against the front

Chapter 17 Beast Tamer

"Yan, take a good rest." After the first quarter, Tyrone Corbin personally handed Yan Hua a towel and patted Yan Hua on the back as a sign of Yan Hua's outstanding performance. encouragement.

"Thank you coach." Yan Hua, who was sweating profusely and panting heavily, slumped down on the bench after receiving the towel handed over by Tyrone Corbin, and confronted Michael Beasley. Yan Hua's physical exertion is very serious for a whole quarter. If Yan Hua plays this way throughout the game, Yan Hua estimates that he can last for 25 minutes at most.

Yan Hua played all 10 minutes of the first quarter, and made 7 of 4 shots and 1 of 1 free throws in the game, scoring 9 points, 4 rebounds, and 1 steal. Tyrone Corbin was very satisfied with Yan Hua's performance in the first quarter as he did not lose the whole match.

However, Yan Hua is not completely without weaknesses, at least he has considerable problems in defense, his height and wingspan are all dominant, and his movement speed is not bad, but Yan Hua is not very good at making use of his excellent physical condition , and there are also big problems in the choice of defensive positions, but these deficiencies and gaps in defensive awareness can be made up through acquired training, so for these shortcomings of Yan Hua, Tyrone Corbin is not I don't take it very seriously, I don't care about it, I don't care about it when I'm not in my position. For the summer league that basically has no defense, Yan Hua's current shortcomings are not really any shortcomings. As for what to do in the regular season, that's not the case. I need to think about the problem. Tyrone Corbin's duty now is to find problems, not solve them.

Compared with Yan Hua's contentment when he left the court, Michael Beasley, who was on the Heat's bench, was full of anger at the moment. Although Beasley also scored 11 points in the first quarter and grabbed 4 Rebounds, but I am the No. 12 pick, I am known as a genius who will succeed as long as he enters the NBA, but today in the first game of the summer league, he encountered a stumbling block in the hands of a mere No. 12 pick. Although the two sides just exploded each other, Beasley's old face has nowhere to put it now. If he can't even handle a No. [-] pick, how can he beat Derrick Rose, who has snatched his No. [-] pick.

Looking back on the past, whether in high school or college, no one has ever embarrassed himself so much, so Michael Beasley, who was sitting on the bench, became more and more angry. After a rough meal, it is estimated that Beasley won't even be able to sleep soundly tonight.

After resting for a whole quarter, Yan Hua made his appearance again in the second half, but as soon as Yan Hua stepped onto the court, he found that Beasley on the opposite side was already staring at him. From Bliss's lips, Yan Hua seemed to read A word, Beast, is the meaning of beast. Using beast to describe a player is not only not derogatory, it can also be regarded as a compliment. Beasley said beast to himself, and most likely he is describing himself as a beast. After a burst of rich associations, Yan Hua was thinking, could it be that he was too arrogant to make Beasley feel ashamed?

"Boy from Huaguo, congratulations on successfully angering a beast. You will pay for what you did." When the two sides approached, Beasley threatened Yan Hua with a fierce face. Only then did Yan Hua understand what Beasley meant by the beast. It turned out that he compared himself to a beast. He really didn't want to be shameless, and he didn't even blush when he praised himself.

"Hi, Michael, I would like to introduce myself to you. My name is Yan Hua. I am a basketball player now. Before I was drafted by the NBA, I had another profession, which was an animal trainer." In Beasley's initiative After saying hello to Yan Hua, Yan Hua returned a few words to Beasley. However, due to his lack of fluency in English, Yan Hua spoke very slowly, and when talking about the animal trainer, Yan Hua Hua also deliberately emphasized the tone.

"FVCK, you bastard." After hearing Yan Hua say that his previous occupation was a beast trainer, Beasley became angry instantly. Nima, I describe myself as a beast, but you call yourself a beast trainer. Isn't that true? Are you making it clear that you want to disgust me, boy, I will definitely make you look good later.

"Beast trainer, hahahaha..." Dante Green and Sean Singletary, who were not far from Yanhua, immediately raised the barbell after hearing the conversation between Beasley and Yanhua. The laughter made Beasley even more annoyed, and after the game ended, Yan Hua's nickname of "Beast Tamer" spread like wildfire.

After the start of the third quarter, the Kings, who took the lead in attacking, finally handed the basketball to Yan Hua near the paint area after a messy pass from outside. Next, the small hook is easily hit. Although Battelle's small hook skill is not high-level, but Yan Huasheng is tall and long, and only needs to take off lightly. Whether it is Beasley or the Heat's center Joel Anthony. There is no way.

Beasley couldn't defend against Yan Hua's back singles and small hooks, and Yan Hua also couldn't defend against Beasley's various face-up attacks, so the progress of the third quarter was similar to that of the first quarter. Relying on back-up singles and small hooks, Yan Hua kept singles Beasley and Heat center Joel Anthony, while Beasley used his kaleidoscopic all-round attack, constantly playing with Yan Hua. Hua and Dante-Green.

With 1 minute left in the third quarter, Tyrone Corbin took advantage of the dead ball and replaced Yan Hua. Yan Hua has played 23 minutes in total today. According to head coach Reggie- According to Toyce's arrangement, in the summer league, 20-25 minutes of Yan Hua's game is enough, so Tyrone Corbin replaced Yan Hua in advance. Won't be playing anymore.

When Yan Hua left the field, the thousands of spectators who had come to watch Beasley gave applause to Yan Hua. In their opinion, Yan Hua's performance today was no worse than Beasley's, so they Yan Hua should be given his own applause and cheers.

Yan Hua did not expect to be sent off by the audience at the scene. You must know that before the start of the game, there were many die-hard Beasley fans at the scene who hurled abuse and ridicule at Yan Hua, so after hearing the audience around After the applause and cheers, Yan Hua raised his arms and waved to them.

Applause, cheers, Yan Hua enjoyed being cheered and praised very much.

And those reporters who had been waiting to see Yan Hua make a fool of themselves after the start of the game fell silent after seeing the scene in front of them.
