Chapter 232

"clatter!"

Just as Zhang Jianing reached out to catch the ball, a long arm flashed in front of him and broke the ball.

Liu Tianyu was extremely fast. After the steal, he made a fast break. Before the second player could react, he had already scored the ball.

"Where did he come from?"

Liu Tianyu cannot be defined by a traditional power forward. His speed, his reaction, his skills and even his handsomeness are completely inconsistent with his status as a power forward.

"Mu Chenfeng is right, this game is not easy to play." Liu Tianyu's performance made Zhang Jianing very concerned, no wonder he was rarely restricted in the game, but the power forward's body has the skills of a small forward, it's not that he can't be restricted, but there is no way to restrict it.

The second offense is still controlled by Zhang Jianing, and his target is everyone except Liu Tianyu.

Zhang Jianing also had an attack that was impossible to guard against. He almost completed the first attack in a crushing manner. His opponent was like a bubble in the face of absolute strength, vulnerable to a single blow.

The reason why the No. [-] Middle School became a strong team after Liu Tianyu's return is largely because the No. [-] Middle School has acquired its own core. The previous No. [-] Middle School played haphazardly because they did not have an excellent offensive organizer. Liu Tianyu's joining just made up for this. He used his height advantage to occupy the most unique passing vision, and his passing was difficult to be disturbed.

Liu Tianyu's passing speed is not fast, but it can keep the defender out of reach, and he can pass the ball to his teammates in the most comfortable state.

"This pass is so comfortable. If it is given to me, I will definitely make it." Fu Di's eyes lit up when he saw Liu Tianyu's pass. Only a real pitcher can see how comfortable the pass is.

After receiving the ball, the teammate made a shot, which felt extremely silky, and the basketball went into the basket.

Seventh took the lead again.

Zhang Jianing led his team to force the half-court, and the Seventh Middle School used "23 zone defense" to meet them, a defensive tactic specially aimed at Zhang Jianing's breakthrough.

"The No.[-] High School's reaction is so fast." Li Yao said in surprise, they only allowed Zhang Jianing to break through for one round, and immediately replaced the previous man-marking with the zone defense, so that as long as Zhang Jianing entered the penalty area, the No. [-] High School could guarantee that two people would stop him.

"But, can Zhang Jianing be restrained in this way? That guy has been practicing outside shooting at noon." Mu Chenfeng said slowly. He thought Zhang Jianing was just practicing casually, but now it seems that the extra practice at noon is right.

Zhang Jianing did not rush, but looked for opportunities on the outside, taking advantage of the defender's inattentiveness, quickly shot, hit the bull's-eye, and took away the three-pointer.

It can be seen that Zhang Jianing has long guessed that the opponent will make arrangements for his breakthrough, so he specially carried out outside shooting practice at noon, the purpose is to score goals even when the opponent restricts his breakthrough.

"Is this considered grinding your guns before the battle?"

"Forget it, haha."

Zhang Jianing scored all the points of the second team alone. This is the regular start of the second game, and Zhang Jianing, who is blooming inside and outside, has brought a great test to the defense of No. [-] Middle School.

The outside basket can be said to be the biggest nemesis of the "zone defense". Since the formation of the zone defense is inwardly contracted, the focus of defense is on the inside line, and the defense on the outside line should be slightly relaxed. But if the outside line feels good, then the zone defense will not attack itself.

Zhang Jianing was able to attack and shoot, which forced the No. [-] Middle School to make a choice when defending. Should it change tactics or continue to maintain the zone defense?
Soon, the No. [-] Middle School gave the answer. The zone defense strategy lasted only one round and returned to man-to-man defense.

"It's too hasty to change tactics in such a hurry after only one round," Feng Chuang said.

"If it were me, I would change it too." Qiu Fei and Mu Chenfeng had the same idea. Instead of betting that Zhang Jianing would not make a shot, they simply wouldn't let him shoot. The ability to hit a three-pointer on his first attempt is enough to show how good his hand is.

One-on-one, Zhang Jianing can beat any opponent.

The second outer team tried their best to tear apart the defense of the No. [-] Middle School, creating enough space for Zhang Jianing to end one-on-one. Only one center player was left inside, but the inside line was not a duel between centers, but Liu Tianyu was defending.

Zhang Jianing passed the defender without wasting too much effort. Just when he was about to get up to attack the basket, Liu Tianyu suddenly stopped him. This is the real reason why Liu Tianyu switched to the center forward. Even if his teammates were passed, he could still complete the defense.

The first confrontation between the two in this game came as scheduled and attracted much attention.

"Liu Tianyu, come on!"

"Prevent it!"

"That uncle, stay away from my home Tianyu."

All kinds of voices poured in from around the court and passed into the players' ears, making it difficult to stay focused.

At this moment, only Liu Tianyu and Zhang Jianing were not disturbed and focused on the game.

"Come on, senior." Liu Tianyu had already set up his defensive posture.

"You're pretty smart." Zhang Jianing laughed. It turned out that Liu Tianyu didn't forget to restrict the players behind him while defending himself. He used his position to get the second outer center stuck behind him and cut off his connection with Zhang Jianing. In this way, Zhang Jianing could not pass the ball and could only play by himself.

"Is it the right side?" According to Zhang Jianing's body orientation, Liu Tianyu preliminarily judged that Zhang Jianing would seem to break through to his right side, so he shifted his defense to the right at the same time.

"I was fooled." Mu Chenfeng said slowly, due to the shift of the defensive center of gravity, there was a big gap on Liu Tianyu's left side. With Zhang Jianing's IQ, he would not let this opportunity pass by.

Zhang Jiatian, who was originally breaking through to the right, suddenly slammed on the brake with his right foot, and used the force of the rebound to send himself to the other side. Liu Tianyu wanted to turn around, but the inertia of his body prevented him from moving, so he could only watch Zhang Jianing score a low-handed layup.

"This is." Mu Chenfeng was stunned, "Mi Zongbu!"

Lost step is a very superb offensive skill, with the characteristics of fast direction change and concealed movements. It is very difficult for opponents to guard against it when used. It is very common in professional games.

What made Mi Zongbu famous all over the world is the famous NBA star Flash: Dwyane Wade, and now his son Bruce Wade has inherited his unique skill, and is showing off his power in the NBA arena on the far side of the ocean.

Such a superb lost step is extremely rare in the high school league, and only Zhang Jianing can use this move so superbly.

"If you want to guard against me, you should be tender." Zhang Jianing shook his head helplessly.

However, being able to force Zhang Jianing to use the lost step is also a recognition of Liu Tianyu's defense.
