Human beings are very strange creatures.
People of the previous generation can't stand the next generation, and the next generation can't stand the next generation.
This rule still applies in the basketball world.
The older generation of players look down on the new generation of players.
For example, Pippen and Oscar Robertson once looked down on Curry;
Another example is Pippen and Rodman, who look down on James;
For example, Pippen and Pierce look down on Harden.
However, Jordan has always been tolerant and even appreciative of the new generation of players.
Jordan encourages them to pursue their own footsteps.
He will even encourage a new generation of players to strive to surpass some of his own records.
Maybe this is why other stars can only be called stars, but Jordan is a great legendary superstar and the god of basketball.
This is the pattern.
Since Wang Yi defeated Zhuang Shen on both offense and defense in the paint, the Nets had to send out their substitute inside man.
But none of their starting big men can withstand Wang Yi's ravages, let alone their substitute big men.
The backup center only played two minutes and accumulated three fouls.
Steve Nash had to use a third center.
If this is not enough, other players must be allowed to double-team Wang Yi.
Originally, Wang Yi would not be double-teamed during normal times, but now this is not feasible.
Wang Yi can do whatever he wants under the basket, and their center will always commit fouls.
If we keep playing like this, all three centers will have to be sent off before the fourth quarter.
But was O'Neal afraid of double-teaming at his peak?
Just give him a gap and he can squeeze in.
And at his peak, O'Neal not only attacked by himself, but also passed the ball.
It's just that everyone has always ignored O'Neal's passing at his peak. O'Neal averaged close to 4 assists per game at his peak.
And now Wang Yi's organizational ability is much better than O'Neal.
So when the opponent double-teams him, the open space on the outside can easily get shooting opportunities.
Beverley and Tucker's three-pointers in today's starting lineup were not very good.
So although the Kings have maintained a six or seven point lead, their lead has not expanded.
However, when Danny came on the court, he hit three three-pointers in just two minutes, instantly widening the point difference to 13 points.
Due to Danny's mischief, the Nets did not dare to double-team Wang Yi too hard. As a result, Wang Yi beat him twice in the paint to 21.
At the end of the first quarter, the Kings already led the Nets by 15 points.
This result was unexpected by everyone.
Nearly 80% of people were optimistic about the Nets.
As a result, the Nets were led by the Kings by 15 points in the first quarter.
Wang Meng said in summary: "Oh, in this first quarter, that thug No. 0 is back again. What Wang Yi beat in this first quarter is simply a bandit, a complete thug. I don't care how many people are in front of you, I
Just pull it up and dunk it. I don't care if you are the center or guard on the opposite side, as long as you dare to take action in front of me, I will slap you down."
Michael Qiaoshan also nodded: "I think the Nets never expected that Wang Yi would suddenly perform like this and have such a thug temperament, so they were caught off guard due to lack of preparation before the game."
Wang Meng smiled and said: "No one could have predicted this change. Did you expect Wang Yi to perform like this before the game?"
Michael Qiaoshan shook his head: "I really don't know how to do this."
Wang Meng looked at the data on the tablet: "In the first quarter, Wang Yi scored 25 points alone, Danny scored 13 points in just three minutes, and the two of them scored 38 points.
How can I still use the Internet?”
Michael Qiaoshan responded: "Yes, no one can beat this. However, I believe that the Nets will never give up. They will definitely counterattack in the second quarter, and the Kings must also be prepared."
During the intermission of the first quarter, in the Nets dugout, coach Nash and three assistant coaches were scratching their heads and thinking of solutions.
However, for a while they couldn't think of any solution at all.
If there was any solution, other team coaches would have figured it out long ago when O'Neal was at his peak, and they would not have allowed O'Neal to kill everyone on the court.
The second quarter will begin soon.
Wang Yi did not take the field immediately.
After all, the lead is now 15 points.
And although the Peak O'Neal Experience Card allows him to have the terrifying power and steps at the basket like O'Neal, it also consumes a lot of his physical energy.
So I have to rest for a few minutes to ensure that I have enough physical strength to compete with the blocker in the fourth quarter.
None of the Big Three of the Nets had any rest at this time.
They must take advantage of Wang Yi's absence to quickly close the score.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to get closer to the score after Wang Yi comes on the court.
During the few minutes that Wang Yi took a rest, the Nets launched a fierce counterattack.
But Danni is in really good condition.
After only playing 4 minutes in the second quarter, he hit two more three-pointers.
After only playing for 5 minutes, he made 6 of 8 three-pointers and scored 18 points.
This made the home fans go crazy.
Commentator O'Neill kept nodding:
"In the past two seasons, we can see Danny's growth visible to the naked eye. At the beginning, he only occasionally shot three-pointers, but now as long as he has a chance, even if it is just a slight chance, he will definitely take it. And his shooting percentage is high.
Extremely high, reaching 43.7%. In the playoffs, it even reached 45.1%."
"It can be said that he is a Stephen Curry who cannot organize, and a Klay Thompson who cannot defend."
Michael Jordan nodded: "No matter how strong a star is, he still needs helpers around him. Danny is a qualified helper around Wang Yi. If he can improve his defense, he will have no problem starting in the starting lineup next season."
After four minutes in the second quarter, the Kings still led by 13 points.
Relying on Danny's three-pointer and the defense of other players, they managed to withstand the first round counterattack of the Big Three in blocking.
And when Wang Yi came on the court again, the Nets were already in decline again.
On the contrary, Wang Yi had already rested for 5 minutes, including the rest between sessions.
Full of physical energy.
After coming on the court, he was killing everyone in the paint.
However, when Wang Yi was killing everyone in the paint, Capela's role was greatly weakened.
He does not have the ability to shoot long distance from the outside. At this time, in order to open up space for Wang Yi, he must go to the outside.
Seeing this, D'Antoni simply replaced Capela and replaced him with Xiao Qiao, who has high-post support and can shoot three-pointers.
Let Xiao Qiao and Wang Yi play high and low positions to coordinate.
Xiao Qiao can pass the ball to Wang Yi while standing above the free throw line.
Moreover, Wang Yi does not just play in singles in the low post. He can cooperate with Xiao Qiao on the line in pick-and-roll.
Chapter completed!
