Chapter 270 tug of war

The first attack ended with a slam dunk. Although it wasn't the audience's favorite fast-break dunk, it still ignited the enthusiasm of the audience. After all, the opponent was Huaxia, the overlord of the league in the past few seasons.

But not long after they were happy, Simmons took advantage of Jordan's pick-and-roll to force his way inside. Because Luo Mang went out to guard Jordan, Wei Meng on the inside was caught by Fann again, and Lin Sen couldn't restrain Simmons at all. He is so strong, so he can only watch him easily dunk in return.

Looking back, the Wolves still used the same tactic, giving the ball to Luo Mang as before. This time, the players defending Lu Qian went to pinch ahead of time, but Luo Mang had quick eyesight and quick hands, and quickly passed the ball to Lu Qian. Lu Qian also finished with a dunk.

West frowned. If he kept playing like this, he would definitely be blown up by the opponent at the basket, so he called Fann to his side while serving the ball, and quickly told him to switch defenses with his teammates, and let him defend Luo Mang. In this way, the basket will not be passive.

Fann nodded, and hurriedly turned back to convey the coach's intentions to his teammates.

Simmons is still holding the ball outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, and Jordan once again got rid of Luo Mang's pick-and-roll.

This time Luo Mang and Lin Sen chose to switch defenses. Simmons saw that the defender had changed to Luo Mang. Halfway through, he dribbled the ball under his crotch to slow down and handed the ball to Jordan.

Han Bin quickly stepped forward to attack, but Jordan had already made a judgment, so he quickly dribbled the ball and broke through from the other side of Lin Sen. Lin Sen could keep up, but the difference in height and weight was too great, and he couldn't hold it at all. Jordan involuntarily backed away as soon as he leaned on it.

Jordan found a good opportunity, and before Han Bin caught up, he chose a jumper with an emergency stop and hit two points steadily.

For the Wolves to attack, Wei Meng still came out to pick and roll, but the player who followed him was replaced by their substitute small forward, and Lin Sen's pass angle was blocked by Simmons, so he had to reorganize.

Han Bin led Jordan around the opponent's half, and took advantage of Lu Qian's cover to come out to catch the ball. Lin Sen passed the ball at the first time, but Jordan didn't defend well, and the small forward who was marking Wei Meng had to go Supplementary defense, in this way, Wei Meng on the outside line was completely missed.

"Here." He hurriedly reminded.

Han Bin quickly transferred it to him without hesitation. When Wei Meng got the ball, he was about to shoot when Simmons rushed over. Deng has switched defenses in place.

Lin Sen couldn't shoot, but Lu Qian was already in position, so he faked and passed the ball to Lu Qian from an angle. Hit the board while fouling.

After scoring the goal, he glanced at the defensive player provocatively, "Dude, you are too young to defend me."

The defender snorted and turned to walk away.

Lu Qian's eyes flashed, this kid is quite calm, but it's okay, I will beat you until you are convinced.

Both the offensive and defensive sides did a great job on this ball, but the defensive players couldn't handle Lu Qian at all. Now Lu Qian can form a dislocation against almost anyone, but it's a pity that his footsteps are slow, and his long-range shots are getting more and more unstable.

On the contrary, his back hitting is getting more and more experienced. As long as he wants to be in place, whether he can make it depends on his own state.

An extra penalty was made, and the score was exceeded again, and deafening cheers rang out in the arena again.

Huaxia attacked, but this time, the Wolves expanded their defensive area. As soon as Simmons passed halftime, Lin Sen pushed forward.

Jordan hesitated for a while because he didn't run out for the pick-and-roll, and was caught by Luo Mang again.

"Continue to attack me if you have the ability, don't pass it on."

Simmons also snorted and didn't respond. Not only did he not respond, but he also started to use back punches. Lin Sen couldn't bear it at all, and took a step back when he pushed him against him. However, Huaxia's offense also stagnated.

Jordan will not be able to get rid of Luo Mang for a while, and Simmons can't keep playing like this, so he can only cooperate with other people as a last resort, but the two substitute players don't have much ability to attack independently, and Fann Wei Meng circled forward to defend and get stuck in his position. If he lobs the ball in from such a long distance, he would be easily intercepted.

Seeing that there was not much time left, Simmons had no choice but to force a breakthrough. Lin Sen still couldn't bear it. Seeing that Simmons was about to take off again, he wanted to draw the ball but was powerless, so he could only choose to foul.

Since Simmons had already started to attack the frame, the referee gave him two free throws.

Simmons frowned and looked at Lin Sen. Lin Sen twitched his mouth and approached him and said, "If you are upset, you can also foul me."

"Hey, what are you doing?" The referee immediately walked over to separate them, and at the same time warned both of them, "I warn you, don't make trouble."

Lin Sen shrugged, but did not speak.

Simmons walked to the free throw line with a sullen face.

Although the audience has tried very hard to harass, Simmons still made two free throws and maintained a normal free throw level.

From this moment on, both sides strengthened their defensive strength at the same time, and the confrontation suddenly increased. It was difficult to play the tactics set by both sides. As a result, most of the time, the players could only rely on the personal ability of the players to resolve the battle.

China has two absolute strengths, Jordan and Simmons, and Fann's absolute height inside, so it has gradually gained the upper hand. However, the Wolves' strength on the field is more balanced, and Lu Qian can't limit this point at all. Coupled with Han Bin who exploded from time to time, even if Jordan and Simmons tried their best, they still could not widen the point difference.

If this fight continues, the situation will be reversed by the Wolves sooner or later. West can only use substitutions and increase the rotation to share the defensive pressure for Jordan and Simmons, so that they can focus all their energy on defense.

Lu Ziqiu also started to make substitutions, replacing Wei Meng with Gao Jun who had no chance to perform, and at the same time replacing Han Bin with Luo Peng. Float outside to fight.

After Gao Jun came on the court, he restricted Fan En's performance very well, while Luo Peng frequently used flexible running positions to catch the ball and jump shots. Although his shooting percentage was average, Gao Jun and Luo Mang had Gao Jun and Luo Mang under the blue, so he had an absolute advantage in rebounding. .

Huaxia suffered from rebounding. Fortunately, the offensive end was in good shape, and the substitute players gradually entered the state, sharing a lot of pressure for Jordan and Simmons. In addition, Lin Sen was restricted to death, and Lu Qian was also very powerful by the forward defense. Losing all, the score on the court will naturally be gradually opened up.

Lu Ziqiu called a timeout in time and rearranged his tactics. At the same time, he replaced Lu Qian with Lu Wei and Lin Sen with Xiao Zhi. The offensive end was organized by Lu Wei, and the defensive end was played by Xiao Zhi. He doesn't suffer from his height, and his defense is much better than Lin Sen's.

With such a change, Simmons, who had been playing well, became difficult to play. Without his containment and organization, except for Jordan, the rest of the players fell into a scoring drought.

On the Wolves side, Lu Wei used his experience to frequently break the opponent's defensive line with changes in rhythm. Driven by him, Luo Peng, Gao Jun and Luo Mang also survived, so they quickly recovered the point difference .

The two sides once again fell into a tug of war.
