NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 975 Is Hammer's defense really so strong?

James began to attack the paint area from the left wing. The long flank gave him the distance to accelerate, and the defensive formation of the Chinese team gave him room to accelerate.

As he rushed to the paint, Prince, who was in the left corner, also began to rush to the paint.

This is the so-called run-and-bomb tactic suggested by Frank. Everyone can't stop in one position and run non-stop to tear through the weak perimeter defense of the Chinese team.

Then there are two options, the first is to shoot from the outside, the second is to keep hitting the penalty area, hitting the inside of the Chinese team, and the incomparably powerful outside impact of the US team, breaking down the inside defense of the Chinese team.

Every U.S. player has the ability to make these two choices.

The first choice is Dayao's best choice at the basket, so that the Chinese team's ability to control rebounds will be weakened, which will help the US team hit offensive rebounds.

The second choice is Li Ba's best choice at the basket, which will kill him.

Now Li Ba is defending Howard alone at the basket, James is attacking, and Prince is the second, like a wave, hitting the Chinese team's penalty area wave after wave.

The Chinese team's defensive tactics adopted the one mentioned by Li Ba, with Dayao in the high position, creating opportunities for Li Ba to help defend the top of the arc.

Li Ba had just reached the free throw line and took the next step, but when he saw James, he was staring at Paul. He "saw" someone on the left wing approaching the basket at high speed, and immediately retreated to defend the basket.

He took a look, it was James, followed by Prince.

Relying on stronger strength and physique, James led the UAE by half a head. At this time, Paul passed the ball, he caught the ball, and stepped on the sideline of the penalty area.

As soon as Li Ba withdrew to the basket, Howard started to move, trying to trap him and cover James' attack, but as soon as he turned and moved sideways faster, Howard was stuck under the basket instead, and James rushed to the front.

James saw Li Ba occupying a defensive position under the basket, stepped out, changed direction upwards, pulled towards the front of the basket, and then jumped up.

But the biggest goal of his change of direction jump is not to score, but to attract Li Ba to take off, and then pass the ball to Prince, who will hit Li Ba and cause Li Ba to foul.

Ah Lian, who was half a step behind James, didn't stop the pass. He didn't expect James to pass the ball.

After passing the ball, James landed, turned around, and put A Lianka behind him, ready to grab a rebound.

Prince stepped into the penalty area one step behind James, and he left Sun Le behind him.

At this time, he saw James jumping up. According to the tactical requirements, he immediately stretched out his hands, ready to catch the ball, and then jumped up and shot.

Li Ba followed James to take off, and seeing the latter pass the ball backward, he didn't have any unexpected thoughts.

Prince rushed in, and there must be a purpose. Whether it was a second attack or he was the real attacker, Li Ba was mentally prepared.

The moment he landed, he took off for the second time, moved his right arm, and pressed the side of his right palm.

The arms are long enough and the distance is just right.

Prince took the ball and took off, but found that Li Ba did not move towards him, but took off on the spot, which made him unable to do any damage.

In the next moment, he suddenly discovered that his ball was held down by a force.

"Snapped!"

Li Ba pushed Prince, who was smashing the basket with both arms, into the air with one palm, and then pushed him downwards, pushing him directly to the floor.

With a bang, Prince dribbled the ball and fell to the floor, and the ball rolled out of the baseline.

"Oh!"

Wugesong let out an exclamation, and then erupted into huge cheers instantly, countless palms were shaking, and countless red flags were waving.

James was extremely surprised, this tactic didn't work?
Even, the goal of scoring was not achieved, but Prince was sealed on the floor?
Is the Hammer's defense really so strong?

On the sidelines, in front of the American bench, Frank shook his head helplessly.

He relied on Li Ba to win three championships and created a dynasty. It can be said that he is the person who knows Li Ba best, better than the coaches of the Chinese team, but now he is still very troubled by dealing with Li Ba himself.

Calm down, this is his evaluation of Li Ba's performance just now.

He felt that just now Li Ba was like a cold defensive machine, when he handled the US team's offense, he made no mistakes.

"This defense is really beautiful! James can't escape the block of the hammer even if he takes a shot." Yu Jia roared excitedly.

The Chinese team attacked.

"Pay attention, they may foul us today, we must be decisive when we start, don't give them a chance to play two plus one."

Sun Le served the ball, and Li Ba personally controlled the ball, pushed forward against James, and shouted to his teammates.

In the frontcourt, Dayao is in a high position. In order to save his energy, it is most appropriate for him to play a high position. This is also his main tactical position in the Lakers, and he is most familiar with it.

In the backcourt, Li Ba dribbled the ball down, and Paul, who was waiting for an opportunity, rushed up suddenly and made a steal.

But at this moment, Li Ba suddenly moved half a step sideways very quickly. With a bang, Paul bumped his head on Li Ba's back. He didn't hit Li Ba. After rebounding, he fell on his back on the floor. .

James in the front twitched his face. He was sure that Li Ba didn't pay attention to the back just now, but his movement was so timely.

Ignoring what happened later, Li Ba continued to advance with the ball.

Paul got up amid the laughter of the audience, feeling wronged by the cheap boss again.

Five seconds later, Li Ba steadily advanced to the frontcourt, near the top of the arc, and after making a tactical gesture, he suddenly moved his right hand, pulled the ball up from the floor, and then grabbed the ball with one hand and threw it at Dayao.

This is the advantage of big hands. The passing action was very sudden. James in front didn't react at all, and the ball passed over his head.

After seeing the tactical gesture, Dayao knew that Li Ba would pass the ball to him, so he took the ball steadily and raised his hands high.

Howard stood behind Dayao, preventing him from turning around smoothly.

At this time, Li Ba reached the top of the arc, and when he was close to Dayao, he suddenly accelerated, rushed past James, and rushed into the penalty area from Dayao.

His move is to attract Howard and let the US team switch defenses, so that Dayao can get a chance to play James in a misplaced position.

But the U.S. team had already fixed James' position and wanted to follow Li Ba, so Howard hesitated at this moment and did not switch defenses in time.

And after James was attacked, he turned around Dayao, which was more than one step late. His current turn and first step were still inferior to Li Ba, and Dayao's pick-and-roll failed to keep up.

As soon as Li Ba rushed past Howard's position, Dayao's ball came in.

It was a very stealthy backward ground pass, chasing after Li Ba's butt, and Howard behind didn't react at all, or even noticed it.

Li Ba didn't stop for a moment, didn't look at it, grabbed the ball with his right hand backwards, grabbed the ball from below, jumped forward in an instant, then jumped up, raised his arm, and smashed the ball into it with a bang up the basket.

0:2, the Chinese team leads.
