Chapter 253 A Difficult Game

After several fast breaks, Repesa saw that the situation was not good, and quickly called a timeout.

The arena replayed the ball out of bounds just now.

But it was just a flash, and Repesa didn't bother to protest anymore.

"Sun is a sincere child, and his sincerity impressed the referee!" Barkley said with a smile.

Obviously he hit the bottom line by himself, but he told the referee sincerely that the ball should be awarded to the Tianchao team.

With Sun Yue's flickering and the fact that the referee's sight was blocked by Wang Shipeng, the final wrong judgment was made.

However, even if it is a wrong judgment, the referee will not change the judgment.

'I know I made a mistake, but I won't change it. 'The referee looked arrogant.

But at this time, everyone ignored this issue. It didn't matter. The referee had already made a penalty, and everyone's offense was successful. There was no point in entanglement.

For Repesa right now, the most important thing is how to deal with the immediate predicament.

There is only one way-strengthen the defense and rotate with the players, the physical energy of the main force is too much.

The substitutes headed by Thomas will be replaced on the field. This is the case with Croatian players. There is not much difference in the strength of the starters and the substitutes.

After replacing with a more energetic substitute, the UAE's fast break was also unable to make it.

The fast break just started, coupled with Li Tian's focus on defending Thomas on the court, the fast break slowly turned into a positional battle.

Seeing every attack on the field, Yunus found it extremely difficult, gritted his molars, and called a timeout.

I looked at the time, and there were 6 minutes left in the second quarter.

Dayao and Roughly had rested off the court for 8 minutes, and it was time to replace them.Croatia has always been like this. They scored wildly in the first two quarters, but in the second half, they began to slump.

"Li, Sun, you guys take a break after the game. Dayao will play, and the team will focus on the inside." Yunus made a change. Since the fast break can't be played, he will play positional warfare, grinding one by one. Anyway, there is Dayao, so he rested again. so long.

This is why, the reason why he has been resting off the court in the second quarter is for this moment.

Li Nan holds the ball and stands at the top of the arc.

"Haha, Yao finally made his debut. He has rested long enough and it's time to show his power." Barkley has always believed that Yao is a bug in international basketball, both offensively and defensively.

Not surprisingly, Dayao mentioned the free throw line to break through the pick-and-roll.

Then turn around and go down, Li Nan will give Dayao, who is going down, double-teamed by Croatia.

Seeing a double team, the ball was given to Ah Lian on the bottom line, the defender returned to the defense, and was given to Dayao.

Squeeze the defender and score a dunk at the basket.

"Yao Ming! Yao Ming! Yao Ming!" The fans cheered again when they saw Dayao under the basket, killing all directions.

Barkley glanced at Smith and said, "Hahaha, how is it? Isn't Yao very good?"

"Of course, otherwise you wouldn't kiss a donkey's ass!" Smith also knew that Dayao was a dominant player in the international arena.

Croatia's outside players were replaced, and Thomas became the team's main attack point, which was the main reason for putting him on the bench.

Facing Dazhu's defense, Thomas called a pick-and-roll, rushed to the basket, stopped for a jumper, and made a mid-range shot.

Dayao was under the basket, and in many cases, he was unable to defend near the half-block. Croatia took advantage of this weakness and shot from the half-block position.

"Damn it!" Da Zhu was a little discouraged and failed to prevent Thomas' breakthrough.

"It's okay, come back next time!" Dayao said, no one can defend successfully every time, there will always be times when they are broken through.

Da Zhu patted his face a few times to wake himself up.

Li Nan pushed forward with the ball, faced double-teaming, and gave the ball to Wang Shipeng who came to meet him with difficulty.

The advancement is very slow. Every time the Croatian players are upper body and biting defense, they are very oppressive.

"Hey, the players' body and strength are too weak, and this area needs to be strengthened in the future." Director Zhang sighed. Most of the players played in China, and their physical resistance was too weak, so they neglected to strengthen their bodies.

The reason why James can last so long in his peak period is because of the emphasis on his body.The same is true for Kobe, but his pursuit is different from that of James. For every victory, he will do his best to avoid minor injuries.

If it wasn't for the rupture of the Achilles tendon and the accumulation of too many physical injuries, it would not be a problem to play for two more seasons.He will still contribute more than 15 points per game. Even with a ruptured Achilles tendon, he averages around 20 points per game.

"I K, it hurts too much." Wang Shipeng couldn't help cursing.

It is also very difficult for Dayao to play the ball to the inside. When playing singles in a double team, other players are defended very hard. It is very difficult to distribute the ball to the outside.

In the double-team, Dayao also lost his hook.

Hook to strike iron.

Balach grabbed the rebound and gave Coos a quick push, trying to take the opportunity to launch a fast break.

Of course, Jonas has already made a response. Once he misses a shot, grabs a rebound from the inside, and retreats quickly from the outside, he must stick to it.

