Wang Yi's assist also set the tone for the first two quarters.
The defensive strategy adopted by the Lakers is five-pack-one.
When Wang Yi holds the ball on the outside, he does not double-team, but once he enters the three-point line, he is basically double-teamed by five people.
Wang Yi did not force the shot. Although he has the ability to shoot from outside the three-point line, his teammates will have more opportunities when faced with a five-man double-team.
So he passed it to Bond, and Bond dunked;
He passed to Danny Jr., who made a layup;
Pass to Danny, Danny makes a three-pointer;
Passed to Tours, who dunked.
Throughout the first quarter, except for the first 4 minutes when Wang Yi kept dunking on his own, the rest of the time was spent playing ball for his teammates, who scored very easily with almost no one to defend them.
On the Lakers side, Arthur Wang's scoring ability is really strong. He seemed to have made up his mind today to score as fast as Wang Yi.
So even when faced with double or even triple teams from the Kings, he still forced his way into the paint, either drawing fouls or scoring layups.
At the end of the first quarter, Arthur Wang scored 15 points in a single quarter.
Wang Yi only had 8 points, but he had 8 more assists in the first quarter alone.
Arthur Wang can be said to be one person against the entire Kings team.
The Kings led the Lakers by four points, 32:28, in a single quarter.
In the second quarter, the opposing Lakers team changed their defensive strategy. They no longer blindly double-teamed Wang Yi.
They know that Wang Yi has good passing vision. Once double-teamed, Wang Yi will pass the ball out.
The rest of the Kings were in good shape today, and they could basically score as long as they were open, so they removed a few double-teamers.
When Wang Yi got the ball from the outside, only Arthur Wang was left staring at him.
When Wang Yiwang reaches the three-point line, at most the thick eyebrows and Gordon on the inside can defend him.
As a result, the scoring of the rest of the Kings dropped, and Wang Yi always encountered a lot of obstacles in the paint, and his scoring efficiency was not high.
Although he would also cause fouls to the opponent, Wang Yi held back his play in the first two quarters and did not fully exert his strength.
At the same time, under the interference of thick eyebrows in the paint and Gordon's four long arms, Wang Yi only scored 8 points in the second quarter.
But at the same time, the Kings also strengthened their defense inside.
Turs and Bond were on the inside at the same time.
I would rather let the Lakers shoot three-pointers than give Arthur Wang a chance to get inside.
You must know that Arthur Wang's playing style is similar to that of James, and what he fears most is the tall center on the opponent's inside.
Bond, the Kings' big man, is 2.16 meters tall.
There was some restraint for Arthur Wang, coupled with Wang Yi's entanglement with Arthur Wang, and Tours' assistance to Bond, Arthur Wang was not having an easy time in this section.
As long as he reaches the inside, he will be blocked or fouled.
So he only scored 10 points in this quarter.
At halftime, Arthur Wang scored 25 points, while Wang Yi only scored 16 points.
This made everyone in the audience very excited.
"King Arthur, kick that old king's ass!"
"There is only one king in this alliance, and that is King Arthur!"
At the same time, the audience on the sidelines also played a sign with a cartoon on it.
In the cartoon, Wang Yi fell to the ground, his crown had broken into two parts, and he looked up at the people in front of him in horror.
And the man in front of him is King Arthur.
King Arthur was wearing a crown and holding a giant sword pointed at Wang Yi's throat.
The on-site director showed the cartoon to the camera for a long time, which also gave the audience a huge morale boost.
When King Arthur came off the field, he glanced at Wang Yi:
"Now tell me, who is the real king?"
Wang Yi sneered: "If you ask this again in an hour, I will give you a clear answer."
Wang Arthur shook his shoulders arrogantly.
He was full of ridicule towards Wang Yi: "Who said, hit me every time you see me?"
Wang Yi just shook his head lightly: "Just watch the second half."
Then both parties entered the locker room.
The commentary on the sidelines was still beeping at this time.
"Both Arthur and Wang Yi's offense in the second quarter was not very good today, but Arthur was obviously better. He caused a total of 5 fouls on the Kings' two insiders in a single quarter. So the two Kings' insiders are likely to be in trouble in the second half.
You're going to get into foul trouble."
"Yes, Arthur was better in the first half. He scored 25 points, while Wang Yi only scored 16 points. Putting aside assists, Arthur's performance was obviously better than Wang Yi's.
of."
This kind of logic that ignores Wang Yi's 12 assists in the half is obviously a hooliganism.
At this time, Jenny Buss, who was in the box on the fourth floor, was secretly pleased.
Although he made a stupid mistake in trading Wang Yi, he later selected Arthur.
Arthur's ability is no worse than Wang Yi's, and Wang Yi's salary this year is as high as 100 million US dollars. Other bosses can afford this 100 million US dollars, but the Lakers cannot afford it.
Therefore, to acquire a superstar with similar strength to Wang Yi at a lower price is definitely a good deal.
In a dark corner of the stadium, general manager Pelinka watched Wang Yi and Arthur Wang enter the tunnel.
He was thinking about what would happen if Wang Yi stayed with the current Lakers.
He knew that in the opinion of owner Jenny Buss, keeping Wang Yi was definitely no better than signing Arthur, but he knew that Jenny Buss had overlooked many things.
For example, the huge Chinese market behind Wang Yi.
For example, it is said that there is a Nicole family behind Wang Yi, and the Nicole family is a very mysterious and powerful family.
If we can establish a relationship with that family, then the Bass family will not worry about development.
Thinking of this, Pelinka sighed secretly.
I thought to myself: This woman is short-sighted.
…
In the blink of an eye, the third quarter of the game began.
When Wang Yi came on stage, Wang Yi looked at him with disdain in his eyes.
"Chinese, now that the second half is here, let me see what you are capable of."
Wang Yi shook his head lightly.
"You'll see soon enough."
The first attack of the second half was made by Arthur.
With the help of the cover of his thick eyebrows, he got rid of Wang Yi and entered the inside line.
Finally, he carried Bond and forced a layup.
Not only did it cause Bond a foul, but he also scored an extra penalty.
After scoring the goal, he did not look at Bond. In his opinion, Bond was no match for him at all. He turned to look at Wang Yi.
As if relaxing, he shook his shoulders.
"How about it?"
As a result, Bond has committed 4 fouls.
This is a bit nervous for the Kings' inside line.
At this moment, Wang Yi looked at Arthur Wang, who was shaking his shoulders arrogantly towards him, with a wicked smile on his lips.
"You know, you made a mistake."
