The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master.

Chapter 252 A wave of flow! (superior)

The U.S. team's performance has returned to normal, but the overall performance of the Dragon Kingdom is still somewhat dwarfed.

As Yi Jianlian missed another 3-pointer, Tang Zhengdong, who was under the basket, lost another rebound under the double-teaming of LeBron and Kaman, and then the US team counterattacked with a fast break.

At this time, the United States has already mastered the game. If it is purely about fast attack and fast pace, it may be easy for Lin Dong to catch the pigtails.

But the counter-attack fast break is different. With the overall speed of the Dragon Kingdom team being inferior, the US team's counter-attack fast break is now almost guaranteed to succeed in every game.

LeBron took the rebound and threw it to Wade.

Wade held the ball in one line, attracting Zhu Fangyu's cover in the midfield and passing directly until he was caught up by Lin Dong at the three-point line.

Wade paused for a moment and pulled Lin Dong for a moment. Although he couldn't get away, the help was there at this time. Wade pulled and threw the ball high toward the basket, and LeBron followed closely. It was an alley-oop. Its powerful impact and absolute height made Sun Yue, who also jumped to block it, somewhat redundant.

boom!

After an alley-oop dunk, Sun Yue panted and took several big steps back when he landed. Still unable to stop his retreat, he sat down on the ground. LeBron, on the other hand, hung on to the rim as if he were dominating the world. Jump off.

The ball goes in.

27 flat! End of the first quarter!

LeBron could no longer suppress the suppressed emotions in his heart. At this moment, he even wanted to cry.

In the past half month... no, in the past two months, he has been so frustrated!

Doubts from all sides, ridicule on the Internet, and even a few days ago, even a Japanese who didn't know the so-called dared to hang on his head to shit.

Even I have deep doubts about myself.

Is it true that I can't do it? Are you really a noob?

Do not!

All this is because of that Lin Dong! It was Lin Dong who ruined his mentality and put huge pressure on himself, so that he couldn't even handle a Japanese redhead!

And now, when I have 13 points and 4 rebounds in a single quarter, compared to the other guy's 9 points and a few assists in a single quarter; when I lead the U.S. team to fall behind by 10 points, it takes most of the quarter to recover the lost points. ; When he made the entire arena shut up with perfect alley-oops again and again.

Back... finally back!

LeBron felt a long-lost confidence return to him again.

I! He is the real king!

"Ho! Come on! Lin!"

LeBron roared fiercely at Lin Dong, declaring his return as the king and shouting out the dominance of the US team as the king!

The footage broadcast by all parties recorded this scene wonderfully. For a while, all parties had different reactions.

Director Sun from CCTV naturally laughed and said things like "Young people are bloody".

The Japanese media are not so gentle. Americans can provoke Japanese players, but they must not provoke Lin Dong!

This is a taboo. The "60 billion most powerful man" boasted by Japan is not for you to slap the Japanese in the face.

So the two commentators were all in a weird fight. Speaking of the first half, the two actually had no direct confrontation. The difference in data was just the division of labor. They even used the phrase "I can't guard Lin Dong". Golden sentence.

On the other side of the ocean, this domineering scene, combined with the seemingly winning data, finally gave LeBron fans a long-lost climax.

LeBron fans were jubilant, elated and elated. Although the occasional hasty posts on the Internet were drowned out by "I can't guard Dong Lin", it did not affect their beliefs.

They firmly believe that this is just because real fans are still watching the game and have no time to pay attention to the Internet to retaliate, which makes them appear weak.

When the competition is over, let's see how stubborn those idiots who kneel and lick Asians are!

And the competition scene at this time...

During the short break, Long Guo's bench did not have the disappointment and frustration of being tied as others imagined.

"...The tactics for the second quarter will be based on this point first." Director Jiang put away the tactical board and said: "Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, and Zhu Fangyu are down, Wang Lei, Mo Ke, and Zhang Qingpeng are up!"

In the large-scale formation change of three up and three down, Wang Lei and Moko are obviously far inferior to the former on the outside, and their movement speed is also slower, but if they want to be faster than the Americans, they can't compete under normal circumstances. This is to deal with the American team. The second lineup is a three-tower tactic of digging inside to suppress the rhythm.

Although Wang Lei and Moko are not as talented as Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue, they have entered the CBA after all. They have rich experience in the basket and have begun to gain muscle. The tonnage is there to compete with this young American team in the interior. It's not a disadvantage.

Of course, this alone is not enough.

