Chapter 1019 1019. Brutal start
Liu Xiu was more than ten centimeters shorter than James, but he blocked the opponent on the three-point line. This scene made the fans who saw this scene dumbfounded!
Liu Xiu’s physical fitness is strong. Fans have heard about this for a long time, and they have seen it on TV, but seeing it with their own eyes, the impact is completely different!
The fast break failed, Kidd controlled the rhythm and advanced to the frontcourt, giving the ball to Kobe.
Kobe did not play singles against Zhu Fangyu's defense. He signaled Kwame Brown to the left baseline, James to the left of the free throw line, and Kidd to the right corner. Anthony ran to the top arc and took the ball from Kobe. At a 45-degree angle on the right, cutting inside, Anthony singles Wang Zhizhi.
After Wang Zhizhi raised his center of gravity with a feint shot, Anthony took a step, bypassing Wang Zhizhi and rushing to the right of the free throw line, making an emergency stop jump shot...hit!
Comprehensive ability is not as strong as Kobe, but Anthony is the strongest and most comprehensive one in the US team in scoring! He is not as good as Kobe because Kobe's defense is almost full in the international arena.
The offense and defense switched, Liu Xiu received the serve and pushed forward. Looking at Kobe who was guarding the top arc, he made a reasonable analysis and pouted his mouth. He really didn't expect...
Yao Ming's low-post offensive threat does not need to show his ability. Just like Shaquille O'Neal, he has long been famous. Standing there, he can firmly press the opponent's striker defense under the basket.
Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu, pitchers, Wang Zhizhi, can support and shoot, but it is obviously not the best choice. Making good use of Wang Zhizhi's more comprehensive characteristics in the international arena is the best choice.
When advancing more than one meter away from the top arc, Liu Xiu made sure of one thing. He didn't expect that the most reasonable way to play would be to directly activate the West Coast mode!
When he made this decision, the talent 'reasonable' was triggered!
"Talent: Reasonable trigger, the host's competitive state, game rhythm, and shooting feel have increased significantly..."
Seeing the system prompt, Liu Xiu came up with an idea—this is very reasonable!
Teammates settled down, Wang Zhizhi was ready to move, Liu Xiu saw this, and started singles!
Kobe is guarding the position half a step outside the top arc. He can press forward and retreat to defend against breakthroughs. His explosive physical fitness, coupled with his size advantage...Liu Xiu felt the strongest single-defense oppression since the beginning of the Olympic Games!
Although the Greek team's defense is good, it is mainly team defense. Kobe relies purely on his personal ability.
There was no flaw in his stance. Liu Xiu gave up the breakthrough. He dribbled the ball under his crotch while retreating to a position far away from the three-point line. Calculated by the three-point line in the NBA, it is one meter away. .
Kobe didn't move at first, he stayed one step outside the three-point line to prevent being passed by, but when he saw Liu Xiu's mouth turned up, he had an absurd idea, but he chose to describe it immediately, towards Liu Xiu Xiu pounced on it.
Still a beat slow!
By the time Kobe jumped in front of Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu had already grabbed the ball and threw it!
The fans at the scene were also wondering why Liu Xiu was still retreating. Seeing Liu Xiu suddenly grab the ball and throw it out, everyone was shocked!
Also, Kobe on the opposite side actually judged that other than Liu Xiu could shoot the ball, he really jumped at Liu Xiu who was more than eight meters away from the basket...
Immediately afterwards, the scene boiled!
Liu Xiu hit a super long three-pointer at the start!
"Bean, here is a welcome salute for you!"
Liu Xiu pointed out his gun finger while speaking, blew on the 'gun muzzle', then turned and retreated.
Although the fans at the scene couldn't hear what Liu Xiu said, there was no doubt that Liu Xiu's action was to provoke the opponent after scoring a goal. This scene made the domestic fans at the scene extremely excited.
The Olympic Games are now going on, and the finals are over, and people have already confirmed one thing—the American men's basketball team this time is completely different from the American men's basketball team in the past few years.
The worries and fears of domestic fans are greater than their confidence.
How influential is the Dream Team?
There was a period of time in the domestic sports circle, when describing national table tennis, diving, and gymnastics, they all followed suit and were crowned with the title of "Dream Team".
The performance of the US men's basketball team in the first 7 games, in people's opinion, is indeed worthy of the title of "Dream Team".
Facing such an opponent, domestic fans do not have particularly strong confidence.
When the fans think this way, they will put themselves into the players, and feel that the players of the Chinese men's basketball team are also worried, afraid and lack of confidence... But when Liu Xiu hits such a wild ball, he is as arrogant as ever and successfully countered In the past, it has affected fans with a deep sense of substitution.
Dream Team? The strongest team?
What a fool! Fuck him!
