90 - Fall into passive
Ying Xiong didn't pay attention to these comments in newspapers or on the Internet.He doesn't want to affect his mood because of other people's opinions and remarks.That night, he received messages from Sun Jing and Li Jianwu on QQ.It turned out that both Sun Jing and Li Jianwu watched the entire game on TV due to the CCTV5 live broadcast of the game.They were all very happy with Ying Xiong's outstanding performance.

Ying Xiong also received a call from coach Shao Ziqiang. On the phone, Shao Ziqiang said that he watched the whole game on TV and was very happy to see Ying Xiong's outstanding performance in this game. He hoped that Ying Xiong could maintain this good state. Keep winning for the team.He also emphasized that it is necessary to judge the situation during the game, especially when the score is behind, and one must not lose one's composure.In the game, as a point guard, teammates should try to get the ball into the hands of teammates when they feel hot. If teammates are not in good condition, don't just pass the ball blindly, but also stand up and score.Shao Ziqiang finally emphasized that to maintain the aggressiveness of offense and defense, point guards also need to attack, and they must believe in their own strength!

After finishing the phone call with Shao Ziqiang, Ying Xiong thought a lot.He is very grateful to coach Shao Ziqiang for his care and love for him. Even if he is not under him, he always pays attention to himself and often reminds him.Coach Shao Ziqiang is quite right. As the point guard of the team, he needs to make a judgment on whether to attack or pass the ball to his teammates based on the situation on the court.Has excellent vision and passing skills, can judge the situation, and has a cool head, which is why people often say that a good point guard is rare.

Ying Xiong believes that he can play the role of the main point guard of the Guangsha team, because he has always had this ability, and he is still improving!

After defeating the strong Shandong team by a big score at home in the last game, the Guangsha team received a lot of praise.The team coach Wang Fei is also known by the outside world as "daring to use new players boldly!" For a former NBL team that was promoted to the CBA last season, the progress of the Guangsha team is the envy of other NBL teams.

Two days later, the Guangsha team will continue to play at home against the visiting Jiangsu team.The Jiangsu team has been very strong in recent years, and the team has excellent domestic players.The internal and external domestic players headed by Tang Zhengdong and Hu Xuefeng are the guarantee of the Jiangsu team's strength.Regarding the away match against Guangsha team in this campaign, judging from pre-match interviews, the Jiangsu team, which dominated the standings last season, did not think that Guangsha team could be called a strong opponent.

At home against Jiangsu, a strong team with two wins and two wins, the Guangsha team's home attendance rate is very impressive.The fans were moved by the Guangsha team's outstanding performance in the last game, and it also attracted more fans to watch the game.

In this game, the Guangsha team at home is wearing a white jersey, while the Jiangsu team playing away is wearing a blue jersey.

The starting lineup of the Guangsha team is the same as the previous game, namely: Zhang Nan, Thompson, Yu Junkai, Yao Peng, Ying Xiong; the starting lineup of the Jiangsu team is: Zhang Cheng, Tang Zhengdong, Han Shuo, Fang Hui, Ryan Kelly.

The Jiangsu team sent a lineup of "one big and four small", but these "four small" are actually not small. Except for Han Shuo, who is 196cm, the other three are all 198cm.The Jiangsu team's lineup can give full play to the advantages of space on the offensive end, allowing Tang Zhengdong to have enough space to play one on the inside and create opportunities for the outside.On the defensive end, the lineup of four swingmen around 4cm can maintain good movement and make up for Tang Zhengdong's lack of movement speed.

The game kicked off amid the cheers of the home crowd in Guangsha, with Tang Zhengdong and Thompson jumping the ball near the middle circle.With the sound of the referee's whistle, Guangsha's home game against the strong enemy Jiangsu team officially began.

Thompson jumped to the ball, and the Guangsha team got the first wave of offensive possession.Ying Xiong came over with a dribble, and Han Shuo defended.

Ying Xiong gave the ball to Yu Junkai who came out of the pocket, and the latter held the ball and Thompson picked and rolled.The Jiangsu team was afraid of Yu Junkai's outside shots, so they didn't dare to let him shoot, so they used flanking methods.

Yu Junkai gave the ball to Zhang Nan, Zhang Nan then gave Yao Peng, Yao Peng missed the shot.

Han Shuo dribbled the ball and gave it to foreign aid Ryan Kelly at the top of the arc.Ryan Kelly dribbled the ball under his crotch, and Ying Xiong came up to defend.Ryan Kelly made a few changes of direction, did not shake Ying Xiong completely, and returned the ball to Han Shuo.Han Shuo lobs to Tang Zhengdong inside.Tang Zhengdong hit Thompson with his back, and took advantage of his height and weight to squeeze Thompson to the bottom of the basket, causing the latter to foul.

Han Shuo sent the ball out of bounds, still grabbing the medicine according to the prescription, lobbing it to Tang Zhengdong in the low post, and then the other 4 players opened up, allowing Tang Zhengdong to play Thompson one-on-one.

Thompson was too heavy to defend Tang Zhengdong, and he couldn't stand up to the opponent.At this time, Yao Peng came to help defend, Tang Zhengdong immediately gave the ball to Zhang Nan who was defending Zhang Cheng, and the latter hit an open 3-pointer!
3:0, the Jiangsu team took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

Ying Xiong dribbled the ball over and gave it to Yu Junkai. He also took the medicine according to the prescription, and beat Tang Zhengdong's slow moving speed.However, Yu Junkai was double-teamed and played the ball too slowly, so he didn't have a good chance. Instead, he didn't have enough time to attack.In the end, Ying Xiongqiang made a shot, but the ball missed.

