Chapter 292 The Strength Gap Of The Substitute Lineup
beep--
Goal in, whistle blows.
The first quarter is over.
The score was 20:17.
The Zhenzhong school team leads by 3 points.
Under the basket, Dewey, a reporter from the China News Agency, clicked the shutter and took a series of photos.
He looked at Zhenzhong No. 3 who ran towards his teammates with a smile and gave them high-fives and hugs, and his heart was full of disbelief.
Since the start of the league, Lin Weirui can be said to be the most concerned player in the entire league.
His physical fitness is abnormally strong, his attitude on the field is positive and serious, his offensive methods are varied and diverse, and his overall awareness is top-notch.
Dewey didn't know how many surprises this newcomer who appeared suddenly this year could bring people?
As a sports reporter of the China News Agency, he was able to get in touch with many people in the industry.
He knew that there are already many top teams in domestic professional leagues, and they have started contacting Lin Weirui.
Moreover, many teams have even offered Lin Weirui unprecedented big contracts.
It's just outrageously exaggerated.
You know, Lin Weirui is only 17 years old this year, he is not yet an adult, and he has not even participated in a college league.
Those top professional league teams are already willing to offer a tempting contract for such a rookie?
This shows how popular Lin Weirui is today.
In Dewey's heart, a thought even began to grow: Will this young boy who was born out of nowhere grow into the pillar of the Longguo men's basketball team in the future?
He shook his head, everything was too far away.
On the other hand, the five members of the North Gate school team did not lose their fighting spirit because of Lin Weirui's steals, fast breaks, and dunks.
Captain Zhou Tianchen led the players off the field calmly and came to the side of head coach Mao Kai.
Mao Kai patted the shoulders of the team members one by one, and encouraged without blame:
"In the first quarter, you have done a good enough job."
"Continue to maintain the state and try to give them some color in the second quarter."
Mao Kai is not arrogant, but he has long been concerned about it.
Are you strong?
very strong.
But when Zhenzhong played against Hongyuan, Mao Kai had already seen Zhenzhong's flaws.
Mao Kai knew that with the strength of their team, it would be as difficult as heaven to gnaw at Zhenzhong.
But if you don't try everything, how will you know the final result?
He carefully watched the first quarter of the game from the sidelines, and his thinking was actually similar to that of the head coach of the Hongyuan team, Li Chunqiu.
Zhenzhong is raising troops by war.
They are using the North Gate school team as a sharpening stone to sharpen the players' ability to resist pressure and defend.
Many people in the basketball hall can see this.
How can the experienced Mao Kai not know?
Zhenzhong wants to use the North Gate as a sharpening stone, why doesn't Maokai have the same idea?
Everyone knows that the Beimen school team has strict discipline and is an iron-blooded army.
Their offensive strength is much inferior to their own defensive ability.
But this kind of inferiority is only compared to Hongyuan and Zhenzhong, which are very strong on the offensive end.
A league that develops healthily must be a league that learns from each other and improves each other.
In today's game, Mao Kai also wants to learn some offensive things from the actual combat and from Zhenzhong.
Therefore, Mao Kai made a bold decision when he was laying out the tactics in the second quarter during the break.
The starting five tigers, except for the captain Zhou Tianchen, the other four are off the court to rest.
Mao Kai decisively changed into a five-small lineup, intending to put more pressure on Zhenzhong on the offensive end while ensuring defense.
beep……
The referee's whistle blew.
The players of the two teams played one after another, and the second quarter was about to start.
Xu Jie was sitting in the stands. When he saw the formation of the North Gate school team, his expression froze, and he secretly thought that Zhenzhong might suffer.
In basketball games, usually at the beginning of the second quarter, both teams will replace a certain number of substitute players.
This is a very normal routine rotation. After all, everyone's physical strength is limited, and the main players also need to rest.
