Legendary star

Chapter 599 Meng Hao
"What's the situation? What kind of eyes are you looking at?" The Huaguo men's basketball team and the Lithuanian men's basketball team played less than 3 minutes into the first quarter, and the head coach of the Lithuanian team called a timeout to force Lithuania to advance Calling the "culprit" of this timeout, Meng Xu just walked to the sidelines when he found that on the bench of the Huaguo men's basketball team, from the head coach Jiang Quan to the team's substitutes, they all looked at him strangely.

"Cough, cough...it's nothing." The head coach Jiang Quan, who had already reacted, pretended to cough a few times, and then waved the tactical board to signal the starting players who came down from the field to start arranging tactics after the timeout. .

"Big Zhi, tell me, what is the reason?" Walking to Wang Zhizhi's side, Meng Xu stared at him intently, wanting to know the reason from him. Meng Xu knew Wang Zhizhi very well. He is a liar, so Meng Xu put the breakthrough on Wang Zhizhi, because from the way these guys looked at him just now, Meng Xu knew that something must be wrong with them.

"Actually, it's nothing." Wang Zhizhi originally planned to hide it, but after seeing Meng Xu's unfriendly eyes, he immediately changed his words: "Director Jiang said just now that you are messing around and that you are going to cut you." After finishing, Wang Zhizhi looked at Jiang Quan who was not far away from him with some guilt. After he found that Jiang Quan didn't pay attention to his side, Wang Zhizhi was completely relieved.

"Nonsense?" After hearing Wang Zhizhi's words, Meng Xu was not only not angry, but also amused. He could understand what he did just now. In Popovich's hands, these two coaches must have scolded their heads and covered their faces.

Maybe Jiang Quan also thought about educating Meng Xu, but the result of Meng Xu's nonsense was very gratifying. He made three of four three-pointers and contributed 2 points and 40 assist in the opening 9 minutes and 1 seconds. Lithuania had a small climax of 11 to 6, and the Lithuanian men's basketball team was obviously fooled by Meng Xu's seemingly nonsense shooting method. Three-pointers are Lithuania's strong point, but in today's game, one At the beginning, Lithuania was overwhelmed by Meng Xu's three super long-range three-pointers.

Although the process didn't look very good, the result was very gratifying, so Jiang Quan had to give up his plan to educate Meng Xu, but what Jiang Quan said was now irresistible, and those words were taken away by the bench. All the players heard it, so the embarrassing scene when Meng Xu left the field just now appeared. Perhaps those super long-range three-pointers just now by Meng Xu not only stunned the audience, but even the players on the bench This group of teammates was probably also stunned by Meng Xu.

"Xiao Meng, after the timeout, Lithuania will definitely strengthen its defense against you, and may even double-team you, so once this happens, we need to adjust our offensive tactics." After coming over, Jiang Quan directly gave up arranging tactics and strategies for other players, but began to persuade Meng Xu while writing and drawing on the tactical board.

After talking a lot, Jiang Quan raised his head and glanced at Meng Xu, and found that Meng Xu's expression had not changed. After double-teaming, you can consider giving the basketball to Dayao, and let Dayao share some pressure for you."

Jiang Quan's arrangement is actually very reasonable. Although Jiang Quan told Meng Xu before the start of the game, he hoped that Meng Xu could increase the number of shots. For players at the same level, the average number of shots per game in the first three games was less than 13, which is indeed a bit low. In this game against Lithuania, Jiang Quan was counting on Meng Xu to be freed from the organization to score. But Meng Xu's shooting method just now was not what Jiang Quan wanted to see.

"Don't worry, Director Jiang, I know how to do it."

After the timeout, the Lithuanian men's basketball team really strengthened their defense against Meng Xu. As long as Meng Xu passes the middle circle, Ramnas Siskauskas will stick to the defense, and once Meng Xu starts holding the ball, wait for Meng Xu The most important thing is double teams, so as the game continued to advance, Meng Xu gave up his plan to play singles with the ball at the top of the arc, but took out his old skills and started playing without the ball.