In this way, after playing for a few more minutes, the shooting percentages of both teams were very low.

Croatia double-teamed Dayao, but Dayao guarded the interior. Croatia's breakthrough success rate was also very low, and the outside shooting rate was also appalling.

Even if Li Tian appeared on the stage, nothing changed.

The offense of the two teams seemed to have come to a standstill.

In the first quarter, because of the fast break, the play was relatively sudden, and in addition to the serious physical exertion of the Croatian starter, the United Arab Emirates broke the game and played a small climax.

After that, Tianchao has never completed a fast break again. Once it sees that it cannot stop the fast break, it will choose to foul, even if it sends the opponent to the free throw line, it will also foul.

The same goes for both teams.

The rapid consumption of physical strength has greatly reduced the hit rate.

At the end of the halftime game, the two teams ended the first half with 40:34.

"The offense of the two teams has almost come to a standstill, and someone needs to break the deadlock. Li Tianci's appearance in the second quarter did not change the situation of the game. I don't know which team will break the deadlock first in the second half." Barkley said.

What he didn't think of was why Dayao didn't break the deadlock.

It's not that Yao Ming's ability has declined, but that the team's outside shooting rate is too low. If you want to play a combination of inside and outside, you can't play at all. Croatia compresses its defense and double-teams inside, making it difficult to play.

Li Tian was 2 for 0 from the outside line and 2 for 1 in the mid-range shot; Da Zhu was 1 for 0 and only got one shot; Dayao, in the second quarter, has the rhythm of being turned against the wind.

"Da Zhu, how do you feel?" Li Tian knew that although Da Zhu didn't play much time, he was under a lot of pressure, mainly because he was defending the opponent Thomas during the time when he was under a lot of pressure.

"It hurts. Their defense feels stronger than that of the beautiful country." Da Zhu also played against Anthony, and he didn't have such a sense of oppression.

America's offense is very strong, but on the defensive end, in the feeling of the first game, he doesn't think it is stronger than Croatia.At least Anthony's defense gave him a sense of oppression, not as strong as Thomas'.

Li Tian smiled at this, Anthony is not defensive, it does not mean that his defense is not strong.

This is because Anthony has never been serious about defense, and of course defense is not his strong point.Coupled with the fact that they have been leading since then, there is no need to defend so strongly.

"You said that Croatia's defense is stronger? That means you haven't experienced what a real defense is. If you have a chance, you can go and see the defense in the NBA Finals. If there is any defense, put it here, every time it is against the body .” Lower your voice, say this sentence.

Hearing this sentence, both Da Zhu and Chen Jianghua, who was staring at him, were stunned and stopped in the player tunnel.

"What?" Before Ah Lian returned to China, he didn't believe it when he told him that, and he didn't think it would be too strong.

He sighed in his heart. He never raised the defensive intensity to the highest level during normal training. It seems that he made a mistake.

"Yes, when it comes to the semi-finals, you can look at the defense of the beautiful country team, and you will know what defense is." Li Tianlang said.

He looked at the two people who were still in a daze.

"Don't think about it, go back quickly."

Pulling the two of them back to the locker room.

Seeing Dayao gasping for breath, he knew that although he only played for 12 minutes, he was not restricted by the outside line, and it was too difficult to play inside, and he was double-teamed every time.

Li Tian's hand feeling also became cold in this quarter of the game. With Dayao guarding the basket, it was difficult for him to hit the basket.

"We played very difficult, but they are equally difficult. Now we still have the advantage. The score was not opened in this quarter, only because of the low shooting percentage from the outside.

Don't worry everyone, the game feel will definitely come back in the second half, we still have the advantage inside, we must persevere, whoever can persevere will win the game.

There are only 20 minutes left before you write a new history." Another bowl of chicken soup.

After the players heard the word history, their eyes lit up. Just now, because of the confrontation, their momentum was hit, but after Yunus's chicken soup, all of them seemed to have been injected with chicken blood.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the two teams still maintained the shooting percentage of the second quarter, and the offense was like constipation. The score was even lower at 12:13, setting a new low.

The enthusiasm of the fans was suppressed again, the shouts of many fans began to disappear, and the huge stadium became silent.

"What about your morale? Look at the fans behind you. They came to the arena early for your hysterical shouting, shouting for you and cheering for you. But look at you, what are you playing now? A game like shit , lose no shame.

Croatia has very few personnel rotations, and their physical strength is almost exhausted, and the physical strength will only be more exhausted in the future, and the decisive moment is in these few minutes.

Dayao rests first, Li, Yi, Dazhu, Sun, Wang, five of you are on stage. "

What Jonas said may not mean anything to other players, but for players who have received nine years of compulsory education, the effect is extraordinary.

Everyone nodded heavily, secretly cheering for themselves, and told themselves that they must persevere, history is in front of them, and there is a country behind them, and these lovely fans.
