Mitchell is very discerning. When he saw his boss changing his playing style, he immediately changed his own playing style and went directly to Wang Yi, providing a screen for Wang Yi at any time, allowing Wang Yi to get rid of the defender and catch the ball.

This is Mitchell.

Not only is his ability to observe words and emotions off the court beyond that of an adult, but on the court, this guy's ability to observe words and emotions is also very strong.

His playing is very average, even a little bad, but as long as Wang Yi is involved, this guy will have to do his job well even if he works hard.

At this time, Wang Yi took advantage of Mitchell's cover and came out directly to the left corner.

And Xiao Qiao's passing also followed him like a shadow.

The moment Wang Yi just jumped out of the three-point line, Xiao Qiao's ball had already been passed over.

After Wang Yi received the ball, his back was facing the basket, but he didn't stop at all. He jumped directly and turned around in the air.

At this time, Knicks center Randle had already rushed over to block Wang Yi's shot.

However, after Wang Yi jumped up, he saw that Randall had jumped in front of him. He did not take action immediately, but waited in the air for a while.

After Randall pounced from his side and swung his hand over his head, he used his strong waist and abdominal strength to exert force a second time and shook his wrist to strike.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the net.

In the first 5 minutes, Wang Yi has already made 6 of 7 3-pointers.

Scored 18 points in a single quarter.

Thibodeau saw that Wang Yi could score even in this situation, so he had to shout to the players on the sidelines:

"Double-team! Double-team, there are two people following him all the time, making it impossible for him to catch the ball."

So in the next round, a strange scene appeared on the field.

After halftime, Wang Yi passed the ball to Xiao Qiao.

He ran to the inside by himself.

But even so, for Wang Yi without the ball, the Knicks still have two people who are always guarding him.

At the same time, the Knicks' third man is also ready to double-team Wang Yi at any time.

This kind of defense is even more exaggerated than when defending Curry.

When Curry is not holding the ball, he is just guarding him.

The others are ready to double-team at any time. Now that Wang Yi is not holding the ball, two people are guarding him tightly, and the others are ready to double-team at any time.

It can be seen from this that how powerful Wang Yi’s power without the ball has become?

In this way, even if Turs, Mitchell and Danny continue to provide cover for Wang Yi, it will be difficult for Wang Yi to get rid of the defense.

Starting from the 6th minute of the first quarter, it was difficult for Wang Yi to get the ball.

However, other Kings players have received a lot of opportunities.

For example, Danny got two open shots and had the opportunity to shoot a three-pointer, and no one cared about him at all.

A shooter with a three-point shooting percentage of almost 45%, no one cares when he shoots three-pointers.

This is simply unreasonable.

But now the Knicks can only do this in order to defend Wang Yi.

If you want to take care of him, then there is no way to guard against Wang Yi.

At the same time, Xiao Qiao got two open shots from mid-range, and Tours dunked inside.

Even when Mitchell received the ball from outside the three-point line, no one was guarding him.

He didn't shoot a three-pointer, but dribbled to the inside. He wanted to attract the defense and then try to see if he could pass it to the boss so that the boss could score.

But during the whole process of him going from outside the three-point line to inside, no one came to defend him, not even to interfere.

In this way, he reached the inside line and paused for a moment to look at the boss.

As a result, there were two people beside the boss.

Seeing that 24 seconds were coming, he had no choice but to dunk, and scored the two points with tears in his eyes.

Then he made an apologetic gesture to Wang Yi.

"I'm sorry, boss, I was wrong."

However, at the end of the first quarter, Mitchell still made up for his mistakes.

When the Kings were on offense, Mitchell saw that Joe was about to take action.

Moreover, Xiao Qiao made a layup under the basket, which was obviously an easy hit.

So Mitchell deliberately pretended to fall to the ground while grabbing a rebound.

In this way, when Joe scored, the Knicks didn't pay attention to Mitchell lying under the basket when they served.

As a result, when serving, Mitchell suddenly jumped up in a starting position, jumped into the air, and directly hit the ball.

It turned out that he looked like he had fallen, but in fact he was lying on the ground, which is the best position for starting.

After catching the ball, he threw it to Wang Yi who was preparing to return to defense outside the three-point line.

After Wang Yi got the ball, he did not waste Mitchellet's opportunity.

A direct three-pointer ended the attack.

At first glance, all this seemed normal, it was just Mitchell stealing the ball after falling.

This should be a lucky ball.

However, the next scene that the director played showed the truth for everyone to see.

Yang Yi burst out laughing when he saw this.

"He did it on purpose, it was definitely intentional."

Wang Meng also nodded and smiled: "Bad guy! This guy is a bad guy!"

On the barrage of Tencent's NBA live broadcast room, the audience went crazy with joy.

"Hahahaha, this old six!"

"If you ask the Knicks what to do if they encounter the sixth player, I'm afraid the Knicks can only say that they will pay attention in the next life."

"The sixth child worked really hard to get the eldest brother 65 points."

Because of Mitchell's steal and assist, Wang Yi made 7 of 8 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 21 points.

Although the Knicks' offensive efficiency is also good.

But because they spent too much energy on Wang Yi's defense in the first quarter, their defense against others was poor. In the end, the Kings scored 45 points in the first quarter.

The two sides tied at 45:33. The Kings led by 12 points.

In the past, this result was obviously unacceptable, but it didn't matter tonight.

The main thing is to limit Wang Yi's score to less than 65 points.

Through the first quarter of the game, Thibodeau has found a way to restrain Wang Yi.

That is, two people are on defense, and the others are ready to double-team at any time.

During the break at the scene, TNT's commentator Magic Johnson asked the commentator next to him, Dragon King Bosh:

"At this point in the game, the demands of both sides have become obvious. The Kings not only want to win the game, but Wang Yi also wants to score 65 points."

"As for the Knicks, they would rather lose the game than let Wang Yi score 65 points. So do you think Wang Yi can make history and score 65 points in this game?"

Dragon King Bosh stretched out his long neck, thought for a while and said:

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. With the way the Knicks are playing now, even if they let other players from the Kings get an empty layup, they won't give Wang Yi a chance to catch the ball easily."

"So it will be extremely difficult for Wang Yi to score 65 points, and it will probably be difficult for Wang Yi to achieve the feat of averaging 50 points per game."

Magic Johnson nodded.
Chapter completed!
