At the end of the first quarter, the Heat trailed the Pistons by two points, 16-18. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After a two-minute break, Yang Di and others returned to the court, and at this time, Van Gundy put Ben Wallace back on the court to rest, and let Oku top in the fifth position.

Also replaced on the court was the Pistons' leading guard Chauncy Billups, replaced by the famous short point guard Atkins, whose official data is 1.80 meters, but he doesn't look that tall at all, and he looks even thinner in the game scene full of long men.

The Pistons opened the ball from the backcourt and Atkins possessed the ball across the halfcourt.

Being short also has the advantage of being short, at least with Atkins' low dribble, the average defender can't bend down to break the ball, and if you want to bend down to break the ball, then you are likely to be cleaned up by Atkins.

The Pistons are also a team that likes to play pick-and-roll, especially when there is a lack of low-post offensive masters, and it is undoubtedly an inevitable choice to launch an offense from the outside and create opportunities for blocking and pick-and-roll.

So Atkins waved his arm and motioned for Oku to put up a high post to block him.

Oku's body is very wide, the effect of blocking and dismantling is not bad, Atkins controls the ball with his right hand and strides to the right, and Yang Di can only abandon Oku to delay Atkins' dribble breakthrough.

When Alston caught up with Atkins, Yang Di immediately turned back and chased Oku who had evacuated beyond the three-point line.

This blocking tactic is very simple, Oku, who received the ball outside the three-point line, raised his hands and made a quick three-point shot.

Yang Di had already prepared in his heart, the starting posture was standard, and his arms were raised quickly to interfere.

Oku was startled, Yang Di's bullet speed was amazing, and his big palm covered his eyes, as if he was about to poke his eyeballs out.

His shooting was also disrupted as a result, and he threw a three-stick shot that was far from the basket and went off the baseline.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Yang Di thought unexpectedly.

Oku is a wonder in the Pistons, how this player can have a good three-point shot on the offensive end, it is incredible in this era of big balls.

The Heat attacked at halftime, and Alston motioned for Malik Allen to receive the ball in the high post.

Malik Allen immediately made a hand-to-hand cover pass for Caron Butler, Caron Butler received the ball and dribbled down, he dribbled forward with his left hand, and his body followed like a vigorous tanuki, and the whole person caused an impact on the Pistons' interior line.

Behind Yang Di, Oku's head was sweating, but he couldn't get out of Yang Di's card position at all.

Then he watched as Butler completed the flying layup, and Larry Brown turned blue on the side.

The Pistons attacked, Atkins missed a jumper, and Yang Di protected the backcourt rebound.

"Tactics No. 5, No. 5!"

After Alston dribbled the ball past half-court, he pretended to direct his players to run over there, shouting tactical slogans in his mouth, and then distributed them to Caron Butler, who was spinning around to receive the ball.

Caron Butler pouted, and after receiving the ball, he changed directions and attacked the Pistons inside.

Dribbled two steps, flicked his wrist, and distributed the ball to Haslem, who was unmarked in the 45-degree elbow area, and Haslem received the ball and made a jumper and hit it steadily.

"Good shot!" Van Gundy nodded in satisfaction.

In the past few months, it has been proved that Haslem is another piece of gold found by the Heat, not only can do rough work, dirty work, strong fighting spirit, and actively grab boards, but also can have a good mid-range jumper, occasionally can attack with the ball in the frame, and do strategy or something in the high post.

Yang Di has the first few conditions, and Yang Di does not have the last few conditions.

So compared to Haslem and Yang Di, in fact, deep down in Van Gundy's heart, he still prefers Haslem. It's just that Yang Di can always create some unexpected situations on the court, plus the statistics are not bad, Pat Riley clearly wants to develop him, so he has to tolerate some things that Yang Di does that often provoke him.

Stan Van Gundy is still struggling with the allocation of playing time for the inside, and Pistons head coach Larry Brown doesn't know how envious he is, whether it is Youngdy or Haslem, they are players who are more in line with the Pistons' tastes. Larry Brown looked at Yang Di, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth on the field, and sighed again and again, "The pearl is secretly cast, the pearl is secretly cast!" ”

......

At the same time, the league has identified the stars selected for the All-Star Game and the first and second graders who will participate in the NBA Rookie Challenge.

This year's NBA All-Star Game was held at Staples Arena in Los Angeles.

It was almost ten days later, a break in the middle of the NBA's long season.

Yang Di and Yao Ming were both selected for the Rookie Challenge, among them, Yao Ming was also selected for the position of starting center in the West, since Yao Ming squeezed out O'Neal to become an All-Star starter last year, fans have looked down a lot this year, which has been numb, who makes them have more Chinese fans?

At this time, the 02 class of players, in addition to Yao Ming, are also known as the Suns' Stoudemire and the Spurs' Ginobili, and the rest such as Carlos Boozer, Jarich, Prince, Dunleavy and the like are mostly not much exposed.

And the 03 players, in terms of news exposure, completely surpassed the 02 players.

Among the selected players, Yang Di didn't use much, and all kinds of negative news came all the way forward, and he kept off-the-field news. There are also James, Anthony and Wade, who have become the core of the rebuilding of their respective teams, and the likes of Hinrich, Bosh and Carman have also performed well in their own and are known to fans.

The Heat, who had three All-Star selections at once, were called draft winners, especially Haslem, who was spotted by the Heat without participating in the draft, and the growth of half a season has played a huge role in the Heat's current stable record.

As for Yang Di's selection, there is no problem at all with the second rebounding and second blocking data among his rookie players, not to mention that his playing time is still short. The only thing that doesn't know for sure is whether he'll be the first-year starter in the Rookie Challenge.

......

At 9:17, the Pistons finally scored second in the first field game, trailing the Heat by three points 20-23, and Larry Brown was still firmly seated on the Diaoyu Tai, with no intention of replacing Big Ben and Billups.

The Heat attacked, and the outside transmission consumed a lot of time, and after Alston failed to break through, he retreated to the three-point line and hoisted the ball to Yang Di, who was in the main position of the low post.

Alstom's original intention was to let Yang Di receive the ball first to stabilize the formation, and it was best to give him the ball again.

However, Yang Di rarely received the ball in the low position, stuck with the burly Oku, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, turned around in a low position, dribbled the ball with his right hand and walked to the bottom line, his feet slipped, and his body instantly shifted to the side.

"What?"

Oku lost his position, and when it was too late to adjust his position, Yang Di rushed to the basket, jumped up, grabbed the basketball with both hands and put it underneath, and dodged Prince, who came to make up for the defense.

Then he raised his hands suddenly, pressed the ball into the basket with his backhand back dunk, and the whole person still hung on the basket to stabilize his body.

Landed, ignoring the stunned Prince, he high-fived Alston and quickly retreated.

"It's not bad to dribble!"

Larry Brown groped his chin and felt that Yang Di was a really good rookie, much better than Darko Mirisic.

The Pistons attacked the position, and Atkins hit a step-back jumper, and the Pistons still trailed by three points at 22-25.

After a few more minutes, Big Ben and Billups returned to the court at the same time, and the Heat also rotated players, with Odom and Grant on the court, and Malik Allen and Jandy off the floor.

Yang Di shook his head, a game like this can basically only rely on hugging his thighs, anyway, his court contribution value can only be like this every night.
