Chapter 1263 Head-to-head confrontation with Antetokounmpo
"Pull it away, pull it all away." Lu Wei shouted loudly.

Everyone on the Heat pulled away, and the Bucks didn't dare to double-team Meng Yun rashly, because Lu Wei and others felt very good today, especially on the outside, very sharp. As long as they leave the others to double-team Meng Yun, Meng Yun The ball will be distributed immediately, allowing the rest of the Heat to get a chance.

So even if you know that the Heat are pulling away to let Meng Yun play singles, you also know that it is difficult to stop Meng Yun, but the Bucks have no choice but Middleton to go forward and block Meng Yun.

"Come on." Middleton growled, cheering himself up, but he felt a little guilty in his heart, and he was more or less sure to guard against it.

The next moment, Meng Yun started, dribbled the ball from his crotch, and the basketball changed from his right hand to his left hand, then suddenly changed direction, leaned his body to the left, and broke through from the left.

Middleton moved quickly and got stuck first, but unexpectedly, Meng Yun made a reverse crotch dribble, pulled the basketball back, and at the same time touched the ground with his toes, and quickly retreated.

"Not good." Middleton's heart was shocked, and he felt that he was about to suffer, so he rushed forward.

However, at this moment, Meng Yun suddenly lowered his center of gravity, accelerated again, and broke through from the right. Middleton was in a mess for a while, staggered, tripped himself, and fell to the floor.

There was an exclamation in the audience.

Meng Yun glanced at Middleton, didn't stop, rushed past Middleton, and then scored a layup and scored two more points.

"This ball is beautiful."

"Middleton was knocked over."

"Unfortunately, Meng Yun should dunk"

The fans were talking and admiring.

Although it is a bit regrettable that Meng Yun did not end the attack with a dunk, it was a good scene to knock Middleton down, which made people applaud.

Middleton got up, feeling a little lonely. Facing Meng Yun, he was really helpless. He couldn't keep up with the speed, and he didn't have an advantage in other aspects. It can be said that he was restrained everywhere.

"I'll replace you later." A voice sounded beside me.

Middleton was surprised, knowing it was Antetokounmpo, he shook his head quickly: "This is not good, you have to focus on offense."

Antetokounmpo sighed: "But if you can't limit Meng Yun, it's hard to chase points even if you play well on the offensive end, isn't it?"

Middleton was speechless.

If Meng Yun cannot be restricted, even if the Bucks score on the offensive end, the two sides will just exchange one goal and cancel each other out. How can the point difference be narrowed?
If you want to narrow the point difference and catch up with the score, you must first defend and prevent the Heat from scoring, and then seek to score the ball on the offensive end.

This is why there is always a saying of "defense based" on the court, especially when the score is behind. If there is no defense, you score and others score. What's the use of shrinking the difference?

"Okay." Middleton finally nodded in agreement.

Antetokounmpo didn't speak, and ran forward, feeling very worried. It might not be very effective to defend Meng Yun by himself. The reason why he chose to do this was to see if Middleton could defend. Living in Meng Yun, today's situation is not very good for double-teaming, so I can only try it myself; secondly, judging from today's situation, it may be extremely difficult to win. Instead of playing like this and finally losing, it is better to fight. Give it a go.

Soon, when Meng Yun took the ball on the offensive end, the defender in front of him was replaced by Antetokounmpo.

This is not the arrangement of the head coach of the Bucks. Seeing this situation, the head coach of the Bucks frowned and his face darkened, but in the end he sighed sadly and said nothing.

"Giannis against Meng Yun?"

"Is this going to be a direct match?"

"Okay, it's time for Giannis to defend Meng Yun. It must be more effective than Middleton. Giannis has height, wingspan, fast movement, and good bounce. He will definitely be able to restrain Meng Yun."

Some fans applauded, their eyes lit up.

Looking at Antetokounmpo in front of him, Meng Yun narrowed his eyes. This is a direct confrontation between the two sides. In this case, the meaning is not simply offensive and defensive, but also affects the morale of both sides.

At times like this, there is no room for backing down.

"Brother Antetokounmpo is tall and has long arms. He has advantages in height and some advantages in confrontation, but after all, he is tall and has a high center of gravity, so his speed is not as good as mine." Meng Yun thought to himself, already making plans.

Antetokounmpo lowered his center of gravity, looked solemn, stared at Meng Yun's shoulders, and thought in his heart: "His speed is too fast, and it is difficult for me to prevent him from breaking through one-on-one. I can only do my best." To keep up with him, and to prevent him from shooting outside."

Both sides are very aware of each other's characteristics, and there is no words or temptations at the moment, and it will be a real fight immediately.

laugh!
Meng Yun started without changing direction, just a simple acceleration, because Antetokounmpo is tall and long, but he is different from the general inside line. Like Lopez, his defensive center of gravity is difficult to suppress. The common problem of tall players, coupled with slow lateral movement, makes it difficult for defenders to block a crossover facing them.

However, although Antetokounmpo is tall and has long arms, he has a strong body and excellent coordination. His center of gravity is lower than that of ordinary inside players. Very good efficiency.

Therefore, Meng Yun did not choose breakthroughs such as crossovers, because Antetokounmpo's horizontal defensive range is too large, and crossovers require a lot of range, which consumes time and wastes Meng Yun's speed.

So Meng Yun accelerated directly, taking advantage of the fact that Antetokounmpo's center of gravity is not as low as the defender's after all, and on the defensive end, he is slipping backwards, so it is difficult for Meng Yun to be fast.

"Not good." Antetokounmpo's heart jumped. He made all kinds of preparations to face Meng Yun's breakthrough, but he didn't expect Meng Yun to be so simple and direct. Feeling a gust of wind passing by, Meng Yun had already passed by.

Although Meng Yun broke through, Antetokounmpo did not give up, but immediately turned around and started chasing, looking for opportunities to chase and block.

Meng Yun is fast, while Antetokounmpo has big steps. If he runs for a long distance, Antetokounmpo is definitely not Meng Yun's opponent. He will be thrown away in a few steps, but short-distance movement, big steps can take advantage , So although Meng Yun broke through, Antetokounmpo did not completely lose his defensive position, and fell tightly behind Meng Yun.

The fans who watched this scene screamed again and again. They didn't expect Meng Yun to pass Antetokounmpo with a single acceleration without any fancy. They also didn't expect Antetokounmpo to react so quickly. Although he was passed, he immediately passed Antetokounmpo. The pursuit seems to have the meaning of giving Meng Yun a chase and block.
