Chapter 38 One Attack and One Defense

The attention of the summer league is limited, and people's attention is mostly on some high-ranked rookies. After all, their starting point is higher, and they are truly expected.

But on the court, before there is a clear team status, all young people want to express themselves.

For example, the point guard of the Heat today, the New Zealander Kirk Penny, ignores Wade's posture of asking for the ball on the wing, hooks his fingers, and asks the local Udonis Haslem, who is also an undrafted rookie, to come out and give him the ball. Do the pick and roll.

The hard-working Haslem ran out to do a pick-and-roll for Penny. The Knicks are also a rookie combination. They watched the Heat complete this high pick-and-roll, and then formed a dislocation switch. Kirk Penny changed his footwork slightly on the outside The frequency has been wiped away from the No. 9 pick selected by the Knicks this year, power forward Michael Sweetney.

"Good shot, good breakthrough." Assistant coach Walker applauded.

The breakthrough is good, but the problem is that the big man on the opposite side is not slow to move, only half a body behind Kirk Penney.

At this time, Yang Di stepped out with both feet on the other side, his waist and horse united, his strength exploded from head to toe, and he was firmly in the main position under the basket.

"How is it possible!" DeMar Johnson was taken aback, how could this guy be so powerful!

DeMar Johnson considers himself a player who has trained in the NBA for two years at least, and his body is muscular. Compared with himself when he first entered the league two years ago, it seems to be a world of difference, but even so, it seems to be worse A section of Yang Di.

Kirk Penny felt the wind in the back of his head and didn't dare to make a layup. Seeing Yang Dika's main position, he hit the ball and passed it without thinking.

Yang Di was overjoyed. After receiving the ball, he immediately made a fake move of raising his hands to attack.

DeMar Johnson, who was behind, was stunned, and immediately "rubbed" the ground, and jumped up like a spring. Yang Di dribbled the ball with both hands to the side, and then jumped up with the time difference.

"boom!"

The Knicks would have no chance to defend again, and watched Yang Di finish dunking with both hands.

"Beautiful!" Assistant coach Walker exclaimed in his heart. The second-round pick selected this year looks very smart, and he didn't say that his skills are rough.

Yang Di returned to the defense, wanting to find his teammate who passed the ball to give him a high-five, but found that his teammate had a serious face and didn't intend to celebrate with him.

In the auditorium of the Orlando Arena, there was a Chinese reporter, about 30 years old.

The reporter held a camera in his hand, and took several consecutive photos of the court from different angles. It was the first time that Yang Di scored and dunked on an NBA court.His powerful arms, the basketball hanging through the net, the clean and bright court floor, and the eyes of his opponents flying behind him form a precious picture.

Cai Nan took out a pen and quickly wrote down in the interview book: "On July 7th, Yang Di made his debut in the summer league. He slammed his opponent away on his first attack and completed a two-handed dunk, showing unparalleled spirituality on the court. Just as he is less than 10 years old, he seems to have unlimited possibilities."

"The story probably begins at this time, one person, one city."

Knicks point guard Frank Williams.

After driving through half court, he played a cross-screen run with the shooting guard, and then the shooting guard passed to Michael Sweetney who received the ball high.When the ball arrives, the small forward running up from the bottom corner can complete a hand-off pass with Michael Sweetney, and Michael Sweetney will give the small forward a pick-and-roll screen.

At this time, Haslem showed the effect of his training in Europe for a year, and his tactical understanding was very thorough. He directly ignored the defensive Michael Sweetney and delayed the opposing small forward.

Yang Di was dumbfounded watching the inside. This is only the summer league, but it has already demonstrated the complex tactics of the NBA.

He only saw that after the Knicks made a series of moves from the outside, the small forward dropped to Sweetney who was rolling down, and Sweetney drove straight in, dribbling the ball and preparing to attack the basket.

"Don't even think about it!" Yang Di shouted and stepped out.

He was tall and had a fierce look in his eyes. Facing Sweetney who was rushing forward, he was fearless. He raised his hands high, counting the rhythm of Sweetney's three strides, and flew up with a "clip".

