Chapter 12
Chapter 11 : First as the first scoring point
“Lightning! Lightning! Lightning! Lightning!…” Even though the game has entered a pause, the enthusiasm of the fans has not been extinguished.
Violent tomahawk-style slashing also scored three points. This kind of wonderful shot is not common in the NCAA arena. And the one who accomplishes all this is actually an unknown Asian defender.
Yiyang’s mother also screamed crazy with the fans beside him, and he believed that his son could succeed. Now, Yiyang has proved this with practical actions.
“Good job! Good job! I know you won’t let me down!” After the players left the field, Stevens directly pulled Yiyang to his side and embraced them warmly. Yiyang is not only great in the training camp, but when he encounters a college star player like Harangodi, Yiyang can also perform well!
“He is not strong.” Unexpectedly, Yiyang was not excited about it. He just spread his hands, as if it was a matter of course to blow Harangodi!
“Well, also, you take a break for the next game. Norrid, your chance is here, I want you to go on the court and continue to maintain the suppression of Harangudi. When he is exhausted, also, I Send you on the court again. At that time, your task will not be to beat Haran Gaudi, but to open the score, okay!?” The first thing Stevens explained after the timeout was related to Yiyang. Even the core of Gordon Hayward does not have this kind of treatment.
Yiyang did not gnaw, just nodded lightly, then took the towel handed over by his teammate and wiped his face. This guy, who has lived in danger and crime since he was a child, doesn’t seem to get close to one person so easily.
But Stevens is not worried. As long as the Bulldogs continue to do this, Yiyang will be integrated into this group, and it will definitely be!
“Luke! Calm! Keep the calm you should be! You have been led by the newcomer, don’t get angry! That will only make you lose your judgment!” On the other side, the mountain team coach Tom Klin couldn’t. Don’t remind your own star, the team is already 10 points behind!
Although Indiana University has passed their most glorious period, it is still unbearable for them to be bullied by Butler University. Tom Kling needs the players to regain the rhythm of the game and regain their confidence, otherwise, the game will get more and more difficult.
“I know, Boss, I know… Just now, it was all my fault. I wanted to teach that kid too much. I won’t give him any more chances, I promise!” Luke Ha Rangodi confessed his mistake with a black face. Massacre of newcomers is something that everyone loves to do, but being massacred by newcomers is probably not a good memory.
After , Tom Klin deployed a lot of defensive tactics for the characteristics of Yiyang. He knows how to deal with this kind of guard who likes to break through. As long as they can’t get in, they will be in a mess!
Soon, the game restarted. Tom Kling sent his players confidently, hoping that they could quickly equalize the score.
No matter how powerful the Asian called Yi, he is just a rookie. Harlan Gaudi just lost to him, only because everyone knew nothing about that guy. But now, Tom Kling promises that the performance time of the No. 1 Asian defender is completely over!
However, when the Bulldogs players came back on the field, Tom Kling was dumbfounded. Matt Howard, Willie Wesley, Gordon Hayward, and Shelvin Mark are all there, but the number one rookie who has just performed well has turned into Ronald Norid!
what does that mean? This means that all the defensive arrangements made by Tom Klin just now are reduced to waste paper! Stevens didn’t let Yiyang be there at all, and those arrangements weren’t useful.
Ronald Norrid is a defender with a very different style from Yiyang. He doesn’t have as much mobility, but his shooting is even better. Tom Kling’s approach to dealing with Yiyang simply cannot be equally applied to Norrid.
Stevens looked at Tom Klin’s slumped expression, let alone how refreshed he was. After waiting for a few minutes, Harlan Gaudi came to the scene, he believed that Tom. Klin’s face would be even more ugly!
“The Bulldogs made some personnel adjustments. Coach Stevens replaced the one who had just performed well. It stands to reason that he is playing very excited now. Coach Stevens should let him continue to play. . However, the Bulldogs’ coaching team has been doing well over the past few years, and his decision must have its own merits.”
After the game, the offense of the Mountainers finally got back on track.
Harlan Gordy first hit a three-pointer from the outside, and then used a back-up singles with Norid to hit the basket and score the hook.
While the Bulldogs were on this side, Shelvin Mark and Hayward opened fire one after another. Although the Mountainers finally scored, it was the Bulldogs with stronger offensive firepower that maintained the lead.
When was off the court, Yiyang did not do nothing, but always observed the situation on the court. Stevens really appreciates what Yiyang did. Only a guard who can read the game can be called the number one!
When the first half of the game reached the fifteenth minute, Tom Kling had to replace the sweaty Harangodi. Stevens’ eyes lit up and he waved his hand. “Also, give it to me!”
“Now five minutes before the first half of the game will be over, the Mountainers are still eight points behind for the time being. The eight-point gap is not too big. If their second team players perform well, they still have a chance to reverse the situation. Yes. Huh? We saw the Bulldogs, the outstanding newcomer seems to be ready to play! God, is Coach Stevens planning to open the score in the first half of the game!?” Commentator The member shook his head in disbelief. Butler University has such courage since then.
In the past, they were solved by others in the first half. Now, they want to solve their opponents in only half of the game.
Yiyang tore off the one-time coat and reappeared. What he didn’t expect was that when he appeared on the stage, the humiliating vocabulary of “chicken fried rice” was no longer around him, but the enthusiastic shouts of the Bulldogs fans!
“Go on, buddy! Kill them!”
“Come on! Come on!”
“Can you give me your phone number!?” A girl sitting in the front row of the stands even shouted like Chong Yiyang.
Yiyang’s cold expression, not only did not get bored, but also made people feel a little cool.
