The first plug-in in basketball

Chapter 8 Stephen's New Pick-and-Roll Man

Blake Griffin looked at the opponent in front of him with some dissatisfaction.

Lin Yi's appearance is quite delicate, but in Griffin's view, this kind of thin and tall person is not suitable for playing basketball, and this delicate face is considered a mother in Griffin's view, hum!Not every Chinese big man is Yao.

Griffin decided to let the Chinese big man experience the intensity of the NCAA.

The Wildcats served from the backcourt, and Stephen Curry advanced with the ball. Griffin suddenly thought why he didn't like Lin Yi, because like Curry, he didn't have a strong body to play basketball, but when he was a freshman last year, Stephen left Griffin with many bad memories.

Including today, the atmosphere at home has been driven by his dunks and headboards, but Stephen can use consecutive three-pointers to quiet the home fans.

Can this kind of basketball played in hiding be called basketball?

While Blake Griffin was still in his thoughts, Lin Yi left his position and ran to a high position.

whispering sound!Knowing that it was a pick-and-roll, Blake Griffin stepped forward to block Curry's breakthrough route. Perhaps because of the inertia of facing the Wildcats, everyone would block Stephen Curry's route. Lin Yi quietly disappeared from Griffin's sight at this moment.

Curry failed to get a breakthrough opportunity. He was jointly defended by Griffin and the Speed ​​​​team point guard David Bilson, but Stephen Curry was not in a hurry.
Lin Yi smiled. Could it be that I am going to play the role of Clay today?It seems that Curry’s fondness for back passes has been cultivated since he was a child. In fact, most of Curry’s career mistakes are related to his likes to play fancy passes, but this is also a rhythm of Curry’s basketball.

Lin Yi was already ready to catch the ball. He was standing at the top of the three-point line. His pick-and-roll was not dead, because Griffin took a step forward, so he rolled it ahead of time.

Lin Yi steadily received Curry's back pass. This was a classic high-position pick-and-roll tactic. Lin Yi took a deep breath, and then raised the ball above his head. His posture was very standard, and his shot was extremely fast.

Feels good, this ball has it!
Swish!
Hollow into the network!

McCropp on the sidelines applauded Lin Yi's first shot. Before Lin Yi came on the field, he had been worried that Lin Yi would be nervous and not play well. After all, this was his debut, but McCropp felt that his worries were unnecessary, because Lin Yi's ability to read the game was very good.

The home fans of the Rapids were a little confused. Is this a big pitcher?

But everyone quickly reflected that, after all, big pitchers are not uncommon now.

"He can shoot threes!" David Bilson reminded Griffin.

"I know, this kind of inside line that floats on the outside is my favorite, give me the ball!" Blake Griffin nodded. This kind of inside line that floats on the outside generally has weak inside skills, especially confrontation, and he is seven feet tall, so he must not be fast on his feet.

The Speed ​​​​team's offense, David Bilson decisively handed over the basketball to Blake Griffin who asked for the ball in the high post. Griffin did not go to the low post to ask for the ball because he was afraid of being double-teamed.

Few people can defend Griffin's high face-up singles in the NCAA, because the players he played against were not as tall, as fast, and as strong as him. Griffin saw that Lin Yi hadn't blocked his right hand, so he directly drilled in with the ball. It has to be said that Griffin's starting speed was quite fast. Griffin believed that Lin Yi must be left behind by him. In order to save energy, he chose not to dunk, but to layup.

There was a sudden exclamation from the fans at the scene.

These fans are really, the ball hasn't been scored yet, what are they cheering for?Griffin thought to himself.

But the fans were not cheering because of Griffin's goal, but a big hand suddenly appeared behind Griffin.

It can be said to block the sky and the sun!

Lin Yi's super long wingspan played a role at this moment. Of course he followed Griffin's footsteps, and Lin Yi was waiting for this moment. His take-off height was not high, but it was enough to block the ball.

Snapped!
Nailboard big risk!

The invincible Blake Griffin actually took a risk!
And it's still nail-biting.

Lin Yi snatched the rebound that he had taken by himself. He wanted to dribble and launch a counterattack, but after hesitating for a moment, he handed the ball to Stephen Curry, and he followed suit.

The players of the Speed ​​​​team failed to all retreat, and David Bilson's attention was attracted by Stephen Curry, because Stephen Curry is likely to choose to counterattack the fast-break three-pointer.

Curry's baby showed a smile on his face, and threw the ball directly to the basket. Lin Yi, who was following up, was not able to take off enough. Obviously he was still adapting to the take-off under such high-intensity confrontation, but his wingspan successfully helped him.

Bang!

With an alley-oop dunk, Lin Yi scored five points in a row and gave it a shot. The Wildcats instantly reversed the situation on the court.

"Good job! But why didn't you dribble and launch a fast break?" Stephen Curry asked Lin Yi curiously after high-fiving Lin Yi, because it would be better if Lin Yi launched a counterattack just now.

"Save one hand. If you fail to form a direct attack after the pick-and-roll in the next round, you can give me the ball in the high position. I will try to be the top pick in singles." Lin Yi patted Curry's head and said.

Since growing taller, Lin Yi has developed the habit of touching other people's heads.

Griffin was a little angry. He didn't expect that he would be deflated continuously by this little-known Chinese kid.

"It's incredible, this is his debut." Assistant Jennings said with emotion.

"He is still adapting to the rhythm of the game, let McCarron help him, and then as long as Griffin gets the ball, we will double-team." McCullope said.

Wildcats power forward McCarron resolutely implemented the head coach's arrangement. When the Speed ​​​​team took advantage of Griffin's attack, he successfully caused Griffin's mistake by double-teaming him.

"Damn it!" Griffin was so upset that he pushed the Chinese big man with all his strength, but he was double-teamed by his opponent in the three-second zone. Blake Griffin was in a hurry and failed to pass the ball immediately, but this time the Speedy team returned to defense very quickly, and the Wildcats did not immediately counterattack.

Stephen Curry was not in a hurry, he asked for a pick-and-roll with the ball in the high position, Lin Yi ran up, how could Blake Griffin use the same trick in a row, he and David Bilson forcibly squeezed Lin Yi and Curry's pick-and-roll.

"What a bull..." Lin Yi's height and weight at this time made his pick-and-roll not strict enough, but in the NCAA, only a bull like Griffin can break the pick-and-roll between him and Curry so tough.

However, Curry and Lin Yi, who had been prepared for a long time, were not in a hurry. Curry did not choose to play alone or play another pick-and-roll, but directly handed the ball to Lin Yi and signaled his teammates to pull away.

ha?Griffin was a little taken aback.
