“Snapped.”

   There was a crisp sound, the ball was shot and fell into the back of the Timberwolves, Martin controlled the ball, then handed over to Rubio, Rubio began to advance after taking the ball.

   Timberwolves advanced attack.

   Today, the Timberwolves are still starting Pekovic, Brewer, Ning Yi, Martin, Rubio. On the Spurs side, today’s starters are Duncan, Jeff Ayers, Leonard, Green, Parker.

   The Spurs retreated quickly, and in a blink of an eye, they returned to their own half and set up their defense.

  Ning Yi came to the frontcourt, Leonard greeted him, still expressionless, just staring at Ning Yi without blinking, his eyes showing concentration.

   Rubio scored and passed to Martin…

  After several passes, the ball came to Ning Yi.

   Seeing Ning Yi take the ball, Leonard immediately stepped forward and opened his hands at the same time, making a look that he would take the ball at any time and put pressure on Ning Yi.

“It is worthy of the best defensive player in the future.” Ning Yi felt a pressure, although Leonard is only a third-year rookie today, but his defensive strength has shown one or two, at least this Defensive pressure, Ning Yi has only felt in a few players, such as Drummond Green.

   Leonard looked at Ning Yi, his hands spread out, lowering the center of gravity, his eyes were fixed on Ning Yi’s shoulders, his expression was calm, but there was still a trace of excitement in his eyes.

“Huh.” Ning Yi took a deep breath. He saw the flash of excitement in Leonard’s eyes, which made Ning Yi feel excited and bloody. “After all, you are still a young man. It may be as hearty as Pinghu. It’s better, let’s fight!”

   Next moment, Ning Yi started, the toes tapped in front of him, and then quickly retracted, at the same time the left hand shot the ball on the floor, and the speed exploded instantly.

   “Left.” Leonard judged accurately and responded quickly. Knowing that Ning Yi was breaking through to the left, he immediately retreated half a step and moved to the right to get stuck.

Ning Yi had already expected that it would be difficult to pass Leonard in one step, so after making a step to the left, Ning Yi changed direction again, the ball changed from the left hand to the right hand, the foot kicked on the floor, and issued a “cheep” A cry.

   In the auditorium, the fans were surprised. Unexpectedly, Ning Yi and Leonard were right after the game started.

   One is the most buoyant rookie this year, and the other is the Spurs’ future star. The duel between the two is exciting, all staring at the field.

  Seeing Ning Yi is another disguise, the fans exclaimed, worried for Leonard.

   But at the next moment, Leonard readjusted his footsteps and re-blocked in front of Ning Yi. He moved to the right first and left a little effort to prevent this.

“Well done.”

   “Good defense, Leonard is awesome.”

   Spurs fans shouted and cheered Leonard.

   But Leonard secretly screamed badly, because Ning Yi suddenly stopped, the original breakthrough was only an illusion, actually a retreat, and Leonard was too late to rush up at this time.

  Now!

  Ning Yi shot, very fast, a clean CIC.

  The Timberwolves went to the city first, the score was 2:0.

   In the auditorium, the Spurs fans were silent, the ball was beautiful in Leonard’s defense, and Ning Yi’s attack was also beautiful. The first attack in this game, the first time the two played against each other, was so wonderful.

   “Ning is really amazing, such a rookie is really rare.”

   “Leonard is not bad, this ball is well defended, it almost came down.”

   “I think both of them are very powerful, but the style is different. Ning is good at offense, not good at defense; Leonard is good at defense, but the offense is not gorgeous enough.”

   “What’s the use of gorgeousness?”

   “Why useless?”

   People are talking, and opinions vary.

   In fact, Ning Yi and Leonard today are really quite different. Today, Leonard has not yet grown into the absolute core of the Spurs. The score is not very prominent, but the defense has shown one or two. In addition, his style is unpretentious, so he looks more defensive.

  Ning Yi started to enter the NBA, giving the impression that he is good at attacking or not defending, even if he has improved a lot now, but many people still think so.

   So when the two are put together and compared, it looks very different.

  ……

   Spurs attack.

   Parker advanced to the frontcourt, looked at the position of his teammates, Parker scored Green.

At the same time, Leonard, Ayers, and Duncan are all moving. The Spurs have a rigorous tactical system, players cooperate with each other, and the movement is very orderly. This is clearly reflected in this attack, people move the ball After a few passes, the Timberwolves had a loophole in the defense, and Parker took the opportunity to make a midrange shot and hit it steadily.

   “Unfortunately, not Leonard singles.”

   This goal has been scored, but many fans still feel lost, but it is not surprising when you think about it. Teams like the Spurs rarely singly make a one-to-one bill. As long as it is not necessary, most of them rely on the whole. What’s more, Leonard is a young boy, and he has few mood swings. He will not be beaten like someone else, and he will return immediately.

   Timberwolves attack…

   More than two minutes passed, UU read www. uukanshu.com Both sides come and go, Ning Yi from the Timberwolves made another shot after scoring a goal, but failed to score. After the first shot, Ning Yi felt that the defensive pressure further increased, not only from Leonard, but also from the Spurs as a whole.

   Leonard’s defense is good, but the Spurs’ overall defense is better. They have formed a system. In this system, their defense will be suffocating and make the opponents struggle.

   Fortunately, everyone on the Timberwolves feels good. Martin and Brewer also scored, so after more than two minutes, the two sides scored 7:6, and the Timberwolves are still one point ahead.

   “Ball.”

   At this time, Ning Yi took the ball again.

   The figure flashed, Leonard pounced, shot like a ball, and shot at the basketball.

“It’s fast.” Ning Yi’s heart jumped, but the reaction wasn’t slow. He immediately batted the ball, then turned halfway, protected the ball firmly, and then gave a gesture to Pekovic, Pekovic came up to pick and roll Ning Yi threw away Leonard, and Duncan, who came to meet the defense, was accelerating in a change of direction.

   scored another two points.

   “Ning is another two points.”

   “This has already scored two goals.”

   People talk.

On the court, the Spurs attacked and Parker advanced to the frontcourt. As soon as he was ready to pass the ball, he saw Leonard rushing back and asked for the ball with his hand.

   “Huh?” Parker raised his eyebrows and flicked his hands over, then gestured to his teammates, “Pull away, pull him away, let him play one-on-one.”

   “Finally no longer suppressing it, are you going to have a one-on-one with me?” Ning Yi’s eyes glowed, he took a deep breath, opened his hands, and shouted, “Come on!”
