Chapter 151 Meng Yun's new skill

"beep"

Pause ends.

At this time, after 7 minutes in the first half, the score was 16:14, and the Wildcats had overtaken by two points.

After returning to the field, LS University has significantly reduced its internal offense. Gordon has not slackened this winter vacation. Although he is not like Evan and Meng Yun, who returned to school for training early, his state has not declined much compared to before the winter vacation. , He sticks to the inside line, never leaves the three-second zone, and with Evan's cooperation, the two manage the Wildcats' penalty area like a rock, which makes LS University very helpless. Their inside line does not have too strong a person.

One of the strongest points of LS University is the small forward Mike David. He has tried to attack the inside, but ended in failure. He was blocked by Evan, which is very embarrassing.

Not taking advantage of the inside, LS University began to enhance outside projection.

After Barney Rupert advanced to the frontcourt, he made a pick-and-roll with his teammates, and then passed the ball to Mike David. Mike David made a breakthrough, passed half of Ronald, and suddenly jumped up.

Swish!
With a soft bang, the basketball made a hollow hit, and the score was 16:16.

"Hmph." Mike David looked at Ronald and smiled contemptuously.

Ronald's expression was indifferent, without any change, he just smiled secretly, didn't he just score a goal, his tail almost went up to the sky, just wait, we will pay you back right away.

The Wildcats attack.

Meng Yun advanced to the frontcourt, and Barney Rupert pounced on him, sticking very close, to guard against Meng Yun's three-pointer, but he didn't dare to reach out rashly. He had already suffered a loss, so he didn't dare to underestimate Meng Yun again. .

After taking a look at the situation on the field, Meng Yun knew what was going on, and gestured to his teammates. They understood and pulled them away. However, the strategy of LS University was the same as that of the Wildcats, with the center resolutely defending the basket.

This is also to deal with Meng Yun's breakthrough. Meng Yun can shoot three-pointers and has a sharp breakthrough. Outside players need to defend against his three-pointers, but if they are too close, they are easy to be passed by him. Therefore, inside players need to make up defense in time , You must leave one person in the penalty area, and once Meng Yun breaks through, he will immediately make up the defense.

"Hmph, you're just fast, you can shoot a three-pointer, what else?" Barney Rupert looked at Meng Yun, staring at Meng Yun's shoulder.

If it can be defended, Barney Rupert should try to defend Meng Yun as much as possible, and can't let Meng Yun pass by casually. Doesn't it seem that you are useless?

The next moment, Meng Yun started.

Left shoulder sinks, breaks to the left, and Barney Rupert moves quickly to the right, takes a half-step back, and gets stuck.

But at this moment, Meng Yun suddenly shook, as if he was jumping. He was originally on the right side of Barney Rupert, but suddenly he was on the left side, and his speed exploded instantly.

"What?" Barney Rupert was surprised and shouted in his heart: "Where is the ball? Others can move it, but where did the ball go?" He took a closer look, only to realize that the ball had arrived at Meng Yun at some point. His right hand, accompanied by the explosion of his speed, the person and the ball moved together, as fast as a phantom, and rushed past him in an instant.

On the sidelines, Danny Clemens frowned, and praised: "This one has a good change of direction behind it, and it is very concealed. But although it passed the defender, there is another one behind."

"Neil Leonard can't stop Meng Yun," Mason Carr said.

As soon as the words fell, Meng Yun jumped up.

Neil Leonard was surprised. The coach said that Meng Yun's scoring methods are only three-pointers, air cuts, and breakthrough layups. He basically doesn't know mid-range, but what's going on?

Surprised for a moment, Neil Leonard didn't even pounce.

Swish!
With a soft sound, the ball goes in.

Neil Leonard looked to the sidelines, and Faulkner Edward frowned, but he didn't say anything. He couldn't figure out whether Meng Yun's ball was accidental or really capable.

Here, Danny Klemans' eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "It turned out to be a CIC!"

"Hehe." Mason Carl chuckled and said, "Danny, don't be so surprised, isn't it just a mid-range shot? It's not like Meng Yun can't make mid-range shots at all. What's more, his progress is so fast, It’s not unbelievable to suddenly develop a new skill.”

"You mean?" Danny Klemans suddenly smiled, "Haha, that's great. With the CIC, Meng Yun will be even more difficult to guard."

on the field.

LS University's offense, their strategy is still to use outside shooting, but since it is outside shooting, then naturally there will be times when it will go in or not.

With a bang, LS University made a shot and hit the iron.

Gordon grabbed the rebound and quickly passed it to Meng Yun. However, LS University retreated quickly and saw no chance to play a fast break. Meng Yun slowed down and gestured to his teammates. Gordon and Evan gave Andy made a screen, and Andy circled the inside line, and came to the left corner outside the three-point line. Meng Yun flicked his wrist and passed the ball.

boom!
It's a pity that Andy missed the three-pointer.

The basketball bounced back towards Meng Yunfei. Meng Yun's eyes lit up and he immediately grabbed the basketball. He was already at a right angle to the left of the free throw line. CIC.

"what?"

People are surprised.

But the next moment, with a bang, the basketball hit the net.

"Damn it." Faulkner-Edward on the sidelines quickly called a timeout, thinking to himself: "How can a player with accurate three-pointers have no mid-range shooting ability at all? We were deceived by the Wildcats."

For today's game, Faulkner-Edward has prepared for a long time, and even asked the players to return to school a week in advance, and carefully studied the Wildcats.After studying the previous game data of the Wildcats and some videos, he found that Meng Yun can only "three-axes", as long as he guards against his "three-axes", he is not a threat.

So in this game, he didn't regard Meng Yun as a threat, and he didn't even pay special attention to it. When he emphasized defense, he also emphasized the defense against Evan and Andy.

But who knew that Meng Yun suddenly had a mid-range shot, and it seemed to be very good, hitting two in a row.

Faulkner-Edward didn't dare to let it go. He didn't believe that it was accidental that Meng Yun got into both. As for why Meng Yun hadn't shown it before, he thought it was Mason Carr who made him hide it on purpose.He didn't believe that Meng Yun had just developed it now, that was really ridiculous.

But strictly speaking, Meng Yun is indeed only developed now. In front of him, his body has suddenly changed, and his coordination ability has problems. In addition, his basic skills are not good enough, and his shooting stability is poor, which leads to his poor mid-range. When it comes to shooting, it only has a hit rate of 30.00%, which is almost equal to no mid-range shot.

Of course, this is not static. As Meng Yun adapts to his body, his coordination ability improves, and his basic skills improve, his three-pointers are becoming more and more accurate, and his mid-range is also gradually improving.

The 20 days of the winter vacation are a period of transformation for Meng Yun's mid-range shooting.

It can be said that during this winter vacation, Meng Yun gained the most from his improvement in mid-range shooting, so it is not an exaggeration to say that mid-range shooting is a "new skill" he developed only this winter vacation.
