Chapter 24 Most Arenas

Chapter 24 Most Arenas

After hastily practicing basic tactical moves for two days, the Los Angeles Lions ushered in the first game after reorganizing the team.

At four o'clock in the afternoon on the [-]th, the whole team rushed to Anaheim to warm up in a small stadium next to the Arrowhead Stadium.

Starting from the most basic fixed-point shooting, to breakthrough layups with simple blocking, and some low-post singles, Su Yang slowly opened up his physical condition and pondered how to better hit the basket. After all, the opponent was Howard. The three high.

I checked the information before and found that Howard, Josh, and Randolph Morris are all nearly two meters tall even though they are all in their senior year of high school. Had to figure out a way to pull it out.

During the warm-up, a few scouts walked into the arena and automatically joined the scouts who arrived earlier to stand in the left stand.

"Jonathan, your report on Su Yang was too exaggerated. The overall score was 117 points. Was it intentional?"

Scout Tyler Ingle joked, "You must want to promote your Draft Express website. I have to say that you have succeeded. Recently, your website is more popular than Rivals. You will not charge us to view the data in the future. cost?"

After the words fell, all the scouts burst out laughing.

Jonathan Givony, who was wearing a draft express T-shirt, also laughed, "I know, some of you have seen Su Yang's game, and the basic view is that he is very strong, but not as strong as the scouting report describes. In that way, that is your cognitive limitation, I understand very well. I really want to promote my website, but I did not exaggerate the scouting report about Su Yang, I know you think he is very Play less against powerful enemies, and the gold content of the game is low.

I hope that in the next game, you can understand that he is indeed at the same level as LeBron James. "

Between the words, Jonathan Givony looked serious and calm, without half-joking or pretending that he was absolutely right.

It's more of a 'wait and see' confidence.

All the scouts put away their smiles and pondered each other.

Su Yang's opponent in this game is the Atlanta Celtics led by Howard. Howard and Josh Smith are scheduled to participate in the draft directly after the end of their senior year. Howard has the potential to be the No. [-] pick, and Josh also has the potential to be a lottery.

Randolph Morris is slightly worse, but with a height of more than two meters, he is quite strong in the high school league.

That is to say, Howard has not entered the Rivals ranking list for the time being because of his status as a senior player, but if it is really a ranking, he will lose to LeBron at most. His dribbling skills like a guard, his explosive bullet speed, and his defensive strength are blind visible.

All scouts know that since his sophomore year in high school, Howard has received invitations to college teams every day.

It can indeed be said that since the Blair Middle School where Luol Deng is, Su Yang has really faced a strong enemy.

While the scouts were thinking, Su Yang finished his warm-up.

Self-care went to the sidelines to rest, and Farmar followed him, showing hesitation for a moment, and then said: "You don't need to care about us, don't give priority to cooperation, you just show off, many of us are embracing it." Come with a learning attitude..."

As a veteran of the AAU league, Jordan Farmer took the initiative to introduce the basic situation to Su Yang. Except for Su Yang and himself, the other eight teammates are all freshmen in high school. take care of.

After Farmar finished speaking, the eight teammates around nodded in unison, looking at Su Yang like a rock star.

It belongs to star chasing at close range.

"Also..."

Su Yang nodded. Originally, he planned to distribute the ball evenly. Since everyone wants to see him perform, then perform. "But when you receive my pass, don't hesitate to shoot. If you want to rush, rush. It will make it harder for me to fight..."

Seeing that his teammates except Farmar were a little dazed, Su Yang thought quickly and added: "Just think of me as Kobe after O'Neal's absence. I will take a lot of shots and pass the ball to you, but your mistakes or There is no need to worry about blacksmithing."

"Understood!" All the teammates suddenly realized, using the description of Kobe after O'Neal's absence is simple and easy to understand.

During the conversation, a burst of noise came from the entrance of the arena.

Su Yang turned his head to look, and found that Howard led the team, smiling all over his face, he looked very happy indeed.

"Hey Sue!"

Howard waved his hands and shouted. Before Su Yang could figure out what was going on, he quickly rushed to Su Yang and reached out his hand to signal, "I'm your fan. Your defense is really good. You steal the opponent four times in a row. I'll play as a defender." I always dream like that!"

"Hello, your defense is also great!"

Su Yang raised his hand to give Howard a high-five. He said that Howard is also a typical case of open-ended growth. He was only 178 cm when he graduated from junior high school, but after entering high school, in less than three years, he has dreamed of jumping to 205 cm. The guard has become a center forward.

Immediately afterwards, Josh Smith, Randolph Morris and others also came up to high-five and chatted a few words about LeBron.

Just about to start a discussion, the head coach of the Atlanta Celtics yelled to remind him to warm up quickly, and the time was tight.

