One Guard
Vol 3 Chapter 746: : 2 defenders facing each other
Shelvin Mark clenched his fists tightly. This Yiyang fellow student might be able to fight against Bledsoe's muscular point guard, but he was afraid of such a quick-witted guy. Thomas's lifelike fake movements and lightning speed made Mark suddenly lose his temper.
Carlisle didn't expect that Thomas would be so knowledgeable in playing Mark. He thought that the strong Mark could put more pressure on Thomas.
With that additional penalty hit, Thomas has allowed the Celtics to score 6 points in a row so far. The Mavericks' advantage in the first quarter of the game has been swept away by Thomas in an instant.
Stevens's tactics for the four shooters to open space for Thomas are really bold. But as the saying goes, wealth and wealth are in danger. Now, isn't the Celtics rewarded?
Subsequently, Shelvin Mark began to organize the offense. When the ball passed to Iguodala, Evan Turner made a steal. But the timing and accuracy of Turner's action were obviously not good enough. He didn't even touch the basketball, but hit Iguodala's back firmly.
The referee blew his whistle and Turner fouled. Hearing the referee's whistle, Yiyang rushed onto the court with a stride.
"I'm sorry, buddy, you should have rested a little longer." Mark Chao Yiyang walked over, shaking his head helplessly as he walked.
"No, you have done your best. It doesn't matter, go down and relax." Yiyang patted Mark's ass, and then glanced at little Thomas.
"Listen, I don't want to see him score easily anymore!" Before going on the field, the task Carlisle explained was still haunting Yiyang's mind.
Since you are so good today, let's kill it with real swords and guns!
In his first attack after Yiyang came on the field, he showed a strong offensiveness. This time, Yiyang did not let go of the opportunity to break through Thomas. He used Gobert's extremely high-quality pick and roll to enter the penalty area. Seeing that the defense was hopeless, Olynik directly grabbed Yiyang's arm.
Yiyang hurriedly threw the basketball to the hoop, and then fell severely. But the ball that was thrown hastily fell into the net after jumping three or five times on the basket!
"Hat!?" Mike Brin hugged his head with his hands. "Just now, maybe I didn't even prepare for shooting!"
Olynik is obviously also dumbfounded. Originally, he deliberately fouled to prevent Yiyang from scoring. It's all right now, the scoring was not prevented, and an additional penalty was sent.
"Almost done, kid, keep working hard!" After Yiyang stood up, he smiled sarcastically at Olynik.
Yiyang was not the kind of person who would proactively provoke, but just now he could obviously feel that Olynyk used no necessary force. It's okay to deliberately foul, but deliberately throwing people out is not a good habit. To put it bluntly, Yiyang feels that the Canadian center is not playing cleanly. And Yiyang has never had a bad attitude towards people who are not clean.
Stevens sighed. Now, can't even deliberate fouls prevent him from scoring?
As soon as he played, Yiyang gave back Thomas a three-pointer. But the Celtics fans did not become depressed because of this. They knew that on the offensive end, Thomas Jr. could make up for it all!
The four shooters opened outside the three-point line, and the three-point line was completely vacuumed, creating a hotbed for Thomas's breakthrough. The Celtics' tactics are exactly the same. They scored six points in a row and there is no reason to change their tactics.
One of the Celtics' jobs is to help Thomas offense. They send at least four players who can shoot three pointers at the same time. As long as Thomas can pass his perimeter defender, it will create tremendous pressure on the opponent's inner line.
But the point of this tactic is actually not those four who can shoot three-pointers, but whether Thomas can pass his defenders!
Thomas Jr. is especially good at playing rhythm. His sudden stop makes countless defenders in the league swayed by him. But Yiyang himself is also a defender who relies on emergency stops, so he can judge Thomas's rhythm changes more accurately.
Little Thomas slowed down after approaching Yiyang, but Yiyang's nerves did not slow down. He knew that Thomas just wanted to confuse the defensive players.
Sure enough, in the next second, Thomas suddenly accelerated and changed direction. If Mark or someone else is defending him, his breakthrough must have succeeded! It's a pity that at this moment in front of him is Yiyang, who has been selected as the best defensive team for two consecutive years!
Yiyang quickly moved one step horizontally, completely blocking Thomas's breakthrough route! As soon as Thomas was stopped, the entire tactic was invalidated!
"Damn it." Stevens gritted his teeth. Sure enough, the little Thomas still couldn't pass Yiyang smoothly.
Seeing this situation, Olynyk and Jerebko immediately came up to cover Thomas, but this time when Thomas used the pick and roll to bypass Yiyang, Wade also came up in time.
The Celtics hadn't made a shot, and the offense had already failed.
Later, Olynik asked Gobert for the ball inside. But his forced layup was so crooked that he almost couldn't even touch the basket.
This Canadian didn't have the risk of eating Gobert, he was already thankful.
All the Celtics retired quickly and almost gave up the fight for offensive rebounds. After Yiyang came on the field, the defensive pressure on the opponent was also completely different.
However, even if it is a battle of positions, the Celtics lineup does not have any advantage. Wade ran away from Bradley and quickly cut in. Yiyang directly uploaded the basketball over Thomas Jr.'s head and sent it directly to Wade.
After Wade hit the basket, he attracted Evan Turner's defense, but the "Flash" did not make it strong, but calmed down.
