Chapter 713 Welcome to the NBA
The Black Bear plays Sadies Young in the low post, and there is a clear difference in size between the two. Sadies Young is more suitable for defending against the light 4 position, and can also switch to the 3 position, and even some 2 position with not particularly good speed. However, when facing a heavyweight 4 position like the Black Bear, he can't stand it.
Of course, in this league, there are not many No. 4 positions that can really stand up to the Black Bear at the low post. In this league, there is almost no No. 4 position that can stand up to him one-on-one.
Sadison Young couldn't stand it, and Pekovic, who was in the inside, helped him defend.
The Black Bear is also smart, and does not play one or two, and gives the ball to the open White Bear.
White Bear made a step under the basket and dunked with one hand!
The Grizzlies lead 2:0!
Lu Yizhong slowly dribbled over and organized offense at the top of the arc. More and more point guards in the league have become good at shooting, and traditional point guards with obvious defects in shooting have become increasingly difficult to survive. The "Golden Boy" at the 2008 Olympics was already 24 years old. In the three years since he entered the league, his shooting ability has not improved much, his career shooting percentage has never exceeded 40%, and his three-point shooting percentage has never exceeded 35%. Such a guard is extremely unqualified at least in terms of shooting.
It is said that Kidd is "Kidless", but the problem is that Lu Yizhong's shooting is comparable to Kidd, but the era they are in is much different. Not to mention that Kidd's overall and defense are above Lu Yizhong.
Conley defended Lu Yizhong and took a step. For a point guard, the one who was put on the previous step was called Rondo...
The point guard does not have stable shooting ability. Whether it is holding the ball to create opportunities for his teammates or the threat after pick-and-roll, it is much smaller. It is much easier for the opponent to defend, just let you go. If you have the will of you, you can shoot me to death!
Lu Yizhong cooperated with Pekovic and passed the ball to Saidis Young near the free throw line.
Sadison Young used his speed to break through and distributed Ruhr at the basket!
Brewer broke through again, the inside line was too crowded, and he made a mistake...
The ball goes out of the baseline, the Grizzlies have the right to the ball!
Yang Jian smiled and said, "I always feel that the starters of the Timberwolves are not very accurate in shooting!"
Su Qun nodded: "Love was the most accurate among these people. Now it depends on whether No. 1 pick Wiggins can demonstrate stable shooting ability on the outside."
The Grizzlies attacked, and Conley distributed the ball to Xie Kai from the right wing.
Cheers were thunderous, Xie Kai's popularity and his No. 22 PK with Wiggins will be one of the biggest selling points in the game.
Wiggins opened his arms and defended Xie Kai.
Xie Kai looked at the young Wiggins and suddenly remembered that when he entered the league, he was still under 20 years old. Alas, time has passed forever, and before he knew it, he has already reached the third year.
There was no time to sigh, Xie Kai threatened three times, and the other party was unmoved. He stepped tentatively and pressed his shoulders and broke through with his right hand.
Wiggins reacted quickly and immediately blocked Xie's right hand.
Xie Kai leaned on Wiggins, pulled the ball to his left hand, and then slowly, suddenly he quickly, stuck his position and rushed into the penalty area.
Wiggins wanted to use his arm span and height to interfere with Xie Kai's forward route.
Xie Kai held the ball to the middle position between the free throw line and the 3-second zone, and suddenly exerted force from his waist and pushed Wiggins away! He stopped quickly and took action steadily from the middle distance - there is!
Wow—the cheers in the stands were thunderous!
During the first meeting between Xie Kai and Wiggins, Xie Kai used his personal ability to force a single shot!
The Grizzlies lead 4:0!
Yang Jian sighed: "Xie Kai's strength looks much better than this No. 1 pick!"
Su Qun agreed: "Wigkins is still too thin. After he has undergone special strength training, his confrontation will come."
On the Timberwolves, Lu Yizhong was released from the outside line too seriously and couldn't help but make a shot - a blacksmith!
But Sadison Young snatched the long rebound with a clever and gave the ball to Wiggins on the left wing.
Wiggins faced Xie Kai with the ball.
This is the second time the two met one-on-one at the beginning of this game.
Pekovic signaled whether to cover it, Wiggins shook his head and declined... Obviously, he wanted to win one-on-one.
The cheers in the stands immediately rose, and this kind of scene was what the fans had been waiting for for a long time.
Wiggins also had three threats, one fake move and went to the other side to break through. His first step was very fast, which really surprised Xie Kai. After all, this was a player of 203cm tall.
Xie Kai was surprised, but he was not able to deal with it. Although he sighed in his heart that the other party's talent was, he had really seen many talented men. There was no shortage of talented men in this alliance.
After Wiggins made a strong breakthrough, he used his speed to prevent Xie Kai from throwing away. He changed direction backwards and pulled his left hand back, leaned against Xie Kai, and forced himself to pull one - almost hit!
The fans in the stands exclaimed, and the White Bear took the rebound and handed it to Conley to advance.
Xie Kai was also a little surprised because Wiggins was not like the traditional Feitianli wing style, his skills were still tender and rough, and he did not have the ability to turn over jump shots with his back and mature jump shots. However, he used his jump shots just now very skillfully, and his shooting was very soft, and his technical completion was considered to be very high.
Xie Kai put away his mentality of looking at it, because Wiggins has outstanding talent and skills, and he did not become the No. 1 pick by relying solely on his physical talent.
The Grizzlies continued to attack, and the Black Bears had a strong position in the interior, causing a foul by Sadison Young.
The Grizzlies served in the frontcourt, and Conley got the ball, using the White Bears' cover and scored the White Bears.
Bai Xiong held the ball at a high position, and Xie Kai suddenly made an inside cut after bounce!
Bai Xiong distributed the ball to Xie Kai with one hand!
Xie Kai received the ball, held the ball in his left hand and suddenly jumped. Just when everyone thought he was going to shoot, he threw the ball to the old prince in the bottom corner!
Vacant seats!
The old prince shot out in three points - but he missed the iron!
But Xie Kai has a frontcourt rebound!
Xie Kai grabbed the frontcourt rebound and shot him with a feint!
Wiggins and Brewer both took off, and Xie Kai stood up and committed a foul!
Wiggins' foul!
Su Qun smiled and said, "I've been deceived by Xie Kai's experience! Wiggins is paying the tuition fee!"
Wiggins looked at Xie Kai and smiled bitterly, "Did you guess I'll jump?"
Xie Kai did not answer him positively, but smiled slightly: "Andrew, welcome to the NBA!"
Xie Kai wants a free throw, and the Timberwolves requested a timeout!
The Timberwolves have not scored yet, and the pace of the game is all on the Grizzlies, which makes their coach Sanders a little depressed. Of course, he knew that the strength of the two teams was different, but he didn't expect that the opponent was not affected by the award ceremony just now. He was so experienced that he caught them off guard. He was a little worried that if Wiggins was "studying" by Xie Kai like he had just now, it would have an impact on the confidence of the new No. 1 pick.
