During the break of the third quarter, Vogel looked at the bearded man who was leaving the field, pondered for a moment, and then turned his head.

"Wang, you have to defend Harden in the fourth quarter."

Wang Yi nodded, his eyes full of fighting spirit:

"knew!"

The stronger the opponent, the more motivated he is to fight.

The Lakers players were not surprised that the coach asked Wang Yi to guard Harden.

Today, Wang Yi's individual defensive ability is definitely among the top three among the Lakers.

As for the offense, Vogel didn't say much.

With James on the court, Wang Yi with his abnormal shooting ability, and AD on the court, are you still worried that the offense won't work?

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, James and Wang Yi were both sitting off the court.

AD is playing with a group of substitutes.

In the fourth quarter, AD finally started to play.

At the beginning, DeAndre Jordan was attacked four times in the paint, and all four were successful!

The Nets now have Irving and Griffin on the court with a number of substitutes.

Irving hit two shots.

But at this time Griffin hit a three-pointer.

He hit two three-pointers in a row without widening the point difference.

With 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Vogel put Wang Yi and James on the court at the same time and replaced ad.

Harden and Durant of the Nets also played, and Irving took a rest.

At this time, James began to exert his strength.

When Wang Yi faced a double-team, he first hit a three-pointer and then broke through to assist Pope for a three-pointer.

Then he turned over from the free throw line and hit a jump shot.

On the Nets side, Harden gets the ball.

Wang Yi spread his legs, lowered his center of gravity, and spread his hands slightly.

The overall positioning is more towards Harden's left hand.

Because Harden is a left-handed player, it is more comfortable to go to the left.

Therefore, when players playing against Harden defend him, they usually block his left side and leave him the right side.

And when defending Harden, you must not reach out.

Otherwise, he will raise his hand to shoot from under your arm, causing you to foul every minute.

Harden dribbled forward and pressed forward.

Then began to continuously change the direction of the crotch.

Wang Yi knows:

Under normal circumstances, when Harden does this action, he is likely to step back and take a three-pointer.

Of course, after this action, Harden will sometimes make a sudden breakthrough from the right.

But considering that the point difference has just been widened to 7 points, Harden wants to chase points, so it is more likely that he will step back and make a three-pointer on this ball.

Wang Yi stepped back slightly.

Deliberately letting Harden feel that there is more room for retreat.

Sure enough, Harden was fooled.

After his crotch changed direction five times in a row, the toes of his left foot suddenly clicked.

Then take a step back.

Then use your left foot again and take a step back to the right.

The iconic double step back.

Many fans say this kind of ball is a walk.

What you say is an insult to a man who wakes up at four in the morning to memorize the rules.

When he retreated for the first time, the ball was still floating in his left hand.

Just like step 0 of a three-step layup.

Only when the player retreats for the second time does he combine the ball and retreat.

You can think of his double step back as a reverse three-step layup.

Because it is two consecutive retreats, it can open up the space instantly.

So it's hard to cover.

However, Wang Yi had already expected that Harden would retreat, so he started in advance and blocked the shot in the direction of Harden's retreat.

Because Harden didn't jump very high when he stepped back for a three-pointer.

And Wang Yi's 100 centimeter bounce is almost half that of a spring man.

Therefore, Harden could only temporarily increase the angle of his back during this shot, and at the same time, he fell backwards.

Although Wang Yi's ball did not block him, it did interfere with his shooting.

Boom!

The bearded golfer achieved the achievement of striking an iron.

James grabbed the rebound and made a long pass like a football quarterback.

Pope got the ball and dunked directly.

Nash frowned on the sidelines and wanted to call a timeout.

But it was still early, and he only had two timeouts left.

So I can only endure it for the time being.

Next round.

Harden dribbles the ball again.

He glanced at Durant outside the three-point line on the left, and then began to slowly change direction.

It seems very slow.

But at a certain moment, the direction suddenly changed dramatically and he planned to break through to the right.

Wang Yi moved sideways and blocked the way.

Harden changed the direction of his right hip and pulled the ball back.

At the same time, the rhythm slowed down again.

Seeing that Wang Yi's center of gravity was slightly to the left, he suddenly started and charged in from the right.

This rhythm is unbeatable!

It's not too much to call him a rhythm master.

Wang Yi's lateral speed is very strong, and he is not afraid of guards like Westbrook and Schroeder who rely on their speed.

But for a defender like Harden who excels with his rhythm, he really can't guard him sometimes.

But is this all?

not at all.

After Harden passed Wang Yi, he went to the basket and wanted to score points.

But at this moment, a big bird-like figure suddenly chased from behind.

It passed over his head in an instant.

Snapped!

The basketball was slapped hard by a big hand.

The ball was slapped with such force and speed, it was like a woman slapping the mistress in the face, mercilessly and inhumane.

The ball was fanned far into the audience.

The audience at the scene immediately cheered excitedly.

"Oh, King, I love you so much!"

"This man is so exciting!"

"Harden doesn't know, but Wang is very good at chasing shots in volleyball."
