31:12, the Celtics were trailing by 19 points, and it seemed like they were heading for garbage time in the first quarter.
Steven paced back and forth on the sidelines, feeling very anxious.
He asked for a pause, but not only did it not close the score, but the gap was getting bigger and bigger. He frowned and thought of a plan. Finally, he pointed in the direction of Jay Brown.
"Jie Lun, you go, defend against that number 1!”
He believed that Jaylen Brown's talent on the team was the closest to Lu Yi's. He hoped that his disciple could limit the latter.
Bu Lang took off his uniform and waited for the dead ball to be replaced. He squatted in front of the technical table and looked at Lu Yi on the field. He looked calm on the surface, but he was surprised by the opponent's accurate three-pointer.
He was also a rookie this year, but he was the team's top player in the summer. He was a talented player with a high draft order. As for the other party, he was an unknown player who had played somewhere before the summer league. However, it was quite amazing that such a guy had scored 11 points in a row in just two minutes.
He wasn't sure if he could defend against that guy. The only thing he knew was that if he couldn't even restrict it, his title as the flower would be overshadowed.
During the Celtics 'offense, Thomas Jr. made room to shoot after Horford's delay and hit a three-pointer.
This was his first three-pointer of the game and his third goal of the game. He accounted for half of the team's 15 points, which showed how much trouble the Celtics 'offense had encountered.
Their hands were not smooth, their defense was not good, and their efficiency on both offense and defense was not high. What was even more worrisome was that they were scored 11 points by a rookie. They could not even defend.
Now, when he returned to the defensive end, he suddenly realized that Lu Yi actually took the initiative to reach out to Wade for the ball. A rookie who had just played and had never played in an official game actually asked for the ball from a veteran superstar on the team. This was a completely confident performance. He was very arrogant.
What surprised him even more was that Wade actually gave it to him.
At this moment, he really wanted to shout at the other party,"Hey, Dwayne, you're a superstar. How can you do this?
Especially when he saw Lu Yi catch the ball with one hand, catching Claude so hard that he jumped up. Then he moved two steps sideways and shot another three-pointer.
"Bang!"
It seemed that he didn't control the strength of the ball well and it was too short.
Even so, it still scared him and the Celtics into a cold sweat.
F@[￥!
That kid really didn't care about the ball.
Thomas returned to the offensive end and gave the ball to Horford, who turned around and made a layup.
The difference in points narrowed to 14 points.
Hoyberg didn't call for a pause. Instead, he looked at Lu Yi's figure, and no one knew what he was thinking.
He realized that the three-point strategy he had set up did not continue. After Lu Yi made his second three-pointer, his opponent, Steven, had defended against this move and had Claude follow Lu Yi closely.
Moreover, once Claude was left behind, there would always be someone who would quickly catch up. It was difficult to have the time to take action.
Now, he wanted to see how the team's superstar, Wade, would continue to score.
However, what happened next made him completely unaware of how arrogant and paranoid the rookie on his team was, because the latter asked Wade for the ball again.
This...
Did he think of himself as the core?
Hoyberg couldn't remember clearly that he had made such arrangements before. He always felt that Lu Yi was a kid with astonishing courage and fearlessness.
Wade only glanced at Lu Yi briefly, but the ball was still passed quickly. No one knew what he was thinking, but he actually let a rookie steal his ball one after another.
Immediately after, he was surprised to find that after Lu Yi took the ball, he actually chose to force Claude to break through. He even succeeded in breaking through and rushed to the free-throw line in two or three steps.
Horford and Bradley immediately went forward to double team up, but Lu Yi did not care. He squeezed between the two of them and faced the 2.06-meter Amir John, putting on a good show of a layup.
"Pa!"
There was a crisp sound. Lu Yi, who was in mid-air, grabbed the ball and sent it into the basket. John wanted to block it, but he hit his hand. However, Lu Yi's arm was still stiff as he stubbornly sent the ball into the basket.
"Swoosh!"
"Beep!"
He hit the target, and the referee made up for a foul. He whistled for John Xun's hit, 2 1.
This...
What a powerful rookie!
Wade smiled. He was stunned by Lu Yi's performance of scoring four points in a row.
Not only him, but the entire stadium was filled with thunderous cheers at this moment. Lu Yi's goal had also shocked them. At this moment, there were even people shouting his name. The atmosphere gradually rose, as if it was a critical moment.
Once again, the score was pulled beyond 15 points. After he succeeded, Lu Yi's expression was indifferent. He did not have any intention of celebrating. He coldly ran back to the front field. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
However, there were some fans who took the cold look on his face as unhappiness and anger. They all shouted angrily at the fans in the booing area,"It's all your fault. Lu is still very unhappy.”
"Yes, you guys are too disappointing. You actually chilled Lu's heart for a number. God, what if he doesn't feel happy staying here? Will he leave the Bulls?"
The fans 'faces turned pale and they felt extremely bitter.
Lu Yi had not only displayed an excellent offensive awareness and talent, but he had also repeatedly asked Wade for the ball. He was an extraordinary rookie.
They felt a sense of familiarity with this rookie. It was as if they had returned to Michael Jordan's era, when Boss Qiao was still a rookie, and he was frantically cutting points.
This was clearly a rookie with great potential, yet they had actually been booing each other.
Wasn't this forcing the other party to leave the bulls?
With those few attacks, Lu Yi was completely worthy of that jersey and that number.
(Please give me more flowers and comments. The more, the better.) Also, it's good to tip him, hehe…)