On Zhenzhong's side, Lin Lei also made personnel adjustments, replacing Lin Weirui, Wei Xiaotian, and Zhou Lu with substitutes Cui Qipeng, Sun Mingming, and Chen Hua.
Zhenzhong's lineup revolves around point guard Chen Hualai as the core offensive point of play, which Xu Jie has also experienced in daily training.
As a young player of the Zhenzhong school team, Chen Hua is very talented. No one in the team can compare with him except Lin Weirui for his speed on the basketball court.
But his flaws are equally obvious.
Before he joined the school team, all his energy was put on the offensive end, and his defensive ability was weak.
The field experience is not as mature as the starting point guard Wei Xiaotian.
Zhenzhong's lineup is much weaker than the starting lineup, both offensively and defensively.
What Xu Jie was worried about was that the young teenager couldn't handle the defense of the North Gate school team.
as expected.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Beimen school team took the lead in serving and attacking.
Point guard Miao Changyong dribbled the ball across the half court, facing Chenhua's defense, he tried it from outside the three-point line.
Everyone in the North Gate team has undergone rigorous military training.
Miao Changyong, who came off the bench, is much more accomplished on the defensive end than Zhenzhong's substitute players.
His trial directly saw that Chenhua's defensive pace was not rigorous enough, so he decisively chose to break through.
After passing Chenhua and facing Yue Zhanye who was filling in in time, Miao Changyong decisively passed the ball to captain Zhou Tianchen.
Because Yue Zhanye had to fill up to defend Miao Changyong, Zhou Tianchen had a momentary opportunity to open up.
After Zhou Tianchen received the ball, he strode directly into the basket, facing the center Mo Ming who was half a head taller than him, and decisively passed the ball to the small forward Sun Xiaofeng who ran out of the three-point line and had an open opportunity.
Sun Xiaofeng raised the knife and dropped it, and the basketball went into the net hollow.
Three points!
The North Gate school team tied the score at 20:20 at the beginning of the second quarter.
Seeing the changing situation on the court, Xu Jie nodded secretly.
In this round of offense just now, Beimen still played team basketball.
Whether it is a point guard, a shooting guard, or a small forward, there is no sticking to the ball.
They are always looking for the best shot opportunities to ensure the best offensive efficiency.
From Xu Jie's point of view, point guard Miao Changyong had already been able to choose CIC when he broke through Chenhua for the first time.
When Zhou Tianchen caught the ball for the second time and faced center Mo Ming, he could also choose to layup directly.
But precisely because of the strict discipline of the Beimen school team, they did not choose to force a shot, but gave the opportunity to attack to the small forward Sun Xiaofeng who ran out of space on the outside.
This round of offense was so seamless that no one could fault it.
But the breakthrough point is also Chenhua's lack of basic defensive skills.
Xu Jie told Lin Lei and the others.
The most frightening thing about the Beimen school team is not their defensive ability, but that in their 12-man roster, no matter which five players play, they can maintain the level of a strong team.
This is something that no other team in the league can do.
But Beimen did it.
It relies on militarized management and training.
But Xu Jie felt that such an opponent would be a good thing for Zhenzhong.
He has full confidence in his disciples Lin Weirui, Yue Zhanye and Zhou Lu.
But after all, a basketball game is a team game of five people. No matter how strong Lin Weirui and his team are, they still have time to rest.
How to ensure that the substitute lineup can withstand the pressure when the main players are off the field is also an area where the Zhenzhong school team needs to improve.
Three minutes before the second quarter, everything went as Xu Jie expected.
Zhenzhong's strength has declined due to the rotation of the substitute lineup.
But at the North Gate, due to the special nature of the team, they almost maintained the same strength as the first quarter.
Between the ups and downs, the Beimen school team gave Zhenzhong a head-on blow.
Within three minutes, while defending and attacking, he maintained a good touch on the offensive end and overtook the score in one fell swoop.
beep……
When Lin Lei called a timeout, the score on the court had reached 24:29!
The North Gate school team led by five points.
