Chapter 589 Longboards and More Longboards

"Hi!" Lin Dong smiled and said to him: "Remember the tactical points that Coach Jiang told you?"

Chen Jianghua nodded: "If we want to beat this American team, we have to disrupt their rhythm and play our own rhythm!"

"In the first ball, their attention must be on me..." Lin Dong smiled and patted him again: "Give them a surprise, what super giant or not... Don't forget, you have also crossed my defense line!"

Chen Jianghua was stunned when he heard the words, and then he was a little bit amused.

Crossed Brother Lin's defense line by himself? Letting water and occasionally passing it, does that count? Just like when Brother Lin was in the NBA, Kobe, Wade and others also crossed Brother Lin's defense line, but how high was the probability...

However.

After a brief loss of consciousness, Chen Jianghua finally found his own point.

MD, it seems that he is similar to them. Anyway, they have occasionally broken through Brother Lin. Everyone is the same, I am afraid of you!

He patted his face and his eyes became determined.

What Brother Lin said is never wrong. Brother Lin knows more about the NBA. Since Brother Lin thinks he can give them a surprise... then he can definitely do it!

Damn, I'm the starter, let's go for it!

——The much-anticipated Dragon Country VS US men's basketball semi-final is about to begin!

——Although we lost to the US team in the last Olympics, Lin Dong gave up the NBA and high income and turned to the Champions League and domestic basketball construction. The dedication of this world's number one basketball player has made our basketball development quite fast in the past two years. I think we will definitely have a fighting force this year!

——Many people say that after Lin Dong left the NBA environment, his competitive state may be difficult to maintain at the peak, but I also watch the Champions League. Personally, I think that Lin Dong's strength has absolutely not deteriorated, and even makes me feel more stable when watching him play.

——This will definitely be a wonderful game. Let's cheer for the men's basketball team and wait for good news from the men's basketball team!

With the voices of Sun Zhengping and Coach Ma in the live broadcast room, the camera was pulled to the center of the court.

Although the background music had been turned off in the stadium, the enthusiastic shouts from the audience in the stands around still came like a tsunami, accompanied by the shouts that resounded across the country at this moment.

——Lin Dong! Lin Dong! Lin Dong!

The starting five of both sides were already in place, and Yao Ming and Duncan walked to the center line.

"Hi." Dayao smiled and greeted Duncan first.

The two belonged to the Western Conference of the NBA, and they fought from the regular season to the playoffs every year, and they were already old rivals.

Duncan smiled, did not speak, but looked down at Dayao's right knee: "Is your leg okay?"

Yao Ming subconsciously reached out and touched his knee, where he was wearing a patched knee pad.

This has to talk about the decisive battle between the Lakers and the Spurs in this year's playoffs. The fierce competition caused Dayao and Bruce Bowen to hit their knees hard.

The slow-motion footage at the time showed that Bruce Bowen was obviously doing it on purpose... There are always some so-called "dirty" players on the court. Such people are unforgivable as opponents, but as teammates, they are often the ones who take the blame for the team.

Although the home referee at the time did not hesitate to send Bruce Bowen off the court, and the league added three more games of suspension for Bowen after the game, the Spurs lost a general and then lost to the Lakers.

But to be honest... Duncan also admires this big guy.

Bowen is such a strong man, deliberately hit his knee hard, Bowen's knee was swollen, but he didn't knock this big guy down, and let him insist on finishing the game, and even didn't miss every game that followed.

Duncan felt that this could only mean that the Spurs' loss was not unfair at all, but he didn't know if it left any sequelae for this big guy. From his perspective, he really didn't want the other party to get hurt.

As for Yao Ming,

Dayao smiled and touched the knee pad on his knee. It was given to him by Lin Dong last year. The impact at that time punctured the knee pad, but he was not injured. In addition to saying that this thing is a lucky knee pad with a blessing from Lin Dong, Dayao didn't know how to explain it, so he patched the knee pad and put it on again. He really didn't plan to change it in this life.

This is God's wish for Longguo to win.

Standing at the door of the house, fighting against the most powerful basketball empire in the world with the strongest teammates in the history of Longguo, there is nothing more glorious than this!

"Of course it's okay." Dayao grinned and said, "Before defeating you, my leg can withstand another 10,000 critical hits!"

Duncan was stunned, then laughed and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Yao Ming, and then his eyes surged with fighting spirit: "Come on!"

The referee Yang Hongfeng stood beside the two giants with a basketball.

