The basketball was beating rapidly under Lu Yu's crotch, and Andre Miller's eyes were fixed on Lu Yu's shoulders. As an experienced defensive player, he knew that no matter how the basketball deceived people, the player's shoulders and center of gravity would not deceive people.
Lu Yu suddenly moved. When the basketball reached his right hand, he quickly changed direction in front of his body.
Andre Miller quickly moved a small step to the right.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu didn't break through. The basketball in his left hand "popped" directly from his crotch to his right hand. Andre Miller knew that he had been cheated. Fortunately, he didn't move much center of gravity. He was steady.
Withdrew.
Lu Yu changed direction again.
Andre Miller hesitated. He didn't know if it was another fake move this time.
At the moment when he hesitated, Lu Yu took a step back, rose into the air, floated in the air, flicked his wrist, and shot a three-pointer.
Andre Miller tried to pounce again, but unfortunately the basketball had already been taken.
"Whoosh!"
The basketball hit the net.
"Beautiful!" Sun Yiping shouted excitedly: "Lu Yu's series of dribblings made Andre Miller hesitate. He didn't know which of Lu Yu's moves was real and which was fake... Lu Yu had no choice.
Breakthrough, although the opponent turned to man-to-man defense, Lu Yu still chose to take a three-point shot. He wanted to let the United States know that the Chinese men's basketball team is still a sharp knife from the outside!"
Wang Fei let out a long sigh of relief after seeing him finish the fight.
As long as Lu Yu can maintain his aggressiveness on the outside, the United States will not dare to relax its vigilance on the outside. No matter how strong Andre Miller and O'Neal are in scoring, they will definitely be able to hold on to the score.
…
Andre Miller of the U.S. team made a breakthrough layup, but Liu Wei failed to guard him.
There was a bit of commotion on the court at this time. There was a conflict between Ben Wallace and Yao Ming in the fight under the basket. Yao Ming signaled the referee Wallace to pull him, otherwise he would not have had time to cover Miller's shot.
basket.
The referee ignored him.
Yao Ming's arms were pulled out with bloodstains, his eyes suddenly turned red, and the court gradually smelled of gunpowder.
…
Immediately afterwards, Yao Ming caught the ball from the basket and scored with a backhand hook!
All Chinese fans cheered, and various signs cheering for the Chinese team were held high.
…
Wang Zhizhi's high shot and Lu Yu's sudden shot from outside the three-point line allowed the Chinese team to take the lead for the first time.
27:26
The Chinese fans in the audience burst into applause, and the fans in front of the TV also cheered. If the Chinese team had not been ahead by the United States by more than ten points before, it would have been good luck. Unexpectedly, not long after entering the second quarter, the Chinese team took the lead.
.
The U.S. team requested a timeout, and when they came on the court again, Andre Miller was replaced by Baron Davis, Wang Fei also replaced Yao Ming with Battelle, and Zhu Fangyu replaced Li Nan.
His eyes stayed on Yi Jianlian for a few seconds, but he still gave up. The opponent in this game was too strong, so there were not many opportunities for him to make mistakes.
Lu Yu was still on the court. He saw that Yi Jianlian did not come up and knew that Wang Fei was still a little worried about Yi Jianlian's use.
In fact, according to Yi Jianlian's current strength, Lu Yu feels that he is no worse than the others. You must know that Yi Jianlian will definitely participate in the draft next year, and there is a high probability that he will be in the first round.
Sun Yiping saw the substitution and said: "Coach Wang Fei still left Lu Yu on the court. He definitely hopes that the team can retain an offensive firepower point. The presence of Lu Yu and Da Zhi at the same time can also ensure the rhythm of the offense. Battle more
It’s about providing assurance on the defensive end.”
After Yao Ming came off the court, the United States rushed into the paint more frequently and caused two fouls by Battelle, quickly catching up with the score.
In the last attack, the United States called a timeout to arrange tactics for the last attack.
Baron Davis ran without the ball, caught the ball, drifted and hit the ball.
At halftime, the two sides were tied at 40:40.
The performance of the Chinese team surprised the Argentine team who was observing in the audience. They did not expect to be able to play a tough match with the United States.
Ginobili said calmly: "It seems that the Chinese team will be a difficult opponent in the second round."
Most of the results of the first round of the group stage have come out. For example, in Group C, Germany, China and the United States advance. In the next round, they will enter the group, and Argentina will also be in the group.
The half-time break ended and the second half of the game began. Lu Yu led the second team to play for a whole quarter, so he sat off the court to rest at the beginning of the third quarter.
