"Hey guys!" This year is Miles' third season with the Bulldogs. He is the oldest among the five men in the second team and has automatically assumed the responsibility of communicating with teammates. "Although we are the substitute, we are not the fish that can be slaughtered. Let's cheer up and give them some colors?"

"Okay!" Li Rong, Dennis and Jones, who were newly joined, let out a roar at the same time. Only the substitute point guard Nick agreed to be weak, obviously did not take Mike's encouragement to heart.

It's not his fault. When he came to the team last year, he was trying to start, but later he lost in the competition with the current starting point guard Anthony Grifos. Although he is still conscientious in playing basketball, he has less motivation than a year ago.

"Nick!" Miles glared at him, obviously dissatisfied with his reaction, "Are you here on the court today with hunger? The volume is not as good as a girl!"

Nick immediately patted his chest and shouted, "No problem, beat them up."

His loud voice obviously attracted the attention of everyone on the opposite team. The power forward of the first team, Brandon Carlo, was the team's lively treasure, immediately raised his big butt to the second team: "You will only follow me in a while!"

Starting point guard Anthony also followed behind and started to cheer: "We don't need to take a shower after training today, because we won't sweat after playing this game."

The words of these two people caused a burst of laughter among the members of the team.

The coaching staff looked at the two gangs with some amusement and did not stop them.

Nick rolled his eyes and ignored them, looking at Miles and asked, "How should we fight?"

This training game is mainly for the purpose of examining the lineup, so neither side has arranged a coach, and the tactics on the court depend entirely on the players themselves.

Miles was a little hesitant. He didn't know enough about the three new teammates who joined the team.

The reason why he made a bold statement just now was just to encourage the three new teammates. He actually had no clear idea of ​​how to play this training game.

"Why do I give me some advice?" Li Rong stood up in time to resolve Mike's embarrassment.

Everyone can see his performance in the training camp during this period. The players even privately believe that this new Asian player this year is qualified to enter the starting lineup, so they did not despise him because he is a newcomer.

Seeing that the other four teammates were all focused on him, Li Rong continued: "Myers and Dennis changed positions on the defensive end. Dennis' figure is more suitable for defending the big guy Julian. The other positions are matched normally. How about this arrangement?"

Julian is the team's inside core. He poses a great threat to the basket after getting the ball at a low post. Although Miles is not at a loss in height when facing Longley, his weight and strength are much worse, so the best choice is to let Dennis, who has better strength, take the defense.

But since this, Dennis has faced great pressure, but Li Rong knows Dennis's personality very well. He is a guy who is not afraid of any challenges at all. Such an arrangement does not have any difficulties for him.

"No problem!" Sure enough, Dennis happily accepted the task of defending Julian. His target has always been in the NBA. If he doesn't even dare to accept tasks like defending Julian, how can he fight against the inside giants in the league in the future?

"On the offensive end, we should try our best to play fast. After getting the defensive rebounds, no matter who is, run quickly to the frontcourt, play more and change the attack, and try not to give them the opportunity to form a position to defend."

Li Rong's proposal was also a helpless move. The second team is not like the first team. After all, they have played together for at least a year and have a tacit understanding between each other. The five people in the second team have not yet gathered together to play a game. If they are dragged into the rhythm of the offensive position, the second team will definitely lose, so they can easily get the opportunity to score easily with the push speed as much as possible.

Moreover, although Julian has a great advantage in falling into the position, due to his movement speed, he is a weakness in defending fast offense. As long as he does not give him time to take the position, the second team will be equivalent to five against four in the fast break.

"What if I fall into the position?" Nick asked subconsciously. After all, he is the point guard of the second team and needs to undertake the tasks organized by the team.

"If we fall into the position, then we will try our best to find opportunities for misalignment." Li Rong replied slowly, "Who is the weakest part of the defense in the first team?"

"Anthony!" A name appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.

As the team's starting linebacker, Anthony Grifos is extremely fast, but he is only 1.8 meters tall and weighs only 65 kilograms. He is the smallest person in the team.

"That's right," Li Rong raised a faint smile on his lips, "We only have one tactic for positional battles. After changing the pick-and-roll, he forced Anthony to take advantage of the low post. Didn't he say he won't sweat after playing this game? Then let's help him sweat a little more!"

"beep."

Head coach Matthew did not give the players too much preparation time and quickly blew the whistle to start the game.

Anthony Grifos, the point guard on the first team, always felt that the five people in the second team looked at him with strange eyes, as if they were having some bad idea.

What if he doesn't matter, Anthony thought to himself, could these substitutes really make any waves? He doesn't believe it anyway.

Because it was not a formal game, both sides did not jump the ball, and the second team took the lead in serving the ball.

Nick controlled the ball steadily to the frontcourt, and Miles came up to cover him, and the others pulled all to the weak side, completely clearing this side.

Julian, the starting center on the first team, hesitated and chose to go forward to defend. He and substitute center Miles have been teammates for two years. He knew that he had a threatening mid-range shot. If he didn't follow up, Nick would definitely give the ball to Miles after the pick-and-roll and let him shoot.

Seeing that Julian had taken the bait, Nick broke through to the middle with Mike's cover without any haste.

At this time, Anthony, who was the main defense of Nick, was completely blocked by the center Miles of the second team, and Julian had to choose to go forward to switch to block Nick's breakthrough route.

Nick was blocked by Julian near the free throw line, but it doesn't matter, the tactical effect this time has been achieved.

The second team center Miles decisively approached the opponent's point guard Anthony, who was shorter than him, and the ball quickly passed to his hands.

Myers didn't think about it when he got the ball, but turned around and made a decisive shot with a 45-degree edge shot.

Anthony, who was defending him, had tried to stretch his arms to interfere, but the height difference between the two was too big, so this interference would not have much effect at all.

The ball hits the white paint frame on the rebound and then falls into the basket.

The second team hit the first goal of the game.

Looking back, the team began to organize the offense.

The first team's first offensive launch also came from the low post. After a series of passes, the team's defender Mike Green hurled the ball to Julian, who was facing Dennis' defense.

After Julian got the ball, he consciously wanted to test the strength of the team's newcomer and choose to attack at a low post.

He pushed Dennis behind him twice with his broad body, and was surprised to find that the other party had not retreated much. The new man's body felt like a solid cement stake.

Julian hesitated a little, looked around and began to subconsciously look for his old teammate Green.

But the yellow-skinned newcomer had appeared on his passing line at some point. He was like a hunter waiting for an opportunity. As long as Julian passed the ball out, he would immediately pull the trigger.

The timeout was about to be exceeded, Julian had no choice but to use his height to choose a long-distance hook.

The ball was obviously shorter, and the ball hit the outside edge of the basket and fell on Li Rong's head.

After Li Rong received the rebound, he did not pause at all, and threw the ball towards the frontcourt.

At this time, the two defenders of the second team were about to get off, and the one running in the front was the second team's point guard Nick.

When the ball flew over, he had already run within the frontcourt three-point line, and there was no one in front of him at this time.
Chapter completed!
