From the North Gate coaching bench on the sidelines, Mao Kai watched the situation on the field change with satisfaction.

Beimen's overtake was within his expectation.

When the league started, on the same venue, when Zhenzhong defeated Hongyuan with a crushing offensive in the third quarter, Mao Kai once said something to Zhou Tianchen:

The Zhenzhong school team has a fatal flaw.

The fatal flaw is that the strength gap between the main players and substitute players in the Zhenzhong school team is too huge.

This weakness may not necessarily be discovered and exploited when encountering ordinary opponents.

But if it encounters an evenly matched or even superior opponent, Zhenzhong will inevitably fall into a tough fight.

The first three minutes of the second quarter confirmed coach Maokai's accurate judgment.

But at the same time, in the stands at that time, Mao Kai also said something else:

Although Zhenzhong has a fatal flaw, it is not possible for their North Gate to kill him with one strike.

Because Zhenzhong has the ultimate superstar presence.

Maokai turned his head and looked at the bench of Zhenzhong Campus Team, where Lin Weirui and the others were recovering their strength.

He knew that their North Gate didn't have many chances. Only when more than two members of Zhenzhong's trident were resting off the court, could they rely on their iron-blooded defense to suppress Zhenzhong and overtake the score at the same time.

Once the Zhenzhong Trident takes the rotation, their North Gate players will still face a very unfavorable situation.

These were all within Maokai's plan, but he had nothing to do.

He glanced at Zhou Tianchen who was organizing an attack on the field.

That is the most outstanding member of their school team in recent years. In the first five-star high school rankings, Zhou Tianchen ranked 10th, which is not bad.

but……

When encountering the monster-like Zhenzhong No. 3, which might not appear in decades, Mao Kai only felt a headache.

On the other side, Lin Lei saw that his team was in trouble, so he decisively called a timeout after another dead ball.

Chen Hua and the others returned to the bench, their expressions not very good.

As the head coach, Lin Lei stood on the sidelines and cheered the players one by one.

"It's just 5 points behind. Don't be downhearted."

"Chen Hua, you have to give full play to your speed advantage. When faced with double teams, you must either decisively pass the ball to an open teammate, or break through more decisively."

"Hesitating will only give the opponent a chance to steal."

"Mo Ming will take a rest later. Zhou Lv, you come on. Since they have a five-small lineup, we will also play a five-small lineup."

While Lin Lei was arranging tactics on the sidelines, he called Lin Weirui to his side.

"You continue to rest and conserve your energy. It's not time for you to play yet."

As the head coach of Zhenzhong, Lin Lei attaches great importance to this game.

Just as many people in the basketball hall had guessed, their Zhenzhong coaching team was determined to use the highly disciplined Beimen school team as a grindstone for their players.

If a mature team wants to go far and reach the quarterfinals, semifinals or even the finals, it cannot rely solely on the performance of one or two people.

Lin Weirui is their ace player in Zhenzhong, and Lin Lei knows that when he is on the court, Zhenzhong is very good at organizing the offense and tearing apart the North Gate's defense.

But Lin Lei, Fan Jun and others, at the beginning of this game, deliberately let other players charge forward to feel the pressure and tension brought by a strong defensive team.

The purpose is to cultivate the resistance ability of other new players.

Lin Weirui, Yue Zhanye, and Zhou Lu, because of Xu Jie's training, their defensive awareness and ability to withstand pressure are all very good.

Even when faced with the defense of the North Gate Iron Barrel Formation, they could remain calm.

But newcomers like Chen Hua rarely feel the pressure of extreme defense on the court.

Once they suddenly encounter a pressing defense, they will easily make mistakes, and some may even suffer technical deformations.

This is a perfectly normal thing.

Lin Lei and the others just want to do a stress test.

They want to see how different lineups of their team will perform when facing strong enemies.

Only after a stress test can their coaching team make targeted arrangements and training.

This is an inevitable process for a team to mature.

Although Zhenzhong has achieved six consecutive victories, Lin Lei and the others have never been complacent.

Because their goal is not to win one or two games in the league.

Their goal is directly to win the championship.

Under such a premise, Lin Lei knows that the current team still has a lot of detailed work to do, and the players still have a lot of room for improvement.

A true master always has the heart of a disciple.

beep……

The referee's whistle blows and the timeout ends.

When coach Maokai saw the players playing in Zhenzhong, he frowned.

He also did not expect that Zhenzhong still did not choose to let their ace Lin Weirui play when they were falling behind.

Maokai snorted coldly.

Isn't this kind of personnel arrangement looking down on their Beimen school team a little too much?

Before the game started, Maokai had done a sandbox simulation with other members of the coaching team.

They came to the conclusion that when Lin Weirui, Yue Zhanye, and Zhou Lu were on the court at the same time, no matter how good the defense of Beimen was, using wheel fighting, the defense would be torn apart by the super strength and tacit cooperation of the three.

This is a reality they don't want to see but have to face.

When two of them are on the court, their North Gate relies on iron-blooded defense and is definitely capable of fighting.

And if only one of the three is present, then Maokai and the others are sure to beat Zhenzhong on the court.

Whether it was the first quarter or the opening three minutes of the second quarter, their simulation was confirmed.

But at this time, the game has entered a relatively anxious stage in the second quarter, and Zhenzhong is still 5 points behind, but Lin Lei and the others still do not plan to send out the full lineup.

This made Maokai very unhappy.

On the court, the game continues.

Chenhua controls the ball and organizes the offense.

He is a proud and arrogant senior.

Once, one person and one goal, he broke into the territory of the senior high school students and challenged the senior seniors.

Being able to be selected by the school team when he was a freshman in high school shows his talent and strength.

After entering the school team, except for Lin Weirui who defeated him, he was actually unconvinced by the other seniors.

Even with the team's main point guard Wei Xiaotian, Chen Hua always felt that he was stronger than him.

Geniuses are all arrogant.

But before a genius truly grows up, he will also have shortcomings of one kind or another.

Chen Hua's shortcoming is that he has never suffered fatal blows or setbacks on the court.

But today's game gave him a heavy blow.

After coming on as a substitute, facing the fierce defense of North Gate, in just three minutes, as Zhenzhong's point guard, he rarely made three low-level mistakes.

The coach's scolding during the timeout was aimed at his low-level mistakes.

Chen Hua is arrogant, his heart is roaring, he must not make the same mistake again!

Faced with Beimen's iron-blooded defense, Chen Hua, who is the most talented among the newcomers.
Chapter completed!