Sweetney saw the Chinese rookie jump up with his incongruous face, as if to cover up the sky, as if to swallow him alive, panicked, but had an idea, the basketball was placed under Yang Di's armpit. Pass it down to DeMarre Johnson on the baseline.

"You can't miss the opportunity to deliver it to your door!"

Demar Johnson was happy, then raised the ball with both hands, jumped up and pressed his hands down to dunk.

At this moment, a black shadow appeared in front of DeMar Johnson, sprinting upwards with an exaggerated bullet speed, surpassing his height in an instant, like a rocket rising into the sky.

The big black hand pressed down on the orange basketball, and overwhelming force came from the transmission of the basketball and the palm.

DeMarre Johnson has no center of gravity in the air, and the force is uneven. He was horrified to see the basketball in his hand being slapped away!

Devin Wade!

The 1-meter shooting guard completed a dunk block on an inside player!
DeMarre Johnson sat down on the ground, the basketball rolled out of the sideline, looked up at Wade looking around, his face was green and white.

"Damn it, it's amazing!"

Yang Di ran over and bumped into Wade's chest. He just saw that Demar Johnson took off first, but Wade rushed over like the wind, surpassed Demar Johnson in the blink of an eye, and completed a shocking block , Didn't this guy say he was good at offense? Why is he also so good at defense and so active?

"Your supplementary defense is also good!" Wade watched the scene where Yang Di rushed out, and also admired Yang Di's fearlessness.

In the offices of American Airlines Arena in Miami, there was a burst of laughter.

"One offense and one defense, it's really interesting." Pat Riley watched the live broadcast, clapping his hands and smiling.From this simple one attack and one defense, he has already seen the infinite possibilities of the Heat in the future. Yang Di and Wade seem to have an unspeakable tacit understanding when they cooperate for the first time on the court.

As soon as the camera turned in the screen, the Knicks had already missed the offense, and Yang Di pushed DeMar Johnson to protect the backcourt rebound.

Then he didn't stop the ball, and directly passed it to Wade. Wade took the ball and rushed to the frontcourt. During the transition between offense and defense, the speed was the largest, really like a red lightning.

Then I saw Wade singled out the unnamed shooting guard defending him one-on-one in the frontcourt, took a strong step, squeezed the opponent away, and completed a one-handed shot.

Wade ran back to retreat and high-five Yang Di.

Yang Di played 6 minutes in the first quarter, adapting to the rhythm of the NBA.

It is also because the Knicks do not have any strong insiders, allowing him to easily grab 4 rebounds and complete a dunk on the offensive end without assists, blocks, steals or turnovers.

"If it's the regular season, the intensity will be several grades higher than this. The opponents you meet are all kinds of strange, and some players even specialize in certain aspects, which is very scary." Yang Di and Wade left the field together, and Wade and Yang Di chatted arrive.

"Specialize in certain areas?"

Wade said: "Yes, for example, some players focus on defense and concentrate on defense. In a game, the concentration on the defensive end is very high. A level. There are still many tactical changes. The Knicks want to play some tactics today, but it seems that the effect is not very good."

"I think you will have no problem staying in the Heat, but if you want to get more playing time in the regular season, you must first memorize the tactics, find your position on the court, and ensure that every defense and every time The offense can appear in a reasonable position, and the coach will recognize you."

"That Udonis Haslem has a good sense of position on the court, and he looks very professional."

"I heard that he went to Europe to play for a year before." Yang Di said.

Wade said: "He used to be on the University of Florida men's basketball team. I played against him when I was in college, but he was a little fat at the time. I didn't expect that after these years of training, he has completed the transformation. Just now you saw him The defense is not good, the No. [-] pick of the card this year can't move. To be honest, he may not be as good as you in blocking shots, but his current defense is worse than yours. If he can stay in the team, he will be your greatest asset. competitor."

Yang Di nodded thoughtfully, and immediately suppressed the little pride that had just arisen.He turned his head and looked at the court. Sure enough, as Wade said, Haslem's defense is very tough. Even if the Knicks changed a big man to match him, it still didn't take much advantage. , every defense change is just right, really much more professional than Yang Di.
