Since the beginning of this season, Yang Di's explosive data performance has shocked not only Americans, but also countless Chinese. Many people have never watched basketball, but under the overwhelming publicity of the media, they have also paid attention to Yang Di's development and a series of things that make people lose their glasses, so as to gradually understand him, gradually like him, and support him.
Just like the NBA whirlwind that Yao Ming hung up two years ago, the rise of Yang Di has boosted it.
At present, basketball has undoubtedly become a favorite sport for many junior high school students, high school students, and even college students, and people imitate Yang Di's technical movements, shooting postures, and pay attention to everything about him.
From the comic dunk master and basketball god Jordan in the 90s to Yao Ming and Yang Di in this era, the NBA is constantly internationalizing and its influence in China is also increasing day by day. Similarly, China's influence on the world continues to grow, and the Chinese market's position in the NBA's internationalization strategy has been valued by the league.
Jerseys, sneakers, endorsed goods, and various related items derived from idols, everything about idols has been sought after by fans.
The camera zoomed in to the moment when Yang Di reappeared, Yang Di, who was standing on the edge with his knees, attracted a lot of attention, but Yang Di didn't care about the broadcast camera, let alone think that there would be millions or even tens of millions of fans staring at him in front of the TV at this time, he stared directly at the situation on the field, and once he played, his attention would become extraordinarily focused.
"Toot ~"
Richardson made a layup and drew a foul on Turkoglu and went to the free throw line.
Yang Di came on to replace veteran Dale Davis.
Time: 5:09 second quarter.
Score: The Magic lead by eight points at 43-35.
Yang Di felt the trickiness of the Magic, unlike the Magic he saw during his time with the Heat last season, this Magic team not only changed the starting lineup, but also had a lot of young and powerful players in the bench lineup, such as the 25-year-old Turkish Sido Turkoglu, who can be inside and out, and the all-round skills, and the 22-year-old Jamil Nelson of St. Joseph's University, who was just traded from the Nuggets in the draft this year, plays calmly and passes steadily.
In short, the Warriors' bench failed to help the main team recover the points, and until Richardson came on early, they couldn't close the difference.
After the Magic substitution, the Magic also replaced Howard.
Richardson made a second free throw.
Yang Di followed and retreated, and Howard also rested for more than half a quarter, at this time, after playing the court, he was energetic and felt in good shape, so he took the initiative to ask for the ball in the low post.
Yang Di bent his arm behind Howard, and his defense against Howard was always the top defense, and he did not exclude the outside to give him the ball.
In fact, because of the mission, Yang Di even thought that Howard would attack a few more times.
Francis didn't give the ball, because Howard attacked twice in the last quarter, but the effect was not good, and Yang Di's strength was too strong, and a player like Howard with average footwork skills couldn't pass him at all.
"Didn't give you the ball?" Yang Di sneered, and after Francis shook a few times on the outside, he made a jumper.
"Humph!"
Howard snorted coldly and found that not only did he not receive the ball, but the position was also firmly stuck by Yang Di.
Francis threw the ball wide, Yang Di grazed the edge of the basket and took the ball off, and the referee almost didn't blow him for interference.
As soon as he got the ball, several of the Warriors' outside players subconsciously ran forward, and the fastest one was Michael Petrus.
Yang Di took two steps and crossed the ball across the half court.
Petrus catches the ball from beyond the three-point line and goes one-on-one against veteran Stercy.
Stercy's confrontation was average, with the buffalo-as strong Petrus using his excellent physical fitness to force an overtake to the basket and make a layup before Francis could return to defense. 43 to 38.
Magic Offense.
Howard didn't ask for the ball again, and walked to the three-point line to block Mobley who was holding the ball, and Mobley couldn't get around the defensive Fisher, and then passed directly back to Francis at the top of the arc.
Francis beckoned, and Howard ran to the top of the arc to block for Francis.
The effect of this block was particularly good, Petrus was blocked solidly, and Yang Di had to let go of Howard to delay Francis, who had changed to break through.
Francis hits the ground and passes to Howard in the air.
Murphy fills in for Youngdy, and Howard can only pass the ball to Turkoglou on the other side.
At this point, Turkoglu can attack the basket directly, but because of Howard's average passing level, he has to dribble one more step to dunk.
This extra step gave Yang Di time to counterattack and make up for the defense.
"Snap", another big hat that covers the sky, slapped on the basketball held high by Tekoglu's hands, and even the person with the ball was pressed down.
The point is that Turkoglu held the ball with both hands, but he still controlled the ball well, and after the basketball landed, he still held it in his hands.
Yang Di raised one hand and pressed his body against Tekoglu.
Tekoglu shook the ball with both hands, Yang Di jumped, and the second time, Yang Di still didn't jump.
Seeing that for three seconds, he jumped up with the ball, Yang Di jumped later, "snapped", and pressed heavily on the basketball again, the basketball fell to the ground under the joint efforts of the two, and was accidentally touched by Yang Di's other hand and flew out of the bottom line.
The audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and the continuous blocks were very morale-boosting.
Montgomery clapped lightly, "Yang Di's lateral movement speed seems to be faster than before?" ”
Turkoglu blushed in embarrassment, although in the NBA where he can fly and jump, his athleticism is relatively average, but it is definitely not more than being humiliated like this, especially since the other party is still a young man who has just turned 20 years old, I knew that it was better to continue to score three points outside, at least it would not be covered anyway.
"Don't worry, we'll just work together to build it back." Howard is very open to this, influenced by American basketball culture, basketball players who can fly and jump abound, and it is normal to be covered by one or two.
Magic sideline ball, Francis dribbles around the three-point line.
Turkoglu made an off-ball cover for Mobley and then slipped out of the three-point line, and Richardson gave Mobley the ball to the open cut.
In a small area, Mobley and Howard formed a block, and Yang Di made up for Mobley again.
Mobley had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he made a direct mid-range backward jumper, Yang Di pounced with his big hand, and almost didn't slap the ball down.
The old cat was taken aback, "Yang Di's hand is so fast!" ”
The shot missed, but Howard, who pushed past Murphy, grabbed the rebound in the frontcourt, and that's the tactic Mobley just thought of - rebounding after not entering.
Howard was the first offensive rebound in the game, and when he saw that Murphy was defending him, and the defensive position was not good, he immediately dribbled the ball with both hands and collided with Murphy with his body as Jandy did.
The powerful Murphy was pushed away by Howard, and Howard leaned on Murphy at this time, ready to jump up and slam the dunk.
rushed over to Yang Di from the side, pressed his basketball with ten fingers, and rewarded him with a hot pot cap.
"Bell!" He grabbed the basket with one hand, but the basketball flew straight away.
Three blocks in one round, and the whole court was boiling!