As the big camera shifted, the eyes of the world gathered at this moment, staring at the basketball in the referee's hand and the whistle in his mouth.

Hush!

With a whistle, Yang Hongfeng threw the basketball high into the air, and the game officially began.

One was the most important battle of killing gods in front of relatives at home, and the other was a battle of guarding the glory of the empire and the dignity of the basketball hall.

It can be seen that both of them have entered the game state early.

The two huge bodies jumped up almost at the same time.

In terms of jump ball, Duncan's height and wingspan are slightly disadvantaged, but Yao Ming's jumping ability is slightly inferior, so the two are equally strong, and most of the time, the jump ball still depends on luck.

But today, Yao Ming was obviously a little excited. The slightly insufficient jumping ability can be compensated by bursts and excitement, but the height and wingspan are the flaws that Duncan can't smooth out.

Snap!

Yao Ming's fingers first touched the basketball that began to fall after hovering, and pushed it towards the right side of Lin Dong.

The person responsible for guarding Lin Dong is obviously Kobe.

The rotation battle of Old K's tactics is only adjusted according to the rhythm, not the constant switching of defense.

When facing this guy one-on-one again, Kobe's blood has already boiled, and he seems to have the feeling of facing Jordan when he first entered the NBA.

The absolute concentration and excitement made Kobe's eyes like lightning at this time, and he was in the right state.

Seeing the basketball flying towards him, Kobe immediately squeezed to Lin Dong's side, trying to compete with Lin Dong for the landing point of the passing route and intercept in the middle of the route.

The two sides only had one block, and Lin Dong's dreamy footsteps immediately made Kobe seem to return to the summer of the Western Conference Finals two years ago.

Terrible consciousness, terrible footsteps... You can never use all the skills you know to compete with the opponent, because he can do what you can, and he always anticipates the enemy and can block in front of you, so that you can only be the lagging party and passively be beaten.

Two years of training made Kobe gradually forget the fear of being dominated by Lin Dong, but at this moment, just when both sides stretched their legs, the feeling of being dominated by Lin Dong came again in an instant!

It seems that the two years in Europe did not make that guy dull...

Of course, he is no longer the guy who would be broken by the opponent in the Western Conference Finals two years ago.

Facing the fear of being dominated by Lin Dong, Kobe Bryant's heart and eyes were burning with excitement.

Familiar feeling, different state of mind!

When Kobe saw the so-called fourth level in the past two years, he had already realized that he could not surpass Lin Dong in terms of technology.

In this world, there is only one fourth level who can completely control the court, and that is the ultimate winner!

If you can't beat him, you can't become the fourth level, but if you can't become the fourth level, you can't beat him.

This is a paradox for individuals, but if it is placed on the group, it can break this paradox!

The victory of the team is also a victory, and if you want to beat this guy, as the most important part of this team, you have to create enough trouble for him, such as enough consumption.

That means strong confrontation and the round-robin battle in Lao K's tactics!

Only by sticking to the opponent and making Lin Dong spend enough physical strength for every action can he be exhausted before the key decisive victory in the fourth quarter.

Make him no longer so brave and no longer so strong.

So although he is a shooting guard, Kobe Bryant always likes to rush to the most intense place in the inside line in the past two years. This has trained him to have a strong confrontation ability. I dare not say that he can fight against those tough heavy centers, but he has no problem fighting with most of the forwards in the NBA.

On the other hand, Lin Dong, although the physical confrontation in the European League is brutal, it lacks skills, which makes it difficult for people in the European League to entangle Lin Dong.

If you can't entangle him, what confrontation can you talk about?

In two years, Lin Dong has indeed improved the overall basketball of Longguo a lot, but correspondingly, he lacks the world's top basketball confrontation. Even if he can still maintain his previous ball sense, he can't make much progress in confrontation. This can actually be seen from Lin Dong's games in the past two years.

God is always fair. If you gain something, you must give up something. If you choose to cultivate a stronger team, you will inevitably weaken his personal ability in some aspects. This is inevitable.

Now!

Kobe's eyes were like torches at this time. Although he didn't get the position, his entire left shoulder was directly against Lin Dong, trying to force him away, or at least to deform Lin Dong's movements. The first ball must be effective!

As soon as the two bodies touched, Kobe's eyes lit up.

Although he was 201 cm tall, his weight of 99 kg did not increase at all compared to when he was in the NBA.

