Chapter 40: Appearance, Super Far Three Points

Ye Feng watched a lot of NBA games in front of the TV in his previous life.

But I never felt as deep in it as I did at this moment, just a preseason game gave Ye Feng a completely different feeling from the summer league.

The blood-boiling ceremony, the ever-changing situation on the field, the intrigue between the two managers, and the wits and courage of the players on the field......

It was clear that the Cavaliers were at the bottom at the moment, and Paul lost to Larry Brown in the fight.

"Shoot threes, shoot resolutely!"

Paul anxiously shouted at the Cavaliers' five starters.

At this moment, the Pistons have guarded the basket like an iron bucket, and no matter how strong James and Davis are to break through, they will be strangled by the Pistons' defensive system.

The only way is to shoot three-pointers, and only three-pointers can pull away from the Pistons' defense and give James and Davis space to impact the basket.

However, the more you think about something, the more you don't come.

James and Davis were not consistent shooters, and McGinnis was also very poor today, shooting 0-of-5 from three-point range for the next three minutes.

On the contrary, Hamilton of the Pistons felt hot, hitting hundreds of shots and scoring 8 points in a row.

The first quarter was played for 9 minutes, and when the official timeout, the score became 22:8, and it was directly spent.

The fans in the Motor City were so excited that they all stood up to cheer for the home team.

There are even fans clamoring for the Cavaliers to score in the first quarter at odd numbers, not doubles.

If you don't score a double in a single quarter, that's a shame, and everyone in the Cavaliers will be nailed to the shame post.

The two commentators, Barkley and Smith, didn't expect the game to play like this in the first quarter, so what else to explain? Hurry up and give advice to the Cavaliers.

Barkley suggested that the Cavaliers also switch to a pure defensive lineup and play defense with the Pistons.

Smith's proposal is a little more rational, at this time it is necessary to change the person who can shoot, a few people on the court have a bad hand, change the bench!

The Pistons also opened up the advantage after switching to Oku, and Larry Brown's substitution was very successful, so why can't Paul try it?

But Paul hesitated because he was not a decisive man himself.

He hesitated when James and Davis had conflicts, he hesitated when the whole team had defensive problems, and now he needs to make a decision, and he is still hesitating.

Before you know it, the pause has passed.

When the referee came to ask for play, Paul hadn't made a decision yet, but he couldn't delay it at this time.

In desperation, Paul blinded a few people.

Center: Chris Meme.

Power forward: Boozer.

Small forward: Darius.

Shooting guard: James.

Organizational Defender: Ye Feng.

After the order, Paul regretted it, this lineup was a mess. First of all, let's not talk about the configuration.,Age alone makes people unconfident.。

Two fourth-graders, one second-grader, two rookies, it's so tender!

But it's too late to change people.

Larry Brown couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw this lineup.

He knows Paul too well, Paul is quite sensible when the wind is down, and he will be at a loss when the wind is against the wind. Now faced with a single quarter being suppressed to a single-digit score, Paul is really confused.

On this kind of young lineup, do you plan to give up directly? Take a look at the Pistons' lineup.

Center: Oku.

Power forward: Ben Wallace.

Small forward: Chris Williams (31).

Shooting guard: Chaki Atkins (30).

Defender: Billups.

With the same 2 starters and 3 benches, the Pistons' lineup looks completely different.

Billups has the rhythm of the offense, Big Ben is the heart of the defense, and the others are seasoned veterans.

Just looking at the lineup, everyone felt that this game was destined to enter garbage time in two quarters and clock out of work.

Honk~

At the beginning of the game, Ye Feng received the bottom line serve.

As soon as I got the ball, I heard a lot of chatter.

"Yo, yellow-skinned Asian defenders, it's rare. I haven't seen anyone who this guy is. ”

"Last year, there was a champion Yao Ming, and this year there is a defender. But don't Asians only produce big guys, and small guys are a mess? ”

"I'm not interested in who he is at all, I'm thinking about how many points this guy can score on his first appearance. You know, Yao Ming didn't score 1 point in his first regular season game, will this guy continue the Asian tradition? Hahaha! ”

There were bursts of ill-intentioned speculation and chuckles in the stands, and all kinds of eyes looking at Ye Feng were like looking at rare animals in the zoo, which made people particularly uncomfortable.

