NBA: I really just want to be a second-in-command

Chapter 3 [The Dignity of the Substitute]

Lu Yusheng thought his chance had come, so he stood up eagerly.

Unexpectedly, the head coach Billy Donovan glanced at him, but then shifted his gaze to his teammate Martin beside him.

"Martin, you go."

Lu Yusheng: ...

I thought I had a chance to play, but I didn't expect that Coach Donovan still didn't trust him very much.

Of course, he also understands the importance of this game, both to the school and to the coach.

That's right, the more critical the game, the less the coach can trust a yellow-skinned point guard.

Lu Yusheng could only sit back on the bench quietly and awkwardly.

The game continues!

University of Florida serves.

As a substitute No. 2, Martin is physically strong, but his skills are rough, especially his dribbling skills, which are very urgent.

The other party had obviously done their homework long ago and was very aware of this.

From the moment Martin received the ball, he was closely defended by the opponent's point guard!

For a while, Martin had difficulty dribbling the ball, so he could only rely on his strong body to protect the ball forcibly.

Sure enough, Martin barely dribbled the ball past halftime in the opponent's half, and the ball was taken away by the opponent's defender Alfred at his opportunity!
This kind of fast break after a steal is too late for any defense.

Alfred scored two points with an easy layup.

University of Florida serves again.

Martin gritted his teeth, this time he must not be robbed again!
He chose to dribble with his back, facing Alfred with his butt, and pushed forward with difficulty.

But this way of dribbling, although it is safer to face one-on-one defense, but the problem is that because you are on the back, once someone from the side attacks and assists in the defense, it is difficult for you to observe it in the first place!
The UCLA players naturally understood that watching Martin's lame dribble, someone had already stepped up to help defend!

Coaches and teammates on the sidelines yelled at Martin, "Be careful of stealing the ball!"

When Martin heard it, he turned back to look at Alfred for the first time. The moment he turned his head, the ball was stolen by Allen Afaro who came up to help defend on the other side!
Another easy two points!
UCLA defended the next round and scored a three-pointer while attacking!

The score reached 50 in an instant!
The UCLA players were suppressed for a whole half, and now, they suddenly smelled the breath of victory, and all of them became emotionally high!
Their coach roared passionately off the court, "Come on guys! That's it! They can't even dribble past half court now! The victory belongs to you, lads!"

The voices of fans supporting UCLA on the spot are also obviously louder!

Now head coach Donovan finally couldn't sit still, and went straight to Lu Yusheng.

"Pause, substitute, Lu Yusheng, get ready to play."

Lu Yusheng hurriedly got up!

He never expected that after sitting on the bench for almost a season, he got the chance to play in the most crucial final!

"Dribble the ball safely across the half court and hand it over to your teammates. This is your task." Coach Donovan urged.

Still don't trust.

So he was given the simplest task, just dribble across half court.

Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you, just watch it.See how I use 66's performance to shatter your [-] glasses!
