797 Let me shoot a three-pointer?
There is actually no suspense in the duel between Wang Yi and Morant.
For three consecutive rounds, Morant was either blocked or intercepted by Wang Yi.
Wang Yi defends seriously, and his defensive ability is very terrifying.
On the offensive end, he dunked on Morant twice and directly faced him once.
Morant was beaten without any temper.
Kings coach Jenkins pointed at Morant and shouted: "Stop one-on-one, your current ability is not up to his level."
Morant couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Coach, this is a bit shocking.
But having said that, although these words are hurtful, they are true.
This guy Wang Yi is really not someone I can challenge alone now.
So during the next attack, Morant had no choice but to call a screen.
Although he was dissatisfied, his ability was there.
He really had no choice.
Since he called for cover, there was no need for Wang Yi to be one-on-one with him.
On the next offense, he also called a screen.
Now the cake king Capela is even stronger than when he was with the Rockets.
The legs are spread apart to cover, and the quality of the cover is very high, allowing Wang Yi to easily get rid of the defender.
With his scoring ability, after he gets rid of his defender, Sea King Adams inside must come to help defend.
This time is the opportunity for King Cake Capella.
Wang Yi imitated James Harden and passed the ball with a trouser pocket.
It happened to be passed to Capela from the gap between the two.
Capela took the ball and hit a dunk.
In the second quarter, this scene happened at least four times.
At the end of the second quarter, Wang Yi scored only 7 points, and his assists reached 12 times.
He only scored seven points at halftime, but had 12 assists, which surprised the fans at the scene.
"This game didn't look like Wang Yi at all."
"Wang Yi only scored seven points in the half, which is simply unimaginable."
"But there were 12 assists in the half, which is unimaginable."
However, according to the two commentators at the scene, there were 12 assists in the half. It was not Wang Yi who was great, but the Kings players who shot very accurately today.
Silver Hair said: "This is too abnormal, this is not a normal Kings team. Their three-pointers cannot always be so accurate. Even if they win by more than a dozen points in this way in the first half, they are likely to be overturned in the second half."
go back."
Van Gundy shook his head repeatedly.
He once coached the Rockets during the Yao Mai era.
When he was the coach of the Rockets, he was a very conservative coach.
When practicing tactics, he would put a lot of tape on designated locations on the court.
When players are designated to run tactics, they must run to the position where the tape is posted.
Which player goes to which tape, everything must be meticulous.
Even a difference of 1 centimeter won't work.
You can say this is rigorous, but more people regard it as rigid.
Especially a head coach like Popovich, who often relies on on-the-spot responses, believes that the battlefield is ever-changing and cannot be limited by just putting on a few pieces of tape.
For a conservative person like Van Gundy to be the commentator, he naturally couldn't stand the Kings' current style of play.
"Wang Yi was a good shooting guard and was transformed into a point guard. As a result, he stopped scoring and only thought about passing the ball. The other members of the Kings felt good in the first half today, which allowed him to get 12 assists. But look
Look at his score, only 7 points. D'Antoni, this is simply a waste of money."
"The players of the Kings cannot always feel so good. If Wang Yi only thinks about passing the ball when they feel bad, then the result of the Kings will be unimaginable."
This is how the Grizzlies head coach comforted his players.
"They played so abnormally today. This is not their rhythm and it is not their game. So don't worry. We still play according to our rhythm and they will definitely collapse in the second half."
However, the fact is that after the second half, Wang Yi changed his style of play in the first half.
He suddenly launched a fierce offensive.
He made six of seven shots in the first three minutes and two more free throws.
One person scored 18 points.
And on the defensive end.
Wang Yi, Beverley, Barnes, Tucker and Capela.
The individual defense capabilities of these five people are all very good.
And after they are integrated into a whole, their defensive capabilities are even more terrifying.
In these three minutes, the Grizzlies only scored two points.
So the original score difference of 17 points suddenly reached 33 points.
This sudden wave of attacks stunned the Grizzlies.
Although the head coach called a timeout, they seemed to have no idea how to defend after resuming the game.
Almost everyone's defensive focus is on Wang Yi. At this time, Wang Yi can pass the ball.
Moreover, when he passed the ball, his teammates' three-point shooting percentages were surprisingly high.
Even the cake king Capela hit a three-pointer when he was in a pick-and-roll with Wang Yi.
At that time, because the opponent's defensive focus was on the inside, he could not follow the pass and could only rebound to the outside.
It was simply impossible for him to do this in the past.
Because he has no three-point ability, he has almost never made a three-pointer so far in his career.
Therefore, according to the technical statistics of various websites, his three-point shooting percentage is always 0%.
In this situation, if he bounces outside the three-point line, he can't do anything.
But in order to open up space for Wang Yi to break through inside, he could only bounce to the outside.
After Wang Yi broke into the paint, the Grizzlies defense instantly shrank to the paint.
Wang Yi shook his hand and passed the ball to Capela on the three-point line.
After Capela received the ball, he was almost unguarded for 5 meters in front of him.
All the Grizzlies players saw Capela taking the ball outside the three-point line, and no one stepped up to guard him.
Instead, they pounced on the other four members of the Kings team.
Capela originally wanted to pass it to others, but when he saw that others were already defending, he hesitated.
A big guy like him doesn't dare to dribble too much.
He held the ball in both hands and stood on the outside line, looking around like a big fool.
At this time Wang Yi pointed to the basket: "Shoot!"
Capella looked bitter.
Brother, when did you see me shoot a three-pointer?
Wang Yi yelled several times, asking him to take action, but Capela didn't dare to take action at all.
For a player like him who doesn't even take many mid-range shots, asking him to take three-pointers is simply a fantasy.
And the Grizzlies didn't attack him.
Just wait for him to handle the ball by himself.
As a result, the situation on the court seemed a bit stagnant.
The commentators shook their heads when they saw it.
"Oh, Capela is in trouble. He doesn't have any three-point ability. Now he is asked to shoot a three-pointer. Obviously Wang Yi's handling of this ball is not reasonable."
Van Gundy adjusted his Mediterranean hairstyle with his hands and shook his head repeatedly.
"I just said, Wang Yi is not suitable to play point guard. A qualified point guard will never pass the ball to a center without any three-point ability at this time."
The Grizzlies coach had a smile on his face at this time.
It was a bit of a failure for the Kings to let Wang Yi play point guard.
Kings coach D'Antoni also sighed.
There is nothing we can do about this.
No one can be perfect on the first day they play point guard.
After all, the point guard is the brains and engine of the team.
There are so many things to consider.
