King of the Point Guard Era

Chapter 29, Part 39: The Kentucky Point Guard Rivalry

Chapter 29 No.30 No. [-]: The Battle of Kentucky Point Guards

So fast, this was He Yixiang's first reaction when defending Wall. Although He Yixiang had already defended relatively late when he knew that the opponent was inaccurate for three-pointers, he was rushed by Wall in one step.This is the first time that He Yixiang has encountered a player who is faster than himself. He was caught off guard and passed cleanly. A ground hit pass bypassed Cousins ​​who came up to defend. , Facing the unprotected basket is a heavy dunk. "Hey, Chinese, your turn is too slow, so you don't want to guard me." Wall nodded satisfied with his assist, and ran back to halftime with a smile while mocking He Yixiang. The two three-pointers really reminded Wall of bragging to Bledsoe in the training hall before the war.It's a bit of a slap in the face.But this sharp breakthrough pass somehow saved himself a little face.

McHale, who was hurt by He Yixiang's two consecutive three-pointers, suddenly became active again: "Oh, my God, Reggie, did you see that? This breakthrough, this pass, I can guarantee that the Chinese Absolutely not, that's what a real point guard is."

"Fuck, if this guy dares to shoot, I will let him eat the hot pot. Don't worry, I won't let him pass so comfortably when he comes over later." Cousins ​​is also the first time he saw He Yixiang being so directly Breaking through the past, he couldn't help comforting He Yixiang.

However, He Yixiang was not as disappointed as he imagined, but showed a smile: "This is an interesting opponent." He Yixiang is not weak at all, and his excellent bounce and moving speed should make it impossible for He Yixiang to break through easily.The defense of Ponteside is stronger than that of the previous team. It can be said that it is the strongest defense that He Yixiang has ever encountered, but this is the only way to challenge.However, the two consecutive three-pointers at the beginning broke Wall's original defensive strategy. In order to deal with He Yixiang's sudden three-pointer at any time, he kept his center of gravity not very low.A shamgod changed direction in front of his body, broke through from Wall's right side, and faced the defending center with a high throw.This ball will not be scored. As a player who often uses high throws to finish, Wall can tell at a glance that the ball's trajectory is wrong.No, not a shot.But before he uttered these words, a thick black body rushed out and dunked the ball into the frame with an empty cut.The picture of this ball is as good as Alton's dunk just now, and it is simply the best response to that ball just now. "You can pass you even if you run slowly!" Now that the ball is scored, the counterattack is naturally indispensable.He Yixiang looked at the distraught Wall and said no mercy.

"Kevin, you just."

"Reggie, you don't need to talk, don't ask me anything about this Chinese in the future." Kevin McHale looked depressed, why was he chased and slapped in the face by this Chinese today, do he want to change? stand?

Kentucky's coach quickly called a timeout, and it was 8:2 in just over a minute. The opponent only scored 8 points in the first quarter of the previous game. "Wal? Did you use your strength in other places last night? Hit like a pussy? Can you make the Chinese on the opposite side feel a little pressure? Bledsoe, can't you get rid of your speed? That white fat guy? Run, don’t stand on the field like a stake, you two are two people who are destined to enter the lottery show, and Wall is the favorite to be the No. [-] pick, and now he is suppressed by a Chinese? If I were you Both, I'm embarrassed to go to the draft." Kentucky's coach was furious, what the fuck is this?Is the Chinese shooting three-pointers the same as in training?Bledsoe, who was lying on the gun, looked at Wall and shook his head helplessly. He had already said that the Chinese was not simple and looked down on me?You beat him up!
Coach John Calipari is very satisfied with the team's start performance: "Very good, He Yixiang, keep it up, your three-point threat is great, as long as you can enter the inside and disrupt their defense, then our tactics can Play it out." Since He Yixiang, who was most worried before the game, performed well, the next game should still be within the controllable range.

However, it may be that He Yixiang's precise three-pointer sucked away the touch of his teammates. After He Yixiang broke through the ball, he made a few good passes but only harvested a few good irons.On the contrary, He Yixiang's old high school opponent, Bledsoe, was alive and well. He received Wall's points in several air cuts and scored, and the score began to gradually close.Coach John Calipari frowned. The low shooting rate from the outside made the opponent a little unscrupulous about He Yixiang's double-teaming. Unless he switched offense and defense quickly, He Yixiang had no chance to make a shot.

"Memphis' outside line is a bit sluggish. At this time, we can consider letting some inside lines break the deadlock first." Miller put forward a very pertinent suggestion. Relatively speaking, Memphis' inside line still has an advantage.

He Yixiang also thought of this, but he will not simply rely on hanging the ball into the inside line to end. After all, the outside line is not allowed now, and it is easy to make mistakes if the opponent double-teams.Seeing He Yixiang's beckoning eyes, Cousins ​​came up to the pick-and-roll knowingly. The two of them have been together for 5 years. The pick-and-roll is the most basic combination of two people. Cousins ​​directly caught the ball and dunked, and Wall couldn't stop the inside behemoth at all. "Don't think that He Yixiang has no teammates. I, Cousins, are here." Looking at Wall below him, Cousins ​​was not polite at all.

"Hey, this is a bit like my old opponent. Back then, Malone and Stockton were also good pick-and-roll players." Miller's eyes were full of the shadows of the old Jazz.

The two point guards made assists at the same time. He Yixiang just passed a lob to Cousins. Here, Wall also passed a bullet-like pass to Dale who ran to the open by relying on Alton's off-ball pick-and-roll. Lews Miller hits the net with a three-pointer.It can be said that both sides ran out of their own tactics, and both point guards sent the ball to teammates who had the opportunity.It's just 8:2 at the beginning, even if Zach and Anderson didn't feel good at the beginning, at the end of the first quarter, Memphis still led by 31 points at 27:4.The two sides can be said to have presented a top-level offensive feast for the fans. Under NCAA rules, it is difficult to score more than 20 points in a quarter. As a result, Memphis even scored 31 points.He Yixiang scored 12 points and 5 assists, and Wall had 5 points and 7 assists.In this quarter, He Yixiang suppressed Wall to a certain extent, no matter in terms of performance on the field or in terms of statistics. A three-pointer directly forced Wall's defense to expand outwards, and other players made up defenses at any time.
