Chapter 185 Another Win

After the start of the second quarter, the Hurricanes really launched a fierce counterattack. After adjustments to their main players, their touch came back again, and they hit three-pointers frequently, quickly overtaking the score.

But Lu Ziqiu was not in a hurry at all, and still ordered the team members to dig their inside lines desperately, until Yuan Jun was replaced by a taller inside line. In this way, Lu Ziqiu changed to attack the two flanks again, using the breakthrough abilities of Han Bin and Luo Peng, and began to attack frequently. Pick-and-roll cover, continue to attack their inside.

In terms of defense, Lu Ziqiu switched to a five-small lineup and began to press the whole court because the opponent was on the tall inside line. Yuan Jun tried his best, but he was still passive. At the end of the first half, the Wolves pulled the lead. Arrived at 8 points.

In the second half of the game, Yuan Jun simply stopped caring about how Lu Ziqiu played. In this way, the running and bombing tactics were brought into full play.

Seeing that the players on the court were playing in a hurry, Lu Ziqiu called a timeout and told them not to worry, and told them to just dig inside.

After returning to the field, the Wolves players played more resolutely. After halftime, they hardly passed the outside line, and directly passed the ball to Lan Feng, who fell to the low post.

Brian and Rozier resolutely pinched, Lan Feng smiled, turned around and threw the ball to the basket, Luo Mang took a run-up and soared into the sky, catching the ball in the air and dunking into the basket.

Luo Chen in the commentary couldn't help sighing: "This is the first time in history that our team's inside line has such a big advantage."

Caesar also couldn't help admiring: "That's right, from this game we can see that our insiders are actually quite capable."

"But the opponent's outside line is too accurate. If we continue to play like this, it will be difficult for us to expand our lead."

"It is true, but after entering the rotation lineup, I believe our players can expand their advantages."

Hurricanes attack and continue to switch defenses infinitely. Rozier catches the ball in the middle circle and jumps up to make a mid-range shot.

Luo Mang jumped up high, and interfered.

Rozier was taken aback, and hurriedly increased the arc of his shot, and the ball flew past Luo Mang's fingers.

"Rebound!" Luo Mang roared after landing, and quickly rushed to the basket.

"Mine." Lan Feng tried his best to block Brian behind him, jumped up and confiscated the ball that hit the frame.

"Good shot." Lin Sen applauded, and quickly went to respond.

Lan Feng looked disdainfully at Brian, who was in a panic, and passed the ball to Lin Sen casually.

Brian returned to the defense with a gloomy face. Just now when he was fighting for the position, he got an elbow in the chest. If he hadn't been hit by the elbow, he would have the confidence to win that offensive rebound.

Lin Sen crossed the half court unhurriedly. After picking and rolling with Han Bin, he found a good opportunity to pass the ball, and hit the ground to pass the ball to Lu Qian who was out of position.

Lu Qian received the ball, laughed and used his big butt to push Barnt away, then turned around, easily hit the board into the basket, and scored two more points.

"Boy, don't waste your physical energy. With your small body, do you want to be able to stand up to brother?"

Barnt frowned, turned around and left, not because he didn't dare to fight back, but because the coach refused to let him. He also understood what the coach was worried about. The current team's ranking situation is good, and there is no need to compete with the Wolves. Team dispute.

After the defensive strength increased, the Hurricane's physical energy was consumed rapidly, and the offensive accuracy was greatly reduced. Yuan Jun had to let the players strengthen their breakthroughs, and don't always float outside to shoot.

On the other hand, Lu Ziqiu replaced COSCO's stable Lu Wei and Luo Peng, and removed Lan Feng and Han Bin.

In this way, Luo Mang played at position 5, while Lu Wei moved to position 4. The offense was still handed over to Lu Wei and Lu Qian sitting back to play, and when defending, they began to switch defenses infinitely.

The Hurricanes were beaten without temper, and by the end of the third quarter, the score had stretched to 10 points.

As soon as the fourth quarter came on the field, Lu Ziqiu sent Gao Jun and Lan Feng to attack the inside, while Hurricane's substitute had no sense of touch and was beaten helplessly.

So far, the game has been one-sided.

The audience sang and danced enthusiastically, wave after wave of people.

Li Minghui in the stands couldn't help but praised: "Brother Lu is really amazing, the team has changed a lot since he came back."

Lin Qian pursed her lips and smiled, and looked softly at Lu Ziqiu who was sitting on the coach's bench talking and laughing happily.

Diana proudly patted Li Minghui on the shoulder, "Are you still worried now? I said earlier that as long as he comes back, the team will definitely be able to make the playoffs. You didn't believe it at the time."

Li Minghui scratched his head in embarrassment, "Aren't I worried about the team?"

"So it proves that you don't know much about basketball yet."

Li Minghui choked and was speechless, but he was slandering in his heart: You are blindly worshiping.

Xia Kexin began to count the results. If they win this match, their record will reach 21 wins and 27 losses, and there are still five wins away from the eighth-ranked team. With this situation, they should have a chance to squeeze again. Into the top eight.

But if it is No.8, it will be only one round against Huaxia. It seems that at least it is necessary to reach No.7, but it is seven games away from the seventh victory, and there are still 34 games left in the schedule In the game, it is too difficult to catch up.

Thinking of this, the joy of winning suddenly disappeared.

Seeing her frowning face, Lu Ziqiu couldn't help being a little surprised, "What's wrong with you?"

Xia Kexin was afraid that his enthusiasm for leading the team would be affected, so he didn't dare to say, "It's nothing."

Lu Ziqiu glanced at the notebook in her hand, grabbed it, and immediately understood, "Are you worried about the team's ranking?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, Xia Kexin can't open her eyes and talk nonsense, "Aren't you worried?"

"What is there to worry about? It doesn't matter where you play. For me, if I can't win the championship, I will fail in the first few rounds. But for the players, it can boost their confidence."

"Is that why you are determined to take them to the playoffs?"

"Yes."

During the conversation, the final whistle sounded, and the score was fixed at 108:96. The Wolves played normally and resolutely inside, and they just won the victory.

Lu Ziqiu got up and walked towards Yuan Jun, and the two shook hands again.

"I lost this game, but next time we meet, it won't be so easy." Yuan Jun still refused to accept, as long as the team has a better insider, he will not lose this game.

Lu Ziqiu sighed secretly, and persuaded again: "If you still insist on running and bombing, it is really difficult to go far."

Yuan Jun was stubborn and refused to listen to persuasion.

Lu Ziqiu didn't say any more, the two sides shook hands again and went back.

Yang Xiaojing rushed over to interview immediately, asked a few words and signaled him to leave.

Lu Ziqiu understood her kindness, so he signaled George to deal with it, and then signaled Lu Wei to take the players to the ring to thank the audience.

The players enjoy this kind of pretentious thing the most, because they can sign for others again.

Different from the victory in the previous game, after this victory, the board of directors of the Wolves team was very excited. After communicating with Xia Hongfei overnight, they decided to hold a dinner to reward the team tomorrow night.

Xia Hongfei notified Xia Kexin in time, and Xia Kexin told Lu Ziqiu about it.

With such a good opportunity to clear the gap with the board of directors, Lu Ziqiu naturally would not refuse, "No problem, but it can't be too late, we have to catch a plane the day after tomorrow."

Xia Kexin was overjoyed and hurriedly called her father back.
