Chapter 401: What They Believed

Although Yu Fei wants to be one-on-one with Paul, the Hornets will not let this happen easily.

Because from the point of view of size, the alignment of Paul and Yu Fei at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is not equal.

Therefore, the Hornets will let others consume Yu Fei and let Paul play big on the offensive end.

However, not all consumption is useful.

Peja can match Yu Fei in terms of size, but his speed and athleticism are far behind.

Yu Fei easily broke through his defense, and in turn, Peja came to the offensive end after shouldering the defensive responsibility against Yu Fei, but there was no guarantee that that the silky shot would still work.

Once he can't shoot, Peja loses his spatial value as a goalscorer.

On the defensive end, he couldn't make effective restrictions on flying.

Five minutes into the first quarter, Yu Fei caused Peja's second foul, forcing the Hornets to take the initiative to adjust the alignment.

Byron Scott replaces Peja for heavy forward Bunch Wells.

All heavy strikers are compared to Ross Barkley when they make their debut.

Wells also had a reputation for Barkley Jr. in his early days, but that expectation would quickly go bankrupt in the NBA, proving how special Barkley is.

"No matter how great you are, you're a thief this season!" Wells is a hardcore Paulo, "Chris is the real MVP!" ”

That's why Yu Fei hates to play against these people on the offensive end.

He was speechless? No, he didn't bother to refute.

These people are too low-level, and it is superfluous to talk to them.

Yu Fei sank into the low position, stuck Wells, and after receiving the pass, he immediately sensed that the opponent's defensive center of gravity was on his weak side, so he first made a tentative move to shake his shoulders to the weak side, and when Wells couldn't figure out the situation, he suddenly accelerated and turned around and rushed towards the strong side.

The weight advantage of a heavy forward is evident in the low post, but if he is in the flying basket, the flaw of poor lateral movement is also exposed.

Wells is not much better than Peja in this regard.

Yu Fei shook Wells behind him and scored a layup.

17 to 11

Yu Fei scored his 10th point.

The first quarter is not yet halfway through, but the supersonic speed can already rely on Yu Fei's individual ability to take the lead.

Paul glanced at Yu Fei and said to Wells, "The Bonz, I won't let you face him alone. ”

"It's hard to deal with." Wells said with trepidation, "He's fast." ”

"I know."

Paul couldn't find an effective way for Wells to limit Fly's offense.

All he can do is respond as much as he can when his side attacks.

However, it is not easy.

Paul dribbled to the front court, and it was not Roy who greeted him, but Yu Fei.

From the perspective of the logic of the match, it is unreasonable to take the initiative to give a small and big misplaced master like Paul to play misposition.

But for Fei, he doesn't mind being beaten up by Paul.

He doesn't have the responsibility of the offensive system as he did with the Bucks, so he has plenty of energy to splurge on the defensive end, and he wants to find some experience defending small men against Paul.

It would be nice if Paul could be disgusted by the way.

Paul was solid on the ball, and Yu Fei's interference didn't seem to have any effect on him.

He came to the basket at a pace that wasn't fast or slow, and Brown's patchwork allowed him to only get a shot to the basket before coming to the baseline on the other side and dropping the ball to Maurice Peterson.

Steadiness is his strength. He's playing with a clear head, he knows what to do, he knows how to avoid mistakes, but it's precisely because he doesn't have absolute speed and explosiveness that he doesn't have that kind of frightening offense.

Once Paul doesn't get the ball, the Hornets' offense becomes mediocre.

He spun around and looked like he was messing up the supersonic defense, but the way he got the ball out was unthreatening.

Peterson shook Durant and went to the basket but was forced into a mistake by Marion's defense.

Paul was quick to get back to the point where the mistake happened.

He really only makes the right decisions.

It's a matter of his talent.

On the basis of a height of 183 cm, no matter what he does, he needs to think carefully.

Only by doing the right thing can he become the god of point guard.

But for those who are more than 20 centimeters taller than him, the right thing is only one of the options, and the most important thing is what is the benefit?

Yu Fei beat Peja, and now he wants to blow up Wells.

He's going to break the Hornets flanks to pieces and fundamentally disrupt their roster balance.

Roy is very willing to be a hands-off shopkeeper, throwing the ball to Yu Fei and letting him take care of the aftermath, which is definitely the easiest thing in the world.

Yu Fei picked up the ball high on the left side, and Wells' bulky body couldn't stop his breakthrough.

Paul broke away from Roy's defense at the moment of his move, and the shortest guy on the court quickly realized that he couldn't stop his opponent in any proper way.

He will do the right thing and he will do the dirty thing.

