Chapter 495 You choose another number!(1/2)
Luda's ineffective dunk inevitably caused the morale of the American team to plummet, but after all, everyone has received a more painful blow. It would not be necessary to break the defense of such humiliation. Many people even think that the intensity is right, and the God of Basketball is having trouble with you!
American players turned around and focused on offense. Dad Chuck actually did not place his hope of defeating the Chinese team on defense.
These big names who have only trained for less than two months for temporary training, and even if they practice for 18 hours a day, they will not be able to develop a defensive system to cope with the Chinese team.
If they want to defeat the powerful Chinese team, they can only fully utilize their offensive talent. There is no team on this earth that can defeat the Chinese team through defense.
Team USA launched an attack, the Magician's dribble was very stable, and he was suffering from a stubborn disease this year, and he was more selfless than ever.
Jordan soon received the pass. At this time, he was selfless and more than the Magicians were active. Ewing, who was inside, did not hesitate at all and immediately pulled out to cover it.
Zhang Yongjun was cursing in his heart. Jordan was enough to beat him up one-on-one. At this time, he actually wanted cover before rushing in. Isn’t it too respectful to him?
Jordan is not respecting Zhang Yongjun, he is respecting Luda and respecting the Chinese team.
At this time, Luda was already pulled to the far end by Da Meng. Of course, he could not let go of this only American successor and went to assist in defense. Da Meng, who is 25 years old this year, also needs to respect him.
"I heard that you secretly learned my dream steps and I couldn't see the home in a while!"
Of course, Lu Da would not just watch the show. Taking advantage of this opportunity to get along alone, Da Meng almost broke his defense in one sentence.
Olajuwon's mentality was not that bad, but who made this the weak point he was the least willing to be raised?
But in the past four years, I have been used by the media and hostile fans to stab the younger generation. Now I am naturally more sensitive to the main owner.
At this time, Luda was led out of the penalty area, but Ma Donglong immediately showed his value. Not only did he pull it out during Ewing's cover, but when Jordan used the cover to kill the inside, he actually moved his two long legs and locked Jordan's attack space.
Jordan also felt the defensive pressure that covered the sky and the sun. At this time, the Little Pan, who was at the peak of his athletic ability, even though he could not find any opportunity to shoot at the basket. Instead, he felt a big umbrella always shrouding him along the way. In the end, he could only jump into the air with his extraordinary physical fitness and found his teammates who were supporting him.
Larry Bird received a pass from the Flying Pan, and Zhang Jixian followed, but in the face of the perfect rhythm and fake moves of the big bird, he was shaken away from the center of defense. The United States scored two points with a simple mid-range jump shot from Larry Bird.
The American audience at the scene immediately gave a cheer with all kinds of ridicule of the Chinese team, but the problem was that such an ordinary mid-range shot score was so excited, and it felt a bit harsh and cowardly.
The Chinese team will naturally not be affected. Ma Donglong quickly sent the ball, and Luda, who received the ball, was almost at midfield.
How could the US team forget the Chinese team's running and shooting? The Magician and Ewing, who had just pulled out to cover, almost turned around and returned to defense when Bird shot. This was the move they were wary of.
At this time, the Magician had already defended Luda and was preparing to interfere with Luda's second pass, thereby delaying the Chinese team's fast attack.
But he never expected that Luda not only did not choose to pass the ball, but instead accelerated and made a strong breakthrough!?
The Americans don’t know that Ruda has good dribbling skills, but they didn’t expect that Ruda would even dare to dribble through by himself in the face of the Magician’s defense. This is not too much to take the number one point guard in American history seriously?
But then again, the magician is more than two meters tall, only two or three centimeters shorter than Luda.
Then why can you magician play point guard? Luda, the "God of Basketball", "Flying Man", "Answer", "Truth", and "UFO" who beat the US team, can't do it?
Luda said that he could not only break through the magician. Facing Ewing who rushed to make up for defense, he even slowed down and shook him away easily with a large range of shaking left and right. Finally, he leaned against all the brute force but couldn't use Ewing to pull the ball up.
"beep!"
The referee did not hesitate and almost urged Ewing to a foul with a look of enjoyment. This was a textbook-like "Chinese layup", a 2 plus 1 that cannot be rejected!
