One Guard

Chapter 11: No. 1 as the 1st scoring point

"Lightning! Lightning! Lightning! Lightning!..." Even though the game has entered a timeout, the enthusiasm of the fans has not been extinguished.

The violent tomahawk-style dunk was scored into a three-pointer. This kind of wonderful shot is not common in the NCAA arena. And the one who accomplished all this was actually a little-known Asian defender.

Yiyang's mother also shouted wildly with the fans beside him, he believed that his son could succeed. Now, Yiyang has proved this point with practical actions.

"Great job! Very good job! I knew you wouldn't let me down!" After the players left the field, Stevens directly pulled Yiyang to his side and hugged him warmly. Yiyang is not only good in the training camp, but he can also perform well when he meets a university star player like Harlan Gaudi!

"He's not that strong." Unexpectedly, Yiyang was not excited by it. He just spread his hands, as if it was a matter of course to blow up Harlan Gaudi!

"Okay, also, take a break for the next game. Norid, your chance has come, I want you to play to keep suppressing Harlan Gaudi. After he is exhausted, also, I Then send you on the field. At that time, your task will not be to blow up Harlan Gaudi, but to open the score, understand!?" The first thing Stevens explained after the timeout was related to Yiyang. Even the core of Gordon Hayward does not have this kind of treatment.

Yiyang didn't gnaw, just nodded lightly, then took the towel handed over by his teammate and wiped his face. This guy who has lived in danger and crime since he was a child doesn't seem to be able to get close to someone so easily.

But Stevens is not worried, as long as the Bulldogs continue like this, Yiyang will be integrated into this group, for sure!

"Luke! Calm down! Keep your cool! You've been led by that rookie all the time, don't get angry! That will only make you lose your judgment!" On the other side, Mountaineers coach Tom Kling couldn't help but If you don't remind your own star, the team is already 10 points behind!

Although Indiana University has passed their most glorious period, being bullied by Butler University is still unbearable for them. Tom Crean needs the players to find the rhythm of the game and regain confidence, otherwise, this game will become more and more difficult.

"I know, boss, I know... just now, it was all my fault, I wanted to teach that kid a lesson too much. I won't give him any more chances, I promise!" Luke Ha Rangodi admitted his mistake with a dark face. Slaughtering newcomers is something everyone loves to do, but being slaughtered by newcomers may not be a good memory.

After that, Tom Kling arranged a lot of defensive tactics according to Yiyang's characteristics. He knows how to deal with this kind of defender who likes to break through, as long as they can't get in, they will mess up!

Soon, the game restarted. Tom Crean confidently dispatched his players, hoping that they could quickly equalize the score.

No matter how powerful the Asian guy named Yi is, he is just a rookie. Harlan Gaudi lost to him just now, just because everyone knew nothing about that guy. But now, Tom Kling promises that the performance time of the No. 1 Asian defender is completely over!

But when the Bulldogs returned to play, Tom Crean was dumbfounded. Matt Howard, Willie Wesley, Gordon Hayward, and Shelvin Mark were all there, but the No. 1 rookie who had just performed well turned out to be Ronald Norrid!

what does that mean? This means that the defensive arrangements made by Tom Kling just now have all been reduced to waste paper! Stevens didn't let Yiyang be present at all, so those arrangements couldn't be said to be useful.

Ronald Norrid is a defender with a very different style from Yiyang. He is not as mobile, but his shooting is better.

What Tom Kling did with Yiyang can't be applied to Norrid at all.

Stevens looked at Tom Kling's deflated expression, let alone how happy he was. After waiting a few minutes for Harlan Gaudi to leave the field, he believed that Tom Kling's face would be even uglier!

"The Bulldogs made some personnel adjustments. Coach Stevens replaced the one who performed well just now. It stands to reason that he is playing excitedly now. Coach Stevens should let him continue playing. .But the Bulldogs young coach has been doing well for the team for several years, and his decision must have his own reasons."

After the game, the mountain people's offense finally got back on track.

Harlan Gaudi first hit a three-pointer from the outside, and then used a back-up single to sit Norid to the basket to score a hook.

On the Bulldog side, Shelvin Mark and Hayward fired one after another. Although the Mountaineers finally scored, it was the Bulldogs, who had a stronger offensive firepower, to maintain the lead.

When he was off the court, Yiyang didn't do nothing, but was always observing the situation on the court. Stevens admires Yiyang's actions very much. Only a defender who can read the game can be called the No. 1 position!

In the fifteenth minute of the first half, Tom Kling had to replace the sweaty Harlan Gaudi. Stevens' eyes lit up and he waved his hand. "Also, give it to me!"

"There are still five minutes before the end of the first half, and the Mountaineers are still eight points behind. The gap of eight points is not too big. If the players in their second team perform well, they still have a chance to reverse the situation. Huh? We saw the Bulldogs, the No. 1 rookie who was doing well and seemed to be ready to play! God, is Coach Stevens planning to open the score in the first half of the game!?" Commentary The member shook his head in disbelief, Butler University has always had this kind of courage.

In the past, they were dealt with by others in the first half. Now, they want to solve their opponents in only half court.

Yiyang tore off the disposable jacket and re-appeared. What he didn't expect was that when he appeared on the stage, what surrounded his ears was no longer the humiliating words "chicken fried rice", but the enthusiastic shouts of the Bulldogs fans!

"Come on man! Kill 'em!"

"Come on! Come on!"

"Can you give me your phone number!?" A girl sitting in the front row even yelled at Yiyang.

Yiyang's cold expression, not only did not make people hate him, but also made people feel a little cool.

