Chapter 13 Phoenix Suns

Atkins seized the opportunity again and scored the sixth point of the field.

This guy is really capable, with basketball in hand, I have the world.

Kobe was running beside him just now, and he didn't pass the ball.

Attack the black hole, and when the ball is in his hands, don't expect him to spit it out.

Fortunately, he scored.

Or Kobe would have hacked him.

30: 38.

"Holyshit, what a block! By Ye~~~again!"

Excited, the DJ couldn't help but swear.

The Los Angeles fans were even more jubilant. During this period, Ye Heping played an active and beautiful defense, blocking one shot and one steal in a short period of time.

This is when defending "The Truth" Paul Pierce.

"Ye! Ye! Ye!"

“L.A. Tough Guys!”

"Fuck Lukai to death!"

……

The battle between Lukai and Zijin, such an old enemy, made the people of Los Angeles even more crazy.

But they seem to have forgotten that half a minute ago, they were still yelling for Ye Heping to get out.

Pierce stood there blankly, feeling a little stuffy in his chest.

What the DJ said again (once again) hit him hard, which means that he has been blocked by Ye Heping twice.

How could this be?
In comparison, Ye Heping's defensive skills are much worse than "Little Prince" Prince, but Prince has never even capped Pierce.

Bystanders are clear.

The reason why Pierce did this was because he underestimated the enemy and didn't take Ye Heping seriously.

The authorities are fascinated.

Pierce still couldn't figure it out, he couldn't let go of his status as a superstar, and he gritted his teeth to beat Ye Heping.

In the next round, Pierce continued to ask for the ball.

If Pierce really fights, Ye Heping will definitely be unstoppable.But Kobe played a role,

As a top defender, Kobe's awareness of assisting defense is needless to say, Pierce's mentality can be seen at a glance, and he is constantly harassing.

With Kobe's help, Ye Heping felt much more relaxed. He used his long arms to press down from time to time, which made Pierce a little embarrassed, and even made two mistakes.

Using this time, the Lakers quickly chased points.

At halftime, it was tied at 46:46.

The Celtics were blown up in the second quarter, and Pierce's offensive efficiency was low, which made the entire Celtics team unable to play.

But after the start of the third quarter, Pierce adjusted his mentality, a superstar is a superstar.

He no longer insists on going his own way, but gives more offensive opportunities to Payton and Davis, and he gives them space.

At this time, Ye Heping seemed redundant.

The main reason is that the offensive end can't provide any contribution, and Pierce even emptied Ye Heping, so he couldn't defend.

Basketball is a 5-on-5 sport. When Ye Heping was emptied, the Lakers became 4-on-5, and the offense was deadlocked.

After 3 minutes, Tang Shuai replaced Butler.

When Ye Heping left the field, he received a lot of cheers, and the Los Angeles fans still recognized his performance.

At the end of the third quarter, 60:66, the Lakers fell behind.

In the fourth quarter, Kobe, who had been determined for three quarters, finally broke out, with a dunk after the breakthrough, a picturesque fallback, and an unreasonable three-pointer.

Once Kobe opened it, it really wasn't something that one person could guard against.

The Celtics sent Pierce and Davis to double-team, but it was still ineffective. Kobe still made a shot even though his vision was completely covered.

Relying on Kobe's restraint, the other four Lakers also played one after another.

At this moment, the outcome of the game is doomed.

90: 85.

At the last moment, Kobe made two unreasonable fallbacks one after another, and the Celtics had no chance.

这一战，科比前三节15投4中，最后一节11投9中，拿下30分4篮板4助攻。

Pierce was the complete opposite. At the beginning, he made 6 of 5 shots. After Ye Heping played, he made 17 of 4 shots and scored 23 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.

叶和平出战13分钟，3篮板1抢断2盖帽，得分依然是0。

The marginal man Green played 15 minutes, scored 7 points and 1 steal, and showed a provocative look at Ye Heping when he was off the field.

The other three marginal players have been eliminated, Ye Heping and Green are the final contenders, and only one can stay with the Lakers.

