809 Coquettish pass
Originally, the game between the Kings and the Heat was regarded as a continuation of last season's finals.
After all, the Kings and Heat are similar in strength.
And now the Heat are at the top of the Eastern Conference, and the Kings are second in the Western Conference.
The duel between the two teams can be said to be full of spectacle.
But no one expected that the Kings would lead by 22 points in the first half.
This shocked all the fans.
Courtside commentator O'Neal asked Reggie Miller next to him: "Why do you think the Kings surprised everyone in the first half and led the Heat by 22 points?"
Reggie Miller didn't hesitate: "Three points, of course three points."
As the three-point marksman in NBA history, he is of course focused on three-pointers.
"The Kings' three-point shooting in the second quarter was crazy. Wang Yi, Danny and Carmelo Anthony worked together to shoot 10 of 17 three-pointers. So even in the second quarter, their defensive efficiency was very average.
, but on the offensive end, their offensive efficiency can completely make up for their defensive deficiencies."
O'Neal nodded: "You are right, the three-pointer is indeed an important reason, but there is another more important reason, and that is Wang Yi's passing."
"Because his passing was so sharp, the Heat did not dare to relax their defense on the inside. As a result, their defense on the outside was somewhat lax. At this time, Wang Yi passed the ball to the outside again, and their three-point shooter
You will get easier shooting opportunities. So I say Wang Yi can be considered an excellent point guard now."
Reggie Miller also had to admit: "Yes. Through more than a month of games, we found that Wang Yi also has a special talent in sorting out the team's offense. Just give Capela the few times just now
As far as passing the ball, I don’t think anyone in the current NBA can pass that kind of pass.”
"If I have to look for it in history, I'm afraid the only ones are White Chocolate Williams and Magic Johnson."
At halftime, the players were on their way back to the locker room.
The Kings players came over one after another, rubbing Danny's head to encourage him.
Hield: "Danny, great job, let's continue in the second half."
Mitchell: "I didn't see it, you kid is so sharp in three-pointers."
Barnes also hugged Danny's shoulder: "Danny, now you are a very important member of our team."
From just playing garbage time last season, he hit two buzzer-beaters in the playoffs.
Until this season, he has now become an important member of the Kings rotation.
In the last five games, he has often scored around 15 points.
His growth is obvious to all.
But you just lowered your head and walked forward silently without speaking.
But it can be seen that his steps are much faster than before.
Wang Yi slapped Danny hard on the shoulder: "You are my sword-wielding guard!"
It was only then that Danny raised his head slightly and glanced at Wang Yi.
He quickly lowered his head again.
After returning to the locker room, Coach D'Antoni looked at Wang Yi who was loosening his shoelaces and couldn't help scratching the silver 28 points.
Wang Yi often doesn't follow his own arrangements on the court and plays entirely according to his own ideas.
In this situation, the coach is usually very angry. After the player comes off the field, he will often criticize him severely, or even put him on the bench for a period of time to let him reflect.
But the problem is that facts have proven that Wang Yi's style of play is always the most efficient.
Even as long as he doesn't do what the coach wants, the game can be said to be a sure win.
This makes it impossible to get angry even if you are angry.
In the end, Coach D'Antoni could only comfort himself. Wang Yi is not an ordinary player, he is a thoughtful player.
Because his style of play is very changeable, sometimes he can be as violent as O'Neal, sometimes he can thread the needle like Paul, and sometimes he can be as explosive as Westbrook, so in every game he will play according to his own style.
Adjusting the style of play on the spot is something that the coach cannot figure out at all.
So D'Antoni made a decision.
From now on, let Wang Yi fight however he wants.
At this time, the Heat's coach was also pouring chicken soup to the players, especially Butler, who is also a fighting maniac just like Wang Yi.
No matter how far behind he is, he is still full of fighting spirit.
At this time, he continued to encourage the players and launched a counterattack against the Kings in the second half.
Inspired by his enthusiasm, the players' fighting spirit became high again.
However, their high fighting spirit was destroyed by Wang Yi within three minutes of playing in the second half.
He once again showed off his free passing.
During a pick-and-roll with Capela, he seemed to have lost his dribble.
The ball bounced toward the inside.
Adebayor on the inside quickly reached out to grab the ball.
As a result, after the ball came to Adebayor, it seemed to have suddenly accelerated, passing through his crotch in an instant and reaching the hands of Capela behind him. After Capela got the ball, he dunked again.
This sudden acceleration of the pass shocked everyone present.
Wang Yi clearly seemed to have made a mistake. The ball flew weakly towards Adebayor. Why did it suddenly accelerate after landing in front of Adebayor?
When the on-site director placed a red circle on Wang Yi's right wrist in the video playback, everyone found the clue.
It turns out that Wang Yi did not make a dribbling error. It looked like a mistake. In fact, it was a pass.
And when passing the ball, he gave the ball a forward rotation force.
When the ball flies towards Adebayor, it spins forward at high speed.
When it lands on the ground in front of Adebayor, it will pop forward quickly, and after popping up again, the height will be much lower, so that it can avoid Adebayor's interception ball and pass under his crotch.
At this time, the live footage showed Wang Yi for a long time.
O'Neal and Reggie Miller couldn't think of any other words.
"This pass is so cool."
"It's really amazing that someone could pass the ball like this."
All the Kings players stood up and shouted in awkward Mandarin...
"Holy shit, awesome-"
Mitchell even spread his hands to the audience and shrugged with disdain: "These foreigners are so pitiful, they can't even say shit."
So in the second half, under Wang Yi's guidance, the Kings still scored efficiently.
With three minutes left in the third quarter, they already led by 30 points.
The Kings players were almost vomited by Wang Yi.
Especially Capela inside, who has dunked countless times in this game.
The score has reached 28 points.
I have to sigh, it is so easy to play with Wang Yi.
Chapter completed!
