Chapter 114: The Wolf and the Tiger (2)
In terms of jumping ball, the frontier youth team has always been a disadvantaged group, after all, there is no absolute height in their lineup, and the tallest Cai Aihong is only more than two meters, this height is completely unattractive in the current level of competition, and to be honest, Cai Aihong's bounce ability is also extremely limited, he purely relies on physical strength and feel to eat.
Hawul, who is usually mainly responsible for jumping balls, has relatively good bounce and strength, but his height is only 1.96 meters.
So when facing Hong Kai, an inner line with a height of two meters and nine meters in eastern Guangdong Province, jumped the ball, Hawul only made a symbolic move.
Hong Kai was very cautious to pull the ball behind him, and the ball was won by the youth team of Guangdong Province.
Generally speaking, compared with southern players, northern players should have an advantage in height, while southern players are quite outstanding in agility and explosiveness, but now the two teams in the game are somewhat opposite, the frontier youth team uses fast attack and peripheral projection as the main tactics, while the Guangdong Province youth team is mainly based on the inside play, after all, their core players are inside.
In fact, the strength of the East Guangdong Youth Team is also very prominent, the point guard Zhao Yongji is not tall, but he is also a bull who has participated in the national youth team and has been selected for the national youth team, and Zhao Yongji's attack power is super strong, and his explosiveness and speed are the top among players of the same age.
However, now the popular style of play in the Republic and even the world is the inside line as the core of the play, even if it is not, it is basically a defensive counterattack and the inside axis of the main style of play, up and down, so almost most of the teams are like this, there are also people who want to make a fuss on the outside, but they can't jump out of the whole circle, sometimes the breadth of thinking is actually really affected by the environment, there is no way to jump out of the big circle, and there is no way to make articles on the outside.
Wang Lei is precisely because he started directly from outside the circle, so he can build such a team, if there is no experience in the earth's time and space, then Wang Lei is actually very likely to not be able to play on his own.
Zhao Yongji, the point guard of the Guangdong Provincial Youth Team, steadied himself after getting the ball, and waited for his teammates to pass half court before starting to advance.
Turgun actively pasted it, although Turgun has a certain advantage in height, but it can be seen from the size that he is definitely not Zhao Yongji's opponent in terms of strength.
After the Guangdong Provincial Youth Team was settled, Hong Kai occupied a 45-degree angle position, and Zhao Yongji did not have a single and hoisted the ball into the inside.
This time, the Frontier Province youth team used a man-to-man defense, and Hawul withstood Hong Kai from behind.
Before the start of the game, Li Baofeng, the head coach of the youth team of Guangdong Province, gave the team a detailed introduction to the opponent's situation, for this seemingly inconspicuous opponent, Li Baofeng is relatively more important, and can get the first place in the northern division of the strong team, which is enough to see the strength of this frontier youth team, so Li Baofeng does not dare to underestimate Wang Lei and his team.
Hong Kai immediately felt Hawul's huge strength after taking the ball, and the coach pointed out that the short man of the frontier youth team is very strong inside, but he is inexperienced, so Hong Kai intends to play one directly after the opening game to open up the situation for the team.
Hong Kai waited for his teammates to open up space, then retreated with his right foot and turned to face Hawul, and then made a shooting move, but the inexperienced Hawul did not jump rashly, and did not boldly stick up, just faintly covered Hong Kai's shooter with his hand.
Seeing that the opponent was unmoved, and someone had already caught him, Hong Kai, who was originally going to feint and shake off Hawul, shot directly.
After all, Hawul is limited in height, and it is too late to interfere with the shooting at this time, and Hong Kai still maintains a good feel and control when this rhythm is a little interrupted, and the basketball accurately drills into the basket, and the Guangdong Provincial Youth Team opens the scoring.
Wang Lei did not ask the team to play a consistent joint defense in this game, he knew that it was impossible to use joint defense to limit the opponent, after all, the youth team of Guangdong Province has a very good strength inside and outside.
Turgun dribbled through the half court and met Zhao Yongji's tight defense, Zhao Yongji faced the strange appearance and chic style of Turgong when he was still vaguely jealous of the opponent, although he is now the main player of the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce men's basketball youth team in eastern Guangdong Province, but all along, his basketball career has not been smooth, when he was Turgun's age, he was just a water cooler on the bench and a towel-waving cheerleader supernumerary member, Now a high school student who has not received professional training can play the team's main point guard, which more or less makes Zhao Yongji feel a little emotional.
Zhao Yongji, who had an idea in his heart, wanted to give Turgun a little color, so he played very hard from the beginning, and his defense was also very tough.
Turgun didn't look flustered in the face of his opponent's very tough defense, he dribbled and changed direction continuously, and then got rid of Zhao Yongji's defense under the cover of Cai Aihong, who was mentioned to the high post.
Hong Kai didn't dare to be careless, and immediately made up for it, and everyone who watched the Frontier Youth Team game knew how accurate the opponent's point guard shot was.
However, at this time, Turgun passed the ball very skillfully behind his back and passed the ball to Cai Aihong, who was squeezing Zhao Yongji with his back.
Cai Aihong almost didn't pause after receiving the ball, and in the face of Zhao Yongji, who was more than one head shorter, Cai Aihong shot directly.
The basketball is also very accurate into the basket, and Cai Aihong, like Turgon, started the game very well.
Both teams started the game smoothly, and both sides played relatively simple, with two or three people attacking in a small area.
Just when the players of the frontier youth team were retreating, the youth team of Guangdong Province, which had always played advance positional battles in the past, suddenly made a change.
Hong Kai, who served from the bottom line, made a direct long cross to Zhao Yongji near the middle circle.
Zhao Yongji immediately accelerated after receiving the ball, and at this time, the retreat of the frontier youth team had not yet been settled, and only Turgun retreated in place.
In the face of the defense posted by Turgon, Zhao Yongji jumped directly to the basket very toughly.
Turgun still underestimated Zhao Yongji's explosiveness, he not only lost his defensive position, but also let the opponent score the ball steadily, the whistle blew, and the referee also awarded the ball Turgun a foul.
The change of the youth team of Guangdong Province can be said to be very sudden, even the youth team of Frontier Province, which has always been known for its speed, did not expect it, Wang Lei was also a little frowning on the sidelines, it seems that the opponent is also a team with a lot of ideas.
Turgun rubbed his hair a little frustratedly, thinking that he shouldn't have put it on when his opponent jumped, so not only did he not defend it, but he also took his own foul.
