If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 54 Fate
Yi Jian is not as exaggerated as dominating both offensive and defensive ends, but he did help the team withstand the counterattack of the Timberwolves. The Supersonics stabilized when Durant's touch fluctuated.

Why do many strong teams need at least two stars, that is, when one does not perform well, the other can cover the bottom line.

When Durant adjusts his touch back, the Supersonics will have no problem at all.

With their joint efforts, no matter how difficult Jefferson is, the Timberwolves have no chance of turning over.

At 111:102, the Sonics beat their rebuilding partner in the West.

[Help the team win the game, beat the Timberwolves rookie Corey Brewer, and reward steals +1. 】

Since March, the Sonics have 7 consecutive away games, and there are two back-to-back away games.

That is to say, they don't need to worry about the playoffs, otherwise they really have to consider the consumption of players.

The Sonics didn't have a great March schedule, but as long as they only need to develop young people, it's not a big problem.

On March 3, the back-to-back away game against the opponent Pistons.

The Pistons are definitely a strong team, but the Sonics are not afraid of them.

Playing the Pistons is similar to playing the Spurs, just rely on the stars to solve the problem.

Because without Duncan, the Pistons are actually not as difficult to deal with as the Spurs.

A talented team like the Supersonics cannot be left with common sense.

They can restrain their weak teams and they can also defeat them. They cannot limit the two strong points of Yi Jian and Durant, and a strong team like the Pistons can't take advantage of them.

This is also the tragedy of a strong civilian team. Sometimes it is difficult to beat a weak team with stars.

After the game started, strange scenes appeared.

Not only did Yi Jian and Durant play at the same time, but Watson was also in good shape.

It is also because the Pistons put more defensive attention on Yi Jian during the pick-and-roll.

In fact, when partnering with Yi Jian, defenders will have opportunities, but it is difficult for Watson and others to fully grasp it.

On the other hand, when the Supersonic defenders are in good condition, the Supersonic attack is basically unstoppable.

"It's really not an illusion. After the All-Stars, Yi Jian and Durant have become more and more fierce."

"Strong, it seems that the Sonics are about to rise after rebuilding for one season."

"With Yi Jian's strength, if he goes to a playoff team, he will definitely have a chance to help the team chase the championship."

"Either Rasheed Wallace or McDyess can't stop Yi Jian. Yi Jian is a big man with guard speed. It's too buggy."

"The Supersonics are too bad overall. It's a pity that we won't see Yi Jian in the playoffs."

"Haha, Emperor Yi still has the Olympics."

"Watching the ball, don't get too far away. It's cool to see Yi Jian's strong performance in front of a strong team."

"Yes, it's so cool. I used to be a little scared watching Chinese players' games, but watching Yi Jian is really cool."

Like previous teams, the Pistons didn't recover until the rotation period.

This is the case with the Sonics. If Yi Jian and Durant are one less, the offensive end will be affected.

And they can't defend well, and it's normal to have problems during the rotation.

In fact, at the very beginning, they couldn't rotate, and it was only when Sczerbiak came to the state that he flourished.

It was also because of Szczerbiak's performance that the Supersonics were able to throw out his big contract.

When Yi Jian sat on the sidelines, he clearly saw the team's problems.

Under the defense of the Pistons, the Sonics' offense is getting worse and worse.

Watson played super-level before, but after returning to normal, he couldn't handle it.

Yi Jian said to himself that he must maintain efficiency.

The inside line of the Pistons is their weak link.

The current Pistons rebounds and inside moves are not good, he must seize the opportunity.

After returning to the court again, Yi Jian began to catch the ball a little further outside.

Breaking through with the ball head-on, he can break through to the three-second zone without receiving the ball near the three-second zone.

Pistons head coach Saunders also saw the situation, he reacted fairly quickly, and immediately reduced the playing time of Wallace and McDyess, allowing the younger Max Hill and Amir Johnson to exchange swords.

They can keep up with Yi Jian's footsteps, and the situation will be better.

It's just that these two young fours haven't had that much experience yet, and the key is that they can't attack at all.

So even if the Pistons allowed Yi Jian to score less points, it might not be a good thing.

For the Pistons to make a difference, they still have to do better on the offensive end.

At this time, the importance of experience was reflected again. Billups and Hamilton had been adjusting all the time. At the end of the first half, they finally felt better.

After their shooting percentage improved, the Sonics were finally in real trouble.

"Try to give me the ball, trust me." Yi Jian said to his teammates.

"With the opponent's lineup in order, the Pistons may be the only strong team we have a chance to beat this season. We must work harder."

"Everyone, don't worry. If you want to improve, you have to fight against strong teams. If we lose, we don't feel ashamed. If we win, we may be able to increase our value by virtue of our performance. After all, we can't make it to the playoffs, so we will compete with the playoffs every time. Think of the confrontation between the teams in the game as our playoffs."

Yi Jian's words made some players' blood boil.

Some old fritters will definitely not be so excited, but it is enough. As long as a few of the main players cooperate, Yi Jian has the confidence to smash the Pistons' inside line.

Playing again, Yi Jian faced Rasheed Wallace again.

Roaring Tianzun, who performed poorly in the first half, sprayed it in the third quarter.

It's not a good word, it's just a dirty word in the market, and it keeps saying non-stop.

Yi Jian still needs to be a bit cheeky in this regard, at most he will say something when he is excited, and more often he will talk trash to make the other party's mentality.

Durant is proud, and Yi Jian is also very proud.

He has rebirth experience and the help of cheats, so if he can only be ordinary, then don't mess around.

"Hehe, old guy, your legs are no different from those of disabled people, you can't keep up with me."

"You'd better just sit on the sidelines and retire. Tell your head coach to replace younger players earlier, just like in the first half. Although they can't guard me, they can at least keep up."

"You, absolutely not!"

Rashid was furious, but just like what Yi Jian said, he couldn't guard against it.

Yi Jian broke through from beside him again, completely dunking.

McDyess inside had no time to help defend, he moved slower than Wallace.

Rashid spit dirty work more urgently, but he knew very well in his heart that even if he had a rest, he had made enough preparations during the intermission, but if he couldn't keep up with Yi Jian's movement, he couldn't keep up.

He is old.

Before halfway through the third quarter, Wallace got fouled twice on Yi Jian.

He was also selected as an All-Star this season, but just because there is no one in the East, his strength is no longer at the All-Star level.

It is the fate of a veteran to have talented people come out from generation to generation.