After re-appeared, Yiyang’s matchup has also changed from Harlan Gordy to the mountainous backup point guard, John Harding, who is also a rookie.
The black guard is only 1.86 meters tall, and his body looks thinner than Yiyang. But Yiyang did not underestimate the enemy like Haran Gaudi, taking every opponent seriously, this is one of Yiyang’s outstanding characteristics.
Harding’s first offense was so forced that he couldn’t even complete the task of organization. Under Yiyang’s close pressure, Harding could only rush the ball with his two slender arms, and the Mountainers finally relied on luck to hit two points.
After , the Bulldogs quickly launched a counterattack. In the beginning, the Bulldogs’ number one offensive point was Hayward, and the second offensive point was Shelvin Mark. Yiyang’s role on the court is more just a passer.
And now Stevens sends Yiyang on the field, the purpose is very clear. He wants Yiyang to temporarily shoulder the responsibility of the first offensive point!
Unlike Wall and others, Yiyang is the kind of point guard who follows the “pass first” principle. He really cannot be called a scoring machine, but this does not mean that Yiyang does not have the ability to score. In high school, Yiyang was the player with the most points per game in his team. And at the beginning of the game, Yiyang’s tomahawk-style split buckle was enough to explain some problems.
Yiyang’s continuous shaking made the overly nervous Harding lose his defensive position. After the breakthrough, Yiyang did not choose to hit the basket, but suddenly stopped and shot a jumper.
Yiyang’s shooting is not stable enough, but he is not completely incapable of shooting. With almost no interference, Yiyang’s sudden stop jumper bumped into the net or crashed into the net.
The cheers in the stands were a bit louder than before. The fans did not expect that this number one guard still had such a hand.
“This kid’s tactical execution ability is really strong.” On the Bulldogs bench, Shelvin Mark smiled and communicated with coach Stevens.
When Stevens asked him to organize the offense, he did his part to create opportunities for his teammates and then pass the ball steadily. When Stevens asked him to score, he wouldn’t be soft. He scored two points as soon as he played.
“We might be able to perform miracles this season, Mark.” Stevens replied with a smile, and cast his gaze on the basketball court.
Under the strong defense of the Bulldogs, the lads of the Mountainers’ second team once again ended their offense with a shot.
Yiyang once again pushed forward with the ball. This Asian defender, who has played less than 20 minutes in the NCAA arena, has now become the object of fear for the mountainers.
Yiyang did not drag his feet. He borrowed a teammate’s pick-and-roll on the right side of the basket and drove straight in and ran towards the basket along the bottom line.
Just when Yiyang broke through to the middle distance, this guy suddenly glanced outside the three-point line, raised his hand, as if he was going to pass the ball!
“The intention is too obvious, rookie!” The opposing center guarding the basket moved a step outside, intending to intercept the pass. However, Yiyang’s pass is false, and breakthrough is the real goal!
He deceived the defender with a fake fax and walked towards the basket in two steps.
Yiyang leaped slightly, and the opponent’s fourth player who came from the defense also straightened his arms to fan the ball.
Everyone thought that Mao Yiyang could not be avoided, and Tom Kling was even ready to cheer.
However, Yiyang, who raised his hand in the air, took the basketball down. After gliding from the left side of the basket to the right side, he threw the ball up again and hit the rim with his back to the basket!
“I also used a tie rod to lay up and escaped the block easily. The Bulldogs continued to score and the point difference has become 12 points!”
“Fuck!” Tom Klin couldn’t help but yelled, what else is this yellow-skinned guy not capable of? Are you sure, this guy is not a John Wall with a changed skin color?
“Also broke through and scored! His vision is very broad, and he assisted his teammate to score again!”
“Is this going to be a layup? No, it’s a pass from behind. Everyone was cheated, including me. Another assist, it’s great!”
“The cool John Harding, he is at a loss. Although he is also a rookie, he is completely at a loss on the court. Moreover, he made a smooth breakthrough, easily layup, and scored two more points!”
“Also attracted the defense of the other two insiders in the air and stuffed the ball into the hands of his own center. Smith dunks with both hands on the spot! Beautiful! Beautiful pass, UU reading www.uukanshu.com beautiful dunk! 20 points! , The Bulldogs have widened the point difference to 20 points! Coach Stevens’s strategy worked, and he did not disappoint his coach, did not disappoint the fans, and did not disappoint everyone!”
Under the roar of the commentators and fans, the Bulldogs and Mountainers’ 20-minute game in the first half officially came to an end. The score on the court was an incredible 22 to 42. The Bulldogs playing at home are stupefied by as much as 20 points ahead of the veteran strong Mountainers! And most of the scores came from the last five minutes!
“9 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds and 2 steals. Audience friends, please allow me to officially announce. Another NCAA star point guard has been born! Yiyang, he will definitely be soaring with Butler University this season. !” After the on-site commentator finished speaking, he couldn’t help but applaud for Yiyang, who was walking towards the player channel.
The NCAA game is only divided into two halves, one half for 20 minutes. Therefore, the game time is not as long as the NBA, and the data will not be as exaggerated as the NBA.
In this situation, he scored 9 points and 5 assists in the half, which is already a very good result. You know, Yiyang only played ten minutes in the first half of the game!
The mountain team star Harlan Gaudi, who played 15 minutes, only scored 5 points and 2 assists.
“Lightning! Lightning! Lightning!…” The shouts of the fans still surrounded the stadium. Yiyang’s mother was so excited that her eyes were flushed. They love their children!
Yiyang’s crazy performance has temporarily come to an end, but the fans know that this season has just begun, and Yiyang’s basketball career has just begun.
There are more exciting things!
