Basketball glory

Chapter 122: He's a Chinese!

An Ran rubbed his hands, stood on the court, and faced Irving directly.

From the perspective of others, the two men's styles of play are relatively similar. They are both offensive point guards and have solid basic skills. The only difference is that Irving is already the league's number one pick, while Anron is still just one.

Players who almost went undrafted.

Gong Luming replaced Zhou Qi in order to practice his offensive tactics.

A tall man stands on the right baseline, a tall man stands on the free throw line, and a shooter stands on the 45-degree three-point line on the left. Then the other two people get open by picking and rolling the shooters on the baseline and outside the three-point line.

In Gong Luming's tactics, there are two key points. One is that the tall man at the free throw line must have strong organizational skills and passing vision. The other key point is that the pick-and-roll and running personnel must play well.

Chance.

Just like the Lakers' triangle tactic to attract double teams, this diagonal positioning tactic also relies heavily on the execution of the players.

"Hello, I've heard about you."

Owen's sudden opening made An Ran stunned for a moment. Owen smiled confidently, but his defensive actions did not change at all.

"Do you speak English?" Seeing that An Ran didn't reply, Owen continued to talk to himself.

It felt a bit rude not to speak any more. An Ran raised her head and found that Zhou Qi had no intention of passing the ball here, so she responded in English: "I can speak English, but how do you know me?"

"It's not just me, coach K also knows you." Irving showed his big white teeth and said with a chuckle.

safely:"???"

Before he could reply, An Ran saw the basketball flying over.

In fact, the quality of Zhou Qi's pass was not good, relatively speaking, it was a little high. An Ran received the ball and took a small jump step, then tilted the ball behind his back and made a test step.

Seeing An Ran get the ball, Owen stopped talking and stared at An Ran holding the ball.

According to the rotation, Irving should also take a rest at this time, but the old coach K did not arrange it. For the players of the US team, a game of this level is not even as intense as the warm-up, and they don't feel very tired, so Irving simply

He continued to stay on the field.

"Don't stop the ball, pass it if it doesn't work!" Gong Luming shouted loudly, seeming to be very angry at An Ran's irrational choice of wanting to play Irving alone.

Gong Luming thought to himself, only now

The first ball I put you on was just for singles. Is that okay?

You know, after Yao Ming retired, the Chinese team did not have a stable singles point with the ball. What they did most was to score suddenly after catching the ball. An Ran actually wanted to singles Irving after he took up a defensive position. Isn't this stupid?

?

According to the Cavaliers' technical statistics, Irving's single defense efficiency ranks last among defenders, but this does not mean that Irving's defensive skills are poor at all.

The reason for Irving's poor defense is actually largely due to his defensive attitude. He always doesn't like to help defend. When defending alone, he doesn't want to invest too much energy and wants to play key goals in the fourth quarter.

But what are we facing now? It’s the Chinese team.

To put it bluntly, even if the top players from all positions in all the teams in the entire Olympic Games form a team, the US team has a great chance of winning.

This luxurious lineup of more than a dozen All-Stars is no joke. Therefore, Irving's reactions, steals, and defense won't necessarily be any worse if he doesn't need to stay focused.

That's why Gong Luming was so anxious and didn't want to fall into this kind of singles cycle in the first quarter.

"How dare you..." Owen was about to say something when he felt the wind caused by Enron starting up.

Even Irving didn't expect that Enron's first step would be of this caliber.

Of course, this kind of surprise can only happen once. Enron does not have the strength of Iverson now, and it is not at the level where even if everyone knows that you are going to break through, you just can't prevent it.

But it's enough to get past Irving once, because this opportunity represents two points.

If it were in the past, Irving would definitely not chase after being passed by in one step, because he knew that if he didn't chase, someone would definitely cover up the defense, and he only needed to switch defenses.

But it was different now. He was actually passed by a little-known player like An Ran. Irving felt that this was really a shame and humiliation, so he pursued him without hesitation.

Cousins, who was guarding Zhou Qi, saw this and did not shrink his defense. In his opinion, An Ran was not a person worthy of double-teaming.

It is even said that among the entire Chinese team, Yi Jianlian is the only one worthy of being double-teamed.

When playing in the past, Anron could feel the distance of the defender behind or beside him, and then judge whether they would interfere with his layup or attack.

But now, I meet more and more players

Strong, An Ran feels that he is increasingly unable to judge based on experience.

Because they are so perverted!

Just now, Owen caught up with him in an instant. Looking at his posture, it seemed that he was going to give himself a big hat, and An Ran would never dare to do so again.

Does passing someone mean you score? That doesn’t exist!

Feeling the pressure from his body, An Ran finally realized the difference between the NBA and CBA.

No amount of hearsay can compare to an intuitive experience.

"What should we do? Call a foul?" An Ran thought quickly about countermeasures.

It is completely impossible to score the ball at this time. Without help in defense, it proves that no matter which teammate it is, there must be a defender. So An Ran can see clearly that this ball must be played by himself.

.

But how to score this goal?

Irving's body is almost at the same level as his own. What advantage does he have at this time? It can only be four to five centimeters taller than Irving.

In an instant, An Ran gave up the intention of drawing a foul. Let's not talk about whether the foul can be successfully drawn. In this position, except for the obvious thugs, would the referee foul a player whose name he has never heard of?

When attacking at the basket, there are actually many options to choose from, such as fantasy steps, European steps, etc., but at this critical moment, knowing and using these moves are completely different concepts.

The ball hit the floor hard, and An Ran jumped up to try for a reverse basket.

Irving jumped faster, and his astonishing spring speed coupled with his fairly good wingspan directly blocked all of Enron's shooting space.

"It's about to be blocked!" The people on the field saw this scene most intuitively. Based on their experience, they really couldn't figure out how An Ran put the ball into the basket.

"etc!!"

Just when everyone thought they would be blocked, An Ran didn't make a move. Just when he was about to land, he pushed the basketball out with a small hook.

Coach K's eyes lit up when he saw this scene: "Hook shot after staying in the air."

He muttered quietly, his words full of surprise, as if he was saying that a Chinese player could actually do this.

If these actions were performed by any NBA star, Coach K would not be surprised. After all, even some role players in the NBA are capable of reaching the top five, but he is Chinese!
