One Guard

Chapter 89 : Horror Nine

Rick Carlisle flew to and fro from the sidelines, from the beginning of the game to the present, the Mavericks offense has not been smooth.

Kidd’s physical condition today is really terrible. Now let alone let Kidd score, he looks so strenuous every step he takes on the court.

This is the mark left on every professional player over time. Even if Kidd is one of the greatest point guards in NBA history, time will not become ample for him. At this point, God is fair to everyone.

Kidd slowly took possession of the ball through the half-court. Although he had a huge disadvantage in height, Rondo didn’t seem to worry about Kidd’s offense.

Kidd stood still outside the three-point line, waiting for his teammates to take their place. Nowitzki finally got the upper hand in the confrontation with “Wolf King” Garnett, so the German wanted to stay in position and raise his hand for the ball!

Kidd didn’t hesitate. Instead of using a lob, he hit the ground with a pass. The basketball passed through the crowd and was accurately delivered to Nowitzki. Even though such a pass seems to be nothing great, it’s really not easy to do it like Kidd to be “fast and accurate”.

Of course, the tough KG will not let Nowitzki succeed. He constantly put pressure on the Germans, and his small movements never stopped. In short, how can Nowitzki be uncomfortable, how will Garnett come.

Nowitzki tried to push back two steps, but under the strong will of KG, the German did not push in even one centimeter!

Attack time is limited. After a few attempts without success, the German started looking for someone and planned to pass the ball.

As soon as he raised his head, Nowitzki saw Kidd who had already passed the delicate position to get outside the three-point line. The German did not hesitate and raised his long arm to throw the ball to the outside line. At this time, people discovered that Kidd had sneaked out of a gap!

Kidd’s three-pointers have always been one of the shortcomings criticized, but in fact, in Dallas in the past few years, Kidd’s three-pointers have been getting higher and higher. Last season, Kidd’s three-point shooting percentage even became the second-highest 42% of his career. Therefore, Kidd is absolutely threatening outside the three-point line, and the threat is no smaller than anyone else.

Rondo didn’t rush forward, instead he was ready to grab rebounds from the middle distance or receive a pass from his teammates to counterattack at any time.

“The Celtics emptied Jason directly. Jason didn’t hesitate to take a three-pointer! Oh, the shot was shot. This is the fifth consecutive miss for Jason today! It seems that Jason’s state seems to be today. Something went wrong.” Kenny Smith let out a sigh, and Kidd shook his hand angrily. This veteran, he can’t stand his offensive efficiency.

KG stuck in position and pocketed the defensive basket. After that, he immediately gave the ball to Rondo, who was waiting at the mid-range position. Rondo caught the ball and started up quickly. This extremely physique and abnormal defender directly overtook Old Kidd and killed himself on the front. Under Kidd’s efforts to chase and interfere, he still made a layup easily!

“Pause, pause!” Seeing Rondo easily leaned on Kidd to make a layup, Rick Carlisle hurriedly called the game to a halt.

Kidd, who was stunned by himself and himself, took off the wristband and threw it to the ground. This is the first time Yiyang has seen Kidd lose his temper on the court. From this, one can imagine how frustrated Kidd has been in the past few minutes.

Six minutes into the first quarter, Kidd got 5 chances, but didn’t score a point. His painful calf made Rondo shine on the court, and he couldn’t hold his head up at this historical level point guard.

But no way, the stadium is so cruel. Rondo would not show mercy to Kidd because of his rich resume. On the contrary, guys like Rondo prefer to defeat powerful enemies to enhance their status and value.

Carlisle looked at the big screen at the American Route Center, and the Mavericks have fallen behind by 6 points. If the offense fails a few more times, the points difference may be widened to double digits.

Carlisle has nothing to do, he must make some changes. Yiyang, now is the time to have to shoulder heavy responsibilities.

“Jason, you should rest off the court for a while. Also, get ready to play!” Carlisle did not hesitate. The first arrangement was to replace Kidd with Yiyang.

Kidd has no complaints. As a veteran, he knows that his playing time will not be stable. What’s more, my physical condition is really bad today. Being on the court for a long time will only drag the team back.

Kidd grabbed Yiyang and put his head to Yiyang’s ear. “Be careful of that guy, his physical fitness may be better than you! Don’t take it lightly, those opponents before you are nothing compared to him!”

Yiyang nodded lightly, taking down Kidd’s instructions. Sometimes, Yiyang feels that he is really lucky when he plays next to a historic veteran.

Before 　　 played, Kidd patted Yiyang on the shoulder. Next, it’s up to you, kid.

