One Guard

Chapter 572: Whose dunk?

It was when Yiyang went to the training gym the next morning that he saw the video of Griffin making nonsense on the talk show last night. Because Yiyang rarely watches entertainment programs, American talk shows are not his cup of tea. Therefore, Yiyang was completely unaware of Griffin's show.

But the segment in the show where Griffin provoked the Mavericks and Yiyang has been separately cut out and spread wildly on the Internet by fans. And that video has become a topic that everyone is talking about today.

"Is Blake Griffin arrogant? No, judging from his performance in the last three games, this 2009 No. 1 pick has the capital to be arrogant! The backbone of the Mavericks' interior defense is Rudy Gobert, a first-year rookie. How can a player stop an All-Star starter?" - "Los Angeles Sports"

"The Los Angeles Clippers will break the curse of Dallas! This season, we will not lose in Dallas!" - "California Basketball"

"I haven't made any response to Griffin's remarks so far. Why? Because he can only bully amateur golfers like Alfred, the "New King of California". Facing the real King of Los Angeles, He must be hiding in a corner and shivering now!" - "Los Angeles Business Journal"

Griffin's confidence seems to have infected many local Los Angeles media. They are very optimistic about the Clippers' trip this time. It seems that if Griffin says he can score 30 or 40 points, he will definitely be able to score 30 or 40 points.

Mavericks fans are very angry about such things. On major basketball forums on the Internet, the scolding war between Mavericks fans and Clippers fans started early.

And what about Yiyang, the person involved? After seeing the video of Griffin provoking him last night on Gobert's phone, Yiyang only came out with a few words.

"Blake that idiot."

This is Yiyang's evaluation of the whole thing. No matter how arrogant Griffin is, there is no emotion on Yiyang's face.

In Yiyang's view, Griffin would lose his worth by doing this. What is the true style of a general? Just look at Chris Paul. Would Paul be yelling like this before the game? No, because Chris is the real "steward" of the Clippers. And Griffin, he is just a "sailor" responsible for shouting.

"Blake said he was going to blow up the inside, do you believe it?" After Yiyang finished speaking, he looked at Gobert.

"He looks very strong." Although Gobert is a confident young man, this time facing Griffin who was flying and escaping, the French center seemed a little afraid. After all, too many star centers in this league have been humiliated by Griffin's dunks, and Gobert doesn't want to be the next one.

"What's the use of being strong? 90% of the people in this league are stronger than me, but are they necessarily stronger than me? Hey, do you know what is Griffin's most striking characteristic?"

Gobert looked at Yiyang and shook his head in confusion.

"His arms are as short as Tyrannosaurus rex!" Yiyang looked at the tall and long-armed "Big French Spider" and smiled evilly.

※※※

At 7:30 in the evening, the outside of the American Airlines Center Arena was already crowded. Fans and reporters mingled together, causing traffic in several streets near the arena to be semi-paralyzed again.

The Clippers team bus arrived at the arena an hour ago. Griffin was wearing a suit and sunglasses today, as if he was on vacation in Dallas.

When reporters asked Griffin why you are so confident about this game, Griffin smiled disdainfully.

"The Los Angeles Clippers this season are different from before!"

Indeed, the progress of the Los Angeles Clippers this season is obvious to everyone. After experiencing the first two unsuccessful seasons, this year, the connection between Chris Paul and Griffin has become more tacit, and Griffin has also developed a mid-range shot. Now he is no longer the one who takes the shot. The "White Monster" who only knows how to dunk the ball.

In addition, the amazing growth of DeAndre Jordan, a second-round pick in 2008, has also helped the Clippers have greater horsepower.

Last season, Jordan was just an inconspicuous blue-collar center. But this season, he has evolved into a "senior" blue-collar player.

Jordan is always able to control the penalty area with his strong body and terrifying athletic ability. With him, the Clippers don't have to worry about interior defense and rebounding.

In addition, the re-evolution of Jamal Crawford and the addition of Matt Barnes, a devilish small forward, will undoubtedly bring the Clippers' strength to a higher level.

So far this season, the Clippers' record is 22 wins and 11 losses, although it is not comparable to the Mavericks, who have only lost 4 games. But in the Western Conference, this is also one of the best records.

In the past three seasons, whenever the Clippers met the Mavericks, they would not get any good results. Especially in the shortened season of 1112, Griffin was always haunted by the experience of being swept by the Mavericks in the playoffs.

But this year, Griffin guarantees it. The Dallas Clippers' suppression ends here!

Half an hour before the game started, most of the players were already warming up on the court, and the entire American Airlines Center Arena became noisy.

