One Guard

Chapter 830: The strongest defensive line?

As the number one player in the league, Yiyang publicly pulled the trigger on the sidelines, which naturally made Adam Silver very angry. Since taking office, Xiao Hua has been committed to making the NBA more commercial and brand-oriented. However, these stars have continued to cause him trouble.

In the NBA, inappropriate gestures on the court are punishable. When Anthony, Pierce and others made gangster gestures to celebrate after scoring goals, they did not escape the fate of being punished. Although Yiyang's gesture was not a gang gesture, and he himself had no gang background, the "headshot" of the commentator on the spot had a very bad impact.

Therefore, less than two hours after the game ended, the league responded and issued a large fine of up to $25,000 to the super guard who easily scored 50 points in the game.

Yiyang had no objection to this. When he did this action, he never thought that he could escape punishment. But if spending $25,000 can make things bigger, then Yiyang thinks it's worth it. Maybe not many people in this league will stand up and speak for Jeremy Lin, but there will definitely be many people who will stand up and speak for themselves!

Sure enough, the day after the game, John Smith, under the pressure of public opinion, had to stand up and publicly apologize for his inappropriate remarks towards Jeremy Lin and yellow players. However, even this could not save John Smith's career.

After apologizing, he was immediately fired and will never be able to work as a commentator again. After all, accusations of racial discrimination are still quite serious in the United States.

It's okay not to be prosecuted, but once he is targeted by a respectable person like Yiyang, John will have no choice but to be lucky.

A $25,000 fine and John's lifetime ban brought the matter to an end. This incident has sounded a wake-up call to basketball commentators around the world, just as they cannot publicly insult black players during games. Asian players are not easy to mess with now. With Yiyang's presence, the few Asian players in the NBA are no longer a disadvantaged group.

"Is it worth spending 25,000 US dollars for a piece of garbage?" During the training the next day, Dirk also chatted with Yiyang about this matter without saying a word.

"Sometimes, someone has to speak up. To be honest, Dirk, $25,000 is a lot less than I thought. Let's forget about it. There is no point in tonight's game. god!"

After Yiyang finished speaking, he concentrated on training. The first back-to-back battle this season was against the Houston Rockets. This was an out-and-out tough battle! John Smith is nothing compared to the Rockets.

James Harden and Chris Paul, in the third game of the regular season, the Dallas Mavericks finally met an opponent who could truly test their strength...

※※※

While Yiyang and Dirk were chatting and shooting in the training hall, players from the Houston Rockets also arrived at the training hall from their hotel. The Rockets arrived in Dallas at noon yesterday, and they did not hesitate to prepare a day in advance for this game. Last season, Harden's single-core team was eventually eliminated by the Mavericks for the second consecutive year. With Paul joining this season, the Rockets' only goal today is revenge!

Although the Rockets have many new faces now, they still have not forgotten the humiliating moment when they were eliminated by the Mavericks last season. The Mavericks last season were Yiyang's single-core team, dragging along a group of veterans. In this way, the Rockets failed to win.

But with Paul this year, the Rockets can finally straighten their backs.

Chris Paul has been unsmiling since he stepped onto the training ground. Over the years, Harden is not the only one who has been suppressed by Yiyang? As Paul grows older, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to defeat Yiyang alone. But if we team up with Harden, maybe we can do it!

James Harden was the player who ranked third in MVP voting last season.

Second only to Westbrook, who averages a triple-double per game, and Yiyang, who leads the team with a single core. Under D'Antoni, Harden can be said to have completed his transformation. If Harden, who only scored by drawing fouls, was just a superstar in the past, then Harden last season has begun to move closer to the ranks of superstars.

Harden can score and organize. After D'Antoni put him at the No. 1 position, people seemed to see a dark-skinned and bearded Yiyang!

Last season, Harden averaged 29.1 points and 11.2 assists per game. This is a very typical "Yi Yang" data.

After completing the transformation, the Rockets and Harden have emerged from the shadow of the failure of the "Demon Combination". With the great Chris Paul joining this season, the Rockets' goal is the championship!

In the Western Conference, if they want to win the championship, there are two hurdles that the Rockets must overcome. One is the Warriors with an invincible lineup, and the other is the Dallas Mavericks with the "genuine" Yiyang!

The Mavericks are eager to wrestle with the Rockets, and the Rockets are also eager to defeat the Mavericks. Everyone is on standby and is bound to overturn the entire American Airlines Center Arena!

An hour before the game started, players from both sides went out to warm up. Paul took the initiative to walk to the midfield, as if he wanted to communicate with Yiyang. Yiyang walked over, only to find that Mitchell ran towards Paul before him.

