Chapter 192: The Age of the Guard

The frenetic home atmosphere at the Toyota Center made Sun Yi feel as if he was back in the NCAA arena. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chris. Paul attacks with the ball and wants to break through Kyle. Lowry was blocked by his opponent with a tough defense. The Hornets core was not discouraged and immediately let teammate Tyson. Chandler came out to make a pick-and-roll.

Due to the high quality of the Hornets center's off-ball screen, Lowry could only watch Paul face Yao Ming who came from the switch. A skilful cross-step break, Queen Bee deftly escaped the frontal defense of the opponent's super center. When he got to the free throw line, Chris had a chance to shoot. Paul, for some reason, hesitated and didn't make a move.

At this momentary pause, Battier, who was entangled with Stojakovic near the baseline, immediately came to help. Faced with the unfavorable situation of front and back, the league's best point guard made an ornamental improvisation in the middle of the march.

The right hand holding the ball looked like it was about to go to the basket, but it disappeared in an instant in front of everyone's eyes. Don't look at the pass from behind the person!

The former league three-point champion who received an accurate pass from his teammates faced this good opportunity like training and steadily hit a three-point in the bottom corner!

34 to 32! The Hornets, who were playing away, took a surprise lead halfway through the second quarter.

Sun Yi, who was focusing on the game itself on the sidelines, had long forgotten his original intention of coming to cheer for the national team's big brother today, and was immersed in this high-level playoffs and couldn't extricate himself.

After watching Paul's performance just now, the arrogant Chinese guy could only shake his head and smile bitterly with a sigh. The current basketball realm of the Hornets queen bee is indeed several levels higher than herself, especially as a point guard.

In fact, Paul's dazzling breakthrough sharing technique can be easily completed with Sun Yi's current level of passing and control. The only thing that convinced the Knicks was that after the opponent failed to break through Lowry, he immediately organized the next wave of effective offensives.

Start calling Tyson from Paul. When Chandler pulled out from the inside to block the pick-and-roll, he had already calculated every next step of the reaction.

That is, Sun Yi combined with the fact that he had just seen it, so he could understand why Paul missed that fleeting shooting opportunity. Because, he did it on purpose.

First of all, although the Rockets center Yao Ming was temporarily eliminated, it is still possible to use the height advantage to make an effective defense. The soul player of the Hornets, who felt that this opportunity was not too good, pretended to hesitate and caused the super defensive sense of Batyr to arrive in time.

Before the opponent was about to form a trap, Paul used an unexpected pass to send the cannonball to the team's teammate's most confident three-point teammate. In the face of undisturbed shooting opportunities, Croatian veteran Stojakovic will never let go easily.

It's horrible! That's what the best point guard in the league qualifies in!

While Sun Yi was amazed by Paul's basketball intelligence, he also admired the unimpressive Rockets backup point guard. If it weren't for Lowry's tenacious defense, opponents might not have actively sought out teammates' pick-and-rolls to avoid him.

Don't look at the Hornets under Paul's organization, complete a very beautiful and efficient positional battle coordination. But Queen Bee has lost momentum in the confrontation with Team Rocket's nobody.

It's impossible for any one player to beat up all the opposing opponents in a game, and Jordan didn't do that. However, as the leader of the team, you should not choose to run away from the toughest opponents.

Some people may think that Paul's choice is reasonable rather than evasive, but Sun Yi still has some different views. Just like Kobe Bryant did to himself this season, in fact, Sun Yi also knows that under his defense, the league's first quarterback Lakers' number one star is not comfortable. But the other party gritted his teeth and defeated himself face to face. After the game, there is a feeling - serve!

Of course, each player's personality and upbringing are different, which makes their style of play and style of play very different. In competitive sports, there is no distinction between good and bad, only success or defeat.

Rockets head coach Adelman called a timeout immediately after the Hornets took the lead, as the team had not been able to score for three minutes in a row.

After the timeout, Brooks, who had been sitting on the bench for more than ten minutes, finally got a chance to prove himself again. The Rockets' new starting point guard, nicknamed 'Little Potato', lived up to the coach's trust.

