Chapter 43 Second Half

As a professional commentator, Mike Brin is still very accomplished. The so-called support for UCLA is just a gimmick.

After all, fans can sometimes be boring watching football, and it's pretty good to watch the dispute between the host and the guest commentator.

However, today's Danny Manny is too arrogant, that mouth directly makes people want to sew it up.

"Oh, Mike, you have really bad eyesight."

"UCLA is the same as you, it really can't!"

"See, just one Collison can blow you away, not to mention we have Hinrich."

……

Mike Brin's face is black, you don't know, the reason why I support UCLA is actually for a gimmick.

Although our quarrel is quite topical, and the fans like to watch it, but your mouth is too hurtful.

I have to say that after Danny Manny retired, it was a great loss not to become a commentator.

Under the constant blows, Mike Brin was also really upset. He hoped that UCLA would break out and teach the University of Kansas a lesson.

That's right, Mike Brin, who was originally not firm, was pushed to the opposite side by Manny.

Got hit again, although what Manny said was good, big guys can't guard against Collison, but small guys are fine?
But in this case, it is impossible to admit defeat, Mike Brin can only say with a straight neck.

"But you have been forgotten. The speed of the UCLA lineup is absolutely shocking. Can Collison really keep up?"

After all, it is a professional commentator, and Mike Breen also discovered the characteristics of this lineup for the first time.

"So what if they're fast, they don't have rebounds!"

Mike Brin smiled wisely and said, "In the first half, did UCLA have any rebounds?"

In the first half of the game, the University of Kansas's high shooting percentage did not leave too many rebounds for the NCAA.

Manny realized it later, but he also reacted in time. Anyway, there is no rebound, so it is better to fight for speed!

After all, he is a professional athlete, and Manny is not the kind of brainless black player.

Hearing what Mike Brin said, he immediately realized that UCLA's lineup really has its own characteristics.

It is indeed a very bold idea to give up the rebounds that he did not have, but to increase the speed faster.

The idea is not just bold, it's whimsical.

"Is the coach on the opposite side not a decoration? But a master?"

Manny never thought about being a commentator after retiring. His goal was to become a coach, so he naturally paid a lot of attention to capable coaches.

In the second half, UCLA took the lead in attacking. Cedric dribbled the ball halfway, and the others had already settled down.

I only saw the helplessness on Collison's face, and had to appear in a high position, because Cummings ran directly outside the three-point line.

If you don't follow him, Cummings is capable of three-pointers. If you dare to let it go, he will really dare to throw it.

As for changing defenses, who can you change?
Kapono, or Chen Mo?

These two can throw him to death.

Cedric directly chose to break through with the ball. Yes, he was also the main player in the second half.

When Collison was pulled out of the outside line and the inside protection was insufficient, Cedric made a breakthrough, and the effect was quite good.

Of course, if there is a chance, Cedric will also score the ball as soon as possible, and can't just play by himself.

It has to be said that Cedric is strong and scored the ball against Aaron Mills' defense.

The three-point ability is average, and the organizational ability is average. Under such circumstances, why does Cedric start?
Not to mention anything else, just Walcott on the UCLA bench, three-pointers and organization, will be better than Derek.

It's just that Cedric's defense is good. After all, his body is there, and he can even guard against some wing players.

More importantly, Cedric has a good offensive ability. Most of the time, especially when the team's outside three-pointers are not accurate, he can attack the inside.

However, Cedric's style of play is very restrictive. Without three-pointers and mid-range shots, it is a breakthrough.

Once there is a strong and tall inside line, Cedric's role will be greatly reduced.

Just like today, Cedric's performance in the first half was mediocre. Even if he could break through, he would be restricted to death when facing Collison.

Now that Collison has been pulled out, the University of Kansas, which has lost its inside protection, naturally gave Cedric a chance.

56:43, Cedric easily scored the ball.

It's just that the University of Kansas is not in a hurry. They still have a 13-point lead, and they even have an advantage in the lineup.

Sure enough, Collison immediately came to the low post request, and Cummings had nothing to do.

The four at the University of Kansas opened up and handed the low post to Collison, and the ball fell into his hands as he wished.

Collison observed the positions of the others, and then began to dig in.

The height difference is nearly 10cm, and the weight is at least 10 kg. The difference is too much.

"boom!"

Sure enough, at the first hard top, Cummings took a step back, completely unable to fight.

Since UCLA used Cummings, it was naturally prepared for it. It didn't think Cummings could defend one-on-one.

Thompson on the flank immediately chose to double-team, and he was very clear about the coach's tactics.

Nick Collison played well in the first half, of course, that refers to the opening stage of the first half.

Afterwards, he kept being double-teamed, which made Collison very depressed. Although the team took the lead, he played very unhappy today.

At this point, Dijon Thompson, a small man with a height of only 2 meters, you dare to double-team?
At this moment, Collison is like a volute possessed, one hit two, isn't this a big vacancy!
Not to mention, although Collison is a big man, his steps are very flexible.

Seeing Thompson's double-team coming, he turned around and won the shot space.

Once the big man is caught, it is easy to lose the ball and make mistakes. Collison didn't dare to delay and shot immediately.

However, what he didn't expect was that UCLA's double-teaming of him was really frenzied.

Seeing that the double team was unsuccessful, a third person followed immediately.

What's more, although Cummings failed to guard Collison, he also caused him a lot of trouble.

Collison made a strong shot, and a figure rushed over from the flank, covering the sky and the sun!

"Snapped!"

The person who made up the defense was naturally Chen Mo, and he politely invited Collison to have a big hot pot, and he was also a nail-biting hat.

Relying on his height and wingspan, Chen Mo grabbed the rebound immediately, and started to counterattack without saying a word.

And Kapono and Cedric, who were cruising on the outside, were the first to move and attack.

Thompson and Cummings were also not slow, and followed up decisively almost immediately.

As for Kansas, in addition to Collison, there were two players on the baseline who reacted a bit slower.

At this moment, a 5-on-2 situation is formed, which is the benefit of quick offensive and defensive transitions.

Bombardment tactics have never been afraid of solid defense, they are afraid of the opponent's super high hit rate, and they don't give a chance to counterattack at all.
