Chapter 892: Unexpected
If Li Liang is really provoked, a small part of it is because the American team played too hard, and the other half is definitely because the Chinese team played too hard.
The rest of the Chinese team now faces a serious problem – they can't even complete a dribble attack when they have the ball.
Including Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian is already the most stable point in the team except for Li Liang, but the American team obviously has a strong defense at the beginning.
The whole team of the United States team has made up their minds, although it is a warm-up game, they will also hold the Chinese team to death at the beginning.
Can you not fight to the death? Isn't that your Bruce Lee style of play consistent?
If Li Liang knew what the American team members were thinking, he would definitely say, "If you don't learn it, you will have some crooked ways of optics!" ”
Li Liang's style of play is indeed crooked, but he just leaves, the intensity is great, and the effect is strong.
At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team's offense continued to miss, because the outside cooperation could not be played, and it was too scattered.
But the U.S. team didn't open up the score gap either.
Because the defense of the Chinese team is not bad.
Under the command of Li Liang, the Chinese team carried out joint defense, forcing the American team to make a large number of outside shots.
The opening time of the American team was not good.
Jordan Jr. was still playing tricks on the inside, receiving the ball and turning his back to the basket and then wiping the board for a layup.
The body is turning, the board is wiping, but the ball is not touching the basket.
The score of 2:0 lasted for several minutes in the opening period.
Li Liang was not in a hurry, and kept feeding the ball to the inside, especially Wang Zhelin.
Hopefully, this kid can play a little bit of confidence and score one under Jordan Jr.'s defense.
It's a pity that Wang Zhelin's courage is okay, and his skills and physical fitness really can't keep up.
I took two hats from Little Jordan.
In Jordan Jr.'s view, every technical move of Wang Zhelin is slow motion.
The bounce is not good, and the height and arm span are not as good as his, so isn't it waiting to eat a hat.
Therefore, it can only be a commendable title of courage.
This 0:2 score is really uncomfortable, Li Liang feels that it is time to make his own move.
After grabbing this rebound, Li Liang did not pass the ball to his teammates again, and began to charge with the ball himself.
He had a good time at the time.
Because Jordan Jr. is the only person on the U.S. team who can carry him on the inside at the moment.
In FIBA rules, Jordan Jr. is more powerful than in the NBA.
He can always crouch in the three-second zone and wait for his opponent to send it to the door, and the big fly swatter will fan one after another.
This ball, little Jordan himself wants to play with flowers, and the speed of defense must be slow.
The American team did not have the strongest barrier, and Li Liang began to charge.
He dribbled all the way to the basket, and with a change of direction past DeRozan, there was only George under the basket.
George saw a pickup truck rushing towards him, thinking about it, forget it, and get out of the way.
Seeing Li Liang's hands slammed into a violent buckle!
A crisp dunk, who is saying that Li Liang can't dunk?
In terms of dunking, Li Liang has drifted away from his good friend Curry.
Then, DeRozan's outside mid-range jumper still missed.
The U.S. team's outside feel is ridiculously bad.
I don't know if I want to have an outstanding performance on Li Liang's head too much.
Li Liang will not be polite when he sees this, you don't feel good, then I will definitely come to teach you a lesson.
Li Liang, who counterattacked with the ball, still played by himself.
Li Liang's speed is not fast, but he sees the omission in the defense of the American team - the bottom line.
He scored the basket from the baseline, and after Jordan Jr. came to make up for it, he gave the ball to Yi Jianlian, who cut in the middle.
Yi Jianlian didn't waste Li Liang's pass, and after receiving the ball, he also dunked with both hands!
After the goal, the two high-fived, and the Chinese team overtook them.
The U.S. team's bad hand isn't over yet.
Anthony got an open three-pointer on the right side and missed.
Under the basket, Jordan won the rebound in the front court, passed to Anthony in the bottom corner and then shot.
Still not entering!
This Stamps basket added a cover to the U.S. team.
Jordan Jr. grabbed the frontcourt rebound again, and the layup was interfered with by Yi Jianlian and missed.
This time, Guo Allen got the ball and launched a counterattack, crossed to Li Liang, and was almost cut off.