Although Kobe's original height of 198 cm did not change, his weight of 96 kg has increased to 100 kg.

Two years of crazy training allowed him to increase 4 kg while maintaining his original coordination and athletic ability. In the past two years, he focused on confronting various NBA forwards, which also made his strength and confrontation a step higher.

Kobe could clearly feel that the opponent's originally strong physical fitness seemed to become "soft" under his squeeze at this time, no longer as strong and hard as in the Western Conference Finals, nor as stable as before.

Lin Dong's movements were indeed slightly deformed, but with an extremely clever "cross-legged" move, Kobe's right leg, which was about to break through, was pinned back.

As expected, he was still the basketball god with invincible skills... However, his strength could really beat him!

While Kobe was certain in his heart, he also woke up to his full spirit.

After seeing the scenery of the fourth level, his reading of the court and his opponents was no longer at the same level as before.

Don't be impatient at this time!

The victory of strength is certainly the key to confrontation and consumption, but it does not mean that you can eat the opponent alive.

After all, the opponent is Lin Dong, the basketball god who has mastered the most powerful skills in the world.

He is too flexible. If you rely on your strength to force yourself to squeeze in and consume, the result is likely to be drilled by the opponent with softness, which will lead to the overall collapse of the defense line!

When faced with this situation, ordinary top masters may think about playing to their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses, and defending around their strengths as a support point;

But for Kobe, who has seen the fourth level and knows Lin Dong very well, he is too clear about the more detailed measurements.

Don't try to use your long board to kill the opponent, because the opponent has more long boards than you! Forcibly using the long board to hit the opponent will only allow the opponent to use more long boards to attack your weaknesses, making you lose sight of one thing while focusing on another.

The only thing you should do is to use your long board as a supplementary defense, so that you can easily consume and get the most practical effect.

Bang!

Kobe's mind raced, and Lin Dong had already caught the ball.

Kobe did not force his whole body weight to press on Lin Dong, but chose to take a half-step sideways to defend.

His body leaned to the right, and his center of gravity also leaned to the right, but his left hand was directly pressed on Lin Dong's waist.

Use strength to block Lin Dong's left breakthrough, and use the center of gravity and focus to block his right breakthrough. Only in this way can it be foolproof, so that Lin Dong can't get rid of himself, and in the continuous defense and pulling, let Lin Dong fall into a situation of being consumed!

Come on!

Kobe's eyes were like lightning at this time, and his whole body was ready to go. He looked forward to seeing what amazing breakthroughs this basketball god in his heart could make that were beyond his expectations.

In fact, it was not just Kobe, but everyone on the US team was involuntarily attracted by Lin Dong and Kobe.

With Lin Dong's usual rhythm in the Supersonics, he often took the lead in attacking the two balls at the beginning of the game. This was not only to boost morale with a high success rate, but also to drive his teammates into the game quickly. Kobe, who was selected for both the offensive and defensive first team last year and lost to Sakuragi Hanamichi by only one vote and missed the DPOY, set up a perfect defensive formation at this time.

In addition to Sakuragi Hanamichi, Kobe is undoubtedly the strongest defensive player in the league, while Lin Dong is recognized as the strongest attacker in the world.

The strongest spear against the strongest shield, who will be better?

No one will not be attracted by this scene. All the American team members on the court, even those who were running, could not help but look over here. The coaching team on the sidelines, the audience in the stands, the commentators in the live broadcast room, and even the fans sitting in front of the TV all over the world, their thoughts and attention at this moment are probably exactly the same.

But to everyone's surprise, the next second... Kobe's defensive posture had just been set, but Lin Dong actually passed the ball directly to the front court.

Lin Dong doesn't play the first attack?

Kobe was stunned, and so were the other American players on the court.

Not only Americans, but the whole world was obviously too surprised.

Did the God of Basketball get scared? Facing his former defeated opponent?

Before everyone could think about it, a ground pass was seen, and the ball was already near the front three-point line, and a young player from Dragon Country followed at lightning speed.

It was the opponent's point guard!

Kidd's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

Although he was attracted by Kobe and Lin Dong's offense and defense just now, it did not mean that he would let his defensive target drive straight in.

Kidd was near the three-point line, and he immediately blocked the kid, and his eyes had already been fixed on the small point guard.

The American team had already done a very detailed investigation of everyone in this Dragon Country team. Old K has put all his thoughts on this in the past two years, just to avenge the Nike Summit, and these materials are obviously already familiar to every player in the American team.