Once Meng Xu took out his off-ball running position, those defensive players in the NBA who are known as "running to death" can only follow Meng Xu's ass to eat dust, not to mention Ramnath Sith, who has an average moving speed Koskas is gone, although Ramnath Siskauskas has a high fighting spirit and a lot of hard work, but when Meng Xu ran away, he had no choice but to count on his teammates to make up for it in time. Guarded.

"Liu Wei, here!" Meng Xu, who was trotting all the way after halftime and gradually accelerated, first used his own speed to throw away Ramnas Siskoskas, and then slipped the bottom line to pass and meet with Yao Ming. The screen in the middle got rid of Sistov Lafrinovich who was defending, maybe it was a problem of vision, Meng Xu stood in the bottom corner for more than two seconds, and Liu Wei didn't even see Meng Xu who was already open , Seeing Sistov Lafrinovich catching up again, Meng Xu ran while shouting loudly at Liu Wei who was still dribbling on the spot at the top of the arc.

"In such a fast speed, Meng Xu got rid of Ramnas Siskauskas who was on the defense. The Lithuanian team's power forward made up for it. Meng Xu slipped to the bottom line. Xu's Lithuanian men's basketball power forward was blocked by Dayao, Meng Xu was already empty, huh? Why is Liu Wei still dribbling in place, Meng Xu left the bottom corner and started to move up, Liu Wei passed the ball, beautiful, Meng Xu Another three-pointer!"

"He hit it again? Isn't this kid's three-pointer too heaven-defying?"

"That's right, this is already the fifth three-pointer he made today? Is it more than our entire team combined?"

"This guy is the three-time NBA three-point leader in a row. It's normal to have a good three-pointer."

"Normal? Sim, if I remember correctly, this guy's hit rate is 8 out of 5 right now! Is this normal? This feeling is simply heaven-defying, okay?"

On the bench of the Lithuanian men's basketball team on the sidelines, a group of Lithuanian men's basketball substitutes were poking their heads and whispering non-stop. Lithuania had done a lot of work in the match against the Huaguo men's basketball team. Xu is well-known now, so everyone from Lithuania's head coach to the team's substitutes has a certain understanding of Meng Xu's tactical style. From the information they have obtained, it can be seen that Meng Xu has a strong three It is not an exaggeration to say that his scoring ability is at the historical level, and Meng Xu's three-point explosive power and endurance are also very strong. In the NBA, he can often make 7 or 8 three-pointers in a single game. Quarters, halftime, the whole game, and even the record of consecutive three-point hits are all kept by Meng Xu, but because Meng Xu has participated in fewer international competitions, most of the national teams have not experienced Meng Xu's record. "Prestige", but unfortunately, it looks like Lithuania is going to have a lesson today.

"Greg, you know Meng very well, do you think we have any way to limit him?" In the stands in the distance, the head coach of the US team, Larry Brown, was taking notes while talking with assistant coach Popovich. Qi discusses how to defend Meng Xu.

The fourth game of the US team's group stage has ended at noon today. After losing to Puerto Rico and Lithuania, the US team currently ranks third in Group B with a record of 2 wins and 2 losses, the same record as the host Greece. At this time, the U.S. team was very embarrassed. Because they lost to Puerto Rico in the first game, the U.S. team had to make sure to win the Huaguo men's basketball team in the last group match, otherwise if Puerto Rico lost in the last group match After defeating Australia in the round, and Lithuania, which has no desires and desires, played tacitly with Greece, then the US team will be eliminated, so after the end of the game with Australia, Larry Brown and Bo Povich, let's watch Lithuania's game against Huaguo men's basketball team.

"I have no other choice but to double-team." Bringing Meng Xu into the NBA, guiding Meng Xu's growth step by step, and after Meng Xu left, Popovich has been paying attention to Meng Xu, no doubt He is one of the coaches who know Meng Xu best, but the more people who know Meng Xu, the more they understand the horror of Meng Xu. It is completely impossible to restrict Meng Xu and prevent Meng Xu from scoring, even in the In the NBA, everyone is thinking about how to reduce Meng Xu's scoring efficiency, how to reduce his number of shots, and how to cut off the connection between him and his teammates.

