I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 73 Need to Add Vegetables! (ask for votes and support)
After a half-time break, UCLA originally hoped that the opponent's fiery state would cool down, and the focus and enthusiasm would also drop.

In fact, this is also a common problem among college teams and young players.

However, as soon as the second half started, they realized that they were wrong.

The enthusiasm of Memphis has not been compromised at all, especially the main player Rose, who played extremely aggressively and toughly, and it was simply a matter of fighting for the ball.

In the opening game, Memphis hit another 6:0 spurt.

First, Rose used a breakthrough to make Westbrook foul and made 2 of 2 free throws;
Immediately afterwards, CD Roberts received a pass from Rose in the bottom corner and hit a three-pointer;
Then, Dorsey grabbed an offensive rebound, was fouled by Love when making a tip-up, and made 2 of 1 free throws.

This is also Dorsey's third point of the game.

The score gap was widened to 30:47.

Memphis has almost locked up the victory.

This result was something no one expected before the game.

Everyone knows that Memphis is very strong, but they didn't expect it to be so strong. After playing a little more than half a game, they actually lead the seeded team in another division by 17 points!
UCLA was forced to call a timeout again. How the head coach scolded and reprimanded me, I just look at the side of the Memphis bench.

Dorsey is still in a hurry. Rose has more points and assists than Westbrook. No matter how good he plays, it is just icing on the cake. The key is that rebounds, steals, and blocked shots are rewarded with higher sp values!

"Bear, don't you just be busy attacking, what about rebounds, steals, and blocks?"

"I think so too, but defensive stats are not the same as offensive stats, they can't be met, you have to wait for the opportunity!"

"Don't wait, you haven't heard others say, you have to find the opportunity yourself?! You have to take the initiative!"

"It's not easy to do!"

"... Let's order!"

"!!!"

"Can I order it myself? I want to eat the Kung Pao Chicken, Hang Chili Beef Tenderloin, and Ground Three Fresh Food that you made for Mu Ziluo..."

"Okay, okay! Uncle, as long as your rebounds, steals, and blocks all surpass Westbrook, it's up to you!"

"I heard that there is a kind of rice in China called Manhan Quanxi..."

"puff……"

Fuck, what nonsense did I tell him when I had nothing to do!

Back on the court, Westbrook organized the offense, Rose's waist was lower, and his eyes widened.It is no longer blindly retreating, but constantly trying to reach out and grab the ball.

Westbrook wondered, how did the opponent's defensive aggression become stronger?Isn't he satisfied with leading by 17 points?

Terrible, insatiable aggressiveness, is this the legendary Mamba spirit?

However, Westbrook's ball-handling skills are still very strong. Although Rose kept harassing him, he still didn't lose the ball.But under the strong defense, Westbrook was unable to form a breakthrough.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Love stepped forward to meet him, Westbrook passed the ball, and then took advantage of the situation and quickly went down.

According to the routine of cooperation, Love should pass the ball immediately, just like the two-pass and one-hit-the-wall cooperation in football.

But as soon as Love got the ball, before he could pass it, Dorsey pounced on him like an octopus.

Clinging tightly to Le Fu, the two iron-like arms swung vigorously, covering all the lines for a while.

Le Fu hesitated for a moment, and fell into a double-team.

It turned out that Rose didn't go with Wei Shao, but chose to run over to double-team!

This move exceeded everyone's expectations.

Theoretically, such a defensive principle is unreasonable. With so many points ahead, honest man-to-man marking is the end. There is no need for gambling-style defense at all.

But this unexpected defensive choice caught Love by surprise.

In a panic, Love lost his grip and the ball was taken away by Rose.

Rose succeeded in stealing, dribbling the ball all the way forward, and dunking one-stop!

Received numerous cheers and applause.

This ball is also a portrayal of Rose's defense for the next period of time.His defensive style has completely changed, no longer playing steadily, but very aggressive.

For all kinds of steals or blocked shots, if you see an opportunity, you will even use a one-shot deal, regardless of your strength.

