New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 217 Swallowing the First Defeat
After the extra penalty was hit steadily, the audience burst into exclamation.Zhang Yi shook his head and seemed helpless. It was the first time for many fans to see him being forced into this state on the field...

When the Lakers attacked, they decisively handed over to Zhang Yi.Facing Curry, he didn't use any fake moves, and he went right to the basket based on his speed.

As soon as his gear was put on, his speed immediately surpassed the audience.Little Curry is already an extremely fast guard, but his explosive power in an instant failed to catch up with Zhang Yi.

Moreover, he suddenly started without any preparatory actions, and the spring still needs to be compressed to store energy, but Zhang Yi unexpectedly lowered his head, and reached the maximum speed in an instant with a big stride!
Seeing that he seemed to be empty under the Warriors basket, he directly smashed and returned the ball with one palm, and the audience became excited, because compared to Curry's experience and skills, everyone obviously prefers watching the live-action version of Fast and Furious!
Zhang Yi turned his head and shook his head at Xiao Curry, indicating that he couldn't guard himself.Just like the latter did the same after the penalty hit just now.

Seeing this scene, Curry also smiled.He has not enjoyed this one-on-one process for a long time. Invincible is very lonely. The appearance of Zhang Yi just made him interested in basketball.

Looking back, Curry used the same acceleration to go to the right, although the speed was obviously not as fast as Zhang Yi.But his advantage lies in the change of speed, and the magical rhythm helps him hit another ball.

This back-and-forth attack excited the audience, including the online fans in the live broadcast.There are not many chances for their duel.This kind of confrontation is really one less time to watch.

Therefore, although it was not broadcast live across the United States, the online audience also broke the historical record.Especially when the scene enters a two-person battle.

Zhang Yi turned his head and first changed direction in front of his body. After passing Xiao Curry's center of gravity, he immediately stepped back and scored a three-pointer!
"You want to compete with me for three points?" Hearing this, Zhang Yi laughed immediately, "Who doesn't know that you are the number one shooter in history?"

Little Curry also laughed, he didn't regard this as a game, it was completely a private duel between the two of them.Of course it's so interesting how to fight.

The offense of the two teams is no longer organized at all, because no matter what, they are both singles.Their strength can come and go to mark the rest of the time.

Although the 'black hole' state was not activated, Zhang Yi did show all his strength.Although Curry has declined a bit from his peak period, his current experience + skills have also tended to be perfected!

No matter how strong Zhang Yi will become in the future, at least at this moment, Curry's strength still has the upper hand.He can defend Zhang Yi's goal based on experience, but the latter has basically nothing to do.

The Warriors gradually took the initiative. For the first time, Zhang Yi felt that there was a problem with his physical fitness, because defending against such a strong opponent in this way was too exhausting for himself!
Although he is now recognized as the number one point guard, he can also play as a small forward at a historical level. This is where Curry is so powerful and terrifying...

After three quarters, the Lakers led by Zhang Yi fell behind again. Although it was only five points, this was the first time he tried his best and still fell behind for a few minutes.

"Here is the towel, calm down!" Wacker threw the towel on Zhang Yi's face.The latter covered his face with it, panting heavily!

"You're tired. There are many monsters in this alliance, and the fun game is about to begin!" Wacker said with a smile. He didn't worry about his disciple's self-confidence being frustrated at all, because he himself is the scariest one when it comes to monsters!
Warriors bench coach House said the same thing as Wacker.Curry wiped his sweat with satisfaction.He hasn't shown this smile for a long time.

Little Curry is that kind of natural competitor. Unlike his father's gentle leader, he does not tolerate any stronger existence, so he has been able to dominate the NBA for so many years!

Although Zhang Yi's performance is still a little immature, it is obvious that he has a chance to become the next greatest!Little Curry found the thrill of challenge again.

"Do you still want to play?" House said in his ear.Little Curry shook his head, "Let's stop playing today. I hope the professor this time can give him some inspiration!"

It's not interesting if the game is cleared all at once. Anyway, this is also a preseason game, and winning or losing doesn't mean anything.In his opinion, it is better to save the real happiness for the regular season or playoffs!
Zhang Yi leaned on the bench and entered a short meditation state.The moment of one-on-one with Curry repeatedly flashed in his mind, and the gap in strength between the two became clearer...

Even Michael Jordan wasn't born great, and he fell to the Detroit Pistons' Bad Boys several times.Only players who can complete learning, growth, and strengthening can approach the most perfect state!
Jordan did it back then!LeBron James did it!Curry did it!Now it's Zhang Yi's turn...

Wacker didn't bother Disciple and didn't send him in the fourth quarter.In the end, both teams finished the game with semi-substitutes. Although the Lakers made consecutive shots to tie the ball with Robert's outstanding performance, they still failed to turn around and win.

After three consecutive victories in the preseason, they were finally defeated by the defending champion.No matter the performance of the Lakers in this game is still remarkable.

In particular, Zhang Yi had the courage to face-to-face with Curry in the third quarter, although his performance was slightly inferior.But one is a rookie, and the other has been the overlord of the league for several years. Everyone thinks it is okay to be able to play like this.

Robert and Wally also performed well. The former scored the second highest score of the team other than Zhang Yi, with 28 points and 12 assists.

And Wally still sent 15 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks against the South American giants!

Jaina, who was sitting on the sidelines, also saw the shortcomings of the team from this game, and the lineup is what she has to consider.The Lakers' salary also has room to operate, and it is entirely possible to introduce a competent forward rotation.

Of course, Wacker will not make any demands. After all, as a head coach, he must play his cards well, and for him, this lineup is definitely enough to hit the championship...

The characteristics of Zhang Yi have not yet been used. More importantly, he is a player with a strong learning ability and an unpredictable upper limit.Even Wacker was terrified by this.

It was a long time after the game ended before Zhang Yi took off the towel on his head and stood up. Although the court was empty, he still acted like a lunatic, imitating the moment when the ball was intercepted just now.

"If I don't do this, it's fine..." I saw him dribbling the ball with his hand, pulling his back foot back, and then leaning back to make a shot. At that moment, Curry's sudden steal could be resolved.

Zhang Yi then sat on the ground and laughed, "Basketball is really fun! Little Curry, next time we meet, I won't lose again!"
