Chapter 445: Astute Varejao
After grabbing the defensive rebound, Yi Dun passed it directly to Dazhi, and then quickly followed many outside teammates to start running and counterattack.
Now the players of the national team are becoming more and more confident. After Zhu Fangyu arrived at the frontcourt, he received the ball and directly shot a three-pointer from the three-point line without saying a word.
If it were other times, the timing of this three-point shooting could be said to be extremely bad, mainly because there were no teammates at the frontcourt basket yet. If this failed to make a shot, it would almost mean that the ball was transferred to the opponent.
But now, because of Yi Dun on the field, Zhu Fangyu is quite confident.
With a "bang!", the ball failed to hit.
However, Yi Dun also arrived in a flash, grabbed the rebound in mid-air, and then directly pressed into the basket.
At the beginning, Yi Dun directly used his absolutely strong performance, and the opponent Brazil team was dissatisfied.
Yi Dun's physical fitness is really perverted. His super defensive ability and this super counterattack ability have caused great headaches for the Brazilian generals. They really couldn't think of any way to solve Yi Dun.
The only way now is to let Valejo take action.
Barbosa said something to Valejo during the offensive stage, and Yi Dun naturally couldn't understand their conversation, but looking at it, he should be targeting him.
Yi Dun didn't think anything was wrong. If it were him, there was a player like him in the opponent's lineup, so he would definitely have to find a way to target him.
...
Yi Dun was still staring at Barbosa, but this time Barbosa had no desire to take action and directly looked for an opportunity to pass the ball to Vallejo.
Valejo's offensive ability is not excellent, but that is only placed in the NBA environment. Moreover, even in the NBA, Valejo's offensive ability is definitely not the worst in the center, and he can rank in the middle position.
After receiving the ball, Valejo started to play against Dazhi directly at the basket.
Dazhi was pushed back repeatedly. Dazhi himself was not a powerful inside player. In addition, he is old now, how can he beat the young and strong Valaijo?
After squeezing out the right shot space, Valecho scored a small angle to play cricket and hit the ball in.
The ball just scored, and Valejo took a big step and returned to the backcourt, for fear of sending a quick counterattack to Yi Dun.
Because all the opponent's players have been placed, there is no need for the Chinese team to break fast. After the ball reaches the frontcourt, Yi Dun stood outside the three-point line. He is ready to rush to the basket and just wait for his teammates to give a gesture.
In the end, the ball was passed into Dazhi's hand. Dazhi raised his arm and pointed his finger at the ceiling. This was the gesture that made Yi Dun break under the basket.
After Yi Dun got the gesture, he rushed towards the basket without saying a word.
The power of this charge is quite amazing. If you are not a big center with thick skin, you will definitely not want to appear on Yi Dun's charge path.
Valaijo was immediately energetic, and he was waiting for this opportunity.
Seeing that Dazhi had already thrown the ball towards the basket, and Yi Dun had already crossed the free throw line, Valejo had already made the calculations in his mind.
What to calculate? Of course, it is to calculate your own position. How can Yi Dun get a foul that hits someone and commits a foul.
Fans who often watch football may sometimes ask questions if they are not familiar with the rules of basketball, such as some balls that look like an offensive player's foul, but the referee blew a defensive player's blocking foul.
Some balls seem to be blocking fouls by the defensive player, but the referee blew the offensive player's fouls by the man.
This situation is not rare. Not to mention ordinary fans, sometimes they are professional commentators and may also ask such questions.
Especially in situations like Yi Dun who breaks without a ball, there will be a lot of controversy.
This situation occurs mainly because the difference between hitting someone and blocking is actually just a difference between choosing the timing.
For example, Valaijo is now a defensive player who defends against off-ball attacks.
Valaicho cannot occupy a cylinder space in the route that is too close to Yidun or too fast to Yidun to prevent Yidun from not having enough time to stop or change the direction of his journey.
If Valejo really did this and the two collided, the referee could only call Valejo a foul.
But if Valejo ran to Yidun's route at the right time or distance and occupied a cylinder space, in this case, if the two of them collided, it would be Yidun's offensive foul.
The specific distance and time are suitable, and this will definitely be determined by the referee on the field.
So this causes some situations that sometimes seem to be hitting someone, but the referee blew the defensive player to block the foul.
Now Valejo is calculating the distance and timing, and strives to make Yi Dun bear the last foul without any effort.
Unlike NBA, the players in the Fiba game only have to make five fouls and they can't stay on the court again. Valaijo can only successfully commit Yidun's five fouls, and they won this game.
Yi Dun was still curious when he saw Valaijo standing under the basket, but he didn't think much about it, and did not delay his charge and continued to rush towards the basket.
The ball passed by Dazhi was quite exquisite. It was not to pass the ball towards the front of the basket, but to the front, which gave Yi Dun a reaction time.
Yi Dun jumped, and he will take the pass in the air and then take the dunk to help the Chinese men's basketball team score two more points.
Just before Yi Dun took off, Valecho also started moving at the right time. The time was extremely exquisite, and it would be a pity not to be a timer in the track race.
Next, there was only a loud noise of physical collision. Valaijo had been knocked back and flew backwards, sitting on the floor and sliding for several meters, directly out of bounds.
As an experienced old fry and an inside position that often needs hand-to-hand combat, Valejo knows quite well how to protect himself.
This time, although Valaijo doesn't run away, it looks extremely miserable, but in fact, Valaijo has nothing to do with it. He can stand up and start fighting again at any time.
But the shrewd Valaijo definitely cannot stand up now, so he has to wait until the referee finishes blowing the whistle.
Yi Dun had no effect. After hitting Valaijo, he stretched out his arms and barely handed the ball into the basket.
Just as Yi Dun showed joy and felt that he had won two points to make the credit, the referee's whistle sounded.
Yi Dun was directly judged to have a foul that hit someone without a ball, which made Yi Dun stunned, because in Yi Dun's view, this was clearly Valejo on his own route. If he really wanted to be judged, Valejo's blocking foul should be judged.
Domestic audiences were furious as Yi Dun took a foul just as the opening game.
However, there must be some fans who are familiar with the rules. At this moment, they analyzed to other fans why the referee called Yi Dun's foul rather than Valaijo's blocking foul.
If the referee brags like this, there is actually nothing wrong with it.
The timing of Valaijo's choice was just right. If it were other referees, it would definitely be the same penalty.
