The opening three-pointer in basketball

"My God, Bai was really on full fire today. Even when he faced Harden and Westbrook's double-teams, he kept scoring. He is really too strong."

"Bai Hui will fall back. He should come to the Lakers. Only he can inherit Kobe's legacy."

"Stop dreaming, Bai is not for sale to our Timberwolves."

"The Timberwolves are in internal strife. It's a waste of time for you to keep it. Trade it quickly."

"Get out of here. Bai will always belong to the Timberwolves. If the club dares to sell him, I will burn down the club."

"Oh my god, it's so awesome. Bai's fadeaway jumper is so cool, and his shooting percentage is higher than Kobe's. It's simply a miracle."

Many fans were watching this game, and they couldn't help but sigh when they saw Bai Yi's wonderful fadeaway jumper.

At the Minnesota Target Center, Brooks sighed and then called a timeout.

If Bai Yi is allowed to shoot such crazy backward three-pointers again, I'm afraid he will be unable to help but become a Bai Yi fan.

A fadeaway three-pointer?

The league has been in the league for so many years, and even though Kobe Bryant has been decent, there are countless kids around the world who want to learn, but in the end they can't.

Moreover, Bai Yi, a rookie who is already so strong in three-point shooting, can actually fall back.

How can others guard against this?

It's not that Hardenweis doesn't work hard, it's not that Brooks' skills and tactics are not good, it's just that he is too vain.

"Bah bang bang!"

When the players returned to the bench, Brooks clapped his hands. Seeing that Harden and Westbrook still looked confused, he clapped his hands again and raised the volume at the same time.

"Guys, we went all out, Bai Yiyi went all out, he showed his ability to shoot fadeaways, how should we respond?"

Everyone looked confused.

They are just players, not players like Rondo and Paul who like to think.

It's really difficult for them to think about how to defend someone.

Brooks had known this outcome for a long time.

In fact, he had no choice. Faced with the situation in front of him, the only thing he could do was to feed the players chicken soup.

Brooks clapped his hands again, "Guys, don't be afraid. Bai's constant fadeaway jumpers actually consume a lot of money. Even if he takes the lead now, it will be very difficult later."

"Let's make him crazy now and let him be proud. Just wait. In the second half, Bai's three-point shooting percentage will drop off a cliff."

The players stared at Brooks with wide eyes.

"Guys, think about Kobe. He is also a master of the fadeaway. With his incredible physical strength, he still cannot withstand the consumption caused by the fadeaway, and his shooting rate is unstable."

"You can't escape this rule."

This time everyone seemed to understand, and some people clapped their hands and applauded.

After a while, the players from both teams returned to the court together.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Bai Yi is still shooting three-pointers. His shooting percentage on fadeaway jumpers is indeed far lower than that of the three-pointers in the field, probably around 50%.

But even this is scary enough.

A 50% hit rate on three-pointers is equal to a 75% hit rate on two-pointers.

Durant is known as the most stable mid-range shooter in the league, but he is only 50%.

Under such circumstances, the Timberwolves, under the leadership of Bai Yi, continued to maintain the lead.

At the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves already led the Thunder by seven points, 32:25.

Bai Yi scored 18 points in the first quarter.

Brooks looked at Bai Yi's shooting data and couldn't help but fell into deep thought. These data were really good. With such a high shooting rate, Bai Yi's three-pointers were just like other people's two-pointers.

This other person is a top mid-range shooter in the league like Durant.

For example, Westbrook's two-point shooting percentage is not as good as his three-point shooting percentage.

It's really accurate.

Brooks is not sure whether Bai Yi will stop playing later. After all, Bai Yi can create a super strong man who averages 50 points per game.

Such a great person cannot be judged by his previous experience.

Brooks was very nervous. If Bai Yi's hitting rate could continue, wouldn't he be slapped in the face?

The expectations the players had originally had were completely over.

At that time, morale was completely depleted and it was impossible to make a comeback.

Thinking of this, Brooks became even more nervous.

He whispered his concerns to an assistant coach.

The assistant coach glanced at Brooks and then said: "I think we may be able to try more combinations and let more people pair up to defend White."

"Just like Bai's fadeaway three-pointer just now, he jumped very high."

"At that time I was thinking, maybe we can let Durant defend, after all, he is taller."

Brooks shook his head, "No, Durant can keep up with his speed, but he is too tall and turns slowly. Bai can easily get rid of him."

The assistant coach thought for a while and said, "Can we use Robertson?"

Robertson is the Thunder's defensive champion. He has almost no offensive ability and no shooting skills, but he defends very hard.

Brooks thought about it and thought he should give it a try.

Soon in the second quarter, the Thunder made substitutions, Harden came off the court and Robertson came on.

"Keep an eye on Bai, don't give him any chance."

Robertson is a white man with a lean build, short hair, and a pale face. He looks a bit like a brutal killer in a Hollywood movie.

He looked excited and said, "I understand."

A moment later, Robertson came on the court, and Bai Yi faced a double attack from Robertson and Westbrook.

Robertson is a serious defensive player. He is similar to Tucker. His hands are not very clean and he makes a lot of small moves.

Under Robertson's defense, Bai Yi's three-point shooting percentage really dropped a lot. In the second quarter, he only made two three-pointers out of seven.

Brooks was so excited watching from the sidelines that he pumped his fist and said: "That's it, that's it. Robertson did it. Our people are just too clean. We should defend like Robertson."

At the same time, the Timberwolves had a lot of difficulty scoring because of Bai Yi's three-point shooting percentage, while the Thunder quickly caught up.

At the end of the second quarter, the Timberwolves 56:55 Thunder, the difference between the two teams was only one point.

Baiyi scored 18 points in the first quarter and only six points in the second quarter.

Brooks clenched his fists and laughed excitedly, "We are getting better and better. It's great, it's really great."

"I finally found a way to limit White, not only to have Westbrook who can follow closely, but also to have Robertson, a small action player."

"Hahaha, this will be a great discovery, and all the teams in the league will be grateful to me for it."

Brooks was very excited. He felt like a great scientist now and he had made a great invention.

"Great, we finally found a way to limit Bai."
