Chapter 469: Shameless, Invincible(2/2)
"There is nothing to say on the defensive end, do your best. I will help you with your defense as much as possible on the court."
"If there is a rebounding opportunity, don't be humble. If there is an offensive opportunity, you can take it. As long as the opponent does not double-team you, you can take action. You have to think so. The balls other people may not be higher than your shooting percentage. Instead of scoring, it is better to score yourself."
Yi Dun was like a Lianzhu Cannon, and kept talking about his thoughts to Yi Jianlian. There were some fallacies in it, but it was generally very useful to Yi Jianlian, as long as Yi Jianlian could listen.
"What about me? Brother Dun, I have a premonition that I may get a long time tonight." Sun Yue urged from the side.
"It's even easier. Even if you shoot on the offensive end, you shouldn't be worse than Rubio and Barrea, right? These two people's shooting percentages are below 40%. If you're not as good as them, then I have nothing to say."
"As for the defensive end, even if you make a breakthrough, you will not make a shot, and use your height advantage to interfere with the opponent's shooting. If the opponent wants to break through, it will probably be a bit difficult if you want to defend, but it doesn't matter. I will be your second line of defense." Yi Dun gave Sun Yue some suggestions.
In fact, Sun Yue was following Yi Dun, and he was really following the right person. Yi Dun could help him much more than Yi Jianlian.
Sun Yue is tall and has long arms. Such a height has an advantage in defending the shooting of an opponent's backcourt player, but being tall will inevitably bring disadvantages in changing direction speed. Sun Yue's breakthroughs in defending those flexible small people will definitely not work.
However, Yi Dun can help Sun Yue completely solve this problem. Sun Yue cannot resist the breakthrough, Yi Dun can completely repair the defense.
On the offensive end, because the offensive efficiency of Rubio and Baria is too bad, there is no need to say that Sun Yue is excellent, as long as it is very similar, it is enough.
It's even easier on the organizational side. Sun Yue threw the ball into the frontcourt with his eyes closed, and he probably could get a few assists.
After listening to Yi Dun's advice, Sun Yue suddenly relaxed. He found his future direction and followed Yi Dun's advice to fight. It seemed that he could stand out.
After Yi Dun said this, both of them were nervous and were not so worried about the evening game.
...
At 8 o'clock in the evening, Minnesota's home court, Target Center Arena.
Target Center Arena is a more famous home stadium in the NBA, mainly because it can be converted into a super-large theater, which is comparable to that of the Madison Garden Arena in the Knicks in New York.
Tonight, Yidun will make his NBA debut in this theater stadium. Countless Timberwolves fans came to the scene, and even the outside of the stadium was filled with fans who could not buy tickets.
Few teams can be so popular in the preseason, and Glenn Taylor's mouth is slighted.
Since the departure of the Wolf King Garnett, the Timberwolves' football market has been getting worse every year. Even with the new Wolf King Love, it is difficult to reproduce its original glory. After all, Love is still a bit less interesting than Garnett at his peak.
And now Yi Dun is here, giving Timberwolves fans unlimited room for imagination.
Who is Yi Dun? None of the most successful athletes in the world today!
Now that Yi Dun has entered the NBA and becomes a professional player, will he show the dominance that is comparable to other sports?!
The most important thing is that Yi Dun has proved his strength in the Olympics against Dream Ten, leaving an extremely deep impression on Timberwolves fans.
Now that Yi Dun's debut is coming, they will naturally come to witness the home team's new leader's debut.
Not only are the fans popular, but various media also rushed in. This preseason game was broadcast live across the United States for the first time, with many top American sports media coming on the spot. After Yi Dun entered the court, he even saw O'Neal...
O'Neal is helpless and sad now. If possible, he will never want to see Yi Dun's face again, but things went against his wishes. After TNT learned that Yi Dun joined the Timberwolves, he decided to broadcast the game very early and sent a host to comment on the spot.
As TNT's "Flower" in the game, O'Neal and Barkley both appeared next to the court this time.
In terms of popularity, Yi Dun's debut was definitely much higher than Yao Ming's debut.
At that time, Yao Ming's debut also attracted a lot of attention in the United States, but Yao Ming was just starting out at that time, and Yi Dun was already famous, so naturally Yi Dun received more attention.
"Shake, what do you think when I saw Yi Dun for the second time?" Barkley asked O'Neal beside him with a smirk.
O'Neal knew very well about the commentary of this game. Barkley would definitely not let him go, so he simply let himself go for the sake of the show effect.
"If you were hit by Yi Dun with 40 points and 20 blocks, and you only scored 20 mistakes personally, you can feel my current mood." O'Neal said to Barkley in anger.
"Oh? 40 points, 20 blocks? 20 mistakes? When this news came out, I thought it was fake news, but I didn't expect it to be true?"
"Shake, what kind of data do you think I'll get in his debut tonight?" Barkley continued to ask with a wicked smile.
"Who knows? I know, anyway, I believe it, you said he scored 40 points and 20 blocks in the main game tonight, and I must have believed it."
Just as the two were chatting, the players on both sides had already entered the bench and the game was about to begin.
Yi Dun looked towards the bench opposite the stadium. During the afternoon meeting, Adelman specifically talked about the King's lineup. Yi Dun had some impression of the King's star Lamarcus Cousins. Adelma mentioned this name more than once.
Before Yi Dun came, the Timberwolves had a poor lineup. The King's current lineup was not much better than the Timberwolves before. Otherwise, he would not have been a brother-in-law with the Timberwolves.
Although the Timberwolves' lineup was poor, at least it was well-known. Fans could generally recognize those few young men who came out. Now the Kings' lineup is not only bad, it doesn't even have a fame. There are not many players who can be named by fans.
The 10-year No. 5 pick Cousins should be the most famous player of this Kings.
Last season, Cousins, who was only in the second grade, scored outstanding data of 18.1 points and 11 rebounds per game, and he was already a rising inside super giant.
However, this newcomer still has a lot of problems. First of all, he has a too harsh temper. No matter who he is with, he will be furious if he disagrees with.
He was fined when he was in conflict with his assistant coach during the rookie season, and was then expelled from the head coach during training. He was fined again when he made indecent gestures in the game against the Warriors, and was even removed from the starting lineup.
Anyway, the king has used all the punishment methods in the past two years and wants to sharpen Cousins' temper, but it has no effect at all. Cousins still does his own way.
It is worth mentioning that Cousins and Yao Ming actually have a relationship. Yao Ming was seriously injured before, but everyone knows that Yao Ming's career was almost over at this time, but he still had the last year of contract left.
As a result, the mosaic team was able to use Yao Ming's last-year contract to exchange for the Kings Cousins and the high-quality blue-collar Dalem Porter who averaged 8 points and 8 rebounds per game. The Kings naturally had no reason to agree...
