Chapter 80 Cancer? Cornerstone?

After the timeout ended, Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan still emphasized the need to adopt a crazy tight and oppressive defensive strategy against Yass and the Sonics.

Such a defensive approach in the first half was ineffective.

But the poor effect does not mean that the method is wrong!

With so many rookies in the Seattle SuperSonics, it is necessary to make them unable to adapt to the intensity from the beginning.

Can't wait for these rookies to adapt to the intensity of the NBA game before pressing?

Yes is only 85 kilograms now, and Webster is now 100 kilograms. As long as Webster can entangle Yes, there will be no suspense about the outcome of the confrontation between the two!

It's not just the position of shooting guard. The Blazers' point guard Jarrett Jack weighs 91 kilograms, and the Supersonics point guard Rajon Rondo only weighs 75 kilograms.

The Blazers' physical confrontation in these two positions has an absolute advantage.

And these two positions are also the most important positions for the Supersonics to handle the ball outside.

As long as Ye Si and Rondo are suppressed, the Supersonic's offense will not be able to come out at all!

Heavy cavalry fights infantry, if they don't press down forcefully, do they still have to learn how to go around slowly like the Spurs?

McMillan doesn't think there's anything wrong with his tactics!

The fault is not him, but the Blazers players with insufficient defensive attitude on the court.

Since the players on the field don't work hard, turn on the hair dryer!

As a disciple of George Karl, the most enthusiastic coach in the NBA, McMillan is very familiar with this!

"In the NBA, there is nothing without confrontation, Martell, Jarrett, work hard!"

Before the game, the media all over the United States were hyping that Yes's weight had remained unchanged for thousands of years, only 85 kilograms.

With Yes' reputation in the NCAA, after he enters the NBA, he will definitely become the focus of all teams.

The intensity facing Yes is not comparable to that of ordinary rookies.

It's all like this, and I don't want to gain weight to practice confrontation, it's not courting death!

Yes' Hurricane Garfield will be extinguished in the NBA. Although McMillan doesn't want the Supersonics to sink, he deeply agrees with the public opinion in the United States!

And the task of extinguishing Hurricane Garfield started from him!

McMillan is the rebuilding head coach of the Blazers, and his prestige in the Blazers is not bad. Since he asked the Blazers to defend more aggressively, the Blazers players are not good at implementing it.

Especially in the first half of the quarter, Yes really walked them around enough, and they have to save face!

Webster is very sad now, he wants to give Ye Si a confrontation, he wants to give Ye Si a strength, but Ye Si doesn't give him a chance to use strength at all!

He wanted to catch Ye Si, but Ye Si wouldn't catch him at all!

This made the head coach next to him think that he didn't try his best to defend, and Webster felt that he was wronged!

"Yes's non-confrontation running position is too strong! Brandon, did Yes only do running training at the University of Washington before?!"

"No, even if you only do running training, it's impossible to reach such a level. How old is Yes now? And high-level competition training, you can't reach this level at all!"

Seeing the excited guessing of the Rockets teammates around him, Roy wanted to say that Yes hardly did much movement training in training.

Not as long as he's been waving a baseball bat.

"McMillan hasn't found the problem yet!"

The technique of running without confrontation will often give people the illusion that their own team's players are lazy in defense.

McMillan didn't believe Webster's defense at all.

You really have to try your best to defend, not to mention sticking to the opponent, knocking down the opponent, it is always possible, right? It's okay to grab each other with your hands, right?

What's the matter that you can't stand it like this? !

You say you are not walking, then who is!

"Webster worked hard,

But Zach Randolph is lazy, he should help Webster delay Yes! "

Little Van Gundy still sympathized with Webster.

Webster's speed, explosiveness, and agility are not as good as Yeth's. He doesn't have teammates to help him, and he doesn't seem to be as good as Yeth in terms of experience. It would be really strange if one-on-one can give Yeth strength.

It can only be said that Yes's non-confrontation running position is too strong!

Yeth doesn't know what is confrontation or not. He only knows that the thousands of games against the Pistons have taught him a lot of ways to play without using his body.

Ye Si didn't want to lose his 'weightless' state. Apart from his two talents, what he relied on most now were the attributes of speed and explosive power.

McMillan is right, in the NBA, there is nothing without confrontation.

But since confrontation is impossible for the time being, there is only one way to go to the dark.

He used the Pistons in 2004 to practice off-ball running to the god level!

It doesn't matter whether there is no confrontation or no confrontation.

Only in the face of Webster and the Blazers can he run without confrontation.

Facing Hamilton and the Pistons, every time he gets a good shot, he will be chased and bumped on the way.

The most important role of his off-ball movement is to create opportunities for him to catch the ball and jump up and shoot!

"Beautiful, Webster was deceived by Yes' fake run. Compared with Yes, Webster, who has one season of NBA experience, is the rookie who has never played in the NBA!"

66...54...51...65...

Ye Si, who was jumping in the air, unfortunately smashed the basketball in his hand towards the inside.

Even on a night with a good touch, not every take-off can achieve his ideal touch value.

"Yes, who completely had a chance, didn't shoot, jumped up and smashed the ball to Milicic inside!"

