Chapter 118: The tip of the needle is against the wheat

At the end of the timeout, the Jazz's lineup was also adjusted, first Kirilenko went off the court, and Hayward came on, which may be Hayward's earliest appearance since entering the league.

At the same time as Hayward appeared on the stage, the light in Summer's eyes also flickered, after so long, he was finally going to face Hayward again!

The Jazz attacked, Delon reluctantly passed the ball to Hayward after arriving in the frontcourt, and the Jazz everyone pulled away, and all the fans began to watch, watching the showdown between Hayward and Summer.

This is a 10-year peerless duo, two top players at the No. 3 position, but unlike the fans, they are Jazz players, and they have a distrustful attitude towards everyone on the Jazz Hayward team.

After all, he is just a rookie, with an average playing time of more than 10 minutes per game, and in this NBA where top players gather, can this rookie still turn the sky upside down?

But apparently they forgot about Summer, Griffin, and Wall when they thought about it, and these three were also rookies, but they were thriving in the league.

"Hey, I'm on the pitch so soon, and it looks like what I said is still quite useful." Summer said proudly.

Hayward also smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Natsu, if it weren't for you, maybe I wouldn't have played so early, but don't expect me to show mercy to your men, I've been looking forward to this duel for a long time." ”

"Yo, you're confident, aren't you? Come on! I didn't expect you to release the water again! Summer patted her chest as if she were in a challenge.

The expressions of the two began to slowly become serious, facing the summer, Hayward first probed a few times, but found that the summer was unmoved and immediately began to dribble and break through.

Although Hayward's breakthrough is not as good as Wei Shao's outburst, Wall's speed, and Harden's rhythm, it also has its own characteristics, that is, softness!

This kind of soft breakthrough is difficult to shake off the defender, but it can properly open up the position with the defender, and then Hayward will have two options, shooting and resisting the break.

The former Hayward has plenty of space to shoot, while the latter is prone to fouls, and 2+1 is not out of the question.

By the way, don't doubt Hayward's strength, although Hayward is white on the surface, Hayward is actually a half-blood! For power, this point is not inferior to that of black players.

So after the breakout, Hayward started to make a layup with a slight effort and carried the summer.

At this time, Delong, who was standing at a forty-five degree angle, laughed, a rookie can only be a rookie, and he dares to play this kind of ball! I'm really not afraid of being punished by the coach for sitting on the cold bench after not being motivated.

And there is no speed to break through, how did he get to the ninth place at that time! It's better to choose George, at least George breaks through the strength, Delon thought of this and glanced at Sloane unhappily.

After all, as a player, you can't participate in the operation of the team, unless you are a superstar like James or Kobe.

Hayward went straight to the basket after the break, and after carrying the summer two steps forward, he suddenly jumped back and high, the standard 90-degree arm bend, and a slight backward shooting position.

"It's a step-back jumper!" Summer wakes up!

"Don't think about it!" With a dry roar, Summer jumped high and wanted to get a block at Hayward's step-back jumper.

But summer was still a step too late, and the basketball was shot out by Hayward's standard, skipping the summer block and going straight to the basket.

"Huh."

The ball is in!

Hayward's first goal on the court was a single-game summer success.

Summer looked at the basketball that fell from the net, and shook his head with relief, even if you haven't played singles for so long, you can still be so accurate, worthy of you.

Hayward was sitting on the ground smirking, and it seemed that he was happy with his singles.

"Hey, guy, hurry up, this is just the first ball, I'll pay you back the next one!" Summer reached out and lifted Haywardra up.

Hayward was also very excited when he got up: "Then come on!" Our showdown has just begun! ”

After Hayward finished speaking, the two looked at each other, and after a while, they both laughed in unison, quite tacitly.

And Sloan, who was sitting on the bench, also nodded with satisfaction, saying that if it weren't for the summer who admired Hayward so much, Sloan really wouldn't have given him a chance to let him appear so early.

Back in the summer, he took Harden's pass and motioned for his teammates to pull away, facing Hayward and preparing to come himself.

After tentatively stepping, dribbling, and finding that he still couldn't shake off Hayward, Summer took a step back with his right foot, and then broke through with a quick turn.

Compared to Hayward's breakaway, the summer break was quick and much more violent, passing Hayward in just one step, and then throwing the ball out with a pull-up jumper.

Basketball made its way into the Nets under the operation of the summer.

6:2

Summer slammed her chest and looked at Hayward, as if waiting for his response.

Hayward's response was quick, as Deron threw the ball to Hayward after halftime, and Hayward changed direction with a crotch, broke through, and then stepped back to shoot a three-pointer.

6:5

Hayward's shooting is still so steady, even in athletic warfare, the elegant shooting posture, the standard 90-degree bend, people's eyes can't help but light up.

"Hayward!" AJ's voice sounded, and the surrounding audience also shouted enthusiastically, and countless people compared three fingers in their hands, praising Hayward's three points.

"Wow! It's all in! The Jazz's No. 9 rookie is good! scored 5 points in a row on the court, I really don't understand why the Jazz didn't let Hayward enter the starting lineup before, compared to Kirilenko only defending and not attacking, Hayward is obviously a better choice! Johnson said complimentally.

Six minutes passed slowly, and during this period it was basically Hayward and Summer's singles, but even if it was just a two-person single, it made the audience here watch with relish.

After all, Hayward made a beautiful layup here, and he will come back with a violent dunk in the summer, can the audience not like this kind of game! It's like two stars going head-to-head.

There are no exhaustive layers of fancy fairy balls, and the audience feels that the tickets are worth it this time, because Jazz fans have not seen this kind of star heads-up for a long time.

22:20

The Rockets lead by 2 points.

That's what the two rookies did for the team, with the former scoring 15 points and three assists 8-6 in the summer, and Hayward finishing 7-5 with 12 points and two assists.

And if it weren't for the fact that Deron didn't pass the ball to Hayward a few times, maybe the score would have been higher, after all, Hayward is very hot now.

The Jazz continued to attack, and Deron still didn't pass the ball to Hayward this time, and broke through after the team ran into position, and this time Harden was blocked by Hayward and didn't keep up with Deron at the first time.

Delon also successfully entered the inside line, facing the empty inside line, Delong's face was happy and he made a low hand layup.

"This ball is here!" DeLong happily thought that he was finally about to score for the first time.

But just as he was making a layup, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

And this dark shadow is also summer!

Summer actually noticed DeLong's breakthrough when Hayward was covering at the beginning, but Delon's speed was not slow, which made Summer not follow up in the first place.

But DeLong chose to make a low-handed layup after breaking through, and he couldn't help it this summer! I have a height of 2 meters! You're so blatantly ignoring me?

"Smack!"

The basketball was slapped out by Summer.

DeLong also looked at Summer with a blank face, as if he didn't understand that Summer had appeared behind him for a long time, wasn't he still at the free throw line just now? Why did you come so soon?
