The fat man sitting in the middle of the bench of the denver nuggets was the center player from serbian, nikola jokic.
The 2014 second-round rookie had only made his debut in the NBA this season.
Therefore, Jokic, like Su Ran, was considered a rookie this year. Today would be Jokic's first match in his career!
"I'm not thinking about what to eat tonight, Coach.”
Jokic obediently took off his coat." I was just thinking about how to reverse the score.”
"Have you thought of it?"
"No, I haven't."
"Then think about it on the field!"
Mike Malone patted Jokic's shoulder and looked at the Timberwolves 'bench.
They were both excellent centers with potential, but Jokic's style was completely different from Su Ran's.
Su Ran relied more on his strong physical talent, abnormal athletic ability, and terrifying basketball instincts to dominate both offense and defense.
On the other hand, Jokic's athletic ability was not very outstanding. His seemingly toot figure was enough to explain the problem.
He relied more on his soft touch and his outstanding talent.
Of course, Mike Malone didn't think that Su Ran's IQ was low. On the contrary, Su Ran's IQ was also very high.
Therefore, these two centers would have a very high IQ, but a completely opposite style of dialogue!
The intermission break soon ended, and the two teams took turns to enter the arena.
The Nuggets naturally had Jokic with four substitutes.
The Forest Wolves were led by Kevin Martin, Aaron Gordon, and the old Wolf King, Kevin Garnett!
"Speaking of which, there's also a potential center on the bench for the denver nuggets!”
Seeing Jokic appear, the commentator said,""Nikola Jokic, the big player, is said to be the best passer in Serbia!”
"Although he is famous, the Nuggets are in a bad situation. Jogi? doesn't have much room to perform!”
The two commentators quickly analyzed the situation. In the second quarter, the Nuggets were the first to attack.
Jameel Nelson took the ball across the court and passed it to Jokic, who was standing outside the three-point line.
The rotation tactic of the denver nuggets was very simple, which was to let jokic attack in tandem in the middle of the court.
The rest of the Nuggets were very active. Jokic shook his wrist, and the basketball accurately fell into the hands of Randy Foye outside the three-point line.
Randy Feuille's three-pointer ran through the net!
At 21:35, the difference between the two teams shrank to 14 points!
On the Timberwolves 'side, KG's Iron Blood missed his shot. Jokic lightly jumped up to protect the backboard. Then, his hand did not stop the ball and his long pass ran through the entire game!
As the entire stadium's fans were dumbfounded, Jokic made a straight pass like a Magic Light Cannon. With precise guidance, he found Will Barton, who was attacking the front field quickly!
Barton, who was used to training on the team, skillfully put away the basketball, hit the basket, and dunked!
２３：３５！
Looking back, the Timberwolves still missed their three-pointer, and the rebound was once again taken by Jokic!
This time, what surprised the fans even more was that Jokic himself held the ball past half of the court and pushed the transition attack!
Aaron Gordon, who defended Jokic, quickly retreated to the basket to prevent Jokic from attacking the inside.
However, Jokic, who had advanced past the half-court, stopped the ball outside the three-point line, raised his hand, and decisively shot the three-point shot!
"Sou!"
The basketball drew a perfect arc in the air and pierced through the net!
The scoreboard jumped!
２６：３５！
The difference between the two teams instantly reached 9 points!
"Three points from Nikola Jokic! This amazing big guy actually shot a three-pointer!”
"Just three minutes into the second quarter, Jokic has already scored three points, two rebounded, and two assists!”
"Under Jokic's all-around performance, the second team of the denver nuggets played a wave of 7:0 points high!"
"Coach Mike Malone actually hid such a powerful character on the bench. Jokic might be the secret weapon of the denver nuggets this season!”
After the two commentators analyzed the situation, the Nuggets fans on the sidelines instantly became motivated and cheered nonstop!
The Nuggets players who were encouraged on the field increased their pressure on the defensive end. Barton seized the opportunity to attack and complete the steal!
The Nuggets quickly counterattacked. Barton did not look behind him and passed the ball to Jokic, who followed up. Jokic took a step and released the basket, scoring another two points!
"Beep!"
Seeing that the points gap had shrunk from 16 points to 7 points, the Timberwolves coach, Sam Mitchell, decisively called a time-out!
After the time-out, the old Wolf King Garnett was replaced by the Chinese giant, Su Ran, who had played the entire first quarter!
"The Forest Wolves really can't hold it in anymore. To deal with a talented center like Jogi?, we can only use the more talented center, Su Ran, to face him head-on!”
After sending out the baseline ball, Su Ran quickly went to the front field and then fell into the low position. He blocked Jokic and raised his hand to get the ball!
"Time out, come back. The Forest Wolves are going to use Su Ran to single-handedly take down Jokic in their first attack?”
"Jokic is also 2.13 meters tall, and his weight is not light either. This is not a match on the level of Lovenji or Faried!”
"Bang!"
Despite this, Kevin Martin still chose to pass the ball to Su Ran!
With the basketball in his hand, Su Ran dribbled the ball, lowered his shoulders, and exerted strength!
Jokic also increased his strength to resist. Under the force of his entire body, his seemingly fat body could not withstand it. Instead, he was pushed back by Su Ran!
One step!
Two steps!
Su Ran's forceful back-thrust made Jokic more and more surprised!
When Jokic was training in Europe and the Nuggets, no one had ever been able to hit him with such a violent push!
But now, he was facing Su Ran.
Even if Jokic resisted with all his might, it was still like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
"Bang!"
The position was deep enough. Su Ran didn't care what Jogi? was thinking. He flipped over and dunked with both hands!
The speed of his jump was so fast that Jokic could not react in time. He could only watch as Su Ran mercilessly blocked the shot!
"Beep!"
At the same time that Su Ran violently hung the frame, the referee on the sidelines blew the whistle in his hand.
Su Ran scored two points and was effective. At the same time, he caused Jokic's defensive foul and received an additional penalty!
(The seventh chapter won't be far away!)! I beg all readers to give me a lot of flowers and tickets!!）
