Chapter 20: Stalemate
Just as the two coaches made eye contact, Mo Yufeng and Han Zai confronted each other again.
It's just that this time, H Polytechnic's formation has shrunk a little, and the position has unconsciously returned to the offensive mode of 131.
In fact, it is better to say that they unconsciously changed the formation, but it is better to say that Shanda learned a lesson and took the lead in changing the formation to 23 joint defense.
The reason why this is so is because Gao Daquan has keenly felt the hidden dangers of Deng Kai in blocking and dismantling, and Han Zai's last round of steals was just a fluke.
The 23 joint defense is a thorough and integrated formation, which requires the linkage and mutual assistance of all team members, and no one is allowed to leave their guard area without authorization.
Therefore, in this round of confrontation, Han Jae did not approach Mo Yufeng, but obediently stayed near the three-point line, staring directly at this difficult opponent.
Mo Yufeng glanced at Wang Tao's position on the bottom line, and then passed the ball to Deng Kai, who was on the same side as him, and Huo Minmin was not far from him.
Originally, after Deng Kai received the ball, he only needed to make a simple false trick to deceive Zhang Lixin, who was defending him, and he could pass the ball to the bottom line.
However, when Kong Fang saw this, he immediately slipped under his feet, stood firmly in front of Deng Kai, and joined forces with Zhang Lixin to assist in defense.
In desperation, Deng Kai had no choice but to quickly pass the ball back to Mo Yufeng at the top of the three-point arc.
The speed of passing is naturally much faster than the speed of human movement, so when passing back and forth, Han Zai can't keep up with the rhythm, no matter how experienced he is, no matter how strong his consciousness is, this gap is the hard injury of the 23 joint defense, and no matter how fast the player's pace is, it is difficult to resist the opponent's more than three rounds of conductive ball.
Taking advantage of the fact that Han Jae still had a step or so to return to his position, Mo Yufeng seized the opportunity to start suddenly and hit the three-point line.
But Kong Fang is not a vegetarian, he and Han Jae are the defenders in charge of high defense, since Han Jae failed to come back in time, then he must be obliged to make up for it.
This is also a kind of linkage effect in joint defense tactics.
Kong Fang's footsteps were swift and decisive, and he stopped in front of Mo Yufeng in one step.
The speed of the small defender should not be underestimated!
At this time, Mo Yufeng had already stepped into the three-point line, and he was about to approach the free throw line, but Kong Fang put his elbow on his back, interfering while defending, forcing him to run to the other side.
At this time, Han Zai had already chased back, and when he saw that Mo Yufeng's dribbling rhythm was a little chaotic, he took advantage of the situation and cooperated with Kong Fang to attack from the other side.
There are wolves in front and tigers in the back.
Mo Yufeng was attacked on his back, with Han Zai on the left and Kong Fang on the right, and there was no room for detour in his hands.
In a desperate situation, just when Mo Yufeng retreated sideways, ready to readjust the offensive formation, Kong Fang's eyes were quick, and with the help of Han Zai's interference, he suddenly stretched out his hand and beat the basketball in Mo Yufeng's hand with extreme precision.
"Bang. ”
The basketball jumped forward in response and bounced directly at Han Jae's feet.
"Han Jae!" Kong Fang reminded, and the moment he knocked out the basketball, he had already turned around confidently.
And when Han Jae heard his shout, he was like a sharp sword that suddenly unsheathed, piercing half of the basketball court.
Han Zai comprehended, picked up the basketball and turned around before Mo Yufeng turned around and slipped away, and before he could run out of the three-point line, he waved his long arm, treated the ball as a cannonball, and threw it at Kong Fang, who had entered the front court.
Strangling the opponent's offense in the high position is the most tacit cooperation between the guard and the defender, and it can easily play into a wave of fast attack without the help of other teammates, saving people and effort, and it is also efficient.
Han Jae's pass landed just right, almost as soon as Kong Fang's front foot stepped into the three-point line, it perfectly catered to the basketball that bounced on the ground, and he only needed to dribble and adjust his pace to score a layup in three steps.
However, there are surprises in everything.
Just when everyone's attention was locked on Kong Fang, thinking that his goal this time was a foregone conclusion, suddenly a black shadow galloped by, shocking into the sight of the audience, leaving an afterimage on everyone's retina.
", it's Huo Min. Qin Zhijie was so excited that he pinched Liang Yu beside him.
"It's really alas!" Liang Yu didn't care about the pain, and looked at the speeding figure in the field and exclaimed.
When Kong Fang thought that there was a road to heaven in front of him, and scoring a goal was as easy as probing and fetching things, Huo Minmin was as fast as a meteor, and then came to the top, taking advantage of the inertia of the group impact to run and jump, and jumped into the air.
Kong Fang was completely unaware of what was happening behind him, and was unguarded, and at the moment when the basketball left his fingertips, he suddenly found a black shadow falling from the sky and covering his head.
"Bang. ”
Huo Minrui's palm blocked, as if he was splitting Huashan, and in an instant, he fanned the basketball out of bounds!
"Beautiful, old Huo!" Mo Yufeng gave Huo Kerui a thumbs up from behind.
