Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 279 Did I Say I Want to Duel You? [First update, ask for a monthly ticket]

"The score between the two sides is now tied at 47:47. Lu Yu's ultra-long three-pointer tied the score. This was a murderous three-pointer, which directly extinguished the warm atmosphere of the Warriors' home court."

Sun Yiping said excitedly.

"Lu Yu's shooting posture is very elegant, it's really accurate... The Warriors attacked, they didn't panic, Arenas faced the Bulls with a good pass, and Jamison at the bottom line caught the ball and made a layup. very tacit.”

Facing the Warriors' defense, Lu Yu called a pick-and-roll. Miller came up to help him block the defender. At this time, the Warriors' center Yao Ming pounced.

"Be careful of being blocked by me, it's embarrassing, this game is also broadcast in China," Yao Ming said.

"Really?" Lu Yu smiled slightly.

He suddenly lowered the center of gravity, and after changing direction in advance, the shipping accelerated greatly, tearing the gap between Yao Ming and Jamison like a cheetah, and two fast low dribbles drilled through the gap between them.

Yao Ming paused, knowing that he was too late to return to the defense.

"Lu Yu's shot is beautiful. It's a typical defender's play that uses the funnel at the moment of switching to tear the defensive formation after screening. You must know that he is more than two meters tall. This season, you can often see Lu Yu using this. A breakthrough action, and his breakthrough is almost like a textbook." Sun Yiping said.

There was a smooth road in front of Lu Yu.

accelerate,
Pick the basket to score.

49:49
The whistle sounded, and the Warriors called a timeout. The Warriors coach didn't choose to call a timeout when Lu Yu made the three-pointer, because the score was only tied at that time. He chose to trust his players and be Lu Yu. After the second tie, that is, when they are tied for the second time, call a timeout at this time, and the psychological fluctuations of the players will not be too great.

Therefore, a good coach will not only know when and what tactics should be arranged, but more importantly, he will understand his players and understand their psychological emotions.

The head coach of the Warriors took the tactical board and tugged at the tie of his suit: "I don't think I need to say more on offense, you guys played very well, what I want to emphasize is defense, Antoine, you have to impose on the Bull's Lu. Pressure, we can't let him break through so easily, we can't flank him, it's far from the time to flank him, so it's up to you to work hard on defense, Yao, when the opponent's center is covering, you have to do a good job of returning. Prepare to withdraw, the opponent does not dare to shoot easily in front of you, you are too tall, all you have to do is to prevent him from hitting the basket, understand?"

"understand!"

Cartwright frowned. He didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd.What adjustments have been made to personnel?This made him a little uncertain.

Lu Yu smiled: "It's the best way to adapt to changes."

After the timeout ended, players from both sides came on the court. As a result, the Warriors players did not change at all. The old fox on the opposite side feinted a shot. Fortunately, Cartwright was not fooled.

When the coaches on both sides came to a battle of wits, Richardson and Hamilton's 'blind chicken run' tactic was beyond the opponent's expectations.

"This game is good, the two sides are really moving." Zhang Weiping said excitedly: "What is watching a basketball game? In addition to the players' skills and tactics, the battle of wits and courage between coaches is the best thing to watch. The place, the confrontation between the two coaches, everyone may wish to see who can have the last laugh."

When Lu Yu passed the Warriors' bench, he turned to look at Eric Musselman, the historically useless coach of the Warriors.

It doesn't look so useless, but there are two brushes.

The game continued, the Warriors held the ball, and Yao Ming mentioned receiving the ball from the free throw line after halftime. Yao Ming was very tall, and he wanted the ball in the interior. Miller could also defend around the front and back, but if Yao Ming mentioned the high post Now, Miller has nothing to do with Yao Ming's catch.

Lu Yu suddenly noticed that Jamison was moving in the direction of Arenas.

