Chapter Seventy-Six: We Want It
Mu Tiezhu only started to contact basketball at the age of 25, his physical fitness has not been good, and his basic skills are also very bad, at first he only had the skills of shooting, rebounding, and catching the ball under the basket, and developed the ability to launch a fast attack with a pass in the past few years, but other skills are really not practiced.
Lao Mu's biggest problem now is that his pace is too slow, and he can still play domestic and Asian games before the age of 30, after all, the opponent's level is limited.
But when it came to the World Championships, he couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all, and often the opponents were under the basket, and he hadn't run past half the court.
So when China plays European teams and American teams, Lao Muji is useless.
In the past two years, his mobility and physical fitness have declined year by year, and even if he plays Asian countries, he can't keep up with the rhythm.
South Korea and Japan will also speed up the pace of attack and defense when facing Mu Tiezhu's presence, and even learn from China to play a small and agile style.
At this time, having Mu Tiezhu is equivalent to 4 to 5 on the defensive end, which is also the reason why Mu Tiezhu's playing time in the national team has begun to decrease in the past two years.
But the Bayi team still uses Mu Tiezhu as the core of the inner line, because they will be slightly passive when they only defend in China, and Mu Tiezhu is still unbeatable on the offensive end, but today I didn't expect the Jinan team to use the full-court pressing to make Mu Tiezhu become passive on the defensive end.
"Coach Qian, the Jinan team has learned the full-court tight you invented."
Ye Yuqi, who was in front of the TV, looked at the Bayi team that fell into passivity at the beginning, and said to a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties beside him.
"Yes, the full-court pressing against the Bayi team does have an effect, but it is unlikely to beat the Bayi team with this move, otherwise we would have been defeated by South Korea and Japan a long time ago."
Qian Chenghai has always been very polite to Ye Yuqi, he, the head coach, has to be ranked behind the team leader in the national team, Ye Yuqi has been promoted from deputy team leader to official team leader after the year, and he is actually his boss.
"This Luda is a good seedling, no one did that dunk just now that no one in our class of players did it, it seems that Jinan has cultivated a talent for the country."
Ye Yuqi said and looked at Ruda on TV, this young man's performance surprised her, especially the athleticism shown in the attack and defense just now.
"It's really a big talent, you might as well summon him over for the next training camp and see if it's really 17 years old."
Qian Chenghai was also surprised by the physical fitness shown by Luda, if he really had such a body and technique at the age of 17, it would be a genius.
"I also think the same way, at the moment, there are a lot of talents emerging in volleyball and football, but we have retreated a Zhang Weiping here, and it is time for fresh blood to add in."
Ye Yuqi still has a sense of pride between her words, because the most talented person in the football field is her baby son!
Wu Jie can even be said to be the leader of the younger generation in the world, and she can be promoted to the leader of the men's basketball team after the year, mostly because Wu Jie has won too much glory for the country, and many of these credits have been rewarded to Wu Zhengsong and her.
At this moment on the pitch, the two teams have restarted the game.
The Bayi team served in the front court, and Mu Tiezhu stood under the basket and opened his hand to catch the ball.
But this is just an illusion, and it will definitely not be possible to send it directly to Mu Tiezhu.
Kuang Lubin received the basketball first, and seeing Pan Liangping in front of Mu Tiezhu, he immediately turned the ball to the wing.
Guo Yonglin received a pass on the weak side, and then handed the basketball to Mu Tiezhu.
Mu Tiezhu didn't put down the basketball after opening his hand, just holding a giant palm high and putting the ball into the basket.
That's right, Lao Mu didn't even jump, he first squeezed away the opponent with his wide body, and put the ball into the basket with a single step!
This is how he plays basketball, taking a slow walk, slowly raising his hand to put the ball in the basket, so even Zhang Weiping, who is younger than him, has retired, but he can still play in the Bayi team until he is 38 years old.
"Lao Pan, follow the direction of the basketball at any time, don't let him receive a pass and block all frontal passing routes."
Ruda was very dissatisfied with this ball, how could he let the Bayi team pass the ball to Mu Tiezhu in three turns and two turns?
"Hmph, you said it lightly, then you can prevent one and I'll take a look!"
Of course, Pan Liangping said this in his heart, and when he heard this, he could only nod his head to indicate that he knew.
"Keep pressing!"
Ruda didn't say any more, and immediately gathered his teammates to continue to press all over the court.
But this time, the Bayi team changed its routine when serving, and saw that the three outside players all rushed to the front court, Xing Weining sent the ball to Mu Tiezhu who stayed in the backcourt, and then saw the giant throw the ball to Wu Xinshui with one hand.
I have to say that Lao Mu's ball is passed quickly and accurately, which is quite a bit of a cruise missile, and a certain Polish superstar should really study hard.
After receiving the ball, Wu Xinshui shook Wang Zhiqiang, burst into the penalty area and handed the ball to Kuang Lubin, who followed up, and the latter scored a layup.
"This ......"
Ruda shook his head, he knew that Mu Tiezhu had the ability to launch a fast attack, and this kung fu even forced FIBA to change the rules of serving, because the original Chinese team directly passed the fast attack from the beginning of the serve.