Paul George's risky steal was unsuccessful and also caused him to lose his defensive position.
Li Liang got a three-point opportunity at 45 degrees on the left side, made a decisive shot, and hit!
7:2! The Chinese team actually led the American team 7:2 in the opening game.
The American players are depressed, and the fans in Los Angeles are even more depressed.
What about beating Bruce Lee?
Why do you vaguely feel like you're going to be beaten again?
With more than 3 points in the first quarter and nearly 4 minutes into it, the U.S. team was in an offensive crisis.
Coach K called a short timeout to make lineup adjustments.
Jordan Jr. was substituted, and K Sr. was replaced by Cousins to strengthen the team's offense.
But Cousins' low-post singles still didn't work.
And Li Liang immediately scored another three points.
The U.S. team made a big mistake in defense - they actually went to trap Guo Allen and let Li Liang go.
Li Liang received a pass from Guo Allen in his favorite left bottom corner.
Li Liang was a little stunned when he received the ball in the bottom corner of the left side.
A thought crossed his mind: Is this a trap? Psychological traps.
The U.S. team deliberately let him go and let him shoot, miss, to blow his confidence?
This thought only existed in Li Liang's mind for 0.1 seconds, and disappeared without a trace with Li Liang's "swish".
At this point, at this position, Li Liang doesn't even need to aim, he has it with his hands.
At 10:2, the Chinese team opened with a 10:2 against the American team.
Li Liang himself is happy to blossom, that's all? That's it? That's all for your American Dream Team?
I couldn't shoot a single shot from the outside, and the defense even let me go.
Who can't afford it?
However, Li Liang's three points can be regarded as waking up the American players.
You can't fight like this anymore, if you continue to fight like this, if you lose to Li Liang's Chinese team, you won't be able to turn over in this life.
DeRozan held the ball and singled Ding Yanyuhang, who was half a head taller than him.
Using his back body, in the ribs, a feint shook off Xiao Ding, and then a step to make a half-volley basket and hit the board.
An unpretentious shot, but helped the U.S. break the deadlock.
This is a very crucial goal, if the United States does not score again, Li Liang will fight back, he will really start beating the water dogs.
In Li Liang's style, it is not impossible to bombard indiscriminately in the first quarter.
On the Chinese team's side, Zhou Qi replaced Wang Zhelin.
Li Liang saw Zhou Qi asking for the ball in the low post, and he would still give it.
It's not that I trust Zhou Qi to succeed in singles, but to give young people the opportunity to get to know themselves.
Cousins isn't a master defender, but it's not that easy to impress Cousins in the low post.
As a result, Zhou Qi received the ball in the ribs, singled Cousins, pushed it a few times, and then pushed it near the three-point line......
The people in the low position are getting closer to the basket, and Zhou Qi is getting more and more out......
This Cousins had a "you are hard" expression, pushing Zhou Qi out.
In the end, Zhou Qi could only pass the ball to Li Liang, and Li Liang forced a three-point shot from the outside and missed it.
"Next time, use some force, use ingenuity, don't hard top!" Li Liang reminded Zhou Qi to use his own skills.
I don't know if he listened.
Then, the U.S. team still didn't find an offensive touch.
George's breakthrough didn't work well in China's Phalanx defence.
Got a frontcourt rebound and passed to Anthony from the outside, missed a three-point shot.
The Chinese team's defensive strategy tonight is very clear, that is, shrinking, joint defense, blocking the basket, and putting your outside shots.
Because Gong Luming knows that it is meaningless for you to defend against the shooting of the American team, it is better to concentrate your forces on the inside line and not be beaten into a sieve by the United States.
You can still bet on the outside shot, but if the inside line is broken, there is no way at all.
Not to mention, I really got the bet right tonight, and the shooting touch of the American outside line is really rotten.
And the opportunity for the Chinese team to counterattack, Zhao Jiwei used Li Liang's blocking and demolition to force a breakthrough, and after getting rid of Cousins, he made a difficult jump shot from a back and hit!
A nice shot!
In addition to Li Liang and Yi Jianlian, the third player of the Chinese team scored.
14:4, 10-point lead.
The Chinese team played unexpectedly well in the opening game.