Barkley and Smith in the commentary room weren't so surprised, after all, they had already commented on Ye Feng's game once in the summer league.

In that game, Barkley owed Smith a month's worth of food because of his bet on Ye Feng.

"It is still necessary to arrange Ye to play, Ye's three-point ability is very strong, maybe it can open up the situation for the Cavaliers."

Smith said.

"Kenny, are you expecting too much from Ye. I know Ye is playing well in Summer League, but you know that Summer League and Preseason are two levels of competition. The first thing Ye has to face may not be the problem of scoring, but the problem of mentality. You have to know that Yao was so nervous that he missed his only shot in the first game. ”

What's more, Yao is the champion, and Ye just failed the draft. If it weren't for the Cavaliers' backup playmaking guard who was hospitalized and the team was empty, Ye might not even get a chance to play. ”

Barkley was telling the truth.

If it weren't for Dajuan Wagner's injury, Ye Feng really wouldn't have had a chance to play so early.

"Still, mentality, I don't know what it is."

Ye Feng glanced up at the commentary room above, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. I have even experienced life and death countless times, how can I be nervous in such a scene?

Ye Feng twisted his neck and began to dribble unhurriedly.

Just after halftime, James suddenly leaned over and whispered: "Ye, don't be nervous, everything has me!" ”

"Does everyone think I'm going to be nervous?"

Ye Feng smiled bitterly, and asked the 18-year-old James to comfort his 20-year-old self, this is not something to be happy about.

Even if he was the first person in the alliance in the future, Ye Feng still had a feeling of being looked down upon, and he was very uncomfortable in his heart.

"Well, I'll disappoint you all!"

Silently, Ye Feng made a decision in his heart.

In an instant, Ye Feng became more serious than ever, without the slightest expression on his face, his eyes scanned the halfway, observing the slightest trace on the field.

The Pistons continued their previous tactics, with five people shrinking the basket and not giving James a chance to break through.

Billups was at the top of the three-point arc, Williams and Atkins were on the wings, and Oku and Big Ben were in the low post and besieged the basket.

On the Cavaliers' side, Meme and Boozer fought hand-to-hand inside to take advantage, Darius swam inside the three-point line looking for opportunities, and James stood outside the three-point line to meet Ye Feng.

After understanding the situation on the court, Ye Feng continued to advance until one meter outside the three-point line.

Billups looked at Ye Feng and didn't force it up, it seems that the Pistons are determined to stick to the inside.

In this case, Ye Feng raised the basketball and made a shooting posture.

"Oh my God, what is this guy going to do, just go three points away, he's crazy, right?"

"Is this guy really a basketball player? The closer he gets to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage, doesn't he know this? ”

"Paul replaced McGinnis, who did nothing, and replaced it with an even more stupid Asian guard, and the Cavaliers have already lost!"

"Give the ball to James and get off the court, yellow monkey!"

......

The fans at Auburn Hills Palace Arena let out bursts of laughter, the Cavaliers' coaching staff looked so ugly that Paul even wanted to cover his eyes.

The Cavaliers on the court also looked confused, it was only the first 7 seconds, and this new guard dared to shoot like this? What a guts!

Boozer was stunned, he didn't have the guts to do that in his rookie season.

Meme stepped up his hand-to-hand fight, ready to scramble for rebounds.

Big Ben and Oku are also desperately stuck in positions to collect this backcourt rebound.

Only Billups and James, these two people have been staring at the ball in Ye Feng's hand. The two of them did not directly deny Ye Feng's shooting behavior, because they saw that Ye Feng's eyes were so calm and calm.

Instead of the madness of the waves, or the nervousness of being at a loss.

"Is this guy really that sure?"

Billups couldn't help but think about it, but quickly dismissed it.

In this day and age, three-pointers are not the norm for scoring. Most coaches don't like players shooting threes, and players don't like practicing three-pointers.

So the three-point shooting rate of the entire league is not high overall, let alone this kind of ultra-long three-point shot.

"This goal will never go in!"

Billups made a judgment.

Ye Feng didn't know what Billups was thinking, he just shook his wrist lightly and sent the basketball out.

A graceful arc that shot steadily to the basket.

Swish!

A wave of white nets.

The entire palace of Auburn Hills was silent, and everyone's mouths were wide open.
