I'm really not a 3D player

Chapter 12 There is something about this lever
The auditorium suddenly fell silent, and the fans were extremely aggrieved by Sun Yi's hat grabbing and chasing three-pointers.

The home team finally managed to hit a climax, which gave them a sense of excitement, but then it was gone in the blink of an eye, which would be uncomfortable for everyone.

Meanwhile, a senior scout among the fans was scribbling in his notebook.

"He has good physical fitness, excellent defensive awareness, and has three-point shooting ability. Other aspects need to be investigated."

After the scout finished writing the scout report, he thought about it and felt that his boss would be interested in this player. In this way, he completed his task and continued to watch the game in a happy mood.

On the field, Griffin was furious. He never expected that he would be continuously deflated by this little-known Huaxia kid.

This is his home field, his stage!

It can be said that this preseason game was specially prepared for Griffin, otherwise the attention would not be so great.

The original script was that Griffin played epic statistics in front of many scouts, agents and media reporters, defeating the Wildcats led by the Southern District scoring champion Stephen Curry and consolidating his status as the No. [-] pick in the draft.

But what Griffin didn't expect was that he and Curry were not the protagonists, but instead became stepping stones, making Sun Yi the focus of the audience.

"Fack! That guy just got lucky!"

Griffin vowed to smash the Wildcats to the rim and get back into the spotlight.

On the other side, Curry and Sun Yi high-fived and exchanged a few words with each other.

"Cool! The cap grab just now was too exaggerated, and my pass is not bad, I knew you could make it." Curry said excitedly, shaking his head.

"It's really good. The passing is very smooth. You have the talent to play point guard." Sun Yi praised.

"Of course, I'm a talented player."

Sun Yi looked at the extremely stinky Curry and didn't want to continue the topic, so he turned around and went back to defense.

Curry followed closely behind, and said in a joking tone: "Sun, you speak so nicely, so let's say a few more words!"

Sun Yi ignored it and returned to his defensive area, waiting for the Speedy team to attack.

On the Wildcats bench, assistant coach Smith recalled the previous offense and defense, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

"It's incredible. This is his debut. His ability to adapt to the game is amazing!"

Although it was only a pre-season match, both sides were very angry, and the intensity of the game was not low.

This is also the root cause of Assistant Smith's emotion.

McCropp glanced at the "uninformed" Jennings and expressed his opinion.

"This child is very capable of learning and adapting. We have seen it in the past few months. It is not worth making a fuss about.

The only thing worthy of praise is that this little guy has developed three-pointers, which is very important to us and can enrich our tactics. "

Assistant coach Smith nodded after hearing this, and felt that the reason why he could not be the head coach might be that he could not fully analyze the essence of the matter.

"Let Mike go to pinch Griffin, free Sun, and better play his defensive ability." McCropp continued.

After hearing this, assistant coach Smith immediately came to the sidelines to give instructions to the players.

The game continued, the Speed ​​​​team sent the baseline ball, and Bilson quickly advanced to the frontcourt after receiving the ball.

Just after halftime, he passed the ball out, and Griffin, the core of the team, launched the offense.

As soon as Griffin received the basketball in the high post area, he was double-teamed by the Wildcats and was unable to force a breakthrough, preparing to pass the ball out.

With his vision blocked, he vaguely saw his teammate running towards the basket and immediately passed the ball.

At this moment, Sun Yi came out of nowhere, intercepted the basketball in the air, and dribbled toward the frontcourt.

"Damn it!" Griffin cursed secretly, and retreated quickly.

Sun Yi dribbled the ball across the half court while observing the position of his teammates, and quickly passed the ball.

Curry received the pass, dribbled to the outside of the three-point line, made a fake move to sway the defender, sprinted towards the basket, and scored an easy layup.

Griffin was a little annoyed and signaled his teammates to pass the ball to him more.

Bilson did not go against Griffin's wishes and sent the ball inside with a lob pass.

White Monster received the pass and was immediately flanked by two Wildcats.

This time Griffin didn't admit to being cowardly. He was holding back his strength and urgently needed to prove his strength.

Therefore, Griffin used his shoulder to push away Mike Cullen, released the ball and started to break into the penalty area.

Whiteside immediately followed up and defended closely while raising his arms to interfere.

Griffin didn't fight hard, turned to the left and shook the big white side, then immediately switched the dribbler to turn right and came to the basket, making an easy layup.

The audience once again burst into warm applause and cheers, believing that the familiar "White Monster" was back.

Scouts on the scene also praised the offensive style.

If Griffin only had strong physical fitness, he would not be the favorite for the No. [-] pick. His excellent inside skills are also a plus for him.

Back on the field, the Wildcats attack.

After Curry and Da Bai edged the pick-and-roll, they broke into the three-point line.

When Griffin saw his teammate being blocked, he immediately switched defense to block Curry's breakthrough route.

"The core players of the two teams are facing each other again. I don't know if Stephen will play singles this time. Let's wait and see!" Brin said expectantly.

But what happened next shattered Brin's expectations.