Now it was the turn of a small number of Chinese audiences at the scene to cheer, and more neutral fans also gave applause!
Although Luda's ball was not a dunk, after violently passing the Magician, he ended the attack with a sudden "Chinese step" of painting style. In fact, it is not weak in viewing, especially the last layup leaning against Ewing, which is simply pleasing to the eye. This is another art!
"The strength has increased a lot, but the defensive skills have not improved at all. If you stay in the NBA, you will be ruined!"
Luda looked at Ewing, who had raised his hands and was completely useless, and turned around and turned into a heart-wrenching trash talk.
Ewing was speechless. If this sentence was said four years ago, he would definitely retort!
But the gorilla, who had already been convinced by Luda at this moment, had no other dissatisfaction except for resisting the saying "no progress", because Luda was qualified to say that.
We have to mention the "China Step" here. At this time, the commentators from all countries were popularizing the last large-scale breakthrough layup that swayed left and right in front of the replay just now, that is, the "China Step layup".
Originally, the founder of this pace has never been able to confirm, and the origin cannot be verified. The most common saying is that European players first used an extraordinary pace when layups, so it is called European step.
As for the first person to use it to carry it forward, one statement was Soviet star Sarunas Matthew Leonis, but the most accepted statement was brought into the NBA arena by Argentine legend Manu Ginobili.
But no matter which statement it is, the earliest timeline is coming to the 1990s, and Ginobili will still be a primary school student now.
However, Luda, who is in this plane, brought it into the World Championships and promoted it as early as the 1982 World Championships, and even used it in the Club World Cup a year earlier. Many Lakers fans still remember that game.
But in contrast, Europe did not have many similar layup techniques at this time, and even if there were, they were far less gorgeous and effective than Ludalai's. For example, Matthew Leonis, who was in the Soviet team, had never shown such a picturesque layup pace.
But in recent years, many Chinese players have learned this extraordinary skill, so this extraordinary pace is naturally called the "Chinese step".
"Wait, why do I feel that this action is so extraordinary as a pendulum?"
"Yes, it's really similar. Could it be that it's developed from the extraordinary people on Wu Jie's football field?"
"It must be like this. This 'Chinese Step' should be called a pendulum talent!"
“…”
But what is unexpected is that a group of football fans who came from the Green Field actually helped the "Chinese Step" find a new ancestor, and it sounds reasonable and well-founded. Who made this step really need to swing left and right like a pendulum?
While the commentators from various countries were still focusing on the unique extraordinary pace of the Chinese team, Luda had easily made a penalty and helped the team take the lead by one point.
Team USA naturally had to fight back, but this offense almost ended with a 24-second violation.
Chuck's father's expression was even more worried. The Chinese team's personal ability was obviously not as good as theirs, but with its nearly perfect defensive system, especially the fast rotation + fill-up with the high-altitude center as the axis, it actually made it difficult for them to find a suitable opportunity to make a single-player superstar.
When Dameng finally received the pass at the low post he liked, there was the tall and strong center among the two players defending him.
Ma Donglong's defense this time really made many people secretly shocked, because he first blocked the position and blocked Jordan's breakthrough, and then returned to Ewing in time to face him without missing anyone. Finally, with only three seconds left in the offensive time, he formed a joint double-team with Luda against Dameng.
This outrageous mobility is like turning on a clone. American players feel that there is such an unattainable figure everywhere, and he is like a ghost everywhere!
Dameng finally had to force his attack because Wu Jie was already on Ewing's passing route. He could not find any other pass target in a short period of time, so he could only throw the ball with a big back.
But this kind of shooting is just to avoid being blocked by Ma Donglong and Luda, so the accuracy is naturally biased to grandma's house. If it were Jordan, it would be free to give it to him. And the pot was thrown by Jordan.
At this time, Wu Jie rushed to the basket at some point and actually picked up a rebound under the basket. His face suddenly burst into laughter!
Today, not only Ma Donglong is everywhere, but even Wu Jie is doing bad things everywhere!
He was waiting for an opportunity to intercept the ball just now, but in a blink of an eye he had already rushed to the basket to grab the rebound. This was the first time this enthusiasm had appeared from him.
But it is precisely because of this that the Chinese team can make up for it. Ma Donglong can't do this alone.