The rebound was accepted by Tang Zhengdong and handed over to Han Shuo to advance.When Han Shuo came over, he still played against Tang Zhengdong, so the Guangsha team could only double-team.Fortunately, Zhang Cheng from the outside line missed a hit this time.

The rebound was grabbed by Ying Xiong, advanced to the frontcourt, distributed to Yu Junkai, and played Tang Zhengdong as a cover.This time Yu Junkai passed the ball, but Zhang Nan missed the outside line.

Han Shuo took the rebound, dribbled it to the court, and followed Tang Zhengdong again.The Guangsha team continued to double-team, and Tang Zhengdong quickly passed the ball to Ryan Kelly in the bottom corner, who made a 3-pointer!
6:0!Guangsha coach Wang Fei decisively requested a timeout!The game lasted less than 3 minutes, and the Guangsha team didn't score a single point, but Tang Zhengdong himself was beaten by himself, and he was a little at a loss.

The fans of the home team were very worried. They didn't know what to do about the team's current predicament. The scene was a little quiet.Although the Jiangsu team's opening style of play is not smooth and not good-looking, it is indeed very practical.Especially in the face of a team that doesn't have a tall center inside, one hit is accurate.And the Jiangsu team's style of play is very similar to the XJ team this season.The XJ team with Battelle also often plays this tactic.Battelle's singles ability and ball distribution ability are even higher than Tang Zhengdong, and he is more difficult to defend.

Back from the timeout, neither side made substitutions, and the game continued.Ying Xiong came over with a dribble and picked and rolled Thompson in the high post.This time, the opponent did not double-team Ying Xiong, but Han Shuo chose to squeeze through the screen. Tang Zhengdong did not come out, but shrank under the basket to protect the frame.

For the opponent's strategy, Ying Xiong took advantage of the delay of the pick-and-roll to cut to the other side.Soon there will be an opponent's supplementary defense in the middle.Ying Xiong quickly split the ball to the open teammate in the corner, but Yu Junkai continued to miss the open space...

Ryan Kelly received the rebound and advanced quickly.Ying Xiong quickly defended and blocked the opponent's fast break.

Ryan Kelly gave it to Han Shuo, and Han Shuo tried to hang it to Tang Zhengdong, but Thompson saw it through and went around to steal it!Thompson gave the point to Zhang Nan who was going down quickly, and the latter scored the team's first 2 points of the game with a fast break layup!
6:2!The Guangsha team finally scored, and the fans in the stands let out a sigh of relief.

Han Shuo came over with a dribble, this time he didn't hang to Tang Zhengdong, but passed the ball to Ryan Kelly.Ryan Kelly played Ying Xiong in singles, and saw him take a false step with the ball. Seeing that Ying Xiong didn't take a fake move, he frequently dribbled the ball under his crotch to tease Ying Xiong's defensive nerves.

Ying Xiong didn't strike easily, nor did he give the opponent a distance where he could easily make a move. He focused on the opponent's movements with all his attention.Ryan Kelly made a quick change of direction and broke through to the right. The speed was very fast, but he still didn't shake Yingxiong. "Wow——" the audience yelled out loudly, which shows how fast Ryan Kelly's sudden change of direction was just now.

Ryan Kelly didn't shake Ying Xiong, took a step back, and shot a jumper - the ball missed, the rebound was protected by Yao Peng, and Ying Xiong was handed over to advance.

Ying Xiong held the ball across half court, handed it to Yao Peng, and then quickly cut to the basket.Yao Peng gave the ball to Ying Xiong who made an air cut. Ying Xiong leaped high, evaded Tang Zhengdong's block with a slam, and made a hit!

"Wow -" the scene burst into exclamation!Ying Xiong's one defense and one offense just now fully demonstrated his comprehensive ability on both offense and defense.

The point difference was narrowed to 2 points.In the next 3 minutes, the two sides each scored 2 goals under the basket with the help of the center, and the score also came to 10:8, and the Jiangsu team temporarily took the lead.At this time, the coach of the Jiangsu team requested a timeout, and then the cheerleaders came on stage.

After the timeout, both teams of the Guangsha team made personnel adjustments: for the Guangsha team, Yin Kui replaced Ying Xiong, and Collins replaced Thompson; for the Jiangsu team, Hu Xuefeng replaced Han Shuo.

After Ying Xiong left the court, the dialogue between the two small point guards Yin Kui and Hu Xuefeng attracted special attention; and on the inside, the confrontation between the Guangsha team's big center Collins and Tang Zhengdong's "heavy center" was not lacking in highlights.

Sure enough, since Collins played, the Guangsha team no longer double-teamed Tang Zhengdong.Tang Zhengdong ate Collins one-on-one in the low position, but he didn't get any advantage, and was sentenced to a walking violation instead.

However, in the confrontation outside, the Jiangsu team was even better.Under the leadership of Hu Xuefeng from the outside, the Jiangsu team has a high 3-point shooting percentage.On the contrary, the Guangsha team has not opened up for a long time.The outside feel is not good, so the Jiangsu team shrinks the basket to limit Collins' strong play and Yu Junkai and Zhang Nan's breakthrough.

At the end of the first quarter, the Jiangsu team led the Guangsha team by 30 points at 20:10.Faced with a double-digit disadvantage in the first quarter, the home fans of the Guangsha team felt extremely aggrieved, which was completely different from the relaxed and happy feeling of the previous game.
