One Guard

Vol 2 Chapter 83: : The connection between the old and the young

After    Yiyang made a layup, the Nuggets and Mavericks also drew again. Although the Nuggets could not play with the full lineup today, under the efforts of Anthony and Billups, the Nuggets still struggled to bite the score.

The Nuggets didn’t get frustrated by Yiyang’s wonderful layup. Perhaps that beautiful layup really made Yiyang play Sheldon Williams as the starting number five, but one scored it. The basket is not enough to change the situation of this game.

   In the next round, Billups slowed down his advancement early, seemingly waiting for his teammates to take a seat.

  Yiyang didn't sit still, he waved his long arms and planned to press against Lupus. Facing Yiyang's active defense, the experienced Billups just used one hand to hold the Mavericks' flower show, and then skillfully patted the basketball with the other.

   Basketball bounced back under Billups obediently, this FMVP's ball control is quite steady.

   In addition to Yiyang's defensive effort, the 33-year-old Sean Marion also clings to Anthony. For the Nuggets with an uneven lineup, Billups and Anthony are almost the two sharpest spears under George Carr.

   Everything seems perfect, and the Nuggets seem to be nowhere to be found.

   However, even under this pressure, Billups still passed the ball. Marion thought that the ball was passed to Anthony, so he opened his hands when he ran after Anthony, hoping to destroy the pass and even directly cause Billups' mistakes!

   In the end, the basketball did not fly to Anthony's hands. But this is not because Billups made a mistake or Marion completed the steal, but Billups was not for Anthony at all!

   Nuggets shooting guard Aaron Afflalo, who got the gap by running without the ball, received the basketball and shot immediately! The shooting second with a 43% shooting percentage from last season was not afraid of Barea's blocking. His decisive shots allowed him to get a nearly perfect shooting rhythm. And the perfect shooting rhythm makes that orange basketball fall straight to the net!

"Afflalo's three-pointer is very deadly. The Mavericks did limit Anthony and Billups to death in this round. But Afflalo is also a part that coach Carlisle can't ignore." Billups and Anthony's strength after the opening made people almost forget the existence of other players on the Nuggets. But in fact, George Carr is not the only one who can score with Billups and "Little Melon".

   After being caught off guard by Afflaro and surpassed by one point, Yiyang turned his head and looked at the bench. But Rick Carlisle still sits firmly on the bench, as if nothing happened just now.

   In the next round, Billups used Yiyang's non-stop defensive strategy. He didn't stick to Yiyang, but gave the child two steps. The purpose of doing this is naturally hope that I can limit Yiyang's best breakthrough.

   Yiyang is not stupid, Billups made it clear that he was waiting for him to rush up and hit the wall. He is not like other rookies, but when he sees a little space, he is anxious to prove himself. Yiyang faced a big long-range shooting gap and didn't make blind shots by himself. Instead, he hit the ground and delivered the ball to Nowitzki.

   After receiving Yiyang's pass that was not high or low, the German didn't need to adjust his defense against Gary Forbes. He turned over and shot a jumper and scored again without any pressure.

   The Mavericks took another one-point lead, and the two sides are still alternately leading. This strong dialogue in the West has been very intense from the beginning to the present.

   Then, Billups assisted Afflalo, who cut inside and made a layup. The Mavericks' lead hasn't been heated yet, so it's handed over again.

   The team's second position has always been a defect that the Mavericks can't solve. In order to ensure that the lineup is deep enough, Carlisle used Jose Barea as the second position candidate in several games.

   On the offensive end, Barea's fast running and precise three-pointers can indeed help the team. But on the defensive end, Barea's short height tends to be targeted by the opponent.

   Now Afflalo scored 5 consecutive points in front of Barea, which is very telling. Carlisle, who focused on defense, immediately called the game to a halt. He was about to substitute!

   "Jett, after playing, don't let Afflalo get another chance." Carlisle never spoke muddle-headedly. His simple sentence allowed Terry to fully understand his primary task.

   "Don't worry, that kid is tenderer than me!" Terry showed his trademark smirk, then quickly took off his training suit and jumped on the spot twice.

When    was on the court, Terry deliberately patted Yiyang on the shoulder. "Happy cooperation, brat!"

"After Afflaro scored five points in a row, coach Rick Carlisle still modified his backcourt. Now the Mavericks backcourt is also a combination of Terry, one old and one young, in the first three games. When Terry and Ye are on the court at the same time, they can always play good efficiency. Let's see if Yee and Jet can continue their hot state today!"

   As soon as Kenny Smith's voice fell, Yiyang crossed the center line with the ball. At the same time, Terry began to move according to Yiyang's gestures. From the perspective of vitality, people who don’t know thought the Mavericks’ No. 31 was a rookie!

   Terry's position is not only quick, but also superb. Afflalo crossed the crowd and tried to bite this guy, but the sudden appearance of Tyson Chandler caused Afflalo to collide with the "Boxing King". Tyson used an extremely beautiful ball-free pick and roll to help Terry run out of chance!

   Terry went around the three-point line again and raised his hand to catch the ball. He knew that Yiyang couldn't fail to see such an opportunity. At the same time, seeing that Afflalo had fallen, Billups dropped Yiyang directly and rushed to Tenet, who was about to shoot.

  Terry didn't seem to see Billups coming from the side. He took off resolutely, lifted his feet off the ground, and planned to shoot.

   Billups tried his best to straighten his arm, hoping to interfere with Terry as much as possible. And Afflalo also caught up at the moment, taking off and blocking the block.

   The two defenders, Billups and Afflalo, worked hard to reinforce the defense, and they were stunned that Terry’s opportunity was wiped out.

