Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The Info Warriors are third in the league with 35 wins and 15 losses, followed by the Suns with 33 wins and 17 losses, and the Heat with 30 wins and 20 losses.

The Warriors, as a Young Guard, have risen to the top of a bunch of league powerhouses, which is admirable.

This season, the Heat also experienced a change of coach, with Stan Van Gundy's poor record at the beginning of the season making a scapegoat, and Pat Riley taking over the full division in time, and then quickly scored a series of victories to improve the record to second place in the East.

The Cavaliers, Bulls, Wizards and Bucks in the East, the Warriors and Grizzlies in the West, a large number of core players in the league are under the age of 25, known as the Young Guard.

At the same time, there are still some playoffs that have not made it to the top eight, but because of the large number of young players, they are still full of youth and energy.

On February 8, the Warriors traveled to Washington.

The day was against the Wizards, who currently have a 50 percent win rate and are a very competitive team in the East.

The team's star Gilbert Arenas, a former star from the Warriors, is just 24 years old this year, but he has already scored 29.8 points a night and become one of the league's top scorers.

In addition, Young's former teammate, Caron Butler, is now on the Wizards.

The two haven't seen each other for a while, shaking hands and hugging each other before the game starts, each for only two or three years, but it seems like a long time has passed, things are wrong, and it is embarrassing.

"You and Wade have both grown into superstars in the league, and when you first entered the league, I'm afraid many people didn't expect this."

"It's still a long way from being a superstar, but it's true that you're an All-Star." Yang Di responded with a smile.

'But it's not going to be an easy win, we're at home, we've got the full squad and we've made some preparations and changes to that.

"I'm looking forward to playing you too."

The two chatted for a few more words and then parted, and on the field, the fans in Washington cheered enthusiastically in support of the home team.

The camera of the crane arm moved over, and one camera was aimed at Yang Di.

The clear black number eight stood on the court, his hands were crossed at his waist, the hideous tattoos on his arms were not obvious in the light, the muscles were clearly visible, the calves were slender, and the whole person looked very majestic.

Yang Di is a perfect inverted triangle figure, like a bodybuilder.

Since he was injured last year, Yang Di has been wearing knee pads, the knee pads are just above the knee, and they are exposed from the shorts, and it feels like Yang Di is wearing a pair of tight pants inside, which has also become Yang Di's standard and has been sought after by many people.

The Wizards fielded the starting lineup: PG Gilbert Arenas, SG Caron Butler, SF Antoine Jamison, PF Jared Jeffries, C Brandon Haywood.

The Warriors lineup has changed, and after Derrick Fisher returned, he returned to the starting position, with the old fish as the PG, and the SG as Byron Davis, SF Dunleavy, PF Young, and C Adonal Fayer.

Tyson Chandler contracted the flu prior to this game and will miss the game, staying on a drip in San Francisco and possibly missing the Warriors' upcoming game against the Pacers.

At the start of the game, Yang Di jumped the ball to win against Heywood.

Although Yang Di is marked as a power forward, after he really plays, he is in a deeper position, and he can't move Brandon Haywood when he comes up.

The latter stretched out his hand and held it high, restrained by Yang Di's domineering strength.

The 27-year-old Brandon Haywood played for the Wizards for the first few years of his career, and with his outstanding physical fitness and tenacious fighting attitude, he became the blue-collar interior representative of the league, and it was his responsibility to defend Yang Dee.

But Yang Di was too strong, Fisher hoisted the ball in time, and Yang Di received the ball with a back.

It slammed into Heywood's chest, knocking him back a small step.

It was this small step of space that Yang Di turned around and bounced to the ground, holding the basketball high and preparing to dunk.

Heywood was very helpless, and his first reaction was to jump up and interfere with Yang Di, Yang Di stood in place with the ball and did not move, and then strengthened after playing a time difference, which instantly caused Heywood's entire body to be pressed.

The referee's whistle blew for a defensive foul on Haywood.

Less than 20 seconds after the game started, Yang Di made a foul on the Wizards' inside, which was a disaster for the Wizards, and how to defend Yang Di after that.

Head coach Eddie Jordan looked at the bench, and the bald Michael Ruffin also looked quite fierce, so he could have topped it up a bit, right?

The Warriors serve on the sideline, and Davis controls the ball from the outside, signaling for the players to open up space.

"Smack!"

With two consecutive dribbles with a low hand, Byron Davis broke through with the ball

Yang Di moved sideways to catch the ball and turned to face Haywood to make a probe attack.

Haywood couldn't understand Yang Di's dynamics, and took a small step back on the spot, Yang Di immediately rose from the ground and chose a jump shot directly in the middle distance.

The shot was hit, and the Warriors led 2-0.

Looking at Yang Di's shooting is particularly stable, he generally does not choose strong shots, and as his step-back jumper and footwork under the basket become more and more sophisticated, it is more difficult for defenders to defend.

Switching offense and defense, Arenas dribbled across the halfcourt.

At this time, Arenas was stronger than when Yang Di first joined the alliance, not only did his ability break through to the S level, but he also mastered a terrifying offensive ability.

His pull-up jump shot is an unsolvable skill of this period.

In the face of Fisher's defense, Arenas easily dribbled the ball in his hip and changed direction in front of his body, then made a sharp stop and made a high jumper.

Fisher defended a little far and jumped up to defend in a very standard position.

"Huh!"

Hollow into the frame.

Yang Di was surprised, Arenas's offense was crisp and neat, and compared with Kobe, Maddy, Iverson and other offensive superstars, it was not weaker at all.

"His way of shooting is also very labor-saving, and sometimes he is in good shape, and he takes 30 shots in a game, and his hand shape will not change." Assistant Coaches Ron Adams and Montgomery said.

"yes, I think he's going to have a very long career, and the Warriors did miss out on a great player."

"It can't be said that according to reason, if Arenas is still in the Warriors, we may not get Yang Di, nor Byron, and we will not even build the team with Yang Di as the core, nor will we achieve today's results, everything is already arranged by fate."

"Where there is loss, there must be gain."

Off the field, the two coaches chatted about philosophy, and on the field, the two young guards from the east and west officially clashed, and the scene was very lively.
