Chapter 91: The opponent of 1.75 meters

Kenny. Smith didn't expect that the overwhelmed Mavericks would eventually be able to end the first quarter with a lead.

Rajan. Rondo had all but dominated the game before, but in the final moments of the first quarter, Yiyang's excellent performance slowed down the momentum of the Green Army No. 9.

At this moment, most commentators are not talking about the Celtic Big Three, nor the German Nowitzki. Everyone's goal is to focus on the duel between Yiyang and Rondo.

The wonderful offense and defense shown by the two in the first quarter of the game made fans love it. In the first quarter of the game, Yiyang and Rondo were almost tied. Now people are curious to know who the final winner will be.

Yiyang, who was sitting on the bench, was sweating profusely, after all, in the first quarter of the game, Yiyang was the one on the Mavericks team who played the longest time except for Nowitzki.

Although he was a little out of breath, Yiyang's expression was still murderous. Carlisle gave the players a break for a while, and only after a few minutes did he start to pick up the tactical board and set up his tactics.

"At the beginning of the second quarter, you continue to play." Rick. Carlisle's decision was completely expected by everyone. Maybe the spectators in the stands and the commentators in the commentary stand don't know what happened to Kidd, but the Mavericks players know very well that Kidd, who has suffered a recurrence of his injured leg, won't be able to play for too long today.

Yiyang nodded silently and continued to fight with Rondo, which was exactly what he wanted.

Seeing that Yiyang didn't have any big problems, Carlisle continued. "In the second quarter of the game, don't fight him. Defensively, I hope you can completely contain him on the defensive end. You did a good job in the second half of the first quarter, and as long as Rondo didn't play well on the offensive end, he would be affected on the defensive end. ”

"I see, Coach."

After explaining to Yiyang, Carlisle continued to explain to the others what they needed to pay attention to. The coach who has coached NBA games for nearly a decade knows that for a guy like Yiyang, there are some things that you only need to talk about once, and he knows what to do.

Defending, defending...... Yiyang kept repeating the word in his head. Just as Yiyang was still simulating the picture of defending Rondo in his mind, an electronic buzzer sounded in the arena of the American Route Center. At the end of the intermission, the second quarter of the game between the Mavericks and the Celtics officially began!

After Yiyang came on the field, he immediately set his burning eyes on the opponent's half. But to Yiyang's surprise, Rondo did not step into the court, but sat on the bench in training clothes!

Instead, it was the most talked-about dunk king of the year, the "little potato" Nate who was only 1.75 meters tall. Robinson!

Yiyang looked back at Carlisle, who was obviously a little surprised.

"Fight as planned!" Carlisle waved his hand, and Yiyang stepped into the court with peace of mind. So, let's start with defense!

Nate. Robinson, a guy who is about the same height as an average person, but is a magical little man who can fly past a center like Howard to complete a dunk and win the dunk contest. Of course, Chinese fans will be no stranger to this guy, back then, it was 1.75 meters that he completed the block on the head of Yao Ming, who is 2.29 meters tall. These images are undoubtedly Nate. Robinson's wonderful moments for the world.

Although in terms of bouncing and physicality, Nate. Robinson is indeed top-notch. But basketball games are not won by the height of jumping.

The small defender has been extremely inconsistent and at times, he can be a superstar who saves the team. But sometimes, Nate. Robinson is also likely to be useless on the court. This is also the reason why Nate will move from team to team, not because of his ability, but because of his stability, which makes every time the coach uses him like a gamble!

Now, when Nate, who is only 1.75 meters tall, controls the ball and walks in front of Yiyang, Yiyang's outstretched arms and excellent height conditions make Nate . Robinson's vision was severely obstructed.

Of course, this is not the first time Nate has encountered this situation, this guy called a pick-and-roll, intending to use the speed to break through on his own! Because it seems that even if the emaciated Yiyang can keep up with him, Nate is sure that he will force a layup successfully.

Huge Glenn. Davis immediately said that if he wanted to bypass this fat man, Yiyang seemed to have to put a lot of effort into it. However, Nate was just getting started, and Yiyang immediately bypassed the pick-and-roll. He had already prepared and predicted, just waiting for Nate. Robinson is up to speed!

Almost instantly, Yiyang re-attached himself to the "little potato". But strong Nate. Robinson didn't slow down, he pressed his chest on his shoulders and continued to break through!

I have to admit that Nate, who is only 1.75 meters tall. Robinson, in terms of strength, surprised Yiyang. This guy is completely a small tank, fast and solid.