As for rebounding, not to mention, all kinds of flying and escaping, desperately rushing to grab rebounds.

From the point of view of the game, this style of play actually has mediocre effects. Even if it can grab a lot of balls, it is easy to be passed by the opponent and give the opponent a lot of opportunities.

But from a data point of view, it does make Rose's technical statistics look better. Rebounds and steals are all rising, only blocks have not yet been won.

More importantly, the audience enjoyed watching it!

They don't care about the success rate or the number of balls lost behind the gambling defense. They only cheer for the successful steals and strong rebounds, enjoying the pleasure brought by the visual feast.

Of course, professionals will take this defense very seriously, and they care more about the defensive efficiency value.

However, since Memphis is already far ahead, Rose's little waywardness is nothing. In their view, this is just the innocuous youthful arrogance of a young genius.

Can you still be called a young man without a little arrogance!
However, this defense also gave UCLA some opportunities, and they took the opportunity to move the score back.

With 4 minutes and 23 seconds left in the game, the score between the two sides became 59:68, and the score narrowed to double digits.

Kashuai, who smelled a hint of danger, called a timeout in time.

"Derek, don't gamble on defense anymore, this is the semifinals, not the time to be willful!"

Kashuai issued a warning.

Ross shrugged at Dorsey, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

多西看了看技术统计，罗斯23分12助攻8篮板4抢断；威斯布鲁克15分8助攻5篮板1抢断。

Basically the overall situation is settled, it doesn't matter.

Now there is only block, which is also the item with the highest reward in the system, which also shows that this is the most difficult to achieve.

700 sp ah!
Still have to think of a way.

Back on the court, the game entered the final sprint.

Everyone found that Rose's defense changed back to the steady way of the first half.

The experts are very satisfied with this, which shows that Ross is still very sensible, not willful at critical moments, and has the demeanor of a general.

After Rose stabilized, Memphis' defensive system became stronger again, and UCLA's scoring became difficult again.

The changes in defensive intensity and rhythm once again made UCLA feel uncomfortable.

Shepp and Collison missed consecutive jump shots, and Antonio Anderson also firmly locked Mbah a Moute. As for Kevin Love, he couldn't even touch the ball under Dorsey's strict defense.

Only Westbrook and Rose are left. After the two are fully fired, they are basically in a mutual explosion mode, and their influence on the battle situation basically cancels each other out.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the score did not change much.

In the last minute, the score was still 1:70.

Unless Westbrook is suddenly possessed by McGrady's soul, and it takes 35 seconds and 13 minutes, Memphis has already secured the victory.

Although it has nothing to do with the overall situation, Westbrook still attacked very resolutely.

Westbrook is very happy to meet an opponent like Rose.

Every round of competition, he can learn new things and have new insights.

At the same time, he also saw his own shortcomings and the current gap with Rose.

"Let's have another game!" Westbrook said to Rose.

"Okay, let the horse come over!" Ross laughed.

Heroes cherish heroes. Rose also fought very happily today, and he also cherishes the opportunity to fight against such an opponent.

Westbrook held the ball, a crosssover, but did not deceive Rose, but Westbrook's second reaction was quick, and then accelerated forward.

Rose stared very closely, Westbrook slowed down and then accelerated, the change of rhythm still did not shake off Rose.

After several breakthroughs, Westbrook himself was brought to the bottom line. He had no choice but to shoot.

Westbrook made a fadeaway jumper.

Rose also anticipated the opponent's intentions, jumped up, and blocked the shot in the air.

Both bodies were tilted at 45 degrees in the air!But Ross bounces faster and jumps higher!

Westbrook shot the ball, and Rose's finger touched the ball, changing the trajectory of the ball!
The ball landed and the block was successfully blocked!

Rose felt a sharp pain in his fingers.Can't help but curse: "son of a bitch"!
For this block, he poked his finger!
With less than 40 seconds left in the game, the game completely lost its suspense!

Memphis substituted Rose for a poked finger.

Rose covered his injured finger with the other hand, grinning in pain.

When passing by Dorsey, he said fiercely:
"Joy, we need to add food!"
