The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 22 [Dominate the Basket]

Ye Feng brought a woman home for the first time, Gabriela was very surprised.As soon as Ariel saw Gabriella, she was extremely cordial. She hugged Gabriella instead of shaking hands, and talked a lot with Gabriella, leaving Ye Feng, the "boyfriend", aside.Ye Feng felt chills, and began to suspect that Ariel had some evil purpose.

Ye Feng cooked Chinese food, and after tasting it, Ariel was full of praise, and deliberately smiled and asked: "Living with you must be very delicious, honey, when will I go home with you, so that I can fire the chef?" gone."

Gabriella was a little embarrassed, and explained: "Don't get me wrong, we are just roommates, and it's also the first time for me to eat his cooking."

Ye Feng observed Gabriela's expression, and he also hoped that Gabriela would show a little bit of jealousy, but unfortunately no, Gabriela and him were always lukewarm.It is said that feelings can be cultivated, and they lived together for a period of time, but they did not develop any emotions beyond friendship, which made him feel a little failed.Could it be that he has changed his body and is still a slut with no charm at all?
Ariel and Gabriela hit it off right away. They both have blonde hair and look like good sisters. They made an appointment to go to the arena to watch Ye Feng's game together tomorrow night.

When leaving, Ye Feng sent her downstairs, and Ariel explained: "If the three of us know each other well, people won't guess about our relationship, otherwise there will be vicious media calling us a love triangle. Or I have a third party with her, isn't that bad?"

Ye Feng expressed doubts. "You didn't see her, did you?"

Ariel sighed: "Oh, her eyes are so blue, I like her."

"..." Ye Feng didn't know what to say, it was a mess.

The next night, Ariel drove Gabriela to the Bank Arena. Things were more lively than expected. A group of USC students also went together to watch the Los Angeles Defenders and the Oakland Valley Vipers. the match of.

The Defenders had just changed arenas, and there were still thousands of spectators in attendance. The NBDL defense is not as tight as the NBA, and it is more prone to wonderful dunks, which will attract a lot of fans.

Ariel knew Laughlin and had no trouble getting front row tickets.After entering the arena, Ye Feng quickly saw them. Neil and his classmates even put up a sign saying "Hungry Wolf! Dunk!"

Divac's request is that dunks are not allowed, and all problems are solved by shooting.Ye Feng waved towards the stands, planning in his mind to grab more offensive rebounds. After grabbing the offensive rebounds, it would be no problem to dunk. He can't be allowed to dribble out of the three-second zone before shooting, right?
The defense team is average, but the scene is not small, music, appearance ceremony, and cheerleaders perform a lot.The atmosphere was stirred up before the show even started.

Ye Feng saw a familiar face in the opposing team, point guard CJ Watson.Watson was undrafted in the 2006 NBA Draft and played in the Italian League for a year. He returned to the United States this summer, but was still unavailable, so he entered the Development League to play.Ye Feng was very impressed with Watson. In a regular season in 2009, the Warriors beat the Jazz away.Watson scored a quasi triple-double with 38 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists in the "Devil's Away" in Salt Lake City. He beat the All-Star point guard Deron Williams and made a big upset.Later, he switched to the Bulls and became an important substitute for Rose. His offensive ability is very strong, but his defense is weak.

Before playing, Divac said to Ye Feng: "If you can't get 20+15 data in this level of competition, you are not qualified! Pay attention to the blocks of assist defense, do you hear me clearly?"

"It's very clear." Ye Feng took off his coat and walked onto the stage.

The game begins.The defenders won the ball, Ye Feng immediately stepped off and set a pick-and-roll for his teammates in the high position.The defender's point guard is named Pietnow. He also participated in the NBA draft in 2006. He was selected by the Mavericks with the 58th overall pick in the second round.He broke through with the ball, and then quickly passed the ball back to the high position. After Ye Feng received the ball, no one came up to defend him and let him go two steps away.The Vipers studied him and thought he lacked shooting ability.

Ye Feng adjusted his posture, shot the jump shot easily, and mastered the rhythm very well.He jumped high, the arc of the ball was very flat, and he smashed the ball into the inner eaves of the basket, 2 to 0.

This is also the way Divac directed the shot.Let him jump as high as possible when shooting a jump shot, and the release point should be high, and the arc of the shot should be reduced, so that the shot does not spin, the ball is very fast, and it looks like it is pushed out.This kind of shooting is not easy to pop out of the inner eaves of the basket, and McGrady likes to use this method.Another advantage is that once it does not score, it will bounce farther, and the offensive team may pick up offensive rebounds if they are not stuck.

Laughlin was also watching the game from the sidelines, sitting with the well-dressed Ariel, she asked: "Ariel, I heard that you and Ye Feng are in love?"

Ariel deliberately pretended not to know, and said with a smile, "How do you know?"

Laughlin said with a smile: "You guys are on the news. I introduced him to Nina, why did he get together with you after going to the prom?"

