Learning in the NBA can make you a god

Chapter 251 A Difficult Start
Li Tian's three-pointer was the first shot.

With Cus holding the ball, Liu Wei still spared no effort to press the whole court to prevent the opponent from passing the half court easily. This tactic has also become a routine tactic.

On the one hand, it can reduce the opponent's attack time, on the other hand, it can also allow the inside players to have enough time to settle.

After halftime, Kus used the pick-and-roll, and the defender was replaced by Sun Yue. The height gap between the two was huge, and the speed of movement was also the same. Sun Yue's physical talent was good, but it was not well developed.

Small fight big, very classic tactics, fortunately did not enter the inside to play like this.

The continuous crotch dribble did not shake Sun Yue, but he has been hit like this a lot recently, and he has grown up.

Resolutely implement the coach's tactics. Although he did not shake the defender and suddenly accelerated the breakthrough, Sun Yue still lost his center of gravity. After moving laterally, he passed the defender and went to the basket.

Generally, he stepped forward quickly to defend, but he was a little old and his movement slowed down. There was no way to do it. He was put on the starting lineup. His physical strength was not the biggest problem, but his moving speed was the biggest hidden danger.

Croatia's first attack exposed this shortcoming.

Yunus also frowned, thinking about how to cover up this shortcoming, looked at Li Tian, ​​and could only make up for it from him, there was no other way.

Sudden points, Kus's breakthrough, the defense of the Chinese team was disrupted, Li Tian could only go to help defend, there was an open space on the outside, and the ball was given to Rodzic on the outside.

Also scored three points.

It seems that after seeing that Croatia was roughly mentioned as a starter, it also took advantage of the trend to make corresponding changes.

On the defensive end, Croatia chose man-to-man defense.

Liu Wei was tightly entangled by Coos, let alone a breakthrough, and there was no space for the ball to be distributed.

Looking at Croatia, it is an unknown team, but it is definitely not a team that everyone bullies.Under the leadership of the head coach Repesa, he plays very hard, cooperates tacitly, and has a tough style. He is somewhat similar to the iron-blooded Sloan and also attaches great importance to defense.It is a tough player with efficient defense. Looking at the group stage, Russia was tightly locked by them. Looking at Iran, they only scored 16 points in the half, which shows the horror of their defense.

The players are not well-known, but their strength is indeed unquestionable, which can be seen when they qualify for the group stage.The only disadvantage is that the inside line is weak. If the outside line feels bad, then it is no problem to be pressed and rubbed. Once the outside line is opened, no one can guard against it.

In the post-match interview after the victory over Australia, head coach Repesa expressed surprise at the team's high shooting percentage today, "Our shots today are unbelievable, but I think we still won the game relying on tenacious defense .”

It can be seen how much he attaches importance to defense.

When asked about his next opponent Russia, Repesa said: "We have to think about the next game, we may not have such a good shooting percentage today, we need to be prepared."

So cautious, always ready for outside misalignment.

Such a team, no matter which team it is, will be very difficult to play against, but compared to Lithuania and Argentina, it is relatively weaker.

Being able to make it like this, Repesa's ability is beyond doubt.

Seeing that the defense is so tight, Dayao is surrounded by the inside to defend.Dayao also realized that in this game, his consumption will definitely be great.

Li Tian stepped forward to meet Liu Wei.

After getting the ball, he roughly stepped forward to pick and roll, passed Rodzic's defense, and went to the basket.

If there is supplementary defense in the front and chasing defense in the back, the best way is to pass the ball.

But Li Tian didn't do this right away. He chose to stop and shoot. Seeing this, the two of them were a little uneasy. They felt that if they worked hard, they might be able to prevent it, but they were not sure if they could prevent it.

Yes, choosing the position of the shot is embarrassing for the defender, but the time difference is only 0.1 seconds, and it will not give you too much time to think. The two can only choose to continue to defend.

Seeing that the two also followed suit, they chose to pass the ball in a split second.

Many people think that jumping up and passing the ball has a high turnover rate, but for him, it seems that the turnover rate is lower.When he jumps, he usually attracts the defense, and the advantage of staying in the air for a long time is revealed, waiting for the opponent to take off.

Before he took off, he was already familiar with the position of his teammates. When the defense fell, he was basically at the highest point of the take-off. His passing accuracy was really average. At this time, even if his teammates were uncomfortable receiving the ball, There will also be some time to adjust.

"Li Tian passed the ball. Facing a double-team, he passed the ball to the general behind him. The general received the ball, and there was no defender in front of him. He jumped directly and made a mid-range shot. This is the position he is most familiar with, and the ball went in!" Director Zhang shouted.

The ball was scored, which means that the cooperation was successful this time, and the general movement was reduced, but the shooting was more stable.

Otherwise, how could Jonas put the three-point fort of the UAE on the bench.

The fans cheered, and the red ocean was like waves in the stadium, one after another.

"Haha, Brother Da Da, your CIC is still so stable." Liu Wei couldn't help but praise.

"Hahaha!" The son of chasing the wind back then, he is back.

Kus struggled through the halftime, and he felt that every time he just passed the halftime, his skin would peel off.

When the ball is given to Wukic, Sun Yue takes a step back to defend, and never chooses to defend closely.Even if the opponent shoots directly and has the advantage of height and wingspan, if he wants to interfere with the shot, it can be done.

