king of defenders

Chapter 552 Crushing Lavin
Toronto, Scotiabank Arena.

The NBA All-Star Weekend Rookie Challenge is still going on, and it has reached the most critical moment. The number on the scoreboard has changed to 127:137, and the US team leads by 10 points.

At this time, there are only 5 minutes left in the fourth quarter, which means that if the World Team wants to win, they need to catch up with the score in these 5 minutes and overtake the score.

"Brothers." Meng Yun called to stop his teammates, "There are still 5 minutes left, enough time, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to defeat the US team and win the victory." Meng Yun glanced at the US team players, " This is the decisive moment, the opponent will definitely strengthen the defense, we must get serious and play well."

"Yeah." Capella nodded.

Jokic also said: "This time can no longer be regarded as a show, it must be played as a regular season. After all, we are still 10 points behind."

Yes.

Wiggins and Hezonia looked serious, and nodded in unison.

It’s okay if it’s the lead, but now we are 10 points behind, and the opponent has Towns, Okafor, Russell, and LaVine, and Towns, LaVine, and Russell all played very well today. The US team is very strong. Strong, if the world team wants to reverse the game by 5 points in 10 minutes and turn defeat into victory, it must be serious and play as a regular season.

Seeing that everyone was getting serious, Meng Yun smiled slightly and let everyone relax, saying: "It's time for us to attack. Let's go, let the US team see our strength."

"Walk."

"attack!"

Several people roared and rushed to the front field.

Meng Yun still played the No. 1 position. After getting the ball from the baseline, he quickly came to the frontcourt. LaVine rushed forward with sharp eyes.

The previous dunk duel with Meng Yun failed to determine the winner, and LaVine was a little upset. Meng Yun's dunk was equally exciting, which made him feel the pressure.

In addition, LaVine has scored 27 points, the highest score in the game, and now the US team is also leading the score. If nothing else, when the US team wins, he will be the mvp.

So no one in the entire US team wants to win more than LaVine.

And if you want to win, you must restrain Meng Yun.

"Meng Yun is the most threatening out of several people. He has excellent scoring ability and excellent organizational ability. As long as we guard against him well, we will win half the battle." LaVine thought to himself. , the world team's counterattack will be difficult to fight, and it is not an exaggeration to say that half of the victory has been won.

"Sure enough, they are serious." Meng Yun stared at LaVine, knowing clearly, "Yes, if the US team wins LaVine, they will be the mvp. Who can resist this temptation? If that's the case, then come on, what do you want? To guard against me and contain our counterattack, it depends on whether you have the ability."

The next moment, Meng Yun changed direction and started suddenly.

LaVine's heart skipped a beat. He was very afraid of Meng Yun's speed, but fortunately he was mentally prepared, so he wouldn't be caught off guard. He immediately adjusted his center of gravity, moved his feet, and got stuck in the position first.

The two stuck together in an instant, and Lavin breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, he rushed over without letting him take a step."

As long as Meng Yun does not rely on his speed to pass him in one step, LaVine has the confidence to defend against it.

But at this moment, Lavin's complexion changed suddenly, and he felt a huge force coming from Meng Yun's body, which made him back involuntarily, staggered, and moved out of his position.

"This..." LaVine was taken aback.

In an instant, Meng Yun stepped forward and passed LaVine. The surprised expression on LaVine's face fell into Meng Yun's eyes: "Surprised, isn't it? Yes, although there were fights in the previous regular season, I was 3 most of the time. The number position is always against Wiggins, or against Towns, and rarely against you. You only know that I am fast, but you have not felt my strength. You don’t know, actually My strength is actually higher than yours. Even if you react fast enough and are not passed by my speed, I can still push you away with strength."

In a moment of confrontation, the superior and the inferior will be judged.

This is why Meng Yun didn't care about Powell and Bogdanovic's chaos. Meng Yun knew that LaVine would definitely play in the last few minutes, because he played very well today.

At that time, I was still playing against LaVine. The previous comparisons with LaVine were all about speed and dunks, but Meng Yun still kept one hand, that is strength.

LaVine is a player with excellent athletic ability, with amazing jumping ability and a historical level in the air. His first step is fast, dexterous and quick, and he also has good shooting ability, but he actually has an obvious shortcoming, that is His physical fitness is weak and his physical resistance ability is poor.

Yes, LaVine's physical confrontation ability is relatively poor, and it can only be regarded as average in the NBA. After he broke through and entered the inside line, he relied more on terrifying bounces and staying in the air to keep defenders out of reach, and then scored the ball. Instead of crushing with his body like James did, making defenders helpless.

Physical confrontation is LaVine's weakness, how could Meng Yun not take advantage of it?
"Bang!"

With a loud bang, Meng Yun dunked with one hand.

When LaVine was passed, it would be difficult for the people behind to stop Meng Yun.

"nice shot."

"It's beautiful."

"Meng Yun, Meng Yun"

In the auditorium, the fans shouted loudly.

Lavin's face was gloomy, staring at Meng Yun's back.

LaVine lost this time, and this is the result Meng Yun wants. If he wants to counterattack and reverse, he needs to be aggressive and aggressive. Meng Yun wants to defeat LaVine head-on and encourage his side The morale of the team, inspire the fighting spirit and fighting spirit of teammates, and at the same time destroy the morale of the opponent.

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound, but it was LaVine's three-point strike. He wanted to fight back, but failed.

Downs came over and said to LaVine: "Don't challenge him one-on-one, we are still ahead, just play a bit more steadily."

LaVine was startled, and looked at Meng Yun unwillingly, before finally nodding his head: "Well, I understand. Come play later, you have an advantage inside."

The two retreated quickly, and the world team came to them.

Meng Yun gestured to his teammates, and once again singled out LaVine, still relying on his body to crush him. LaVine was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. It was indeed a disadvantage against him physically.

Swish!
Meng Yun scored again, and the score became 131:137.

"Damn it." LaVine cursed secretly, suppressed his anger, and passed the ball to Towns after coming to the frontcourt.

This choice was correct. Downs did not disappoint him. After being beaten by Meng Yun again, Downs grew up instantly. At this time, Downs was calmer than LaVine, with steady hands, and played cards with his back. Pera, scoring with a hook, helped the US team stabilize the situation, the score 131:139.

Turning around and walking back, Towns came to LaVine and said, "I'll help you defend later."

The corner of Lavin's mouth twitched and he nodded, but he was really depressed in his heart. He couldn't defend Meng Yun one-on-one, and he still needed the help of his teammates. It was so annoying!
