Chapter 426 Godfather Chen Yan, the fastest first step
After Chen Yan and Nash continued chatting for a while, they went to the kitchen to help. They had to prepare a large table of dishes tonight, and Alejandra might not be able to handle it if he only relied on him.
Nash is a good family man and often cooks by himself. Chen Yan also has a little knowledge of cooking. With the help of the two of them, a sumptuous dinner quickly appeared on the dining table.
In addition to traditional Thanksgiving foods such as turkey, pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, Indiana pudding, and red plum blossoms, there is also a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes on the table, which is Chen Yan's masterpiece.
There was an extra Chinese dish on the Thanksgiving table, which seemed out of place, but Nash's twin daughters liked it very much. The two little guys devoured it as soon as it started. Chen Yan tasted the turkey with relish.
The turkey from Meili Country has a very spicy taste. Chen Yan was not used to it at the first bite, but after taking a few more bites, Chen Yan got the delicious taste. After being topped with the special soup, it has a unique flavor.
Chen Yan, Nash and Alejandra talked freely at the dinner table, talking about Chinese culture, hobbies and interesting things happening around them. They only did not talk about basketball. Basketball is the job of Chen Yan and Nash. They were resting
When talking about work, it inevitably feels like working overtime.
During the chat, Chen Yan also received a call from Swift. On the phone, Chen Yan said hello to Swift and her parents. Swift originally wanted to invite Chen Yan to go home for Thanksgiving. She had met
Chen Yan's parents have not met her yet, but Chen Yan's schedule this time is too intensive, so she can only arrange it next time.
The happy time is always short-lived. Before leaving, Chen Yan even took a photo with Nash's family as a souvenir. Nash's two daughters, Bella and Laura, each held one of Chen Yan's calves and refused to let him go.
The scene was very funny, and the Nash couple laughed when they saw it.
"Chen, the kids really seem to like you," said Nash's wife, Alle Jandra.
"If you just leave like this, they will probably lose sleep all night." Nash said with a smile.
Chen Yan is also very helpless. This is the trouble of having too much charm, and it affects all men, women, old and young.
Chen Yan could only play the role of daddy for once, taking Bella and Laura back to their room and telling them stories to coax them. Fortunately, Nash's two daughters were very good and fell asleep within a quarter of an hour.
Bella and Laura had already fallen asleep, and Chen Yan was about to go home. The Nash couple sent Chen Yan to the door.
"Children are like this, sometimes they are cute and sometimes they are clingy," Nash said.
"Bella and Laura are the cutest twins I have ever seen. I like them very much." Chen Yan said with a smile.
"They also like you very much, Chen, can you be Bella and Laura's godfather?"
godfather?
Chen Yan was a little confused and didn't realize it for a moment. There is no such thing as a godfather in China.
After some explanations from the Nash couple, Chen Yan probably understood that this is the godfather in China!
The so-called godfather in the United States usually invites a more prestigious and trustworthy person among friends to serve as a second father. This role is also very important in the growth of children, so Chen Yan was invited to be the godfather of his two daughters.
It was Nash's full trust in him.
After more than a year of getting along with each other, Nash has a good understanding of Chen Yan's character and conduct, and is a trustworthy friend.
Chen Yan was surprised. He and Nash had a good relationship, but in his knowledge, the two were not so close.
"It's my honor, it's just..."
Seeing Chen Yan hesitating, Nash quickly asked: "Chen, aren't you willing to be Bella and Laura's godfather?"
Chen Yan waved his hand and said: "Of course not, I just want to be the godfather before I even have a child. It doesn't feel right."
"Hahaha, there's nothing inappropriate about this, we've settled on it."
In this way, Chen Yan became the godfather inexplicably after a Thanksgiving dinner. After returning home, Chen Yan also told the story to Swift. Swift was very happy after hearing this. Nash's two daughters were born.
The name is cute. Swift said that she would have two such lovely daughters in the future. Chen Yan said that he would definitely contribute to this matter, so the topic of conversation started to go off the rails.
....
On the second day, November 24, the Suns faced their next opponent, the Utah Jazz, at home.
