If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 28 The Rising Period of the Reconstruction Team

Paul and West's pick-and-roll cooperation, Paul is still more used to dismantling the ball and allowing West to make a mid-range shot.

The pick-and-roll tactic is a basic tactic in basketball, and basically everyone knows it.

It's just that in many cases, even if you know what the other party is going to do, it is difficult to completely restrict it.

However, Yi Jian didn't struggle at all when defending. He didn't change players in the pick-and-roll, and he kept interfering in front of David West, and he shot whatever he wanted.

It's okay if Paul makes a direct shot through the cover, it depends on whether the Hornets' two All-Stars are tough.

Facts have proved that the hands of the two are just as hard.

After David West hit a ball, he hit the iron three times in a row.

Paul tried to make a shot and also hit the iron.

After Durant made another hit on the Supersonic side to widen the gap in the game, Paul finally hit a three-pointer.

Then he hit two more points to catch up with the score.

However, Paul habitually did not continue.

He passed to David West, who missed again.

Yi Jian kept his distance to defend, with a sarcastic smile on his face, "Shoot, shoot..."

When the Supersonics were attacking, David West received the ball in various defenses.

The Supersonic's outside pass is relatively average, but his defense is relatively successful.

As a result, his teammates hit the iron, and Yi Jian rushed directly to the basket and grabbed an offensive rebound.

David West caught up with a direct foul, and the result was five fouls.

His five fouls are still good, but Butler has already committed six fouls defending Durant.

It was the last few minutes of the game, and the Hornets did not replace David West.

They still had a Paul and David West pick-and-roll, and this time he finally made it.

David West yelled and waved his lower arm heavily.

Yi Jian said disdainfully: "So happy? You are still behind."

David West just wanted to hit someone, but he held back at the critical moment, he couldn't foul again.

On the contrary, Yi Jian didn't foul much this time, he didn't have close defense at all.

Thinking of David West in this way is even more irritating. He obviously has room to shoot, so why didn't he make it.

When there were only 2 minutes left in the game, Yi Jian finally received the pass.

David West stared at him, and the defense was impeccable.

Yi Jian made a fake shot, and David West forcibly controlled his urge to jump forward.

Yi Jian made another tentative step, and David West felt that his patience had been tested.

Yi Jian made a breakthrough, and David West blocked it in time this time.

He thought he could make Yi Jian hit someone with the ball, but he didn't expect Yi Jian to stop and turn his back.

If the first step is not squeezed, Yi Jian will not act recklessly.

He sits back and David West is solid up there.

However, Yi Jian smoothly turned around again and entered the hunter skill area.

He practiced this trick many times every day, and he was already very proficient.

David West suddenly had a familiar feeling. He hated these beasts with explosive physical fitness, and he could be strong when he turned around, Falk!
Yi Jian didn't completely get rid of the opponent at this time. David West could choose to stick to the interference, but he stopped in the end because he was afraid of the referee's whistle.

Therefore, Yi Jian went in and directly completed the dunk.

There was no way, David West clenched his fists and lowered his head, the previous impulse had a price.

Turning back, Paul passed the ball to West who went out.

David West did not hesitate, and used a familiar posture to throw a mid-range shot.

hit!

David West waved his arms again, and now he can only help the team with offense.

However, when the Supersonics were attacking, Yi Jian went to the top of the arc to catch the ball and passed it to Durant, who made a three-pointer.

The Hornets' defense has actually been desperately keeping up, but Durant is completely unreasonable.

The Supersonics' lead came to 5 points, and there were only a few tens of seconds left.

Durant's three-pointer stopped the Hornets. After playing again, Paul had no other choice but to screen and then shoot a three-pointer.

Unfortunately, no hit.

The Supersonics began to press time, and the Hornets had no choice but to use foul tactics.

Watson made one of two free throws. In theory, the Hornets still have a chance.

It's just that they really didn't have the ability to ignore the defense on the offensive end, and they didn't find a chance after several passes.

Seeing that the time was running out, Paul rushed in and made a layup.

Then, the game is over.

Yi Jian scored another double-double in this game, and the Sonics also ushered in their first three-game winning streak of the season.

Looking at the data, Paul seems to be the most efficient player of the two teams, but the Hornets did not win.

After the game, Hornets coach Scott talked about Durant's three-pointer that killed the score, and said helplessly: "We discussed strictly guarding against their three-pointers when arranging tactics, because these guys are good at grasping the timing of shots and shooting accurately. Sexually it's been great. But we're not doing it well on the court."

Carlesimo said: "Yi Jian and Durant are already star players, and they are under tighter defense, so we will work hard to let them get shooting opportunities... I think we are on the right track."

[Helping the team defeat the opponent, the key performance is far better than the Hornets rookie Julian White, and the defense is rewarded with +1. 】

The Sonics, who were on the right track, were fucked by the Bulls in Chicago two days later, and they didn't break the winning streak again.

In this game, Yi Jian and Durant played very averagely.

Durant has never done anything to Luol Deng, and Yi Jian was beaten by a group of insiders from the Bulls.

What Joe Smith, Ben Wallace, Tyrus Thomas, Noah and so on.

Yi Jian was restricted, and there was nothing he could do about it, but he still had something to gain, after all, the Bulls had two rookies.

[The data is obviously stronger than that of Bulls rookie Joakim Noah, rewarding +2 for defense, +1 for rebounding, and +1 for passing. 】

[The data is obviously stronger than the Bulls rookie Aaron Gray, rewarding rebounds +1. 】

On December 12, the Sonics came to New York to play against the Knicks, the worst team in the East.

In Madison Square Garden, Yi Jian and Durant rose again.

The current Knicks, under the coaching of NBA star Isiah Thomas, are in a mess both offensively and defensively.

But their salaries are exploding.

The mud with stupid people and a lot of money can be regarded as a wonderful scenery of the alliance.

The Knicks finally got rid of Francis' big contract in the summer, and in exchange for Randolph, they are also trying to change.

But they have another big contract, and Marbury fell out with the team again, and it is estimated that it will rot in his hands.

The Knicks' current offensive end is mainly Crawford and Randolph, two data brushes that the outside world thinks, and the third point is the fat center Eddie Curry who looks mighty but is actually afraid of confrontation and has no rebounds.

Their configuration is basically players who can attack but can't defend, including David Lee and Nate Robinson on the bench.

The point is, because there is no playmaker, their offensive players can only play individually.

Their current No. [-] organizer is actually a typical sixth-man style, who can beat six in all kinds of singles with the ball, can you believe it?