Curry didn't use small to hit big, but threw the ball to the center.

Dabaibian, who cut inside, received the pass, carried Bilson to the penalty area, and threw the ball.

Bang!

The basketball bounced out of the hoop and missed!
At this moment, Sun Yi, wearing the No. 10 jersey, quickly rushed to the basket, soared into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air with both hands and dunked it into the basket.

When Griffin saw this scene, he angrily accused his teammates of not getting into position and missing the backcourt rebound.

Valdes was also very helpless, so he could only bear the blame silently.

In the matchup, Valdez found that the Wildcats' No. 10 knew his style of play very well.

This guy is able to cleverly use his bad defensive habits to get rid of the defense, making him difficult to defend.

Regarding this point, Valdez would not believe his teammates even if he said it. The most important thing is that he wants to save face and refuses to admit that he cannot guard a newcomer.

The Speed ​​​​team attacked, and Griffin reached for the ball with his back against Whiteside in the high area on the right.

Seeing this, Bilson immediately passed the ball.

The moment Griffin caught the ball, Sun Yi also ran over, forming a pincer attack with Da Bai Bian.

"Fake! Why did this guy come here again? It's so disgusting!"

Griffin was so depressed that he could only raise the ball with both hands, waiting for his teammates to respond.

Sun Yi didn't want to give the Speedy team a chance to respond, so he immediately pressed Whiteside, poking the ball away with quick eyesight and hands.

After the basketball was knocked away, Sun Yi immediately rushed forward, picked up the basketball on the floor, and quickly ran towards the front court.

Griffin was furious in his heart, turned around and chased quickly, trying to save face.

The two of them were chasing each other one after another.

The fans in the audience were extremely excited, they liked to see this kind of scene the most.

Seeing Sun Yi rushing to the basket and lifting the ball for a layup, Griffin immediately jumped up and stretched his arms to block the shot.

"Come on! I want to avenge the time I was caught with a peg board hat." Griffin kept growling in his heart.

Knowing that Griffin was chasing after him, Sun Yi wanted to pass the ball, but found that his teammates couldn't keep up in time, so he had to end the fast break by himself.

"I don't want to be the backdrop!"

Sun Yi, who was flying in the air, took the ball back and waited for the opportunity to make a shot while it was falling.

"Griffin's defense is very good, the No. 10 player either violated or was blocked. I can't think of other results." Brin analyzed.

When Sun Yi was about to hit the ground, he suddenly exerted strength from his waist and threw the ball towards the backboard.

At this time, Griffin had already landed, and he could not interfere with Sun Yi even if he stretched out his hand.

After the basketball hits the board, it bounces into the basket!
This pull rod is really something!

The fans in the auditorium let out a burst of exclamation in unison.

"My God, this lever is too extreme and wonderful!"

"It's unbelievable. Griffin's defense is completely impenetrable, but he can make such an extreme pull!"

"I thought I was a rookie, but I didn't expect to be a king!"

……

At the same time, in the on-site commentary seat, after being slapped in the face, Brin admitted his mistake frankly.

"Good shot! Very extreme drawbar. Player No. 10 not only has strong core strength, but also has excellent ability to stay in the air. I take back my previous words."

"It's really wonderful. We all underestimated this young man. He is really a formidable young man." Miller echoed.

At the basket, Griffin was unwilling, thinking that this guy was lucky, and let him score another goal.

"I won't have such good luck next time!"

After adjusting his mentality, Griffin ran to the frontcourt to participate in the offense.

Using the pick-and-roll, he cut into the basket and dunked, saving some face.

In the subsequent games, the two sides were still inseparable.

The Wildcats rely on pass and cut cooperation, score frequently, and firmly control the rhythm of the game.

The Speed ​​​​team relied on Griffin's singles, and after encountering a double-team, assisted other teammates to score, without widening the point difference.

In this way, at the end of the first half, the Wildcats led the Rapids by 45 points 40-5.

During the intermission, the head coaches of the two teams raced against time to arrange tactics.

"Blake, reduce singles in the second half and use more pick-and-rolls to save your energy. We need you to lead the team to victory at critical moments."

Jeff Kapoor does not want his disciples to be affected by the opponent's offensive rhythm and consume excessive energy.

Griffin nodded in understanding.

Although he wants to compete with Sun Yi, winning the game is more important.

On the other side, Wildcats head coach McClop is also arranging tactics.

"We defended Griffin very successfully in the first half, and we continued to double-team him in the second half. The Speedy's role players will not be as accurate as they were in the first half. Once they lose their aim, we have a chance to open the gap. "

Although role players can occasionally play the role of surprise soldiers, they have a fatal flaw, that is, their performance is very unstable and they are easy to lose the chain at critical moments.

After McClopp arranged the defensive tactics, he continued to arrange the offensive tactics.

"In the second half of the game, we should cooperate more, run more, pass more, and play out our passing and cutting."

The players of the Wildcats nodded one after another to express their understanding, and then seized the time to rest and recover their strength.

Not long after, the short 15-minute intermission ended and the second half began.
