Chapter 285 Unparalleled Talent
Joel Embiid was teammates with "Canadian Jordan" Andrew Wiggins when he was in college. At first, most fans thought that Wiggins would be the boss of the team. boss.If it weren't for injuries, Embiid's pick would be higher than Tanhua.
Blake is a blue-collar center who can play for about 15 minutes. He is not in the same class as Embiid, who is enough to be selected as a No. [-] pick after a few years of learning basketball.This gap is directly reflected in the jump ball link.
Isaiah Kanan is not a qualified backup point guard, but he played a very important role in the 76ers' bad plan.Facing the defensively tough Xu Tian, it was a bit reluctant.
Robert Covington is a 3D player. He used the cover of Gerald Wallace to reach the top of the arc and directly hit a three-pointer.
George followed Covington's footsteps, forming a perfect interference.
The basketball hit the back frame and bounced into the air.
Embiid is located behind Black, but with a height of 213 cm and a stronger bounce, he successfully picked melons from the back of his head and grabbed offensive rebounds.
Black was a little bulky, unable to turn around immediately after landing, and was directly hit by Embiid behind him for a layup.
0-2!
Xu Tian received the serve, dribbled to the frontcourt easily, dribbled the ball behind his back twice, and when all eyes were on him, the grenade passed to the basket.
Nance Jr. received the ball and wiped the board with his right hand for a layup.
Embiid's defensive coverage is quite large, and he pressed the basketball on the backboard with his left hand to complete a tragic block.
Gerald Wallace was in the paint, reached for the bounced ball, and passed it to Isaiah Canaan.
Xu Tian only watched two rounds before he figured out Embiid's general defensive range and downside strength, and knew how to deal with Cheng Yaojin, who came out halfway.
Isaiah Kanan didn't dare to dribble too much in front of Xu Tian, and passed the ball to Gerald Wallace, allowing the veteran who had only recently been traded to the team to organize the offense.
Gerald Wallace is also not good at organizing offenses, but basic passing can still be easily completed.The lob was given to Embiid in the penalty area to complete the task of organizing the offense.
Embiid started playing basketball in high school. At first, he was a skinny monkey, but in just a few years he became one of the top centers in the league.His terrifying learning ability was even better than Xu Tian's.
Black defended behind him, with his right arm straightened and raised high, trying to guard against Embiid, who has recently become famous.
Embiid held the ball with his back, attracted Nance Jr. to double-team, hung Nance Jr. with his left arm, and took advantage of the opportunity to complete the shooting action.
The referee whistled and Nance Jr. fouled.
Nance Jr. hurried to the referee, spread his hands and explained, saying that he did not make any thug moves, but Embiid did it on purpose.
The referee did not refuse to communicate with Nance Jr., but still would not change the penalty and let Nance Jr. prepare to fight for rebounds.
Xu Tian stood at the top of the arc and had a friendly exchange with Isaiah Kanan.
Isaiah Kanan asked: "Your sneakers are very comfortable to wear, but they are extremely difficult to buy. Many of my friends want to get a pair. Can you help me get them?"
Xu Tian smiled and said: "No problem. After the game, you leave your contact information and I can mail you a few pairs."
The game is still going on, Embiid made two free throws!
0-4!
Xu Tian walked near the free throw line, received the serve from Nance Xiao, and slowly advanced to the frontcourt.
Robert Covington is General Ke next to the great Embiid. He is responsible for following up and defending the unstoppable Xu Tian. He lowers his center of gravity and straightens his long arms, showing a full posture.
Black mentioned the top of the arc and formed a solid screen to block Covington who was moving laterally.
Xu Tian took advantage of the dribble to break through, and faced Embiid who came out of the supplementary defense in the paint area, he switched to the back-up mode.
Embiid turned on the intensity and felt Xu Tian's strength.As soon as I tried it, I felt the extraordinary core strength and muscles as hard as iron.
Xu Tian's singles dribble with his back was extremely stable, he turned his back at will, and made a direct shot with a high toss.
Embiid jumped with his arms outstretched, failed to touch the basketball, and could only secretly pray that the shot would not go in.
The stunt at the bottom of the box, try it all!
2-4!
Xu Tian retreated to the backcourt, sank to a low position, and waited for Embiid who was about to come.
Black went to fight with Jerami Grant, who has a body but no skills in air defense.
Embiid steps down low, transitions into a post-up pattern, and stretches his right hand for the ball to Isaiah Canaan off the dribble.
Isaiah Kanan knew that the team's goal was to play badly and cultivate Embiid, so he didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, so he hit the ball and passed it.
Xu Tian lowered his center of gravity, and the standard top defense action stuck Embiid outside the penalty area.
Embiid dribbles with his back and tries to get closer to the basket, but never moves half a step.Xu Tian's feet seemed to be growing on the floor.
Xu Tian is only 201 cm tall. Compared with Embiid, his height suffers a lot.
Embiid turned around halfway to hold Xu Tian with his left hand, and held the ball with his right arm straight, with an unsolvable sky hook.
The basketball drew a very high arc and fell into the net accurately!
2-6!
Embiid started with six points in a row!
Elena Donne said: "Joel Embiid is very soft, not like a center."
Reggie Miller said: "Yes, Joel once ranked first in the mock draft before entering the draft. If it were not for injuries, he might enter the league as the No. [-] pick."
Mike Breen said: "Last summer, Xu's simulated draft picks were bullish all the way. However, he encountered a public relations crisis and was accidentally ignored by the media and the team. He almost fell out of the first round. As far as I know, almost all managers at that time Everyone at the top thinks he is the next Sun Yue, only the Rockets are willing to try."
Reggie Miller said: "I have heard this too. The NBA has never lacked players of around two meters, and Xu is the core style of play. His body is not as strong as it is now, and he has a historical level of ball quotient and learning ability. He was not discovered, but his strong personality and thin body became the main theme. At that time, almost no one could have imagined that Xu's ball feel and shooting touch could reach the level of Steve Nash. His growth rate can only be used Terrible to describe."
Using Black's cover, Xu Tian quickly rushed to the three-point line, dribbled the ball with his left hand over Jerami Grant, who has a pair of long arms, and faced Embiid's defense, directly confronting in the air.
Not long after Embiid came back, the high-intensity confrontation didn't last very long, and he couldn't hold Xu Tian at all, so he paid for a foul needlessly.
Xu Tian straightened his right arm and made a neat one-handed dunk!
BOOM!
4-6!
Mike Breen said: "Wow! Xu's dunk movement is stretched and powerful, and the finish is not sloppy. A dunk destroyed the penalty area guarded by Embiid. Xu Tian, a first-year rookie, sent a message to the repeater Embiid. Signal—'Hey! Welcome to the NBA!'”
