Chapter 384 General

This year, Arenas, who was not troubled by injuries, was at his peak, and was called "the general."

Yang Di saw that the system displayed the title of Arenas—a convulsive offensive player who relies on jump shots, and a reliable finisher at critical moments.

With the addition of Caron Butler, who has become increasingly proficient in scoring, the Wizards have a strong backcourt.

The Warriors dare not double-team Arenas easily. Arenas can pass to Butler and Jamison to end the offense, but the efficiency is very low for one-on-one defense.

On the other hand, the Wizards have nothing to do with the Warriors.

In less than 3 minutes, Yang Di played hard inside, causing another foul by Haywood, and the Wizards replaced Michael Ruffin as a substitute insider.

Michael Ruffin was a second-round pick in 99. He has a strong rebounding ability, but his height is only 2 meters, which is not even as high as Yang Digao.

It was easier for Yang Di to score inside, scoring 13 points in a single quarter under the double-team defense.

The Warriors led the Wizards by 35 points 32 to 3 in the first quarter.

Arenas also scored double-digit points in a single quarter and scored 11 points, including 6 free throws, which caused defensive fouls by Foyer, Fisher and others.

Very lethal.

Arenas played an average of about 42 minutes per game this season. When the score is tight, he will basically not choose to rest.

He rested for 3 minutes in the second quarter, and then played again, and the Warriors replaced Baron Davis accordingly.

On the field, Monta Ellis was particularly excited.

He is about the same height as Arenas, and his playing style is somewhat similar. Before he entered the league, his template was Arenas. This time he played against the Wizards. As expected, Arenas' pull-up jumper is worth learning from.

Monta Ellis feels that the biggest difference between him and Arenas is that Arenas's mid-range jumper is more stable than him, and he is more inclined to layups.

During the game, Ellis and Arenas faced off several times.

Arenas has a balance between his left and right hands, and Ellis now prefers to attack with his right hand. In this comparison, it is obvious that Arenas is more difficult to defend.

Arenas made two layups, and the Wizards took the lead.

More than six minutes later, Yang Di came on the court, grabbed an offensive rebound and then made a tip-up to help the Warriors tie the score.

Before halftime, the Warriors tied with the Wizards at 62. Arenas scored 8 points in this quarter, and his 19 points in the half surpassed Yang Di's 18 points in the half.

"The nickname GLA sounds like a general. Arenas has become famous after leaving the Warriors." Yang Di felt that the NBA's scorers had exploded recently. The stars scored 40+ and 50+ points.

"The key to this game is that his touch is very good, and he might have convulsions." Baron Davis said jokingly.

……

The prophecy became a reality. After the start of the third quarter, Arenas really felt even hotter.

He made a layup, made a three-pointer and scored 7 points in a row.

The Warriors called timeouts to curb Arenas' touch, while deploying double-team tactics during this period, using Baron Davis' speed and Danny Granger's height to set up obstacles.

Arenas scored Caron Butler, but Butler missed a three-pointer and failed to continue the offensive momentum.

At the same time, Yang Di crossed over Heywood who was defending him, and made a layup with a low hand. Although Heywood also has a height of 2 meters and super long arms, he couldn't stop Yang Di at all.

After being double-teamed several times and his teammates failed to make a shot, the Warriors double-teamed more recklessly.

Arenas was very patient in conducting, and finally in the 7th minute, Butler made another three-pointer. This time, he made a shot and continued to score from outside for the Wizards.

"Strengthen low-post offense, strengthen offense and defense and switch offense!"

Montgomery saw that this game could not restrain the Wizards' offense at all, so he simply let the Warriors attack with all their strength, preparing to fight the Wizards recklessly.

The offensive rhythm of the two sides on the court accelerated in vain. During the fast break, Yang Di received a pass from his teammate and completed a mouth-to-mouth dunk, which surprised everyone.

At the end of the three quarters, the Wizards led the Warriors by 96 points 93 to 3.

"I've never seen a match like this before!" said Cai Nan, a guest from the Court TV broadcasting the match.

"In the NBA's previous offenses, there were high-scoring games, but it was definitely not like this when the whole court was galloping and playing, feeling that the ball passed through everyone's hands, and then handed over to the most confident person. , high hit rate to end the round, from start to finish."

"Arenas has scored 35 points and scored 16 points in a single quarter. He also scored a lot of free throws in this quarter. The Warriors are struggling to defend him." Yu Jia said worriedly, obviously standing From the warrior's standpoint.

"Yes, the top priority for the Warriors now is how to restrain Arenas from playing, and how to ensure their offensive efficiency."

As soon as Cai Nan said this, Yu Jia immediately froze in place. He blinked and thought, isn't this what Director Xu said?Cai Nan also has a tendency to become the commentator of the older generation!
Everyone knows that Cai Nan and Yang Di have a very close relationship, Yu Jia thought about it, and then chatted with Cai Nan about Yang Di's past.

"When I was in Miami, Yang Di was actually quite strong, but the team had Brian Grant as the insider and a star player like Lamar Odom, so Yang Di's playing time was very limited. All in less than 10 minutes."

"That's right, but that period was also the period when Yang Di grew the fastest. Although we didn't pay much attention to him at that time, we all knew that Miami had a rebounding superman."

"His rebounding ability may be the strongest in the league today, and he will be the rebounding leader again this year."

"The youngest rebounder, the youngest with 1000 rebounds, and the youngest with 2000 rebounds. If he stays healthy, he may have more than 10 rebounds in less than [-] years in his career."

"After this season, Yang Di's career points and rebounds will exceed 3000."

The two talked about Yang Di's data with great interest, mainly because Yang Di's data is so exciting, averaging 25+14 per game, ranking first in front of many historical inside super giants in the NBA.

But in this game, Yang Di didn't have many rebounds, and Foyer grabbed more rebounds than him.

Yang Di's scoring has been rising all the way. He turned around and hit the board just after playing in the fourth quarter, scoring his 31st point.

Arenas didn't rest, so he rested for 2 minutes in the third quarter, and then stayed on the court at the beginning of this quarter. Taking advantage of Yang Di's absence and causing the Warriors to foul continuously, he expanded the score advantage to 8 points, forcing Yang Di to play early 2 minutes.

Arenas scored 42 points, 45 points, 48 ​​points...

His scoring in each quarter was very balanced, and the Wizards also led the Warriors at the last moment.

Yang Di felt that his scoring power was still not as good as Arenas, and finally watched the Wizards beat his Warriors 128-120 helplessly.

End the three-game winning streak.
