Lithuanian coach Kestudis Comzula frowned. The progress of the game was much different from his previous expectations. Generally speaking, NBA players need a little process to adapt to the FIBA ​​system, especially for American players.

The reason why the United States can still win the championship in this system is because the individuals of the entire team are very strong, which means that they only need to use their strength to crush them.

However, for NBA players from other countries, it may not be so easy for them to integrate into their respective national teams. Although they are still stronger, it is difficult to use one person's strength to influence the game.

However, Zhou Mubai did not have this kind of trouble. He was in the Chinese team's system. The key point is that this style of playing is not like the previous style of playing of the Chinese team, but a bit like the NBA Knicks' style of playing.

The Chinese team used the standard method of center-for-center to break the joint defense, but in the core, it broke through Lithuania's joint defense with Zhou Mubai's personal ability, allowing the Chinese team's outside line to blossom in full. Lithuania's joint defense has been cracked.

Changes must be made. If the pace of defense continues to be defended, the gap will not only not narrow, but will become larger and larger.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Chinese team replaced Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, and Sun Yue. They needed a rest. Zhou Mubai brought Wang Shipeng, Liu Wei, Wang Shipeng, Su Wei and Zhou Peng to the audience. The lineup was a bit small, but the speed became faster.

After the game started, Liu Wei held the ball. He keenly discovered that Lithuania had changed its style of play, and the defense became a man-to-peer. Liu Wei had difficulty passing the ball through the frontcourt. He immediately looked for Zhou Mubai because he knew very well that Zhou Mubai was the best choice to break the man-to-peer defense.

Zhou Mubai stuck Mansta to catch the ball, raised his hand to pull it away, and then signaled Su Wei to come up to pick-and-roll. At this time, Su Wei's speed was not too slow. He quickly stepped forward to help Zhou Mubai block it. Although he did not block Yan Shi, he ran to the basket as soon as possible. This was Zhou Mubai's order before the game - whether he blocked it or not, he had to go to the basket!

Zhou Mubai used such a not-so-solid pick-and-roll to cross half of his shoulder, which was enough. Zhou Mubai tried a little harder and completely broke through. Lithuanian substitute center Martinas quickly made up. Su Wei, who was walking down at the basket, immediately attracted the attention of everyone in Lithuania.

Zhou Mubai made the ball - he chose not Su Wei who was going down, but Liu Wei who ran down from the three-point line to squat the bottom corner!

Liu Wei's three-pointer has been completely empty, and he took a steadily - a three-pointer hit!

Deng Huade slapped his thighs suddenly - it was amazing!

Although Su Wei did not block this attack with pick-and-roll and was dismantled badly, under Zhou Mubai's exquisite operation, Liu Wei found a chance to take a three-pointer calmly.

The Chinese team's back line is not that they can't shoot three-pointers, they are all professional players. Even though their levels are different, they are under high-intensity defense and under absolute open positions. Their three-pointers are worthy of their professional players.

Coach Comzura immediately felt something was wrong.

The threat of Zhou Mubai's point is too great. If Zhou Mubai cannot be limited, then Lithuania's defense will not work. This is fatal to Lithuania because they have a limit on offense. Under the defense of the Chinese team, their offense has already been considered to be a super-level performance, but the Chinese team's higher offense efficiency makes their offense pale in comparison.

He had never quite understood why the Knicks could win the championship without everyone's optimism. In his eyes, whether it was the lineup before or after the transaction, the Lakers were thin and lacking in talent compared to the Celtics, but the Knicks won the championship was the Knicks.

Now he finally understood a little. Zhou Mubai's ability to control the game is too strong. Although his teammates are not very capable, he can let his teammates exert all their energy, such as Wang Shipeng and Wang Zhizhi, who can give them the opportunity to create a bottom corner three-pointer.

Su Wei, a center with slow movements, is not very good at pick-and-roll, but Zhou Mubai can use this clumsy pick-and-roll to create a perfect bottom corner three-pointer opportunity.

There is also Yi Jianlian, an inside player who is not particularly outstanding in coach Comzura, but has unique effects under Zhou Mubai's system.

Yi Jianlian's three-pointer was not very stable, but he had a good mid-range and strong ability to hit the basket, which was also exploited by Zhou Mubai.

Zhou Mubai asked Yi Jianlian to hold the ball with the ball. If Lithuania did not come forward to defend, Yi Jianlian's mid-range distance from the free throw line would make them feel pain. After Yi Jianlian passed the ball, he hit the rebound. In the first quarter, Yi Jianlian hit the basket and got three frontcourt boards, causing them great trouble.

The Chinese team, who can only be considered mediocre internationally, performed their own duties under the leadership of Zhou Mubai and made very outstanding offenses. This driving ability is really beyond the expectations of Coach Comzura.

Comzula thought to himself: "Fortunately, we did not meet China in the first round, otherwise they would definitely cause us a lot of trouble."

Although Comzura is a little afraid, he does not think that the Chinese team can win the game, at most it is to cause some trouble for them. He is very confident in the players. Although the Chinese team can still maintain the lead now, as the game progresses, physical strength, team and will will become the decisive factors that determine the outcome of the game. At this point, Coach Comzura is full of confidence in his team.

Before this, he was at a disadvantage in the duel with the strong Spanish teams, but in the end he relied on the overall game to win. This is their confidence and the reason why they can become a basketball powerhouse.

Lithuania has never relied on talent, but on this kind of discipline that has penetrated into the bones. They have not had many NBA players in the past years, but they are firmly ranked among the top ten in the world's basketball powerhouses, and they are obtained through these.

Sure enough, in the second half of the second quarter, as Lithuania's strength increased, Liu Wei and others' three-point shooting rate gradually decreased, and Deng Huade replaced Wang Zhizhi, but he soon became inaccurate.

The situation has gradually shifted towards Lithuania, and the smile on Coach Komzula's face has gradually emerged.

"Basketball is a game of five people after all, and no matter how strong a person is, he cannot reverse the trend. Next, it is time for us young men to establish our confidence."

Deng Huade frowned, and indeed a serious situation came. He carefully studied Lithuania. The style of this team is tenacity. Once the opponent and they are in a war of attrition, they can always seize the opportunity to win the game.