Off the ball screen?
He smiled, Jamison really wanted to screen off the ball for Arenas, and he didn't plan to do it very covertly, because their purpose was obvious, to force Lu Yu and Richard Senlen to switch defenses.

Lu Yu wanted to go around, but Arenas' arm was hanging on him. They were sure that Arenas could cause trouble to Lu Yu, and Arenas also had this confidence.

If you want to change it, then change it.

"Switch defenses!"

Lu Yu shouted loudly, Richardson moved his footsteps after hearing the sound, and gave up his position.

Arenas stuck Lu Yu behind him. As soon as he was stuck, the ball was in his hands. Arenas, who received the ball, didn't even dribble the ball. He swayed his shoulders directly to the right. After that, pull the body back and turn left to make a jumper.

Suddenly, a dark shadow rose in front of him, it was Lu Yu.

"Pretty defense...hey, I was cheated, Arenas didn't vote." Sun Yiping sighed.

Arenas knew that Lu Yu's defense was excellent, and the two had been opponents since college, so he deliberately kept one hand, and when he blocked Lu Yu's block, he put the ball to the side and made an emergency stop shot.

Lu Yu twisted his body, but it was too late, so he could only interfere with his hands.

Arenas raised the arc of his shot, and the basketball crossed Lu Yu's fingertips and crossed a high arc.

"Shh!"

Basketball hit the net.

"You almost covered me." Arenas pouted and shook his head. The meaning of shaking his head is self-evident, like Mutombo shaking his fingers.

51:49
Richardson passed the ball out before halftime. Lu Yulun received the ball and looked at Arenas not far away.

"If you have the ability, you can also switch defenses." Lu Yu said with a smile.

Arenas glanced at Lu Yu, "Okay."

Richardson made an ok gesture and took Jamison to the other side.

Lu Yu held the ball and was one step away from the three-point line. The defender in front of him was replaced by Arenas. He didn't dribble the ball. Arenas pressed his body tightly against Lu Yu. He couldn't give Lu Yu any space to shoot. Much taller than him, he had to give Lu Yu a body to prevent Lu Yu from scoring easily.

Lu Yu smiled, "Did I say I want to fight you one-on-one?"

Before he finished speaking, his wrist flicked.

The basketball flew over layers of human walls and flew directly to the right at a 45-degree angle. Richardson threw off Jamison's defense from the baseline with the help of a screen.

"Shh!"

Basketball hit the net.

51:52
At the end of the second quarter, the Bulls overtook the score because of Lu Yu's 'despicable' behavior.

……

houston.

Jay Williams was lying on the sofa watching the game at halftime, gritted his teeth and turned off the TV. He suddenly found that the gap between himself and Lu Yu was getting bigger and bigger, which made him feel a little lost.

In fact, he played pretty well in the Rockets this year, but it's just not bad.

He used to be the favored son of heaven, but Lu Yu taught him a lesson in the NCAA, and since then he wanted to defeat Lu Yu head-on one day.

It's a pity that Lu Yu has already gone to the NBA.

I finally came to the NBA, but when I was just a rookie, let alone Lu Yu, even the same rookie Yao Ming who won the No. [-] pick is much better than him.

What troubled him the most was that his former teammate, Boozer, was now Lu Yu's younger brother.

Why?
But when he saw Lu Yu's game, he realized how powerful Lu Yu was.

For him, not only is he unbeatable, he is not even qualified to fight against him.

Distraught, he walked around the room twice, and after playing two games and still losing, he calmed down.

Taking a deep breath, he turned the TV back on.

On the TV screen, the game between the Warriors and the Bulls has just entered the fourth quarter. The score is 81:83, and the Warriors are two points behind.

……

In the third quarter of the game, Lu Yu didn't rest for a minute. He scored 1 points and 17 assists in a single quarter, almost carrying the team forward alone.

The Bulls won so well this way that they almost forgot the old problem.

When faced with a strong interior barrier, it becomes difficult for the Bulls to score inside and can only rely on the outside shooter's hit rate, which will make the game full of surprises.

