"Young's return seems to have cast magic on the 76ers. The home DJ has returned to his peak state. Even the fans who had no motivation in the previous few games have become more enthusiastic." Looking at Fuguo, which is even more lively than a few days ago,

In the Bank Center, McHale, who had just taken over as commentator, expressed his admiration.

"Although he was injured for 11 games, after leading the first 30 games, the entire 76ers team has been deeply imprinted by Young.

So 76ers fans are naturally happy and impatient to see Young return." Reggie Miller, who played the most games, gave his opinion.

With Aker and the strongest offensive weapon

Let’s take a look at the 76ers’ current situation in the East.

They are currently fifth in the Eastern Conference with 23 wins and 18 losses.

The differences before them were

With 26 wins and 12 losses, the Cavaliers are currently ranked first in the Eastern Conference.

Followed by the Toronto Raptors with 24 wins and 16 losses

Next up is the Chicago Bulls with 23 wins and 16 losses.

The fourth place in the Eastern Conference is the Indiana Pacers with 23 wins and 17 losses.

"This is the benefit of the Eastern Conference. The leading star has rested for 11 games and is still fifth in the Eastern Conference. If he were in the Western Conference, he would probably fall to ninth or tenth."

"It's not like they are ranked tenth in the Western Conference, because their opponent today is the tenth in the Western Conference with a winning rate of less than 50%: the Portland Trail Blazers."

Speaking of the Portland Trail Blazers, I really admire Lillard;

After Matthews left for Dallas, Batum was sent to Charlotte, Aldridge went to San Antonio, and Lopez went to New York, he actually managed to support a team by himself...

…………

…………

As soon as he came back, he was playing against a weak team like the Trail Blazers.

In addition, Noah Vonleh is a "rookie" who is too good to be a good player.

Young played very aggressively.

Scored a team-high 10 points in less than 7 minutes

10 points, can it show aggression?

Of course not

Aggressive performance is not the offensive end;

defensive end

Facing the pick-and-roll of the Trail Blazers' double guns

Yang, who is in position 4

Use quick and powerful double attacks to help Ishmael Smith and Moore escape the fate of being blown up by the Trail Blazers.

And gained three steals and three fast break opportunities.

1-4 pick-and-roll and 2-4 pick-and-roll don't work

After the timeout, Stotts began to try to use their center Plumlee to cover the double guns.

Stotts' calculation was simple.

Noelle's flanking attack was not as ferocious as Yang Lai's

Once he can't hold the two guns to death,

Plumlee can give full play to his role as a setter.

Can attack the frame, separate shooters, and feed alley-oops

The idea is very good, but

The 76ers can dismantle it perfectly!

Although the tallest Noelle is on the outside

But the 2.11 meter Yang

Can fully undertake the tasks of rim protector and mobile rim protector

Score shooters?

In addition to Lillard and CJ McCollum, their other two players on the court are

Aminu, the starting small forward with a 338 three-point shooting percentage

Still counting on Noah Vonleh, who has no range at all.

Isn’t there still CJ McCollum?

You underestimate Covington too much.

He can't even cut passing lanes, but he can compete with the NBA

Goodbye

Facing the situation at 6:16, Stotts requested the second timeout of the first quarter.

"Meyers, come on, replace Noah, and play the 4th position." Remembering that there was a high turret on the bench that could create space for the two guns, Stotts immediately decided to put him on the field.

"Next, let's raise the cover point to the center line!"

"Centerline?"

"Yes, if you are still flanked like this, then don't call for cover, just rush inside to the 76ers and try to get the referee to blow the whistle."

"By the way, Damian, you can hit the center line!"

Return from pause

Seeing his opponent change from the swarthy Noah Vonleh to the rich and handsome Leonard, Young began to recall the preparations before the game:

"Meyers Leonard, the only long-range inside player with three-point shooting range for the Trail Blazers, currently makes 43 of 114 three-pointers."

The three-point shooting percentage of 377 is unbeatable.

It would be troublesome if Lillard was allowed to shoot away.

Continue the flanking attack.

Faced with inquiries from teammates, Young told them not to make changes

Facts have proved that Yang's choice was not wrong at all

Facing the next three great wide-open opportunities, Leonard only took advantage of one.

In the next few minutes, the Blazers' remaining offensive opportunities are nothing more than:

"Lillard missed a long three-pointer."

"Aminu missed a three-pointer from a wide open position."

"CJ McCollum singled and hit Moore."

"Lillard hit a super long three-pointer."

"Lillard encountered a double attack and made a passing error."

However, the Trail Blazers were lucky. Today, the 76ers made consecutive mistakes in their defensive counterattack.

leading to the end of the game

The 76ers only led the Trail Blazers by 11 points, 29:17.

"Scott, bike." Since he hadn't played a regular game for nearly a month, Young asked equipment manager Scott Rego to specially prepare a bicycle on the sidelines.

Ride on the sidelines until midway through the second quarter

Young returned to the bench
