Four Hundred and Eighty-One: Sao but 3 Goals

Kelly Irving, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2011 draft. After James left the Cavaliers, Cleveland's new spiritual pillar.

Irving's numbers are gorgeous, averaging 18.5 points and 5.4 assists in his rookie season. But unlike Wall and other champions who opened high and moved low, Irving not only did not regress in the second year of his career, but also made significant progress.

This season, Irving's scoring average rose to 22.5 points! In the case of averaging one more three-pointer than last year, the three-point shooting rate is the same as last season, close to 40%! This gorgeous data also made Irving an All-Star backup this year.

As a second-year player, this is already a great honor. After all, not everyone is like Link and can be an All-Star starter as a sophomore.

In addition to excellent data and the status of the champion, Irving is most talked about by his gorgeous style of play.

Irving's offense is dominated by fancy dribbling breakthroughs. Even in NBA-level defense, Irving is comfortable making those complex, street-like dribbles.

Irving's outstanding highlights of a season can definitely make most fans climax in place.

Therefore, Owen's one-on-one singles ability is definitely quite strong. Even within the NBA, no one dares to say that he can absolutely be contained.

Therefore, Irving is not even afraid of looking for a one-on-one target among the All-Star players.

Irving knew that when looking for players like Kobe and James, because of their status, they might not pull down their faces to fight him.

So, Irving planned to find a player with similar qualifications as himself. Therefore, only one year before Irving entered the league, Link became the first choice.

As expected by Owen, Link accepted his invitation to heads-up. But what Owen didn't expect was that Link was so confident that he even said things like "I'll let you in half"!

After Link said these words, the other stars who were watching immediately exploded. Link is a hedgehog, he's fine as long as he doesn't offend him, but the more you challenge him, the more dangerous Link becomes.

"Okay okay, guys, let's all make room! Kelly Irving vs. Link, the All-Star Game is about to start early! Since they want to play, let them play!" Randolph immediately got up, and the group gradually spread out, leaving half of the basketball court to Link and Owen.

Link rolled his eyes at Randolph,

This guy is really standing and talking without pain. This time it's good, if you don't fight, you have to fight.

Owen held the basketball and smiled slightly. Now that there are so many reporters here, if True Link wins the duel, he won't be in the sky?

And since seeing Irving knocking Knight down yesterday, Link also wanted to experience for himself what it was like to defend Irving.

The two of them really wanted to fight each other.

"Let's play five goals. Three points and two points are only one point. Whoever scores the first goal five times wins. The side who scored the goal will continue to hold the ball in the next round, and will not exchange until the shot is missed or stolen. The ball. The rules are simple, so, do you serve first or I serve first?" Irving couldn't wait, and he started the game immediately.

"You come first, otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to attack. Because if I come first, I will definitely hit 5 goals in a row." After Link finished speaking, he took the basketball and threw it to the ground. to Owen.

Looking at Link's confident appearance, the guard felt as if he had picked the wrong one for a duel...

Before the duel started, Link had already made Owen nervous with his trash talk. Although he entered the league only a year earlier than Irving, Irving felt that Link was already a big man who had played in the league for more than ten years.

He stood there confidently, waiting to teach the younger generation a lesson. Link's whole body exuded the breath of a king.

Owen shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Link is just a third-year player, how can he be so good?

Irving made several three-threat moves after holding the ball. From this move, Kobe, who was watching the fun, frowned.

He found that this kid Owen was not joking, he really wanted to fight!

The next second, Owen suddenly started a breakthrough! Link immediately moved laterally, but as soon as he took a step, Irving used a flexible behind-the-back change to pass Link, easily entered the penalty area and made a layup.

"Oh, so pretty."

"As expected of Kelly, breaking through the clouds and flowing water."

"Haha, Link has a tough time today."

After Irving scored, the other players in the crowd immediately discussed it. On the outside of the stadium, the reporters' flashing lights did not stop.

"Link is 1-0, don't think you're playing with a high school student." Irving pointed a finger, triumphantly.

"In my opinion, you were originally a high school student." Link tilted his head, not panicking because Owen scored a goal as soon as he came up, he still looked like a boss.

On the second ball, Irving suddenly retreated when he broke through halfway, and made a shot. Link hurriedly sealed it up, but he didn't know that Owen actually accelerated again, wiped it from Link's side, and worshipped Buddha with a fake gesture!

After wiping Link, Owen scored an easy layup for the second time in a row. The training ground was full of cheers. Even professional players couldn't help but want to applaud Owen's performance.

Durant was the most positive of them all, and this guy would have liked Link to be embarrassed here.

Link put away his hippie smile, picked up the basketball, and threw it to Irving again.

When Irving received the basketball that bounced off the floor, he found that the ball was much stronger than just now. The young guard of the Cavaliers looked up, but found that Link's expression seemed to be much more serious.

Kobe nodded, that's what it's like!

"Kelly." Link called out to Owen before the third goal.

"Um?"

"I appreciate your confidence." Link said seriously.

"thanks."

"No, I'm not done. I appreciate your confidence, but at the same time I have to thank you, thank you for your $25,000."

Owen is speechless, Link's mouth cannon is so annoying. However, he believed that after this duel was over, Link would become speechless.

Just as Owen was about to break through this time, Link raised his chest and pressed it against it, giving Owen a physical confrontation and disrupting his dribbling rhythm.

Link knew very well that Owen's change of direction was indeed fast. If you let him speed up, he won't be able to catch up at all. If you want to prevent him, you must fundamentally block him!

Seeing that Link was so deadly on guard, most people except Kobe knew that Link and Owen were not joking. From the start, the goal of these two guys is to knock each other out!

Owen took a step back, his body was still a little thin compared to Link's. But it doesn't matter, Irving isn't the kind of guard who plays by brute force.

After being pushed back beyond the three-point line by Link, Irving dribbled the ball quickly with his left and right hands, looking for a rhythm. He can score in the first two rounds, and Owen believes that there will be no exceptions in the third round!

Owen stabbed to the left, but made a cross to the right on the way. Link was secretly surprised that in such a small space, this guy could actually change directions so quickly.

Owen this guy really has something!

With this wonderful cross step, Owen successfully broke through Link! He's so fast that most guards can't catch up.

But Link was not completely thrown away. He still reacted very quickly. He stuck it on almost immediately, staying by Owen's side to prevent him from laying up easily.

But Owen still relied on faster steps to surpass Link's position by a little bit, and shot a layup directly!

Ordinary people are so broken by Owen, they have been scored a long time ago. But at the moment when Owen made a layup, people saw Link rise from the ground, and the speed of the bounce was astonishing!

Owen looked up, but couldn't see anything. The entire basket was covered by Link!

So, under the condition of Owen's successful breakthrough, Link waved his hand in the air and pinned Owen's inevitable layup to the backboard!

"Bang!"

Link squeezed the basketball vigorously, causing it to collide violently with the backboard, making a loud noise. The onlookers were all grinning with exaggerated expressions. However, their various expressions are all expressing one meaning-too Nima is cruel!

Owen turned around in astonishment. He didn't expect that he could not completely shake Link. Moreover, I didn't expect that Link would actually be able to destroy the ball.

Link grabbed the basketball with one hand and slammed it directly onto Owen's chest.

"Learn, it's time for me to attack."

Last night, Rachel told Link to watch out for the ambitious Owen. Halfway through his words, Link was hugged by Rachel.

If he could finish his words, he wanted to reply to Rachel's words, "Don't worry, Irving should be careful about me."
