Chapter 627 Career Score High
Love went to the free throw line and made two free throws!

"Big men with outside shooting threats are really difficult to guard, which is why Dirk's three-threat is so powerful!" Van Gundy sighed.

In the first half of the first quarter, the efficiency of both sides was not high, and the score was not opened.

The two sides entered the rotation stage, the Raptors 2nd team led by Jeremy Lin and the Timberwolves 2nd team led by Barea were inseparable.So until Ying Xiong and other main players came back in the second quarter, the score was still anxious, and the Raptors even fell behind by 2 point.

"Could it be that the home team's 10-game winning streak is going to end this time, and lose to the Timberwolves, who are 8 places away in the West?" Many Raptors fans began to mutter.

Whenever this time comes, Raptors fans will think of one person, and that is the head star Ying Xiong.

At this time, Ying Xiong also began to exert his strength.

Ying Xiong received the ball from Jeremy Lin on the right wing, faced the defense of his old teammate Luke Mbah a Moute, made a continuous crossover, flashed out of position, and hit a jumper with an emergency stop!His handsome change of direction jump shot immediately sparked cheers from the fans of the home team.

Here, Love also hit a rebound shot from the left wing waist, and he returned the color!
"Steve, the game is getting better and better, and the stars of the two teams are starting to compete!" Van Gundy said with a smile.

"You know how to watch the match!" Steve Kerr joked with a smile.

"Who doesn't like to watch offense, tell me!"

"I surrender!"

Ying Xiong asked for the ball with his back on the right, faked a turn (to the upper line) and then shook his shoulders, then turned to the baseline and made a fallback jump shot—hit!
"Should this ball, very much like Michael!" Steve Kerr said sternly.

"This is the first time you say that Ying's technical moves are like Michael!" Van Gundy said with a smile.

"Did I say it the first time? I don't remember!" Steve Kerr looked at Van Gundy questioningly.

Van Gundy nodded with mock seriousness.

Here, Love made a foul by Patterson under the basket.

Love made two free throws and continued to maintain the momentum of corresponding Xiong's soaring points.

"Kevin's foul-making ability is indeed the strongest among big men. Sometimes he gets fouled without knowing it." Van Gundy said.

"Kevin's ability to make offensive fouls is also good. Everyone thinks that he is not good at defense, especially the blocking, so he tends to be strong on his side. As a result, he often catches opportunities and causes offensive fouls. !” Steve Kerr added.

The confrontation between Love and Ying Xiong made the fans at the Air Canada Center, home of the Raptors, extremely excited.Everyone likes to watch this kind of bloody duel, and doesn't like to watch that kind of constipated iron fight.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball and gave it to Ying Xiong who slipped to the left wing.

Ying Xiong didn't make too many adjustments when he caught the ball, he just pulled it up and shot 3 points-but he couldn't hold him down!
Here, Love also received Rubio's ball after the pick-and-roll, and scored a 3-pointer into the box!
Jeremy Lin dribbles over and points out from the bottom line to Ying Xiong outside the 3-point line on the left wing.

Ying Xiong caught the ball, and with a realistic fake move, he directly tricked the highly nervous Mbah a Mott into the air.

Ying Xiong slammed into Mbah a Moute's body, and then he didn't forget to throw the ball.

The bottom line referee blew his whistle directly. Obviously, this was a 3-point foul, there is no doubt about it.

But...Ying Xiong shot a 3-pointer and hit the board into the frame!
3+1!This one can be scored as a 3+1 ball!

The Raptors fans at the scene were completely crazy!They are used to Yingxiong scoring 3 to [-] points in a game last season, but they rarely see him hit consecutive [-]-pointers.Obviously, Ying Xiong has improved again this season!
For a player who has already won the double MVP and continues to improve, what is this concept?
Ying Xiong walked to the free throw line. After the fans shouted "MVP" and "Hero", he made the free throw steadily and hit 3+1.

On Love's side, Patterson was forced to attack Patterson in the low post. After turning around, he was about to hook, but Ying Xiong shot out from a diagonal stab, and served him with a big hot pot!
Love was slapped by Ying Xiong's hot pot and almost fell down, but his teammate Pekovic helped him.

But here Yingxiong's fast break didn't wait for the opponent to settle down at all, he directly chased the forest team's ass and hit the basket with the ball. After turning around, he hit a layup with his right hand and hit the rebound!
Ba Moute couldn't stop Ying Xiong at all, and he didn't even have a chance to foul.

Coach Rick Adelman can only ask for a timeout!The reason why he didn't call a timeout before is because the core of the team, Love, is fighting against Ying Xiong. Once the timeout is called, it will affect Love's mood.However, at this time, Love's offense was frustrated, and the opponent still wanted what they wanted, and the time for a timeout came.

"Kevin still can't get over it!" Van Gundy said in a helpless tone.

"Minnesota should think of another way, relying on confrontation is not the way out!" Steve Kerr said.

After returning from the timeout, Brewer came up to replace Mbah a Moute, who was beaten by Ying Xiong as a fool, and Amir Johnson came up to replace Patterson.

In the next game, the Timberwolves still failed to limit Yingxiong, but their Love suddenly lost his offensive sight, missed consecutive shots, and made 2 turnovers.

Soon, the point difference was widened.Relying on Yingxiong's 23 points in a single quarter, the Raptors easily widened the point difference to double digits before halftime.

In the second half of the game, the Raptors fought more and more bravely, expanding their advantage more and more, and finally successfully defended the home court, ushered in 11 consecutive victories, and their record came to 24 wins and 14 losses.

After the game, Van Gundy sighed: "Now Ying really has the ability to control the process of the game. As long as he is not a particularly strong opponent, he can basically choose the appropriate strength and when to close the game. It's terrible! "

这场比赛，应雄轻松砍下56分10个篮板6次助攻4个抢断1个盖帽，帮助球队继续战绩高歌猛进。

56 points is Yingxiong's NBA regular season career scoring high, the previous highest score was 55 points created last season.Although he still has not been able to reach the 60 points proposed by some experts before the season, most people believe that as long as he wants to, 60 points will come sooner or later.

The post-match press conference was attended by Ying Xiong, Casey and Jeremy Lin.When a reporter asked Ying Xiong when he scored 3 points, Ying Xiong said that he had to ask his coach and teammates.If the coach doesn't give him playing time and his teammates don't pass the ball to him, he won't even score 60 points!
In this regard, Casey said that he plans to let Yingxiong play 48 minutes in the next game...

Jeremy Lin said that his only job in the next game is to pass the ball to Ying Xiong...

Everyone at the press conference laughed, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

An excellent record is the best reward. The Raptors are currently full of confidence in the team. The confidence in the team's championship this season is completely different from that during the losing streak.