Ariel smiled like a fox. "I don't know either. We drank and chatted together and found that we had a lot of conversations, so we plan to date for a while and try. Will this affect his future in the Lakers?"

"Of course not." Laughlin was calm on the surface, but couldn't laugh in his heart.She felt that the Lakers made a wrong decision. If they had known that Ye Feng could practice well in mid-range shots, the Lakers should have signed a contract with him for a few more years.Kupchak was too cautious, worried about Ye Feng's development prospects and professional attitude, and only wanted to sign a basic salary, plus restricted free agents.If Ye Feng can still make progress on the offensive end in the future, the Lakers will definitely have to renew his contract with a high salary if he wants to keep him.

The Vipers counterattacked, CJ. Watson broke through with the ball, and Ye Feng made up the defense quickly.On the Defensive team, Ye Feng's defensive task is the same as that of the Lakers, mainly changing guards in the pick-and-roll.

Watson is a speed player, he didn't know enough about Ye Feng, he dribbled the ball around the defender, and immediately rushed to the basket, Ye Feng deliberately let him go, followed behind and counted the steps, Watson stepped When he was about to make a layup after two steps, Ye Feng jumped up from behind, slapped the ball hard on the backboard with a pegboard cap, and it popped out of the three-second zone.After these days of joint training, his teammates understood his ability very well, and immediately three of them made fast breaks and easily scored dunks.

The fans in the audience applauded for the ball.Ariel saw two reporters filming her, stood up and shouted towards the field: "Ye Feng! I love you!"

Ye Feng's heart thumped wildly a few times. In two lifetimes, it was the first time a woman said such words to him with such enthusiasm, and she yelled them out in front of a large crowd. If it wasn't for pretending, it was really passionate.He immediately blew a kiss back to Ariel, and Neil and the others got goosebumps all over the floor.

The Vipers are back.Power forward Damir Markota asked for the ball in the low post, and was going to rely on his height advantage of 208cm to back-hit Ye Feng.He was also a rookie in 2006. He played a few games on behalf of the Spurs, averaging 1.6 points and 0.5 rebounds per game.Ye Feng resisted Markota with his body, refusing to give an inch, his strength advantage was clearly evident.

Markota took the ball to the middle and turned around to force a jump shot.The defenders and Ye Feng trained for a few days, but neither would attack in this way, because Ye Feng bounced too fast and had long arms, which could make up for his height disadvantage.As soon as Markota threw the basketball, Ye Feng appeared above his head and slapped the ball down.The defender gets the ball and defends another play.

Two big hats in a row.The defender's coach Mark looked at Divac and said: "Divac, he seems to be more aggressive than in training, and he is playing at a super level."

Divac said with a smile: "I'm used to it. During the Lakers training, Kobe was blocked by him several times. This kid may be someone in the future."

When Divac spoke, Ye Feng had already passed halftime, and he was about to reach his position in the low post fiercely. Piterno lobbed the ball into his hands.Ye Feng caught the ball and turned around towards the baseline, one step away from Markota, and took a big step towards the basket with the ball in his right hand. Dodge the block and fly to the other side of the basket for a backhand dunk! 4 to 0.

It was a slam dunk contest-worthy goal, and several spectators screamed.Two rounds, 2 blocks, 4 points.Ye Feng smiled at Divac, indicating that this turn is too easy, and it's impossible not to dunk.Divac gave him a stop sign!

Laughlin opened her mouth wide. She had seen Ye Feng's performance in the preseason games, and now she was completely different. Before, Ye Feng was not good at dribbling, but now he can skillfully turn around quickly and dunk with the ball.Just looking at the enjoyment of playing, he already has the shadow of a star.

The Vipers attacked again. This time, they adopted an outside pick-and-roll, shooting guard Hassan Adams broke through with the ball, and Ye Feng still switched defenses.

Adams dribbled the ball to the inside, Ye Feng blocked the dribble route, he wanted to change direction and break through after dribbling the ball under his crotch, Ye Feng saw through all these fake moves.Kobe taught Ye Feng a lot of things invisibly. Compared with Kobe, who is the best at changing directions and has the most offensive methods in the league, Adams' changing directions is not worth mentioning.Ye Feng opened his arms and pressed close to Adams, not only preventing the breakthrough, but also interfering with his passing route.

Adams failed to break through and barely passed the ball. The outside players missed a three-pointer.Vipers center Robert Weir grabs the offensive rebound.He was a second-round pick in 2005, and he also wants to return to the NBA and needs performance urgently.Immediately after landing, he took a step to dunk with one hand. He was about to press the ball into the basket, but he patted the basketball from behind with one hand, destroying the dunk.After the basketball was dropped, it hit Will on the head and bounced off the baseline. The referee signaled a strike and the defender got the ball.

The person who blocked the shot was Ye Feng. After the opening, the Viper team's offense was blocked continuously, and Ye Feng used defense to dominate the basket!
