Center first

Chapter 47
The number on the scoreboard has changed to 4:0.

Oregon succeeded in two consecutive offenses. Hansbrook failed to achieve his wish on both the offensive and defensive ends. Although Williams on the sidelines did not express anything, he also felt that the Eastern boy was indeed his most troublesome problem.Williams made a gesture to Hansbrook on the field, which was the contact method they had established before, and he believed that his core knew how to deal with it.

In the next round of defense, Lin Yi sensed the opponent's change, and Hansbrook did not choose to enter the inside to fight with himself again.Hansbrook began to take advantage of the opportunity to compete with Lin Yi for a position in the interior, and directly created a breakthrough opportunity for his striker Ellington.

Ellington may be the most powerful propeller in North Carolina. His crazy impact ability and shooting ability from beyond the three-point line have caused many people, including Duke, to suffer. This is why Lewis The most worrying point.Because the ability of the small forward on his own side is not very outstanding, he will inevitably be at a disadvantage in the matchup, which will involve a large part of Lin Yi's defensive energy.

Lewis is also lamenting the quickness of the opponent's changes, and he will not let his mistakes repeat at all. This is the background and adaptability of a strong team, and the handling ability on the spot is undoubtedly evident.

Lin Yi, who was entangled by Hansbrook, didn't keep up with the footsteps of the defense, and could only watch Ellington break through the outside defense and go directly to the basket with a beautiful one-handed dunk.

After the hot-tempered Ellington succeeded in dunking, he showed Lin Yibi a thumbs up pointing down. Lin Yi just shook his head and said as he watched the opponent's arrogant demonstration.

"If you dare to come one-on-one, I will admit that I am not as good as you. I can do better than you when dunking an unguarded basket. I really need to use dunks to enhance my confidence because I am short."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he ignored Ellington and ran past the opponent. When passing by, he deliberately lowered his head to look at Ellington, and compared his opponent's height with his hands behind his back, so he shook his head regretfully. Shaking his head and running away.

His actions directly caused a burst of laughter from the audience. Ellington seemed to be humiliating himself, and could only stare fiercely at Lin Yi running away.

Lewis and old Chuck watched Lin Yi's performance with a smile on the sidelines. The two old men nodded in satisfaction, not letting go of any chance to drive people crazy. Only by making the other party lose their minds can they find loopholes.

"This little guy knows how to stimulate the opponent's nerves more and more. Old Chuck, you are really a good apprentice. You have the potential to become a master of psychological warfare." Lewis patted Old Chuck on the shoulder and said.

"What good can we learn from Rodman and those guys? During the last training, those guys even taught him to use R&B jingles. I don't know if this kid has learned it yet." Old Chuck smiled triumphantly.

Sweat, the surrounding substitute players heard the conversation between the two old men, and a drop of sweat dripped from their heads. What kind of meritorious coaches are these?

Lin Yi was not in the mood to be as relaxed as old Chuck and Lewis. In this attack, he not only had to face Hansbrook's top defense, but also Ellington's pinch defense against him.Lin Yi directly hit the ground and passed the ball to his outside shooting guard Wayman at the moment when the opponent's defense came up, but Wayman who had just received the ball was also directly blocked by Ty Lawson's sight of the shot, helpless Under Wayman can only pass the ball again.In this way, the overall team shape of North Carolina has returned to the rhythm of man-to-man defense again, and Lin Yi's passing function from the inside to the outside did not have the desired effect.

Lewis and old Chuck also began to notice this change in the other side. It seems that the head coach of the other side has already planned to double-team Lin Yi from the very beginning, and will not give him too many opportunities to display.

This is the same as the tactics they set up, which is to strangle the opponent's strongest point, starting from the inside to make a fuss.Moreover, the opposing team is not afraid of fighting to the death at all. North Carolina's strong bench is deep enough to submerge Oregon's thin personnel reserve. The only thing they can rely on now is Lin Yi's method to break the opponent's double-team.

