984 The Great Wall will never fall
Morant's appearance seemed to break the balance between the two parties at first.
He constantly caused fouls on the inside of the Huaxia team, and coupled with his constant fast breaks, the Huaxia team simply could not cope with it.
The Chinese coach Du Feng has only one request for his players: slow down.
Facing the American team, you will definitely not be able to compete with speed, so you will have to compete with height.
So while Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi were on the inside, he actually put on Wang Zhelin.
Three tower lineup.
In today's small ball era, two-tower lineups are almost extinct, let alone three-tower lineups.
As soon as this lineup came out, the commentators and fans at the scene laughed.
"China's coach is still stuck in the ancient times."
"Did he just get access to the Internet cafe at home?"
However, coach Du Feng disagreed.
He knows that James is most afraid of tall insiders.
The three insiders moved onto the court, and James' martial arts was reduced by at least 40%.
After all, James's greatest skill is to break through the tank and get inside for a layup.
Now there are three tall guys inside, and James will get a shot if he rushes in.
Although Morant has a very strong impact, there are all tall insiders here, so it is difficult for him to break through the space.
Without the ability to break through to the inside, the current martial arts skills of the American team can be considered to be 40% useless.
All they have left is to play fast breaks and shoot three-pointers.
On the contrary, in terms of shooting three-pointers, their touch today was pretty good.
But as long as they miss a three-pointer, the rebound must belong to the Chinese team.
At this time, almost all members of the Huaxia team were grabbing rebounds.
Wang Zhelin, Yi Jianlian, and Zhou Qi are three tall guys, plus the two springers Wang Yi and Zhang Zhenlin.
Team USA doesn't want rebounds.
After getting the rebound and coming to the frontcourt, the Chinese team was not in a hurry to attack.
Wang Yi is still pulled to one side to attract double teams, and then several others engage in a 4-on-3 coordination.
It can be said that today’s Huaxia team is all working hard.
Although their shooting percentage is average, they still have rebounds.
Everyone looked like crazy when they saw the rebound, rushing to grab it.
As the saying goes, if you control the rebounds, you can control the game.
So at the end of the third quarter, the Chinese team not only caught up with the score, but also led the American team by 4 points.
At this time, everyone in the US team realized the seriousness of the matter.
Halfway through the third quarter, they still thought it was the same as before, as long as they took the opponent seriously, they would lose.
But I never expected that they played so seriously today, and ended up still trailing by 4 points at the end of the third quarter.
This time everyone has truly realized that the Chinese team today is different from the past.
Not only is Wang Yi's personal strength superior to their other stars, but the personal strength of other members of the Huaxia team has also become stronger than in the past.
In the 3rd quarter, Wang Yi didn't score much, only 5 points.
Most of the time he is attracting the opponent's defense and creating more opportunities for his teammates.
During the break between quarters, Mr. Bo’s brows were full of solemnity as he was thinking about how to play in the fourth quarter.
In terms of on-the-spot response, China coach Du Feng overpowered him in the third quarter, and he had to come back in the fourth quarter.
Gu Chi
So he explained to the players: "They force us to shoot three-pointers for fast breaks, so we will shoot three-pointers for fast breaks. In positional battles, everyone will cover Stephen and Klay. As long as the two of them are out,
Give them the ball when you get the chance."
All the players nodded.
On the Chinese team's side, coach Du Feng is also estimating the American team's play style in the fourth quarter in advance.
Based on his estimation, the U.S. team couldn't get any rebounds in the past few minutes. It's impossible for Mr. Bo to send all their tall men up to get rebounds.
They will definitely continue their three-point and fast-break tactics.
There is no way to use fast break tactics. The Chinese team simply cannot catch up.
And when they shoot a three-pointer, they will definitely hand the ball to the most suitable hands of Curry and Thompson.
So he gave Wang Yi and Zhao Jiwei death orders.
"I don't care how good your personal defense is. Anyway, after coming on the court in the 4th quarter, you will bite Curry and Thompson to death. You must catch up with them at all costs, and don't let them take action even if you get fouled."
At the same time, he told the others: "As long as the two of them want to take action in front of you, jump on me and fight to death! You must bite them like a pack of wolves. Let them feel the aggressiveness of your defense."
Everyone responded in unison: "Understood!"
At this time, the battle with the American team has reached a fever pitch. They understand that the Chinese team is indeed not as strong as the United States, so if they want to win the game, they really have to work hard, just like Mad Dog Beverly, every time Every second is frantically biting.
After entering the fourth quarter, the U.S. team still adopted a double-team strategy against Wang Yi.
Wang Yi is still on the sideline, attracting the two defenders and creating 4-on-3 opportunities for his teammates.
In the end, Zhang Zhenlin of the Chinese team ended the attack with a dunk.
Turning around, it was the U.S. team's turn to attack, and other players began to create opportunities for Curry and Thomson to catch and shoot.
However, wherever Curry goes, Wang Yi follows.
Since Wang Yi is faster than him, it is difficult for him to get rid of Wang Yi. Even if he temporarily gets rid of Wang Yi through cover, Wang Yi can catch up instantly.
Although Curry's three-point shot is very fast, don't forget Wang Yi's abnormal bounce. Even from two meters away, he can block Curry's already shot three-pointer.
On the other side, after Zhao Jiwei came on the court, he continued to bite Thompson crazily.
Thompson came to the inside, and Zhao Jiwei rushed to the inside like crazy.
Thompson came to the outside line, and Zhao Jiwei followed him to the outside line.
Even when Thompson ran off the court, Zhao Jiwei followed him.
Zhao Jiwei didn't have Wang Yi's speed and reaction ability, but he really tried his best.
Like a soldier who is red-eyed on the battlefield, there is only one word in his mind: attack Thompson to the death.
It's like a mother who sees her son in danger and pounces on her son like crazy.
No effort was spared at all.
In order to pounce on Thompson, he pounced too hard and jumped directly onto the technical table. He rolled over the technical table, knocked over two monitors, and knocked down two technicians working on the technical table.
After he got up, his brow bone was cracked and blood was flowing.
When the head coach wanted to replace him, he shook his head repeatedly.
"No, coach, my task has not been completed yet. Please let me stay on the court. You have also seen that I have been very effective in guarding against him in the past few minutes. Please let me stay on the court."
His words moved all the Chinese players.
As a tough coach, Du Feng couldn't help but feel his heart tremble when he saw Zhao Jiwei's face covered in blood.
Then he looked at the panting Yi Jianlian;
Zhou Qi was sweating profusely;
There is no part of Wang Zhelin’s body that is not wet;
Zhang Zhenlin kept stretching his hands and supporting his knees, gasping for air.
These are all good Chinese men.
Chapter completed!
