Chapter 459 Meng Yun's Strategy

Swish!
The Hornets scored another goal.

At this time, the Hornets had already overtaken the score. Meng Yun thought for a while, hugged the ball and rushed to the edge of the court to signal: "Request a timeout."

Coach Spoelstra nodded secretly, immediately called a timeout, and said to Craig next to him: "Do you know what Meng's excellence is? It's not amazing talent, unparalleled speed, and precise three-pointers. It's that he knows how to think."

Craig nodded approvingly.

Why does Meng Yun improve so fast, but other rookies don't make much progress? This is the difference.

"Coach." Meng Yun looked at Spoelstra and said helplessly: "I don't know what to do. I have never encountered such a strong defense. My previous experience can't help me at all. I don't know what to do. Knowing what I'm supposed to do, I don't know if I'm supposed to shoot or pass."

"Why must it be reasonable?" Spoelstra looked at Meng Yun and said, "I watched your NCAA games, and this happened before. How did you do it then?"

Meng Yun's heart moved, and he felt that something was wrong: "At that time, I just tried to score and send the basketball into the basket. But it's different now, I can't do it."

Spoelstra shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether you can do it or not. The important thing is that you have to do it. You are the core of the bench lineup. If you retreat yourself, what about the others? And, I don't think You can’t do it, you have to have confidence in yourself. You played very well in the first quarter, you have to relax and play as you have played in the past.”

Meng Yun was shocked and nodded heavily: "I understand."

Spoelstra smiled and said, "Just do it when you understand."

The whistle blows and the timeout ends.

The Heat didn't make any substitutions, and they were still on the bench. Craig looked at Meng Yun and hesitated, "Does Meng really understand? Can he do well?"

Spoelstra smiled slightly, the result is actually not that important, the team does not have to rely on Meng Yun to win, and Bosh and Wade, even if Meng Yun does not do well, it does not matter, at least After this experience, his performance will definitely be much better when he encounters a similar situation next time.

Heat attack.

After Meng Yun came to the frontcourt, he gestured to his teammates. The teammates came to pick and roll, Meng Yun accelerated to throw off the defender, without the slightest pause, and immediately rushed to the inside.

"Hmph, courting death!"

The Hornets sneered inside, and the two jumped up at the same time, their palms falling like cattail fans.

With a slap, Meng Yun fell to the ground, and the ball failed to score, but when the referee's whistle sounded, Meng Yun smiled: "That's it."

"I didn't foul."

"Me neither."

The Hornets looked aggrieved on the inside, and spread their hands at the referee, saying that they did not foul.

But it doesn't matter anymore, the referee has already blown his whistle, raised two fingers, and signaled two free throws.

Meng Yun walked to the free throw line, made two free throws steadily, and his eyes were bright. That's it. My shooting is restricted, and my teammates don't feel good. Then I will make kills. As long as our side starts to score, the situation will improve.

This is Meng Yun's strategy, to forcefully cause damage, even if he can't score a goal, as long as he can cause the opponent's foul to be considered a success.After one, two, or three times, the opponent's defensive actions will converge a little.

Of course, the key is to be aggressive so that you can wake up your teammates.

It's not that the Heat can't score. From the perspective of the lineup, they still have the advantage, but they are in an unfavorable state. As long as they break this state, everything will be easy.

"Rush inside and cause damage." Spoelstra nodded secretly: "This is also a way."

Of course, the Hornets are not fools, and their defensive strategy against Meng Yun is not constant. They quickly adjusted their strategy and refused to foul easily.

It's just that Meng Yun decided that he was going to hit the inside, and the Hornets couldn't restrict him. They either fouled him and sent him to the free throw line, or they could only watch him score.

There were also times when he was defended, and even Meng Yun got another cap, but Meng Yun didn't care, and next time he would attack the inside line without hesitation.

Gradually, the state of other Heat players began to recover.

In fact, as Spoelstra said, whether Meng Yun can score is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he needs to play aggressively. If you don't stand out - all in all, you can't let yourself be passive, but active.

In a short time, led by Meng Yun, the Heat played a shock wave, quickly overtaking the score and gradually widening the point difference.

"beep"

The Hornets requested a timeout.

Meng Yun came off the field and looked at Spoelstra.

Spoelstra smiled and praised: "Good job."

In fact, Meng Yun's performance has exceeded Spoelstra's expectations. Spoelstra just hopes that Meng Yun can turn passive into active. As for whether he can score points or lead the team to counterattack, he did not report. Great expectations, after all, Meng Yun is still very young, it is normal to grow up amidst setbacks.

But as a result, Meng Yun not only reversed the situation, changed from passive to active, and even scored consecutive goals, leading the team to hit a wave of shock waves and overtake the score.

Behind, both sides made substitutions together.

Meng Yun didn't play again, but with Wade and Bosh, the Heat still maintained a solid lead.

When the first half ended, the Heat led by 9 points.

Entering the second half, Wade broke out, making three-pointers from outside, layups, turnaround jump shots, and various tricks at his fingertips. In just a few minutes, he scored 12 points by himself.

Meng Yun only played for 3 minutes in this quarter, scored a 3-pointer, and also sent out an assist and a rebound.

After entering the fourth quarter, Meng Yun played and led the substitute players to play a wave of beautiful games. Meng Yun has gradually adapted to the Hornets' defense and has become more and more stretched.

"laugh!"

With a soft sound, Meng Yun accelerated his breakthrough and immediately attracted the Hornets' defensive attention. The inside line quickly rushed forward and surrounded Meng Yun.

Meng Yun looked at the basket, raised his hand and threw it, the basketball flew over the defender's head and reached the top of the basket, and a figure flew up, catching the ball was an alley-oop dunk.

"Roar"

Whiteside roared, roaring excitedly.

When halfway through the fourth quarter, Meng Yun was replaced. He sat on the sidelines, gasping for breath: "The game in the regular season is more intense and consumes more energy. How to allocate energy is also a skill. Well, I still need time, I have to adapt to the intensity of the regular season as quickly as possible."

On this point, Meng Yun is full of confidence.
