Chapter 19: Torture
From Meier's point of view, every teammate has an opponent in their position, and their position is very threatening, and he has a hunch that if he passes the ball, there is a chance that he will be cut off.
The whole court is pressing......
A surge of anger rose in Meyer's heart.
Full-court pressing is a tactic used against teams that have weaker point guards, and this kind of pressing can leave point guards at a loss and unable to pass the basketball to other teammates.
Wang Xiao chose to use such tactics to deal with them, which was obviously underestimating him!
"What are you kidding?"
In a fit of rage, Meyer immediately gave up the idea of passing the ball, and looked at Jeremy Lin in front of him with a pair of cold eyes.
Want to use me as a breakthrough? Then I'll blow you up!
The basketball slammed the ground twice, and Meier's figure instantly lowered and rushed towards Jeremy Lin's left side.
Jeremy Lin's face was expressionless, but his eyes were unusually focused, and when he saw Meyer break through to the left, his brain immediately recalled Wang Xiao's voice.
"Meier is a break-through player and his long-range shooting is very inconsistent, so once you get close to him, he will definitely choose to break with the ball."
"You have to keep in mind that Meier's start is not very fast, he is used to breaking through with scissor steps in disguise, and whenever he breaks through from the left, then there is a more than eighty percent chance that he will dribble under the crotch and scissor step to the right to break through."
With eyes glued to Myer's dribbling hand, Jeremy Lin defended in Meyer's direction.
Sure enough, the moment Jeremy Lin moved in the center, Meier jerked back the basketball, tried to hit the ground in the crotch, turned to his right hand, and accelerated from the right side.
But Jeremy Lin, who already knew everything, took the lead at this time.
At the moment when Meyer pulled back the basketball to dribble under his crotch, he suddenly made a move, and his fingertips accurately pointed at the basketball that was slapped to the ground, and flew the basketball point directly, at the same time, Jeremy Lin's figure immediately rushed out, grabbed the basketball before Meyer, and ran wildly towards the opponent's backcourt.
"Damn it!"
Meier was taken aback, he didn't expect that his trick that he had tried and tested was actually directly seen through! He hurriedly turned around to chase after him, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't catch up!
Jeremy Lin's speed is very fast, in the later NBA, a scout specially tested, Jeremy Lin's 100-meter speed is 11.82 seconds, which is in the middle and upper grade among the NBA point guards, but his starting speed is almost comparable to the fastest Wall, Irving and others in the league at that time, and the average speed is ranked first in the comparison with Wall, Irving and Rose!
Of course, the current Jeremy Lin is not as fast as the "Lin Crazy" that later shocked the whole league, but under the training of Wang Xiao's large number of training skills, Jeremy Lin's speed is not much slower than that of him in the NBA era.
No matter how desperately Ren Meier pursued, he could only eat a fart behind Jeremy Lin, who easily rushed to the basket and scored a layup.
"Damn it!"
Meyer looked at Jeremy Lin with a gloomy face, but he didn't expect to be deflated in front of this kid at the beginning.
The teammate returned to the baseline to serve, and as soon as Meyer received the ball, he saw Jeremy Lin post it again.
This next time, Meyer's face was dark.
"Are you treating me like a rookie?"
Waving his hand to reject a teammate who tried to come up to block the pick-and-roll, Meyer glared at Jeremy Lin fiercely and dribbled again.
This time, however, he lost again.
Once again, the basketball was cut off by Jeremy Lin.
"Hey! Meyer, what are you doing? ”
Some teammates couldn't help it and yelled at Meyer.
Looking at the back of Jeremy Lin's layup and scoring, Meyer froze.
"This ...... How is this possible? ”
It's not that he hasn't played against Jeremy Lin, how can this guy have such a strong defensive ability?
The third kick-off, this time Meyer finally coaxed, and was broken twice in a row by Jeremy Lin, which made him panic, beckoning his teammates to help block and dismantle, and finally dribbling the ball across the half court.
"Why can't it be?"
With his hands wrapped, Wang Xiao looked at all this on the field, and the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of arc.
Of course, Jeremy Lin's defense is not so strong, but if you add Jason. What about Kidd?
Nine-time All-Time NBA Defensive Team and second-best steals in NBA history, Kidd is arguably one of the most defensive defenders among point guards.
Although Jeremy Lin, who used Kidd's growth template card, is still far less defensive and experienced than Kidd, Meier is not one of the top star point guards in the NBA.
What's more, Wang Xiao has taught Jeremy Lin a lot of targeted defensive skills based on Meier's technical characteristics, if this can't prevent Meier, it is really impossible.
Meier wasn't alone.
Under the tactics of pressing all over the field, all the players on Meier's side were at a loss.
Wang Xiao's full-court pressing is not simply a one-on-one follow-up to the opponent, he has taught a lot of defensive skills to his players for all the players on the Meier side, for example, the big man of 2.11 meters, although he is very tall, but the lower handicap is unstable, as long as the opponent's lower handicap is killed when defending, he will not be able to enter the inside, and then for example, the scoring guard position......
Pat frowned.
As a part-time referee, he sees the situation very clearly on the field.
For three minutes, Meyer's side scored only two points from the free throw line, and nothing else.
However, the Asian kid in Wang Xiao's team continuously broke the opposite Meier in one-on-one heads-up, causing huge damage to the inside line of the conflict.
At present, the score of the two sides is 13:2, and Wang Xiao's side occupies an absolute advantage.
On one side is the absolute core of the Harvard varsity team for the past two years, and on the other side is several varsity bench members plus two amateurs selected from the basketball club.
However, the latter completely pressed the other party to fight again.
In just three minutes, Meyer was broken by Jeremy Lin five times! Failed to prevent it even once, and the gap in ability between the two was exposed.
Although the game will not end in more than ten minutes, Maite doesn't want to watch it anymore.
Thirteen minutes into the game, Maite unilaterally ended the game.
At that time, the score of the two sides was 31:14, and Wang Xiao's side led by 16 points.
16 points is not a huge score, but it is impossible to close the gap with less than 7 minutes left.
Jeremy Lin and the others cheered, while Meyer and the others hung their heads.
"The results are already clear." Wang Xiao smiled and said, "President Pat? ”
Pat shook his head. "It's a ridiculous game, it's unbelievable that I would agree to a game like this."
Thinking about it carefully, he was relieved again, in the final analysis, he was still skeptical about Wang Xiao's ability.
The reason why he agreed to this gambling game is more to see whether Wang Xiao is capable of leading Harvard University.
Now he has the answer.
He looked at Meier and the others, who were pale and already knew what the end awaited them.
"Meyer and six other players confronted the coach with a bad attitude and were expelled from the school team from today!"
