Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 453 Win and advance!
"Tsk tsk, Syracuse University's offense is too fierce."

"It's not just fierce, it's unstoppable. The University of Louisville can't defend at all. If you want to compete in scoring ability, the University of Louisville is definitely not the opponent of Syracuse University. Qin, Butler, and Holbert, these are all Great scorer."

"Both sides are starting to switch players"

In the auditorium, the fans were discussing.

The game lasted 8 minutes, and everyone could see that although the University of Louisville has ace center Landers and has a great advantage in the interior, they are not the opponents of Syracuse University.

Not only because of the difference in score, but also because the 8-minute game was obviously the rhythm of the game controlled by Syracuse University.

Against the last team that played "running and bombing tactics", when the rhythm is controlled by them, it is too difficult for you to beat them.

At this time, both sides made personnel adjustments. Qin Hao, Holbert, and Jefferson were all replaced. Although the "running and bombing tactics" were fierce, they also consumed a lot of physical energy for the players.

After that, the two sides gradually took the substitute players.

When the two sides met for the first time this season, Syracuse's bench lineup was not as good as that of Louisville, but that is not the case now.

With the growth of the flat-headed brother, Kerr cheering up, and Kent being put on the bench, the strength of Syracuse's bench lineup has been greatly enhanced.

Syracuse University still has the upper hand in the battle between the two sides' bench lineups.

"The gap has gotten bigger."

"It has already reached double digits, and the University of Louisville will be finished early if it continues like this."

Some fans are lamenting the strength of Syracuse University.

Coach Dawn frowned. The point difference between the two sides has already widened to 12 points. If it continues to expand, there will be no hope for the second half.

"Request a substitution." Coach Dawn had no choice but to replace the main players in advance.

at the same time.

Coach Fox also gradually replaced the main players. Qin Hao rested for a few minutes and recovered a little.
In a blink of an eye, the first half is over.

The score was 47:34, and Syracuse University led by 13 points.

"coach."

"Coach, what should we do?"

Todd, Landers and other University of Louisville players looked at Coach Dawn in unison. They trailed by 13 points in the first half. They were completely suppressed. Is there any hope of winning if this continues?

This is the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament system, where life and death are determined by a game.

"Hey." Coach Dawn sighed inwardly. It's not because the players didn't play well, but because there is a gap in strength. Syracuse University is too strong now.

Of course, he couldn't say that.

Coach Dawn clapped his hands and cheered up the players: "Don't be discouraged, there is still the second half, so what if we are behind by 13 points? As long as we play hard, I believe we will catch up." After finishing speaking, regardless of whether it is useful or not, Spread out the tactical board and start to arrange tactics, "The first thing we need to do in the second half is to control the rhythm, and the second is to defend against Qin. He is the key to Syracuse University's 'run and bomb tactics'. Double-team him for me."

The second half begins quickly.

The University of Louisville began to press the rhythm, and each attack lasted more than 30 seconds, but their offensive efficiency was not high enough, and they could only rely on the inside to score, and the scoring efficiency was lower than that of Syracuse University.

The key point of using pressure rhythm to deal with "running and bombing tactics" is not that each attack should be pressed for more than 30 seconds, but the success rate.

It can only work if the success rate is high enough.

Unfortunately, the University of Louisville can't do it.

At the same time, the University of Louisville began to double-team Qin Hao, but it was also useless. Syracuse University did not play positional warfare at all. It was passed on.

What else is going on here?
Double-team a lonely ah!

"It's over." Coach Dawn sighed, knowing that the game could not be won.

If you can't limit the opponent's "running and bombing tactics", you can't limit the opponent's offense, then chasing points will become empty talk.

What's more, the difference is even bigger.

After a few minutes of playing in the second half, the point difference has become 16 points, which is too big for the ncaa game.

There were only ten minutes left in the game, and with a 16-point difference, continuing to press the tempo was tantamount to suicide. Todd gritted his teeth, greeted his teammates, and changed his tactics.

Now Syracuse University is leading by a big score, and it is Syracuse University that is willing to waste time, so the University of Louisville no longer presses the rhythm and starts to rush for time.

But in this way, it is more conducive to Syracuse University's "running and bombing".

When the point difference approached the 20-point mark, the game lost its suspense.

"we won."

"Haha, it's a sure win."

In the auditorium, fans of Syracuse University have already begun to celebrate.

The suspense was lost in the game, and Syracuse University didn't need to play "running and bombing" anymore. Coach Fox replaced Kent, changed to conventional tactics, and started to press the rhythm to consume time, just like the University of Louisville before. Each attack takes more than 30 seconds.

Anyway, if you spend it like this, you will win.

In fact, Louisville has lost its fighting spirit, and it doesn't matter if Syracuse takes time or not.

When there were only 4 minutes left in the game, Qin Hao, Butler, and Holbert were replaced by Qi Qi, and a substitute lineup was sent, and the game entered garbage time.

"drop"

When the game ended, with a score of 91:78, Syracuse University defeated the University of Louisville by 13 points and successfully advanced to the second round of the playoffs.

In this game, Qin Hao scored 27 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists, a 20+10 double-double, Butler 21 points, and Holbert 17 points.
At the same time, the other two games also ended one after another.

In the first round of the Big East playoffs, in addition to Syracuse University vs. University of Louisville, there are three other games, University of Connecticut vs. Georgetown University, Villanova University vs. University of Notre Dame, Marquette University vs. South Florida University of Florida.

On the same day as Syracuse vs. Louisville, Marquette beat South Florida and UConn beat Georgetown.

And one day later, the last game of the first round of the Big East playoffs, Villanova University vs. Notre Dame University also came to an end. Villanova University defeated Notre Dame University and advanced to the second round.

The semi-finals of the playoffs were released, and there was no upset. The top four teams in the regular season advanced smoothly.

In other words, the second round of the playoffs will be the University of Connecticut vs. Marquette University, and Syracuse University vs. Villanova University.

The second round of the playoffs is approaching, and the next opponent of Syracuse University will be Villanova University. Everyone in Syracuse University feels the pressure. Villanova University is much stronger than the University of Louisville.