"Another one, this guy's three-point shooting ability is really terrifying." Meng Xu's three-point shooting method is a step-back jumper. He is very calm and calm when shooting, and Meng Xu is slender when he is in the air. The body shape all give people a feeling of ease, chic and calm, coupled with Meng Xu's current high shooting rate, it makes people more afraid of Meng Xu's three-point ability, even as a bystander Larry Brown? , After seeing Meng Xu hit a three-pointer again, I felt a little terrified, especially Meng Xu's three-pointer that was beyond the distance, in Larry Brown's opinion, it was completely X**D, X**T, but it happened to be able to X**J in the end!

"Lithuania's defensive oppression is very poor, giving Meng too much space to shoot, we need to pay attention to this problem." Frowning, Popovich continued to look at Meng Xu on the court.Although Lithuania has strengthened its defense against Meng Xu, because Meng Xu does not hold the ball, even if he wants to double-team, he has no way to start. However, in one-on-one defense, there is not even a player in the Lithuanian team who can keep up with Meng Xu's footsteps. None, which makes Meng Xu always able to calmly run out of the open space and then shoot. A large number of open shots is actually the root cause of Meng Xu's high shooting rate.

"Oppressive? Maybe we can let LeBron lead him." After hearing Popovich's words, Larry Brown seemed to think of something, and then wrote in his notebook while muttering A paragraph of text was written.

"Meng Xu's three-point shooting percentage in the first quarter was very high. I just made a rough count. In the first quarter, Meng Xu took a total of 10 three-point shots and hit 6 of them. He made 10 of 6 shots. Rate..."During the timeout after the first quarter, the commentators in the CCAV studio began to chat casually. Of course, the content of their chats would basically not deviate from the game. , and Meng Xu, who performed well in the first quarter, naturally became the object of their conversation, and it was Sun Zhengping who spoke first.

"It is said that the three-pointers of the Lithuanian men's basketball team are so good. Looking at today's game, it is actually the same! The Lithuanian team shot a total of 7 three-pointers in the first quarter, hit 3 goals, 7 shots 3 The three-point shooting rate in the game looks very good, but Meng Xu's shooting rate is even more against the sky. The 60% three-point shooting rate is really too bad! Such a heaven-defying touch makes Lithuania How to fight? You can’t fight no matter what!” Zhang Lili is a hardcore Meng Chui, and he has a big mouth, so Zhang Lili’s flattery of Meng Xu has never had a lower limit.

"Defying the sky, how is this defying the sky? This is simply the "day" day!" For today's game, CCAV has arranged a total of three commentators, two of which are naturally Zhang Lili and Sun Li, who have been working together for a long time. Zhengping, as for the remaining one, Han Qiaosheng, who came to play a cameo, Zhang Lili is famous for his outspokenness when explaining the NBA. Once, when Han Qiaosheng uttered the word "day", Zhang Lili was immediately stunned. NM, this is a national live broadcast, you dare to say such a disharmonious word!Seniors are seniors!
"Old Han." Sun Zhengping, who was sitting next to Han Qiaosheng, was immediately stunned when he heard Han Qiaosheng's words, but Sun Zhengping quickly came to his senses and kicked Han Qiaosheng lightly under the table. It's just that even if Sun Zhengping is playing, it's too late now. After today, there will be another sentence in Teacher Han Qiaosheng's classic quotations, and Meng Xu will also have another nickname from now on.

After the second quarter, the Lithuanian men's basketball team played more and more desperately. On the offensive end, after Meng Xu locked up Ramnas Siskauskas, he was able to defend Sarunas Jia by the way. Sikovices alone took care of the two most powerful perimeters in Lithuania. On the defensive end, Meng Xu's three-pointers one after another made Lithuania's hearts cold. In the second half of the second quarter , On the bench of the Lithuanian men's basketball team, a group of players are in a unified posture, supporting their heads with one hand on their thighs, and looking at the field with blank eyes. A nightmare, maybe when they are old, they can still recall the fear of being dominated by the means they are best at from time to time.
