Naqba wanted to stand up and take on the task of scoring the team, but Zhang Guan stepped forward earlier. After a steal, a fast break layup grabbed the lead.

Dragic shook his head in frustration. This ball was entirely his responsibility. If it wasn't for his passing error to be intercepted by Zhang Guan, it would not cause Zhang Zhang's fast break.

"It's okay, don't care. Zhang Guan's speed is really fast. If he is replaced by someone else, he will also be stolen."

However, Draghi can feel that Zhang Guan's steal is not as simple as it seems.

In the Phoenix Suns, Dragic as a backup guard is not the core of the tactics, and the team rarely arranges for him the pick-and-roll tactics he is good at, so Dragic is more of a firepower supplement in the bench. Instead of a passer. But this does not mean that Dragic's passing level is poor. In fact, as a European defender, it is impossible to pass the pass.

Dragic is still very confident in his passing level, and the interception just made by Zhang Guan was done from the front. This is not simply a fast speed. It also requires accurate judgment.

"Zhang Guan judged my passing route in advance, so he could complete this steal." Dragic took a deep breath, and he suddenly felt that Zhang Guan might be more difficult than the rumor.

...

The game continued, and the smart Dragic felt the pressure brought by Zhang Guan in his first attack, and his play became conservative. In many cases, he even chose to pass the ball just after halftime. Give Nakba, and then Nakba completes the attack.

Naqba can only be regarded as a qualified substitute in the NBA, especially his excellent performance in shooting, making him a good shooter, the team also needs him to contribute outside the three-point line . But in the Slovenian team, Nakba as the core of tactics, but also to shoulder the important task of organizing offense, and Slovenia's tactical system can also activate Nakba's assist ability. So Nakba took the decisive task of guarding Dragic decisively and began to command the team's offensive.

Brezek and Dayao were locked by each other. Facing Dayao, who was taller, it was obviously impossible for Brezek to take the offensive. And Dragic is completely disadvantaged in the face of Zhang Guan, so in addition to himself, Naqba can only rely on the two teammates Zupan and Rakovic.

Zupan is obviously the best choice to end the offense. Although the deaf player is in the position of small forward, he is tall and heavy enough to play power forward, and he has an advantage in the matchup. At the same time, Zupan's technology is good, and the player is very high. The key is to focus on playing. As a terminator of offense, this player has a higher scoring success rate.

As the initiator of the attack, Naqba chose Zupan as the main vitality output point without hesitation. Zupan also lived up to expectations, and even with a sudden shot, he scored eight points in an instant.

In terms of the Chinese team, it is not Zhang Guan who takes the lead in full vigor, but the United Arab League.

After the first goal, the next four attacks were completed by the United Arab Emirates. Although only four points were scored on two of four shots, two times caused a foul by the Slovenian defensive player and scored two points by free throws. Let the United League temporarily become the highest scoring person in the Chinese team.

The player who played against the Arab League was Lakovich, which was the main reason for the outbreak of the Arab League.

Although Lakovich has not played in the NBA, he was selected by the NBA in 2007 like the United League. The United League is the No. 6 rookie and belongs to the more advanced position in the lottery. No. 60 rookie, the last of all rookies.

Since the United League entered the NBA, it has been questioned. Many American media or basketball commentators think that his performance is not worthy of the No. 6 rookie position. Therefore, the 60th rookie in the same period today, Azerbaijan United is very eager to play a dominant level of performance, he wants to prove that he is definitely worthy of the No. 6 rookie position.

If the No. 6 rookie can't beat the No. 60 rookie of the same period, even if it's half a catty, it will inevitably be regarded as a "parallel import". Of course, the United Arab Emirates doesn't want to bring the name of "parallel import", so he appears in the attack. Incomparably positive and determined. The United League, whose height and technique are more dominant, allowed Rakovic to get two fouls in the middle of the first quarter.

In NBA games, players who usually lead two fouls in the first quarter will be replaced by the coach. Even in the second quarter, they will be used with caution. The NBA's rule is that only six fouls are sent off, while the international basketball rule is that five fouls are sent off. This is a difference, but the chance of fouling becomes more valuable. So getting two fouls in the first quarter is even more deadly.

After receiving the second foul, Lakovich was replaced by the Slovenian coach for the first time. The Slovenian team is not lacking in the fourth position. In addition to the bench, Zupan and Nakba in the starting lineup can also play the fourth position, so Lakovich may not be played in the second quarter. Opportunity.

The two sides made a 10-10 draw in the middle of the first quarter, which seems to be evenly matched, but in fact it is obvious that Slovenia has suffered because they have a main player who can only temporarily sit on the bench because of two fouls.

...

Coach Zidovic was very dissatisfied with the team's performance. He called for a timeout, but did not arrange the next tactics. Instead, he instilled soul chicken soup in his disciples.

"Don't you forget, how did we lose to the Chinese team at the World Championships four years ago? We suffered a lore in the last second, we worked hard for a whole game, but when we were about to win, Lost the game at the last moment!" Coach Ridovic growled loudly: "You must remember that we are the Avengers, the Avengers should be full of anger, and move forward, not fear the tail like a soft egg!"

Coach Zidovich obviously hopes that the players can play more aggressively, which is also in disguise to express his dissatisfaction towards Dragic. In the opinion of coach Zidovich, Dragic faces a crown, The fight is too conservative.

Dragic felt that the coach's eyes were fixed on himself. He could hear the extra meaning in coach Zidovic's words. He knew that if he didn't perform better, he might lose the trust of the coach.

The game started again, Dragic really behaved more courageously, facing Zhang Guan's defense, his offense was more decisive, with breakthroughs and shots, but unfortunately, the goal was not scored.

