Chapter 45: It's Really a Fish Belly
8 minutes and 50 seconds in the first quarter, Ji Guoqiu took the ball at the waist position, Cassel inserted the ball into the inside line with Ji Guoqiu's cover on the outside, got the basketball from Ji Guoqiu's hand, and then took a step to the basket and posed for a layup, which caused Collison to have to make up for the basket to defend the alien's layup.
After passing the ball behind Kassel, Ji Guoqiu gave Kassel no ball cover, and then took a step outside to create space to shoot, and received the ball at ten feet......
This shooting position is close to the waist circumference, and it is more than three meters when you convert feet into meters, so close to Ji Guoqiu's hit is very high, and it is unguarded, and the basketball is hollow into the net.
With a score of 8:2, the Clippers played extremely smoothly in the opening game, Ji Guoqiu responded near the three-second zone, and the Clippers players ran around him back and forth, and if he didn't pay attention, he would find a passing space and pose a threat. There was a gust of wind in the supersonic exclusion zone. Coupled with Ji Guoyi's containment on the outside, pulling one of their two inside lines out of the penalty area, the supersonic was a loophole inside and outside for a while.
Ji Guoqiu got his first point, the supersonic coach had to call a timeout, at the beginning they did not attack well, and the defense was even more unbearable, I thought this was a duel between fish belly, but now it seems that they are indeed fish belly, but the Clippers don't look like it.
The two brothers opened, one scored 3 points, the other scored 2 points, Ji Guoqiu got 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in addition to 2 points, and an All-Star interior line that can support both offensive and defensive ends is already in shape, except for the offensive means, how does the old Dunleavy think Ji Guoqiu likes it. At this time, don't talk about Kaman, even Brand has long been forgotten by him, these two brothers have been cultivated, it is a treasure that can be used for more than ten years, and no one will exchange it.
Taylor Swift didn't know anything about basketball, she also used to play on the girls' basketball team in school, although she only played for a few months and then gave up, but at least she knew the rules of basketball clearly, and she could see that the twins were good, but she wanted to know who was the villain?
Charles Barkley unceremoniously commented during the timeout: "The SuperSonics called a timeout, which is correct, but I guess poor Callesimo must have felt that 60 seconds was not enough, and I don't think giving him ten minutes was enough for him to correct his team's mistakes because they didn't do anything right." ”
Kenny Smith laughed: "The development of a defensive system is not a month or two of training, and the accumulation of experience on the field of young players is not overnight, if the defense cannot be improved for a while, the supersonic might as well use all their energy on offense, as long as you score enough, you can still win the game without defense." ”
The fans in front of the TV said that you are pure, you don't defend and win the game to show me?
After the timeout, the SuperSonics really did what Barkley said, and there was no improvement, but fortunately, Durant finally relied on the advantage of height and arm length this time to score a goal on Artest's head.
Artest is very unhappy, he has already blocked in place, but this rookie jumped up so that he didn't even interfere with the other party's vision, this guy is really too tall, are you sure it's the third position and not the fourth position? The beast felt that the other party was about the same height as the twins on his team.
At 6 minutes and 30 seconds, the Clippers and the SuperSonics made substitution adjustments at the same time, and the Clippers replaced the old cat Mobley with James Posey, and Blevin Knight replaced Cassel. The SuperSonics replaced Wilcox with Jeff Green.
Jeff Green, the No. 5 pick in the Celtics draft this year, was the Greenshirts' main bargaining chip in trading Ray Allen, can play the No. 3 or No. 4 position, and is a two-way forward.
The Clippers and SuperSonics have already played each other in the preseason, and Jeff Green was no match for Ji Guosha at the time, and even less so today.
The game restarted, and Ji Guoyi received the ball with his back in the middle distance on the wing and made a back-to-back singles action.
The fans in the stadium watched intently as Ji Guoyi back-punched Jeff Green, which was a rare scene, and Ji Guozhen rarely used his back-to-back skills in the game.
"Lao Tzu doesn't have to be unsure, but it shouldn't be a problem to bully this little man today."
Ji Guoyi secretly thought in his heart that Jeff Green was about 5cm shorter than him, and he was a little man in his eyes. He leaned back with a lot of strength, the people were a little shorter, but the strength was not bad, anyway, it was not bad compared to him, Ji Guozhi squeezed several times without squeezing, almost in vain.
"Damn, I don't need to be close to the basket to throw it in."
Ji Guo was embarrassed and angry, no longer squeezed back, and directly turned over and jumped, Green stretched out his arm in vain to block, but the basketball was still a long way from being blocked......
"Bang dang!"
Ji Guoyi's eyelids jumped, damn it, it seems that his turnaround jumper in the official game didn't hit at all.
"Mine."
Ji Guoqiu shouted, forced Collison to take off the ball with one arm, and after landing, he pulled out his right hand that was entangled by the opponent's small movements, covered with his own body, jumped up again and slammed the basketball into the basket in a domineering way.
"Toot!"
The referee was not blind, Collisson's small action did not escape punishment, and the goal was valid, two plus one.
Collison also wanted to argue with the referee, but was glared at by the latter, and quickly raised his hands in surrender in fright, and quickly retreated.
Just kidding, the NBA's zero patience is sometimes accommodating to superstars such as Kobe Bryant and James, but Collison still wants to be presumptuous as a small blue-collar worker?
Ji Guoqiu hit a free throw, the score was 14:7, and the Clippers led the SuperSonics by 7 points.
After Posey came on the court, the Clippers actually began to wrap up Durant, and the supersonic fans in front of the TV secretly scolded the old Dunleavy for being crazy!
Artest alone is enough to make a small schoolbag drink a pot, and now old Dunleavy is so cruel that he uses two defensive giants to destroy a first-year rookie together, not to mention this so-called Maddy, even Maddie himself can't please him.
At the end of the first quarter, the tragic Durant scored only 2 points, shooting 1-of-4 from the field. To be honest, although the hit rate is a bit miserable, it is already rare to be targeted by these two and get four shots, which shows that this pockmarked guy does have outstanding potential.
Ji Guoqiu dominated the three-second zone in the first quarter, none of the supersonic insiders was his opponent, and he got 7 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, and Collison, who was opposite him, committed two fouls.
Compared with his brother's turmoil on the inside, Ji Guoyi only hit one three-point shot on the outside today, missed two back-to-back shots, and only scored 3 points on 1 of 3 shots.
The score was 25:15, and the Clippers led the SuperSonics by 10 points in the first quarter.
In the second quarter, the bench lineups of the two teams played each other on the court, and Szzebiak, who was also a bargaining chip for Ray Allen, played his spare heat.
The Clippers apparently ran into a convulsive Szczerbiak in the second quarter, and the sharpshooter threw in two three-pointers in quick succession.
James Posey was a little careless on the court, and Dunleavy Sr. immediately rushed to the sidelines and yelled at him: "James, have you eaten too much cheese?" I see countless holes in you! ”