"Then let's take a group photo first. Before the game starts, the happy atmosphere has not been destroyed..." Howard seemed to be unable to speak without smiling, even if he secretly provoked him with a smile, "I sincerely I hope you can beat LeBron..." Between words, Howard recalled the past when LeBron scored 55 points before, and lamented that he had no chance of revenge in high school.

"Come!"

Su Yang could hear the faint sarcasm, but he didn't bother to think too much. After Kaka took a group photo, he returned to the venue to continue warming up.

Howard also started to warm up, but it was just some simple running, which looked very amateurish compared to Su Yang.

At five o'clock in the blink of an eye, the game started.

The referee blew his whistle and threw it lightly. Howard easily touched the ball first. The Atlanta Hawks got the ball and launched an attack first.

The bullhorn formation in the front field is in position, Josh Smith receives the ball on the left wing, and passes to the left waist with both hands raised high.Howard took the ball and turned around, squeezed away the Lions defender effortlessly, kicked two steps to the basket, and it was a dunk.

After the dunk landed, Howard smiled and pointed at Su Yang, as if asking: What do you think of my dunk?

Su Yang responded with a smile, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Mainly in the past when encountering this kind of situation in the Santa Monica high school team, they will inevitably adopt the strategy of going around the front or defending in advance + weak side rotation, but in the Lions, those basic strategies have not been practiced for a long time, and they can only watch Howard Raid the basket.

"If you are not used to it, you must get used to it..."

After making up his mind, Su Yang dribbled the ball across the center line, found cover at the top of the arc and hit the free throw line. Seeing that Howard did not press out, Randolph Morris was also eyeing the basket, and the pursuers behind him did not get close in time. Decisively stop and take off to make a mid-range shot.

Basketball clangs like iron.

Howard jumped up and grabbed the rebound, and the Atlanta Celtics launched a fast-break counterattack.Josh continued to fall on the left wing, received the pass, raised his hands and then divided the left waist. The players defending Howard tried to go forward, but the height difference was too large to interfere.

After receiving the basketball, Howard turned around and took a big step, took off and dunked, and shouted when he landed: I'm starting to warm up!

Many scouts on the sidelines heard the words with different expressions, the irony was too strong, it depends on how Su Yang plans to respond.

Easy side Lions attack.

Su Yang still looked for cover, easily got rid of the defense and hit the free throw line. Seeing that Howard still didn't press up, but Josh shrank from the short corner very obviously to help defend and control the dribbling route, and decisively stopped and jumped again, facing Howard with a smile CIC.

Basketball clangs like iron.

Howard grabbed the rebound casually, and Atlanta's fast break against the Celtics launched again.Josh received a long pass from the center line, leaped to the frontcourt, raised the ball around the top, crossed and changed directions, avoided Farmar who was trying to make an offensive foul, and scored with a layup.

Turning around and attacking again, Su Yang used the cover to kill to the free throw line. He thought Howard was still squatting, but he never thought that Howard would suddenly go up and press out, and Randolph Morrison on the weak side also covered him, and he was chasing behind. The players formed a three-sided encirclement.

The change came suddenly, and the risk of strong sudden and strong shots was relatively high. Su Yang subconsciously threw the ball to the weak side and the right wing. He mainly played in Santa Monica. Mi will run in time to respond.

But the moment I threw it out, I knew it was wrong.

This is the L.A. Lions, not Santa Monica High.

Sure enough, the basketball was passed directly to the scouts on the sidelines, and laughter erupted in the arena, that mistake was too much.

The two sides switched offense and defense. The Atlanta Celtics still started with one inside and four outside. Josh still received the ball on the left wing, and then still lobbed it to Howard on the left waist. Dela arm fouled, but 2+1.

Seeing Howard standing on the free throw line with a smile, Su Yang had a little headache, mainly on the Atlanta Celtics side, the trio of Howard, Josh and Randolph Morris obviously had a long time of joint training, offensive and defensive The cooperation is quite tacit.

Josh stands on the left wing to catch the ball and then pass Howard. Not only is he tall and long, it is difficult to interfere, but he can also help Howard open up space inside. Lewis to cooperate with Howard.

"Howard doesn't like to play pick-and-rolls, but likes to play with big men who can shoot three-pointers. It suits him very well. The configuration of the Magic is his peak. What later Gasol and Kobe, and even Nash and Harden, all almost mean…"

Between emotions, Taylor Ingle whispered.

"Look, Jonathan, I'm just saying that Su Yang's high-end game is biased. Once there is no offensive and defensive system built around him, and he encounters a strong inside defense, he can only float in the mid-range and inefficient mid-range shots. Arenas level…”