Every time Jess jumped up, it was a test of Milicic's nerves.

Generally speaking, teammates jump up and prepare to shoot, and the inside players either retreat or get stuck to grab offensive rebounds.

Only Milicic neither retreated nor got in position to grab offensive rebounds, but was ready to take over at any time.

Every time he saw that cauldron flying towards him, Milicic would worry whether someone would break it in the middle.

The heart was beating wildly.

"You can't make a mistake, you can't make a mistake!"

The jump pass in the NBA is much more difficult than in the NCAA. There are too many hands in the middle and it is too easy to make mistakes.

So Jess threw the pot at Milicic high and fast.

If it weren't for Milicic's outstanding physical talent and a period of professional training to catch the pot, even if he can catch the opponent player, he may not be able to catch it. This pass is likely to be a mistake!

"Beautiful jumping pass, Milicic dunks away Travis Outlaw who wants to steal!"

"Wonderful alley-oop! Yes is so selfless!"

Looking at Milicic with his hands hanging on the basket, McMillan on the sidelines was stunned.

Milicic was so motivated before?

"Dako, well done!"

Pretty Nima!

Do you think I want to be so pretty? !

Just because Yes passed the ball just now, it forced him to fight head-to-head with others!

Milicic came down from the basket and faced his teammates who came over to give him high fives, his face was black.

If he didn't run into others, it was his mistake!

The coach will definitely say that Yes's pass is very imaginative, and it is because of his incompetence that he cannot receive such an imaginative pass.

"After Yes started this game, he didn't dribble too much, but the Sonics passed the ball in almost every attack."

"Yes played very well against the Blazers' key defense, fully supporting the Sonics' offense!"

After the first quarter, the Sonics led 32 to 26 at home by 6 points!

"Jess' offensive pass in the first quarter was very reasonable. If Rondo hadn't wasted a lot of opportunities in the next two minutes, the difference between the two sides would have been even greater!"

Teacher Zhang Lili is not without regrets.

Ye Si's NBA debut, which is the highlight of CCTV's live broadcast.

Yees played the entire first quarter and contributed 12 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists in the whole quarter.

If Milicic hadn't left the game after 9 minutes, Rondo would have been the support point for Yes, and Yes's statistics could have been even better.

Rondo really doesn't want to play with Yes, he doesn't want to assist Yes, but Yes's running position is so good, he can't control his hands!

He didn't want to take the blame for Yes, but Yes was running out of time every time he passed the ball, and he didn't even have a second chance to throw the blame!

If it weren't for his 1-of-5 field goal percentage in the first quarter, his numbers would be perfect.

2 points and 6 assists in a single quarter is perfect for a rookie point guard!

It's all because of Yes!

He gave Yes an assist, and Yes actually responded to him with an assist!

He doesn't want to play with Yes, but he can't. According to Coach Nelson's request, he needs to hold the ball for Yes.

Yes doesn't like to handle the ball, which makes Rondo look up to him.

Generally speaking, a man of destiny like Yees likes to handle the ball.

If Yes really likes to handle the ball, he is not just a blacksmith, but a complete waste.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Supersonics performed best in the first quarter, Jess, Milicic and Rondo are now sitting on the sidelines.

The field is led by Millsap, Nick Collison, Wilkins, PJ Tucker and Barea.

Full bench.

"The Supersonic lineup is very dangerous!"

This lineup is very dangerous, full of substitutes, and there is no reliable independent offensive point!

In the first quarter, Yeth and the others established a six-point lead, but they were eroded by the Blazers in less than four minutes of the second quarter.

During the period, the old Nelson also replaced Rondo and Milicic in advance, but the trend of the supersonic collapse has not changed in the slightest.

The Supersonics, who were able to beat the Blazers in the first quarter, were like two teams without Yes in the second quarter!

When Jess reappeared, the Sonics had gone from leading by 6 points to trailing by 6 points. They lost by 12 points after only 6 minutes in the second quarter.

"Not only on the offensive end, but the impact of Yes on the defensive end is also underestimated!"

"On the offensive end, Yes is the bright light of the Sonics. As long as Yes is there, the young Sonics will know how to play. On the defensive end, Yes is the lubricant of the Sonics. He can always appear where he is needed!"

The Supersonics, which were already about to collapse, immediately stabilized the situation after Yeth played, and there was a tendency to start playing against the Blazers again.

"Where is Yes holding back the supersonic..."

Before this game, the public opinion in the United States was that Yes' willfulness dragged down the Sonics' rise again.

Yes's waywardness and not gaining weight made him a cancer for the Supersonics.

But, is this a cancer? !

This is obviously the cornerstone!

56 to 56!

At the end of halftime, Ye Si led the Sonics to tie the score tenaciously!

sharp? !

After watching half of the game, Reggie Miller can only say so!

As a rookie, he took on both offensive and defensive ends of the team in the first game.

This performance is much more amazing than the previous Roy!

"What is Yes' current halftime stat?"

"7 of 14 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the half!"

20+5+5 at halftime? !

It's true that the Blazers are weak, but the stats of Yes...

What is the rookie scoring record?

"In this game, Yes must not break 30 points!"

In the Blazers locker room, McMillan's first words were a roar.
