Chapter 184: Double Player of the Month

After resting and conditioning at the beginning of the season, Rocket center Yao Ming has now become an invincible existence in the league. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info plus the infinite surprise of the Knicks Flower Show, as well as the occasional outstanding performance of the tennis team Omae Yi Jianlian, set off a wave of basketball craze across the country.

The Chinese Football Professional League, which has always attracted the most attention from the Chinese people, has seen an endless stream of fake gambling incidents, which have made countless fans cry without tears, but also affected the choices of the younger generation.

Compared to the sparsely populated soccer field, the basketball courts in various schools are overcrowded, with children taking turns competing in waves. With the growth of the basketball population, there are more and more youth competitions in the country.

Comrade Enron, who has been increasingly valued by the leaders of the basketball management center, has finally come to show his strength. Under his leadership, national campus basketball competitions at all levels and ages are in full swing on the land of China.

Zhao Zhihao, a second-year junior high school student from the coastal city of Ludao in Dongshan Province, was born 14 years ago into an ordinary working family. Although his parents who work in the factory have an average income, as the only son in the family, he has been doing some things he likes since he was a child, just like other children.

Green Island is a well-known football city in the country, but Zhao Zhihao, who is tall and tall, likes to play on the basketball court in the family courtyard since he was a child. Years of perseverance have made him a leader among his peers.

Zhao Zhihao's Green Island No. XX Middle School is an old school with a basketball tradition. In this year's Sun Cup National Middle School Basketball League, sponsored by Chinese basketball genius and New York Knicks player Sun Yi, he successfully broke into the final quarterfinals.

The 1.80-meter-tall Green Island boy has a wide skeleton and a body of tendon meat, giving people a feeling as calm as a mountain. As the team's power forward, he faced many sports school students who were specially transferred from schools, and this basketball teenager who grew up on the wild court did not fall behind at all.

Because he has been playing with his uncles in the family yard for a long time, he has also practiced a good ball control technique as an outside player. Coupled with his physical advantage in standing out among his peers, Zhao Zhihao, who has an outstanding performance in the competition, has received the favor of many professional sports schools.

In the face of these generous invitations, the young and old Green Island boy did not hesitate at all, and refused them all one by one. Because, his dream is to follow in the footsteps of his idol Sun Yi and become an outstanding Chinese basketball player.

Zhao Zhihao, who led the team to the national quarterfinals, has basically locked in a member of the best team of this event and has become an invited student of idol Sun Yi's basketball training camp in Shencheng this summer. If you perform well in training camp, you will be appreciated by American coaches. There is also the possibility of getting a large basketball scholarship and being sent to the other side of the ocean to continue his studies.

The last reward is a temptation that cannot be refused for every Chinese teenager with a basketball dream. Because, the example of the success of their idol is right in front of you.

……

Zhang Lili, a famous basketball commentator, former Chinese men's basketball player and head coach, has been staying in China recently because he was invited to be the general consultant of the Sun Cup National Middle School Basketball League and the guest of the best team.

The focus game between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics, which was broadcast live on CCTV Sports Channel, also specially invited this old man who is loved by fans across the country.

Before the start of the game, the host Yu Jia, Zhang Lili and senior basketball commentator Su Skirt were in the studio to analyze the background and prediction of the game for the fans.

Due to the Knicks' recent hot form, everyone thinks it's a close matchup.

"Oops! Today's situation of Sun Yi is a bit not very good! "Seeing that at the beginning of the game, after the Celtics implemented a resolute trap tactic against the Chinese rookie, Zhang Lili, who has played basketball all his life, immediately smelled the smell of danger.

'It shouldn't be a big problem, there are only five players on both sides. If Sun Yi is guarded, then the other Knicks players will have more open opportunities. Su Skirt, an academic expert, is accustomed to analyzing this phenomenon theoretically.

……

The immersive Knicks scouting show, after the game started, obviously felt the unusual thing about this game. The Celtics were surprisingly resolute in their defensive strategy. Thankfully, the team's captains, Richardson and Chandler, had a good hand today, hitting back-to-back shots after they were caught in the air.