The two issues that a good center always has to face are going forward and double-teaming. Most of the opponents Lin Yi has encountered now are because they don't know Lin Yi deeply enough, so they all adopt one-on-one defense.Now Lin Yi is facing a mature team's double-team defense against him for the first time. This is a key battle for his growth. Lewis and old Chuck both know the truth of this.

Lin Yi's two consecutive requests for the ball were unsuccessful in singles because of Ellington's double-team. He could only choose to pass the ball out to create open space on the outside. Lin passed the ball out once or twice, but he didn't find a good shot from the outside.

When the time was close to 35 seconds, McNeese could only barely take a shot, but he failed to make a shot. Hansbrook firmly blocked Lin Yi's movement in North Carolina's two interiors, and the other interior directly got a rebound. This time's attack on Lin Yi exhausted all his strength but failed.

Such a change made Lin Yi fall into a passive situation. The opponent's two inside lines defended him one at the top and one at the side, and there was an outside line in front of him who double-teamed him at any time to interfere.Lin Yi was surrounded by a pack of wolves, surrounded by enemies.

In the next two attacks, Lin Yi fell into the situation of being attacked from the front and back. The space on the weak side of the opponent's defense was blocked by the defender who directly blocked the passing angle. The defender who comes over and is ready to steal the ball at any time.For a while, it became very difficult for Lin Yi to even pass the ball. It was the first time he was restricted by this level of double-teaming and couldn't move an inch.

"Worthy of being the strongest team, the tactical execution ability of the team is astonishingly consistent, and the defensive speed is too fast, it is simply running without hesitation." Old Chuck looked at the situation on the field and said.

"I'm thinking about whether to pause for a while and let Lin Yi think about what to do. I think he's in a bad situation in the paint now." Lewis looked at Lin Yi who was in trouble on the field and said to old Chuck.

"Let this child learn to face difficulties alone. It is not a good thing for someone to support him all the way. Hard work is a necessary experience for a person to grow up. We must believe that he can find a way to solve it. After all, this is not the NBA. There is no A flawless defense system." Old Chuck said to Lewis in relief, but his eyes never left the changes on the court for a moment, although he said he was not in a hurry, he was still worried about Lin Yi's situation.

As soon as Lin started double-teaming from the opponent, he was looking for the opponent's loopholes, but the opponent spared no effort to run on the periphery and could easily make up for the vacancy that was torn from the outside line.Moreover, Hansbrook's top defense made it difficult for Lin Yi to pass the ball calmly, which often caused the phenomenon that the ball could not get out when the opportunity came out.

"Since you can't pass it out, then go in some more. If you can make up for the gap in the outside line, then I will fight for the inside blockade area between the two of you!" Lin looked at the situation on the outside and gave up the pass directly. The idea of ​​​​going the ball out, so that your teammates can run less.

Lin Yi hinted at McNeese with his eyes, and directly promoted to a high position.Ty Lawson saw that as soon as Lin moved to the high position, he followed McNeese and did not let him go. Hansbrook followed closely and left the three-second zone.

Waiting for you out of the three-second zone!The pick-and-roll between Lin Yi and McNeese passed by, and the ball was directly handed over to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi held the ball with one hand, and directly cut in from Hansbrook's left side. Since McNeese and Lin Yi handed over the ball at the moment when they intersected, a short time difference delayed Hansbrook's judgment.

Stepping into the three-second zone and facing the opponent's defending center forward, Lin Yi's body moved horizontally from between the two, forcing a breakthrough to force a passage through the gap between the two who were about to encircle.Both of them failed to stop Lin Yi from rushing into the restricted area, but collided with each other because of the other's appearance.

Facing the basket, Lin Yi rose into the air, his body was tense like a bow, and he smashed the basketball in with both hands. Even the basket seemed to be unstable due to his weight.

After landing, Lin Yi looked up to the sky and roared like a roaring lion under the basket.