The Jazz's overall level is above average in the Western Conference. Their advantage is that their internal and external cores of Boozer and Deron are very stable. Their disadvantage is that they lack a superstar who can truly take over the game. Such a team is in a strong Western Conference.
It is destined to be difficult to break out of the encirclement.
Moreover, the Jazz are a team that relies heavily on home games. Without the bonus of the plateau buff, their strength will be reduced to a certain extent. The reason why Chinese fans find the Jazz difficult is mainly because they have shadowed the Rockets in the past few years.
The reason why the Jazz beat the Rockets every time is actually due to the restraint of the lineup. Both Boozer and Okur can be pulled from the outside to shoot, which makes Dayao very passive. Another offensive strength of the Jazz is the point guard.
In terms of position, point guard is the Rockets' weakest link. When Deron played against Alston, he basically crushed him throughout the game.
However, their lineup cannot be restrained in front of the Suns. The Suns' inside line is flexible enough, and their outside offensive firepower is also more powerful.
At the beginning of the game, Stoudemire relied on his explosive power to help the team get the first opportunity to attack.
In the first round, the Suns' rhythm was not fast. After landing, Nash handed the ball to Chen Yan. Stoudemire came up and made a fake pick-and-roll and immediately passed down.
Chen Yan immediately found Stoudemire with a hit, and the cooperation of the two easily opened up the Jazz's defense. Okur wanted to cover up, but his steps were obviously a beat slower. Stoudemire flew up and hit the rebound, giving the Suns the lead.
0 to 2.
"Don't miss anyone! Keep an eye on your opponent!" Sloan stood up and yelled. The team's first defensive round made the old man dissatisfied.
The first goal in the opening game ignited Stoudemire's desire to attack. He completed the first three attacks of the Suns in the first quarter, including two hard rushes to the frame and a high jump shot. Stoudemire used his best method to score 6 points in a row.
Seeing Stoudemire working so hard on the offensive end tonight, Chen Yan and Nash looked at each other and nodded.
The two mainly focused on supporting and passing the ball in this quarter, leaving the main stage to Stoudemire.
To put it simply, it’s Stoudemire, Nash and Chen Yan as assistants.
Stoudemire also did his best, scoring 15 points, plus 4 rebounds and 1 block in the first quarter. Stoudemire's scoring explosiveness is definitely incomparable to top outside scorers like Kobe and Chen Yan, but he can definitely be considered as an active post player.
It's the first gear.
At the end of the first quarter, the Suns led the Jazz by 8 points 30-22.
In the second quarter, the second team led by Azubuike and Grant Hill beat the Jazz's bench again. Barea was also in good condition. In the two counterattacks, he passed the threatening ball at the first opportunity and accurately assisted his teammates.
Score.
The arrival of "White Chocolate" Williams gave Barea a sense of crisis. It is said that Barea has not slept with his wife for half a month in order to maintain his condition. You must know that Barea's wife is a well-known beauty. She once had sex with her in 2006
Having won Miss Universe of the year, it was really not easy for him to endure.
The Suns' substitutes completed the task brilliantly. When the main players returned, the team's lead had reached double digits. The current score was 30 to 42.
After the return of the main force, Stoudemire's desire to attack was still strong. In the first round, he took one step from the free throw line and forced a three-step layup.
30 to 45.
Boozer is physically strong enough, but his mobility is not on the same level as Stoudemire. If Stoudemire were to face the frame like this, he would basically just watch the ball and sigh.
The fans were very happy to see Stoudemire break out. Of course, what the fans wanted to see more was the trio of Chen Yan, Nash and Stoudemire breaking out together.
However, Chen Yan's desire to attack today is not strong, and Nash is even more like a Buddha. He has only taken 3 shots so far. Nash is such a player. If his teammates can stand up and score, he would rather not take the shot himself. Other teams will
The higher the outside star scores, the happier the fans will be and the more confident they will feel. The opposite is true for the Suns. If one day they see Nash going crazy to score points, it means that the team is in trouble on the offensive end.
Just when everyone thought today was Stoudemire's special performance, Chen Yan suddenly jumped out and stole the spotlight.