Everyone came on the field with high morale. No one expected that this quarter would be like a nightmare for China.
When the U.S. team attacked the basket, O'Neal Jr. hooked the ball and he roared. He was so angry that he made many moves that were very impressive.
Andre Miller scored two more points, and the U.S. team made two shots at the beginning of the third quarter.
Yao Ming immediately responded by turning around and shooting the ball from the basket.
After Yao Ming received the ball, Ben Wallace immediately faced off against Yao Ming. He was now stuck to Yao Ming on defense like brown sugar because their team's other insider, college player Nick Collison, couldn't guard Yao Ming at all.
He got off the court with three fouls, but Yao Ming himself also had two fouls.
When Yao Ming saw Hua Laisi sticking close to him, he knew that now was the time to chase points and a strong attack was not a good option, but he still pretended to hit Hua Laishi with his back, and his teammates around Hua Laishi also did the same.
Although he was prepared to help defend, Yao Ming feinted and passed the ball to Yi Jianlian, who cut in from the high post. Yi Jianlian received the pass and dunked it hard.
This was Yi Jianlian's first score in the game. His bounce made Hualais slightly startled. He didn't expect that the Chinese team would have an inside man who could jump so well.
Lu Yu also stood up and applauded Yi Jianlian's dunk. It was a beautiful dunk. The most important thing is that the team needs this dunk to boost morale.
But obviously something as mysterious as morale is of no use to the Chinese team!
The American team blindsided the Chinese team with three consecutive three-pointers. The Chinese team's several passing errors also caused the score to increase to ten points in an instant.
Wang Fei immediately called a timeout.
He kept reprimanding Liu Wei for his mistakes: "Liu, you can't just try to break through the opponent's defense. What you have to do is to organize the team's offense. You should come up with tactics before the opponent's defensive pressure comes up, and
It’s not like you’re forced by your opponent to pass the ball!”
Seeing Liu Wei lower his head, he turned his attention to Lu Yu who was sitting on the bench. Lu Yu stood up on his own initiative: "Coach, I can play!"
The halftime break has already taken place, and with the few minutes of rest at the beginning of the third quarter, he has recovered a lot of his physical strength.
"Okay! Lu, you not only have to be aggressive, but you are also responsible for helping Liu Wei organize the offense. We must hold on to the score. Only in this way can we have a chance to use our No. 5 tactic in the fourth quarter!"
Lu Yu nodded.
The No. 5 tactic is the team’s trump card!
According to the team leader's intention, the team's strategy is to give up the game with the American team, but everyone believes that the team has the strength to compete with the United States, so they do not intend to give up.
Because they have tactic No. 5!
On the other side, the head coach of the US team is also arranging tactics: "We just want to press the opponent's offensive rhythm and disrupt the opponent on the defensive end. I am not worried about our offense. We can score, whether it is inside or outside, our scoring ability
They are all better than each other, the only thing I worry about is..."
He stopped here and looked at the Chinese team's bench.
"The only thing I'm worried about is their No. 10 player, the guy who is the core of the NBA Bulls' tactics. He has been playing simple offense now. I always feel that Wang Fei will not waste such an NBA-level player.
Defender..."
Ben Wallace also nodded. His Pistons team and the Bulls belong to the same Eastern Conference. He is very aware of the horror of Lu Yu as the core of tactics. The Pistons' back line is like riddled with holes for Lu Yu.
However, Lu Yu did not break through a few times throughout the game. Hua Laishi couldn't figure it out: "Why didn't he break through with the ball?"
Also puzzled was Reggie Miller. He was very aware of Lu Yu's strength. According to the words discussed among several of their old players, Lu Yu was probably the next Jordan.
The head coach of the U.S. team hesitated for a moment and said: "Maybe No. 10 is not accustomed to the rules of international men's basketball."
Reggie Miller nodded. Perhaps this is the only way to make sense. The International Men's Basketball Team does not defend for three seconds. The center can stand under the basket and not come out, so when the defender breaks through, the basket will appear more crowded.
The head coach of the American team thought that he was right. He clapped his hands and told all the players: "Okay, it's time to go on the field. We are going to open up the score in the third quarter and then end this game."
When the players of the American team walked onto the field, they found that the Chinese team's No. 10 was also on the field.
Reggie Miller suddenly remembered, no, if Lu Yu doesn't adapt to the rules of international men's basketball, how did the Chinese team win the previous few games?
It's just that the game has started and there is no time for him to think so much.
