The rise of basketball legends

"Hello, audience friends, the upcoming NBA regular season game between the Phoenix Suns and the Houston Rockets."

"In the past encounters between the two teams, the Suns have the upper hand. The Rockets have lost 10 of the past 8 encounters."

"One of these two teams is a fashion pioneer, who will carry out running and bombing to the end, and the other is a traditional defender, who sticks to his position and attacks. The collision between the two teams is actually a confrontation of two styles!"

"That's right, let's see what kind of performance they can bring to the fans today!"

In the CCTV studio, Zhang Weiping, Su Qun and Xu Jicheng sat side by side, making pre-match introductions.

For this Chinese derby, CCTV Sports sent a very rare lineup of three commentators.

The picture on the screen behind the three of them is a computer-generated photo of Chen Yan and Dayao, and the words on both sides of the picture are "Help Yao straight up" and "Yao is waiting".

Several people did not make pre-match predictions like before. After all, they are all teams with Chinese players, and their palms and backs are full of flesh.

In the arena, the starting players of both sides have appeared in the center of the field.

Houston Rockets: Alstom, McGrady, Battier, Hayes, Dayao

Phoenix Suns: Nash, Chen Yan, Raja Bell, Diaw, Stoudemire

A large number of Chinese fans flooded into the American West Arena for today's game!

Many Chinese fans held cards with the faces of Chen Yan and Dayao in their hands to express their support for the two Chinese players.

In the first row of the auditorium, a familiar figure to the fans appeared.

Taylor Swift held a bucket of popcorn in her hand and waited for the start of the game leisurely.

Today, Chen Yan didn't have much interaction with Taylor Swift before the opening ceremony. He is too busy tonight, and just coping with the media's photos and interviews has already made him burnt out.

Taylor Swift was a bit bored waiting alone, she ate almost half a bucket of popcorn before the game started...

A few minutes later, the noise of the fans suddenly became louder.

This much-anticipated Chinese Derby blockbuster has finally started!

Stoudemire beat Yao with a jump ball and won the first round for the Suns.

Although Dayao has an absolute advantage in height compared to other players, his disadvantages in wingspan and jumping make him basically unable to get a bargain in the jump ball. His career jump ball success rate is only in the early 40% range, which cannot be regarded as a player. Good jumper.

The sun first attack.

After landing, Nash called a singles tactic, and then passed the ball across to Chen Yan.

Nash knew the significance of the Chinese Derby to Chen Yan, and today he deliberately let him attack more.

Today the Rockets are in charge of defending Chen Yan is Sean Battier.

Battier is 203cm tall and weighs 99KG. This season, his average data is 10.1 points and 4.1 rebounds. On the offensive end, Battier has no independent offensive ability. Most of his points come from ambush in the two bottom corners The three-pointer, and the occasional empty cut layup.

He is quite accomplished on the defensive end and is what people call a 'defensive expert'.

However, in Chen Yan's opinion, his defense can only be regarded as in place, the area of ​​the assist defense is good, and he can direct the defensive positions of his teammates. The strength is average, and the defense basically depends on experience and super high basketball IQ.

Facing Battier's defense, Chen Yan grabbed the ball with one hand, and after continuous testing, he directly pulled it out!

"It's just a three-pointer, isn't it?"

In the CCTV studio, Su Qun's voice entered the net as soon as the basketball fell!

"Shh!"

3:0.

There were screams everywhere, and Chen Yan started the game for the sun!

Chen Yan shot the ball very decisively, Battier's defense was relatively conservative, he didn't expect Chen Yan to be unlucky, so he pulled it out like this.

When returning to the defensive half, Chen Yan pointed his fingers at the sky, showing great excitement!

After all, he was playing in front of more than 2 million people from all over the country. Not to mention Chen Yan, even Dayao, who has been in the NBA for 5 years, was very excited.

As soon as Alston dribbled through halftime, he frantically beckoned for the ball from the low post!

