Chapter 46 - End of preseason
A game of 21, a game of 25, this game is not over, Ning Yi scored another 20 points, and won 20+ in three consecutive games. Although this is only a preseason game, it still makes people feel shocked.
If this is a star player, such as Love or Martin, they do this, not many people are surprised, even in the regular season.
Ning Yi is different, he is just a rookie.
For rookies, the preseason is a trial field for the regular season, and the likes of Love and Martin are not much different from the regular season.
For this year’s rookie, some people have achieved 20+ in a single game, but so far, no one has been able to score 20+ in three consecutive games like Ning Yi.
And according to this year’s situation, I’m afraid there will be no rookie behind.
Not to mention, to be precise, Ning Yi was just a lost draft. He didn’t even make the second round, but he did what he couldn’t even do in the first three rookies of the first round.
This is the most incredible place.
“This year’s draft, huh…” Some people laughed. There are omissions in the draft every year, but this omission this year is a bit too big, right?
Some people who know it are constantly shaking their heads and laughing, not that the scout level is not enough, or that the managers of each team are idiots, but Ning Yi is too surprising and progress is too fast.
Some people knew Ning Yi before the draft and knew what level he was.
Look at Ning Yi now, they are scared, is this really the same person, this guy will not be taking drugs, right?
After the fright, some people began to regret it. They knew that they had signed Ning Yi with a second round of signing. Even if Ning Yi stopped there and stopped making progress, would it be worth it?
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
is fans, after surprise, it is a surprise, except for occasional satire of some people, it doesn’t matter so much. Anyway, this kind of thing is not uncommon. When Curry participated in the draft, the managers and coaches of each team were not optimistic about him. But look at others now?
Going back a bit, when Curry graduated from high school and participated in the Duke University training camp, he was eventually abandoned. Some other universities are not optimistic about him, thinking that he is too thin, poor shooting choices, and no future.
Only Davis College threw an olive branch to Curry, and the reward they received was that Curry averaged 21.5 points per game during his freshman year in college and won the SEC League scoring leader.
In his sophomore season, Curry averaged 32 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists per game. His performance was amazing and blinded the eyes of countless people.
So, this is not uncommon, just like the parallel champion.
“Ning, Ning…”
“Ning Yi, Ning Yi…”
In the audience, the Timberwolves fans stood up and shouted Ning Yi’s name, cheering him.
Some people are not used to it and can only call out the word “Ning”. Some people will already pronounce Ning Yi’s full name. Although the pronunciation is not so standard, people’s voices merge together to form a huge wave , Echoed throughout the arena.
“Crazy!” Coach Stevens shook his head, somewhat incredible.
Budinger, Cunningham, Williams were greasy and downcast, and with Ning Yi’s current momentum, it was almost impossible for them to come forward.
The game continues…
A few minutes later, Ning Yi shot again, but he failed to shoot in. He pressed down and stopped shooting casually. He is pursuing high efficiency and a sufficient percentage of hits. This is the foundation of his standing. If he randomly casts waves, even if he gets a high score, he may not be favored by the coach.
After another three minutes, Ning Yi found an opportunity, a counter-run to catch the ball, to make a shot, saw the defender jumped, he chuckled, and also jumped up, waist and abdomen mana, collided with the opponent, put all in The ball is thrown.
Toot!
Now!
The whistle sounds and the ball is scored.
“Oh…” People exclaimed.
This is a three-pointer, two points are valid, and a penalty will be added.
After scoring 20 points, Ning Yi is another wonderful three-pointer, which is exciting. This is about to run away. Isn’t 20 points enough?
is certainly not enough.
Ning Yi took the free-throw line, took a deep breath, his wrist flicked, and steadily hit this penalty, and scored his 23rd point in the game!
At this time, the Timberwolves had led the Celtics by as much as 17 points, with only one minute left in the game. Adelman smiled slightly and replaced Ning Yi.
“Ning, congratulations.”
“Ning, you are invincible.”
Some fans will already call Ning Yi’s full name, but the Timberwolves still like to call it “Ning” because it is so simple and kind.
A group of people gathered around to congratulate Ning Yi.
“Hehe.” Ning Yi smirked and was very excited. He had 20+ games in three consecutive games. He didn’t even think about it himself, but this happened.
More than a minute behind, there is no bright spot, very plain, the game ended like this, the Timberwolves beat the Celtics with a 15-point lead, the preseason record 4 wins and 1 loss.
After the game, the reporter interviewed Ning Yi.
The interview process was similar to the previous one. The reporter asked questions. Ning Yi talked about his feelings. The reporter also congratulated him. Ning Yi was used to it.
This game is over, and the fans’ discussion continues. Three consecutive 20+ games. Ning Yi’s madness shocked the fans. The word “Ning crazy” spreads wildly. www.mtlnovel.com~ became the next After “crazy”, nba is another phenomenon level.
……
The Celtics game ended and the Timberwolves flew to Philadelphia.
Two days later, the Timberwolves challenged the 76ers at the Wachovia Center Arena in Philadelphia.
This game Ning Yi also got the opportunity to start, but the feeling is no longer so hot, the crazy outbreak period has passed, and returned to normal.
Of course, even so, Ning Yi’s performance is still good, scoring 15 points, plus 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal.
The Timberwolves had the highest score in this game. He scored 27 points, plus 11 rebounds and 2 blocks to help the Timberwolves beat the 76ers and score another victory.
After , the Timberwolves flew nonstop and flew to Detroit, back to back against the Pistons.
Maybe it was a consecutive away game and this was a back-to-back game. The players were obviously not in the state. At the beginning of the game, the Timberwolves played iron, from Love, Martin, to Ning Yi, Rubio, Brewer, Dion… …. The Timberwolves are all up and down without exception.
It wasn’t until the second half that the Timberwolves recovered some feeling.
But the Pistons played very well today, with a very high hit rate. The Timberwolves were too big to dig in the front and could not be filled at the back. Finally, they lost the game with a disadvantage of 11 points.
This game Ning Yi is still the starter, scoring 14 points, plus 2 rebounds, 4 assists, but the shooting rate is not high, only 42%, in addition to a new personal high 4 turnovers.
However, the Timberwolves did not perform well in this game. No one scored 20, plus it was the last game of the preseason. Adelman said nothing.
