Zhao Feiyang's goal made the crowd cheer.
The fans' only hope is him. Now that they see Zhao Feiyang step up and easily break through to the basket to complete an attack, this undoubtedly makes the fans calm down again.
The game goes on.
It was Lebanon's turn to serve.
After the opponent took the ball across half court, defender Khatib did not rush to pass the ball to Thomas, but actively signaled his teammates to cover.
When Thomas saw Khatib's action, he also pretended to go over and take over, deliberately taking Zhao Feiyang to the flank position.
This time Khatib took advantage of the situation and launched an attack. After a feint, he rushed into the two zones from the right. When the Chinese men's basketball team came up to cover the inside defense, Khatib threw the ball with a high throw. Center Robinson under the basket caught the ball in mid-air and scored with a cover-up dunk.
boom.
The ball went in.
The opponent's tactical cooperation is very effective.
When the Chinese men's basketball team counterattacked, Zhao Feiyang also gave Zhang Hao a signal to organize an attack. Zhang Hao picked up the ball and observed it at the top of the arc. After watching it for a while, he found that there seemed to be no way to transfer the ball except to Zhao Feiyang.
Zhao Feiyang also discovered this problem.
Helpless, he could only run over from the wing to catch the ball. Once he got the ball, he simply started singles mode, changed directions and swayed one after another and rushed into the basket. Even in the face of Thomas' follow-up defense, Zhao Feiyang seized the opportunity to use his left hand. Pull the lever to throw the ball into the basket.
The ball went in again.
Throughout the rest of the third quarter, the only opponent the Lebanon team faced seemed to be Zhao Feiyang.
He is almost omnipotent on the court, either shooting three-pointers alone or breaking through to the basket. Whether it is a mid-range shot or a pull-up layup, Zhao Feiyang's timing is very effective.
His style of play also allowed the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team to stop the trend of widening the score gap, and even gradually narrowed the score gap to single digits.
Unlike the Chinese men's basketball team that relies too much on Zhao Feiyang, the Lebanese team has two options.
Naturalized players Robinson and Thomas cooperate very well. The two of them, inside and outside, are constantly looking for various opportunities to hit the basket.
Relying on Robinson's dominance under the basket, the Lebanon team still maintained its lead even as Zhao Feiyang continued to chase points.
With less than 1 minute left in the third quarter of the two sides, the score between the Chinese Men's Basketball Team and the Lebanese Men's Basketball Team was 60 to 64.
Lebanon leads by 4 points.
During the break before the last quarter, on the bench of the China Men's Basketball Team, head coach Su Mingtao was also confused by the lineup on the court.
He glanced at the young players on the team bench and felt helpless.
Zhao Feiyang, who was resting on the sidelines, saw the embarrassment of head coach Su Mingtao. He suddenly made a gesture to Su Mingtao, and then said, "Coach, how about we play a three-back tactic?"
"I'll go to position three!"
"Let Zhang Hao and Xin Yong be responsible for playing the No. 1 and No. 2 positions..."
A three-back tactic?
Coach Su Mingtao hesitated.
For the Chinese men's basketball team, the three-back tactic is not unusual. Compared with the general lineup arrangement, the three-back tactic will speed up the team's overall offensive rhythm, especially when the defenders have strong shooting abilities, the three-back tactic will undoubtedly make a team faster.
But similarly, if there is a tall striker in the opponent's lineup, this tactic will undoubtedly suffer some disadvantages.
After all, the defender who is temporarily moved to the third position is usually not as tall as the opponent's forward player, and will suffer a little in physical confrontation.
The other party can also seize such loopholes to attack. Once a mistake is made, it is likely to cause the whole game to be lost.
The current problem of the China Men's Basketball Team is that only Zhao Feiyang can play. When the opponent gradually adopts double-teaming, it is unrealistic to let Zhao Feiyang play alone.
So, under this situation, it seems to be a feasible plan to move Zhao Feiyang to the third position and temporarily change the tactical play.
"Try?"
Coach Su Mingtao asked hesitantly.
"bring it on!"
Zhao Feiyang stood up and quickly called his teammates together.
call out.
When the referee's whistle sounded again, the lineup arrangement of the Chinese men's basketball team was over. When Zhao Feiyang led Zhang Hao and Xin Yong onto the court, many fans at the scene exclaimed.
"What's going on? Three defenders?"
"Is this going to change tactics? Are we going to use the third position tactic?"
"Huh? Why did Zhao Feiyang go to guard the opponent's small forward?"
"The opponent's small forward is a head taller than Zhao Feiyang. Is it possible to play a three-back tactic?"
Fans were talking a lot, and obviously such a temporary change caused many people to question it.
On the opposite side of the Lebanese team's bench, the opponent also noticed the new lineup of the Chinese men's basketball team. After realizing that the Chinese men's basketball team was preparing to play a three-back tactic, the Lebanon team did not make any changes.
On the contrary, the two naturalized players couldn't help laughing.
"Robinson, did you see that? They are going to let Zhao play our third position...oh! This is really a bold attempt!"
"Whatever! I know Zhao is very good, but this guy is always a defender. His height has no advantage against the third position player. Our teammate is called Spellman, right? His physical fitness But the strongest guy in the team...that guy Zhao is going to have to suffer a little bit..."