It's a consensus in professional basketball that a small guard equals a poor defense, but Paul's presence refutes this stereotype. He's only 183 centimeters, but he's very good defensively. This is certainly not because he has a talent for reversing physical imperfections, but because he dares to use any means on the defensive end.

Between the movements, Wells is no longer Yu Fei's problem, and Paul's appearance is not surprising.

But how can a small man of 183 cm stop himself?

Paul stretched out his hand, which seemed to break the ball, but pointed directly at Yu Fei's abdomen.

Yu Fei reacted in an instant, and instinctively raised his left hand and threw it at Paul's body.

"Beep !!"

Unless it's Kobe Bryant, who plays at the Staples Center, even the first person in the league can't openly elbow an opponent.

Yu Fei raised his hand to admit the offensive foul, and his elbow to Paul was bound to cause discussion after the game, but what about Paul's hand? No one knows what will happen if he doesn't dodge, or if he doesn't subconsciously fight back.

Yu Fei sarcastically said: "Look, this is the reason why you can't even beat Kobe in the MVP vote." ”

Paul remained silent, although he didn't say anything, but looking at his posture, he knew that Yu Fei's elbow blow was not light, and the part of the attack was still painful.

Seeing this scene on the field, Carl knew what supersonic lacked the most at the moment.

They don't have anyone who can help Yu Fei with his dirty work.

When I was in Milwaukee, there were a lot of such people.

But when it comes to Seattle, Dafei needs to be "self-reliant".

Because the new force here is all rookie contract rookies, where do they understand the sinister nature of the league?

This made Carl think even worse, if they met the Celtics in the Finals, would that team full of veteran ruffians do the same?

However, the current situation does not allow him to think about it.

Because Yu Fei came to Paul again, but his defensive movements were more aggressive than before.

Aggressive defence can bring pressure, but it can also leak holes.

Paul soon broke through to fly, but Marion was waiting on the road.

Paul was about to pass the ball when Yu Fei loomed from behind him, and Roy intended to clearly jam the sight of the referee on the sideline.

Less than a second, Paul dropped the ball.

"They fouled!" Paul yelled.

Fouled? Perhaps, but who cares?

Yu Fei copied the ball, Wells wanted to stop it, but he was shaken off by a change of direction from behind, and he lost contact with Yu Fei.

Yu Feiyun passed half the court, slowed down, and sent a long-distance aerial relay pass for Marion.

Marion catches the ball and dunks for a perfect finish.

"He's foul!" Paul yelled at the referee, "That bastard, he.!" ”

Referee Mike Callahan said solemnly: "I don't see it. ”

"How can you ?!!!"

If it hadn't been for David West pulling Paul away, the Hornets would have been whistled for a technical foul right away.

Yu Fei came back, looked at the red-faced Paul and sneered: "Did you complain about your little actions when I was whistled for an offensive foul just now?" Chris, you can't be too LeBron, do you think Mr. Referee is Ling's grandfather, you are only allowed to take advantage and not suffer? ”

In an instant, Paul turned red, but Yu Fei's casual trash talk stripped off his scales.

"Don't mention my grandfather!"

Yu Fei sneered: "You can say whatever I want, you better respect my freedom of speech!" ”

When a sound person loses all his senses, his actions cannot be inferred by common sense.

Paul has everything a core point guard should have, and if he were given an offensive core like Carmelo Anthony or Kobe Bryant, he could be the greatest point guard of the new century, but not everyone is lucky enough to be that kind unless you're willing to make a decision that's destined to be debated at the right time.

Paul is only himself, and although his teammates are very good, can he expect others in this situation?

Enraged, Paul forgot his strengths, he wasn't Iverson, nor was he the other little steel cannon with explosive physical fitness, and his strong burst was exchanged for Yu Fei's close defense.

Until the end, when he wanted to use that move again with his back to the defender's pick, he completely forgot that he didn't suppress Yu Fei's body at all.

What followed was the bloody cover after Yu Fei jumped with all his might.

"Smack!!!!

Paul's basket was fanned out of bounds, and he himself fell to the ground under the onslaught.

Yu Fei didn't look at him, turned around and spread his hands at the camera.

Why did he dare to go to the basket in front of me like that?

That's what he wanted to convey.

The fans of the Key Arena went into a frenzy.

“MVP”

“MVP”

“MVP”

That frenzy of emotion turned the place into a personal temple, and Frye Yu's will reigned supreme over all the creatures in the arena.

They scream about it, they go crazy about it.

Because they truly believe that this man is the savior of Seattle professional basketball.

For such a person, the MVP is just an embellishment of all the aura on him.

But unfortunately, it is a lifelong desire for many players.

Paul stood up, red-eyed and trying to continue, but the Hornets called a timeout.

The first time Byron Scott saw such a Paul, he couldn't let it go, otherwise, Yu Fei would completely destroy him.
