NBA villain

Chapter 215

The continuous momentum of chasing points boosted the morale of the Warriors. Coach Johnny called a timeout in time to prevent the Magic from being robbed of too many points.

Even so, the Magic's lead was bit by bit eroded amidst the loud cheers from the audience.

It wasn't until Francis Biao hit his first three-pointer of the field that the Magic regained stability, leading the Warriors 80 to 76 into the final quarter.

At the end of halftime, most of the basketball commentators observing the game thought that the Magic could win the game, but the Warriors’ chasing momentum in the third quarter suddenly increased. At this time, no one dared to say that the Magic would definitely win. Festival.

The two teams entered the rotation time.

The Warriors lineup is PG Salmons, SG Pietrus, SF Dunleavy, PF Aranaal Foyer and C Dale Davis, while the Magic use PG Jamil Nelson, SG Steve Francis , SF Turkoglu, PF Pat - Garrity, C Mario - Casu lineup.

Francis has always been a representative of high playing time in the league. He has averaged more than 40 minutes per game in three of his five seasons in Houston. So far this season, he has averaged 39.7 minutes per game, second only to Allen- Iverson and LeBron James.

Looking at this posture, the coach is going to let Francis play until the end.

Francis continued his touch. After the start of the fourth quarter, he succeeded in the middle distance and caused a foul by Pietrus. He scored 6 points in a row and opened the score to 10 points.

Montgomery called a timeout, and Yang Di stood up directly from the bench.

"coach."

Montgomery shook his head, gritted his teeth and rejected Yang Di's fiery request to play.

Although he is not a famous coach in the NBA, nor is he a meritorious coach in the NCAA, but he is a rigorous and confident coach.The game can be lost, but it is definitely not a momentary gain or loss. The Warriors are in the rebuilding period. It is more important for players to learn to resist pressure in adversity than to win the game.

So Montgomery instilled this philosophy in every substitute player, and firmly believed that they could regain the situation.

Sometimes in the NBA, the change of the coach is so unpredictable. Most of the time, the fans don’t understand why the coach doesn’t put the main players on the field in advance to stabilize the situation, or replace the stars they expect to see, and generate various inexplicable guesses, such as It's not about being discriminated against, or because the coach doesn't like it.

At 8 minutes and 28 seconds, Yang Di replaced him.

Yang Di, who came on the field, immediately blocked Jamison's breakthrough layup, guarding the penalty area and breaking his personal record for the number of blocked shots in a single game.

7 blocks, the audience gave a standing ovation.

Howard was even more restless off the court. He had only fouled three times at this time, and he always felt that his physical strength was particularly good today, as if he could not use it up, so he looked at the coach with anticipation in his eyes.

At 6 minutes and 59 seconds, Coach Johnny replaced Howard on the field.

At this time, under the stimulation of Yang Di's block protection, the Warriors got a little momentum again, and the score caught up to 94 to 99.

"I won't let you score again!"

Howard didn't know what was wrong with him. When he passed by Richardson, he said a trash talk to Richardson, and immediately made Richardson very angry. Take a lesson.

But at this time it was the Magic attacking.

Francis, who has scored 29 points in this field, saved his energy and distributed the ball to the wing Mobley organization.

Mobley hooked his fingers at Howard, and Howard ran to the three-point line and blatantly set up a pick-and-roll at the bottom right of Mobley.

Fisher thought to himself that this will let you pass, so I will stop messing around.

He took a quick step to follow Mobley, and Mobley ran over Howard together. When passing by, Howard secretly made a bad move, pouted his waist and tried to block Mobley a little more.

Fisher is so smart, when he noticed Howard's excessive movement, he immediately screamed "ah", as if he had been shocked by someone, and fell to the ground convulsively.

When he fell down, Howard was exposed, and the referee immediately blew Howard a screen violation.

"The little rookie's thinking is too simple." After hearing the whistle, Fisher got up and glanced at Howard triumphantly.

Yang Di shook his head. He didn't dare to use this kind of trick when he was in the Heat last season. You know, he was still a backup center at that time, and he didn't think about fouling at all. He can only say that losing the ball for nothing is too stupid. He would rather The quality of the cover is a little lower, and you need to cover more times.

The Warriors attacked, Richardson dribbled the ball behind his back, and Yang Di blocked Francis for him.

"repair!"

Francis yelled, but it was too late, and Richardson made a jumper one step inside the three-point line.

Although Howard stretched out his hand to interfere, Richardson shot very quickly and completed the overall projection before his interference came, the rhythm was in one go, and he fell into the frame neatly. 99 to 96.

Howard's face was blue and white. Francis saw that his expression was not right, so he came over and patted his shoulder, but he opened his mouth. After all, he was not as humble and friendly as he met that big Chinese man in Houston. He has always wanted to cover people, and Howard, from the first day of joining the team, has been the core of the Magic's reconstruction.

After halftime, Howard asked for the ball.

Francis frowned, but still dropped the ball in.

Howard turned around and attacked face-to-face.

Yang Di: "Come on rookie, I will crush your ball down hard, as easy as crushing an ant, oh no, a strong cockroach."

Howard tried his best to shake Yang Di's hateful trash talk out of his mind, and then dribbled the ball to the left with both hands, which seemed to be a forced breakthrough to the left.

Yang Di's center of gravity moved slightly, not daring to be careless.

The second time, Howard turned his back and patted the ball on the ground, and he grabbed the basketball again, with his right foot as the axis, and his left foot drew a big circle on the ground, and then moved to the right side of Yang Di, " Just like Yang Di dunked him in the first half, he kicked the ground and exploded, jumping up in an instant.

Howard raised his arms high, and he felt that he had completely shaken Yang Di away. He had a premonition of how amazing this dunk would be, and won applause from all the audience.

He smashed the ball down hard!

But at this moment, a big hand suddenly appeared on the line of his dunk, and it just happened to completely and firmly hold down the surface on the other side of the basketball.

"how can that be!"

Howard only left this last impression in his mind, and then a force so huge that he couldn't resist came, and he grabbed the ball from his hands.

Howard landed on both feet, his center of gravity was unstable, and he staggered and fell to the ground.

Yang Di also fell down like a god, still holding the basketball he just lifted in his hand, tilting his head, looking at him with a smile, and said coldly: "I'll give you a suggestion, don't play in low positions in the future, so awkward."

Howard's face was on fire all of a sudden, and the audience was shocked by Yang Di's grabbing cap.

It wasn't until Yang Di made a direct pass to Richardson that Richardson remembered that it was time for a fast break. At this time, the audience burst into cheers like gravel and gold, and the fans shouted Yang Di's name loudly. All were ignited with passion.

"Rookie, welcome to the NBA!" Everyone shouted, no matter whether you are the number one pick or not, you will be suppressed in front of Yang Di.