On the field.
Zhao Feiyang chose to take the initiative to mark the opponent's No. 3 Spellman. After walking next to the other party, Zhao Feiyang truly felt that the other party was really big. It seemed that he was better than him in terms of height and muscles.
"Holy shit!"
Zhao Feiyang couldn't help but complain in his heart.
It was the Lebanese team's turn to continue serving.
The ball passed halftime. Thomas, who got the ball this time, did not choose to play singles. He seemed to be very interested in Zhao Feiyang switching to guard Spellman. He not only gave up his own offensive opportunity, but also took the ball to the wing and tried to hand it to the opponent. .
"Hey! Spellman, come here and catch the ball!"
"I?"
"Of course. This guy is shorter than you and not as strong as you. Why don't you take the initiative to fight him alone? This is your chance..."
Snapped.
After Thomas finished speaking, he threw the basketball into Spellman's hands.
Spellman, who got the ball, also became very excited because of the few words he just said. He looked at Zhao Feiyang who was in a defensive posture in front of him, and for a moment he felt an extremely passionate desire to fight.
One on one.
Spellman first tried to feint, but after seeing that Zhao Feiyang was not deceived, Spellman stopped hesitating and drove the ball directly to the basket.
The sudden tough play made it difficult for Zhao Feiyang to adapt. Before he could use his strength to deal with Spellman's strong play, Spellman dribbled the ball straight to the basket.
boom.
Relying on Robinson's pick-and-roll screen, Spellman encountered no obstacles at the basket and successfully smashed the ball into the basket with a one-handed dunk.
The ball went in.
The whole place was in an uproar.
This is the first time Zhao Feiyang has been hacked and dunked.
Even if it was because of the opponent's misplaced singles, I have to say that this scene still shocked the fans.
"It's over! This is like being beaten by the opponent's big man!"
"Alas! It's really difficult to do it if you misplace it. Zhao Feiyang's body is not as strong as the opponent's and he's not nearly as tall... Let alone him. Even if you let Paul guard someone who is taller and stronger than you, I'm afraid it will be difficult. I can’t fight!”
"Irving's singles ability is very strong, right? But if he goes one-on-one with a big man like Durant, he will definitely suffer... Basketball is a sport that requires too much physical fitness! Otherwise, with Iverson's skills and talent, if it weren't for his height problem, his achievements would definitely be more outstanding than those in history..."
It was the Chinese men's basketball team's turn to attack.
Zhang Hao advanced with the ball, and both Xin Yong and Zhao Feiyang crossed the half court first. After arriving at halftime, Zhang Hao organized the attack, and both Xin Yong and Zhao Feiyang became active on the flanks.
Snapped.
Zhang Hao gave the ball to Zhao Feiyang.
Zhao Feiyang did not rush to attack with the ball, but transferred the ball to Liu Yunwei under the basket. Liu Yunwei failed to pass the ball in singles and passed it to Xin Yong at a 45-degree angle.
The ball rights kept changing like this, and finally fell into the hands of Zhao Feiyang.
Facing Spellman who was guarding him, Zhao Feiyang raised the basketball and threw a three-pointer neatly in.
Uh-huh.
The ball went in.
In the face of his powerful offensive ability, even if Spellman's height is more advantageous, he cannot stop his offense.
The game goes on.
More than a minute later, the Lebanon team advanced the ball to the half-court side.
This time, defender Thomas deliberately gave the ball to Spellman. After getting the ball, Spellman became extremely excited this time because of his previous successful experience. As soon as he received the basketball, he directly hit Zhao Feiyang with his back.
Zhao Feiyang was not knocked away by his back. After seriously assuming a defensive posture, his system-optimized physical fitness began to show.
Spellman was bumped but did not respond, and then bumped again. After several bumps in succession, he did not notice that Zhao Feiyang was pushed away. Spellman's face was also full of surprise.
"Is this guy so physically strong?"
"It shouldn't be..."
Spellman was dubious and suddenly dribbled towards the basket.
He used his height advantage to reach the penalty area smoothly. When he was about to lift the basketball, Zhao Feiyang jumped up high and saw the opportunity. When Spellman couldn't believe it, Zhao Feiyang slapped him and threw him away. The basketball that came out was slapped hard and flew onto the backboard.
Snapped.
The basketball bounced away.
This bloody cap excited the fans at the scene.
The Chinese men's basketball bench off the court cheered continuously.
"Well done!"
"Niubi!"
The basketball fell out and Xin Yong immediately seized the ball.
After getting the ball, the Huaxia Men's Basketball Team quickly launched defensive counterattack tactics. Both Zhao Feiyang and Zhang Hao reacted very quickly. The two rushed across the half court one after another. Xin Yong gave the ball to Zhao Feiyang in the chaos. Zhao Feiyang did not hesitate and threw the ball directly to the basket.
Zhang Hao caught the basketball while running, and when the opponent's player came over to defend him, he had already jumped up and sent the ball into the basket.
Uh-huh.
The ball went in.
The offensive rhythm played by the Chinese men's basketball team finally made the Lebanese team nervous.
