If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 42 Good Brothers Win Together
Durant called for a screen and then singled Raja Bell.

Bell's defense is good, but Durant is not an ordinary outside line, he is an outside line with inside height.

If the shot is not stable, then resolutely shoot inside.

After thinking it over, Durant's eyes were filled with evil spirits.

Bell couldn't prevent it at all, and in the end he made a big move and was called a foul by the referee.

Durant is Durant, even if he played the same as Schett earlier, he hit the free throw line steadily.

The firmness in Durant's eyes put pressure on the Suns. In the next round, Nash made a rare mistake.

Yi Jian made great achievements in defense.

The cooperation between Nash and Stoudemire has been played dozens of times in front of him.

Anyway, he can't guard Stoudemire, and he will gamble when it's time to gamble.

Yi Jian saw Nash's wink. At this time, he seemed to be Stoudemire, keenly feeling the route Nash wanted to pass.

Therefore, Yi Jian stood in the way.

It was too late for Nash to change the passing line, and the ball had slipped out of his fingertips.

Yi Jian's long arm swooped in and succeeded in stealing.

He only rushed the ball in, and Durant hit without hesitation after getting the ball.

After just holding the ball to kill, Durant felt that he had returned.

Dior, who returned to defense, couldn't stop Durant at all, so he could only choose to foul.

Unexpectedly, Durant, who was already excited, hit 2+1.

Only 4 points in the first three quarters, but 5 points in less than half a minute at the critical moment.

This is Durant, the superstar seedling.

"Good fight!"

Yi Jian excitedly stepped forward to give Durant a high five, good brother.

Durant stopped the Suns this time with a small outburst. After playing again, the Suns hadn't adjusted for almost a minute.

In the end, the veteran Hill stood up and continued the offense with a precise mid-range shot.

It was the Supersonics' turn, because Durant had a threat at the last moment, which attracted part of the Suns' defensive attention, and Yi Jian got the ball more easily.

He didn't hesitate at all after receiving the ball, took the ball and rushed inside, and then forced it.

The sound of a basketball smashing into the rim exploded inexplicably.

In the last minute of the game, the Sonics took the lead.

The situation is a bit bad, and the defense of the Sonics is getting tighter and tighter.

Nash made one himself, but he missed this time.

It's just that Dior rushed to grab the rebound.

After he took the basketball and flicked it back, Stoudemire caught the ball and started straight away.

Snapped!
The same fried basket, still 2+1.
At the critical moment, Stoudemire also withstood the pressure and hit a free throw.

When there were only tens of seconds left, the two sides unexpectedly tied again.

The Sonics requested a timeout, and coach Carlesimo arranged a last-minute tactic.

Back on the court, it's hard to say how much the deployed tactics can be used.

The ability of the players, the strength of the defense on the field, and many times when they come to the field, even the most exquisitely designed tactics can only be used flexibly.

Durant received the ball and the defense was over.

He called a screen, and at the same time Yi Jian was raising his hand for the ball.

Durant tried to bypass the defense and rush in, while Yi Jian turned around and began to slip to the bottom line.

Durant continued to change directions and went in, but the Suns assisted in the defense.

He threw the ball towards Yi Jian, and Yi Jian didn't make any fake moves to catch the ball, and just rushed inside.

The momentum was completely up, and the players inside the Suns subconsciously paused, before they had time to block the eye-catching.

Yi Jian scored two more points, and the Supersonics returned to the leading position.

The Suns coach D'Antoni requested a timeout again. They only had one last chance to attack and they had to hit it.

After returning to the field, the Suns tactics were Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll.

Yi Jian does not have the main defense against Stoudemire now, but he is always ready to help defend against flanking attacks.

The Suns' pick-and-roll cooperation this time did not find a chance.

Yi Jian's help defense was timely, but more importantly, Stoudemire was a little bored and jumped into it.

He passed the ball back to Nash, and the two sides still cooperated in the pick-and-roll.

The supersonic defense against them has also gained a lot of experience.

Normal defense, and then help to defend a little closer.

Nash can also pass to others, but many Suns players are unstable today.

Under the Sonics defense, Stoudemire did not find an opportunity to attack.

Nash actually had a momentary chance, but he didn't have the determination to make a direct shot.

So, while Yi Jian leaned over to help defend, Nash passed the basketball to Dior.

Nash's pass is nothing to say, fast and ruthless.

Diaw was in a two-point position, and he hesitated slightly when he received the ball.

But the action is still done, and now there is no time to think about it, Dior can only make a move.

He didn't jump up, and shot on tiptoe.

However, just as the basketball left his fingertips, a figure leaped high.

Yi Jian flew up.

He didn't return to his normal defensive position that quickly, so he rushed over.

When Dior shot, he blocked it directly.

In fact, if it was normal, Dior would definitely feint and make Yi Jian a foul.

But now there is no extra time, and at the final moment of the game when life and death are decided, he is not so calm and can only throw the ball directly.

Yi Jian slightly hit a penalty, which was a blocked shot.

He attacked and defended, almost directly ending the game.

The game was not completely over yet, and everyone looked in the direction where the basketball fell.

It's the Sonics that have better luck.

The basketball fell in front of Sonics guard Watson, and he quickly caught it.

When the Suns players were about to come and foul, he had already dribbled the ball a big step forward with experience, and then chased it quickly, avoiding the Suns rushing players.

Then, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

In this game, Yi Jian played from start to finish, helping the team win the Suns with 32 points and 15 rebounds.

Tonight, he was a god inside.

At least in terms of data.

[Helping the team win, crushing the Suns rookie DJ-Stroberg, rewarding ball possession +1. 】

There is also an unexpected surprise, Yi Jian is very satisfied.

"Mistakes always appear when you relax, but we had an unbelievable number of mistakes today," Nash said, "We are really out of shape today, maybe we are too tired recently. Everyone thinks winning It's easy for the Sonics, but it doesn't look like that."

The team coach Carlesimo was also very happy after the game. He said: "The Suns are a very strong opponent, but we persisted. Our players performed well."

Yi Jian is exchanging business with Durant, "You can definitely trust Kevin, his downturn cannot last a game. The two of us together can beat many opponents. We are using the speed unimaginable to the outside world. Keep improving."

After defeating the Suns, the Sonics have only one game left before the All-Star weekend.