Everyone may have thought that the Dragon Kingdom's strategy was to wait until the fourth quarter for Lin Dong to take over the game. Chuck Daly's unique skills against the 'super giant' were most likely to be used until then.

But Lin Dong wouldn't do it, and neither would Director Jiang, to fulfill his opponent's wish and go to the decisive battle location arranged by his opponent.

If there is an invincible tactic in this world, there is one and only one - disrupt your opponent's rhythm and never play according to common sense!

This U.S. national youth team is very strong, and will get even stronger once it gets going. In the first quarter, they relied on a dream start to slow down the rhythm, and now that they have tied the score, it is the point where they are going to get going.

Then strangle them here.

When the assignment was completed, Director Jiang and Lin Dong looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.

"The pigs are fattened and ready to be killed!"

"One wave of flow!"

beep!

The second quarter begins.

Dragon Kingdom’s possession of the ball.

The newly replaced three-tower insider obviously caught the American team by surprise.

When the three big men Tang Zhengdong, Wang Lei, and Moko all squeezed into the inside, the American team suddenly discovered the emptiness on the outside.

Lin Dong took a feint and suddenly accelerated to the left side of the empty three-point arc. When Bosh was mobilized to move horizontally with all his strength, he suddenly stopped and took off to shoot a three-pointer.

The empty outside line not only greatly increased Lin Dong's attack points, but also caused Bosh to lose any room to make up for any mistakes. There was no help from his teammates in this position, but his center of gravity was slightly swayed and his feet were slow. It was only one step, but he could only watch Lin Dong's jump shot without causing any interference.

Swish!

3 points scored, 30:27.

Chuck Daly's heart skipped a beat. Was he planning to let Lin Dong start the main attack? But this is only the second quarter...

No.

Chuck Daly frowned. Although Lin Dong was very strong in physical strength and will, Chuck Daly didn't believe him if he handed over all the team's scoring tasks to him alone from the beginning of the second quarter. He can also maintain a high shooting percentage throughout the game until the end of the game.

This approach is tantamount to killing the goose that lays the egg!

Looking at the formation of the Dragon Kingdom at this time, the lineup of big men in the three towers clearly wants Lin Dong to attack from the outside, forcing the US team's insiders to go out to help defend, resulting in a 3-on-2 Dragon Kingdom under the basket. The advantageous situation is just to ensure the success rate of scoring goals. This is just bait, don’t worry about it, just follow the previous rhythm, it doesn’t matter even if you lose two or three three-pointers, you can’t let the opponent lead you away...

Before Chuck Daly finished thinking about this, he saw that Long Guo also had changes in defense.

The original 212 zone defense was abandoned and replaced by a 23-match zone defense.

The iron triangle formed by Tang Zhengdong, Wang Lei and Moko contracted very tightly in the paint and surrounded Kaman. This was obviously to protect the board.

On the outside, Lin Dong and Zhang Qingpeng, the new force who just came on the field, are in the corner positions, defending three-pointers on the left and right sides.

Lin Dong's position is slightly more central. TJ Ford has just come over with the ball, and Zhang Qingpeng's pressing has already caught up.

As a substitute point guard who had not played frequently in games before, Zhang Qingpeng's scoring ability is far inferior to that of later generations when he became the first point guard in the CBA. His 3-point shooting from the outside was sometimes spotty, but he was able to score from Liaoning's second team. Zhang Qingpeng still has two unique skills, that is, he is very tough defense compared to young players.

With flexible feet and a certain degree of confrontation, it is not necessary to bully other members of the US team, but it is no problem to bully the shortest TJ Ford with this physical confrontation. This is also what Long Guo used to face TJ Ford in this tactical link. The best candidate.

——With the existence of three towers inside, you don’t have to worry about his breakthrough. If he breaks in, there will be no space for him to attack. Block his shooting and interfere with his passing to the right. That’s all your tasks!

This is to block TJ Ford's outside and right pass.

For this rare opportunity to perform, Zhang Qingpeng also worked hard with all his strength.

In the past two months in the team, I have specialized in this set of tactics and learned a set of death coil defense from Lin Dong. Although it does not have the charm of Lin Dong, it at least looks decent, plus the advantage of height and wingspan. , which is completely sufficient at this time.

TJ Ford pulled two rounds and felt a bit stuck.

It is easy to break through, but when the inside is crowded, it is useless to break in. The three-pointer is tightly blocked by the opponent, and there is no room for shooting. Wade is also being guarded by Lin Dong. If you upload it, I'm afraid it will have the same result.

Just follow Wade's example and throw a high ball inside.