When the hand feels smooth, the game may be taken away in three quarters.

But when it feels bad like today, the game will continue to stalemate.

The place where we can see improvement is that this year's Boozer and Miller have made the Bulls have some competitiveness in the interior, and will not struggle as much as they played in the finals last season.

The Warriors' score was more difficult. The continuous adjustment of the Bulls' defensive formation brought a lot of trouble to the Warriors. Arenas was also dumbfounded by Lu Yu's shamelessness. I was a tortoise, but this trick was still useful, and I kept the two-point difference until the fourth quarter.

"At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Lu Yu will rest for 3 to 4 minutes." Cartwright looked at Lu Yu, who obviously had a slight physical problem, frowned slightly, and shouted loudly: "Can you help Lu Yu persevere?" Stay here for 4 minutes?"

"can!"

The players shouted loudly.

Cartwright clapped his hands to cheer everyone up. When the players came on the court, his brows were wrinkled. He always had an inexplicable worry in his heart. According to the old and cunning style of Warriors coach Musselman, he would still be at this time. Give the Bulls a last chance to breathe?
Not far away, Musselman was sinking like water, and no one saw him, his eyes glittered with pride.

He's already proud enough to be able to push the league's No. [-] Bulls to this level.

But this is far from enough!
Sure enough, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Yao Ming continued to score on the inside. On the contrary, although the Bulls stepped on Hassel to strengthen the defense on the outside, they also let the offense go out, and the team attacked several times without success. and return.

87:87
The two sides tied.

Only one minute later, the team couldn't hold it anymore. Cartwright resisted the urge to call a timeout. He thought in his heart that he had to trust the players on the field. They were all professional players, and they would definitely be able to make the best adjustments. .

But he forgot that the reason he was able to make adjustments in the past was mainly because of Lu Yu who was sitting off the court.

Arenas once again hit a mid-range shot.

Cartwright looked at the time, barely more than 3 minutes, then glanced at the bench, "Lu, can you come on?"

Lu Yu raised his head, "Yes."

"Are you sure? I don't want your body to go wrong because of a regular season."

"I'm sure."

"it is good."

Cartwright applies for a substitution.

When Lu Yu came on the court, the Bulls were already 9 points behind. Seeing that it was about to reach a double-digit point difference, it was no wonder Cartwright couldn't hold on anymore. God.

Lu Yu took advantage of Boozer's cover to get rid of the defense. As for Murphy, who was making up the defense, with his poor lateral movement speed, Lu Yu quickly threw him behind him with a quick shift.

Warriors Yao Ming was guarding the basket. When he saw Lu Yu breaking through, he sighed inwardly, "This kid is still so fast."

When Lu Yu took off, Yao Ming also jumped up. As the most familiar teammate of the national team, he knew that Lu Yu must be ready to dodge in the air.

"The two aces of our national team have faced each other again. Can Lu Yu score this goal?" Sun Yiping said excitedly.

Lu Yu and Yao Ming collided in midair.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on Lu Yu's side, and Lu Yu even saw from the corner of his eyes that it was Arenas who had been staring at the opportunity.

"After hiding for the whole game, it's time for a showdown!" Arenas shouted.

it's over...

Sun Yiping sighed secretly, it seemed that Lu Yu's ball was doomed.

suddenly,

The ball came out of the gap between Yao Ming and Arenas.

"It's a pass, but Lu Yu didn't make a layup!"

"Hamilton caught the ball and made a three-pointer. It's unbelievable. How did Lu Yu find out about Hamilton? You must know that he was caught by Yao Ming and Arenas. This pass is really beautiful."

Sun Yiping was uncontrollably excited.

After Arenas landed, he looked at Lu Yu who had walked back to the backcourt indifferently. On Lu Yu, he saw the shadows of several organizers in the league.

For Lu Yu, this was just an ordinary assist, and the score——

Still six points away.
