Chapter 15 Counterpoint Spanoris!
Of course, the match between China and Greece is not the most popular. In the international arena, the most popular one is always the American team. In the match between the American team, it is like a large-scale star-chasing scene, and local fans of NBA will gather to watch the game.
But the match between the Chinese and Greek teams is not low, of course it was for Zhou Mubai.
On the day of the game, the stadium was filled with fans, and many graceful Turkish girls appeared in the stadium with signs, all of which were for Zhou Mubai.
In their eyes, Zhou Mubai may not be very handsome, but he deeply attracted them with his exotic charm and powerful strength.
The starting lineup of the Greek team is: Spanoris, Borossi, Di Amantidis, Chacharis, and Jessis.
The starting lineup of the Chinese team is: Zhou Mubai, Sun Yue, Wang Shipeng, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian and Borossi jumped the ball in the middle circle, and Yi Jianlian took the lead in placing the ball to Zhou Mubai.
Zhou Mubai held the ball and passed the halftime, Span Norris and his teammates stood in the joint defense. Seeing this, Zhou Mubai took a three-pointer and two-step move away from the three-pointer, hitting a three-pointer.
Today's game was not that simple, and Zhou Mubai didn't hide it, so he started attacking directly.
Spanoris looked at Zhou Mubai in surprise.
Of course, Spanoris has done his homework for players of Zhou Mubai, and the entire Greek team has done it. Their evaluation of Zhou Mubai is that this is a terrible all-round player, but he looks a bit thin and is a player with basically no flaws.
Whether it is offense or defense, whether it is personal ability or ability to command the overall situation, Zhou Mubai is the top among the top.
However, in the eyes of the Greek team, to defeat the Chinese team, you may not have to defeat Zhou Mubai, just like when they defeat the American team, you may not have to defeat James and Anthony. The team is their foundation.
But what he didn't expect was that Zhou Mubai started the offensive mode as soon as he came up.
In his understanding, Zhou Mubai is an extremely team player. In a sense, he is the same type of person as himself, both of which are mainly passing and assisting and scoring as the auxiliary game.
For players like them, they have to develop the feel of the entire team from the beginning, rather than choosing to attack by themselves.
But Zhou Mubai not only attacked, but was also very determined, and chose the offensive method of long-distance three-pointers. To be honest, this method is not a good choice in Spanoris's concept.
Spanoris passed the ball with the ball for halftime, and Zhou Mubai did not let him go so easily. The Chinese team has always been very desperate on the defensive end, pressing tightly throughout the game, and pressing tightly in the halftime is common, in order not to make the opponent make mistakes or steal the opponent, but to break the opponent's rhythm.
Under high-intensity defense, the opponent has to spend a certain amount of offensive time and a lot of physical strength to deal with it, drag the opponent into his own rhythm, and then find an opportunity to defeat the opponent.
This is the strategy of the weak team.
Zhou Mubai likes this kind of defense very much. His physical strength is almost limitless, and he doesn't care about wasting physical strength or something.
Few coaches in NBA choose this way, but in the fiba arena, every game is crucial due to the schedule.
Therefore, the weak team must try every means to increase their chances of winning, especially for the Chinese team, hard work is a way to increase their chances of winning, and Zhou Mubai is quite adaptable in this atmosphere.
Spanoris has never been overestimated with this kind of defense because his sharp breakthrough made many NBA brands feel ashamed of themselves. This kind of pressing is a piece of cake for his breakthrough ability, and it is easy to give him the opportunity to break through.
But he soon found out that he was wrong.
Zhou Mubai's defense is definitely not an ordinary defense. Before that, he knew that Zhou Mubai's defense was very strong, but he did not have a specific understanding. Now when Zhou Mubai was executing a full-game press against him, he felt the greatest pressure in his life!
Zhou Mubai's height is similar to his, but his weight is lighter than him. Spanoris thought that if he couldn't use his steps, he would probably be able to crush him with his body. However, after trying it with his body, he realized why Zhou Mubai was able to kill all sides in the NBA - his confrontation was too powerful!
Under Zhou Mubai's defense, Spanoris found that he could not make it through with his footsteps and could not make it through his body to use his physical confrontation to create space for himself. He was embarrassed to find that he could not even make it by himself to spend half the game. Fortunately, Borossi quickly came over to help him provide a cover to get through the frontcourt successfully.
Spanoris passed the half and quickly let Borosis pick-and-roll again.
Spanoris' style is more like Nash. He is not a commander and is not as good as Papalokas in the overall situation. His assault ability, pick-and-roll cooperation with the inside, and even the speed of attack and long-range shooting skills are all very similar to the Canadian who led the sun to whirlwind.
Pick-and-roll is his specialty.
The pick-and-roll is quite demanding for the ball holder, and there are two main requirements.
One is the ability to shoot from a long shot, and the other is the passing.
Span Norris' pass is undoubtedly a master level.
He is very good at passing the ball like a stunt. As long as there is a little chance, Span Norris will be sure to pass it in place.
He is almost familiar with various pass methods, including the very difficult hitting the earth.
He doesn't need too much passing angle, he reacts entirely based on the tacit understanding between himself and his teammates.
Moreover, the rhythm of the ball he passed was very good, and the receiver would be very comfortable. The rhythm was very important for a pitcher, and Spanoris's pass seemed to lead the receiver's rhythm invisibly.
In place - catch the ball - jump - take action, the whole movement is completed in one go, extremely smooth.
Borossi went as soon as he blocked, and he believed that Spanoris would pass the ball to his hand. He walked into the paint area and looked back and couldn't help but exhaled.
He and Spanoris picked and rolled the ball, Yi Jianlian changed defense directly, and Zhou Mubai gave up Borosis directly. Spanoris saw the opportunity to directly get Borosis into the basket. He just wanted to use a high lob to make an all-in-one catch for Borosis, but suddenly felt the ball in his hand being taken off!
What Borossi saw was the scene where Zhou Mubai took off the basketball from Spanoris's hand.
Zhou Mubai grabbed the floor ball and launched an offensive and defensive transition as soon as possible. Zhou Mubai ran all the way and rushed into the basket. Greece's defense returned quickly. Zhou Mubai was not in a hurry and passed the ball back to Wang Shipeng, who was empty at the three-point line.
Wang Shipeng, who has been training with Zhou Mubai for nearly a month and has played three warm-up matches together, has long understood Zhou Mubai’s requirements - as long as it is an open position, he has to make a shot no matter what!
Wang Shipeng chased and made a three-pointer, hitting the target!
