Chapter 733
The group match between the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team and the Polish Men's Basketball Team is the most anxious match in Group A.Even though the group stage is only halfway through now, everyone doesn't think the other two teams can play an inseparable game with these two teams.After all, the strength of Côte d'Ivoire and Venezuela is still a bit worse than these two teams, at least from the previous few games.
Poland is not only outstanding in strength, the team's resilience is also really strong!They fell behind by 14 points at most, but they did not get discouraged. Instead, they caught up and evened the score.In the following period of time, they opened the score twice. Although they did not maintain it for a long time, they did not allow the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team to open again to double digits.They have always maintained a level with their opponents.However, when Zhou Qi and Guo Ailun all played, the situation facing the Polish team became even more severe!
Soon, the final battle between the two sides began.
This round is the possession of the Chinese team.After Yi Jianlian caught the ball thrown by the referee from outside the baseline, he handed it to Guo Ailun who was back on the field.Advance quickly to the top of the arc.This time, the eldest nephew is ready to come by himself.
In fact, in this game, Guo Ailun was really aggrieved.He has a whole body of ability, but he can't display it under the constraints of the number of fouls.In fact, Guo Ailun's inability to control his own fouls has always been a headache.In many games, his playing time will be limited by the number of fouls he has committed.In this way, not only his own performance will be affected, but it is very likely that the entire team's game situation will also be affected.
However, in this game, Guo Ailun's forced "rest" did not have much impact on the Tianchao Men's Basketball Team.Zhao Jiwei accomplished the tasks assigned to him by Li Nan very well, and organized the team's offense relatively smoothly.As for the offensive end, it has no effect.After the ball was more concentrated in An Luo's hands, the offensive firepower of the Tianchao men's basketball team became more intense.In particular, An Luo's efforts outside the three-point line forced the Polish team to stretch the defense to the three-point line.In this way, the restrictions on An Luo are better, but the space that is opened up provides great help for other players to attack inside.
With Zhou Qi's cover, Guo Ailun directly accelerated and rushed into the inside line.Facing the Polish big man, he bypassed the opponent with a European step, then pulled the ball with his left hand in the air, and picked the ball onto the backboard.
The basketball hit the backboard and immediately bounced back. After touching the front of the rim, it fell into the net bag.
Guo Ailun's breakthrough is more impactful than most domestic players.He has always been able to tear down the opponent's defense with relative ease and create scoring opportunities.Of course, Guo Ailun's success rate is also more guaranteed.Just like this ball, the eldest nephew's layup was perfect and easy.
Looking back, Poland responded with a goal almost in the same way.Slaughter, who had been silent for the entire game, finally stood up and told everyone with an emergency stop jumper after a breakthrough that he was the "leading scorer" of the Polish team.Since the start of the game, An Luo has done a very good job of restricting Slaughter.He knows the opponent's technical characteristics, and the opponent's outside shooting ability is not outstanding.Therefore, An Luo has always maintained a sufficient defensive distance from Slaughter, blocking the route that Slaughter always breaks through.
After all, Slaughter is still the core of the Polish team's backcourt. At this critical moment, he calmed himself down and played a huge role.He didn't go to fight An Luo anymore, and after receiving the ball, he immediately stretched out his hand to call for a cover.Afterwards, Slaughter used the cover to accelerate directly, stepping over his teammate's body.Although Yi Jianlian switched defenses in the first place, as a defender, Slaughter's speed and physical flexibility are still better than big players, even if it is Yi Jianlian.A change of direction to the right side, speeding away from the defense, and then straight up, throwing the ball to the basket.
"Shh!"
A very beautiful shot, a very perfect offense.As a core player, Slaughter finally stood up at the most critical moment.
However, before he could be happy, the Tianchao men's basketball team had already launched a new attack.It was still Guo Ailun who advanced with the ball, and Zhou Qi pulled to the top of the arc to set up a screen for him.This time Guo Ailun didn't play by himself, and the opponent's defense was changed in a timely manner.He passed the basketball to Zhou Qi who was going down, but Zhou Qi also fell into defensive trouble.He was stuck in the lower plate by Podica who had switched defenses. Whether it was shooting or breaking through, it was difficult for him to exert force.
Just as Zhou Qi was holding the ball and looking around blankly, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.When Zhou Qi and Guo Ailun were performing pick-and-rolls, An Luo started his own running.He led Slaughter to the bottom corner along the three-point line, changed direction suddenly to the left, and slipped the bottom line to the other bottom corner.However, he used Yi Jianlian's "cover" to get rid of Slaughter's defense at the basket, and ran back to the 45-degree position on the right three-point line.At this time, the basketball passed by Zhou Qi just flew over.After An Luo received the basketball, he slapped the ball on the ground, stepped back beyond the three-point line, and then stood up to complete the shot.
With An Luo's three-pointer, the Tianchao men's basketball team once again took the lead.Moreover, they maintained this slight one-point advantage until the last moment.However, the Polish team has the opportunity to take the game directly.
With 12 seconds left in the game, although the Chinese team led by 1 point, the ball was in the hands of the Polish team. They only needed to complete a layup to kill the game. 12 seconds is enough for them to do this.
"Defense!"
"Defense!"
"Defense!"
……
Needless to say, Li Nan's exhortations during the timeout, all arrangements are focused on defense!At this time, the earth-shattering shouts from above Wukesong were about to topple the roof!Everyone knows that this defensive round is crucial.
An Luo clung to Slaughter.This guy is a point that must be kept an eye on in the Polish team. Even though he didn't have much performance throughout the game, his ability is not bad.After all, he is the core of the Polish team's backcourt. If it weren't for An Luo's meticulous "care" from beginning to end, Slaughter would have already become a superstar on the court just like he did in the previous game against Venezuela!
