Chapter 266 Record

Iman Shumpert is the first-round pick of this year. He is extremely athletic, and his specialty is defense. At critical moments, the Knicks will always send him to guard against the opponent's sharp knife.It's just that the offensive ability is seriously insufficient, otherwise he would have already been the starter.

No, just as Yang Ke crossed the center line, Shumpert directly stuck to it.The two stood facing each other, leaving a gap of less than ten centimeters, and both sides could even see the pores on the other's face clearly.

Shumpert's body occupies most of the sight, which seriously affects Yang Ke's reading of the situation on the field.Faced with this situation, Yang Ke subconsciously took a step back, hoping to expand his field of vision.

However, the visual range had only expanded for less than a second, and Yang Ke discovered that Shumpert's unattractive body had expanded by one point.

Um?
Feeling the unusual defensive treatment, Yang Ke frowned immediately, and temporarily put away his thoughts of observing his teammates, and then stepped forward to test Shumpert's defensive attitude.

After several attempts, Yang Ke found that Shumpert had made the most of his close defense. He followed when he retreated, and he retreated when he advanced. In short, the distance between him and him will never exceed ten centimeters.

What a tough guy!

Yang Ke curled his lips. At this moment, he misses JR Smith a little bit. Although that guy's defense is not flawed, compared with Shumpert, his defensive attitude is very different.

Yang Ke then turned his head and looked not far to the right. He saw Mills who was a little flustered under Davis' strict deadlock, and immediately thought about it.

Obviously, in this case, blindly waiting for an opportunity is not a good choice.

Yang Ke knew that he had to take the initiative, just like Ginobili in the past, to try to break the deadlock, but first he had to get rid of Shumpert.

Close to the defense without the ball, you can get rid of it.It is nothing more than relying on body or speed, using feints and counter-running to throw the defender away.

Of course, if you want to get rid of the defense through feints and counter-runs, you need not only skilled skills, but also excellent acting skills, so that you can deceive your opponent.

Looking at Shumpert who was waiting solemnly, Yang Ke relaxed his body as much as possible, and asked with a smile: "Iman, is it too stressful to play in the Knicks?"

Although Shumpert is a rookie, his experience in the college league told him that now is not the time to be distracted, so he ignored Yang Ke's inquiry.

Yang Ke didn't care too much, and said to himself: "New York is a big city! Playing here..."

squeak!
Before he finished speaking, Yang Ke suddenly started, and the soles of his shoes rubbed against the floor violently, and he immediately made a posture of running to the left.

Shumpert, who had been tense for a long time, followed directly without even thinking about it.

After successfully inducing Shumpert's defensive movement, Yang Ke quickly ran in the opposite direction and along the three-point line, and immediately got rid of Shumpert's defense.

Under normal circumstances, after a teammate counter-runs out of the open space, a qualified point guard will pass the ball.

However, Yang Ke just observed that Mills was miserably restricted by Davis' close defense, so he realized that Mills could not pass the ball in time.

Therefore, in order to avoid being posted by Shumpert again, and to create better opportunities, Yang Ke ran to Mills without stopping.Mills, who noticed Yang Ke's movement, quickly turned around, put Davis behind him with his back, and then passed the ball to Yang Ke.

With his right arm stretched out, Yang Ke easily caught the ball.Then he stopped suddenly, adjusted his gestures, and then made a three-pointer before Shumpert caught up, and made a steady hit.

"What a beautiful three-pointer!"

Smith shook his head and sighed, "Facing a player like Yang Ke, when he has the touch, you can't let him have a little room to shoot!"

Barkley nodded and analyzed seriously: "Yang Ke is very flexible and fast. It is very difficult for a single defense to block him. So I think the Knicks should consider double-teaming him in advance and not letting him catch the ball. !"

There was a prompt from the director in the earphones. Smith held down the earphones with his hands, and after listening carefully, he announced it through the microphone: "I just got accurate information. After hitting this three-pointer, Yang Ke tied Stephen. - Curry's rookie single-season record 2009 10-pointers made in 166-[-]."

The offense and defense were switched, and it was the Knicks' turn to attack. They did not find a wrong position to play this round.Davis controlled the ball, dribbled a few times, and leaned on Mills to make a cut. After attracting the defense, he passed the ball to Chandler, who directly made a dunk.

"Yang, wait."

Yang Ke lifted his collar, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and was about to trot forward when Dio stopped him.

Dio lowered his head and whispered: "When you are being defended closely later, you can come to the low post, and Splitter and I can cover for you!"

"I'll give it a try!"

Yang Ke nodded when he heard the words. What Dior wanted to talk about was a common off-ball screen, and the technical term is down screen.It usually means that the offensive side makes a screen in the low post facing the basket, and the screened person uses the screen to get rid of the defender to get a shot.

This type of off-ball screen is uncomplicated and creates good cutting space to benefit the offense.In addition, when facing close defense, this method saves more energy than counter-running and fake moves, which is a test of the cooperation and tacit understanding between players.

Then ran to the frontcourt, Yang Ke did not stop outside the three-point line this time, but went directly to the low position on the left, and Shumpert followed him closely.

In view of the pressure in the last round, Mills chose to stop at a big step beyond the three-point line, bent over, slapped the basketball in a rhythmic manner, and confronted Davis from a distance.

Seeing that Yang Ke had settled down, Splitter at the basket led Chandler towards him, while Dior pulled Anthony out of the paint.

it has started!

Squinting his eyes, Yang Ke lowered his center of gravity and walked slowly towards Split. Then when he saw Split stop and stand still, Yang Ke suddenly accelerated and rushed to him and stopped suddenly, giving Shumpert a illusion.

Paying attention to Shumpert's reaction, Yang Ke suddenly accelerated again, cutting Splitter with his body, using his cover to circle an arc and go out.

And Shumpert, who was following the defense, started a bit slowly, and was blocked by Splitter's body, so he had to make a half-circle.With the addition of the two, Shumpert was directly thrown away by Yang Ke.

After running to the 45-degree three-point line on the right and settling down, Yang Ke took the initiative to reach out for the ball, and then without stopping, he pulled it up and shot, and the basketball went directly into the net.

The point difference was narrowed to single digits in a blink of an eye. Seeing that the substitution was not effective, Woodson's face was gloomy, and he quickly called another timeout.