……

After the game, Ye Heping keenly found that Atkins' attitude towards him was much better, perhaps because he ate several basketball meals of his own.

Vujacic was still upset at Ye Heping.

Kobe is busy, with a lot of commercial endorsements to juggle.Ye Heping continued to ask Divac to train himself.

CIC and dribbling are the main items.

After a few days of shooting training, Ye Heping's shooting percentage is getting higher and higher, and the guarantee is already 10 of 7, and sometimes he can hit all of them.

However, during the team training, Ye Heping still hesitated and dared not shoot.

Three days later, the Lakers flew to Phoenix for an away game against the Suns.

In the morning, I had a tactical class in the rented basketball hall and then disbanded.

But Divac found Ye Heping alone, and a secret conversation took place between the two.

This conversation had a profound impact on Ye Heping.

……

8 p.m., America West Center Arena.

The Lakers are still the regular lineup: Mehm, Odom, Butler, Kobe, Atkins.

This side of the sun.

Center: Stoudemire.

Forwards: Marion, Joe Johnson.

Backcourt: Quentin Richardson, Steve Nash.

Seeing this lineup, Rudy Tomjanovich couldn't help but shook his head: "The Suns are really not getting better every year. Last year they won 29 wins and 53 losses. I'm afraid they won't exceed 20 wins this year."

Tang Shuai's statement is naturally well-founded.

In this era that emphasizes big men and insiders are king, the Suns actually put on such a short lineup.

The tallest Stoudemire in the sun is 208 centimeters, which is the height of other power forwards.

Marion is 201 centimeters, Joe Johnson is 201 centimeters, Richardson is 198 centimeters, and Nash is 191 centimeters.

How to defend the restricted area?No more rebounds?

For an old-school coach like Tang Shuai, it is unacceptable.

There is another point. Over the past few years, the Suns' No. 1 position has been in turmoil.

From Kidd to Marbury, and then from Marbury to Nash, although they are all All-Star players, they are not as good as one.

Kidd is already recognized as one of the best point guards in the league, with top organizational and defensive abilities.

Marbury's leadership ability is average, but his personal ability is the best.

As for Nash, he is obviously not as good as the previous two.

Before he came to the Suns, he was only the third head of the Mavericks, with Finley and Nowitzki in front of him.

The statistics are mediocre, the defense is flawed, and his playing is superficial. He only wants to be beautiful, but not practical.

This is Tang Shuai's impression of Nash.

I'm afraid it is also the opinion of most coaches on Nash.

Therefore, Tang Shuai has regarded the Suns as a big team, and most of the Lakers players think so.

Realizing this, Ye Heping was very worried.

As a time traveler, Ye Heping was well aware of Nash's ability.

Kidd is great, Marbury is very strong, but they are all younger brothers in front of Nash.

Two consecutive regular season MVPs, superstar-level scoring ability, and historical-level organizational ability, these are the labels Nash should have.

If I remember correctly, this season, when the vast majority of the team has not changed, Nash will turn the 29-53 Suns into a 60-22 regular season leader and a championship-level team.

Ye Heping wanted to remind his teammates and Tang Shuai, but he knew his status, and no one would believe him when he said it.

In desperation, Ye Heping can only remind Kobe who has a good relationship, hoping that Kobe can alert the whole team.

"This sun is very strong, be careful!"

Kobe smiled: "I never underestimate any opponent, as long as I play, I have to go all out!"

Ye Heping was in admiration for a while, he deserves to be the boss, among other things, the competitive spirit is really a role model for everyone.

The conversation between the two was also heard by other teammates. Vujacic snorted, while the other teammates smiled casually, not taking Ye Heping's words seriously at all.

A rookie is a rookie, and he can't even see the situation clearly.

Green took the opportunity to communicate with other teammates, hurting Ye Heping.

As the two are direct competitors, Green often engages in these small tricks during this time, slandering Ye Heping behind his back.

Are people named Green so disgusting?
