Chapter 878 The Perfect Player of History
The two teams played fiercely at the beginning, and the scores rose alternately. Although the 76ers did not play Embiid, the team's offensive ability is still very strong. Redick and Bayless are two small men running around the court, puncturing without the ball, looking for opportunities.Although Ben Simmons does not shoot from the outside, his comprehensiveness and super organizational skills allow him to always find teammates with better positions when holding the ball.

Siakam was responsible for defending Simmons in this game, but halfway through the first quarter, he had to be replaced by his teammates in advance because of two fouls.

It was CJ Myers who replaced Siakam. At this time, the score on the court was 14:13, and the Raptors temporarily led by 1 point.

"Pascal 2 fouled, who do you think Coach Devin Casey will let be man-marked?" Mav Albert asked.

"It may be CJ who just came up, and of course it may be Ying." Chauncey Billups said.

The 76ers served in the frontcourt, Ben Simmons received the ball, and it was Ying Xiong who came up to defend!

There was a burst of cheers at the scene. When Siakam was beaten down by Simmons just now, the fans had some opinions on the referee's penalty. They hoped that whoever in the team could stand up and teach the opponent a lesson about the arrogance. The owner of the arena.

Ying Xiong sticks very tightly and doesn't give Ben Simmons any space.

"What I'm puzzled about is that Ben's shooting is not his specialty. He should be able to shoot and prevent breakthroughs!" Mafu Albert questioned.

"Stable, I think for a defender of this level, he can completely prevent the opponent's breakthrough and shot at the same time!" Chauncey Billups explained.

Simmons didn't find a chance, and called Amir Johnson inside to come up with a pick-and-roll.

Ying Xiong's lateral movement was so good, he quickly bypassed the pick-and-roll and continued to chase Ben Simmons.

Simmons is not Curry. He doesn't have the ability to take advantage of the gap of a single block and directly shoot a 3-pointer. Let alone a single block, even if he is allowed to shoot a 3-pointer, he will hardly choose to shoot.

Simmons was entangled by Ying Xiong and was unable to organize an effective offense. He could only distribute the ball to his teammates to deal with.

"Ben knows how to be flexible, and he didn't insist on attacking!" Albert the groom laughed.

"He's not even dribbling in front of Ying. It's not a good choice to attack. Facing the No.1 defense in the league, it's not shameful to choose to pass." Chauncey Billups laughed .

For the 76ers, the attack time is almost up, and the former Raptors player Amir Johnson forcibly made a hook - blocked by Ibaka!
24 seconds violation!
There were cheers at the scene, and this round reflected the defensive background of the Raptors as a five-time championship team.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball and gave it to CJ Miles.

Ying Xiong asked for the ball with his back on the left, and CJ Miles passed it in.

Ying Xiong faced Covington with his back and made two fake moves of breaking through to the upper line and scoring the ball at 45 degrees from the left wing.Then he quickly turned around and cut in along the baseline. Before Amir Johnson could prevent him, he dunked with both hands!

"Wow - this ball is so beautiful!" Chauncey Billups exclaimed.

On the 76ers side, Ben Simmons fell to the low post and hit Yingxiong with his back.

Ying Xiong counterattacked with the ball, and passed the ball to CJ Miles who followed up on the right wing.
The point difference was widened to 6 points in an instant, and 76ers coach Brett Brown requested a timeout!

The Air Canada Center arena was full of cheers, and Ying Xiong's dominance on both ends of the offense and defense made the game instantly overwhelming.

"Ben can't respond in the low post, which makes it difficult for Philadelphia to use him to activate the offense in the half court position!" Marv Albert said.

"Ben has no outside shooting ability, so defending him has become more targeted. He should be the winner of the league's best defensive player for two times. He can defend from the 1st position to the 5th position. Ben's low singles ability , It’s just misplaced to eat and eat a small guard, and it’s not realistic to want to attack and respond.” Chauncey Billups explained.

After the timeout came back, both sides made personnel adjustments.At this time, Ying Xiong began to increase his personal offense.Covington's defense is very good, but in front of him, it is still not enough.

Ying Xiong scored 20 points in the first quarter and led the team to lead the opponent by 32 points at 22:10.

The two sides entered the confrontation of the rotation team.For the Raptors, Jeremy Lin led the second team and played a 2:10 spurt, completely opening the score.

After Ying Xiong came back, they launched another crazy attack. By the end of halftime, the Raptors had widened the point difference to as much as 29 points.

Ying Xiong scored 35 points at halftime, letting Ben Simmons and other 76ers know what an offensive master looks like.

In this game, Ying Xiong clocked in and got off work in 3 quarters.He scored 3 points in 50 quarters, leaving a lot of time for the team's young players to exercise, and he can be described as a "model good boss".

When the game entered garbage time, groom Albert asked Chauncey Billups: "Chauncey, do you think your peak Detroit Pistons can defend against the current response?"

Chauncey Billups didn't think too much, and replied directly: "I can't prevent it! How should I put it, he should be the most perfect player among all the basketball players I have seen so far. He can hold the ball or off the ball, break through and The shooting is top-notch, how can such a player defend? If he hits up, his speed of the ball and his ability to find open spaces are rare in the league. We were the best defensive team in the league back then, but we should Well, it's historic, so thank you for acknowledging our defense, but we were powerless!"

After the Raptors beat the 76ers at home, they ushered in a two-game winning streak.But next, they will usher in a wave of 6 consecutive visitors in the West, and their opponents include strong teams in the West such as the Spurs and Warriors.

On October 10, the Raptors visited San Antonio and challenged the Spurs away.The head of the Spurs, Kawhi Leonard, has been injured until now because he was stepped on by Warriors center Zaza in the Western Conference Finals last season.

Originally, Yingxiong VS Leonard was a good point to watch, but because of the latter's injury, this duel no longer existed.

In this game, the two teams played very anxiously.In the first two home games, the Raptors beat each other by a big score.But the Spurs are different from the Bulls and 76ers. They are experienced and they are playing at home, so they are not easy to deal with.

The game has been anxious until the final quarter.In the end, relying on Yingxiong's unsolvable heads-up at the critical moment, the Raptors won the opponent and ushered in a 3-game winning streak.

After the game, a reporter asked Ying Xiong, what did you say to Xiaoka at the end of the game.Ying Xiong said with a smile: "I told him, I hope you recover well, and you will definitely return as king!"
