218 Have you ever heard of Zone?

The U.S. team rotated.

Jay down, T.J. Ford up;

Chandler, who had been mediocre for the first two or three minutes, went down and Bosh went on.

Frankly speaking, except for the person who faced Lin Dong, everyone else in this American team has the strength to eat the international team players, but they have not relied on their personal ability to play a crushing effect before.

The reason is of course that Lin Dong's organization constantly creates trouble for the American team and bites the score.

But more importantly, it is the international team's relatively excellent defensive ability.

To put it bluntly, throughout the first quarter and the first two or three minutes of the second quarter, compared to the Americans constantly relying on their individual ability to solve problems, in fact, it was the international team that looked more like a whole, so that the members of the international team had the illusion that the American team would not cooperate as a whole.

But in fact, when Americans play team basketball, especially when the team is coached by the old K, the gap is immediately apparent.

The U.S. team's training camp during this period is not just a heads-up game, but more tactical training.

Old K's offensive basketball style is somewhat Princeton's shadow, emphasizing tactical running and misplaced blocking, and using space and misalignment to win.

And TJ Ford was ordered to be in danger, originally when Jay came on the court, he was ready to sit on the bench for the remaining three quarters, but he didn't expect God to give him another chance so soon.

TJ's playmaking skills can be used as a qualified starting guard even now in the NBA, and his average of 12 assists per game during a 62-game winning streak and even 19 assists per game is enough to show his playmaking talent.

Coupled with his unmatched speed, the U.S. team suddenly became fluid on the offensive end under his pin-threading lead.

Bosh and Wade's pick-and-roll misalignments, Kwame Brown's and T.J. Ford's pick-and-roll misalignments, whether big or small, are more comfortable in the hands of these guys, not to mention the open opportunities that rely on strong athleticism.

Even taking advantage of Lin Dong's defense, even Anthony, who had been transparent before, threw in a mid-range shot, which finally allowed the offensive kaleidoscope to break his personal scoring drought.

The defense of the international team is only slightly inferior in single defense, but when it comes to blocking and dismantling in the face of more capable people, it is almost impossible to defend.

The U.S. rotation began to attack fluidly, and the international team's defense was quickly swept away.

And turning his head on the defensive end, Anthony was finally liberated, and it was Bosh who defended Lindong.

Compared to Anthony, the young Dragons were already hailed as an excellent defender in the draft, with strong blocking ability and help defense ability, good lateral movement speed, and no shaking.

More importantly, he had participated in the defense of Lin Dong on the field before, and he had been observing since he got off the field, and there were perspectives from insiders and outsiders, which undoubtedly increased his understanding and adaptability to Lin Dong, and his vigilance against Lin Dong was sufficient.

So when switching positions to defend Lin Dong, these advantages were undoubtedly used and displayed by Bosh.

Although Lin Dong is still able to shoot and pass, leading the attack of the international team, and forcibly pulling the international team that has begun to get tired on the middle line of the tug-of-war with the American team.

But scouts who really have a little experience can see that Lin Dong's performance at this time is far less relaxed than before.

The international team's previous offensive time was usually about 12 seconds, but by the end of the second quarter, the international team's offensive time had dragged to an average of about 17 seconds.

Because even with Lin Dong's pull, it is difficult for others to get rid of the defenders of the American team to find vacant opportunities, and even if Lin Dong attracts away defenders and barely gets out of the vacant position, but due to the decline in hand and confidence caused by frequent iron, the shooting speed is relatively slow, and the defenders re-defend, forcing them to throw the ball back to Lin Dong.

There were several balls that Lin Dong had to choose to end the attack by himself when he still couldn't find a teammate after nearly 24 seconds of violations.

And even if Lin Dong shot, with Bosh's full defense and the overall cooperation of the team, Lin Dong's shooting rate is far less exaggerated than before.

In the second half of the second quarter, he shot 4-of-6 from the field, shooting 66.6 percent, including 2 of 2 three-pointers who still shot 100 percent, and the two that were missed were outside shots when there was really no chance on the outside, facing the inside shots of Bosh and Anthony, and forced mid-range iron when they were close to 24 seconds.

For any other player, this may already be a super high offensive efficiency, but now even American media reporters have been unconsciously pulled up by Lin Dong, compared to his almost 100 shots in the first quarter, this shooting percentage has dropped a lot.

The team was even worse, with the four shooting a total of 16 shots in the second half of the second quarter, including four secondary shots, but only a measly 7-of-7, and their overall shooting percentage slipped to 43.7 percent.

Not only is the shooting rate low, but it is also the rebounds that want the international team's life.

A Kwame Brown is enough to make them uncomfortable, plus an Anthony who was previously made a little transparent by Lin Dong and has nowhere to release his firepower, Dacomi Mirisic and Nickloz began to be in a state of being completely blown up, not only were they attacked one after another on the offensive end, but the rebounds of both sides in the entire second quarter were 17:7, of which 5 offensive rebounds, and 3 were picked up by Lin Dong in the chaos.

The defensive rebounds were directly dominated by the United States team, with 10:2 defensive rebounds and losing by 8 opponents.

Younas knew Lin Dong's intentions, and he also knew that he wanted to help Lin Dong drag the game to the fourth quarter, and began to make frequent substitutions, but it was obviously not good.

The role of the little shark who was brought on the court in advance is quite limited, although Anthony's confrontation is not as good as Chandler, but the ball is smarter than Chandler, and small actions such as withdrawing the stool at critical moments are constantly staged, plus the little shark actually did not rest enough, and his physical strength was exhausted, even if he fought down a rebound on the defensive end, he could not keep up with the rhythm of the offensive and defensive conversion between the two sides during the fast attack, which always caused the team to play four to five.