There is no other way but to pick and roll and continue to play singles.

After the breakthrough, the ball was given to Barnich, and then to Kus, who made a mid-range shot.

For being singled out every time, I was generally very annoyed.But it didn't make him lose confidence. The trust of his teammates told him to persevere. As long as he appeared on the stage, he couldn't be lazy for even a second.

If you have strong faith, you have nothing to fear.

The two teams drew at 5:5.

Li Tian covered and dribbled the ball across the half-court after receiving the ball. Liu Wei was restricted a bit and could only let him dribble across the half-court.

Seeing the basket, Dayao had the upper hand and gave the ball to the basket, completely ignoring his defender.The huge difference in height made Rodzic very helpless.

After receiving the ball, Dayao turned around, easily pushed aside Balaci behind him, and easily made a dunk.Balaci is 217cm tall and weighs only 111kg. How can he resist Dayao?

In the first few attacks before the game, he was able to fight with Dayao. It was because Dayao did it on purpose, just to consume the opponent's physical energy. Now is the time for him to explode.

7:5 leading by two points.

Wukic continued to implement the tactics just now, roughly in singles, breaking through and scoring.I played several times in a row, just when I was about to score the ball and wanted to give it to Coos.

A black shadow flew over from a 45-degree position on the same side.

"Snapped!"

Intercepting the ball from the air, Li Tian dribbled the ball for a fast break.

Rodzic could only keep his head down and chase the defense quickly. While chasing and defending, he still observed Li Tian's position, and at the same time, he had to guard against the emergency stop shot outside the three-point line.

After reaching the three-point line, without the slightest hesitation, he went straight to the basket.

"Bang!"

A powerful dunk ended the fast break.

The fans kept waving the national flag and shouting Li Tian's name on the sidelines.

Taylor's first feeling when he saw this scene was - crazy, just crazy.It would be crazy to hold a concert by yourself, but it is definitely not comparable to this, because there is a breath of energy here.

Just finished a fast break, Li Tian did not celebrate, but shouted "Defense! Defense! Defense!"

Signal everyone, be on the defensive.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to not be caught off guard by Croatia.

Successfully prevented the opponent's fast break.

Can only fall into position, Croatia began to play pick and roll, this time it was replaced by Kus singles.

However, Li Tian, ​​who was on the side, was ready to assist in defense at any time. He was obviously afraid of assisting in defense. Instead of passing the ball, he directly broke through.

Generally, the speed is slow and can only be fouled.

"Di!"

The referee's whistle sounded, and Coos made two free throws.

However, it may be that the body has not moved yet, and he made one of two free throws.

9:6, still leading by 3 points, the game has been going on for 5 minutes, and the two teams together only scored 15 points, which is the lowest opening score for the Chinese team in this Olympic Games.

Both teams have slowed down their speed. With Yao Ming and Da Da, if they play fast, their turnovers will increase too much.

Dayao wants to be in place, the ball is given to the inside, Li Tian takes the defender away from the basket, and generally stays near the free throw line.Everyone pulled away and let Dayao play singles.

Very easy, another insider crush.

Easy dunks, many people will wonder why Yao Ming always chooses dunks, because the rules of the international men's basketball team, as long as the ball touches the basket, the defender can take a shot to interfere, whether it is above the basket or not.

At 11:6, the point difference came to 5 points, but it was not easy to play, and Dayao had a lot of physical exertion.

Wukic quickly served the baseline ball and wanted to catch the Chinese team by surprise. This time, Sun Yue was blocked by Coos and did not delay the advance very well.

Quickly crossing the half court, Barnich scored the ball in the bottom corner and scored a three-pointer.

This attack was very fast, and there was a loophole in the defense.

11:9, the point difference is only 2 points.

Looking back, Liu Wei passed the ball to the inside, made a mistake, and was intercepted by Coos.

Wukic blocked Sun Yue who was returning to the defense, and Kus made a one-stop layup.

11:11 The two sides drew again.

Dayao called everyone together and said, "Steady, don't worry, don't make mistakes, don't give your opponent a chance to break fast."

Keep reminding your teammates to reduce the number of passes, when the opponent's physical strength is at its best, you can play more pick-and-rolls, pass the ball hand-to-hand, and minimize mistakes.

Liu Wei held the ball and turned into a tool man this time. After halftime, he gave the ball to Li Tian and took the defender away.

After receiving the ball, hold the ball beyond the three-point line.

Rodzic, who was defending him, could only defend close to him. The difference in height and wingspan, he couldn't stop Li Tian from shooting, so he could only stick close to him, and didn't give him a chance to shoot a three-pointer.

Open the defense, speed up with one step, and kill the basket.

Seeing Barnich coming from the bottom line to help defend, he took a step forward and avoided the help defense.

Mid-range shots.

Miss!

Dayao grabbed the rebound and gave the ball to Sun Yue outside to reorganize the offense.

The ball returned to Li Tian's hands again, motioning for everyone to pull away.

Continue to break through with the ball and make an emergency stop in the middle distance.

Finally got in.

13:11 The scores of the two sides were very stalemate, and they never opened up.

In this way, you scored one and I scored another, and the stalemate lasted until 8 minutes, and the two teams began to rotate personnel one after another.