When the U.S. team attacked, the boos of the fans were more violent than in the previous round!
Anthony continued to play singles with the ball. Wang Zhizhi broke through the defense and entered the inside line. Yao Ming made up to pinch Anthony. Anthony scored the ball on the left baseline. Kwame Brown received the ball. The ball smashed into the basket with one hand.
Liu Xiu received the ball that bounced on the floor and pushed it out of bounds. Wang Zhizhi, who retired from the baseline, received the ball and sent it to Liu Xiu.
No surprises, I can't help it.
But it's okay...
When it came time for the Chinese team to attack, Liu Xiu just passed the middle circle and was stuck by Kobe. He advanced to the three-point line against Kobe and then accelerated the breakthrough. Anthony pinched up, Liu Xiu returned the top arc, Wang Zhizhi received the ball, and faced James to defend the three-pointer Shot...hit!
6 to 4, the Chinese team leads the US team by two points!
Defense is not as good as Yi Jianlian, but in offense, Wang Zhizhi cannot catch up with the current Yi Jianlian.
Liu Xiu's "Controller" and "Prisoner" also played a role. He predicted that Wang Zhizhi would move like this. From James' position and small steps, he even predicted how the opponent would help defend. Timing to get the ball out...he felt like he really had the offense in his hands at this moment.
When it comes to the US team’s offense, James holds the ball, Liu Xiu defends the top arc, and the Chinese team’s defense is adjusted to a one-two-two defense.
James is a little annoyed-why did he start defending the zone when he got here?
With Yao Ming here, do you need a joint defense to defend me?
James still chose to dig under the basket and try it, but he couldn't get in, and was blocked as soon as he entered the free throw line.
He spreads the ball to the wing, Kobe catches it, and the open 3… misses!
Liu Xiu grabbed the defensive rebound, pushed forward quickly, and began to slow down after passing the middle circle, picked up the jersey, waited for Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi to run slowly across the half court, settled down, and played positional warfare.
The defender has changed this time! James guards the top arc!
Kobe said he couldn't defend. Liu Xiuqiang said he could stick but couldn't stand it, but it didn't matter. The six guards of the US team, except Deron, all had the defensive strength of the NBA's best defensive team.
James' defense has improved greatly in the past year, and Kidd and Kobe have given him the task of defending Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu changed her stance, leaned over and lowered her center of gravity, and shot the ball quickly.
Relying on his greater height advantage, James stretched out his hand to cover the space for Liu Xiu to shoot.
Compared to the last match in the regular season, Liu Xiu felt James' defensive improvement again. The 7 games against the Bulls must have given this guy a lot of help.
But it's okay...
Liu Xiu suddenly accelerated and broke through to the right!
'Strongest First Step' triggers! Starting speed +5! Start at the fastest speed after the addition!
Blinking, James felt that Liu Xiu suddenly became 'fuzzy', and subconsciously pressed on him, failing to complete the confrontation!
Liu Xiu rushed into the inside and took off to attack the frame. Kwame Brown reacted and made up for it, but it just didn't give Liu Xiu room to take off and dunk, but it couldn't stop Liu Xiu from throwing the ball into the basket during the confrontation.
8 to 4, the Chinese team leads by 4 points!
Kobe and James looked at each other, and the eyes in their eyes meant 'you can't guard it? ’; the latter’s eyes mean ‘Isn’t it too late for your defense? '.
When the U.S. team attacked, Kidd no longer passed the ball to James, but handed it to Kobe who came to the high position on the right side of the three-second zone to play a team attack.
Kobe was defended by Liu Xiu and went to the low post. Yao Ming moved to the off-line in time. Liu Xiu was not afraid of the iron elbow and stuck tighter. Kobe turned and took off. Liu Xiu pressed up and missed Kobe. Take off from a close position and reach out to cover Kobe's shooting space.
The effect of 'Wristguards of the African War' is triggered, bounce +3, and the bounce is temporarily increased to 98, plus the bounce speed of 'Little Overlord's Kneepad' is equal to the bounce effect, Liu Xiu jumps up very fast and jumps extremely high .
Although Kobe got rid of Liu Xiu's confrontation by turning over, he was still affected by the confrontation. Liu Xiu, who was several centimeters shorter than him, jumped up and covered his entire shooting space!
This picture made the reporters near the baseline shout "hat hat hat", but Kobe turned into a pass in the air and sent the ball from Yao Ming's head to the basket. !
Switching offense and defense, Liu Xiu advanced to the frontcourt, and saw that the man defending him changed again and became Kidd.
This is to take turns, try which defensive master has the best effect?
Liu Xiu speculated about the opponent's defensive intentions and sneered.