Lao Qian was a little inexplicably excited to see this scene on the sidelines because this is the seamless defense in his mind. It seems that these little guys really put in all their strength!
Wu Jie did not reserve today. After getting the rebound, he launched a fast break and rushed to the opponent's halftime with all his strength.
The US team's retreat this time is not timely to change to other opponents, but it is still a bit slow to face the Chinese team's fast attack.
This is mainly because the magician was forcibly overtaken by Wu Jie in the blink of an eye, but the point guard who was more than two meters high was not fast, not to mention that he was not young anymore and his condition was not good today.
After Wu Jie forced himself to overtake the Magician, he actually formed a 2-for-2 match with Ruda who followed the other side. This time, neither Larry Bird nor Dameng could keep up.
Jordan looked at Wu Jie who was sprinting like a wind from the corner of his eyes, and did not dare to stop and delay the obstacle. Doing so would only make Wu Jie pass by like a gust of wind.
He knew in his heart that this time the defense was probably out of reach, because as the defensive side, Wu Jie's speed was too passive, and Wu Jie's speed was too amazing.
But Jordan still didn't expect Wu Jie to slow down suddenly and change direction. At this time, he could only passively follow Wu Jie in the same direction and stop in the same direction.
"A sniff!"
The audience at the scene heard two harsh friction sounds that made the teeth sore. It was the reaction caused by violent friction between the sneakers and the floor!
At this moment, the physical fitness level was also revealed. If Stockton dared to follow Wu Jie's rhythm and change direction, the result would be that his ankle could not withstand the heavy pressure and was injured, and at least he would have to fall a big butt.
But Jordan actually followed Wu Jie and stopped the car. The most terrifying thing was that his physical balance was not lost. When Wu Jie changed direction again, he actually followed the rhythm.
Wu Jie was shocked. His two consecutive sudden stops and directions were almost at their limit. Jordan could still keep up with the rhythm. No wonder there were classic shots of defending Iverson. He was in his thirties at that time!
But that's the problem, the defense side is always passive!
Jordan's ankle reversal twice in a row also reached its limit. Seeing that Wu Jie changed his hand from behind and changed his breakthrough direction, he could no longer keep up with such a limiting rhythm, so he could only watch Wu Jie wipe it from his side.
Wu Jie was not excited at this moment. If it were Jordan who had just traveled through time and would have passed his peak period like this, he would have been so excited that he couldn't sleep.
But at this time, he even shook Maradona. Just breaking through Jordan at this time, it would not allow him to have too many emotional fluctuations.
Moreover, the old hooligan's defense has already bought time for the US team to return to defense. He can no longer break through, and can only break into the three-point line and jump shot.
At this time, in Wu Jie's mind, his expected breakthrough to break through Jordan, his plan to complete a "Chinese step" has been destroyed.
"Bang!"
Even Wu Jie's shooting range is only about 50% of the shooting rate, so this miss is of course very reasonable.
But if it were combined with Jordan's defense just now, Wu Jie felt that his attack could even be considered to be defensive this time.
"Get in!"
Luda said that although you are being defended, no one can defend you, even the gorillas in their peak period can do it.
Ewing was only one step slower than Ruda and ran to the basket. Although his starting position was higher than Ruda, as a center, it was already amazing to have such speed, because Ruda was racing against him!
But speed alone is not enough. Ewing tragically found that he was stuck behind by Ruda. He had no chance of this rebound, so he could only watch Ruda raise his hand and click the basketball that popped out from behind. The tip-off that made him desperate was completed.
"That number 8 is a bit difficult, but fortunately I am facing the magician, so I will come out to block it later!"
Wu Jie ran to Luda when he returned to defense and said that although he almost completed a historical defense by Jordan, he thought that even Jordan at the peak would find it difficult to defend him. Then the magician who was no longer at the peak and was still suffering from a terminal illness would naturally be the rooster that he would knead.
Even if Lu Da nodded, he knew that Wu Jie was preparing to play pick-and-roll tactics with him, but this was also one of his favorite ways of playing.
As for who "No. 8" is, of course, he is embarrassed to choose "No. 23" after entering the league.
This is what you can tell why by referring to Luda’s “No. 24”, but Jordan will eventually re-elect “No. 8”, which is beyond his expectations and Wu Jie.
