Chapter 72: Germans, Canadians, Chinese

"Hahahaha, I'm starting to like this kid!" When Charles. When Barkley saw Yiyang stretch out two fingers to provoke Conley, the fat-headed guy smiled.

Ross Barkley likes players with personality because he is one of them himself. Like Yiyang, who dares to make waves in front of old players in his rookie season, Barkley can't put it down.

"Like? If I'm not mistaken, you're pretty much one of the least optimistic commentators. Kenny sitting next to Barkley. Smith cast a look of disdain.

Kenny. Smith and Barkley were able to easily play in the commentary box, but Mike, who had just been scored by Yiyang. Conley wasn't so laid-back.

Perhaps accustomed to Kidd's slowness, Yiyang's sudden breakthrough made the future leader of the Grizzlies a little unresponsive. But the Grizzly Bear No. 11, who boasted to reporters before the game, will not give up. It's just a goal, so there's nothing to be angry about!

Conley came to Yiyang and did not rush to attack. Yiyang stared closely at the black defender in front of him, his height advantage was very effective in blocking Conley's passing route.

Conley wanted to drop a ball high into Gasol's hands, but Yiyang's raised arm was indeed a big threat.

Conley couldn't get the ball out in time, and Gasol, who was already in position, had to withdraw three seconds to get back into position. The NBA's three-second defense rule makes it imperative that the pass of the guard player is timely so that the important position of the interior player is not wasted.

After delaying Conley's pass, Yiyang did not take it lightly, but took half a step back to prevent Conley from breaking through the ball.

"Damn, how did he know?" Conley gritted his teeth, just now he really planned to tear the defense line with a breakthrough. But Yiyang's advance preparation caused Conley's plan to die before it was implemented.

Of course, Yiyang does not have the ability to read other people's minds and predict the future, and the reason why he can accurately judge Conley's next plan is because when he is off the field, Yiyang observes carefully!

"He's smart." Kidd wiped the sweat from his forehead and praised Yiyang on the field.

"It's not that Lao Tzu teaches well." Terry, next to Kidd, patted his chest triumphantly.

Under Yiyang's entanglement, the basketball in Conley's hand was not played for half a day, and the Grizzlies' tactics naturally failed to be implemented.

In the end, Conley had to hand the ball to the team's small forward Rudy. In Guy's hands, facing the aging Marion. Guy forced a break to the basket and made a tough layup.

While the Grizzlies continued to score, Lionel. Hollins certainly couldn't be happy at the moment. Because in one game, it is impossible to win all of them by playing hard.

Changing the Mavericks to attack again, the Grizzlies' defense still makes it difficult for Yiyang to find gaps. Tyson. Chandler was very aggressive on the inside, but Yiyang struggled to get the ball in.

Marion raised his hand to ask for the ball outside the three-point line, and Yiyang, who glanced at Marion with his residual vision, did not hesitate and threw it directly. The basketball soon flew into Marion's hands, but Rudy. Guy's follower is faster! As soon as Marion received the basketball, Guy posted it again!

After that, Marion intends to break through directly. But Guy was in great shape today. He tried hard to keep his guard close and Marion was forced to stop.

There was no way, Marion hit the ball to Yiyang's hand again, and everything returned to square one.

Nowitzki asked for the ball, but Randolph actually adopted a strategy of circumventing the front of the German defense. Everyone thought that the Mavericks' offense was finished, but Yiyang's choice once again surprised everyone.

I saw that the No. 1 defender directly hoisted the ball high and flew in the direction of Nowitzki!

"A rookie is really a rookie!" Zack. Randolph couldn't be happier to see this scene, this is simply a steal given to him by Yiyang!

If it had been before, Nowitzki would have been puzzled by Yiyang's pass. But now, Nowitzki believes in Yiyang's passing ability!

The basketball slowly approached the two big men, one black and one white, and Randolph tried to keep the German out of his back, ready to jump and cut off the basketball at any time as he went around the front defense!

"It's now!" Seeing the opportunity, Randolph, who was leaning on Nowitzki, jumped suddenly, and the basketball looked close at hand!

However, basketball only seems to be close at hand. When Randolph jumped, the basketball was a fraction of a second away from his fingers. But the basketball slashed across Randolph's fingertips and fell backwards!

Since Randolph was defending around the front, Nowitzki was empty behind him! This orange-red basketball was impartial, and it just crossed Randolph and fell into Nowitzki's hands!

After receiving the basketball, the German immediately took a big step, faced the unguarded basket, and dunked with both hands!

