After Billups scored, the Nuggets' bench instantly became lively. The players waved their towels vigorously, and Van Exel shouted: "Rookie, well done!" ”

"This kid is so strong!"

D'Antoni stood up, his face full of surprise, and his gaze at Chi Liang was filled with surprise and incomprehension.

What surprised me was Chi Liang's ability, especially the passing that didn't look at people, and few defenders had such passing skills. Even top point guards have a hard time guaranteeing success.

What I don't understand is Chi Liang's order, with the ability that Chi Liang showed, why he fell to the 23rd place in the first round.

However, thinking about Chi Liang's complexion, D'Antoni turned to an expression of understanding.

In the NBA, the yellow race has not proven itself, and it is unknown whether they can adapt to the NBA. Naturally, not many teams are willing to gamble, especially those with high draft picks.

"It's not easy to do!"

Kidd frowned slightly, he can be said to be the coach on the field, with extremely high tactical literacy. Although the score has not been overtaken, the momentum of the Nuggets has been played out, and it must be contained as soon as possible, otherwise it will be smoothed by the opponent and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Thinking like this, Kidd held the ball past half court and then gestured to Longley.

Billups saw Kidd's gesture and couldn't help but pay attention to his surroundings, Kidd seized the opportunity and broke through Billups in an instant without waiting for Longley to step forward to block the dismantle.

Chi Liang, who was not far away, always kept an eye on Kidd, and hurriedly pounced on Kidd at the moment when Kidd broke through Billups.

However, at that moment, Kidd took a quick hand and passed the ball to Gugliotta, who was in the open space.

Without hesitation, Gugliotta jumped up and raised his hand to shoot.

At this moment, Chi Liang appeared in front of him and jumped up as well.

It turned out that at the moment when Kidd made a passing move, Ji Liang, who was in a state of dynamic vision, immediately reacted, hurriedly stepped on the floor, and appeared in front of Gugliotta as quickly as possible.

Gugliotta was obviously taken aback, he didn't expect Ji Liang to return to the defense so quickly, resulting in the strength not being mastered well, and the ball was not hit in the end.

The basketball bounced at the front of the basket, just towards Chi Liang, and he grabbed it.

Gugliotta hurriedly stepped forward, struggled to entangle Chi Liang, and waited until his teammates returned to defend before returning to his own half.

Since Ji Liang showed his ability to pass long passes, the Suns have been jealous.

Seeing that there was no chance to break quickly, Ji Liang had no choice but to pass the ball to Billups.

When he came to the three-point line, Gugliotta immediately tangled up.

This time, under the entanglement of Gugliotta, before Ji Liang could run a chance, McDyce stood up and began to ask for the ball in the waist position.

Without hesitation, Billups passed the ball over.

Although Billups is not as good as Kidd in terms of passing skills, it is not much worse.

After receiving the basketball, McDies leaned on his back and collided with Robinson.

Robinson resisted hard, but McDyce took advantage of the situation to turn right and used his nimble footwork to break through Robinson.

That opportunity wasn't wasted, and before Longley helped defend, McDyce hit the board.

This time the score also made all the previous efforts of the Suns in vain, and the two sides returned to the starting line.

The stadium fell silent instantly, and even the pseudo-fans realized that something was wrong.

Suns fans never expected that Chi Liang, who was originally considered by them to be a 'point boy', became the strongest player on the court.

Since the yellow race came on the court, the Nuggets' offense has been significantly smoother, and it has a strong sense of spectacle.

This also made Suns fans very jealous of Ji Liang, and they prayed that this was only a temporary phenomenon.

At the same time, Suns head coach Danny Ainge had an unsightly expression, which made him choose to take a timeout again.

If it continues, if the Nuggets go well, the Suns will be in danger.

"Gugliotta, on the offensive end, pull that rookie out and avoid distracting your teammates. As for the defensive end, try to entangle him as much as you can! ”

When it comes to the end, Danny Ainge is actually very helpless, and it is impossible to completely limit this kind of player who can shoot, burst and pass.

Gugliotta nodded, and although he was not blown up at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends just now, he was also clearly at a disadvantage.

It's a rare occurrence for an all-star player to be overpowered by a rookie while still in his prime.

On the other side, looking at Chi Liang who came down from the field, D'Antoni showed a subtle smile and praised him loudly.

As long as Ji Liang continues to play magically, the Nuggets have a good chance to win this game.

"Good job, boy!"

At this time, Van Exel ran over and patted Ji Liang on the shoulder.

Fan Maniac has a fickle temperament, but he is naturally happy to see that the team has hope of winning.

On the other side, McDeis hooked Chi Liang's neck and grinned at Chi Liang.

With the exception of Williams, the rest of his teammates also smiled.

As for Williams, he sat alone in the corner, with his head covered with a towel, and no one could see his expression.

It can be said that in just a few minutes, Chi Liang has received the attention of his coach and teammates.

"Okay, let's be quiet, the Suns will definitely take measures to deal with it next, so Van Exel will replace Washington in a moment. At that time, we will have three players in the backcourt who can shoot and pass, and as long as you work together, the team's attack will be smoother! ”

D'Antoni thought very well, but what he didn't know was that although all three of them could shoot, there was only one basketball, and the distribution of the ball alone was a headache.

After returning from a timeout, the Suns' offense was completed by Kidd, who, after avoiding Billups with a pick-and-roll, slammed into the box and drew a foul on Lafrentz.

Before the third quarter arrived, Lafrenz received his fourth foul, and he was only a rookie and relatively inexperienced.

Standing at the free throw line, Kidd hit both free throws to regain the lead.

At this time, the Nuggets opted for a substitution, with Laferenc off the court and Lauren Mayer, who is also the Nuggets' backup center.

After resuming play, Van Exel received the basketball and quickly carried the ball past half court.

Gugliotta used all his strength, tightly pestering Chi Liang, and from time to time there were some hidden small movements.

Ji Liang endured the discomfort and began to work hard to run. He was quicker than Gugliotta and quickly ran his chances.

However, instead of shooting, he passed to Van Exel, who completed the layup.

The game on the field continued, the two sides went back and forth, you scored a goal, and all played a high success rate.

83-86

By the end of the third quarter, the Nuggets had a narrow margin over the score.

In this quarter, Ji Liang scored 7 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks and 1 steal in a single quarter.