“Oh? On the Celtics side, Coach Rivers replaced O’Neal with Glenn Davis. The Mavericks changed three people in one fell swoop! Except for Dirk and Tyson, the two inside partners. In addition, all other positions have changed. Also replaced Jason, Jeter replaced Barria, Deshaun Stevens replaced Marion. Today, it is also the first time the veteran Deshawn has played this season. Look. Here, Coach Carlisle wants to change the situation through substitutions.”

Although three people have changed, the fans know that this time the substitution will play the most crucial role, and that is Yiyang. Therefore, when Yiyang received the baseline ball and started to advance towards the opponent’s half, the Mavericks fans did not stingy with their cheers and applause. Everyone is cheering for the No. 1 rookie, hoping that he can make up for the gap left by the poor state of old Kidd.

Raje Rondo, the Celtics starting point guard has been in the limelight in recent years. This odd-tempered No. 9 is transforming from a “giant glue” to a real giant.

As Kidd said, Rondo’s physical indicators are quite good. When he opened his arms horizontally in front of Yiyang, Yiyang actually felt that he was facing not a point guard who was shorter than himself, but an insurmountable wide wall!

Rondo did not neglect Yiyang as a rookie, as a player who has experienced the baptism of the finals. He knew that if he wanted to win, he had to keep his concentration at all times. Even if you are facing a rookie, there is no exception.

Yiyang stopped at a step beyond the three-point line. Not only Rondo, but the entire Celtics defense was very good. He saw DeShawn Stevens running forward and backward, and Terry running through the crowd. But Yiyang didn’t pass the ball, because the Celtics blocked everyone’s passing route very well! Playing the ball rashly will only increase the risk of mistakes.

Yiyang knows that passing the ball alone cannot achieve the goal. He must move and tear the Celtics’ defenses so that his teammates can get a chance.

So Yiyang took the ball back two steps. Then, start to alternate dribbles under the crotch, and the frequency is getting faster and faster. Yellow lightning, ready to break through!

Yiyang suddenly straightened up and placed the ball in his right hand, seeming to intend to break through from the right. However, in the next second, Yiyang quickly slapped the ball to the left, and then kicked his legs violently, and he suddenly plunged to the left.

If you change to another ordinary defender, Yiyang’s sudden change of direction is enough to make him pass his opponent in one step. But Rajon Rondo is not in the category of “ordinary guard”.

The first position with excellent physical fitness moved quickly, and his lateral speed caused Yiyang to take a deep breath.

Coupled with Rondo’s terrifying long arms, Yiyang’s sudden start speed was stopped!

But Yiyang didn’t stop there. Although he was stopped, Yiyang leaned on Rondo’s cylinder and turned to the right again. With this turn, Yiyang used his back to separate Rondo firmly behind him.

Two consecutive moves made Yiyang difficult to get rid of Rondo. He immediately speeded up. Nowitzki pulled to the middle distance and went to the basket. Only “big baby” Glen Davis was waiting www. . com Green Davis did not stick to the basket, but threw it out, hoping to strike back and forth with Rondo, forcing Yiyang to make a shot or make a mistake.

Yiyang’s sense of oppression from Rondo has grown stronger behind him. This No. 9 wearing a green shirt was really fast, and he reattached Yiyang almost instantly.

In the oppressed situation, Yiyang cannot stop the jumper in an emergency, and it is impossible to change direction. If he does this, Rondo will definitely intercept the ball! Don’t forget, his long arms are always on standby.

Seeing Green Davis jump out, Yiyang has only one choice. He suddenly jumped and threw the ball high into the air.

“Big Baby” Davis also jumped up, hoping to catch the basketball. But Davis, who is already a little out of shape, can’t reach the ball at all.

The basketball passed Davis and flew onto Chandler, who was ambushing under the basket. “Boxing champion” is not Davis, Davis can’t jump, boxing champion can jump!

Tyson Chandler leaped high and caught the basketball that was beginning to fall. Then, Chandler slammed his right hand and took off on the spot to complete the air relay coordination.

After the dunk was over, the entire U.S. Route Center Arena exploded. After being frustrated for so long, the Mavericks finally exaggerated!

Chandler pointed to Yiyang to show his gratitude, and the fans applauded Yiyang. But Yiyang frowned on his face.

Just completing an assist, Rondo gave him such a sense of oppression. It is hard for him to imagine what it will be like to play a whole game with such a difficult guy.

Yiyang shook his head, no time to think. The terrifying Green Army No. 9 has already killed with the ball…
