NBA: Two hands can’t carry championship rings

"Coach, I want to ask you, what is the most important thing to win?"

Yue Yi said solemnly in front of Jonas.

Jonas felt that the atmosphere in the locker room was not right. The young man in front of him came to ask him such a question, and Jonas felt offended.

"Yue, are you asking me for advice or questioning me?"

Yue Yi said:"Coach, I don't mean to offend. You are a great coach. In the 2000 Sydney Olympics, the Lithuanian team you led was one step away from defeating the all-powerful Dream Team. The first team to defeat the Dream Team was... The team's team should be yours, Lithuania."

Yunas sneered,"Then, what do you mean by mentioning this, making fun of us, Lithuania, for falling short?"

"Of course I didn’t mean that. I just wanted to say that you lacked a belief at that time to shatter the belief that the American Dream Team was invincible."

Yunas fell into memories. In the 2000 Sydney Olympics, he and his team were just one step away from making their name in the history of basketball.

"Young man, I have been teaching for many years and have led countless people. Are you teaching me how to do things?"Yunas stared into Yue Yi's eyes and said solemnly:"After playing in the NBA for one year, you want to be above the team's head coach?

Yue Yi also stared into Yunus's eyes and replied:"No, I'm just a member of the team. I beg you, don't let me off the field in the second half.""

"You are an excellent coach, and we will naturally follow the tactical arrangements, but when a team's game reaches the most critical stage, many times the tactical system is no longer important and cannot be used normally. It determines the outcome. The most important thing is the belief in victory, the courage to move forward and tear all enemies into pieces."

"I don't want to lose this belief!"

"Look at our players. They were originally high-spirited before the game, but now they have become depressed and silent. Is this the result you want to get in order to practice tactics?"

"Do you want us to lose the spirit of fighting to the death in a friendly match?"

Yunas was moved in his heart, but for the sake of the head coach, he cannot change his decision due to the words of a young player.

At least not right now, the players are watching.

"The second half was carried out according to the original plan. I take full responsibility for the loss."

"But I can give you a chance to stay on the court as you wish, but if the team loses, you need to stand up and bear all the consequences."

Yue Yi smiled, his smile full of confidence,"It's a deal."

He is very pleased that Yunus is not a rigid head coach.

Lose? That is impossible. I will crush those who jump with the stick.

Yue Yi's words changed not only coach Yunus, but also Everyone in the locker room.

No one wanted to lose to South Korea, not even in a friendly match.

At the end of the half-time break, the two teams changed sides and faced the Korean players.

In the first half, the players were relaxed and casual, running the usual tactics deployed by Yunus. When they came back in the second half, their temperament completely changed.

The Huaguo team's first attack was when the starters gave the ball to Yue Yi in a tacit understanding.

It was him who stood up and said what they wanted to say but didn't dare to say.

Yue Yi lived up to expectations and chose the most confident breakthrough inside line for the first attack.

When it was the Korean team's turn to attack, they made a layup. The defensive pressure was completely different from the first half.

The South Korean team failed to create a good opportunity after several attempts. In the end, their main small forward had to force Zhu Ba.

Zhu Ba has always been a very tough player on the defensive end. The ball was not out of position at all. The South Korean small forward forced the shot and was blocked by Zhu Ba.

The ball went out of bounds and South Korea had the ball, but there were only 2 seconds left.

The South Korean team sent the ball and the South Korean shooting guard received it. The ball was immediately shot. Yue Yi, who was responsible for guarding him, flew into the air and slapped the ball away.

The ball was also blocked and hit the front court of the Huaguo team without doing anything. Stop and run forward.

The experienced Liu Wei has already caught the ball passed by Yue Yi, speeds up and runs to the frontcourt, and launches a fast break.

Liu Wei passes the ball to Yue Yi who goes straight to the basket. After Yi received the ball, he threw it into the air, and a tall figure descended from the sky. He dunked the ball, making the backboard shake.

Not only was this dunk powerful, but it also flew up from behind and slid towards the basket. This dunk added to the beauty of gliding and drifting.

After Yi Di dunked, he roared at the South Korean team's bench. In the first half, they sat there and laughed at Hua with their exaggerated movements. Chinese player.

At this moment, Yi Di's emotions were vented.

Then, Yi Di jumped up and bumped his chest with Yue Yi, who was running over, to celebrate.

The two NBA rookies completed an extremely beautiful alley-oop.

The fans at the scene were excited.

In the game at home, no matter which arena the Chinese team played in, it was at home.

The Korean team was generally shorter than the Chinese team in every position. The reason why they could resist in the first half. They still got the lead thanks to their flexible conduct, desperate fighting, and the relaxation of the Chinese players.

But when the Chinese players increased the intensity of the confrontation, their disadvantages were undoubtedly exposed.

Wow.

Hua Guo's starting five made a little effort, and the point difference dropped to 8 points.

The starting five cooperated for five minutes, and Yunas changed four players at once, leaving only Yue in the starting lineup. Yi Yin was on the court.

The South Korean team thought it had a chance to chase points. However, they found that the backup point guard of the Huaguo team was much faster than the starting one, and he could surpass their seemingly old player in one step.

The forward, who used to be the"Xiao Li Flying Knife" who made them suffer so much, still has the same style as he did in the three-point shooting.

The substitute power forward Du Feng was so elusive on the court that he could be seen in any area. The Korean players found that their passing became choked and difficult.

There is also the substitute center, who was the leader of the Huaguo men's basketball team back then. This inside pace makes their main player He Shengzhen look so cumbersome.

Chen Jiahua is an offensive point guard, and Yue Yi takes over to sort out the offense on the court. The Hua Guo team played in an orderly manner and cooperated smoothly.

The South Korean team sadly discovered that after the main players of the Chinese team came off the field, they not only failed to catch up with the points, but the point difference became wider and wider. After the third quarter, the point difference with the Chinese team came to 17 points.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Yunus's main rotation players were replaced again, and all the fringe players were replaced.

The Korean team feels that their opportunity to chase the wind has come again.

Once again, however, their anticipation turned to despair.

Yue Yi strengthened his personal offense, shot inside and outside, drew fouls, shot three-pointers, and provided assists to his teammates.

The Korean players looked at him as a physical monster, but in the fourth quarter his physical fitness was still as good as when he first played, without any signs of fatigue.

The point difference was widened to 22 points, and there were only more than 4 minutes left in the game.

Yue Yi signaled Yunus to take him off the field. He didn't want to play with the Korean team anymore.

Yunus looked at the players sitting on the bench. After the second half started, they all excitedly waved towels, stood up, shouted, and applauded. This team atmosphere and the spirit of advancing and retreating together are really great.

This is a real team.

United and full of fighting spirit.

Yunus suddenly discovered that he, the head coach, was not as inspiring to the team on a spiritual level as this young man who was driving the team on the court.

This kid may be a better team leader than Yao in the future.

When Yue Yi came off the field, the players all stood up and high-fived him. Without exception, Yao Ming hugged him, and Yi Di extended his fist to give him a fist bump.

This friendly match, which had nothing to do with the rankings, allowed Yue Yi to win the respect of the players.

At the end of the game, after falling behind in the first half, the Chinese team showed its strength in the second half and beat the South Korean team with a score of 88:65.

In the whole game, Yue Yi played 24 minutes and scored 25 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals.
