Chapter 1497 Inside duel, Xianglong vs Antetokounmpo

"Here we come." Brother Antetokounmpo thought to himself, ready to fight.

Calathes has been playing in the European arena. Although he knows that Meng Yun is good, he doesn't have many opportunities to play against Meng Yun. Antetokounmpo knows that Meng Yun is good. The two sides have played too many times, especially in the playoffs. Opportunities have been encountered every time in two or three years, and the Bucks are also unlucky. They played very well in the regular season, but they met Meng Yun in the playoffs and lost every time.

Knowing how powerful Meng Yun is, Brother Antetokounmpo didn't think Calathes could guard Meng Yun, so he quickly returned to the inside line and blocked Meng Yun's front.

However, Meng Yun did not come at him, but passed the ball from behind in a chic way, and the basketball passed through the crowd. Brother Antetokounmpo was surprised, and saw the basketball flying by, and subconsciously wanted to go Stealing, but without success.

Meng Yun used a behind-the-back pass for this pass, which was very concealed, powerful, and fast. The basketball flew almost straight out of the three-point line in the left corner.

People looked at the basketball one after another.

Brother Antetokounmpo's heart skipped a beat, he yelled inwardly, and rushed to the left three-point line, where Xiang Long was.

When the ball arrives, Xiang Long catches the ball and shoots it immediately. Antetokounmpo is too late after all. By the time he throws the ball into Xiang Long's hands, he has already taken the shot. The basketball draws an arc and finally hits hollow.

"pretty."

"Haha, I returned one."

The Chinese fans couldn't help cheering.

Neither side scored in the next two rounds. Antetokounmpo squinted his eyes, asked for the ball from his teammates, and then singled Xiang Long. He stood outside the three-point line and suddenly accelerated. Xiang Long retreated quickly, but Antetokounmpo also stopped. Suddenly a jumper caught people off guard.

Swish!
The ball goes in.

"It seems that Brother Antetokounmpo didn't warm up in vain." Meng Yun chuckled, pushed the ball into the frontcourt and handed it to Xiang Long, motioning for others to pull away.

At this time, it is necessary to fight tit for tat, and you can't let it go, otherwise it will only increase the momentum of Brother Antetokounmpo, and Xiang Long's strength is not weak, it's not that he can't compete with Brother Antetokounmpo.

Xiang Long took the ball and looked at Brother Antetokounmpo, their eyes collided.

Last season, when the Heat and the Bucks played against each other in the playoffs, Xiang Long played against Antetokounmpo directly. However, Xiang Long was not so strong at that time, and he was at a disadvantage against Antetokounmpo, but it was not completely He has no achievements, he can't guard Antetokounmpo, but he actually played well on the offensive end.

Now after another season of training, Xiang Long has become the leader of the Heat, an All-Star player, and his strength has improved a lot. He will be more calm when facing Antetokounmpo again.

A tentative step, Brother Antetokounmpo was unmoved, and Xiang Long didn't care. Suddenly it was a dry movement. Brother Antetokounmpo's heart jumped, and he jumped forward subconsciously.

But he was fooled.

This is a fake move, a very realistic fake move. Xiang Long took the opportunity to break through, passed Brother Antetokounmpo, and then hugged the ball and rushed to the inside line to score a layup.

"I was fooled." Brother Antetokounmpo said to himself, and he had to admit that Xiang Long's skills were better than his.

Xiang Long's skills are better, but his physical fitness is much worse than that of Antetokounmpo. Turning around, Antetokounmpo is playing with his back. Passing the ball to the outside, the Greek players passed the ball quickly. At the same time, his teammates helped Calathes make a cover. Calathes took the opportunity to shake off Meng Yun, and made an air cut to catch the ball and make a layup.

Turning around, Xiang Long took the ball from outside the three-point line, and then made a fake shot. This time, Brother Antetokounmpo was not fooled. Xiang Long pulled it out immediately, but Brother Antetokounmpo reacted very quickly. Quick, almost blocked the ball.

Under Antetokounmpo's interference, the ball was missed. The Greek team got the rebound and launched a counterattack. The basketball was passing quickly. Antetokounmpo suddenly started, throwing off Xiang Long and rushing inside. Antetokounmpo jumped up, relying on his height and long arms to bounce well, took the ball off in the crowd, and then jumped up again without dribbling, his body flew obliquely to the basket, and scored with a basket.

At this time, the Chinese team has actually shrunk their defenses, and there are many people around Antetokounmpo, but they still can't stop them.

"This talent is really terrifying."

"Yeah, Antetokounmpo has such a height and wingspan, but he can still have the agility and flexible skills comparable to a defender. It's really abnormal."

In the comments of the fans, Director Gong also frowned.

Compared with Brother Antetokounmpo, Xiang Long is still slightly inferior. He can't guard against Brother Antetokounmpo, but Brother Antetokounmpo can restrict Xiang Long by relying on his physical talent, so generally speaking, Xiang Long is still at a disadvantage against Brother Antetokounmpo.

Director Gong looked at Meng Yun and nodded at Meng Yun. Meng Yun understood and nodded in response. Then, when he came to the front court, Meng Yun was a breakthrough. Almost no one could stop his breakthrough. He was fast and skilled. There is also height and wingspan, which is almost unsolvable.

Calathes was passed again, he quickly turned around and chased, Meng Yun rushed to the inside, slowed down slightly, Brother Antetokounmpo subconsciously rushed over, and just as he rushed over, Meng Yun scored the ball and passed it to Xiang Long, Xiang Long's Physically gifted, his impact is not as good as Antetokounmpo, but his skills are sharper and his shooting is very stable, so he didn't delay after receiving the ball, and he just made a jump shot.

Swish!
The ball goes in.

Now it was the Greek coach's turn to frown.

Antetokounmpo can suppress Xiang Long, and he has the upper hand in the duel between the two. However, the Chinese team still has Meng Yun. Meng Yun and Xiang Long cooperate, and Antetokounmpo falls into a disadvantage.

With Meng Yun's help to restrain Brother Antetokounmpo and pass the ball to Xiang Long, Xiang Long will not suffer so much against Brother Antetokounmpo.

By the end of the first quarter, the Chinese team led by 4 points.

Brother Antetokounmpo was panting, and his face was not very good-looking. He played very well in this quarter, but he was still behind the opponent, which made him very upset.

The head coach of the Greek team pondered for a while, and began to order: "We can't rely too much on Giannis. Others are also proactive and have to stand up and score. Except for Meng Yun, Xiang Long, and Yi Jianlian, the opponents are stronger than us. Weak, we must make good use of this.”

Greek team players have promised.

Entering the second quarter, Antetokounmpo reduced his personal offense and focused more on attracting defense to create opportunities for his teammates. Indeed, as the head coach of the Greek team said, except for Meng Yun, Xiang Long, and Yi Jianlian, the rest of the Chinese team The personal strength of the players is not as good as that of the Greek players. When Antetokounmpo restrains the defense and opens up space so that his teammates can form one-on-one opportunities, it will be difficult for the Chinese team to defend.

After a few minutes, the Chinese team gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the Greek team seized the opportunity to catch up with the score and quickly lead the score.