In defense, Sun Yi did not dare to be careless in the face of Rondo, who was inferior in height and weight. Although the opponent's shooting is unreliable, his breakthrough is still very distinctive.

At the end of the first quarter, the home team led the Knicks 21-20. Judging from the scoreline, both teams seem to play relatively normally.

To the surprise of many people, the Chinese rookie, who averaged 18 shots per game this season, actually made only one shot and did not hit in the first quarter of more than 8 minutes. That is, the 4 assists sent to his teammates, which can slightly hide Sun Yi's embarrassing performance.

In the studio of CCTV Sports Channel, a host and two commentators have offered advice to Chinese youngsters in the air.

"Sun Yi should be more decisive and vote when he has the opportunity." Yu Jia said.

"The Knicks' tactics were still on the right track, and there were a lot of open opportunities in the first quarter, but they didn't make any shots." Teacher Su Qun.

"I think we should still start with defensive rebounds, if there is no guarantee of backcourt rebounds, D'Antoni's fast-break tactics will be difficult to play, and Sun Yi's power will be greatly reduced." Zhang reasonable guidance.

The thoughts of these basketball people on the other side of the ocean, although the mustache did not hear it with his own ears, but with many years of coaching experience, how could he not have imagined it. It's just that the current strength of the team is limited, and there is no better way to do it as a coach. First, energy saving is on par with the opponent, which is already a good result.

Perkins though did not have Kwame. Brown is tall, but much stronger. Rivers gave him the task of today, which is to constantly fight hand-to-hand with the Knicks' main center, in order to reduce the control of the restricted area of the parallel import.

Big baby Glenn. Davis with David. Lee's counterpoint is basically equal, and Pierce, who is experienced in all aspects of technology, is not something that Chandler can handle now. There is also a thunder that slips without leaving a hand and runs erratically. Allen, who almost drove away captain Richardson crazy. Sun Yi, who only had a slight advantage, was unable to give full play to his ability to attack in positional warfare because of the opponent's tactics.

The Knicks coach, who has nothing to do, can only hope that the good hand of the other players today can help the Chinese youngsters get rid of the opponent's bag defense.

Sun Yi, who was resting on the bench, looked at the data of the first quarter of the game, and kept thinking about his own countermeasures. If you force a reluctant shot, then the hit rate is difficult to guarantee. Now the situation between the two sides is stalemate, and it is not yet time to take a risk.

Perhaps it was the intensity of the defense today, and the shooting percentages of both teams in the second quarter were average. And with the home team's tight defense, it's hard for the Knicks to launch the fast-break tactics they do best.

The race is like a pool of stagnant water, there is no wind and no waves.

45 to 41! At the end of the first half, Celtic continued to lead.

The Chinese teenager relied on two few fast-break opportunities to finally open his scoring account, scoring four points and two assists on two shots in the second quarter.

Although the Knicks are only four points behind for the time being, head coach D'Antoni has seen the crisis for his team. Harrington, the team's sixth man, once had a highlight-reel performance of seven consecutive points in the first half, and the mustache thought that the threatened home team would relax their defense against the Chinese youngster. Unexpectedly, the Celtics, under the instruction of coach Rivers, used continuous rotation defense to squeeze the offensive space created by Sun Yi for his teammates to the minimum as much as possible.

Although these young players in the Knicks have good potential, their current level is difficult to guarantee a consistent shooting percentage under a certain level of defensive pressure.

If you don't make any changes, sooner or later, the game will be worn to death by experienced opponents.

After a short halftime break, the match between the two teams started again.

In the third quarter of the game, the Knicks scouted the show and significantly strengthened their individual offense. In the face of the opponent's continuous bag defense, Sun Yi did play a few wonderful individual performances.

He first took a step outside the three-point line to face Ray Allen's marking, and hit a very difficult dry three-pointer. In the next round, the Chinese guy took advantage of the thunder. Allen and Pierce didn't close their packs, and used his super explosive power to pass through the gaps and get into the box to cause Parkinson to foul and score two more points with a free throw.

