The King of the NBA

Halfway through the first quarter, Gay was replaced by substitute small forward Landry Fields.

Timberwolves here, Adelman will Love, Martin, Dion Ziqi replaced, replaced Pekovic, Turiaf, Mbah a Moute.

After this substitution, Ning Yi was against Fields.

Landry Fields is the kind of tall wing player who bounces well and can grab rebounds, but his shooting stability is not enough, and he relies more on cutting to score points.

But on the defensive end, Fields is very suitable for defending small forwards.

Looking at Fields, Ning Yi couldn't help but think of Jeremy Lin. In 12 years, Jeremy Lin suddenly broke out, setting off a wave of Linsanity, sweeping the NBA and the whole world.

In Jeremy Lin's NBA career, he has experienced many ups and downs, and the word sofa has a unique meaning in his life.

In February 2012, the night before Jeremy Lin started to explode, he was living on the sofa of Landry Fields' house, when Fields was still in the Knicks.

From that day on, Jeremy Lin started his crazy performances.

Also since then, people remember Landry - Fields. To be precise, people remember Landry - Fields sofa.

Now times have changed, Jeremy Lin went to Houston, and Fields went to Toronto.

The game continued, the Raptors attacked.

After the ball reaches the frontcourt, it is quickly transferred. Now the Raptors' lineup only has Lowry as the core, and almost all the others are substitutes.

On the court, no matter how sophisticated the tactics are, they are always played around people. If there are no players who can handle the ball, many tactics will become empty talk.

After moving the ball a few times, the Raptors failed to find a chance, and the ball returned to Lowry. Lowry bent over, made a fake breakthrough, and then directly pulled out, raising his hand for a three-pointer.

Swish!

With a crisp sound, the ball went hollow into the net.

With Lowry's three-pointer, the score became 14:13, and the Raptors led by one point.

The Timberwolves serve the baseline ball, Rubio advances with the ball, and Ning Yi quickly runs to the frontcourt. As soon as he takes a good position, Fields pounces on him, sticking very close, leaving no room for Ning Yi to shoot.

Everyone knows that Ning Yi's ultimate move is the mid-range shot. As long as he doesn't give him room to shoot, and doesn't allow him to easily hit the mid-range shot, he is not a big threat.

However, this time they were wrong.

Ning Yi started running, his footsteps swaying, like a butterfly, suddenly accelerated to the right, Fields reacted quickly, moved immediately, and took a step back.

But at this moment, Ning Yi stepped on a brake, stopped abruptly, then changed direction, bypassed Fields from the left, and rushed to the penalty area.

At this time, the Raptors were empty inside and everyone was pulled outside.

Seeing Ning Yi cut in, Rubio's eyes lit up, and he passed the ball with a hit. Ning Yi took the ball and made a light layup, scoring two more points.

It turned out to be a layup!

After a few games, everyone fell into a misunderstanding, thinking that Ning Yi can only shoot, and defending him only needs to prevent him from making mid-range shots.

But people have overlooked the fact that most good pitchers are master runners, and most master runners are good at cutting.

In the past, Ning Yi had almost no air cuts, so people automatically ignored it, even the Raptors players, and it was too late to react at this moment.

Ning played the ball very smartly, and the timing was well grasped. Adelman smiled, very satisfied with Ning Yi's performance today.

On the field, the game continues.

In the next few minutes, Ning Yi made two more air cuts. One teammate failed to pass the ball, because Rubio was replaced, and Barea came up. If it is said that the pass is clever, Barea is still not as good as Rubio.

Another time, he was interfered by the opponent's inside line. Ning Yi didn't hit hard, and scored the ball outside the three-point line in the left corner, assisting Mbah a Moute to hit a three-pointer.

At this time, there was not much time in the first quarter, and Ning Yi didn't get another chance to make a move. When the first quarter ended, he walked off the field with 6 points, 1 assist, and 1 rebound.

Ning, good job.

Good fight.

A group of Timberwolves players clapped hands with Ning Yi one after another.

Ning Yi's performance in these few games has captured many fans and has also won the approval of his teammates. Except for Shabatz and Budinger who don't like him, everyone else treats him pretty well.

Ning, you did a good job, that's how you fight. Terry Porter patted Ning Yi with a smile.

Ning Yi nodded.

Adelman also came over and said: Ning, your footwork is very good, you can make more cuts. This is also good for yourself. The more offensive methods, the harder it is for the opponent to limit you.

Yes. Ning Yi replied.

After a while, the second quarter began.

Ning Yi went up to play for more than three minutes in this quarter. When Guy was on the court, Adelman was consciously training him, letting him match up with Guy and hone himself.

For more than three minutes, Ning Yi was still at a disadvantage.

Compared with Guy, Ning Yi's strength is a lot worse after all, which cannot be made up overnight.

However, Ning Yi is improving every moment. Although there is no way to limit Guy on the defensive end, with the help of his teammates, Guy can't easily pass him. Every time Guy scores a goal, he needs to spend more Much stamina and energy.

On the offensive end, Ning Yi plays very cautiously and feels stable. If there is no opportunity, he will not shoot. Once an opportunity arises, he will resolutely shoot, even if there is interference, even if it is not advanced.

The feeling is like this, the more timid you are, the less you feel, you will not enter, the more determined you are, you will not think about anything, but you will be able to invest.

After more than three minutes, Ning Yi took two shots and hit one. In addition, there was an air cut. After getting to the basket, he received a pass from his teammate, made a reverse basket, and scored two more points.

At this time, Ning Yi had scored 10 points, plus 2 rebounds and 1 assist.

Of course, Guy also scored a lot. He has already scored 13 points, of which 9 points, either directly or indirectly, can be regarded as Ning Yi.

From the scores of the two, it can be seen that Gay has the advantage, but Ning Yi also played well, and he has improved a lot from the last match against Gay.

In a blink of an eye, halftime ended, the score was 53:50, and the Timberwolves led by 3 points.

Ning Yi walked off the stage, greeted with high-fives from his teammates and cheers from the audience.

Scoring 10 points in the half, plus 2 rebounds, 1 assist, Ning Yi's performance today is not lost to the last game against the Bucks. Those who predicted that he will be hanged against Gay, it is difficult to score 10 points The person felt hot on his face and was slapped hard. Who said that it is impossible for Ning Yi to score ten points?

It's only halftime, and they already scored 10 points!
