Chapter 10 Preseason Begins(2/2)
After the game started, Griffin took advantage of the Wildcats' defense before it could take shape. He rushed into the penalty area like a tank, jumped on one foot, flew in the air to receive the pass from his teammate, and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.
"Blake-Griffin!"
The DJ at the scene yelled heartbreakingly.
The audience burst into thunderous applause, and cheers and shouts resounded throughout the arena.
"I like the way he plays so much, it's full of violent aesthetics, it's so cool!" Westbrook praised.
He feels that if he partners with Griffin, his assist data will definitely rise. A triple-double per game is nothing.
Durant on the side nodded in agreement with Westbrook's point of view.
He can see that Griffin's physical fitness is good enough to play in the NBA, but he is simply a bug in the NCAA.
Back on the court, the Wildcats quickly organized their offense.
Curry used Whiteside's screen to hit a three-pointer.
In the next round, Griffin continued to play hard inside, but was interfered by Whiteside and failed to score.
Sun Yi grabbed the rebound and passed it to Curry to advance.
The Speedy retreated very quickly and failed to allow the Wildcats to play a fast break.
Curry dribbled to the outside of the three-point line, waved, and signaled Whiteside to come out and cooperate with the pick-and-roll.
The moment Big White left the penalty area, Curry hit the ball straight to the basket.
After receiving the pass, Sun Yi, who was cutting through the air, rushed to the basket, wiped the board and scored the ball.
5:2!
Looking back, Griffin was double-teamed in the low post and had no choice but to pass the ball out.
Valdes received the pass and looked at Sun Yi in front of him, feeling quite good.
"I'm so lucky. I faced a new guy in the first game of the new season. It seems like it's time for me to eat dumplings."
Immediately, Valdez prepared to perform a triple threat move to tease the newcomer in front of him.
Sun Yi saw the guy in front of him froze on the spot with a silly smile, and immediately started to take out the ball.
"If you don't even protect the ball, what on earth is this guy doing for fun!"
After successfully stealing the ball, Sun Yi took the lead and rushed inside and scored an easy layup.
The ball is transferred and the Speedy attack.
Griffin felt that his teammates were not very reliable, so he decided to fight on his own.
After he came to the mid-range area on the right, he directly faced Whiteside's defense and shot a mid-range jumper.
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed.
The Wildcats launched a counterattack, Curry quickly advanced with the ball, and Sun Yi and Whiteside quickly followed up on both sides.
Griffin, who had retreated to the penalty area, saw the Wildcats' three-man fast break and was unable to stop them. He could only stay in the penalty area and wait for opportunities.
Curry broke into the penalty area, was intercepted by Griffin, and immediately passed the ball to Sun Yi, who cut in from the right.
Sun Yi received the pass and took three steps to prepare for a layup.
During this process, he deliberately tilted his head back, caught a glimpse of Griffin following behind him from the corner of his eye, and immediately took the ball back and threw it in the air to the left.
"Damn it! Fortunately, I paid attention, otherwise it would have become a backdrop." Sun Yi praised his carefulness.
On the court, Whiteside, who followed up from the left, rose into the air, grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked it into the basket.
Under the basket, Griffin picked up the basketball on the floor, glanced at the Wildcat players who were high-fiving in celebration, and smacked it angrily. He felt like he was being played by the three Wildcat players.
"These guys must have done it on purpose. They want to embarrass me. Damn it! I must take revenge!"
On the next possession, an angry Griffin motioned for his teammates to pass the ball to him.
The players of the Oklahoma Sooners didn't dare to offend the team's star player.
Defender Bilson quickly hoisted the ball inside.
After Griffin caught the ball, he used his nimble steps to lift the ball and sway his shoulders to hit Whiteside. Then he turned to the basket, jumped high, and made a powerful one-handed dunk.
At the same time, Sun Yi, who rushed back to help defend, wanted to sneak attack from behind, but he did not have enough bounce and failed to block the basketball.
After scoring the goal, Griffin turned around and taunted Sun Yi behind him.
"Asian boy, basketball is not a sport you should play. Your physical fitness will not have any impact on me."
Sun Yi clenched his hands and retorted tit for tat.
"Then you have to be careful. Don't be careless. After all, there are so many people watching. Don't cry when you are embarrassed."
"Ha! Boy, your courage is commendable. I really hope you can blame me, but don't let me down."
After Griffin finished speaking, he immediately ran towards the frontcourt. He had already seen the Wildcats players surrounding him. If he continued to act arrogantly, he might be beaten by the group.
Sun Yi looked at Griffin's retreating figure and didn't feel angry in his heart.
Having experienced the keyboard warrior era, his heart will not be so fragile and he will be immune to most trash talk.
And trash talking is part of the game.
"Then we will prove it with practical actions!"
