Yang Xu had scored nine points, three assists, two rebounding, and two blocked shots in four minutes.
At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks tied the score.
The commentator was not calm anymore.
"It's crazy. One person led the Knicks 'offense.”
"I've never seen such a rookie before. It's as if his entire body is emitting a kind of magic!”
"Maybe because of Yang Xu's performance, the Knicks can win again.”
At this time, James Harden, this year's flower show, had not yet appeared.
In contrast, Harden looked a little lonely.
He looked at Yang Xu with an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He was the third pick, and he was only in the second round, but he had become the focus of the match.
He could only sit below the stage.
During the draft, he remembered Yang Xu, but not because of his basketball skills.
It was because he was from Xia Country and was very young that he attracted his attention.
He did not expect his strength to be so strong. Compared to the two of them, he was actually quite inferior.
But when he saw Durant leave the field, Harden hid his unhappiness, went up to high-five, and handed him a towel.
Yang Xu's departure excited the Knicks 'bench.
As if they were receiving the most distinguished guests, they high-fived him one by one, congratulating and praising him.
"Great, Yang!"
"Well done!"
Yang Xu sat next to Robson and wiped his sweat with a towel.
He was very satisfied with his performance just now.
As long as he maintained this performance, it would be fine.
The break time was up, and the second period of the competition began.
On the Knicks 'side, the plastic surgery was done by center David Lee, power forward Harrington, small forward Gallinari, shooting guard Yang Xu, and point guard Robson.
On Thunderclap's side, it was replaced with Collison and Harden.
Yang Xu was still looking forward to his match with Harden.
The live commentator was also looking forward to this group's matchup.
"Dark horse versus Tanhua, both are shooting guards, who will win? I'm looking forward to it."
"Harden was a cold bench for a quarter. Now that he's playing, I'm afraid he'll have to adapt for a while.”
Harden came on and was very calm, as if the team's previous performance had not affected him at all.
Right now, on Thunderclap's field, only Grimm was a qualified attacker.
Harden had yet to show any super ability.
Therefore, it was relatively easy for Yang Xu to defend against Harden.
Harden lobbed the ball to Green, and then he immediately cut to the inside line. Yang Xu's attention was attracted by Green.
After missing Harden, Harden took Green's straight pass and hit the layup.
"As expected, we can't relax, Harden!”
Yang Xu, who had learned his lesson, began to get nervous about Harden's defense.
He believed in his teammates 'defensive ability and didn't go to defend unless it was a critical moment.
His teammates were also very good. Against the Thunder without Durant, they controlled the opponent's scoring percentage to be very low.
On the Knicks 'side, Yang Xu gradually became the leader.
Even though Harden's defense was very hard, Yang Xu's offense was better.
He took a step forward and stopped for a jump shot. Even though the basketball spun around the hoop a few times, it still fell into the hoop.
Holding the ball in his right hand, he pretended to break through from the right. He started to move his feet and suddenly changed to his left hand, heading Green into 2 1.
With David Lee's pick-and-roll, David Lee went down, Yang Xu hit the pass, and the latter dunked with both hands.
The climax of the game was at six and a half minutes into the second quarter. Robison broke through from the bottom corner and passed the ball to Yang Xu, who was 45 degrees away from the three-point line on the left side. The latter received the ball and started moving. There was no defender on his route.
Facing the 206cm Jeff Green, Yang Xu did not hesitate. He took two small steps inside the free throw line and suddenly jumped with both feet.
At this moment, Grimm had just turned around. Seeing Yang Xu's imposing manner, he did not choose to retreat. Instead, he wanted to jump and block.
However, it was too late. Yang Xu was like a ferocious beast, crashing into him heavily.
Grimm was knocked to the ground.
Yang Xu's body still maintained his balance as he smashed the ball into the hoop with his right hand.
Boom!
At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded. If he scored, he would have to add a penalty.
"Wow!"
Instantly, the scene became a climax.
Compared to Yang Xu's previous block shots, this slam dunk was clearly more in line with the audience's taste.
Many people stood up and waved their arms or the clothes in their hands.
They cheered and cheered for this beautiful attack.
"This shot was too domineering. I felt like I was looking at Michael Jordan!”
"Is he really just a rookie? This is crazy!"
"His physical fitness is too abnormal. I'm afraid he's a beast!”
The praises of Yang Xu were endless.
Almost everyone gave him their best praise.
Even the live commentator was no longer calm.
"I swear, this is the most beautiful goal I've seen since I started commentating.”
"Me too. If the preseason matches select the top ten goals, I want to put this goal first!”
"Never in Grimm's wildest dreams would he have thought that he, who is famous for his physical fitness, would actually be knocked down by the opponent.”
Grimm hammered the floor angrily. His teammates came to pull him up, and he was so angry that he didn't even want to get up.
He only reached out his hand when Durant came over, and Durant pulled him up.
After the ball, Thunderclap's coach hurriedly called a time-out.
This also gave Yang Xu's teammates time to celebrate.
