The King of the NBA

"beep"

The flute sounded and the game began.

"Come on." Ning Yi, Love, Martin, Rubio and others said, cheering for their teammates.

Love and Rubio nodded, and Martin patted him and said, "Don't worry, you'll be there later. Forget about the last one, you know."

"Well, thank you." Ning Yi replied.

He is still a substitute, and Adelman didn't say when he will play, but Ning Yi is very calm, just as Kelly Lane said, his progress is amazing and he matures very quickly.

"The ball." Love asked for the ball in a low position.

Rubio made a one-hit pass.

After getting the ball, Love leaned against the defender and raised the ball, the defender raised his center of gravity subconsciously. At this moment, Love turned around and slapped the ball on the floor, directly bypassing the defender. There was an unguarded basket in front of him. He hugged the ball, kicked his feet on the floor, and pulled it up. A dunk.

With a bang, the enthusiasm of the fans was ignited.

"Love."

In the auditorium, the fans shouted excitedly.

At this time, three minutes had been played in the first quarter, and the Timberwolves led the Bucks 8:4.

Love turned back to defend, and the Bucks launched a counterattack.

The starters for the Bucks today are center John Henson, power forward Larry Sanders, small forward Caron Butler, shooting guard OJ-Mayo, and point guard Nate Waters.

Waters advanced with the ball, and after reaching the front court, he made a pick-and-roll with his teammates, but instead of attacking the basket, he made a breakthrough, and then gave it to the outside again. Several other players interspersed and ran, and finally Butler ended the offense. , a half-stop.

This time the Bucks' overall tactics were very beautiful, which attracted the applause of the Bucks fans, but Ning Yi's attention was not on the court, but on the Bucks' bench.

Among the few players sitting on the Bucks bench now, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, who will carry the banner of the Bucks in the future, and Khris Middleton, one of them is the 15th in the first round of this year. pick, one was the 9th pick in the second round last year.

Perhaps only Ning Yi knows that these two will become the top players of the Bucks in the future, and they are also recognized by the outside world as the second most underestimated players.

"Antetokounmpo, Brother Antetokounmpo." Ning Yi looked at Antetokounmpo and couldn't help but sigh. Now who would have expected that this tall and thin young man would become an NBA player in a few years? One of the super players.

Of course, I am afraid that even Antetokounmpo himself may not have thought of this.

This year, Antetokounmpo played 77 games, but averaged only 6.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game. Although he entered the rookie second team, the statistics were not very impressive.

However, this year's NBA draft surprised people. First of all, Anthony Bennett was the top pick in parallel imports, and then looking at the few picks in front of him, only one Oladipo made a result.

A few years later, people went back and re-ranked the players in the 2013 NBA draft. Antetokounmpo will undoubtedly be ranked first.

Of course, before that, no one knew that Antetokounmpo would become a super player in the NBA, just like no one knew that Anthony Bennett would become a super parallel importer.

Going back a year, there are also many underrated players with low draft picks but not low future achievements, such as Khris Middleton who is sitting next to Antetokounmpo on the Bucks bench now. This brother will average 20 points per game in the future, but he was only the 9th pick in the second round in 2012, which is seriously underestimated.

In addition to Khris Middleton in 2012, Drummond Green, the fifth pick in the second round, one of the future Warriors' Big Four, was also underestimated in 2012.

In fact, there are quite a few rookies in the 12-year and 13-year lineups of the two sides, Antetokounmpo, Middleton, Dion, Ning Yi, Shabatz, Howmel, John Henson, Nate Water Adams, these are the rookies of the past two years.

Looking at Antetokounmpo and Middleton, Ning Yi's heart agitated. Antetokounmpo and Middleton can bloom brilliantly in a few years, why can't he? Regardless of the origin of the hero, time will prove everything. All the ridicule and ridicule will turn into wonder and praise when you stand at the peak.

After a few minutes in the first quarter, both sides made substitutions one after another.

The Bucks replaced Antetokounmpo and Brandon Knight; the Timberwolves replaced Cunningham and Dieng.

Although Cunningham was beaten up against Gay, Adelman didn't blame him and gave him enough opportunities. When Brewer came down, he was sent up.

Maybe it was because he was too excited. Although Cunningham played very aggressively after he went up, his hand feeling was obviously not good. His two consecutive shots all ended in iron strikes, and he only made a bumpy goal on the third shot.

However, in the next few minutes, Cunningham had nothing to gain. Instead, he made an extra mistake and was directly intercepted by the opponent, completing a quick counterattack.

Then Adelman changed people again, replacing Love, Martin, and Rubio one after another, and replaced them with substitute players to exercise.

It wasn't until there were only two minutes left in the first quarter that Adelman looked at Ning Yi and said, "Ning, get ready and replace Cunningham."

"Yes." Ning Yi stood up and replied loudly.

At this time, the players on the Timberwolves field became Dion, Turiaf, Ning Yi, Mbah a Moute, and Barea. There was 1 minute and 53 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

"Ning is up."

"Ning Yi is on the stage."

In the auditorium, some fans were pleasantly surprised and finally saw Ning Yi playing.

There are also some fans who don't take it seriously. Ning Yi's poor performance in the last game is still fresh in his memory. After all, it was just yesterday. It's only been a day. They don't believe that Ning Yi can make any changes.

"attack!"

The Timberwolves attacked, and Barea advanced with the ball. After reaching the front court, he gave the ball to Mbah a Moute, and then gestured to Ning Yi and the three of them to move and play according to the tactics.

Ning Yi started, rushed to the inner line, and circled the bottom line.

Dion mentioned going up the line and doing a pick-and-roll for Mbah a Moute. Barea went to the three-point line in the right corner. Turiaf was on the inside and made a screen for Ning Yi to block the defender.

In this way, although the ball is in the hands of Mbah a Moute, Ning Yi and Barea are also potential threats. Mbah a Moute can hit it by himself, and if he can't, he can split the ball, either for Ning Yi or Barea.

In fact, Mbah a Moute really had no chance to make a shot, so he could only choose to distribute the ball. He wanted to distribute it to Barea, but a figure flashed in front of him, and Middleton, who had just come up, was between him and Barea.

"It can only be passed to Ning." Ba Mote secretly said in his heart, passing the ball to Ning Yi.

In fact, Ba Mote doesn't trust Ning Yi very much. Ning Yi's performance in the last game was too bad, and he was still a rookie. It's hard to believe that he can adjust so quickly and get back to his state.

In the auditorium, people subconsciously looked at Ning Yi.

"call."

The ball started, Ning Yi took a deep breath, then jumped up, feeling calm in his heart.

At this moment, he felt that time seemed to slow down, everything around him had disappeared, and the whole space became empty, only he and the basket, he looked straight at the basket, and flicked his wrist: "Go!"

next moment.

With a bang, the ball went into the net hollow, lifting the net, like a wave, white and dazzling.

"Go in!"

"nice shot!"

In the auditorium, the fans shouted and cheered for Ning Yi.

On the sidelines, Terry Porter smiled, and Adelman nodded slightly. Ning Yi, who shot accurately, is back again!