Kong Fang almost flew out due to Huo Minrui's impact, but fortunately, his body coordination was good, and he twisted his body around, but even so, when he landed, he still couldn't help but staggered back a few steps.
Huo Minmin's not particularly tall body stood under the basketball hoop, majestic, like a god of war standing up to the sky, domineering.
"Polytechnic wins......"
The fans in the stands were like a frying pan, and Huo Min's sudden force instantly detonated the enthusiasm of the audience, and everyone couldn't help but sigh at his amazing blow.
No one saw when Huo Minrui started to vigorously pursue the defense, only knew that when Kong Fang rushed across the middle line, there must have been no figure in the half of the basketball court in front of him.
If you think about it, Huo Minrui can only start after being pulled away by Kong Fang by half a court.
This speed ...... It's unbelievable!
Kong Fang, who came to his senses, doubted his speed for the first time in his life, glared at Huo Minrui, his expression was full of murderous aura.
However, Huo Minrui didn't care about this, stepped forward and patted Kong Fang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry I covered your ball!"
"You...... Neurotic!" The corners of Kong Fang's mouth twitched, he was really angry, he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, the other party was so polite, how else could you!
"H Polytechnic is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and it may not be easy to win today's battle!" Pan Dahai's eyes were dark, and he looked at the scene and moved in his heart, and called a pause.
Just over a minute into the game, a timeout was called before the two sides had even scored a point, which is unique in the history of league competition.
However, the battle situation has become a stalemate, and if it continues like this, morale will inevitably be affected, and we must find a way to break this dilemma, win the first goal, and take the initiative in this game.
While Pan Dahai made tactical adjustments to the players, Coach Wu Hualin also gave instructions to the players.
"You remember, no matter how provocative the opponent is, you must maintain the most peaceful mentality, face the opponent with a warm smile like spring, adhere to the principle of not being angry, not fouling, and finish this game. "Coach Wu's words are profound and intriguing.
"Yes, Coach. The team members tacitly agreed.
"Alright, let's go up!" Coach Wu waved his hand.
Tong Ernan in the audience had a slight upturn of his lips and his eyes shining under dark sunglasses, and he had a hunch that the next game would be very interesting.
The ball was in H Polytechnic, and when the players on both sides came on the court and got in position, the players on the H Polytechnic side suddenly understood that Shanda had adopted the tactics of misplaced defense.
On the basketball court, misplaced defense is often considered a defensive hole, in one-on-one, small hits are easy to break through, big hits and small jumpers are not threatening, but the best reflection of a player's defensive ability must be misplaced defense.
In the NBA league, if a player wants to become a superstar, he not only needs to have super scoring skills, but also needs certain defensive ability, such as James and Durant.
Similarly, for a team to go far in the season, it needs not only strong scoring ability, but also strong defensive ability, such as the Golden State Warriors.
In the past minute or so of the game, Shanda has regained the initiative twice in a row and lost twice in a row, and the most important thing is that these are between the defenders.
This shows that if this continues, it will be difficult for Shanda to carry out smooth operations on the offensive end, which has also led to the failure of two consecutive attacks.
Coach Pan Dahai was eager to break the deadlock at this time, create pressure on the opponent, and adopt the tactics of misplaced defense, which has to be said to be dangerous.
In this round of attack, Luo Tian, under the cover of Mo Yufeng, used an opportunity to find a reverse run and received a pass from Huo Minrui from the sideline.
Between the speed that Luo Tian showed before, the basketball fell into his hands, like the sharp minions of a tiger, and the pressure on Shanda on the offensive end far exceeded that of Mo Yufeng.
Defending Luo Tian's tall Daquan, he decisively stabbed in front of him with a horse step, blocking his way with his height advantage.
The opponent was misplaced on defense, and Luo Tian had to fight with the big forward with a big waist and a tiger's back.
However, both sides are trained people after all, and when he saw that Luo Tian's attack was blocked, Wang Tao immediately blocked Yanming, and took advantage of his height and weight to gain a place in the three-second zone.
At the same time, after feeling that it was difficult for Yan Ming to get out of his shell behind him, Wang Tao immediately stretched out his hand and rushed to Luo Tian on the outside to ask for the ball, "Luo Tian, here." ”
Rubbing Gao Daquan's shoulders, Luo Tian's line of sight will be good to see Wang Tao, and he will naturally have the advantage of fighting big and small.
So, seeing that Wang Tao was stuck in his position, Luo Tian took a few steps back, deliberately withdrew from Gao Daquan's interference range, and without hesitation, he directly dropped the ball into the inner line.
And Wang Tao used his skillful internal line skills to jam the statement, making him feel like he was lying on a wall behind him, unable to move at all.
The basketball crossed a high-tossing arc and fell into Wang Tao's hands accurately.
Wang Tao opened his mouth with his buttocks, and at the same time held the ball vigorously with both hands, and suddenly made a muffled sound.
On the other hand, his figure is slender and tall, even if he uses all his strength, it is difficult to resist Wang Tao's crushing like a tank.
Just when Yan Ming retreated and his center of gravity was not stable, Wang Tao had already taken his solid steps, arched into the inner line sonorously and powerfully, and approached the basket in three or two steps.
Yan Ming stuck to Wang Tao like chewing gum, but even so, he still couldn't stop his tendency to score goals.
