Legendary star

Chapter 322 Mature Meng Xu

"Boy, it's wrong for you to defend me like this. I will get rid of you easily. Didn't Meng teach you how to defend me? You should do this... this way..." Duncan said very He easily defeated Jermaine O'Neal in the jump ball, and then the Spurs' first attack, Duncan misplaced and faced Jermaine O'Neal, but Duncan, who has always been quiet in the game, does not know why. The reason is that he taught Jermaine O'Neal how to defend himself by precept and example.

"Jermaine, don't worry, your defense is fine, even Shaq can't defend him." Just after Duncan succeeded in singles against Jermaine O'Neal, Meng Xu looked at the disappointed and incredible Jermaine O'Neal. He walked directly to his side and patted him on the back. From the moment he walked into the Alamo gymnasium today, Jermaine O'Neill seemed a little nervous. This man has always dreamed of punching Duncan and kicking him. O'Neal's guy became nervous when he was really going to face Duncan, and judging from Jermaine O'Neal's current state, Duncan still hit him very hard this round. "Jermaine, perform well, haven't you been looking forward to this day!"

Although David Robinson's physical condition is getting worse year by year, the Spurs are still the most powerful team inside the league. Lenz, this season can contribute 15 points, 7 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game, while Duncan's data this season has also soared, currently averaging 26.5 points, 14.2 rebounds, and 3.1 blocks per game. Frentz's inside combination is not inferior to the combination of David Robinson + Duncan in previous seasons.Therefore, this season, the Spurs have picked up the twin-tower tactics again. Relying on the outstanding performance of Duncan and Riff LaFrentz, the Spurs have built the strongest defensive system in the entire league. Although the team's overall record is not as good as last year, but It is currently ranked third in the West after the Kings and the Lakers.

On the other hand, the Pacers, the combination of Jermaine O'Neal and James Posey is definitely the bottom of all 29 teams in the entire league. James Posey will not say, although he can defend from the 1st position to the 4th position, He can also defend well, but he is a small forward and guard swingman after all. As a guest power forward, he has absolutely no advantage in terms of height, weight, or even strength once he meets a power forward like Duncan.The only orthodox insider for the Pacers now is Jermaine O'Neal. Jermaine O'Neal has been a talented player since high school, otherwise he would not have been a high school player and ranked 96th in the star-studded first round of 17. He was selected, but Jermaine O'Neal, who was in the same class as Kobe Iverson, wasted too much time in the Trail Blazers. He played for the Trail Blazers for 4 seasons, and his playing time was not as much as that of the Pacers last season. Therefore, Jermaine O'Neal, who has been in the league for 5 years now, is still very lacking in game experience, and his current ability has not increased much compared to when he entered the league.

"Meng, don't worry, I won't let him score so easily next time." Duncan's strength is well known, and with Jermaine O'Neal's current strength, defeating him is tantamount to It's a dream, but Jermaine O'Neal, who has always aimed to defeat Duncan O'Neal, naturally knows what defensive methods to use to make their scoring more difficult.

"Come on." After giving Jermaine O'Neal a thumbs up, Meng Xu accelerated and ran towards the front court.Although this game has just started, it can be seen that the Spurs are still very well prepared to limit the Pacers' fast break. Just after Duncan made a single hit, Bruce Bowen immediately posted Meng Xu, and Tony Parker Jamal Tinsley was also found very quickly. As long as Meng Xu and Jamal Tinsley were watched, the Pacers would not be able to play fast breaks.The Spurs have always been a slow-paced team with traditional positional warfare, as did the Pacers in the past, but the Pacers this season are already very similar to a team with small ball tactics, and the Pacers' fast break points this season It has always been ranked at the forefront of the league, so Popovich's tactic against the Pacers is also very simple, that is, to slow them down. As long as the Pacers slow down and play a positional battle with the Spurs, then they basically have no hope of winning .

In the Pacers' first offense, Jamal Tinsley handed the ball to Meng Xu immediately, while Jermaine O'Neal was hovering near the free throw line, waiting to pick and roll for Meng Xu. West, Reggie Miller and Jamal Tinsley, the three of them are doing seemingly chaotic running back and forth, and constantly cutting in. This is also the Pacers' usual tactics this season. An inside fulcrum, Meng Xu Add a group of shooters who can shoot well.

"Bruce, don't you think you're a little too tight? My sexual orientation is very normal." Meng Xu stood at the top of the arc with the ball and turned sideways to Bruce Bowen who was defending him. This guy's small movements are comparable to his own There were so many, and it was very hidden. Just as Meng Xu slapped the basketball, he felt a pain in his waist.

"It seems that facial paralysis is contagious." Looking at Bruce Bowen, who was still expressionless and silent, Meng Xu glanced at Duncan and Riff LaFrentz near the basket. Under the circumstances, the Spurs are now becoming more and more face-faced. The few starters on the field, and even the players on the bench, all look very serious.

"A very beautiful pick-and-roll. Jermaine O'Neal blocked Bruce Bowen behind him, and Meng Xu rushed towards the basket." It has become a tactic that the Pacers often use. Relying on the pick-and-roll with Jermaine O'Neal, Meng Xu can choose the next offensive option more easily, whether it is an outside shot after the pick-and-roll, or a breakthrough inside, or a shot. The ball is passed back to Jermaine O'Neal, and Meng Xu can be more relaxed on the offensive end.

"Very beautiful breakthrough, Meng Xu got rid of Steve Smith, Duncan came out, Meng Xu directly faced Duncan, he didn't continue to break through, but passed the ball back to Reggie Miller, Ray at the top of the arc Kimmeler is unguarded."

"Larry, Meng's style of play is becoming more and more mature now." Lester Conor, who was on the sidelines, saw Meng Xu who had entered the paint area, and instead of going heads-up with Duncan, he handed the ball to Compared with the teammate who had an open chance, this was a world of difference from Meng Xu, who had nothing but scoring in his eyes at the beginning of the season.

"Everyone will have a growth process. Wasn't Jordan like this back then? Meng was able to go through this process so quickly, which was beyond my expectation." Meng Xu's performance at the beginning of this season, Larry Bo In fact, Germany had expected it long ago. Meng Xu deliberately suppressed his desire to attack in the Spurs. After leaving Duncan, Meng Xu will definitely release his desire to attack. Before the start of the season, Meng Xu told himself that he wanted to win the scoring champion. A very obvious signal, but what Larry Bird did not expect is that since Meng Xu scored 13+ in 30 consecutive games at the beginning of this season, Meng Xu has gradually changed his style of play, and the cooperation with his teammates has also improved. More and more, but at critical moments, Meng Xu will still come by himself.
