267 26 points in a single quarter, no slap in the face (Part 2)
Beverley's flagrant foul not only did not anger Wang Yi.
Instead, Wang Yi scored 5 points in a row, widening the point difference to 8 points in one fell swoop.
Beverly can be regarded as losing his wife and losing his troops.
Next, the two sides went back and forth and started fighting.
The Clippers' pickles and Leonard began to score points continuously.
Moreover, the Clippers' overall three-point shooting rate reached 42%, so they continued to hit three-pointers.
On the Lakers' side, since Wang Yi's offense changed the Clippers' defense, James and Big Eyebrow had an easy time playing.
James made a mid-range shot, and the thick eyebrows made a strong kill at the basket. James assisted Zhuang Shen for an alley dunk.
At the same time, Wang Yi is not just shooting three-pointers from the outside.
When he goes around the screen, he seems to be going outside, but sometimes he suddenly changes direction and goes towards the basket.
James' ground pass will come at the right time.
This kind of layup is the easiest way to score.
When Wang Yi, James and Nongmei all play well, how do you think the Clippers can defend themselves?
Each of these three people is an absolute strength.
If you only defend against thick eyebrows, it will be in vain for anyone to defend against thick eyebrows;
Beverley defended Wang Yi and was already thrown into a sieve by Wang Yi in the first quarter;
Leonard could limit James before.
But in the past two years, James has gotten older and become more and more demonic. He not only plays with your body, but also plays with your brain.
Moreover, his mid-range shooting has been developed in the past two years. He can basically do everything from turning back, turning around, stepping back and shooting.
So it seems that defending against these three people alone is not enough.
But double-teaming is even more unacceptable.
No matter who double-teams them, the other two will have excellent finishing opportunities.
This puts the Clippers in a difficult position.
So it seems that this period of time is between you and me. In fact, the Clippers are basically fighting alone, and the Lakers have James sorting out the offense, and their offense is obviously smoother.
With 6 minutes left in the first quarter, Nongmei took a break.
After a 3-minute rest, he came back on the court and replaced James.
Wang Yi and Nongmei were present.
Tyronn Lue thought this was their chance.
He asked Beverley and Reggie to double attack Wang Yi.
Wang Yi originally wanted to take advantage of James being off the court and hold the ball for a while.
But when he saw the opponent's double attack, he immediately changed his mind and asked Xiaojia to support the ball, while he kept running around the screen and played without the ball.
This makes Reggie and Beverly very uncomfortable.
You can't double-team Wang Yi when he's not holding the ball, right?
The Hawks have played this way before, but the other main players of the Lakers were not present at that time.
There are people with thick eyebrows present now.
Once Wang Yi gets a chance, he runs out of the three-point line.
He has hit 6 three-pointers before, which makes the Clippers afraid of his three-pointers.
As soon as he sees him running outside the three-point line, the players closest to him will immediately save him.
But in this case, the Clippers' defense will be torn to pieces.
Thick Eyebrow has a chance, Pope has a chance, Harrell has a chance, and Caruso has a chance.
This is why Wang Yi’s three points are called “strategic nuclear weapons.”
Even if he doesn't shoot three-pointers, as long as he stands on the three-point line, he will scare the opponent.
In desperation, Tyronn Lue could only change his defensive strategy once again.
Instead of flanking Wang Yi, let him attack with the ball and see what the effect is.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yi immediately changed his offensive strategy.
He picked up the ball at the top of the arc, faced Beverley's constant entanglements and provocations, and still ignored him.
At the same time, he waved to Nongmei.
Thick eyebrows understood, and he immediately mentioned going to the line to do a pick-and-roll with Wang Yi.
Wang Yi used the pick-and-roll with thick eyebrows to easily get rid of Beverley and reach the three-point line.
Seeing the opponent's big center coming over to defend, he made an easy mid-range shot and hit a two-pointer.
Tyronn Lue thought to himself, just two points is better than three points.
But he soon discovered something was wrong.
Wang Yi's mid-range shooting percentage is simply frighteningly high.
Basically no mistakes were made.
How to shoot from mid-range?
When the first quarter ended, the score was 42-30, and the Lakers had led by 12 points.
Among them, Wang Yi scored 26 points alone!
Although today is the home court of the Clippers, there are also many Lakers fans sneaking in.
Their excitement contrasted with the disappointment of surrounding Clippers fans.
There were several Lakers fans holding huge homemade playing cards in their hands, which read in crooked Chinese: Come on, Brother Yi! I love Brother Yi.
Wang Yi took a special look at these fans and found that they were not of Chinese descent.
They are American players.
He couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
These fans are also interested.
At the same time, in the Tencent NBA live broadcast room, fans suddenly became happy when they saw several Westerners holding signs with Chinese characters on the field.
"Brother Yi has begun to conquer these foreigners."
"Does that need to be said? That score of 82 a few days ago was no joke."
"I bet with a pack of spicy strips, Brother Yi will only have more and more foreign fans."

For the third time, O'Neal looked at Kenny Smith next to him with a joking expression.
Just looking and not speaking.
Seeing this made Kenny Smith feel a little scared.
"What are you looking at me for? I don't have any money. Don't even try to borrow a dollar from me."
O'Neill laughed:
"Your joke is not funny at all. Didn't you say that Wang could never score more than 25 points in the first playoff game? What now? 26 points in a single quarter!"
"Aren't you domineering?"
"Aren't you awesome?"
Kenny Smith waved his hand: "This is only the first quarter. Do you only watch the first quarter when watching the game? Then you can't evaluate a player's performance until the whole game is played?"
O'Neal raised his thumb in conviction:
"There are not many commentators like you who are shameless now. I am willing to give up. Then as you wish, wait until the game ends in two hours and see how he performs."
In fact, Kenny Smith is also a little embarrassed.
Who would have thought that this guy was so crazy that he exceeded his goal in one session.
But as a senior commentator, he still has to stick to his own point of view.
Originally he wanted to see the effect after half the game, but after thinking about it he changed it to the full game.
This way the fault tolerance rate is higher.
At the same time, NBA official Twitter also tracks the progress of the game in real time.
The tweet read: Lakers youngster Wang Yi scored 26 points in a single quarter, including 6 of 8 three-pointers.
The following comments have exceeded 1,000 in a very short period of time.
"Where's Pippen? Why aren't you talking? @scottypippen"
"The slap in the face makes a slap bang @Scottie Pippen"
"You said they would never get 25 points, but they gave you 26 points in the first quarter. Are you happy? @Scottie Pippen"
Of course, there are also @AmericanYang Yi and Pierce.
"@StephenA.Smith, come on, come out and take two steps."
"I said before that our brother Yi is not good at this or that, come on, come on, now you say it. @Stephen·a·Smith"
“@Paul Pierce, tell me what your Sports Illustrated cover curse is, I’d love to know.”
Of course, the general public didn't know that these guys were secretly laughing at this time.
They just rely on black stars to attract attention and make money.
The more you @ them, the more they make.

Stephen A. Smith was watching Wang Yi on TV at this time, sipping red wine and saying:
"Wang, I hope you will perform better and better in the future."
Chapter completed!
