Chapter 459
Chapter 459
James does not need to face Wang Meng and Hao Peng, but at the same time, Durant, who is more capable of scoring, is entangled by Wang Meng, and Hao Peng will be restrained by Cousins on the defensive end, but on the offensive end, Cousins But Si was completely blown away by Hao Peng.
Although Cousins' stats have soared in the Kings and Harden, he is still far behind Hao Peng in terms of real strength.
As for the duel between Durant and Wang Meng, in fact, there should be no suspense. Although Wang Meng inherited Artest's growth template card, even the peak Artest cannot completely restrict Durant to death. More is to affect its scoring efficiency.
But that was the normal confrontation between the two.
In the current arena, the situation is a bit different.
The ball is now largely concentrated in the hands of James. The difference between Durant, Thompson, and George is not very big. They are all just spot-up shooters.
Such Durant naturally can't show much of his own strength, and Wang Meng only needs to interfere as much as possible if Durant can't catch the ball.
Old K's arrangement cannot actually be said to be wrong.
Wang Meng is a player selected to the best defensive team this season, and is currently known as the strongest defensive player on the front line, and his single-defense ability even surpasses Leonard.
Even if it is a top historical superstar like James Durant, the efficiency against it will be greatly reduced. It is absolutely stupid for a head coach to use the strongest spear and fight against the strongest shield.
It's a pity that Jeremy Lin is not a soft persimmon that anyone can handle at will. In other words, the only defensive shortcoming in the starting lineup of the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team is Yi Jianlian, and his shortcomings are only compared with Jeremy Lin's Wang Meng Hao Peng.
After playing under Wang Xiao for two years, Wang Xiao also provided him with training module bonuses. Now Yi Jianlian's various statistics are already at the NBA standard level, which is why he can still play in the NBA instead of returning to the NBA. The reason for the CBA.
Currently on the field, Yi Jianlian is marking Carmelo Anthony or Draymond Green most of the time.
Compared with other players, these two are not so difficult to defend.
Needless to say, Green's outside shooting is extremely unstable, and he has no advantage in height and weight inside. As a functional forward, Green's offensive ability is very average.
And if Anthony is a few years younger, he can easily beat Yi Jianlian, but now that Anthony has experienced several injuries, his explosive power is far less than before. The former offensive kaleidoscope now only has one long-range shot left. Yi Jianlian You just need to guard against his shots. If Anthony breaks through to the basket, Hao Peng will naturally clean him up.
……
The enemy is clear and the enemy is dark, tactical suppression, coupled with Cheng Jie's unexpected explosion, let the Huaxia men's basketball team still firmly grasp the lead at the end of halftime.
In the third quarter, when the substitute players of the two teams began to appear one after another, the Huaxia men's basketball team inevitably fell into a passive situation.
No way, although the starting lineup can compete with the US team, the Huaxia men's basketball team's bench lineup is still the CBA team. Even if Wang Xiao made a lot of targeted training and tactical arrangements, it still can't make up for the gap in hard power. Even if Jeremy Lin didn't end the whole game and kept controlling the rhythm, the point difference would inevitably be recovered.
Wang Xiao also thought about letting the players take turns to rest in two teams, but after careful consideration, he still rejected it.
Now the Huaxia men's basketball team can take the initiative in the head-to-head duel, relying on the excellent personal abilities of the five NBA players. No matter which one of these players is missing, there will be obvious weaknesses on the field. With the experience of old K, It is impossible to let go of such an opportunity, and the loss outweighs the gain.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long. A few minutes later, Hao Pengchengjie, Wang Meng and others returned, and the situation immediately stabilized.
Throughout the third quarter, Hao Peng and others rested off the court for nearly 4 minutes. Jeremy Lin did not leave the court for 1 minute. In this quarter, the two teams scored 31:24. The US team successfully recovered by relying on the depth of the substitute lineup. 7 points, the difference is only 1 point.
During the break after the third quarter, Wang Xiao gathered Jeremy Lin and others together.
"Guys, you did a good job. Thanks to your hard work, we are still in the lead. Although it is only 1 point, a lead is a lead." Wang Xiao said, looking at Jeremy Lin, Hao Peng and others at the same time.
"In the next fourth quarter, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to rest. In order to win, I can only work hard for you."
Wang Xiao's starters played for a long time, especially Jeremy Lin, who was on the court the whole time. If he continued to be on the court non-stop in the fourth quarter, he would have played the entire game.
Fortunately, the Olympic games last 10 minutes in a single quarter, and the four quarters add up to only 40 minutes, which is much easier than the NBA's 12 minutes in a single quarter and 48 minutes.
When Jeremy Lin played in the NBA playoffs, he often played more than 45 minutes in a single game. The Nets relied on him even more than the Huaxia men's basketball team, because the Nets did not have a super center like Hao Peng, nor did they rely on him. Without an outside marksman like Cheng Jie, the offense depends on Jeremy Lin connecting the whole team.
"Whether we can win the game depends on the next quarter!"
……
In the fourth quarter of the game, the moment of the real bayonet.
As soon as the game restarted, Jeremy Lin lobbed the ball from the outside to Hao Peng inside.
After receiving the ball, Hao Peng turned his back to Dunn.
Old K also knew that at the critical moment, the inside offense was more stable, and the Huaxia men's basketball team would definitely let Hao Peng attack the inside, so Dunn was replaced at the beginning of the fourth quarter to defend Hao Peng.
After dribbling with his back and taking two steps towards the basket, Hao Peng turned around and feinted, and then made a hook shot.
Dun En was shaken for a while, and his movements were half a beat slow, but he still reacted in time and reached out and hit Hao Peng on the arm.
"Squeak——!" The whistle sounded, Dunn made a defensive foul, and Hao Peng made two free throws.
At 8:85, the point difference became 3 points.
On the US team, James faced Jeremy Lin at the top arc, and suddenly made a three-pointer without warning.
88:88 draw.
Hao Peng came again, leaning on Dunn's back and forced his way into the basket, then stepped down to the basket and jumped directly to dunk the basketball into the basket with both hands.
90: 88!
In the next few minutes, both teams seemed to be suddenly in a scoring drought. The US team's offense was either directly resolved from the outside, or was interfered and missed by Hao Peng inside.
The Huaxia men's basketball team also lost their focus under the sudden increase in the defensive intensity of the American team, especially Hao Peng, Dunn's desperate defense, coupled with the help of other players, it was very difficult for Hao Peng Catch the ball and attack.
Not to mention the players on the field, even the head coaches Wang Xiao and Old K on the sidelines were sweating on their foreheads.
The game has evolved into a duel of willpower. Under the almost suffocating defensive pressure, which side can't hold on first, it will be the first to collapse.