Kidd, who was half a step outside the three-point line, saw Liu Xiu smile. Before he thought about what the smile meant, he saw Liu Xiu move, suddenly!
Kidd's defense was very solid, he maintained a good distance, and his footsteps moved very well. He kept up with Liu Xiu's breakthrough. throw the ball...
"kuang"
This ball is iron!
Anthony protected the defensive rebound, but the ball still surprised Kidd.
Received the ball from Anthony, Kidd shook his head towards Kobe and James.
The two of them understood what Kidd meant. The two of them defended against Liu Xiu. Anyway, they were tall there, and they had natural interference conditions for Liu Xiu's outside shooting.
Liu Xiu beat Kidd...it was really a random shot.
It's not that Kidd's defense is not good, but that Liu Xiu is too turbulent and too strong.
Just now, Liu Xiu's shot has nothing to do with Kidd's defense, it's just that he didn't make a shot. For Liu Xiu, the opportunity has come out.
Kidd gave the ball to Kobe again after he went to the frontcourt. Kobe singled out Liu Xiu and launched an offense. After breaking through, he passed the ball to James.
Kwame Brown caught the ball from the left baseline and made a mid-range shot...Iron!
Liu Xiu stuck Kobe, "Sturdy as a Rock" triggered, protecting the defensive rebound.
Liu Xiu advances to the frontcourt for singles, and the defense against Liu Xiu becomes James again, but Kobe moves ahead of time and forms a pincer attack on Liu Xiu one step inside the free throw line.
Liu Xiu points the ball, Zhu Fangyu catches the ball and turns around, facing Anthony who pounces on him, before Anthony interferes in place, he makes a three-point shot...hit!
11 to 6, the Chinese team leads by 5 points!
It was time for the U.S. team to attack again. This time it was Anthony’s turn to attack. When the ball came to Kobe’s hands and Kobe was flanked by a step inside the free throw line, he found that the opportunity came from Kwame Brown again, and Wang Zhizhi went back to the basket. , Kwame Brown can only catch and shoot...
The opponent is betting on Kwame Brown's inaccurate shot!
In the blink of an eye, Kobe made a decision, pulled it up, and made a mid-range shot to face Yao Ming... "Pa"...Yao Ming seized the opportunity and sent out the big hot pot in front of him!
James rushed out to pick up the ball, but Liu Xiukuai grabbed the ball with one shot, rushed to the front court, stopped outside the three-point line, James rushed into the three-point line, Liu Xiu shot a three-pointer...
This time the counterattack took less than 7 seconds, and the 20% probability of the 'Zonda' to trigger the fiery bonus came, and Liu Xiu chased the body and hit a three-pointer!
14 to 6, the Chinese team led by 8 points, and the US team called a timeout!
…
Watching the players on the field walk towards the bench, old K's brain turned rapidly.
Kwame Brown got chances for 3 consecutive rounds. Old K suspected that this was the opponent's defensive strategy, but he was not sure. He tried another round... and the score difference came to 8 points.
This point difference, the old K who holds this group of players, did not pay attention to it.
He lost another 3 points without regret, and the goal has been achieved.
He's not testing Kwame Brown for accuracy.
Kwame Brown has a mid-range shot and support, and can be used as a support point, but he does not have the ability to be the main attack point and support point.
Old K is confirming whether the opponent's defensive strategy can really force them to pass the ball to Kwame Brown.
The old fox who dared to let the two all-star guards Van Exel and Eddie Jones stand aside and let the rookie Kobe shoot the lore shot always had such strange tactics.
The answer is that Silver Fox's strategy this time is effective.
Old K looked at the center forward on the bench, the beast... used as the core, defending hard, very good, but probably will be hammered to death by Yao Ming.
The two played against Yao Ming 14 times in the regular season and 5 times in the playoffs. Beast only won 2 times, and faced Yao Ming with 2 wins and 17 losses.
In the matchup between active stars, only Paul and Gasol can be compared to the brutality of Paul and Gasol facing Liu Xiu as the beast facing Yao Ming.
Bosh and Yao Ming have wins and losses, but it is not Bosh who is facing Yao Ming, but Milicic who can fight Yao Ming back and forth without losing the wind.
It is still necessary to be the champion of parallel imports, but it cannot be regarded as a support point and support point. It is too difficult to be the champion of parallel imports for several consecutive rounds of support and support.
However, the champion of parallel imports still has an ability that beasts do not have—pick-and-roll performer.
But James and Kwame Brown play the pick-and-roll...the opponent probably doesn't have to leave the low post.
Old K made a judgment—James, who is not yet 24 years old and has not yet developed his skills, is too unsuitable for the international arena.
Paul and Deron are obviously better choices, the players are already surrounded by the side, the old K quickly made a decision to replace Kidd and James, put on Paul and Wade!
