Chapter 12 The Trash Master
David Tyrone and Lafrenz are on the midfield line and are about to start jumping.
Lafrenz is 211 cm tall. Of course, such a height cannot be considered short, but it is pale in comparison with David, and even his body is far less stout than David.
"Beep!" The referee blew the whistle and threw the rebound in his hand. David easily won the jump ball on Lafrenz's head.
After Jackson got the ball from his teammates, he slowly advanced towards the frontcourt. Because he didn't need to score points in this game, he was not in a hurry to attack.
Pierce came up directly and defended Jackson in close combat.
The showdown between the two of them was the focus of this game tonight. As they met, the audience members calmed down one after another.
Jackson still managed to control the ball slowly, and then accelerated suddenly after reaching outside the three-point line in the frontcourt. He rushed to the near-the-free throw line with his teammate's pick-and-roll, and then made a steadily shot with a mid-range shot.
The goal was quite simple and efficient, and it had nothing to do with gorgeousness, but the more this was the more it reflected Jackson's strength now.
Pierce frowned, and he found that Jackson was far stronger than he thought.
It was the Pine Hawks' turn to attack the ball, Pierce was about to get the ball in the frontcourt, and he was going to return Jackson.
In Pierce's view, this game is a confrontation between himself and Jackson. Although he has no plans to participate in the 1997 draft, if he can defeat Jackson, who is currently in the limelight, it will be extremely beneficial to his future draft.
Jackson is not guaranteed to participate in the draft in the same year as him. He has a historical record of defeating Jackson, and it is undoubtedly more favorable in the draft.
It was almost a replica of Jackson's offensive round just now. Pierce also accelerated and used his teammates to make mid-range shots with the help of his teammate's pick-and-roll.
Unfortunately, Pierce did not hit the ball, and the basketball collapsed.
Jiang Dongbing's eyes shone on the sidelines and the rebound appeared. It's up to see David Taylon's performance.
David at the basket used his huge body to block Lafrenz behind the basket the moment Pierce took action. After the basketball collapsed, he stretched out his long arm and grabbed the rebound with one hand.
With a super amazing height and wingspan, coupled with a terrifying huge palm, David Tyron in normal form is completely a human-shaped rebounding machine.
Lafrenz stood behind her back and looked up at David's heroic figure who grabbed the rebound, and was shocked.
He is not a traditional blue-collar insider, but his style is more like a space power forward. Rebounding and low-post singles are not his strengths.
Lafrenz suddenly encountered such an extremely bluffing behemoth like David Tyron, and he became anxious.
After David grabbed the rebound, he handed the ball to Jackson who rushed to the basket, and then took big steps and rushed towards the frontcourt.
Lafrenz can guarantee that he could even feel the vibration of the floor beneath his feet!
"What is this guy's tonnage? 150 kilograms? It seems to be more than just!" Lafrenz thought in his mind.
Jackson still took the ball in a calm manner, and after reaching the frontcourt, Pierce still defended the ball alone.
Another sudden speedup was achieved. Jackson did not shoot mid-range shots with the help of a pick-and-roll, but directly attacked the basket.
David Tyron at the basket had already stuck Lafrenz behind him, which was a perfect layup opportunity.
"Swish!"
Jackson made a layup with ease, and Pierce, who was chasing the defense from behind, looked ashen, and Jackson hit him two in succession, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"But that's the case, no wonder I didn't go to the draft." Jackson grinned at Pierce frivolously after scoring two points.
Many fans only know that Jackson is good at punching and kicking skills, but they don’t know that his mouth and cannon skills are also master level.
Under normal circumstances, after retirement, Jackson joined the Big3 League, composed of a group of retired veterans, and won the "honor" of the league's best trash talk master.
This is a master in the trash talk circle...
A simple sentence just like this almost made Pierce explode in anger.
Pierce, who was angry and attacked his heart, made a three-pointer in the next offensive round and even hit it.
With a difficult three-pointer, Pierce felt relieved instantly and glanced at Jackson: "Rookie, are you ready to lose?"
"No, we can't lose, because I will completely beat you up and score 50 points under your defense!" Jackson immediately fought back.
"Hillman, do you think this is your third-tier league game?" Pierce jokingly smiled.
The two of them started talking back and forth, and the trash talk was very lively.
If it were other players, they would probably have been blown away by Jackson's trash talk at this moment, but Pierce is also a master of trash talk. The two of them are playing against each other today.
Perhaps affected by trash talk, Jackson missed the iron in the next offensive round.
At this time, David Tyron's value was reflected. With the petite Lafrenz stuck, David accepted the second rebound of the game.
After grabbing the rebound, David passed the ball to his teammate who was closest to him, and his teammate made a mid-range shot.
I have to say that the Grizzlies players, let’s not talk about anything else, at least their shooting ability is very reliable.
Turning around, it was the Pinehawks' turn to attack. Pierce's move was also a missed shot, but Lafrenz failed to grab the rebound, and the rebound was still snatched into David Tayron's arms.
Not long after the game started, the Grizzlies showed extremely amazing combat power.
Originally, everyone thought the Pine Eagles would start beating the Grizzlies and directly establish a huge lead in the first half, allowing the game to enter garbage time early.
But now the situation is behind 6:3, and the fans at the scene are very clear that Song Hawks will inevitably fall into a tough battle tonight.
Jackson is indeed very strong, and everyone knows this. What really surprised them was David Tyron, a player. According to previous reports from various media, David's experience is inspirational, but his strength is just that.
Playing in the third-level league, with only that kind of data, obviously nothing to do with strength.
But tonight, David Tyron pressed Lafrenz to the ground and rubbed Lafrenz to the ground, and the rebound was completely overwhelming.
Even though Lafrenz is not the best inside player in Kansas, at least it is not a big problem to be in the top three. Such a top inside player was actually completely defeated by an unknown person?
Jiang Dongbing on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief, and his ace did not disappoint him. The Gemini who faced the Song Eagles completely had the upper hand.
The game on the court continued. Jackson and Pierce had bad touches and their shooting percentages were both awkward, but the Grizzlies still gradually widened the score gap with David Tyron's dominance on the rebound.
Jiang Dongbing couldn't help but be happy. The game had been going on for ten minutes, and they are currently firmly in the lead with a score of 19:11.
David's performance was perfect, and he had already scored eight rebounds in just ten minutes!
On the other hand, Lafrenz still has zero rebounds. In terms of rebounds, David Tyron completely defeated Lafrenz.
"Dududu!" The Pine Eagles called a timeout directly.
The fans at the scene were very angry. They originally wanted to see the home team abuse the food, but now in just ten minutes, their home team was actually suspended.
There is no NBA team in Kansas, and the Pine Hawks can be said to be the belief of Kansas fans, but this belief was destroyed by a team that popped up from somewhere.
"Coach, we will win this game!" Jackson said excitedly to Jiang Dongbing.
Jiang Dongbing shook his head. He had never underestimated the Song Eagles. Even if he had the advantage in the scene now, he did not think that he was 100% sure to win.
"Stephen, the game has just begun, don't draw conclusions too early."
"The other party has not shown any real skills in the past ten minutes. Remember, don't underestimate your opponent." Jiang Dongbing said slowly.
Taking advantage of the timeout, Jiang Dongbing thought about the next tactics that the Song Eagles might have arranged.
Chapter completed!