An extremely difficult three-point jumper in the opposing core Chris. Paul hit a header to put the team back in the lead.

Immediately after, David. West misses mid-range shot. Yao Ming took the rebound in the backcourt, and a long pass found Brooks who was fast down.

Catch, step, jump, shoot! Hit!

The 'little potato' who is a little crazy hits the chase three points again!

Steals! Brooks, who snatched the ball from Queen Bee Paul, used a wonderful one-stop fast attack to open up the score of the two teams while also making the fans on the scene go crazy!

This alliance is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger! Any role player can decide the outcome of a game at some point!

……

107 to 90!

After beating the New Orleans Hornets, the Houston Rockets broke through the nightmare of the first round of the playoffs.

Yao Ming, a super center who played a stable game, scored 22 points and 16 rebounds in the whole game, which can be called the biggest contributor to the team's victory. But Sun Yi, who watched the whole game at the scene, still remembers the duel between Brooks and Lowry challenging Queen Bee Paul.

Defenders who have the majority of the ball can not only control the team's tempo, but also choose the direction of attack, and even make choices diametrically opposed to the coach's tactics according to the situation on the field. The only premise is that the ball must be scored. In this way, point guards with a certain amount of individual offensive ability have become the darlings of this league and fans. Like Brooks, who played well today, he is enjoying the cheers of the fans on the sidelines at the moment!

This is an era of defenders, and it is also the most suitable era for Sun Yi!

……

Zhang Lili, who came down from the live broadcast room in advance to interview, looked at the reporters who were surrounded by Yao Ming on the third floor and the outer three floors, and simply grabbed the Knicks Tanhua Show who was about to leave with his girlfriend and chatted.

"Xiao Yi! Don't be in a hurry! Tell the fans across the country about this gentle and beautiful lady next to you! "The old man, who had just finished his work as a consultant for the Suns Cup National Middle School League in China, crossed the ocean to the United States to participate in the commentary of the Rockets playoffs without any break.

After Sun Yi whispered the other party's question to his girlfriend in English, it immediately drew a series of silver bell-like laughter from Tamara. After all, what girl would be unhappy to hear someone else's compliment?

"This is my girlfriend Tamara. Abald. In the face of this Chinese basketball veteran who is loved by countless fans, the extremely popular Chinese basketball genius does not dare to make a mistake.

"It is estimated that domestic fans can't wait to start all kinds of doxing searches, so let everyone save some effort and take this opportunity to introduce girlfriends to fans." When the old man saw this scene, while admiring Sun Yi's thoughtfulness towards his girlfriend, he simply asked questions directly in English.

"Well, she's also a basketball player who represented the Spanish women's basketball team at the Capital Olympics last year and is currently studying for college in Houston......"

"Hey! This feeling is good! I hope you can help each other on the road of basketball, and go further and further......" Director Zhang's words, the more he listened, the more like the leader's greetings at the domestic wedding.

“……”

The Spanish girl, who has always had a quirky personality, heard this with two cute red clouds on her face.

Guiding Zhang, who found that he was a little off-topic, immediately changed the topic.

"The Knicks had a bit of a bad regular season this year, what are your plans for next year's game?"

It's unlucky, it's completely unlucky. The old man's euphemistic statement did not make Sun Yi forget the facts. In his heart, he never complained about any of his teammates, but put all the responsibility on his shoulders. If I could be stronger, I wouldn't have similar regrets......

"This off-season, I plan to use a two-month special training session to improve myself in all aspects."

Sun Yi's firm expression and tone made Director Zhang, who had read countless people, secretly praise in his heart: Good job!

In various sports fields, there are many rising stars who quickly become popular every year. With the rise of fame, countless off-the-field temptations will take the initiative to come to the door. If you can't hold on to your dreams, then it's just one more meteor that once crossed the sky......

……

Yao Ming, a super center who led the team through the nightmare of the first round of the playoffs, felt the underground parking lot of the Toyota Center non-stop after attending the post-game press conference on an errand. Because, the younger brother of the national team is still waiting for his family dinner.

Yao Ming, who has become an iconic figure in Houston, also has a 'Yao restaurant' in the city center that covers a large area, but he still specially greeted his little brother and his girlfriend in the national team at home.

