Chapter 629: Battle No. 1
Piracy detected! "Toot ~"
When the whistle blew, the referee pointed at Yang Di, "Interfere with the ball!" ”
Yang Di pursed his lips and did not argue with the referee, but high-fived Fisher, Danny Granger and others, encouraged each other, and retreated.
The Warriors' offense, Yang Di pocketed low to the upper line to cover.
Fisher didn't dribble and gave it to Ray Allen, who held the ball and cooperated with Yang Di to block and dismantle, and after blocking, he dribbled to the left side to break through, and Greg was blocked by Yang Di.
Ray Allen shook his head and looked, two points from a distance, and a pull-up jump shot.
Yang Di rushed in, was blocked by Novitsky card position, and desperately opened his arms to stop Yang Di.
"Bell!"
After the shot was missed, the rebound was contested by Dampier and Chandler.
The two were similar in ability to scramble, and the rebound flew out again, and Josh Howard jumped high to protect it.
Josh Howard pushed through the half, didn't ask for a pick-and-roll, faced Danny Granger, turned around and turned his back to the low post single.
"Bang! Bang! ”
After two consecutive bumps, Josh Howard knocked away Danny Granger, who was a little less powerful than him, and turned his back to shoot a jumper.
Granger jumped up and couldn't touch the basketball, and Josh Howard threw his arms high and took a shot.
"Huh!"
Still hits!
7 to 6, in the blink of an eye, the Mavericks overtook by one point.
"That's amazing!"
The layman looks at the excitement, but Montgomery and Ron Adams deeply feel the trickiness of the Mavericks, this team is in particularly good shape right now, although there is only one supergiant in the team, but the players in other positions are performing very well, and the scoring means are balanced, and the tactics are complex and changeable.
Youngdy passed to Danny Granger, who broke through to split the ball, but Ray Allen didn't catch it and was cut off by Greg, adding a turnaround for the Warriors.
The Mavericks attacked, Terry passed the ball horizontally, no one answered, and it was also a turnover.
Then Youngdy missed a jumper and Terry's layup missed, and the two sides each played iron for a while, and Danny Granger caused a foul on Josh Howard, and the game went into a mandatory timeout.
……
Yang Di sat on the field, but his thinking was very clear, and after passing training, he seemed to have a stronger reading ability for the game.
The handling of some balls just now was more decisive.
Although the number of assists has not increased, Yang Di feels that the game is more fluid.
Since Byron Davis' injury, the Warriors' organization has been a problem, and Yang Di is thinking of improving his passing skills to build himself into a transit point for the Warriors and better distribute the ball.
In the long run, a player who can't pass the ball will be much less threatening in key moments.
Yang Di's aim is to be a player that the enemy can't see through.
After the timeout, the Mavericks made adjustments, with Devin Harris coming on as a substitute and the Mavericks coming on with two aggressive guards and two engines to push.
Devin Harris is 24 years old, entering his third season in the league and honing his propulsive ability.
On the Mavericks, Devin Harris is the fastest on the half-court dribble, and he's got to the point where he can get the ball in one place, and normally a defender can't break the ball one-on-one while he's dribbling, unless it's a sneak attack or a two-man package.
At half-time, Harris faced Ray Allen.
The young man crossed his crotch, pretended to break through to the left with the ball, and suddenly turned to the right in front of his body, and Ray Allen reacted quickly and still stood in front of him.
Nowitzki came up to block and Harris pulled the ball with a nice turn and broke through from the left.
Devin Harris held the ball in his left hand, and Yang Di moved over to block Devin Harris, delaying his attack, Harris took a step, and Yang Di spread his hands like an eagle, and the space was very small.
Harris made an abrupt stop and pulled out, Nowitzki cut in, and Jandy moved laterally.
At this time, Devin Harris had space and opportunities to shoot, but his long-range shooting ability was average, coupled with Jandy's deterrence, he did not choose to shoot in the end, and when Nowitzki turned around, he returned the ball to Nowitzki.
Nowitzki received the ball in the elbow area, dribbled the ball to his shoulder, and hit Yang Di.
"Bang!"
Yang Di didn't move, Nowitzki landed on one foot, turned and threw a jumper.
The amplitude of the upper half of the leaning back was particularly large, Yang Di jumped up to interfere, he had already raised his arm high and shot, as if the basketball had just crossed his fingertips.
Yang Di felt that if he had grown a little longer, he would have been able to cover this shot.
"Huh!"
Nowitzki hit a two-pointer and quickly stepped back.
Yang Di took the initiative to ask for the ball, also in the position of the elbow area, three threats to attack, and then stepped out with his right foot, walked to the bottom line and turned around to shoot, hit.
A response shot ignited the excitement of Oracle Arena, and the fans cheered loudly.
Two rounds later, Ray Allen hit a three-pointer from the outside, and the Warriors overtook the score, and the game entered the white-hot stage.
At the end of the first quarter, the Warriors led the Mavericks by just one point, 26-25.
Last season, the two teams were opponents in the Western Conference Finals, and Mavericks fans hated the Warriors to the core.
The main players of the two teams were rested, and the clash between substitutes was also enjoyable.
Devin Harris hit a pull-up jumper, and after the second quarter, the Mavericks took the lead.
"The Mavericks' bench players are in really good shape."
Yang Di was also surprised to see Devin Harris's speed, compared to last season, Harris has obviously improved, especially in terms of breaking through with the ball, and the straight line acceleration is extremely fast.
At 7 minutes and 02 seconds in the second quarter, Yang Di reappeared.
......
Through mid-range and secondary offense under the basket, Yang Di scored 17 points before halftime, which was also the most points of the two teams.
Nowitzki showed a hint of surprise, Yang Di's offensive level is simply a step a year, last year, obviously the shooting was not as accurate as it is now, but by now, he can basically be regarded as an interior player with top skills, but he still has a monster-like body.
This stark contrast has created a unique player with nothing like this in the history of the league.
In the draft after he entered the league, few people used him as a model.
The Warriors led into the second half, and at halftime, Oracle Arena challenged for the Basketball Shooting Jackpot.
A big fat man from San Francisco caught the ball and threw a shot into the midfield, which blew up the entire Oracle Arena.
"it!"
Yang Di was also taken aback, dumbfounded, at this distance, even if their NBA players came to shoot, they had no hit rate, they could only shoot blindly with a blind cat hitting a dead mouse.
Unexpectedly, this unattractive white fat man actually threw in at once and won the $25,000 grand prize set by the team.
The Warriors players ran to the court to hug him as if he had hit the ball.