Before the game, the ESPN reporter came to Yiyang and asked him what he thought of Griffin provoking him.

Faced with this question, Yiyang just waved his hand, turned and left without saying anything.

Clippers fans who were watching the game live in Los Angeles burst into laughter. Is that guy Yiyang too scared to face this problem head-on?

In fact, Yiyang was not afraid, but he felt that it was useless to say anything more half an hour before the start of the game. What do I think? After the game starts later, you will know what I think!

"Boy, are you ready to send the Clippers back home?" Before the game started, Yiyang deliberately approached Gobert.

Gobert stared at the two muscular men, Griffin and Jordan. If it had been in the past, he would have been extremely scared. But now that Yiyang is here, Gobert is not afraid of anything!

"Let them come as they please." Gobert reached out and touched Yiyang lightly with his fist, then walked off the court.

Today, Carlisle still has to use Dalembert as a fake starter. Therefore, Gobert must return to the bench before the game starts.

But the French are not in a hurry, no one can take away their own game.

When the referee signaled the starting players of both teams to get ready at their designated positions, the cheers in the American Airlines Center reached their first climax.

Griffin shook his head and shook his arms, looking relaxed and at ease. What about Paul? Before the game even started, Paul's eyes were already fixed on Yiyang. I really don’t know if Griffin is too confident or if Paul is too cautious.

As soon as the whistle blew, this focus battle, which had already caused countless scoldings outside the game, finally started! Facing DeAndre Jordan, who has outstanding jumping ability, Dalembert had no chance to touch the basketball. Jordan pushed hard and put the ball firmly into Paul's hands. Paul gestured leisurely through halftime, and the game began!

As soon as he came up, Paul called Griffin to pick and roll for him. Since Griffin still poses some threat in the mid-range, Nowitzki doesn't dare to let him go easily.

Seeing Nowitzki follow, Paul was overjoyed. He used the pick-and-roll to break through. At the same time, Griffin immediately cut to the basket after the pick-and-roll last night.

When Griffin runs and plays, Nowitzki's disadvantage becomes very obvious. He had no time to turn around and could only passively follow Griffin.

At this moment, Paul suddenly threw the ball high! Griffin immediately took off and hit the basket with his left arm!

"Huh?" Griffin seemed to feel something was wrong, and at the same time, the whole audience burst into laughter.

After being stunned for a second, Griffin reacted. Just now, it seemed that he didn't catch the basketball at all, but dunked an "air". So, what about basketball?

Basketball is in Yiyang's hands!

When Yiyang saw Paul calling Griffin for a pick-and-roll, he knew that these two guys were definitely going to alley-oop! Therefore, before Paul passed the ball, he was already ready.

When Paul threw the basketball up, Yiyang took off almost at the same time, opened his arms, and broke the basketball with an almost "blocking" action!

As a result, Griffin made a conditioned dunk action, and the result was a ball of air.

After Yiyang cut off the basketball, he directly increased his speed to the highest speed and flew towards the Clippers' half. Paul did not expect that Yiyang could cut off his alley-oop pass, so his reaction was not very timely. When he turned around and chased after him, the distance between Yiyang and him was almost irreversible.

Yiyang's strength is equal to that of a thousand. Facing an unguarded basket, this No. 1 guard will not be polite.

Everyone knows that Griffin's dunks are brutal, but don't forget, Yiyang is also a well-deserved dunk king!

Yiyang jumped directly inside the free throw line and turned sideways in advance. When he soared into the air, his back was already facing the basket.

During the process of rising in the air, Yiyang spread his legs, then used both legs and hands to make a folding movement. After folding, Yiyang's body suddenly "bounced open" like a spring! With his back to the basket, he succeeded with a powerful back dunk with both hands!

"Back-up dunk! Hahaha, the first dunk show at the American Airlines Center Arena, it's not Griffin's turn yet!" Barkley opened his arms in the stands, don't you want to respond? ? This is Yiyang's response!

After dunking and landing, enjoying the fierce cheers of the fans in the audience, Yiyang pointed to the stands to thank the fans for their cheers, and then deliberately looked at Griffin. Griffin's face looked as if he had eaten shit, so uncomfortable!

Originally, Griffin wanted to use a stunning opening to establish his leadership position in this game. Unexpectedly, Yiyang, the quiet guy, stole his limelight.

This time, Griffin became even angrier. Yiyang, on the other hand, really hopes to see such a thing happen.

When Griffin lost all sense and wanted to rush into the penalty area and dunk, Yiyang stopped playing with Griffin. Because the French tower under the field will let you know how awesome it is!
