Simpkins' defense restrained most of the league's forward players, but it doesn't mean that he can clamp down on opponents with diverse offensive methods like Zhang Yi throughout the game.

If Simpkins is like Erlang God, then Zhang Yi is like Sun Wukong. He controlled the first half, and now it's time for Zhang Yi to shine.

The Spurs coach originally wanted to test Zhang Yi's power, and by the way, lay a foundation for Simpkins' popularity. After all, many commentators now habitually ignore this 'mechanical killer' when discussing the league's best player. Now it's absolutely great to use Curry's successor as a stepping stone.

What followed was a battle between the two of them. The Los Angeles Lakers' offense was entirely in the hands of Zhang Yi, who had tested many lineups, but it was clear that the depth of this team could not activate the true strength of Zhang Yi, Robert and Vali.

Having them play together may not even be as effective as the three of them playing in tandem or alone. Defensive players like Simpkins and Tate are also the time to test these two offensive strengths.

Robert has proven that his current offense is not enough to break through Tate's defense, and Zhang Yi has become the last hope for the Los Angeles Lakers. WACKER didn't just say that he would play alone, but it didn't matter, he had already seen everything he wanted to see in this match.

The audience obviously prefers to watch the two superstars face off, so the live atmosphere, which has not been very hot, gradually heats up.

Zhang Yi shook Simpkins again and made a jump shot, and the fans of Xiao Yi, the 'Oriental Vegetable God' at the scene, also began to scream, because he suppressed the first half, and now such a stable offensive performance is his original strength.

Simpkins frowned, and he could tell that he was not happy with his defense. Although he can still beat Zhang Yi in the attack.

As the league's last one-on-one defender, he knows what defenders think so he can always shoot at the most appropriate time and in the right state, which also makes his shooting percentage extremely high.

Entering the third quarter, Zhang Yi, who originally only scored 10 points, suddenly broke out 12 minutes later and scored 18 points. Simpkins was just as efficient and lethal, scoring 36 points in the third quarter. But it can be seen that he can't prevent Zhang Yi from making him very unhappy.

The scores of the two teams also rose alternately, and the audience was also very happy to watch, so they didn't pay attention to any tactical confrontation. Buying a ticket to enter the venue to see is just a celebrity attack.

When Zhang Yi knocked over the Spurs' inside line with a slam dunk, the audience erupted in deafening applause. Simpkins was helpless, how could the opponent suddenly perform so strong when he didn't enter that special state?

"It seems that Zhang Yi has found his state!" James sat on the sidelines and said to Wang Lung beside him, they had made a bet before that which of the two would get the highest score in this game. He also thought that Wang Lung would definitely choose Zhang Yi, but he didn't expect that the person who bet on the highest score of this Oriental kid in the game turned out to be himself.

"But Zhang Yi is only 28 points now, he can't guard against Simpkins, and you must lose the final bet." Wang Lung said indifferently. "Hey, don't forget, it's your apprentice who plays on the field."

James was a little puzzled, because Long had always been not very confident in Zhang Yi today, which was obviously a bit abnormal. They didn't fly all the way to San Antonio to see such a dreary scene, and now the game is a little interesting. And no one in the entire basketball circle knows about these two secretly watching the game.

Neither Zhang Yi nor Simpkins could help anyone, and the situation did not end until the fourth quarter. Because Zhang Yi's body is finally hot enough.

I saw that when he faced Simpkins' attack, he finally turned on the 'black hole mode' again. The opponent immediately felt that something was wrong, and the one who was going to break through just now immediately stopped his steps. But Zhang Yi's body moved first, and his hand suddenly appeared on the path of Simpkins' ball control for some reason, and he made a successful steal in an instant like lightning!

"Damn, that's what characteristic? It's so strong! Zhang Yi rushed forward after breaking the ball, and Simpkins didn't chase after him because he knew that speed was not his forte.

I saw Zhang Yi jump up after crossing the free throw line, and his body seemed to take off in the air...... With a bang, one of his giant palms slammed into the frame!

Half of the audience stood up and cheered, because a dunk of this quality is not something you can see in ordinary games. And there are not many white people in the whole league who can dance so well, not to mention that Zhang Yi is still a yellow race!

"Awesome! Yi, you've finally woken up! Vali excitedly raised his hand to high-five Zhang Yi, who said with a smile, "It's not too late to warm up." ”

Simpkins deliberately bumped Zhang Yi's chest, "Don't think I'm going to admit defeat, come again!" Hearing this, Zhang Yi became cold, "I was about to say that you don't just admit defeat casually......"

James pushed Wang Lung beside him, "See." I bet on Zhang Yi is definitely right, they are only 6 points away now, two three-point things! ”

Wang Lung shook his head, thinking to himself why this old guy was so interested in Zhang Yi, there was something wrong with it. "I said you don't pay attention to your grandson, what the hell is it to run here to watch Zhang Yi's competition?"

The reason why I say this is because Wang Lung knew that James's son had specially invited them to participate in the first battle of James III today.

This James III is much worse than his grandfather and father, and it was entirely by virtue of his family's fame that he was selected by the Trail Blazers in the first round. Although the preseason has been played for a long time, the star has not played because of a finger contusion.

Today's game against the Orleans Hornets was his debut, but it was clear that James had little interest in the little grandson, and in order to avoid the nagging of his family, he deliberately flew Wang Lung straight to San Antonio.

Zhang Yi continues to use the 'black hole mode' on the court, although his body is still in the overdraft stage. But with Tony's help, he can already extend the use time to about five minutes. And it doesn't continue to strain the body.

In the face of such Zhang Yi, Simpkins suddenly became the one who had no choice, he was stealed and blocked, and was completely killed by the opponent on the offensive end.

The Spurs head coach also doesn't call a timeout, because there's nothing to adjust. Once Zhang Yi broke out, he was unable to stop it. This can be seen in his battle with 'Rush' Thomas.

Before the end, Zhang Yi hit a three-pointer, which not only took away the victory of the game, but also increased his personal score to 40 points, and surpassed Simpkins to become the best player of the game.

And everyone can see that Zhang Yi, who is in form, is one level stronger than Simpkins......

"Damn, what the hell is going on?" Simpkins couldn't figure out why Thomas was able to understand so quickly and not himself. "God knows!" Zhang Yi replied with a smile, the Los Angeles Lakers have added another win!