Alston stopped the ball to observe for a while and did not choose to pass it to Dayao. Stoudemire used a half-circle to defend. Alstom did not dare to pass this risky pass.

As a point guard, Alston's organizational ability is really mediocre, which directly affects Dayao's offensive efficiency. Yao Ming often fights with his opponents and gets stuck in a good position, so Alston can't pass the ball in.

In addition, Alston's autonomous offensive ability can only be regarded as an average level. As a streetball king, he can use all kinds of fancy moves to pass defenders on the street court, but those monsters with explosive physical fitness in the NBA can't will let him do it.

Alston's main scoring method in the Rockets is Yao Mai's open three-pointers after attracting double-teams, and his mindless small throws.

His career two-point shooting rate is only 38%, and his three-point shooting rate is about 34%. Let Alston be the third leader of the Rockets.

Alston missed the ball to Yao Ming and turned around and passed it to McGrady.

McGrady held the ball, and Dayao took the initiative to raise the high position.

Taking advantage of Dayao's cover, McGrady cut two steps inside and passed back without looking.

Yao Mai is connected!

The ball looked a little far away, but it was actually within Yao Ming's range.

"Shh!"

The crisp and sweet sound of entering the net sounded over the Meixi Arena!

"Good shot!"

"really not bad!"

"Hey, Dayao immediately returned one!"

In the studio, the three commentators shouted excitedly.

Under the mobilization of the commentator, the emotions of the domestic fans are also very high.

Chen Yan and Dayao scored the opening points for their respective teams, which is the perfect start for the Chinese Derby.

Dior's bottom line is fast.

The Rockets have a big man like Yao, and it is impossible for the Suns to slow down the offensive and defensive rhythm.

Nash took a step with the ball and moved in a wide range, finding Chen Yan who was two steps away from the three-point line!

At this time Dayao had just run halftime...

After receiving the ball, Chen Yan possessed his body and accelerated, first changing direction to the left and then changing direction to the right in front of his body, which was extremely smooth!

After getting rid of Battier, Chen Yan stabbed into the basket, and flew to lick the basket!

Scored two points cleanly!

5:2.

"Beautiful! He changed direction twice in a row, broke into the penalty area and made a layup!" Director Xu said.

"Battier looked a bit overwhelmed by the ball. Chen Yan's speed and change of direction were too fast. This kind of defense is not what Battier is good at." Su Qun also nodded aside.

For the Rockets, McGrady responded immediately.

Shake Raja Bell away after continuous crotch, and accelerate to the basket!

Although the white horse spear is gone, McGrady's impact is still online!

Facing Stoudemire's supplementary defense, McGrady glided for a layup and hit the board with a small lever with his left hand!

The balance between left and right hands makes it very easy for McGrady to handle this kind of ball.

The ball just fell into the net bag, and the sun's counterattack came again!

Dior's long pass from the bottom line directly found Chen Yan who ran forward ahead of time.

This kind of passing is a test of skills, because Chen Yan is still moving forward.

But this is not a problem for Dior, he is a French magician, and he is very good at passing accuracy.

After Chen Yan caught the ball from the bottom line, he didn't make extra moves. After turning around, he made a mid-range shot!

The action is coherent and chic!

However, Battier's attention was very concentrated this time, and he followed closely beside Chen Yan, pounced on him the moment he turned around and shot, and used his most famous blindfold method!

"Shh!"

Chen Yan still hits steadily!

This ball Chen Yan ignored Battier's defense!

7:4.

"Do you dare to shoot this kind of ball in a fast break?"

"Scored 7 points in a row, Chen Yan is awesome!"

"Battier has already defended the ball very well, there is no way to ask him to do more!"

"Chen Yan's hand feels so fast, his hand is hot before my TV is hot!"

"Chen Yan is a microwave player, otherwise the Suns wouldn't let him open every game!"

Domestic fans are very excited. It is a special experience to see Chen Yan's performance in the Chinese Derby. Many small fans are directly fans of Chen Yan's opening performance!
