Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 448 Evolution
Although Browning saw the talents of Qin Hao and Butler in the match a few months ago, he didn't expect the two to improve so fast, and they had already caught up with him in just a few months.

Especially Qin Hao.

At the beginning, he felt that Qin Hao was not as good as Butler in other aspects except that he was faster and more accurate in three-pointers than Butler.

But now.
It seems that Qin Hao is not inferior to Butler at all, and even surpasses him a little bit.

"You're so strong as a freshman, and you really can't compare yourself with others." Browning shook his head, but his eyes became brighter and fiercer than ever.

Moments later, Syracuse University also made a substitution.

Coach Fox replaced Qin Hao with a substitute player.

After making some arrangements for the players and watching the players walk onto the court, Coach Fox sat down on the bench, frowning, thinking about countermeasures.

"Moses, this old silver coin." Coach Fox cursed inwardly, a little depressed.

Today, the opponent gave him a slap in the face. Jefferson committed three fouls and had to replace him after only a few minutes of playing. Now he is afraid to let him play, so he can only wait for the second half.

But it is foreseeable that Jefferson will definitely be targeted by the opponent when he returns to the court in the second half. Marquette University will still make his fouls specially. There is no way to fight.

"What should I do?" Coach Fox rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.

At the beginning, he was fooled by the other party, and he was fooled by the other party. He lost the opportunity, and it is not so easy to turn the situation around.

On the court, the game continues.

In the duel of the rotation lineup, the two sides are evenly matched. Syracuse University's inside line is still Kent and Ellis, and the back line is Pingtouge and White.

I saw the flat-headed brother break through after catching a pick-and-roll, attract the defense, then pass the ball out, pass it to White, and White made a jumper.

After a few rounds, the position of his teammates was not very good. Brother Pingtou simply came by himself, relying on his excellent ball handling skills and physical talent to pass the defender, rushed to the inside and scored with a throw.

Throwing is also an extra training item for Brother Pingtou.

He is only 1.8 meters tall, not very tall, and he suffers from hitting the inside line, so Qin Hao suggested that he practice throwing hard, and the effect is still very good after a few months.

"Good shot." Assistant coach Harry applauded, and said next to Coach Fox: "Ed has improved a lot in the past few months. In fact, in terms of strength, he is no less than Felton."

"Yeah." Coach Fox nodded, seeing Pingtou playing well, he felt a little better, "But with our current system, Ed is more useful as a substitute. And he is only a freshman after all, we still have to You have to work hard to be unique.”

Assistant coach Harry laughed, and Ed should be satisfied with Coach Fox's words. This proves that Coach Fox intends to focus on training him and let him be the only one in the future.

As the head coach of the team, Coach Fox must ensure sufficient majesty, so he is generally very strict with the players.As an assistant coach, Harry can be gentler to the players, and he is willing to show more care to the players.

Not just Pingtou, but other players, such as Cole.

Kerr has been in a slump since being eliminated in the starting job, and Coach Fox gave up after talking to him twice.

But assistant coach Harry never gave up. Under his enlightenment and encouragement, after several months, Cole finally cheered up. Although he still lost a lot of things, he was still able to play a three-pointer as a substitute.

Pingtouge, White, Cole, Ellis, Kent.

Coach Fox is also quite satisfied with the five-man bench.

A few minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and at the end of the first half, Coach Fox sent Butler and Holbert up, mainly to grab points.

At this time, Syracuse University trailed by 4 points, and Coach Fox hoped to catch up with the score before the end of the first half.

Butler and Holbert did not disappoint Coach Fox, especially Butler, whose impact was fully reflected. Under the leadership of the two, Syracuse University seized the last minute of the first half to tie up the score.

When the first half ended, the score was 39:39.

"Although we didn't lose in the first half and the score was even, we only scored 39 points." Qin Hao was serious. "For us, if we scored less than 40 points in the half, we are not qualified."

"So how do we play the second half?" Butler asked.

Qin Hao shook his head, it depends on what Coach Fox means.

The intermission passed quickly and the second half was about to begin.

Coach Fox summoned the players and said, "Jefferson, Butler, Holbert, Qin, Felton, you guys are going to come on later, we will still fight and run." After finishing speaking, he specifically told Jefferson, "Jefferson, You have to pay attention to controlling your movements, the opponent will definitely call you a foul, so you have to be careful."

"Yeah." Jefferson nodded heavily.

Entering the second half, Marquette University really targeted Jefferson.

Syracuse University's "run and gun" lineup has only one inside player, and Jefferson has already committed three fouls. Marquette University is not stupid, so it naturally knows what to do.

Although Coach Fox had told Jefferson to control his movements and not to foul, after only three minutes into the second half, Jefferson committed another foul.

This time Jefferson just wanted to grab a rebound, but when he fell, his elbow hit Marquette University player Barton in the face, and was called a foul by the referee.

"Four times." Qin Hao sighed secretly.

Coach Fox immediately called a timeout and shook his head helplessly. Jefferson looked depressed and didn't dare to look at Coach Fox. He was ready to be replaced.

But Coach Fox did not replace Jefferson. Instead, he replaced Felton with Kent and said, "We won't play 'run and bomb' anymore."

In fact, Fox also considered replacing Jefferson first, waiting for the last few minutes before dispatching him to continue running and bombing, but playing "running and bombing" for a while, and not playing for a while, and the players switching back and forth would cause problems.

So Coach Fox decided to let Jefferson continue to play and replace Kent at the same time. Judging from the current situation, the "running and bombing" game is not going well. Instead of going on like this, it is better to make adjustments earlier and stop bombing.

"Next, let's do this." Coach Fox spread out the tactical board, made some tactical arrangements, then clapped his hands, and said to the players: "Okay, that's it. We didn't run away before and won six consecutive victories." Is it? As long as we fight well, it's fine."

"Ah."

"Correct."

Qin Hao and the others nodded in unison and walked onto the court.