This guy is not only physically injured, but also his speed.

After that, Younas began to use substitution tactics frequently, successively replacing Mazilampe and Nickloz, and using the physical strength of the new force to impact the inside, but in the face of the Americans who have already played high, it is still of limited effect.

The international team was a little confused.

The performance of the two teams in the entire second quarter seemed to be a whole level apart, if it wasn't for Lin Dong saving the game one after another, I was afraid that the game would be ruined.

The seven-point gap was quickly erased, and by the end of the second quarter, the U.S. team had already achieved a comeback.

52:58, the score of the single quarter is 26:33.

Although it was not an official game, there was plenty of twenty minutes at halftime for the players to recover.

The U.S. team high-fived the substitutes one by one when they left the game, but on the international team's side, except for a red-haired Japanese who was still full of energy, everyone else was obviously a little silent and depressed, and even high-fived him without any energy.

Lin Dong glanced at the score on the scoreboard.

Difference of 6 points......

Frankly, it was about the same as the first-half score he had expected, and it was a perfectly acceptable range.

But unlike the premise of the point difference that I expected, in the first half of the time, I was already starting to exert my strength...... Although I didn't go all out and didn't open the zone, I didn't play easily.

The overall performance of the international team is too unsatisfactory, not that they are not playing at a normal level, but that this American team is stronger than they and Younas imagined, because they have the old K!

The guy who stood on the sidelines and held his hands not only interrupted his personal killing of those future supergiants in time several times, but also used NCAA's unique team basketball to build the American team into an extremely balanced whole at both offensive and defensive ends, which made the American team break through the so-called balance line and completely override the international team in terms of overall strength, which is the gap from quantitative change to qualitative change.

The bigger reason why he was able to make such a point difference was that he took the lead in the first quarter, taking advantage of the American team and playing two waves of small climaxes in advance.

But now that the U.S. team has returned to normal, it is the international team that is starting to lose confidence...... If you use this state to meet the third quarter of the Americans, then I am afraid that you can only explode early.

However, can you really use the zone mode to play the whole game when you have already consumed 30% of your physical strength?

Even with the physical strength of Mike Dawei's original knee pads, this is probably almost impossible to do.

And it will break out too early in the third quarter, which will give Lao K enough time to respond and adjust, then his advantage will not be so great, and it will be impossible to really take what he wants.

Gotta think of ideas.

Sakuragi's rebounds can be expected, anyway, the current European interior line has been stunned, even if Sakuragi is useless on the court, it will not be worse than them.

And Sakuragi has been holding back on the sidelines for a long time, just now he kept pulling the corner of his clothes to hand himself the color, and it should be full of horsepower to let him go up at this time, at least it can bring some vitality and momentum to the team.

You can suggest it to Younas, but it's just a dead horse as a live horse doctor, after all, looking at the current state of the American team, the defense is temporarily uncontrollable, and if you want to bite the score, you can only rely on scoring.

Zhu Fangyu can play, although his competitiveness on the inside line is not as good as that of Mazie Lampey, and his ability to hold the ball is far inferior to Alexander's position in the quarterback position, but he has a benefit, he has a good cooperation with himself, and the empty 3 points on the outside line are good, and more importantly, this guy is not like those European players who have their own plans in mind, Lao Zhu can completely ignore his own performance 100% to help Lin Dong win......

But that's still not enough, and it doesn't really ease the pressure on the offensive end.

Lin Dong didn't rush to interrupt Younas's advice about Dacomi Milicic's mistake under the basket.

He swept his gaze around, only to see that the scouts around him were scribbling hard, recording in detail the performance of several guys who had been confirmed to participate in this year's draft.

The reporters on the sidelines and the celebrities in the stands can finally laugh easily.

Normal, probably in the eyes of these guys, the current game has finally entered a normal rhythm, and this is the gap between the United States and the world.

Well?

Out of the corner of his eye, he swept in the direction of a guy wearing an international team uniform walking towards the toilet, and his back looked a little lonely.

Lin Dong's heart moved.

Now the international team has too few cards in their hands, and if they want to win, they have to make use of everything, and mosquito legs are also meat......

He stood up and followed.

Hush...... Rushing......

The sound of flushing after urinating.

Rukawa Kaede lifted his pants and walked out of the toilet and put water in front of the sink.

While washing his hands, he instantly flushed his face, and then looked at the dripping face in front of the mirror, Rukawa Kaede's brows furrowed slightly.

Today's performance and playing time were all expected by him, but even if he was mentally prepared, when he sat on the bench, he still couldn't hold back the loss in his heart.

But at this moment, a voice sounded by the door.

"Hey."

Liuchuan Feng looked back and saw that it was Lin Dong.

He also thought that Lin Dong was going to use the sink, and said while turning off the water: "Right away." ”

Lin Dong laughed: "Today's performance is not like you who caused me trouble during the winter selection." ”

Ruchuan Feng was slightly stunned, obviously he didn't expect Lin Dong to come and say such things to him, as if he had some expectations for him.

I know my own level, not to mention the American team opposite, even if these European players are indeed stronger than him in terms of individual ability.

"Miracles don't happen all the time." Rukawa Kaede said calmly: "Otherwise, it won't be called a miracle." ”

"That's not necessarily, there are many things in this world that you don't know yet, such as ......" Lin Dong said with a smile: "Do you know what a zone is?" ”

The first update arrived