Iguodala put a cold shot in the left bottom corner and hit a steady three-pointer. Although the goal was not a direct assist by Yiyang, his calm command and organization made the goal with one hand.
After scoring 6 points in a row, Yiyang did the same thing as Thomas. The Celtics had only just begun to take off, they were ruthlessly suppressed by Yiyang.
Little Thomas took a breath, this guy Yiyang is indeed not easy. It's no wonder that even victorious players like Kobe are full of praise for Yiyang. Only by playing against him in person can you know how terrible he is.
Defensively, offensively, and organized, Yiyang has almost no obvious shortcomings on the court. With such a person leading the Dallas Mavericks, it is not uncommon for them to have an unprecedented 73 wins.
Yiyang wants to hit his 73 wins, and Thomas Jr. also wants to lead the team to sixth in the East. Even if the situation has begun to be detrimental to the Celtics, he has no plans to give up.
There is something in little Thomas’ arsenal!
This time, the Celtics did not continue the tactics that allowed Thomas to break through with four more people. High screen, this is the most basic and most efficient tactic for the Celtics. Now they decided to return to square one.
Thomas, who used the screen to break through the penalty area, now has only two options, pass or layup. But no matter which one you choose, the chances seem to be not good.
Pass, no space. There is still no room for a layup. But Thomas still did not hesitate, but directly took off, straightened his arms, and threw the shot!
No, Thomas is not so much a throwing shot, it is better to say that his actions are more like hooks.
This is the advantage of left-handed players. Left-handed players tend to be more difficult to defend. Thomas Jr. makes good use of this advantage. He dribbled the ball to put pressure on the defender, then took off as he approached the basket with a small left-handed jump hook. This kind of offense is almost impossible to be stopped.
The basketball is hollowed into the net, and the North Shore Garden is rejuvenated.
"Interesting, this guy is really rich in offensive methods!" Carlisle looked at Thomas with interest. It is not unreasonable that such a short height can gain a foothold in the NBA.
But in response to Thomas’ small jump hook, Yiyang responded after being scored four points, which was to block Thomas’ left side in advance.
Because the little Thomas, who is left-handed, can only use his left hand to complete the jump hook when he breaks through from the left.
Use your brain to defend, the terrible is terrible here. As long as he suffered a loss or two, Yiyang can immediately come up with a solution.
When Yiyang blocked Thomas' left side in advance, his jump hook could not be used. The Celtics' offense once again stalled briefly, until Thomas Jr. pulled out a brand new weapon from his arsenal.
Use the basket to cover the layup, this is Thomas' new method. In this regard, Kyrie Irving and Yiyang are both masters. They will not choose a regular layup, but use the basket to protect themselves. Lie the opponent with a fake action, as if to shoot from one side of the basket, but switch to the other side in the air, and use the basket to separate the ball from the defender. To put it more bluntly, it is to do some pull-rod or hand-changing movements in the air, and use the barrier of the basket to avoid blocking shots.
Little Thomas used this trick to kill again, scoring consecutively under the block of Yiyang and Gobert.
Off the court, even Carlisle couldn't help but want to applaud. Yiyang and Thomas, the match between these two guys was really wonderful!
Little Thomas is suppressed by Yiyang, he will think of new ways to score. When Yiyang was scored, he would figure out a new way to deal with Thomas.
Two highly skilled point guards thought about their own progress on the court, making Stevens and Carlisle both "idlers". Of course, the excitement of the game can not be lowered.
However, the best way to deal with this trick is not to eat it. Don't rush to block shots in the air, wait until the opponent has the intention of layup before waving your arms.
At the end of the second quarter, when Thomas Jr. was blown out by Yiyang for two consecutive draw-bar layups, he knew that this trick was no longer working!
What should I do! ? Little Thomas's mind was spinning fast. He rummaged through his weapon arsenal and found that all the weapons with great power had been used on Yiyang himself.
After that, little Thomas fell into deep despair. Because he found that he could no longer think of a good way to deal with Yiyang~www.readwn.com~ but Yiyang did not stop there. In the last two minutes of the game, Yiyang was in the situation of zero-closing Thomas. With a sudden pass, led the Mavericks to a 7-0 offensive wave, and before the end of the half game, the point difference was widened to 11 points.
The two-digit difference is not good news for the Celtics. Moreover, it is still in the case that Thomas has no move.
The two point guards played brilliantly in the second quarter, and their confrontation with each other can be regarded as one of the most exciting guard confrontations of the season.
But it is a pity that the game not only needs to be played wonderfully, but also to determine the outcome. Moreover, there can only be one winner.
After halftime, Thomas scored 15 points and 5 assists. There is no doubt that this is a remarkable result. But what to do in the second half? Little Thomas has no clue.
On the Mavericks' side, Yiyang frowned, as if still reluctant to leave the court. What about the second half of the game? Completely under the control of Yiyang!
After only a half-time, Stevens knew that the Celtics had little chance in this game. In half of the game, Yiyang forced out the strongest little Thomas. But in the second half of the game, when Yiyang could be stronger, little Thomas could no longer make it.
The offensive quality of the Celtics depends entirely on the offensive quality of Thomas Jr. It's not that other people can't score, but that other people's scores can't influence the game.
Mike Brin felt a little regretful looking at the desolate little Thomas. You are an excellent point guard, you should have won honor and victory.
It's a pity, you ran into a historically terrifying opponent...()