   The Nuggets fans are ready to cheer after Terry's shot and iron. They want to celebrate the efforts of Billups and Afflalo!

   Just as Terry was about to take a basketball, the "jet" in the air suddenly turned his wrist.

   "Oops!" Billups, as a passing master, cried out in his heart after seeing the changes in Terry's technical movements. If it is correct, Terry should be planning...

   Everyone thought Terry was going to shoot, but instead of flying to the rim after the basketball shot, he crossed the crowd and fell into the hands of Yiyang, who was cut inside after being dropped by Billups!

   When the Mavericks players followed the trajectory of basketball and turned around, Yiyang had already jumped high and made a layup easily.

   "Wonderful pass! All of the Mavericks guards will pass the ball! Jeter did not make a rash shot, but calmly passed the ball and gave the ball to the teammate who had a better chance."

   "How about it, my passing is not bad, right?" After Yiyang completed the assist for the layup, Terry gave Yiyang a mischievous wink.

   Yiyang smiled slightly, and now he couldn't hold back even the habitual facial paralysis. This old guy is really a real treasure.

   Yiyang's layup allowed the two sides to alternate their lead before the end of the first quarter, but the Nuggets have not yet planned to raise their hands to surrender. After Terry came on the field, he did pass a good ball, but he is only 1.88 meters tall, and he may not be able to prevent Afflalo's shot.

   Billups repeated his old skills, and through an almost identical tactic, he finally hit the ball into Afflalo's hands.

   Facing Terry, who is shorter than himself, Afflalo is not timid. He hopes to score with a three-pointer as Terry's response just after an assist.

  If you try to interfere or block, Terry's height disadvantage really cannot be compensated. But the old spicy "jet" would not stand idly by, he suddenly stretched out his palm and slammed it! The whole hand seemed to be on Afflalo's face, not to interfere with the basketball.

   "Blind-eye defense?" Yiyang on the side looked at Terry's movements, this defensive skill Terry had also taught himself.

   In fact, for a professional player, even if you cover his eyes, he still knows where the basket is. Generally speaking, blindfolding does not affect the shooting percentage of offensive players too much.

   But the purpose of Terry and Battier's blindfolding is not to obscure your sight. It is such a sudden jab that makes you subconsciously close your eyes to protect yourself, disrupting the attacking team's shooting rhythm in this surprising way.

   Even Kobe would be disturbed by this trick back then, not to mention that the level of composure was not as good as Kobe's Afflalo.

   Afflalo shot hastily, the basketball arc was too high, and he hit the basket's neck. In the face of the Nuggets' two "fake" insides, Tyson Chandler easily controlled the rebound.

   Yiyang quickly moved forward after he got the ball. He knew that now there is a guy who can accompany him to run and fight!

   Nowitzki and Chandler were pushing crazily behind them, while Yiyang had already ran beyond the opponent's three-point line.

   It seems that Yiyang is planning to directly hit the basket by relying on his absolute advantage in speed. The direct assault in the conversion offense is Yiyang's specialty.

   But just as Yiyang stepped into the three-point line with one foot, his arm grabbed the basketball and suddenly swung back around the waist.

   Another pass from behind, the ball quickly rushed into the hands of Terry who was ambushing in the corner. When Terry received the ball, Afflalo just reacted and was ready to block it. But when Afflalo sealed it, Terry's three-pointer had already been shot.

   In the end, this orange-red basketball hit directly and hollowly, and Yiyang accurately and swiftly passed it back, causing the entire Pepsi Center to shut its mouth!

   Terry closed his eyes, enjoying the booing of the away fans. After that, the old, unscrupulous guy couldn't help opening his arms, as if soaring into the sky. Jet, take off again!

   After going back, the Nuggets obviously accelerated their offensive rhythm, because the Nuggets players who have lost points in a row now want to quickly level the score.

   Billups borrowed Anthony's pick-and-roll to prepare to kill the rim, but Terry and Yiyang's tacit change of defense obliterated all Billups' opportunities.

   "Old man, don't bully my little brother." Terry opened his arms and crossed in front of Billups~www.novelmtl.com~ and smiled at him. Billups was about to return the ball to Afflalo, but found that Yiyang had already changed it. These two guys have long since replaced the defensive position with understanding!

   "Ball." Seeing that Billups and Afflalo have been locked, Anthony directly raised his hand from the three-point line to ask for the ball. He wants to play alone!

   It's a pity that, under Marion's efforts to obstruct and Chandler's last timely defense, Anthony failed to make a layup with two strong layups.

   Nowitzki, who took off the rebound, made a big throw, the basketball flew through half the court, and went straight to the already activated Yiyang!

   The only player on the Mavericks who quickly retreated was Afflalo, who retreated quickly, hoping to interrupt the fast break. After receiving the basketball, Yiyang took two moves, then shook his wrist and gave the ball to Terry who cut into the fast break from the left.

  Afflalo directly pounced to the left, because Terry is now only one step away from the basket, he must be the final point!

   Seeing this, Terry threw the basketball into the air with a hook. Afflalo followed the movement of the basketball and turned around, and saw Yiyang, who was wearing the Dallas No. 1 jersey, jumped high, held the basketball with one hand, and then slammed it!

   "Boom!" There was a loud bang, as if it was a lively thunder! Yiyang raised his "hammer" to release sparks again!

"Yellow lightning strikes! Stopped, the game was stopped. The combination with Jeter also caused the Nuggets to suffer!" Kenny Smith looked at George Carr, who was furious and called a timeout, and was completely lost. The combat effectiveness of the two bench bandits, Terry and Yiyang, was subdued.

   On the field, Terry jumped up happily and collided with Yiyang back to back in the air.

   The Mavericks' second position is too weak? No, the Mavericks' guard line is full of danger!