But after Lu Yu came on the court, he still had no breakthrough. He took advantage of Wang Zhizhi's cover and slipped to the bottom line. Suddenly he made a 90-degree turn and rushed to the top of the key. Andre Miller wanted to catch up, but was blocked by Yao Ming.
stuck.
Off the court, Battle asked worriedly: "Can Lu Yu do it?"
Wang Fei's eyes were deep: "It can definitely be done!"
Lu Yu received a pass from Liu Wei outside the three-point line and shot a three-pointer directly. The basketball made a perfect arc and fell into the basket.
"nice shot!"
Sun Yiping exclaimed excitedly. His commentary on the game just now was too depressing. Finally, when Lu Yu came on the court, he hit an exciting three-pointer as soon as he came on the court: "Lu Yu's shooting is still so accurate. This three-pointer
It gave the Chinese team hope to catch up with the score again."
The American head coach made a gesture and Andre Miller nodded. He knew that the head coach asked him to keep an eye on Lu Yu.
Don't let him catch the ball, don't let him take shots easily, and lower his shooting percentage.
It became difficult for Lu Yu to catch the ball.
The Chinese team's pursuit of points was also slowing down. Fortunately, Lu Yu, Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming were on the court at the same time. Although Lu Yu received the ball several times and missed the shot, the two big men Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi ensured a second attack under the basket.
In the end, Lu Yu simply stopped taking action and concentrated on passing the ball after receiving the ball.
His passing is not as hesitant as Liu Wei. Every pass can be handed over to the most appropriate player at the most appropriate time. Zhu Fangyu likes to partner with Lu Yu the most. As long as he can run out of space, Lu Yu can always pass the ball to the most appropriate player.
When the ball is passed to him, he only needs to be responsible for shooting the ball.
At the end of the third quarter, the Chinese team was only three points behind at 63:66.
The players off the court asked Xiang Wang Fei: "When will we start executing the No. 5 tactic?"
Wang Fei shook his head: "It's not time yet."
As soon as the fourth quarter started, the United States showed its fangs.
O'Neal kept moving to the high post, forcing Yao Ming to leave the paint. As a result, Liu Wei's defense was useless to Andre Miller. Andre Miller accelerated past Liu Wei and easily made a layup.
Score.
All the American fans excitedly sang their national anthem!
They felt that they must have won because the Chinese team could not guard against their attack!
Only Ginobili, who was sitting in the audience, frowned slightly, "The United States may lose..."
His teammate Scola was stunned, "The American team clearly has the advantage, so why did they lose?"
Ginobili shook his head: "I have watched the game video of No. 10 of the Chinese team. You don't know that this is not the style of play he is good at. The head coach of the Chinese team Wang Fei is not a fool. He will not waste Lu Yu's
Talent, so there is only one possibility - they have a secret weapon."
"The U.S. team is also hiding. They haven't attacked the defense of the Chinese team's point guard several times since the beginning. Now their Andre Miller has begun to break through continuously." Scola retorted.
Ginobili's eyes became profound: "When two teams have a trump card, the one exposed first will be the loser."
What he said is correct.
At this time, Wang Fei, who was standing off the court, requested a substitution. Liu Wei was replaced by Li Nan, and Wang Fei made a five sign.
The five players on the court are Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Zhu Fangyu, Li Nan, and Lu Yu.
It was Lu Yu who controlled the ball.
Lu Yu dribbled the ball, but Reggie Miller did not come up to defend, so Andre Miller continued to defend.
At this time, Yao Ming suddenly came up with a pick-and-roll, and Lu Yu accelerated his breakthrough.
Ben Wallace and Andre Miller's eyes collided instantly, and they immediately made a decision not to change!
Because he was close to the three-point line, they bet that Yao Ming's shooting percentage would not be high.
Andre Miller bypassed the defense, and Lu Yu passed the ball behind the back to Yao Ming. Wallace stretched out his hand to interfere with Yao Ming's shot. Even if the hit rate was not high, Yao Ming could not be missed.
Yao Ming flicked his hand and the basketball flew directly to the basket.
Hua Laishi was startled, and quickly looked back, only to see Lu Yu leaping high, catching the ball in the air and slamming it in with one hand!
The entire Chinese fans were excited. Such a dunk was actually done by a Chinese defender!
What about Andre Miller?
Only then did Wallace realize that Andre Miller was blocked behind him by Wang Zhizhi.
Double cover?
This is a typical double cover tactic, but this tactic doesn't look like a trump card.
Then he realized that he was wrong, and this was indeed a trump card.
