Chapter 272: Formal Duel
Having just left the Big Apple, everyone in the Lakers is a little uncomfortable with the cold AT&T center. In addition to a group of 'Oriental Vegetable God' Xiao Yi's deep fans on their bench, they will scream from time to time, and the whole court is cold, not like watching a passionate basketball game!
The battle between Zhang Yi and Simpkins' strongest new generation of small forwards is enough to attract attention. And this one is still one of the few preseason games with enough intensity to be in the regular season and maybe even the playoffs.
The opportunity to see these two superstars at half price is a must-see, and needless to say, viewers who book tickets in advance definitely earn it. The San Antonio Spurs, a traditional powerhouse, have a glorious period of two decades in a row to reach the playoffs.
Zhang Yi felt the meaning of the word legend in every place in this stadium with rich history. Floor 21 on the floor has been worn to the point of some handwriting, but the management here will not replace it. Because this is in the legendary superstar, the all-time number one striker 'Stone Buddha' Tim?? Duncan retired for twenty-one years to commemorate his replacement.
With the legend on his feet, he looked ahead at the number 21 jersey hanging high! Over the years, the city hasn't had many stars in its history. So many of their retired jerseys commemorate a championship or even a lot of role players who have made outstanding contributions to the team.
The fact itself is subtle enough. Every time the Celtics or the Lakers retire their jerseys, they are extremely cautious, and if they are not top stars, they are not at all, but just like that, they are also full of stars......
However, there are teams that are so shabby as the Spurs. If you want to say what makes this team different. That's the legendary coach and the one who can be called the one team of his life Popovich brings to the city.
Team! It's not sissy basketball, even if there's no passionate one-on-one, or less frequent sabre-rattling exchanges. So the core of the team is a low-key genius, but this is the spirit of team basketball!
At the beginning of the game, Vali faced the strong muscles of David, the main center of the Spurs with a height of 2.12 meters, which made people look reminiscent of the famous legendary center 'Admiral' David. Robinson. They even have the same name, but the strength of these two people is not comparable.
The San Antonio man won the ball. One of the big features of this Spurs team is also small forward Simpkins has possession of the ball. The defender is more of a goalscorer, and he only takes charge of the team when Simpkins is off the pitch.
The average small forward doesn't have the softer ball sense and big-picture vision of the Simpkins. This is also a headache for other teams, and the offensive rounds in which he initiates are always more difficult to defend.
Zhang Yi came up to him as soon as he came up, and such one-on-one defense is two concepts from yesterday's alignment. With the support of his teammates, Simpkins' strength has simply increased exponentially.
"Will you attack on your own? Or passing? Zhang Yi spread his extra-long arms to block in front of his opponent. What do you hope? Simpkins replied coldly, but his eyes were full of warlike anger!
After seeing his elegant dribble, the feints of his shoulders and wrists instantly took Zhang Yi's center of gravity away. He's a little too focused on his opponents, so it's easier to get shaken up in this state.
Simpkins strode into the crowd and swayed from side to side as if no one was in a no-man's land! When he jumped off and dunked, he even noticed Zhang Yi chasing behind him......
"How is this possible?!" Zhang Yi showed an incredible look in the air. The opponent actually stood up in the air, and changed from a dunk to a backhand layup.
This reaction speed and the strength of the body's muscles are simply terrifying! If his astonishing long arms and giant palms are the external factors of his success, then the great reaction speed and strength are the internal factors.
Zhang Yi was once again teased in the single defense, which made him extremely angry. This mentality is also a big test for him, who has been smooth sailing since college.
"Simpkins is really a good opponent! Yi, I'll see if you can grow up beyond him! Wacker crossed his shoulders and watched the back and forth on the field. Not only was he not nervous because Zhang Yi lost the duel, but a calm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"What do you think?" "3/7!" The two men in the audience behind the Lakers' bench talked. Wacker immediately looked back at the source of the two voices.
Thanks to the fact that it was in the quiet AT&T arena, the two of them didn't talk very loudly, but WACKER's keen hearing immediately detected it. "Why are they here? And I don't know yet? ”
LeBron, who knew he had been discovered, sat in disguise in the ordinary audience?? James and Wang Lung, who also wore a large-brimmed hat, waved at him.
"Who are you talking about 7?" LeBron then asked. "Simpkins, of course. This player reminds me of Durant. And it's a defense-hardened version. "Why isn't it me? Then his dominance is almost meaningless......"
"Haha, if you're 50 years younger, you probably won't be able to get past him for a few rounds!" Wang Lung's straightforwardness made LeBron blacken his face. It's just that what this guy said may be right, one-on-one is really difficult for the opponent to score with such a terrifying defense. "Don't forget that I have the power of the inside, even if I hit the back from the outside to the basket!"
Hearing this, Wang Lung shook his head, "You're not Barkley, will you use such an ugly offensive method?" LeBron shook his head. Okay, it's your apprentice who was abused, why did it suddenly get to me! ”
Waiting for the Lakers' offensive round, Oscar controlled the ball and faced the opponent with shaking to find space and then walked like the bottom line. Zhang Yi immediately responded and attracted the defense and prepared to let his teammates open up the situation.
But Robert was blocked by star quarterback Tom, and Wali's ability to get to the basket was obviously not as good as David's. Oscar rushed in and found that there was no chance, so he went to the bottom line and passed the ball back.
Zhang Yi received the ball, and half of this offensive round has passed. He dribbles quickly to find his rhythm, and in front of him Simpkins obviously won't give him the distance to break through.
Half a step apart, the opponent opened his huge arm and directly covered Zhang Yi's face, which made him sigh What kind of breed is this guy, how can his arm grow so long?!
When he started to use the shaking he was good at and wanted to break through to the right, Simpkins immediately pressed against him and pressed up, not giving Zhang Yi room to jump at all.
Although the referee followed them the whole time, the strength of the Simpkins lies in the clean and neat explanation of the defensive movements, which is like a textbook. In the end, Zhang Yi could only helplessly retreat suddenly, so that Zhao Jinji independently stepped back and hit the Lakers' first attack tonight!
"What else would you do?" Zhang Yi knew that Simpkins was teasing himself, "It will be far more than you think!" But the opponent didn't know that he had learned the offensive skills of countless stars on videotapes since he was a child!
