Section 15 Summer League
July 11, 8:30 pm
"Chris, what are your expectations for this showdown between the No. 1 pick and the No. 3 overall pick?" Since it was a conversation between Young and Russell, esn specially sent an old and young pairing of Chris Webber and Hubby Brown.
commentary partner.
"This is the first game for the No. 1 pick. We certainly want to see if he can adapt to the rhythm and penalties of the NBA."
"If it takes him a few games to adapt to a game of this level, the death knell should be ringing now." As Hubie Brown was speaking, Russell and Randle of the Lakers suddenly attacked with two beautiful dunks.
It set Lakers fans on fire.
"What's going on?" Young, who was practicing catching and shooting in the left corner, suddenly felt a group of teammates looking at him.
Not knowing the truth, he immediately raised his head and looked at the central screen above his head.
"Then let me do it!" Yang, who understood what happened, immediately picked up the two Spaldings lying on the ground.
"Hey, I didn't expect anyone besides Stephen Curry would dare to shoot like this. Has he ever shot in the center circle in college?" As Young walked towards the center circle, Hubie Brown and Chris Webber in the commentary box both
Guessed his intention.
"I have played it before. According to reliable information, I often play this way before the game in my sophomore year, but not before the game in my junior year."

"This, this, this, he actually hit it the first time." The shortcomings of the too transparent arena were revealed at this moment. The audience's exclamations almost made the TV audience unable to hear Chris Webber.
sound.
"It seems that he already knows that his touch is very good. Now he is going to start the second one." Watching Young holding the ball jogging to the player's tunnel, Hubie Brown knew that he was going to start the second one.
"It's so biased, I bet the ball won't go in."
"This ball is weirder than the position of the center circle. I'm sure he will hit it 100%."
"You two upstairs, don't you bet on something to cheer up?"
"..."
Because of his good touch, he didn't even hesitate when he reached the channel position and decisively launched his second shot.
While the basketball was still in the air, Young slowly turned around and retreated onto the court with his back turned.
After returning to the court, he did not stand uneasily, but signaled his team's request to celebrate.
"It's so embarrassing for us to celebrate before we even score a goal! What should we do!"
"It's okay to go crazy with him, but if you screw up and lose face, you'll lose a lot of money,"
"It's better to be quiet, it won't be too embarrassing."
When the fans were in the middle of the battle between heaven and man, a "swish" sound broke the weird atmosphere.
The 76ers fans reacted instantly and began to take action. Their exclamations and shouts suppressed the offensive of the Lakers fans.

As the "warm-up" ended, players from both sides came to the court
In order to cope with this game, the starting lineup sent by the 76ers is: point guard McConnell, shooting guard: A Kazmi, small forward: Akar Thompson, power forward: Young, center: Jerami Grant.
Although this lineup looks good, it is still far inferior to the Lakers' lineup composed of Russell, Jabari Brown, Anthony Brown, Randle, and Tarik Black.
Although Jerami Grant's athletic ability is outstanding, he still lost this jump ball competition.
"Retreat." Yang expected that he would not be able to jump to the ball, so he began to instruct his teammates to retreat.
"Let's see how strong you are to be number one." Randall and Young started fighting in the lower area of the free throw line in the first round.
"This little guy is really outstanding. Randall's strength and flexibility didn't even take advantage of him." Randall's several flexible positions were resolved by Yang's extraordinary efforts, which made people who have never seen Yang play a complete game.
Mr. Hubby Brown was very satisfied.
"Russell, give it to me." Randall, who had been unable to get into position for a long time, wanted to change his offensive method. He wanted to change his frame with his back.
"You are shorter than me. If you hit the frame, can you see the frame?" Young, who raised his left hand high to suppress Randall's ball handler, also very rudely damaged Randall's height.
The sequelae of Randall playing only one game in his first year showed here, and he actually thought about Young's trash talk.
Such a natural opportunity could not be missed. Taking advantage of Randall's daze, Young decisively took the ball.
"Good timing, I give this steal ten points." As Young picked up the basketball that fell on the ground before Randall, Chris Webber gave this steal a perfect score.
Facing the empty opponent's basket, Duke's instinctive Young did not dunk himself, but instead hit the ball high into the backboard...
"Jerami Grant." Facing this dunk, the DJ in the venue screamed at the top of his lungs.
The Lakers, who suffered a loss, immediately remembered the problem and shifted their offensive focus from the inside to the outside in the next round.
Back screen, lower screen, cross screen, Randall gave up the opportunity to play the leading role during the attack time, and tried his best to create opportunities for his teammates, but
With the sound of a clang, the Lakers' offense came to nothing.
The moment the bubble appeared, Yang, who was in a disadvantageous position on the rebound, quickly completed his turn and cleverly blocked Randall behind him.
You can't squeeze in, you can't go around, it's even more unrealistic to take it from the top of your head.
When all the disadvantages came together, Randall suddenly remembered that the seniors of the team had to "teach"
"beep"
"No. 30, foul on rebounding."
The Lakers' offense is unsatisfactory, and the 76ers' offense is not much better. Although McConnell is a good pick-and-roll ball handler, he can't stand his teammates who don't follow the pre-designed tactics.
"clang"
The unexpected situation didn't happen. Jakar Thompson's long-range shot was perfect, and the sequelae of long-range shots were also exposed: long rebounds.
Faced with a rebound that was like a gift from heaven, Jabari Brown would not be polite and immediately rushed towards the 76ers half court
Because he knows that he, who is on the edge of the team, needs good statistics and court performance to prove his ability to the team.
When he rushed to the free throw line and no 76ers defensive player came out to intercept him, Jabari Brown, who was quick-thinking, immediately completed the collection of the ball and soared into the air before dunking.
"It's close, it's close, it's close." Watching the ball in his hand approaching the basket step by step, he began to feel excited, and he began to imagine how the commentators and fans would brag about him.
Bragging?? If his psychological activities were known to Chris Webber, Chris Webber would definitely call him an idiot, because...
The "high-speed train" running at full speed is here.
"Bang, bang." With the two sounds of the ball hitting the ground and the man hitting the ground, the slightly frightened interim head coach of the 76ers summer league quickly requested a timeout.
"I'm fine, I'm really fine."
"If you really have something wrong, go to the team doctor for a check-up. If you feel uncomfortable, go for an MRI."
Under the very "loving" care of the interim head coach, Young's first summer league game ended with one assist, one steal and one block in two minutes. This is the report card that Young can give.
The next day, with Young promising not to do anything crazy on the court, he got a lot of playing time that night:
It's a pity that the Celtics' lineup, under Young's strong connection, was really a bit helpless. It only resisted for two and a half quarters and was completely defeated.
In such a mood of taking care of their teammates, the 76ers benefited the most from Akar Thompson and Jerami Grant.
Jakar Thompson, who only scored 9 points and 4 rebounds on 3-of-16 shooting in the last game, got rid of his halo and scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists in this game.
Jerami Grant also scored 22 points, 9 rebounds and 4 blocks under the guidance of Young.
And what about Young? He only scored 11 points, 22 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, which is very average data.
Because his performance on the court received full marks from the 76ers coaching staff and management, Young said in the following games:
Got laid off again.
Chapter completed!