Coach Jiang clenched his fists on the sidelines. Whether this tactic can work or not depends entirely on the pressure and competition inside. As long as the first ball is opened, everything else will be easy to handle!

Tang Zhengdong and the other three obviously understood the importance of this ball.

In terms of talent, frankly speaking, the Dragons' domestic trio cannot catch up with the combination of LeBron and Bosh Gakaman, but the advantage is age...

Tang Zhengdong and Moko were both insiders in 81, and had gone through professional training in the CBA. They had gained muscle mass and had already developed into a complete state. Even the relatively weaker and younger Wang Lei, who is 200 centimeters tall, But it weighs 95 kilograms, so at least the tonnage is enough.

In a mobile battle, you will definitely not be able to defeat the three opponents, but when it comes to positional battle...

One person per person at this time!

Tang Zhengdong suppressed Kaman and blocked him tightly, while Moko used his body to squeeze the thin Bosh. Wang Lei seemed to be a relative loophole, as if he had become a foil to LeBron's weakness.

Six people were fighting for the ball's placement, but judging from the advantageous position, it was two to one. But even so, with several people jumping at the same time, LeBron still got the ball.

Although the mutual interference prevented the ball from immediately attacking, a surge of pride still surged out of LeBron's heart. Since the start of the first quarter, he felt that everything on the court was getting smoother and smoother. ! Even the opponent gives face like this and is always assigned the weakest matchup position...

The word "position" hadn't even finished running through his mind when he was struck by a big hand the moment he landed on the ground.

"LeBron!"

Fortunately, with Wade's timely reminder, LeBron saw the figure speeding towards him in advance.

It's that sneaky guy again!

LeBron was shocked and angry. Lin Dong cut in too fast and pinched too accurately, leaving LeBron with too little time to react. He subconsciously held the ball with both hands and pulled it back hard.

boom!

A big elbow hit Wang Lei, who was next to him, hard on the face.

This elbow was so powerful that Wang Lei was hit so hard that stars appeared in his eyes and he looked up and fell.

beep!

"Flagrant foul! Two free throws and one throw!"

This elbow swing is indeed a bit too careless and too rough... If it were an adult competition of FIBA, a dangerous move made under the consciousness of protecting the ball might not be called a foul, but after all, this is a youth In the eyes of FIBA, the protection of young players is more important than the outcome and the game itself, so the scale of whistleblowing is relatively tight. This is why Chuck Daly did not dare to use the 'Jordan Law' to deal with Lin from the very beginning. The main reason for this.

At the same time as the referee's whistle sounded, Lin Dong and other nearby teammates hurried forward to check Wang Lei's condition. They saw that his left cheek was red. When Lin Dong helped him stand up, he regained consciousness for at least two or three seconds. He chewed it in his mouth and spit out a bloody tooth.

"Fuck!" Zhu Fangyu from the sidelines almost rushed forward, but luckily he was grabbed by Director Jiang.

Wang Lei seemed to have recovered a lot of consciousness.

He is the bait in this tactical session, seducing LeBron, who has already used the first quarter to gain confidence.

——LeBron is more accustomed to playing downwind games. His ball control and vigilance are not strong. My steal is just the first pass, and your steal is the backhand.

He originally planned to steal with his backhand, so he got closer, but he didn't expect to receive an elbow, but...

"Hey!" A smile appeared on Wang Lei's face, and he winked at Lin Dong: "As long as the effect is the same!"

LeBron's face was a bit livid at this time. He clearly had no malicious intentions in the ball just now. It was just a foul to change the ball. It was a bit too serious to call him a violation.

The result of the appeal only gave Wang Lei two more minutes of rest time, and the referee's bench upheld the original decision.

After taking a short rest, Wang Lei made two free throws and the score reached 32:27.

"It's okay, let's guard against one first!" Chuck Daly clapped his hands on the sidelines to encourage morale. He felt that there was nothing wrong with LeBron in the ball just now, but it actually helped him test out some of the referee's penalty standards.

It's not all bad...

Before he could finish his thoughts, Chuck Daly's thoughts suddenly froze. He saw Lin Dong, who was walking past the midline with the ball in a scattered manner. Bosh was still three steps away, and he suddenly stood up and shot.

That position is at least two meters away from the three-point line in the international arena. Even the three-point line in the NBA arena is one meter away.

But this... you vote now?

Chuck Daly's mouth was open, and Bosh's mouth was also open over there. He was three or four steps away, and he didn't even have the desire to pounce. He just turned his head and looked towards the basket.

Swish!

The ball goes in.

35: 27!
