The King of the NBA

The Rockets lost in the last game, and they will inevitably learn their lessons.

And Ning Yi's performance in the last game was too good, not even inferior to Love, and even better than Martin. Naturally, the Rockets did not dare to underestimate him, and the research on Ning Yi was also very detailed. So at the beginning of today, Parsons guarded Ning Yi's left hand side, forcing Ning Yi to break through to the right hand side, even if Ning Yi rushed over, it didn't matter, there were still people behind him to take care of him.

It doesn't matter even if Ning Yi scores a goal, the purpose of the Rockets is to make Ning Yi uncomfortable.

On the sidelines, Adelman also saw the clues, but he just smiled lightly and didn't care, thinking that although McHale was well prepared, this time he was about to miscalculate.

"Hmph." Ning Yi snorted coldly, dribbled the ball under his crotch, and broke through from the right side.

"Sure enough." Parsons secretly thought, trying to adjust his footsteps to block Ning Yi, but still guarding the left side. He can let Ning Yi rush over from the right side, but he can't put it on the left side.

Ning Yi accelerated, broke through from the right side, and passed Parsons. The inside line of the Rockets had already been waiting there, looking at Ning Yi coldly, waiting for him to hit the muzzle.

At this moment, Ning Yi slowed down and retreated suddenly.

To be precise, instead of retreating, he took a step back to the right, instead of moving forward, and instantly opened the distance from Parsons, which also made the waiting Rockets inside a display.

Swish!

Ning Yi adjusted and made a mid-range shot.

Turning around, Ning Yi ran back. He was not actually a breakthrough this time. The breakthrough was just a cover. It was still a shot. If it was a breakthrough layup, Ning Yi was more used to the left side, but shooting didn't matter.

After another tens of seconds, Ning Yi took the ball again.

This time Ning Yi didn't break through, but raised it outside the three-point line. Parsons didn't jump, but Ning Yi jumped up directly, with a little back and a flick of his wrist.

Swish!

Go in again.

Parsons was stunned, his expression changed.

Coach McHale also changed his face slightly, thinking about what to do. Obviously, the predetermined plan did not work well. If he wanted to restrain Ning Yi, he had to rely on other methods.

"Haha." Adelman laughed, in a good mood, looked at McHale contemptuously, and said with a sneer, "It's too easy for you to prevent Ning."

on the pitch.

Ning Yi was happy, and scored two goals in a row. One was to take advantage of the opponent's targeted defense, step back from the right side, open the distance and shoot directly from the center, and the other was to lean back for a three-pointer. Ning Yi was sure that the opponent could do nothing Blocked shots, so I shot with confidence and resolutely, and my hit rate was naturally high.

After these two balls came down, he already had some comprehension. It doesn't matter if the Rockets change their defensive strategy against him later, Ning Yi can also handle it.

In a blink of an eye, a few minutes passed.

The Rockets are based on defense this time, intending to start from defense, and then play their own offense to defeat the Timberwolves.

But at the beginning, at the point of Ning Yi, their defense failed. Like the previous game, Parsons did not do a good job of defending Ning Yi. After only a few minutes in the first quarter, Ning Yi had already scored 8 points.

"beep"

McHale called a timeout.

First came the substitutions. Seeing that Parsons was replaced and replaced by Garcia, McHale grabbed Garcia and told him: "Get close to Ning, oppress him physically, and interfere with him. You don't have to block him, but you must You can’t be so comfortable when letting him shoot. Well, you should know some specific skills.”

"Understood." Garcia smiled.

These are nothing more than some small means, small actions, although they are not aboveboard, but they are not shady or insidious, and they will not hurt people, they just interfere with Ning Yi.

On the court, many people think that small moves are dirty, even in the NBA, these small moves still exist, and they have been playing a role. As long as they don’t hurt people, no one will say anything, because this is part of the game itself. You can't handle it, so don't mess with the NBA.

Pause ends.

Returning to the field, Ning Yi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Garcia's small movements are too many, very hidden, and the movements are very small, such as pulling Ning Yi's jersey, pushing him gently, the shot is not heavy, and will not push me Ning Yi, even if it is a layup Sometimes it will not make Ning Yi lose his center of gravity and fall, but it is this little force that destroys Ning Yi's shot.

Such a little damage is also difficult for Ning Yi to hit.

After coming down a few times, Ning Yi was suddenly annoyed: "Still, this guy has too many tricks, and it's very hidden, the referee can't see it at all. I'm afraid the referee won't blow it if he sees it once or twice."

Ning Yi is not a superstar, nor can he enjoy the "star whistle". Facing Garcia's small actions, he can only figure out his own way.

"beep"

Adelman also saw the problem, called a timeout, replaced Ning Yi, then spread out the tactical board, and arranged tactics for the others: "Wait a minute."

At this time, more than half of the first quarter has passed, so it should be replaced.

After the timeout ended and the players entered the field, Adelman sat down beside Ning Yi and said, "Ning, don't be angry, small movements are part of the game."

"I know." Ning Yi smiled bitterly: "It's just uncomfortable."

"Hehe." Adelman said: "The best way to deal with this kind of small moves is to have enough anti-interference ability and strong enough anti-interference ability, and the opponent's small moves will be useless to you. But you can't do it now, but you can't do it now. Not that there is no way to deal with it.”

Ning Yi's eyes lit up.

Adelman said: "The way is, you don't give the opponent the opportunity to display these small moves. Reduce the ball, reduce the breakthrough, reduce the dribble, and don't stick to the opponent. You have my excellent shooting ability, and the timing is also good. Very good, this is your advantage. Think about it, if you are one or two meters away from the opponent, what is the use of the opponent's small movements when you shoot? If you get rid of the opponent in the first step, what is the use of the opponent's small movements?"

Ning Yi was stunned, nodded again and again, and flattered: "The coach is still amazing."

"Haha." Adelman smiled comfortably after being photographed: "These are just experiences. What you lack is experience. I just gave you a few pointers. How to do it depends on yourself."

In this section, Ning Yi did not continue to play.

Ning Yi did not play well after the first quarter for the Timberwolves, and Love played well, but Harden was in a bit of a state today, scoring 15 points in the first quarter, helping the Rockets lead by 5 points in the first quarter.

Entering the second quarter, Adelman patted Ning Yi and said, "Ning, you go."

Ning Yi stood up, strode onto the court, looked at Garcia of the Rockets, grinned, revealing a row of white teeth