After reappearing, Yiyang's matchup also changed from Harlan Gordy to John Harding, who is also a newcomer for the Mountaineer team's backup point guard.

This black defender is only 1.86 meters tall, and his body looks thinner than Yiyang Du's. But Yiyang did not underestimate the enemy like Harlan Gaudi, and took every opponent seriously, which is one of Yiyang's outstanding characteristics.

Harding's first attack was so forced that he couldn't even complete the task of organizing. Under Yiyang's close pressure, Harding could only rush out the ball with his two slender arms, and the Mountaineers finally relied on luck to hit two points.

Afterwards, the Bulldogs quickly launched a counterattack. In the beginning, the Bulldogs' No. 1 offensive point was Hayward, and the No. 2 offensive point was Shelvin Mack. Yiyang's role on the field is more of a passer.

But now that Stevens sent Yiyang to play, the purpose was very clear. He wants Yiyang to take up the responsibility of the first offensive point for the time being!

Unlike Wall and others, Yiyang is the kind of point guard who follows the "pass first" principle. He really can't be called a scoring machine, but that doesn't mean that Yiyang doesn't have the ability to score. In high school, Yiyang was the player with the most points per game on his team. And Yiyang's tomahawk smash at the beginning of the game is enough to explain some problems.

Yiyang's continuous shaking caused the overly nervous Harding to lose his defensive position. After the breakthrough, Yiyang did not choose to hit the basket, but suddenly stopped and shot a jumper.

Yiyang's shooting is not stable enough, but it is not completely lack of shooting ability. With almost no interference, Yiyang's pull-up jump shot bumped and fell into the net.

The cheers in the stands were louder than before. The fans didn't expect that the No. 1 defender had such a skill.

"This kid's tactical execution ability is really strong." On the Bulldogs' bench, Shelvin Mark smiled and communicated with head coach Stevens.

When Stevens asked him to organize the offense, he would do his part to create opportunities for his teammates and then pass the ball steadily. When Stevens asked him to score, he would not be soft, and scored two points as soon as he came on the court.

"We might be able to create miracles this season, Mark." Stevens replied with a smile, turning his eyes back to the basketball court.

Under the tough defense of the Bulldogs, the boys of the second unit of the mountain people once again ended their offense with a shot.

Yiyang pushed forward with the ball again. This Asian guard who played less than 20 minutes in the NCAA game has now become the object of fear of the Mountain Rangers.

Yiyang didn't sloppy, he borrowed his teammates' pick-and-roll on the right side of the basket and drove straight in, and ran towards the basket along the baseline.

Just when Yiyang broke through to the middle distance, this guy suddenly glanced beyond the three-point line, raised his hand, and seemed to be planning to pass the ball!

"The intention is too obvious, rookie!" The opposing center guarding the basket moved a step outside, intending to intercept the pass. However, Yiyang's pass is a fake, the breakthrough is the real goal!

He tricked the defender with a false fax and took two big strides towards the basket.

Yiyang leaped lightly, and the opponent's player in position 4 also stretched out his arms, intending to slap the ball away.

Everyone thought that Mao Yiyang couldn't escape, Tom Kling was even ready to cheer,

However, Yiyang, who raised his hand in the air, put the basketball down. After he glided from the left side of the basket to the right side, he threw the ball up again and made a layup with his back to the basket!

"I also used a tie rod to layup and avoided the block easily. The Bulldogs continued to score goals, and the point difference has become 12 points!"

"Fuck it!" Tom Kling couldn't help but yelled, what else does this yellow-skinned guy not know? Are you sure this guy isn't a John Wall with a different skin color?

"Also broke through the ball! His vision is very wide, and he assisted his teammates to score again!"

"Is this a layup? No, no, it's a pass behind the back. Everyone was fooled, including me. Another assist, good job!"

"Poor John Harding, he is already at a loss. Although he is also a rookie, he is completely at a loss on the court. Also, he made a breakthrough like a cloud and flowing water, made an easy layup, and scored two more points!"

"Also attracted the defense of the opponent's two inside players in the air and stuffed the ball into the hands of his own center. Smith dunked with both hands on the spot! Beautiful! Beautiful pass, beautiful dunk! 20 points, the Bulldogs have already scored The gap has widened to 20 points! Coach Stevens' strategy worked, and he didn't disappoint his coach, the fans, or everyone!"

Under the roar of the commentator and the fans, the 20-minute game between the Bulldogs and the Mountaineers officially came to an end. The score on the field was an incredible 22 to 42. The Bulldogs, who are playing at home, are 20 points ahead of the veteran Mountaineers! And most of these scores came from the last five minutes!

"9 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds and 2 steals, audience friends, please allow me to officially announce. Another NCAA star point guard has been born! Yiyang, he will definitely skyrocket with Butler University this season !" After the on-site commentator finished speaking, they couldn't help applauding Yiyang who was walking towards the player tunnel.

NCAA games are only divided into two halves, each of which lasts 20 minutes. Therefore, the game time is not as long as the NBA, and the data will naturally not be as exaggerated as the NBA.

Under such circumstances, he scored 9 points and 5 assists in the second half, which is already a very good result. You know, Yiyang only played ten minutes in the first half of the game!

Harlan Gaudi, the head of the mountain team who played 15 minutes, only scored 5 points and 2 assists.

"Lightning! Lightning! Lightning!..." The shouts of the fans still surrounded the entire stadium, and Yiyang's mother's eyes were flushed with excitement. They love their children!

Yiyang's crazy performance has temporarily come to an end, but the fans know that this season has just begun, and Yiyang's basketball career has just begun.

There are more exciting things to come!