"Dirk~~~~~ Nowitzki!" The DJ shouted an exaggerated shout, and fans throughout the U.S. Airline Center Arena stood up to cheer on their star of the game.

But Dirk didn't celebrate himself after the successful dunk, but ran up and touched Yiyang's head. "Pass beautifully!"

Cuban sat in the audience, and the smile on his face seemed somewhat complicated. The scene just now reminded the guy Kuban of the young German and Canadian. Now that the Germans are getting old, the Canadians have long since written their own legend in another land. As for the young Chinese, maybe he can really hold up the future of Dallas?

"How did you pass the ball? Just right! "Kenny. Smith couldn't believe how Yiyang managed to master this slight difference, and the only explanation was that the Chinese defender had shit luck.

However, in the second goal, Randolph, who had the same idea, still chose to go around the front to defend Dirk. Yiyang's old tricks are repeated. Once again, the basketball narrowly passed Randolph's finger and fell into Nowitzki's hand.

This time, Mark. Gasol quickly made up for the basket. But Nowitzki turned a dunk into a throw, evaded Gasol Jr.'s defense, and scored again!

This time, the close-up of the photographer on the scene was not given to Nowitzki, but fixed on Yiyang's face. This expressionless Chinese rookie made everyone's jaws drop.

"I'm willing to bet that even if Jason is on the field, he won't be able to pass that accurately!" Kenny. Smith thought that Yiyang could be guided by Kidd and others in the Mavericks, and his growth rate would inevitably be quite terrifying!

"I now know how this kid averaged 10 assists per game in the NCAA, and if the NCAA game was 48 minutes, he would probably have averaged more assists per game!"

These two blows not only gave the Mavericks the lead in the score, but also demoralized the Grizzlies' players.

After that, Randolph, who was eager to save face, wanted to single Nowitzki one. Although he had a slight advantage in tonnage, Randolph's back-to-back jumper was knocked out of the frame under Nowitzki's interference.

Tyson. Chandler grabbed the defensive rebound and threw the ball straight to Marion, who was galloping forward. Marion runs wild, but Guy stays by his side. If Marion rushes to the basket, what awaits him will be Guy's ferocious chase!

For Marion, whose athleticism has deteriorated, this is a problem he has to face. The guy made it all the way to the three-second zone, but Guy didn't notice any intention of jumping.

At this moment, the experienced Marion suddenly passed the ball outside the three-point line. At the 45° position on the right side of the basket, Yiyang just arrived and got a chance to shoot three points in an open position!

Suddenly, the center of gravity of the Grizzlies moved closer to Yiyang. Although Yiyang's three-point shot is not his killer feature, he still has three points in the open position. After all, this guy is the guy who won the championship in the NCAA with a three-point kill!

Mike. Conley hurriedly pounced on Yiyang, and the Grizzlies shrank directly to the rest of the basket, ready to protect the rebound.

Yiyang's eyes were fixed on the basket, and then he suddenly started his hand! It's not a shot, it's a pass that doesn't look at people!

The basketball flew past Conley and into the front of the basket. There, the Mavericks' three-point shooter Jose. Barria is ready!

"The speed at which the ball is conducted! Barria three-point shot! BOOM! The goal went in and another nice assist! His composure during the game didn't look like a rookie at all. 7 points, the Mavericks are now 7 points ahead! Coach Hollins called a timeout, and their defense was torn apart by Yi's pass! "Kenny. Smith looked at the Dallas No. 1 who was slowly walking down the field, maybe the gambler in Cuban would really win this time?

After that, the experienced Kidd replaced Yiyang again. The Grizzlies made adjustments, and they also made Rudy, who was in excellent form. Guy became an offensive powerhouse.

In the deal went Caron. After Butler, the Mavericks were indeed a little stretched at the No. 3 position. When Marion came off the field, Carlisle had to use Donimic, who was originally playing in the second position. Jones stepped up to the small forward position. However, this guy with the same height as Yiyang was replaced by Rudy, who was 2.03 meters tall. Guy was helpless.

Relying on Guy's excellent play, the Grizzlies tied the score in the final moments of the first quarter of the game. 29 to 29, both sides scored relatively high.

Rick. Carlisle hurriedly sat between his players with a small bench, and the game was not what Carlisle wanted. He glanced around the players on the bench, and finally, his eyes fell on Yiyang.

"Also!"

Hearing the head coach shouting, Yiyang raised his head.

"In the second quarter, I'll increase your playing time! Get ready! Carlisle's tone was unmistakable!

Yiyang took the towel off his neck and nodded silently. The Mavericks' X-factor is about to start to play its part to the fullest......
