king of defenders

Chapter 1391
"beep"

The whistle blows and the game begins.

The Bulls' starting lineup is center Markkanen, power forward Wendell Carter, small forward Chandler Hutchison, shooting guard LaVine, and point guard Paul.

Among the starting players, LaVine is a 14 rookie, Markkanen is a 17-year rookie, and Carter and Hutchison are 18-year rookies, which shows the youngness of the Bulls lineup.

The first is the jump ball. Markkanen won the jump ball. Paul advanced with the ball. After Meng Yun came to the frontcourt, Paul stepped forward. Paul was not in a hurry.

LaVine moved along the inside lane and circled the inside lane.

At the same time, Hutchison ran from the right 45-degree angle to the right bottom corner, and Paul passed the ball to Hutchison.

At this time, LaVine shook off the defender and ran to the right outside the 45-degree three-point line. Paul yelled at Hutchison. Hutchison paused and did not pass the ball to LaVine, but to the Insider.

"Not good." Meng Yun yelled secretly, and quickly reminded, "Be careful inside."

Only then did the Nets react. Both Noel and Young on the inside chased out, one was taken to the left by Carter, and the other chased LaVine. At this moment, the inside was empty.

However, Markkanen was still inside, and Hutcherson passed the ball into the inside and gave it to Markkanen. After reaching the ball, it was a layup, which easily scored two points for the Bulls.

"Sure enough, after Paul joined, the Bulls played much more mature and reasonable than before." Meng Yun raised his eyebrows. He noticed Hutchison's movement just now, and after LaVine made a circle along the inside line, he came to the right When he was outside the [-]-degree three-point line, Hutchison was going to pass to LaVine, but Paul reminded him that he passed the ball to the inside and assisted Markkanen to score an easy layup.

In fact, if you take a look at the Bulls' offense, you will find that Paul's role is not only reflected in reminding Hutchison at the end, it should be that from the beginning Paul did not plan to let LaVine end the offense. From the beginning he aimed for the inside.

"LaVine is the star of the Bulls. Paul knows our attention will be on him, and I am also on the outside. LaVine circles inside, catches Markkanen's screen and throws off Harry who defends him. Adams, but when he comes to the three-point line and catches the ball, I can still jump in time."

"So, LaVine's chances are actually not very good. He can catch the ball and shoot directly. It is not easy for me to block him, but with my speed, bounce and height, it is possible to interfere. For him The shooting will be affected." Meng Yun looked at Paul, "Paul knows this, and he also knows that our inside has no advantage, so it is a good choice to start from the inside."

These are just speculations, but Meng Yun believes that there will not be a big difference from the facts.

Meng Yun and Paul have a very good personal relationship, they have had a lot of contact, and they have played against each other a lot, and they have a good understanding of Paul. What's more, if he thinks from Paul's point of view, he will think so.

In fact, Meng Yun's guess was indeed correct. Paul aimed at the inside line from the very beginning, but he looked at Markkanen and shook his head secretly: "It's still too young, why didn't this ball dunk? Dunk shouldn't be Dunk when you want to dunk, but when you should dunk. Markkanen can dunk the ball just now. If it is a dunk, it is equivalent to giving the Nets a blow, but he chose to layup."

Although both layups and dunks are two points, in fact, the effects are different in many cases.

Markkanen didn't think so much because he was still very young, but Paul thought about it because he was experienced and because he was the brain of the team, not only considering the tactical level, but also the strategic level.

The Bulls fans in the auditorium were cheering. Not many people went deep into what was hidden under the surface of the ball. The Nets sent a baseline ball and quickly launched a counterattack.

Meng Yun came to the frontcourt. Paul stepped forward, raised one hand and put the other down. He was neither far nor close to Meng Yun. He was very experienced in defense, but he still gestured to his teammates to signal Teammates are always ready to help and supplement defense.

Although Paul is not tall, his defense is very good. He has been selected to the best defensive team many times. There is still a big gap in the decline compared with Meng Yunlai, so even if he has rich experience and excellent awareness, Paul still has little confidence in defending Meng Yun alone.

Just like letting him defend James alone, the innate physical gap is too large, which is tantamount to misplaced defense, and no matter how good the defensive skills are, it is useless.

And Meng Yun can be regarded as a misplacement when facing anyone!
Whoosh!
Meng Yun suddenly started, a change of direction, the ball was given from the right hand to the left hand, he is tall and long arms, the change of direction is very large, the most important thing is that the speed is extremely fast, Paul was mentally prepared, and immediately adjusted the center of gravity, but Meng Yun suddenly Another shot of the ball, the basketball returned from the left hand to the right hand.

Paul quickly adjusted his center of gravity, but Meng Yun's speed was too fast, and the two consecutive changes of direction were almost completed in the blink of an eye. Before Paul adjusted his center of gravity, he had already accelerated and rushed past Paul.

The other Bulls players had already prepared for this, and someone rushed over immediately to block Meng Yun's breakthrough route.

This is to force Meng Yun to pass the ball. As long as Meng Yun passes the ball and delays for a while, Paul can come back and the Bulls can readjust their defense.

However, Meng Yun didn't pass the ball, nor did he stop. With a flick of his wrist, the basketball passed through Carter's crotch. Carter was taken aback and subconsciously went to catch the ball. However, he immediately reacted when he was about to take action, and quickly raised his head. Seeing a flash in front of his eyes, Meng Yun seemed to have shifted shape, and he had already arrived at his side.

Swish.

Because the basketball had already been shot, Meng Yun didn't have the basketball in his hand, so he moved more flexibly. He passed by Carter in a flash, and just as the basketball bounced, Meng Yun grabbed the basketball, bent his knees, and jumped up lightly, but his arms were already beyond He touched the basket a lot, grabbed the basketball with his right hand, and slammed a dunk.

In the auditorium, the fans were stunned.

"How is this going?"

"Why did it pass in one go, how did the ball pass?"

Because the ball was so fast, some people saw Meng Yun dodging past Carter, but they didn't see how Meng Yun brought the ball over, and they were a little confused.

Some people who were near saw it, and they were full of horror at the moment. How did Meng Yun manage to "split the ball" at such a fast speed?

This ball is too ingenious and amazing.