Nash held the ball at the top of the arc, and Chen Yan ran from the left corner to the right corner. Using Stoudemire's cover, Chen Yan quickly rushed to the bottom corner.
The Jazz didn't dare to switch defense. Stoudemire was too strong tonight. If the switch caused him to play out of position, it would be for nothing.
It is also easier for teammates to open up opportunities for Chen Yan to become open.
Nash gave the ball to Chen Yan in a tacit understanding, almost as soon as the ball came to him. Chen Yan caught the ball in the bottom corner and made an aiming motion. Kirilenko, who was responsible for marking him, bypassed the screen and rushed towards Chen Yan in three steps and two steps.
go.
Chen Yan successfully deceived Kirilenko into flying into the air with a slight raise of his elbow. Chen Yan was not in a hurry to take action. He waited for Kirilenko to fly behind him and paused for a while before taking action.
"Crack!"
I thought it was a very easy score, but what the fans heard was a crisp block.
In the footage, Kirilenko quickly took off twice and used his ape arm to directly block Chen Yan's shot from behind.
Even Chen Yan was surprised that the ball was blocked. Kirilenko had been completely out of his sight a second ago. At this time, Kirilenko has to mention Kirilenko's abnormal static talent.
, Kirilenko is 206cm tall and has an astonishing wingspan of 228cm, and Kirilenko has good jumping and speed. These talents also make him always comfortable on the defensive end.
Chen Yan was set up by Kirilenko. After blocking the shot, Kirilenko quickly ran towards the frontcourt. After receiving the ball, Boozer looked for Deron. Deron took a step and passed the ball to assist Kirilenko.
Arm dunk succeeded!
With one attack and one defense, Kirilenko suddenly set the Jazz bench on fire. Seeing his cheering teammates, Kirilenko was also very excited and turned around and roared. By coincidence, the direction of his roar was directed at the wrong person.
Chen Yan in the distance, sometimes misunderstandings are caused by a small inadvertent move...
Chen Yan is not a narrow-minded person, but when someone blocked him on the field, he yelled at him. As a young and passionate player, he can't say anything in response, right?
In the next offensive round, Chen Yan and Kirilenko struggled for a while and then turned around and asked for the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right side of the free throw line.
Stoudemire and Dior moved to the weak side and consciously helped him clear space.
Chen Yan leaned against Kirilenko continuously and then suddenly turned towards the bottom corner!
While turning around, Chen Yan dropped the ball to complete the breakthrough, and the action was completed in one go!
Kirilenko wanted to follow, but couldn't!
Chen Yan's first step after turning around was too fast!
The older generation of stars known for their speed, such as Iverson and Tracy McGrady, are no longer at their peak. In the latest media-organized voting for the fastest first step among active players, Chen Yan received more than 50% of the votes, and Chen Yan became
The spokesperson of the new generation's 'quickest first step'.
Chen Yan is not surprised to have this new nickname. His speed value is already the first in the league. Coupled with his explosive power and the skill [Lightning First Step], if stacking so many buffs is not the best,
Take the first step: Chen Yan can stop living.
Because of this nickname, Chen Yan also received the first endorsement of baby diapers in his life. The slogan of the endorsement was "The fastest step, Que's diapers."
Chen Yan's receiving point was not far from the basket. After a few dribbles, Chen Yan started directly to hit the basket!
Carlos Boozer came over and Chen Yan grabbed the ball with one hand and jumped towards him!
After flying into the air, Chen Yan chose to pull the lever to take a shot, but what Chen Yan completed was not a lever layup but a lever dunk!
Chen Yan turned 360 degrees to get out of the way of Boozer and then swung the ball directly into the basket!
"Boom!"
This ball is domineering and elegant, and it looks like the action of the slam dunk contest is used in actual combat.
After landing, Boozer looked at Kirilenko with small sad eyes. It was Kirilenko's loss of position that made Boozer become Chen Yan's backdrop.
When Chen Yan returned to defense, he let out a roar, right in Kirilenko's ear.
The momentum that Jazz had just gained was suppressed by Chen Yan's dunk. However, they didn't know that this was just the beginning of Chen Yan's release of emotions...
