The Overlord of Basketball: 2K Possession

Chapter 70 Tournament 4
The basketball was in Ridnor's hands, and he was dribbling the ball while arranging tactics and directing his teammates to move.

He dribbles at the top of the arc, and the remaining four, all of them, pull away, giving way to the entire center all the way to the basket.

Obviously, Ridnor intends to play singles. In fact, his singles and breakthrough points are indeed the key to the University of Oregon's success today.

Playing an advantage at the beginning will be the key to this game.

The University of Oregon itself is a disadvantage, and once it falls behind, it will only get worse.

The same is true for UCLA. Faced with such a heavy pressure, it is even more negligent.

Cedric lowered his center of gravity very low, and stared at Ridnor with incomparable concentration.

Chen Mo and Hollins were also leaning towards the middle. Although they couldn't let go of their opponents directly, they maintained a posture of helping to defend at any time.

Ridnour dribbles rhythmically, suddenly accelerates, and begins to break to the left.

You know, his dominant hand is the right hand, and now he breaks directly to the left, which is somewhat unexpected.

Cedric was half a beat slower. In order to grab this gap, he naturally accelerated with all his strength.

"Oops!"

Don't look at Chen Mo's defense as mediocre, but when it comes to judgment, it's really not bad.

According to habit, Ridnour will take more breakthroughs on the right, while breakthroughs on the left are mostly fake moves.

Sure enough, after taking two sudden steps, Ridnor immediately took a frontal change of direction, and started to break through to the right again.

"Damn!"

Cedric only felt a sharp pain in his ankle. This kind of high-speed change of direction is especially harmful to the body.

Seeing that he was about to be completely rushed over, Cedric couldn't help but stretched out his hand, not caring about anything else.

"Di!"

A sharp whistle sounded, and Cedric stopped quickly, but it was already too late.

"NO! I didn't!"

It's a pity that the referee has already blown his whistle, so it is impossible to change the verdict, not to mention that Cedric did reach out.

Fortunately, it was not a shooting foul, it was just an ordinary foul, and the University of Oregon sent a sideline ball.

"Just be optimistic about people, don't foul!"

Coach Steve was afraid that Cedric would foul again, so he quickly reminded him that although Cedric had various problems, it would be impossible without him.

Ridnour continued to hold the ball from the outside, still did not find any cover, but chose a one-on-one duel.

The reason is very simple, Ridnor is also a player with comprehensive offensive means, and he has a great advantage against Cedric.

The UCLA team, due to the need for running and bombing, has high mobility.

Under such circumstances, even if it is a pick-and-roll, UCLA can still take a big delay to buy time for the opposing players.

In this way, it is not as good as a one-on-one heads-up.

This time, Ridnour directly used a cross step, and then broke through to the right with a slight swipe.

This time, Cedric really didn't dare to start, but just followed foolishly.

To be honest, following the defense behind like this won't do anything.

Hollins hesitated for a while, because Ridnor didn't fully enter the inside line, so he didn't dare to jump directly.

Ridnor suddenly made an emergency stop, and Cedric rushed past him. When he turned around to block the shot, Ridnor had already shot safely.

"Shh!"

There was no surprise, and there was no slightest precaution. The ball hit the net, and Ridnor took two points lightly.

0:2
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly. In this round, Cedric was directly beaten by Ridno.

It can be said that in this round alone, Cedric made countless mistakes.

First of all, his body was too tense, and instead of allowing him to react quickly, his body was too tense, but instead delayed his reaction time.

What's more, there was a mistake in the judgment during the defense, which led to being passed by Ridnour in one step.

In order to make up for this mistake, he actually chose to play, and was naturally called a foul.

In the end, he was too worried about another foul and didn't put enough pressure on Ridnour.

But that said, under such circumstances, it would be a problem if Ridnour didn't score.

To be honest, this is purely Cedric's failure to adjust his mentality, resulting in abnormal performance.

You know, in the regular season of the division, Cedric played back and forth with Ridnor.

Although Ridnour is more comprehensive, has rich offensive methods, and has a good pass.

But Cedric's body, speed, and impact on the inside are not something that Ridnor's small body can compete with.

It's just that the performance of the two of them today is simply one in the sky and the other in the earth.

Chen Mo served to Cedric and said, "Come on, Cedric, our game has just begun."

I don't know if Cedric listened to it, but anyway, he dribbled the ball across the half court safely.

Just after halftime, Cedric started looking for someone, and Chen Mo also came out in time to catch the ball.

The University of Oregon wants to grab the start, and UCLA also wants to grab it. Chen Mo is obviously the best choice.

Don't look at Ridnor's performance in these few games, but compared with Chen Mo, it is obviously not enough.

No, Chen Mo just caught the ball, and James Davis, who was defending him, immediately posted it.

For Chen Mo's unexpected three-pointer, the other teams were really scared.

No matter where, no matter how far, no matter when you can shoot!
While defending the opposing players, the others also focused part of their attention on Chen Mo.

Chen Mo saw that there was no chance to make a direct shot, so he first chose a false breakthrough to see if he could get room for a shot.

It's just that James Davis is obviously prepared, that is, he will not let go of the shot.

This can be regarded as the main method for other teams to deal with Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was a little helpless. Who would want to break through if he could shoot a three-pointer? Isn't he good for a three-pointer?
With a simple change of direction in advance and a cross step, Chen Mo broke through James Davis who was too tight.

James tried his best to follow behind. At the same time, the University of Oregon players who were closest to Chen Mo had already helped defend for the first time.

Judging by this posture, it was clearly intended to prevent Chen Mo from dying.

This is also a very common tactic, and it is quite useful against teams with superstars.

The balance of victory and defeat is handed over to role players. Compared with superstars, role players must be less sure.

No, Chen Mo didn't delay when he saw the double team coming up, and passed the ball to Kapono immediately.

He is a man with 5+ assists per game, so the difficulty of passing the ball is really nothing.

Kapono had a good opportunity to open up, so naturally he didn't hesitate at all, and he opened his hand to make a three-pointer.

"when!"

It's a pity that what followed was a crisp and loud sound of iron striking.

Sure enough, Kapono's mentality was also affected. Although they are old players, they are more likely to want to win and fear losing.

To put it bluntly, you have to play well during the competition. Once you think too much in your mind, it will definitely affect your movements.

For the shooting action that has been tempered countless times, any slight change will definitely affect the shooting rate.

The University of Oregon grabbed the rebound and handed it to Ridnour immediately, and Ridnour took advantage of the situation to launch a fast break.

You know, the University of Oregon is a lineup of three strikers and two guards, and the speed is also dissatisfied.