Facing Zhang Guan's defense, even Kobe did not choose to break through, but chose an emergency stop jumper, so Dragic was even more unlikely to break through Zhang Guan's defense. On the body, Dragic is far inferior to Zhang Guan, he can not force a breakthrough like a tank; on speed, Dragic is also far inferior to Zhang Guan, he can not use the speed to get rid of Zhang Guan.

The breakthrough was unsuccessful. Dragic can only force shots. This is also a kind of attack style that Dragic is very good at. Dragic's shooting percentage last season was as high as 45%, and the three-point shooting rate was even more Reaching 39%, these two figures are among the best in the NBA guards. He also relied on this weapon to firmly position the Suns as a backup guard.

The three-point line of international basketball is closer, so the shot should be easier to shoot, but not only is the pressure exerted by the crown on Dragic, too, or Dragic's own feel is too bad, several consecutive times The shots all deviated from the rim and were even blocked by Zhang Guan once.

Dragic is not the kind of player who is good at emergency stop jumpers. He is good at shooting. One is to prepare a jumper after receiving the ball, and the other is a mid-range backstepping jumper. However, the former requires the cooperation of teammates, such as pick and roll After the gap, the latter's action frequency is slow, which is also a flaw in Dragic's CIC technology.

Last season, Dragic also often used backstepping jumpers, but since then everyone is familiar with his technical characteristics. Knowing that his backstepping jumpers are slow, he has a more targeted response. In today's game, Dragic's opponent is Zhang Guan, a player who runs fast and jumps quickly, and his slow movement has become a fatal injury to Dragic's shooting.

Because Dragic failed several times in a row, the Chinese team also took this opportunity to open the score and gained a 5-point lead.

At this time, Dayao's playing time was up, he was replaced, and he appeared in the center position by replacing him roughly.

The height is about two centimeters shorter than Brezek, and the physical confrontation can not put pressure on Brezek, which allows Brezek to finally play. In just three rounds, Brezek has four points Credited. But roughly in the fourth round, a color, a long three-pointer hit, making Brezek's face difficult to look.

The opening of a roughly three-pointer means that Brezek's defense must go beyond the three-point line. When facing Da Yao before, Brezek only had to stay in the basket to defend. After all, international basketball rules are not defensive for three seconds, and this is where the power center is strong under international basketball rules. And now Brezek, a 216-centimeter center, is forced to appear on the three-point line to defend, undoubtedly weakening the center's advantage.

Brezek ran to the three-point line and also gave Zhang Guan the chance to break through.

Prior to this, Dayao and Brezek stayed inside and had occupied a lot of space. If two power forwards are added, the basket is very crowded, which is not conducive to the backcourt players. breakthrough. But now that two power centers are missing, Zhang Guan instantly gains great breakthrough space.

Zhang Guan did not miss this opportunity. Once Brezek was roughly pulled out, he immediately chose to break through, and it was still the kind of fancy breakthrough that relied solely on body and speed.

Dragic once again became a victim. He clearly knew that Zhang Guan was going to break through, but he could not prevent Zhang Guan. However, he wanted to prevent Zhang Guan very much, so when the speed and body were not as good, he could only Choose an eye-catching defensive method and use a larger movement to stop Zhang Guan.

The whistle sounded, Dragic because of his lack of calm, also received two fouls at the end of the first quarter, no doubt, he is unlikely to appear again in the first half of the game.

Both starters received two fouls, and Slovenia’s road of revenge seemed extremely rugged and difficult. Even though the Slovenian team has a deep basketball background, the strength of the bench is still not as good as the starting player. The first half of the game ended At that time, China maintained a 7-point lead with 42 to 35.

...

In the locker room, Slovenian players bowed their heads in a very frustrated manner, and in front of them, coach Zidovic was somber, as if he had just returned from hell.

"Look what you look like? It's just 7 points behind, and there is still a full half time, we only need three or four goals to overtake the score! What are you so frustrated?" Coach Zidovic said, The tactical board was pushed away, and then said: "In the second half of the game, we have to change. We have to play our own style. I need you to move and cooperate with each other! Especially you, Golan."

Coach Zidovic looked at Dragic and then said: "What I need is a commander, not a person who can only run around and throw blindly. As a point guard, you must calm down and direct this Battles, so you can’t stay the same. Since you can’t vote, don’t waste your chances, you can try other methods, such as playing a pick-and-roll with your teammates, that’s your best method, that’s your sharpest Weapons. Remember, a smart player must know how to hide his weaknesses and put his strongest weapon at the front!"

...

In the second half of the game, the two sides again replaced the starting lineup.

The Slovenian team changed their tactics, and Dragic had a pick-and-roll cooperation with the commander Rakovic in the first attack.

Lakovich was the most depressed player in the first half. He only played five minutes and was forced to go to rest because of two fouls. He was suffocated. In the second half of the game, he seized the opportunity of this first attack, using the space that appeared after the pick-and-roll change, he successfully scored a three-pointer.

As a Slovenian inside player, although it looks like that kind of power inside, Lakovich still has a three-point ability. Among the European insiders, eight or nine can shoot three-pointers. Lakovi Qi is no exception.

Under Dragic's command, Naqba and Brezek also successively passed the pick-and-roll defense and scored two points each. However, China's only scored in these three offenses, and the difference between the two sides has narrowed to within two points.

Dayao's footsteps are still somewhat unable to keep up with the frequency of pick-and-roll protection. Especially after Brezek also joined the pick-and-roll, Dayo was unable to handle the defense after the pick-and-roll. Deng Huad hesitated and decided to replace Dayao first. At this time, how to deal with Slovenia's pick-and-roll tactics has become a problem in front of Deng Huade. (To be continued.)
