This defense was what D'Antoni wanted.
His lineup needed an outside defensive gatekeeper. He was very satisfied with this goal.
Compared to Yang Xu's previous offense, he preferred this defense.
Before this, he had looked down on Yang Xu, but after this, he was starting to take him seriously.
Yang Xu's speed and agility were much stronger than his.
Moreover, his consciousness was almost top-notch.
However, it was impossible to convince Yang Xu.
No matter what, he had played a few more years than Yang Xu, and Yang Xu was only a second-round talent.
In the next few balls, his impression of Yang Xu deepened.
Yang Xu dribbled the ball under his crotch and took a step back for a three-pointer!
Hollow hit!
Yang Xu took a big step past Monica Chan and made a European layup inside the paint.
Two points effective!
Yang Xu slipped past the baseline and got another two points from the two players 'block!
The next segment was almost all Yang Xu's performance.
Breakthrough, three points, mid-range shots, anything.
And against Yang Xu's attacks, there was nothing that he could do. He was beaten into a sieve by Yang Xu.
When he attacked Yang Xu, he had no space to shoot. Later, he even passed the ball away.
Yang Xu's performance came again!
Gallinari helped Yang Xu with a pick-and-roll from the outside. Yang Xu directly passed between the two opposing defenders.
Facing Lee and Harrington's defense, he jumped up and smashed the ball into the basket from between the two.
This shot blew up the entire stadium.
Gallinari fell to the ground." This is too brutal!”
Robison covered his eyes and opened his mouth wide.
D'Antoni had his back to the players and could not help but laugh.
The four players who were humiliated by Yang Xu's shot all had dark expressions and lowered their heads.
After all, they were the main players of the team and had been famous in this league for a long time.
Now, he was humiliated by a second-round rookie. This was too embarrassing.
The warm-up match was suspended because of this goal.
No one was in the mood to play anymore. Robison went forward and bumped into Yang Xu.
"Hey, are you a monster?"
"How could he do such an unbelievable thing? This is crazy!”
This was what Yang Xu wanted. He shrugged." No, I'm just playing normal!”
Yang Xu almost dominated the field in the following matches.
The offensive side was omnipotent, and the defensive side was everywhere.
D'Antoni saw Yang Xu's performance and was very satisfied. After the game, he even specifically talked to Yang Xu.
"Yang, you performed very well!"
"Thank you!"
"I heard from the stadium manager that you spent the entire summer here, right?”
Yang Xu tilted his head and said with a smile,"Yes, I want to be outstanding!"
D'Antoni reached out and patted him on the shoulder." Believe me, you will succeed." When the official competition begins, you must also show the same imposing manner as today!”
"I will!"
Yang Xu was very happy to get D 'Antoni's affirmation, which meant that he could get playing time.
If he couldn't compete, it was useless no matter how good he was.
In the warm-up match, no one counted individual data, only the overall score.
In the end, the substitutes, led by Yang Xu, narrowly beat the starting team 101:98.
This was something that rarely happened before.
In the league, there were only a few strange teams, such as the Spurs.
In most teams, the strength of the starter was far higher than that of the substitutes.
The Knicks were the same, but Yang Xu had beaten the starter with his substitutes.
After the match, everyone went to look at the score and found out that the substitute had won.
Yang Xu alone probably got more than half of the substitutes 'points.
"Young, you're amazing. From now on, I'm your fan!”
" Stop!" shouted Robson as he punched Yang Xu's chest.
However, other than him, the others were still unwilling to admit Yang Xu's strength.
Gallinari was one of them. He had played in the NBA for a year, and his first season was due to the issue of playing time.
His performance wasn't satisfactory. This summer was also a very hard training. He wanted to produce good results in the new season.
The starting lineup was even more unwilling to admit it.
This was too embarrassing!
Among them, the one who was the most aggrieved was Joey Chan. He was the player who was directly facing Yang Xu in this game.
It was supposed to be an old man lecturing a rookie, but in the end, both the offensive and defensive ends were beaten up by the rookie.
After the training, he was listless.
Perhaps this match had left a deep mark in his heart.
Yang Xu had performed well in this match.
His defense had also improved a little. In the previous defense, he had used speed to keep up with his opponent's footsteps.
Now, he would start to make some predictions and make reasonable use of his body.
This was the terrifying part of the strongest talent. He would grow from every competition.
Moreover, it would become stronger according to the strength of the opponent.
Yang Xu wished he could meet Kobe and LeBron James as soon as possible so that he could improve faster.
In the current league, the top three players were Kobe, James, and Wade, who were from the golden generation of 2003.
At this time, the wind of the ball was not as fast as it was later, and the data was not very explosive.
There were only a dozen players who had an average of more than 20 points per game.
But the physical confrontation was even more intense. The defense of the NBA Finals between the Los Angeles and Celtics was almost suffocating.
Every time he thought of that, Yang Xu was excited and wanted to get into the game as soon as possible.