Nate walked all the way to the basket and then made some small movements on Yiyang's elbow to push Yiyang away.

Yiyang was pushed to take a step back, but quickly stuck to it as best he could. At the same time, Nate. Robinson leaps high and prepares to take advantage of this fleeting opportunity for a layup!

"That's all this kid does!" Nate. Robinson secretly rejoiced in his heart, when the first quarter of the game was off the court, he watched Rondo beat Yiyang with a breakthrough It was quite easy.

"Smack!" However, this crisp sound made the entire U.S. Route Center Arena explode. Yiyang's palm slapped firmly on Nate. Robinson on the basketball in his hand. The basketball flew out of the three-point line and was killed by Sean. Marion picked it up. Yiyang, he made a beautiful block to Nate!

"Nate is really a big loser in terms of height, but he also reacts very quickly. There was no foul on the ball, it was a good risk! As he spoke, Marion was already holding the ball and was moving forward. Celtics backup forward Marques. Daniels simply couldn't keep up with Marion, who dribbled to the basket on his own and dunked with one hand. At the beginning of the second quarter, the Celtics were in a bad shot!

"We don't know when Coach Rivers is going to bring in the Big Three and Rondo, but what I do know is that with the second lineup, the Celtics don't have any chance to close the score."

Rivers certainly wanted to make a substitution, but Rondo had just played the full quarter and he needed plenty of rest. As for the Big Three...... If these three old guys can be three or four years younger, Rivers is definitely willing to let them play now. It's just a pity that it's already the last month of 2010. The Big Three can't be on the pitch for the whole game.

After the breakout loss, Nate. Robinson is looking for opportunities on the perimeter. After all, this guy's projection ability is still there. Before moving to the Celtics in the 09-10 season, Nate was shooting as much as 45% per game.

Robinson directs his teammates to run, and he's always on the lookout. But Yiyang, who has already ingrained the word defense in his brain, is like a lion who has found his prey, chasing after Nate.

Ran several tactics, Nate. Robinson still hasn't gotten much of a chance. 24 seconds of offensive time passed in the extremely unsmooth operation of the Celtics, and in the end, the "little potato" who received the ball outside the three-point line in the bottom left corner had to force fire!

Yiyang cornered Nate before leaping high and straightening his long arms. Nate, who forcibly raised the arc of the basketball, naturally failed to throw the ball in.

There was a crisp bang from the basket, and Nate. Robinson missed his second shot in a row.

Maybe this 1.75m guy once staged a crazy performance of scoring 22 points in a single quarter, but today, this is not Nate's day.

"Boxing King" Tyson did not hesitate after protecting the rebound, and directly threw it to Yiyang, who was about to start running.

Nate. Not to be outdone, Robinson followed closely behind Yiyang. Now among the players left on the court by the Celtics, only Nate can keep up with Yiyang's speed.

This defender, who once played a big risk of Yao Ming, will not mind blocking another Chinese shot.

Yiyang quickly stepped into the three-second zone, he glanced back, and then jumped directly to the basket!

Nate. Robinson's two calves were like two powerful springs, and the muscles tensed and flicked, sending him whole into the air.

The two defenders duel in the air. Robinson slapped hard. His fingers rubbed against the basketball, but the palm of his hand hit Yiyang's forearm solidly.

Yiyang was completely deformed because of the violation. But he still struggled to maintain his balance and try to hold the ball in the direction of the basket.

In the end, Yiyang, who had completely lost his center of gravity, smashed to the ground from a high altitude. At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded, and the basketball that was shot by Yiyang rebounded into the frame after rubbing the rebound slightly!

"Nice aggro! Hit three points! I also got a chance to hit a three-pointer! God, even if Nate uses a foul, he can't stop Yiyang from scoring! "Kenny. Smith jumped up at once, and Yiyang, who had just fallen heavily to the ground, also stood up suddenly, and then stepped into the free throw line unhurriedly.

Yiyang's free throws were still stable and he didn't waste this opportunity in vain. After the free throw, Yiyang turned his head and looked at Rajan on the Celtics bench. Rondo.

Yiyang's eyes full of fire seemed to be saying to Rondo. "Get on the field, or you're going to lose!"

9 points, just a few minutes into the second quarter of the game, Yiyang led the team to a 9-point lead.

Doug. Rivers can't sit still at this point, and he must take back control of the game before that number one guard goes completely crazy!

"Rajan!" Rivers yelled at his duck, and Rondo immediately took off his training uniform.

Yiyang, I have to bury it myself!
