In the entire first quarter, Wang Yi only got two easy shots.
Except for the first ball, he tried a three-pointer in the remaining opportunities.
But perhaps the opponent's constant fouls disrupted his game rhythm and the goal was not scored.
In subsequent games, he faced three or even four double-teams, so he could only pass the ball out.
Therefore, in the entire first quarter, he did not score in any sports game.
Of the eight points he scored in the first quarter, six came from the free throw line.
At this time, all the Kings players also saw the Grizzlies' intentions.
Logically speaking, this style of play is actually beneficial to the Kings as a whole.
After all, three or even four of them double-team Wang Yi. As long as Wang Yi passes the ball to an open teammate, his teammate will always get an open shot.
Of course, there is a big center Gobert standing under the basket on the opposite side. Although there is an open space, it is difficult to get an easy shot under the basket, but whether it is a mid-range shot or a long three-pointer, there is a big open space.
So as long as the Kings players are not at their best, it will not be difficult for the Kings to win.
But now there's a snag.
That was the flag Wang Yi set before the game.
As we all know, Wang Yi always speaks the truth.
Since he said he would win 60+ today, he must win 60+.
And now if Wang Yi ignores the current situation of the team and insists on forcing himself to score points, this will be very detrimental to the Kings.
Thinking of this, D'Antoni hesitated for a moment, and then said to Wang Yi:
"King, I have two things to say to you."
All players look to the coach.
Rose had guessed what the head coach was thinking at this time, and he also looked at Wang Yi.
Wang Yi said directly to the coach at this time: "Coach, I know what you are thinking. But I must get 60+ today, even if this will make the team lose!"
When he said this, all the players and coaches looked at him in silence.
They don't understand why Wang Yi is so stubborn today. In the past, Wang Yi always put the overall situation first.
Although his game statistics are always gorgeous, in fact, as he said, he never likes to collect statistics.
It's just that his personal ability is too strong, and just a dozen statistics will be very gorgeous.
He doesn't allow it due to his strength.
If he really wanted to improve his statistics, he wouldn't have averaged less than 30 points per game this season and lost the MVP.
With his ability, it is not easy to average 40 points per game.
But why did Wang Yi, who never likes to brush up on statistics, insist on setting a flag today and get 60+? Is 60+ in three consecutive games so important?
Next to him, Ross wanted to persuade Wang Yi, but he also knew that Wang Yi would never do anything without a purpose. He must have some intention to score 60+ points in a row.
Thinking of this, he came out to rescue Wang Yi:
"Wang, do you have to get 60+ points in three consecutive games for some kind of promise?"
Wang Yi nodded: "That's right."
Screw understood, and then he said to everyone:
"Each of us has made certain promises in our lives, and at certain specific moments, certain promises are very, very important, sometimes even more important than life, so although Wang's choice today seems very important,
It’s unreasonable, but I am willing to believe him and I support his choice.”
"I support it too."
Mane, Wang Yi's little fan, immediately added.
Little Danny also nodded firmly: "I also support it, no matter what the boss does!"
It was Wang Yi who gave Danny Jr. the opportunity to play in the NBA and taught him everything on and off the court, so he was able to grow so fast and have the opportunity to compete for the best rookie.
So no matter what Wang Yi does, he will support it.
Next to him, Danny, who was in a suit and wearing protective gear on his feet, also nodded: "And me!"
After hearing this, everyone nodded: "I support it too!"
"I support it too!"
Wang Yi also felt warm in his heart.
I made such an unreasonable move today, but my teammates supported me so firmly. If I didn't repay them, it would be inappropriate.
So he solemnly made a promise to the team members:
"Please rest assured, although we may not be able to win this game, I assure you that we will definitely win this year's championship!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded heavily.
Among the entire NBA, Wang Yi is probably the only one who dares to guarantee that players will win the championship this year.
And since Wang Yi guarantees that he can lead them to the championship, the outcome of today's game is not that important.
Ever since, the second quarter came on.
The first attack is carried out by the Kings.
Wang Yi did not take the ball at first, but waited in the left corner of the frontcourt for Danny to dribble the ball past half-court. Wang Yi immediately started to penetrate from the inside, trying to get around the screen.
But the Grizzlies have obviously made targeted arrangements for this.
When Wang Yi tries to get around the screen, other players will come to block Wang Yi's running route. They would rather give up their own defenders to block Wang Yi.
This makes it more difficult for Wang Yi to catch the ball.
When the attack time was about to come, Danny could only quickly rush to the inside, and then pass it to Zui Ge at a 45-degree angle on the left.
Big brother Wiggins jumped slightly, jumped up, and shot a three-pointer.
Whoosh!
The basketball hit the target.
Zui Ge is also open today.
Looking back, the Grizzlies quickly launched an attack. Morant held the ball and took the lead and rushed forward.
Wang Yi wanted to return to defense, but was blocked by Grizzlies players again.
This time Danny Jr. and Brother Zui both defended well, but now Morant is no longer the young kid who only wanted to dunk when he first entered the league.
At this time, he made a stop at the three-point line. After shaking off Little Danny with a change of rhythm, he continued to break into the inside. He avoided Brother Zui's block with a lever, then switched to his left hand in the air and scored with a hook.
.
Morant is also very efficient today.
He scored 21 points with this goal.
Looking back, Wang Yi continued to play in the frontcourt.
The Grizzlies still blocked Wang Yi, making it difficult for Wang Yi to move around. In the end, the Kings had no choice but to let others end the upcoming attack.
Wang Yi frowned slightly when he saw this.
Today the Grizzlies were determined not to let themselves score points.
It seems that we need to think of a solution.
So during the next attack, Wang Yi directly signaled to the coach next to him to call a timeout.
The coach nodded and immediately asked for a timeout.
During the timeout, the coach also knew the dilemma Wang Yi was currently facing.
He asked Wang Yi: "Wang, they will not hesitate to use three or four people to block you. It will be difficult for you to score points by yourself. Is there anything else you can do?"
Wang Yi nodded.
He said a few words like this and this.
Chapter completed!
