Chapter 739 The rhythm is right
Throughout the 10 minutes of the first quarter, Venezuela was always in the lead.

In fact, their offensive tactics are quite simple.In most cases, it is Jiyang who breaks through with the ball, but he doesn't shoot much by himself. He often distributes the ball to teammates with better opportunities after attracting the defense.In Venezuela's lineup, the other four players can hit from the three-point line to the penalty area. Ji Yang only needs to hand over the basketball to the most suitable person in the first time. His four teammates can Take care of the last thing.

Clearly, everything the Venezuelan coach wanted to see was played out by the players.He chose a relatively small lineup, just to play a faster rhythm.Whether it is offense or defense, players must run.The Venezuelan players have done a very good job. In terms of the rhythm of the game, they have always been ahead of the Chinese men's basketball team.Even for a while, Venezuela even had the upper hand in rebounding.

During the break between festivals, Li Nan looked quite serious.Although there are not many scores behind, such a situation is not what he wants to see.In his vision, the twin towers of Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi will play a great role on the defensive end. After all, with their height and wingspan, they have a great advantage in the basket.It's a pity that they were all taken out of the penalty area by the Venezuelan striker and could not play their due ability.

Fortunately, the role of Yi Jianlian and Zhou Qi on the offensive end has not been weakened.Although the Venezuelan players are very active on the defensive end, the effect is not particularly perfect.In fact, the Venezuelan players have done a very good job whether it is going around the front or double-teaming, but they have always suffered a loss in height, which is difficult for this person to make up for.

"Boys, we must play our own game rhythm. In this quarter, we have been led by the nose by the opponent, and we are very passive. It is difficult to win if we continue to be so passive. So, in the next game, We're going to stick to our game and play what we do best. We..."

Of course, Li Nan also realized some mutual targeting points in the lineups of the two sides, but he did not immediately change his offensive arrangements according to the characteristics of the opponent.Li Nan firmly believes that they have an advantage, but they have not fully played out.However, for defense, he still made some changes.

The second quarter of the game began soon.In terms of personnel, both sides played with half sets of starting lineups and half sets of substitute lineups.For the Tianchao men's basketball team, Li Nan put Zhou Qi and An Luo on the court, and their partners were Wang Zhelin, Abdul Saramu and Zhao Jiwei, several rotation players that Li Nan trusted more in this World Cup.

After the start, Venezuela took the lead in attacking.Although they have also replaced a few players in their pattern, Venezuela still insists on the small lineup, changing the soup without changing the medicine.The No. 7 player who replaced Ji Yang quickly pushed the ball beyond the three-point line, and he immediately called his teammates to cover.After that, Zhao Jiwei was thrown off by his teammates' pick-and-roll and rushed to the free throw line.At this time, the players of the Tianchao team did not switch defenses as before.Wang Zhelin immediately stood in front of the opponent, delaying the time for the opponent to rush to the free throw line.At the same time, Zhao Jiwei also bypassed the Venezuelan big man at the fastest speed, and directly double-teamed the opponent's No. 7 player with Wang Zhelin.

Since you can't stop the opponent's shot, start the tightest defense from the point where the offense starts.Double-team the ball holder, force the opponent to make mistakes, and then use the mistakes to counterattack and fast break.Of course, this is the result that the Chinese men's basketball team most hopes to see, but it is not easy.However, since such a change has been made, it must at least prevent the ball holder from passing the ball easily.In the offensive round, once the starting point of the offense is not smooth, then this offense will also be very difficult.

Venezuela's No. 7 player is an experienced veteran. Although he was a little surprised when he was double-teamed by Chinese players, he did not appear particularly nervous.He stopped, protected the ball with both hands, with his left foot as the axis, and his right foot kept pointing forward, backward, left, and right on the floor. Then he leaned against Zhao Jiwei to forcefully open the space, smashed the ball on the floor, and passed it with one hit. The ball was handed to the substitute Carrera standing in the right elbow.The latter received the ball against Abdul Saramu, but he was more of a siege for his teammates and could not end the subsequent offense, so he continued to pass the ball to his teammates .

The Tianchao men's basketball team did a very good defense in this round.Their switching, double-teaming, and make-up defenses are impeccable.After a few passes back and forth between the Venezuelan players, the basketball found its way into Lewis' hands.Facing An Luo's defense, Lewis felt no less pressure than his teammates.However, he can no longer pass the ball!Because the attack time is running out this time, passing the ball again is an offensive violation.So after Lewis forcibly took a step to the right, he pulled up and threw the ball.

An Luo's reaction was extremely fast. The moment Lewis withdrew, he immediately stuck to it, and then jumped high.He was sure that at this point Lewis had no choice but to shoot.

"Snapped!"

The basketball that Lewis had just shot was directly slapped by An Luo.Although Lewis' position is a forward, his height and wingspan are not superior to An Luo's.In such a situation where there is no choice, it is normal to be covered.Of course, he himself didn't expect to be blocked when he shot the ball.Otherwise, Lewis' shooting arc would definitely be a bit higher.

Zhao Jiwei has sharp eyes and quick hands, he rushed over in one stride, picked up the ball and went straight to his basket.But Venezuela's No. 7 player is close behind, and he can easily be destroyed by the opponent if he lays up directly.Fortunately, when Zhao Jiwei advanced with the ball, An Luo also followed.Just when he came to the three-point line, Zhao Jiwei threw the ball directly to him.

An Luo didn't shoot the ball immediately after receiving the ball.He stood outside the three-point line, and as soon as he raised his hand, he shook the Venezuelan player who was flying up.Then, he slapped the ball on the spot before pulling it up and throwing the ball.

"Shh!"

The ball went in!After a perfect defense, An Luo made a chasing three-pointer.

Li Nan clapped his hands on the sidelines. In his heart, this is the rhythm of the Tianchao team's offense.Let the opponent make mistakes through tough defense, and then seize these mistakes to score.