A table of authentic Shanghainese delicacies made the Spanish girl full of praise, and Sun Yi, as a northerner, could only pick some targets with heavier flavors and salty dishes.

Yao Ming, his parents, wife, Sun Yi, and Tamara are all basketball players, and the topic of dinner is also indispensable. Da Yao's mother is very grateful to Sun Yi for introducing a high-level sports expert to her son at the beginning of the season, so as to avoid the risk of injury to the greatest extent, which is why Yao Ming has such an excellent performance this year.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world! Yao's mother, who was doing things at home, how could Sun Yi not hear the meaning of her words. Now the Snyders' sports rehabilitation center has made a name for itself in the American professional basketball world. There are many professional athletes who come here every day, and many players on the Bulls team that Sun Yi knows will regularly go to check their bodies and make nutritious diets, including his friend Rose.

It is not realistic to want Mr. Snyder to become Yao Ming's personal sports adviser. Because it was his mother's own opinion, Yao Ming, who didn't know anything in advance, had to tell Sun Yi with his eyes, just listen to it and don't care.

The warm atmosphere of the whole dinner did not change because of this little episode, and everyone who was full of wine and food chatted in the living room for a while after the meal. Seeing that the time was not early, Sun Yi wrapped a big red envelope for the eldest brother of the national team, and then took his girlfriend to leave.

Tomorrow, he's back in Chicago to begin his offseason training journey. After completing this semester's course, Tamara will also return to her home country to participate in the Spanish women's basketball team's training camp to prepare for the European Championships.

No one knows how long the two will have to wait when they meet again, in order to dilute this parting sorrow, this pair of men and women in love frantically ask for each other in their nests......

……

On May 1, in addition to Yao Ming, who was fighting against the Mavericks on behalf of the Rockets, the other three members of the Chinese men's basketball team who played in the NBA gathered in Chicago, the 'Windy City'.

After the regular season, Sun Yi, Sun Yue, and Yi Jianlian made an appointment to conduct a two-month special training under the guidance of the Snyder and his wife sports rehabilitation center this summer.

Glenn and Zhang arrived in Chicago several days ahead of schedule to prepare the way for the trio. Due to the long duration of this special training, it is not the same thing to make do in the hotel every day. I simply rented a villa directly, with an indoor stadium, swimming pool, and gym. The rent for a fully functional high-end home like this is not cheap, at $50,000 a month.

But for Sun Yi, who has a net worth of more than 10 million, this expenditure is not in his eyes. However, at Yi Jianlian's insistence, the two shared the cost equally. After all, Sun Yue's contract for next season has not yet been settled.

Since joining the New York Knicks midway through the season, the Lakers have had a number of highlights, but inconsistent play is the biggest factor limiting Sun Yue's playing time. Watching the prestige and status of the national team's roommates in the team improve step by step, how can a handsome guy from Hebei with an excellent face embarrass his brother.

He was secretly determined, and he continued to improve himself in the training with Sun Yi every day during the season. I believe that as long as you persevere, one day you will usher in a moment of outbreak.

When Aozora dragged everyone to this villa in the northern suburbs of Chicago, the three professional players who played in the NBA were completely occupied by the mansion in front of them.

Damn, it's worth the money! Sun Yi and Yi Jianlian.

I'm rubbing, it's good to be rich! Sun Yue.

The three of them dragged their luggage and began to divide the bedroom, while Aozora went straight into the kitchen to prepare a hearty dinner for everyone. Because he knew that after today, these young men, who now seemed to be alive, would enter a hellish journey.

Before dinner, Glenn, who was familiar with the new equipment at the Snyders' Sports Rehabilitation Center, was just in time for dinner. Although he has always been at odds with Qingkong, the exquisite dishes cooked by the other party will always make Sun Yi's personal trainer full of praise.

Since Sun Yi and the three were selected for the Chinese men's basketball team for this year's Asian Championships, their training plan was divided into two parts throughout the offseason. The special training from May to July is the hardest and most important stage. From mid-August to mid-September, this month is considered a period of physical preparation for the new season.
