Under Li Yan's tandem, the Nuggets played a smooth attack with mercury spilling on the ground.
This season, the Nuggets do rank among the top in the league in points per game, but this is based on high rotation rounds and high shots.
Scoring efficiency like this is rare, not to mention that their top two scorers, Anthony "Melon" and Jr. Smith, were suspended and unable to play.
The audience was stunned, is such an attack really something our players can play? How can there be a feeling that everyone is an all-star.
Indeed, when a rough guy like Kenyon Martin can hit half a basket smoothly, "Flash" Wade can only helplessly cross his waist.
As the third quarter ended, the Nuggets overtook the Heat by two points 80-78.
The whole PepsiCo Center was boiling.
The DJ at the scene actually took the lead in shouting: "Magician, this is our magician!"
The
Nuggets' momentum at home completely overwhelmed the defending champion Heat, and the Heat head coach "God Operator" Pat Riley on the sidelines also felt evil.
The Heat's play didn't have much of a problem, Wade and O'Neal were constantly scoring points, but the Nuggets' performance was too divine.
Their shooting rate is ridiculously high, could it be that this magical Chinese kid has such magical powers.
Looking at Li Yan's figure, Pat Riley was a little in a trance, and he saw the shadow of "Magician" Johnson in Li Yan's body.
Pat Riley was the founder of the Lakers' "showtime" dynasty in the 80s, when there were countless talented players in the Lakers, and Pat Riley played offensive basketball according to the characteristics of these players and achieved great success.
The Lakers won the championship four times in 82, 85, 87 and 88, and "Magic" Johnson is the soul of this gorgeous Lakers.
Few people know "Magician" Johnson better than Pat Riley, and he and "Magician" Johnson can be described as mutually beneficial.
Now a player who looks so much like "Magic" appears in front of Pat Riley's eyes, how can he not be shocked.
The Nuggets players were elated, and they felt like they were in great shape.
Only Li Yan, who played well, looked embarrassed, he was too tired, and large drops of sweat flowed down his forehead.
It shouldn't be! Li Yan didn't think his physical strength would be so poor.
It's only a little over a quarter, even the pampered "uncles" in the CBA won't be like this.
I have always trained well.
Taking advantage of the interval break, Li Yan opened the system panel.
After some investigation, he found the reason for such physical exertion.
It turns out that the skill of making cakes is an active skill, and each release requires physical strength.
Then the damn dog system was very intimate to give Li Yankai's automatic release.
So every pass of Li Yan was frantically consuming his physical strength, resulting in a quarter of time, Li Yan felt that his body was hollowed out.
"I'm sorry, why don't you even introduce the skills clearly in your system, and you still give me the automatic release?" Li Yan cursed in his heart.
After a moment of silence, the system spoke in Li Yan's mind: "You didn't ask me, besides, isn't there a text introduction next to it?" Then I saw that you had not used skills all the time, and it felt a bit wasteful, so I turned on the automatic for you.
Now let me introduce to you, the current two skills, the cake master and the ball control master, are both active skills, after turning off the automatic release, the host can turn it on at any time according to his wishes.
"Don't you think the font of this introduction is a bit small? I didn't notice okay.
After
complaining, Li Yan felt that the system had a good attitude and didn't want to bully it anymore.
After turning off the automatic release, Li Yan began to adjust his state.
Head coach George Carr noticed that Li Yan was a little tired and asked, "Li, are you okay?"
Li Yan looked up and smiled: "Coach, I used a little too much force before, just take a break."
George Carr nodded, a 10,000-year-old substitute was suddenly reused, and excitement was inevitable, not to mention a rookie like Li Yan.
So at the beginning of the fourth quarter, George Carr sent Steve Blake, and Li Yan stayed on the bench to rest.
Pat Riley was surprised to find that the kid with a magical performance in the third quarter actually stayed off the court to rest, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Nuggets?
Most people think the same as Pat Riley, and the commentators and fans don't understand George Carr's decision.
You must know that the reason why the Nuggets were able to smooth out the difference in more than a quarter depends on Li Yan's play.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after Li Yan came on the court, the Nuggets were not only amazingly efficient on the offensive end, but also had a considerable improvement on the defensive end compared to before.
Compared with Steve Blake and Anthony Carter, Li Yan is more capable of defending alone, and he also does a good job of assisting defense, and he has been filling in for his teammates.
Now that Li Yan is pressed on the bench, do you expect Steve Blake, a "bald donkey", to limit "Flash" Wade?
The game resumed.
As expected, the Nuggets were blown up.
At the beginning, Wade used a "lost step" to shake off the Nuggets' defense and scored a strong two-plus-one.
Immediately, O'Neal also "turned the river" on the inside of the Nuggets.
On the other hand, on the Nuggets' side, they couldn't limit the Heat's two superstars on the defensive end, and they also lost their good form in the third quarter on the offensive end.
The Nuggets could only rely on Iverson's individual ability to "continue their lives", and in a wave of 12-4, the Heat took the lead again.
Wade raised his arms and roared, and the Nuggets' momentum at home was suppressed.
At
this time, the close-up on the big screen was given to Li Yan on the bench.
His eyes were resolute and he was paying close attention to the situation on the field.
Looking at Steve Blake, who was embarrassed by Wade on the court, Pepsi Center fans couldn't bear it anymore.
Why not go to Li Yan? He's the point guard in our hearts. This is the voice of countless Nuggets fans.
I don't know who took the lead in shouting: "Weneedlee!" (We need Li Yan)"
This shout ignited the entire Pepsi Center arena, and more and more fans joined it.
Then the entire Pepsi Center shouted Li Yan's name like a tsunami.
Li Yan himself was stunned, am I so charming? Are you so popular off the field?
George Carr was also a little surprised, he originally only planned to let Li Yan take a break, but he didn't expect the fans to be so eager.
"Li, get ready to play." George Karl patted Li Yan on the shoulder and said.