The Chinese rookie, who breathed a sigh of relief, hit two pull-up jump shots in a row in the middle of the third quarter with the help of his teammates' double-cover tactics, tying the score between the two sides in one fell swoop.

60 to 60!

Doug. Rivers was amazed at the Chinese player's individual prowess and immediately called a timeout.

"Wouldn't you feel ashamed of the green jersey for a rookie to score nine points in a row under your double bag?" The manager's questioning worked.

In the rest of the third quarter, Sun Yi, who had just scored a double-double, never got a decent shot again. 74 to 68! The lead is still the Clover.

The mustache, who has exhausted all his tricks, has no way to control the situation of his team's continuous fall. At this point, the Knicks coach can only pray that one of his players will be favored by God.

Those lofty gods always seemed very stingy in the face of mortals' requests and cries for help.

It's not that the visiting players have a particularly bad feel in this game, it's that they're very uncomfortable with the playoff-level defensive intensity of the Celtics. The further the game progressed, the more the Knicks' young lads felt suffocated. Add to that the frenetic atmosphere at TD North Shore Gardens, like Steve. Novak, Randolph. A player like Morris, who has never seen a big scene, even if he is sitting on the bench, his limbs will tremble uncontrollably.

When Sun Yi reappeared in the fourth quarter, the difference between the two sides had widened to as much as 12 points. Faced with such a precarious situation and the struggles of his teammates, the Chinese rookie, who was unwilling to accept defeat, started the crazy singles mode.

Oh no, it should be him alone to play the opponent's entire defense.

Bang!

As the shot hit the iron, the Chinese guy who tried two long-range shots in a row shook his head depressedly. The shooting percentage of one step outside the three-point line is indeed a bit unsatisfactory. However, as long as he comes to the three-point line, he will be caught by the opponent, which is purely helpless. It seems that this summer will have to develop its own range. Otherwise, it will be crazy to encounter such a competition in the future.

Sun Yi, who had a poor three-point hand, had to find a way to enter the opponent's penalty area in the later game. But he doesn't have an advantage in strength, and it's hard for him to fight his way out of the sword bush like some players with strong physical fitness.

The Knicks, who were restrained everywhere, only hit 3 shots in the fourth quarter, although they made 11 crazy shots. The team also lost 84-95 to their sworn enemy, ending their longest 10-game winning streak of the season.

The Chinese rookie, who scored 17 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists in the whole game, is not bad on paper, and his scores and assists are the first in the team. But a comparison of the 7-of-22 shooting efficiency with the season's 52 percent shooting percentage shows just how successful the Celtics' tactics were.

The only good news came from Indiana. The Chicago Bulls lost 105-107 to the Pacers. In this way, the gap between the two teams fighting for the last ticket to the playoffs remains the same.

……

Throughout the month of March, the biggest winner was the Houston Rockets. With Maddy out injured and main point guard Alston sent to the Magic, they had a 13-1 record in March.

Yao Ming, a super center who averaged 24 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks per game, was elected as the Western Conference Player of the Month for the third time in November 2006 and January 2008.

Although the New York Knicks lost to their arch-rivals Celtics in the final game in March. However, with a 12-2 record, they are behind the Rockets along with the star-studded Lakers and the Cavaliers led by the Emperor.

Chinese teenager Sun Yi, who averaged 29 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals and 1 block per game, also became the Eastern Conference Player of the Month as a rookie in a record.

You know, this honor even the basketball god Michael. Jordan and the Chosen One, LeBron. James didn't do it either. Of course, when the former entered the league, there was only one player of the month in the East and West divisions, and it was still very difficult to get this award from Bird, Johnson and others.

In any case, Chinese player Sun Yi used his outstanding performance to create his own history in the highest hall of basketball in the world.

Of course, the blessing in disguise after the gang-related incident also added a lot of impression points to the young Knicks Tanhua Show. Charles, who carefully planned the whole event. Kane, after knowing this news, I'm afraid it's time to buy new office furniture...... (To be continued.) )
