Chapter 261 Cunning defense, decisive shot

Anthony was confused and didn't know what was going on. He looked up and saw that the yellow-skinned young man who was facing him had a certain distance from him and was already standing under the basket.He instantly understood what was going on, smashed the basketball to the floor with both hands, and then caught it with both hands.If his behavior of venting his emotions happened to a role player, he would be punished.But he is a superstar, so the referee naturally wouldn't do that.

It turned out that Ying Xiong had predicted that Anthony was going to exert force just now. At the moment when the opponent exerted force, he suddenly released his forward force and retreated slightly, so that the opponent could not use the strength and hold the center of gravity. caused walking.But it is also very dangerous to do so, and the judgment of timing is very demanding. If it is earlier or later, the opponent will have the opportunity to kill to a deeper position and get a better opportunity to attack.

Ying Xiong's "sudden unloading" move was learned from Su Wei in the national team this summer.He was very curious that Su Wei, as a center, would use such a clever defensive method on the defensive end.

Ying Xiong is a player who is good at learning. He knows very well that it is not the wisest way to face a strong opponent on the defensive end, and sometimes head-to-head with the opponent.Excellent defenders are smart and know all kinds of tricks and tricks, instead of directly confronting the opponent forever.

Anthony gave Ying Xiong a deep look, and Ying Xiong knew what his eyes meant—provocation?No, there is more to anger.He knows that his current status in the arena is not enough for a superstar of Anthony's level to challenge him.

For Anthony, Ying Xiong's defense is like playing a "shady trick", which is not an aboveboard move.But for Xiong, as long as it is not a foul, as long as it does not intentionally hurt others, it is okay to defend within the allowed range of the rules.

Jennings dribbles over and organizes at the top of the arc.Anthony seemed to be still angry. Ying Xiong didn't have the ball in his hand, so he started to make physical contact without the ball.

Ying Xiong smiled wryly, thinking that even if you wrestle with me without the ball, it’s useless, because I don’t have the ball on the offensive end...

Sure enough, Ying Xiong ignored the physical contact that Anthony could make when defending without the ball, and slowly moved to the right corner to open up space.

In this way, Anthony didn't know where to vent the depression in his heart.Obviously, Ying Xiong is standing in the bottom corner, which seems to be the role of a spot-up shooter in the tactics. Without the ball in his hand, the match between the two lacks some meaning after all.

Here Jennings throws the basket to score!
Billups dribbled over and handed it to Anthony, who was behind him.He has been playing basketball for many years and has become a mature adult. Naturally, he knew that Anthony was "schemed" by the opponent's Asian kid just now and got a turnover, and he would feel upset.

Ying Xiong still didn't choose to go around and keep his position, preferring to let the opponent successfully catch the ball.In his defensive dictionary, unless he is defending those inside big men who are obviously one size bigger than himself, he will choose to go around the front.For a player like Anthony who is similar in size to him, it doesn't make much sense whether he goes around or not.It is too risky to go around the front, but it provides an opportunity for the opponent.

Anthony successfully received a pass from Billups. After receiving the ball, instead of arching his back like in the previous round, he immediately turned to face the frame, holding the ball to face the hero.

The two looked at each other, and Ying Xiong saw in Anthony's eyes a strong desire to attack.The fans at the scene were happy to see the heads-up scene. Of course, they hoped that the young player of the home team, Ying Xiong, could let the superstar down once again.

Anthony holds the ball, bows, feints, and makes tentative steps, luring Ying Xiong.

Ying Xiong didn't choose to jump up, nor did he retreat, he kept his distance and defensive posture, and looked at the opponent blankly.

Anthony secretly sighed in his heart that this Asian kid has good concentration and has the potential to become an excellent defensive player.Immediately, he started, and directly walked his right hand to force a breakthrough.His starting speed is very fast, like a defender, not at all like a powerful forward who is more than 2 meters tall and weighs more than 105kg.

Ying Xiong's reaction speed and lateral movement speed have always been his advantages over other strikers. I saw that he did not completely block Anthony's breakthrough route, but followed the opponent, using his wingspan advantage to cover the opponent.

Anthony's breakthroughs come and go like the wind. Not only is he fast, but also with his strong body, even if he doesn't get rid of his opponent, he can still get a chance to make a move by virtue of the confrontational advantage.

Anthony was also surprised by Ying Xiongna's quick movement. In his impression, few Asian strikers have such excellent movement.However, relying on his strong body, he squeezed to the basket, and then squeezed Ying Xiong away to make a shot...

When the opponent made a shot, Ying Xiong jumped straight up and missed the ball, but still interfered with the opponent's shot.

Anthony missed the shot, and Ying Xiong and him both jumped up at the same time to compete for the rebound together.

Yingxiong's bullet speed and agility helped him grab the rebound first when he and Anthony took off at the same time.After he came down, he wanted to pass to the players around him, but was fouled by Anthony who was counter-robbed!

Anthony was very upset, but he was still surprised by Yingxiong's excellent bullet speed and explosive power. He thought that he had underestimated the opponent. Asian players who can enter the NBA should also be the top players in Asia.

The fans were not afraid of big things, and immediately booed, and some even provoked Anthony, teasing him that he couldn't even handle a second grader.

Anthony wanted to get back on the defensive end, but Yingxiong didn't have any chances to make a move at all, so it seemed pointless for him to try hard to defend, so he gradually relaxed his marking of Yingxiong.

It's true that Ying Xiong played without the ball, but he didn't have the power to control the ball, which doesn't mean he didn't have the right to shoot.Here, Delfino was pinched by the opponent when he broke through. After he protected the ball, he saw that Yingxiong in the right corner was slack in defense, and immediately passed the ball to the past.

After Ying Xiong received the ball, Anthony's reaction was half a beat slow. By the time he reacted and ran to block the shot, it was too late.

Ying Xiong shot decisively without any hesitation. If he didn't make a shot in the open space, it would be meaningless to play without the ball. The opponent would wantonly let himself go and pinch his teammates.

"Shua—" Ying Xiong hit a 3-pointer!

Anthony's expression was a little awkward. Ying Xiong was his defender. It was true that he lost his mind while defending and missed his defender.For this 3-pointer, he has to bear most of the responsibility.

Anthony has the common shortcomings of many big-name offensive superstars, that is, not working hard enough on the defensive end, not to mention not dedicating enough, and easily distracted.With his physical fitness, it is impossible to make such a negligible contribution on the defensive end.

Attack depends on talent, defense depends on attitude.No matter how good the physical talent is, if there is no attitude, the defensive end is still like paper.