"Chris, how are you doing with the Rockets!?" Mitchell hugged Paul excitedly, making Yiyang a little envious.

The relationship between himself and Mudiay had been tense before, but they had never reunited like this on the court. The same relationship, why is the gap so big? Maybe I am really not a good teacher or role model...

"I'm fine, Donovan. You did a good job too, kid. You played very well in these two games. I can see that you have improved a lot. You didn't practice less during the past summer, right?" Paul He patted Mitchell happily, "Good boy, this guy is as strong as a bull."

"Well, I trained with Yi for a whole summer, and I benefited a lot!"

"Yeah?" Paul's eyes crossed Mitchell's shoulder and finally fell on Yiyang, who was approaching him.

It's really good to leave this guy Mitchell to Yiyang.

"You have to be mentally prepared today. My bearded friend is usually not very friendly to strangers." Paul and Mitchell joked.

"I'm going to give it my all, Chris, even if it's you and James Harden."

"Very good, I appreciate your courage. Now, go and warm up. I need to talk to your boss."

The "boss" in Paul's words is naturally Yiyang.

Mitchell ran back excitedly and prepared for the game seriously. Looking at the energetic defender No. 45, Yiyang and Paul were extremely happy in their eyes.

"I just said how could there be such a magical kid in this world? He turned out to be a product of your training camp." Yiyang looked at Paul. The original "Queen Bee" was also known as a baby face. What now? He is really old.

"I already regret it, too. I shouldn't have given Mitchell to you in the first place. I must admit, I didn't expect him to improve so quickly! What did you give that kid? Fertilizer? Now, we must You are facing a powerful enemy that I personally created and gave to you."

"It's too late to regret, Chris. And it's not my fault. I went after you in the first place. Your relationship with James is better than I thought. I won't give you face in this game." Yang's expression turned serious, and Paul knew the joke time was over.

"You give me face? Man, you may not understand your situation. In today's game, we will be the final winners! James and I didn't intend to give you face! Do you think that with that guy Deron, you can still Do you want to contain me? Times have changed, and the combination of you and that guy Williams will be vulnerable to me and James!" Paul pointed at Deron Williams, his once biggest enemy. But now, Paul can fool Deron with only half his power.

What if Deron defends Harden? That's a pity, he will die an even more ugly death!

"Look at it Chris, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. See you on the field." After saying this, Yiyang was about to turn around and leave, but seemed to suddenly remember something and straightened his body back up.

"By the way, I almost forgot to say, congratulations on finally getting rid of the Los Angeles Clippers."

Paul looked very surprised when he heard this. But the look of surprise only flashed past, and Paul quickly returned to his smile.

"At least on this point, we have the same view." Paul and Yiyang bumped fists lightly, then turned around at the same time, getting farther and farther away from each other.

Another war between great point guards, this game will definitely not go by calmly.

An hour later, Yiyang and Paul stood behind their own center, waiting for the result of the fight for the ball. At this time, both of their faces were expressionless, and the friendliness just now was completely gone.

Paul is gearing up. How long has it been since he experienced the feeling of defeating Yiyang? Today, he and Harden must break Yiyang's dominance on the back line!

The referee blew the whistle, and the "hard and black" Capela won the first offensive ball for the Rockets with a slight advantage of one fingertip.

Yiyang shook his head. Back then, Capela was just a rookie who replaced Howard in garbage time. His order of appearance is even behind Joey Dorsey's "European World of Warcraft". But now, he is already the most popular center in the league.

As Paul said, all things have passed away.

The basketball was in Paul's hands, and Deron Williams stepped forward with open arms. Paul didn't panic and called a screen. Ryan Anderson raised the high position and Paul immediately started!

Although they are similar in age, Deron and Paul are in completely different physical states. Paul is still as fast as lightning, but Deron's lateral movement is no longer neat.

Deron, who was once known for "beating Paul while eating and sleeping", is now one step away from Paul.

Yiyang cannot help defend, he must keep an eye on Harden all the time. If this bearded guy gets a chance, he will only suffer the consequences.

After Paul broke through, Hayward came to cover. Paul did not hesitate. He turned his wrist while staring at Harden on the right side of the court, but passed the ball to Ariza who was stationed in the left corner.

Ariza received the basketball and took the shot calmly when faced with an open opportunity. An open three-pointer from the corner is Ariza's favorite. He didn't waste Paul's wonderful pass, the basketball hit the net hollowly, and the Rockets were aggressive as soon as they came up!

As expected, Paul showed no mercy. The strongest backcourt combination in the league had already issued a challenge to Yiyang!
