Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 179
As we all know, the NBA is an out-and-out game for big players, and it is easiest to play big and small at any time.

However, with the rise of long-range shots in recent years, it has gradually become a trend to play small and big.

Among the attacking guards, the one who can play the small game best is Stephen Curry. As long as he can pull the big man to the three-point line, he often simply looks for the rhythm and immediately throws a super long-range three-pointer, which will definitely make you lose your temper.

"Has this kid developed a long-range shot?" O'Neill looked through the recent technical statistics of the Lakers. Yuan Qingshan's slightly pitiful colored hot spots are still inside, and most of them are restricted.

Statistics show that he is not used to shooting from the outside. In this case, why should he be so determined to switch Capela to the three-point line, trying to get past a flexible center like Capela all the way to the penalty area?This is too risky, right?
O'Neal felt that it would be understandable if Yuan Qingshan played against Howard, because as he got older, Howard's footsteps became more and more sluggish, and once he was pulled to a high position, it was difficult to keep up with the footsteps of smaller players.

But Capela is different. He is still very young and not very heavy. He is known for his nimble footwork and quick lateral movement. Under such circumstances, it is very difficult for Yuan Qingshan to break through to the basket.

"Xiaoshan is going to use his signature to quickly break through!" Downs thought, and ran to the other corner, hoping to take Howard away and try to clear the obstacles for Yuan Qingshan.

The scene has been formed, start singles, one-on-one!

"Look, Yuan Qingshan is about to start. If this goal can be scored, it will not be as simple as scoring two points. Afterwards, the Rockets will have to change their defensive strategy and shrink the inside line, so as to leave room for Downs and Kobe to attack!" Mark Jackson analyzed the significance of this goal from a tactical perspective.

As expected of someone who has been a head coach, he guessed Coach Scott's intentions at once.

Coach Scott clenched his fists unconsciously. Although tonight was just a regular season game, the Rockets came aggressively and did not intend to save face for the home team at all. So he had to get serious on his own side. On the one hand, he had to find some way to counteract McHale's unkind greetings, and on the other hand, he used this tense and urgent rhythm to train the newcomers.

So coach Scott pushed Yuan Qingshan out as the first surprise soldier.

"Hey, Capela, press him down quickly, I'm ready for a fast break!" Beverly yelled at Capela's back while watching over Nick Young from the bottom corner. He really didn't think highly of the Lakers' No. 16, and Capela was absolutely effective against such small guards.

"I said buddy, do you train on the rocket launcher every day? If you don't shout like crazy, the other party won't hear you?" Nick Yang raised his palm to keep a distance from Beverly.

Beverly stared at Nick Yang with wide eyes for a few seconds, and said with an idiotic expression: "Did you tell a joke just now? Sorry, I'm cold."

Nick Young: ...

the other side.

"You don't need to tell me, of course I know I have to guard against him!" Capela murmured in his heart, ready to give Yuan Qingshan a big hat immediately when he raised his hand to shoot.

However, no matter how you look at it, this guy doesn't look like he is going to shoot. Could it be that he wants to break through?Come on, I have defended Harden's breakthrough in training. Although I can't defend it in most cases, the opponent is just a rookie, so there is no reason why I can't defend it.

"Let me sweat, kid!" Capela's arms were still raised, but he quietly lowered his center of gravity, ready to block Yuan Qingshan's breakthrough route at any time.

Coach Scott made two more gestures towards the frontcourt.

Under the command of the coach, Towns moved first, and he rushed towards the elbow again with a stride.

Howard froze for a moment: What do you mean, has the defender on the opposite side been waiting to assist Towns?The meaning of Downs running to the bottom line just now is that he wants to throw me off during a turn-back run?
Stop looking down on people!

Howard started with all his strength and chased after Downs' figure.

It has to be said that youth is capital. No matter how hard Howard exerts, he is always two steps behind Downs.

But Howard himself didn't take it seriously. Towns would definitely turn around when receiving the ball, so that he could catch up and block the shot before he made a shot.

Haha, the Lakers' tricks are so clumsy that they are vulnerable to their own clever minds.

Howard glanced at the direction of Yuan Qingshan and Capela from the corner of his eye while pounced on Downs. He wanted to go one step further and destroy the ball before it was passed.

but.

Huh?What about Yuan Qingshan, who was supposed to be in a high position?
The camera moved along Howard's line of sight, and Yuan Qingshan was no longer there.

Three seconds ago, when Howard happily chased Towns, the Rockets' last threat near the penalty area was eliminated.

Yuan Qingshan's figure flashed, and the "Three Stages of Acceleration" started.

It took only one step to pass Capela cleanly, and there was an unguarded penalty area in front of him.

Yuan Qingshan was worried that Capela would block the shot from behind, so he used up the remaining two acceleration skills one after another, activated the "Terminator" skill when he jumped up, and made a fancy layup with no one guarding him.

Boom, Yuan Qingshan's feet landed on the floor, he looked back, and Capela hadn't run past the inner arc of the free throw line yet.

The fans were stunned for a moment and then burst into enthusiastic cheers.

"Number 16!"

"Number 16!"

"Number 16!"

Yuan Qingshan has not yet reached the level of having his own nickname, and the DJ can only use his number to drive the rhythm of the fans.

"Hey, your move just now was really cool, but it's a pity that there are no defensive players in the background." A photographer sitting under the basket blinked and said to Yuan Qingshan.

Embarrassing.

Yuan Qingshan said in his heart that it was too embarrassing. There was no one defending just now, and he not only used up all three accelerations, but also pulled the reverse lever under the basket.

The wide open space and the inexplicably difficult layup are not a good match.

Fortunately, I made progress, if I didn't make it with a trembling hand.

What a shame...

"Xiaoshan, what you did just now was really cool. You did it on purpose for the media. Wait, you must be on the cover of the magazine tomorrow!" Downs ran over to celebrate with Yuan Qingshan.

magazine cover?In the picture, I am the only one who completed a super difficult layup in order to avoid the imaginary enemy?That kind of photo looks more like a posing, right?

Yuan Qingshan ignored him and ran away shyly.

Looking up at the scoreboard, Coach Scott breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had made the right bet this time. Yuan Qingshan did not disappoint him. This kid kept surprising him.

So in the future, can we try to increase his shots?
After the opening game, the Rockets hit a step-back three-pointer from Harden, and the Lakers Yuan Qingshan immediately returned a small breakthrough.

In these two offenses, the Rockets were tough and the Lakers were clever. In short, they were very exciting.

The fans of both sides were hooked, and the game hotline on the forum instantly piled up more than 100 pages. Yuan Qingshan's extraordinary acceleration and unguarded fancy layup at the basket were immediately made into dynamic pictures.

Especially the layup, which was PSed by various defenders, Gorilla Ewing, Shaquille O'Neal, Dwayne Johnson, Khloe Kardashian, Hulk, and even the white-haired Trump. The views of the spoof posts quickly exceeded one million.

Yuan Qingshan became popular on the Internet.
