Chapter 1250 People Around Superstar

"Bang!"

A dunk, the audience cheered.

The ball was very beautiful. Xiang Long broke through, turned around, and dunked. The whole action was completed in one go, and both Middleton and Lopez were fooled.

Seeing the ball, Coach Spoelstra couldn't help showing a smile, and Xiang Long began to take the initiative to ask for the ball, and he attacked very resolutely.

That's good, everyone around Antetokounmpo on the Bucks side has stood up, and Xiang Long on his side must also stand up.

The game continues.

Xiang Long increased his personal offense, and used the pick-and-roll with Meng Yun to open Antetokounmpo, because Xiang Long still suffered a bit in singles against Antetokounmpo, and could only rely on outside shooting. Kumbo, Antetokounmpo is also physically disadvantaged in low-post singles. It is obviously not enough to rely on outside shooting.

So Antetokounmpo needs to be transferred.

Meng Yun is fast, and can shoot and shoot. Once he picks and rolls, the Bucks have to switch defenses, otherwise it will be too late to stop. Meng Yun will either break through or shoot a three-pointer, which is too threatening.

Xiang Long stepped forward to pick and roll and blocked Middleton. At this time, Antetokounmpo had to leave Xiang Long and rush to Meng Yun. Meng Yun passed the ball back and Xiang Long formed a single.

Facing Middleton Xianglong still has some advantages. Height and weight are advantages. Even shooting does not need to be as fearful as facing Antetokounmpo.

Seeing that Xiang Long pulled to a low position, took a step forward, and then suddenly half-turned and turned into a back-up single. Middleton was awe-inspiring and quickly stuck up, and Lopez behind him was always ready to pounce.

But at this moment, Xiang Long suddenly turned over and made a jump shot. Middleton jumped up quickly, but he was hit by Xiang Long's back before, and with the height difference, he still couldn't block the shot.

Swish!
With a soft sound, the basketball was hollowed into the net.

"nice shot."

Heat fans cheer.

The head coach of the Bucks is frowning. It's not that he didn't consider Xiang Long. In fact, he had already considered it. He expected that Xiang Long might stand up and become the team's second scoring point.

He stepped forward and gestured to the players.

The Bucks players understood and strengthened their defense against Xiang Long, but the effect was not good, because the Heat had Meng Yun on their side. If Xiang Long restrained too much defense, it would be difficult to defend against Meng Yun.

And
"Co-defense."

Seeing Xiang Long's singles play, the Bucks quickly assisted in the defense. Xiang Long gave the ball to Meng Yun, and Meng Yun took the ball to make a breakthrough.

"Shrink, surround him!"

The Bucks were not slow to react, as if they had expected it a long time ago, and quickly shrank the defense line. A few players seemed to be in an open circle before, and there seemed to be a gap because of the defense against Xianglong.At this moment, the gap closed to form a complete circle, and Meng Yun was surrounded by it. When he jumped up, several hands stretched out towards the basketball at the same time.

"No, this is a trap."

"Damn it, they knew that Xiang Long would pass to Meng Yun, and the Bucks' defense was restrained by Xiang Long, especially when the inside line was pulled to the outside, Meng Yun would definitely break through, so they dug a hole on purpose, and Xiang Long's defense was fake Yes, make a trap for Meng Yun, and it will be true when Meng Yun gets in."

"It's over, it's surrounded."

People sighed, feeling that Meng Yun was finished and made a mistake.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, and saw an orange basketball flying out of the crowd, towards the right corner beyond the three-point line, and outside the bottom corner three-point line, Xiang Long was waiting there, and there was no one in front of him .

"not good."

"Damn it, how did he spread it? How did he know where Xiang Long was?"

The Bucks fans were anxious and only prayed that the goal would not be scored.

Swish!
A soft sound made the Bucks fans helpless. Xiang Long made a three-pointer.

The head coach of the Bucks looked at the Bucks players with a dark face. Lopez and Antetokounmpo also looked at the outside players. They were inside and surrounded Meng Yun just now.

The outside players were also very helpless, Xiang Long did not return to the top of the arc, or the sides, but ran to the right corner outside the three-point line, which is not where Xiang Long usually stays.

In fact, the bottom corners on both sides are positions that any inside player does not often stay in. Even when the Cavaliers almost became a three-point shooter, Love was rarely in the bottom corners. Most of them were at 45 degrees or so on both sides. The 45-degree position is the same for Xiang Long. The top of the arc and [-] degrees on the left and right sides are his favorite three-point positions.

But this time he went to the bottom corner on the right, so the outside players of the Bucks couldn't help it, because the distance was a bit far, and they didn't expect Xiang Long to go to the bottom corner.

Also, how does Meng Yun know where Xiang Long is?
"Hehe." Coach Spoelstra laughed, "This is the tacit understanding between Meng Yun and Xiang Long. They don't need to speak, or even gestures. They only need a look, and they can understand each other's meaning." .”

Rostern quickly took a good look at Xiang Long, treated Xiang Long differently, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect this time to be the three-point line from the bottom corner on the right. This is not the position Xiang Long is used to, but the most important thing is to shoot. in."

Craig opened his mouth and said, "The bottom corners on the left and right sides are just his inaccurate positions, and it's not that he can't shoot. What's more, there is a characteristic in Xiang Long. The more critical the moment is, the more he can make the shot, even if It is some balls that are usually not well grasped, but this time the hit rate is higher.”

"Yes." Coach Spoelstra nodded: "You are right. Compared with other players, Xiang Long's physical talent is not the best, but he works hard enough. Besides hard work, I What I like is that there are some qualities in him that others don't have."

"Talent? Talent is not just physical talent, there are others."

"Physical talent can determine a player's floor, but other things are the key to determine how high a player's ceiling is."

Hearing this, Craig and Rostern nodded in agreement.

There are too many players with excellent physical fitness in the nba. Physical talent is the most basic thing for them, and it is not only the body that can truly become a superstar.

The so-called so-and-so star players rely on physical talent to play is completely nonsense. If you pick someone out in the CBA and give him an NBA-level body, he can play in the NBA?

on the field.

The game continues.

Meng Yun also reduced his individual singles and gave Xiang Long more opportunities to play. The Bucks are doing this, and the Heat are doing the same. If Middleton, Bledsoe and others can stand up and give Antetokounmpo Bo's help and support, but not on the Heat's side, so one can imagine the situation.

Xiang Long did not disappoint. After the first round of repairs, he returned to the peak in terms of physical fitness and competitive state. He scored several goals in a row, helping the Heat to overtake the score and regain the lead.

The third quarter ended quickly. With Meng Yun's final buzzer shot, the Heat led by 3 points.
