Chapter 988 Xiang Long's Counterattack

Xiang Long's complexion was not very good-looking, his eyes were cold, and Meng Yun was furious. If the contemptuous expression just now was nothing, what about now?
This is an intra-team training match, not an official match. Xiang Long is your teammate, not your opponent. Obviously, you can pass it with a single acceleration. Do you need to use crotch piercing to pass?
"call."

Taking a deep breath, Meng Yun felt that the anger in his heart could not be suppressed. Recently, because of Wade's departure, he has been in a bad mood, suppressing a burst of anger, and now he was suddenly ignited by Thomas Jr.

It's okay for Thomas Jr. to be rude to him yesterday. After all, Thomas Jr. and Korver suffered "bad fish" yesterday, but today Thomas Jr. did too much.

This is clearly humiliating Xiang Long.

Everyone knows that he and Xiang Long had a feud with the Celtics, but that was with the Celtics, and now they are already in the Heat and become teammates. It would be too unprofessional for you to bring personal grievances .

Other players, including Spoelstra and others on the sidelines, couldn't help frowning, but Thomas Jr. didn't care about it. He scored two goals in a row and his confidence soared. After that, as long as he got the ball, he would play singles.And still aiming at Xiang Long, every time he confronts Xiang Long, he always uses some fancy and humiliating movements, which is completely playing tricks on people.

"Made." Meng Yun became angry, and when he was about to make a move, he was pulled back by Xiang Long. Meng Yun looked at Xiang Long, "What are you pulling me for? This is the Heat. I'm the boss. We can't let Wade stay here." Can't the team teach a little Thomas a lesson?"

"Let me do it." Xiang Long said in a deep voice: "So I will return the humiliation to him personally, and continue to give the ball to Thomas Jr. later, let him play singles."

Meng Yun nodded: "Okay."

In the next round, Meng Yun passed the ball to Thomas Jr. as soon as he advanced to the frontcourt. Thomas Jr. was excited and didn't feel strange at all. Instead, he was a little proud. See if I exploded, and even Meng Yun had to back away.

After receiving the ball, Thomas Jr. broke through again. Relying on his short height, agility, and fast speed, he passed half of Lu Wei in one fell swoop, stopped suddenly when he reached the penalty area, and lifted the ball up.Lu Wei subconsciously jumped up to block the cover, and after he jumped up, he couldn't help saying "no", he was fooled.

Little Thomas smiled smugly, then jumped up, hit Lu Wei with a time difference, lifted the ball, and threw it to the basket.

Suddenly, a figure rose into the air from behind Lu Wei, and through Lu Wei, the basketball that had left Thomas Jr.'s fingertips flew away with a "slap".

"what?"

Little Thomas was shocked, and his face suddenly became ugly when he fixed his eyes.

It turned out to be Xiang Long, and he was blocked by Xiang Long, and he was blocked by Lu Wei, like a god descending from the earth, Thomas' previous fake action suddenly became ridiculous.

He thought he had fooled the defender and felt that he was sure, but in the end he was blocked.

"Damn it!" Little Thomas cursed secretly.

He glared at Xiang Long angrily, but found himself being ignored by Xiang Long.From the beginning to the end, Xiang Long's expression was very calm, and he didn't even look at him.

This indifference made Thomas feel even more embarrassed than the block just now.

"Nice job." Meng Yunchong gave Xiang Long a thumbs up.

With the ball in Group A, Thomas Jr.'s face darkened, and he yelled at Meng Yun: "The ball."

Meng Yun sneered inwardly, do you really think of yourself as the boss?
But Meng Yun still passed the ball because he believed in Xiang Long. Since little Thomas wants to seek death, let him go. He won't turn back until he is slapped several times.

As for unity?

As far as Thomas Jr.'s performance these two days, Meng Yun really didn't think there was a need to unite him. With Meng Yun's previous temper, he would have already punched him.

The others didn't intend to intervene, so they just pulled away to watch the show. Lu Wei simply stopped defending Thomas Jr. and substituted Xiang Long. He followed Salingola to the three-point line, and let Xiang Long and Thomas Jr. one.

This is obviously not what the team training match should look like. Rostern said angrily with a dark face, "What is this? Do you think this is a street bullfight?"

Coach Spoelstra said calmly: "It's okay, let them decide the outcome first."

The grievances between Xiang Long and Thomas Jr. are no secret. Coach Spoelstra has long considered this issue. It would be best if the two can clear up their previous suspicions and cooperate with each other.But if you can't, it's better to loosen the block. Instead of suppressing them, it's better to let them decide the winner first.

At the beginning, Coach Stevens kept suppressing, but in the end, he still failed to resolve the internal conflicts. On the contrary, the deeper the grievances, the more ferocious they would be when they finally broke out.

Of course, it's not that Coach Stevens doesn't understand the principle of "blocking is worse than sparse", it's just that the Celtics' environment and situation don't allow him to do that.

"laugh!"

Thomas Jr. started. Facing Xiang Long, an inside player, in a one-on-one situation, his height disadvantage is too obvious, and breakthrough is the best way.

Xiang Long moved quickly, which surprised Little Thomas. He didn't expect Xiang Long to move so fast, and his prediction was very accurate.He didn't know that Xiang Long would go head-to-head with Meng Yun when he had nothing to do, and he had been abused by Meng Yun for countless times. He had long been used to this kind of defender's breakthrough relying on speed.

In terms of speed, looking at the entire NBA, who can compare to Meng Yun?

It would be too naive for Thomas Jr. to want to pass Xiang Long by relying on speed alone.

Seeing that he failed to get past Xiang Long in the first attempt, Little Thomas was unwilling, took two steps back, and started to play tricks, changing directions continuously, connecting a lot of fake moves.Xiang Long was indeed passed by this time, but Xiang Long immediately turned around and chased after him. The whole movement was smooth and smooth, like a conditioned reflex.

Meng Yun laughed when he saw it. After torturing this guy so many times, it seems that it is still effective. Not to mention whether he will not be passed by, but even if he is passed by, at least the pursuit is quite fast.

Xiang Long has basically never won a duel with Meng Yun. He always knows that Meng Yun will break through, but he can't defend every time, so defending the defender's breakthrough is actually not what he is best at. Chasing after being passed.It is estimated that many inside players would burst into tears seeing Xiang Long's reaction speed.

Thomas Jr. still didn't realize it, and thought he had successfully passed Xiang Long this time, so he hugged the ball and jumped up, leaning forward, holding the ball and trying to make a layup.

The next moment, Thomas Jr. felt a darkness above his head, and before he had time to react, he felt that his palm was empty. With a "snap", another big cap, and this time it was directly knocked down on the backboard. pegboard cap.