But this kind of pass is easy to break in Luda's eyes, if Wang Zhiqiang can run faster, fight fiercely, and react faster, he has every chance to stop the ball.
But this kind of thinking is a bit wishful thinking, there is a kind of Jordan who doesn't like anyone to play, and completely forgets how perverted his talent is.
If Wang Zhiqiang could run faster, fight more fiercely, jump higher, and react faster, he would have stopped playing in the Jinan team a long time ago.
This time the Jinan team attacked, and Luda decided to come by himself.
"Pass it over!"
Ruda quickly landed in the low post on the right side and raised his hand to ask Wang Zhiqiang for the ball.
Xing Weining didn't dare to be careless, but he still didn't expect Wu Jie to dribble so well, and he actually faced him with a large-scale shoulder shake to deceive his center of gravity, and then used a guard's change of direction to kill the basket along the bottom line.
Mu Tiezhu stayed under the basket and hurriedly stepped forward to make up for the defense.
But his movements were too slow, and Luda hit the basket with a quick dunk immediately, not giving Mu Tiezhu a chance to block at all.
Beijing fans feel that this scene is similar, as happened when the Bullets visited China two years ago.
Even if Mu Tiezhu stands under the basket, he can't have much impact on the offensive players, because the opponent's speed is too fast, Mu Tiezhu can't cover the basketball at all unless he shoots people down, including rebounding, and he can't grab the opponent's center who is less than two meters away, the reason is, of course, that the action is too clumsy.
Ruda also figured out Mu Tiezhu's action rate this time, and then rushed to the basket at every opportunity, completely ignoring the opponent's height of nearly 2.3 meters, because he could jump up first and then think about how to avoid Mu Tiezhu's block, but the latter would definitely not be able to react twice.
In addition, he also began to frequently assist Mu Tiezhu on the defensive end, using his high mobility ability to sweep back and forth in the penalty area.
The Bayi team soon found that they had nothing to do with this boy under the age of 17, not only was the offense frequently destroyed by Ruda, but their defense actually couldn't limit this guy.
Xing Weining is a little stronger than Luda in terms of height and weight, and it stands to reason that his confrontation ability should be better, but every physical confrontation between the two is basically Luda's victory.
What the Bayi team can't believe the most is that Luda can continue to break through to the basket after completing the physical confrontation, at this time Mu Tiezhu needs to keep making up for him, but not to mention how slow he is to make up for the defense, every time Luda breaks through with the ball, Pan Liangping will pull to the middle distance, and Mu Tiezhu will let him get a shooting opportunity if he doesn't follow.
Pan Liangping's overall level is not high, but the middle distance of the vacant position is very accurate.
In the end, the Bayi team was also out of line, and Ma Zhanfu was not much stronger than Mu Tiezhu after he went up, so they simply let these two inside lines take turns to die under the basket, and once Luda broke through, they would change their defenses and let Xing Weining deal with Pan Liangping.
But at this time, Ruda did not go to the basket, although there was no three-point shot in international basketball in 1981, but Ruda's mid-to-long-range two-point shot was also very accurate.
Xing Weining didn't guard against him, and the two high school forwards were guarding the basket, so he didn't have to go to the hard fight, just shoot directly at the middle distance.
The Bayi team has never seen this kind of second center forward who can break through with the ball, can also shoot at medium and long distances, and even pass the ball very well.
At the end of the first half, the score was 46:36, and the Jinan team not only took the lead at the home of the Bayi team, but also had the upper hand on the field.
Mu Tiezhu, Ma Zhanfu, and Xing Weining, at this time, one 3 fouls and two 2 fouls were basically fouls on Luda.
Ruda was stunned in the first half against the Bayi team and scored 22 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 5 blocks, not only almost broke down the interior defense of the Bayi team on the offensive end, but also made the Bayi team's head bleed on the defensive end, and the 5 blocks were a little bloody no matter how you look at them.
"Enough, I'll go and contact the Jinan team later, we'll decide on this Luda."
Tian Rongwei made up his mind to transfer Luda to the Bayi team after watching the first half, he still remembered that in the first half, Luda once faced Mu Tiezhu's defense, and directly folded his body in the air to make a big pull rod, that action he had never seen a domestic player do, this kid is definitely a genius.
Zhou Chunlin shook his head, this kid is a real genius, but he is too young and vigorous.
In the first half, there were 5 balls, and there was another time when he directly slapped Mu Tiezhu's layup to the audience from behind, how did this make the old-timers get off the stage?
"It's the World Club Asian Trials in May, and this kid will definitely be a fierce player by then."
Chen Jiangxiang was also full of praise for Luda's performance, but he didn't think that this kind of youthful grandeur would be a problem, because people have this capital!
"There will be no problem with the Asian trials, this kid will definitely let the world see that we have more than one football genius in China when he arrives in the main tournament in September!"
Tian Rongwei was also a little churning in his heart, this kid couldn't make the Bayi team famous in the world.
He's not even 17 years old now, so why would he have to practice for another two years?
It's a pity that Marshal He is gone, otherwise when he sees such a genius, I'm afraid he won't have to be personally entertained at home.
