right and impartial, and Jeremy Lin could catch the basketball with ease.

Jeremy Lin was not able to stage a good show of dunks due to the take-off position being a little far from the basket. He just flicked it lightly, changing the flight trajectory of the ball, and the basketball entered the net lightly.

An alley-oop layup, although there is no majestic dunk. However, it also shows the unique softness of Asians.

"Haha, I hope this kid won't pass the ball to an old man like me on the court." Terry laughed happily. Yiyang's pass was straightforward, decisive, but also very deadly.

After a wonderful goal, Wall was not to be outdone, and immediately re-invested in the offense.

But this time, the pick-and-roll between McGee and Wall didn't work. When Wall broke through the pick-and-roll, Jeremy Lin immediately stood in front of Wall. Wall subconsciously raised his head to look for Sun Yue, only to find that Yiyang had already made up for Sun Yue.

The tactics failed, and Wall had to force a layup against Jeremy Lin. It's a pity that the number one pick did not succeed under the hard-working defense of this top Harvard student.

Samhan grabbed the rebound and gave the ball directly to Yiyang. Yiyang takes the ball and runs, switching offense is simply the guy's favorite!

Sun Yue was able to keep up with two steps at first, but after halftime, Sun Yue's speed had reached the limit, while Yiyang was still accelerating!

It was Wall who showed his terrifying running ability. This guy suddenly appeared from behind, biting Yiyang tightly, ready to stage a good show of chasing him at any time.

Yiyang ran in front, Jeremy Lin and others followed behind him left and right. When Yiyang stepped into the three-second zone, the No. 1 defender didn't face the defensive frame, but looked at his back right and prepared to pass the ball from behind his head!

Wall saw the change in Yiyang's eyes, and he reached out to steal it. However, the basketball flew from the opposite direction to Yiyang's eyes, and the champion was completely missed!

Behind Yiyang's left, Jeremy Lin had already charged in. After receiving the basketball, this guy made a three-step layup and scored again!

"Haha! Beautiful pass!" Jeremy Lin patted Yiyang's chest excitedly, and Yiyang showed his signature "facial paralysis" expression.

Yiyang chased for four points in a row, making everyone in the Wizards more and more panicked. When McGee was digging inside, he was cut off by Samhan unexpectedly because he was too anxious.

This time, the Wizards retreated very quickly, and there was no chance of a fast break at all. After falling to the position, Sam Han and Jeremy Lin repeated their old tricks and played an off-ball pick-and-roll in the same position.

Wall deliberately moved half a step to his left, just to better intercept the basketball later. Jeremy Lin launched a breakthrough, and Sun Yue was stopped by the pick-and-roll again. Yiyang raised his ball holder, as if he was going to pass the ball!

Just when Waldu stretched out his arm, Yiyang's raised right hand suddenly slammed down! The basketball switched to the right hand in front of Yiyang's body, and then, whoosh!

"Yiyang! He fooled Wall. A beautiful fake fax, he won again in one-on-one with Wall! The jump shot after the breakthrough! Hit! Everyone is afraid of Yiyang Yiyang, he narrowed the point difference between the two sides to only two points!" The number of people watching the game on Sina Live has soared, and CCTV must be regretting it now, how could they not get it? What about the rights to broadcast the game? Summer League can be glamorous at times.

30 seconds, 2 points difference. Both sides have fought to the end, and the burden of deciding the outcome naturally fell on the shoulders of Wall and Yiyang.

Wall didn't make a mistake this time, he used an extremely beautiful rhythm to transform Yiyang. The champion is always the champion, and his strength is not inferior to Yiyang.

After passing Yiyang, Wall responded with a layup, and also widened the point difference to four points with only ten seconds left in the game.

This time, the Mavericks have no timeout available. After receiving the ball from the bottom line, Yiyang ran for a long distance and went straight to the opponent's hinterland.

Everyone thought that this guy would rush to the basket recklessly in the last ten seconds, but Yiyang suddenly pulled back from the mid-range position.

This sudden change in the center of gravity caused Wall to stagger and nearly fall! And Yiyang, after making space for himself, also made a decisive jump shot and scored again! Everyone is crazy, the number one pick was almost knocked to the ground by Dallas No. 1 just now!

It's a pity that there are only 3.2 seconds left before the end of the game. With the timeout running out, even if the Mavericks fouled, it was meaningless.

In 3.2 seconds, Wall dribbled to the midfield and made a long shot. The red light on the backboard came on, and the Wizards won the game with a narrow gap of two points.

"Do it!" Yi Yang waved his hand unwillingly. But Wall, who won the game, did not show any happy emotions.

Such a painless victory in the summer league doesn't mean much to Wall at all. Today, what fans and Wall will remember is not victory, but...

But from now on, everyone knows. The third pick "robbed" by the Mavericks has the strength to fight Wall to the death!

Yiyang, who scored 26 points, 12 assists and 2 steals, is even better than Wall, who scored 20 points and 10 assists!

Yiyang may never have imagined that a loss would completely make him famous in the professional basketball world!

"Let's go, buddy." After the game, Kidd still had something to say. If Yiyang could get more support, such as an NBA-level insider like McGee, then the result may be quite different.

Although it was a pity to lose the game, Yiyang's strength has already made Kidd admire this rookie again.

"Where are you going?" Terry asked.

"Wait for him in the locker room. I'm going to take this kid away, right away! Summer league is not where he stays!" Kidd put on his sunglasses again and squeezed into the player tunnel.

No wonder this guy can defeat the old Coach K. Now that he has defeated the No. 1 pick, who will be next?

Kidd couldn't help showing a smile, that Cuban guy, maybe he really made the right bet this time!
