Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 504 Ten consecutive victories

Villanova University, basketball court.

Today is Syracuse University's away game against Villanova University, the game has reached the second half, the score is 53:54, Syracuse University is 1 point behind.

This is already Syracuse University's tenth regular season game this season. Syracuse University played nine games before, winning all nine games and winning nine consecutive victories.However, none of the previous nine opponents were particularly strong, at least not as strong as Villanova University.

Qin Hao and Butler rested on the sidelines, and both sides played in rotation.

On Syracuse University's side are Kent, Jefferson, Tucker, White, and Brother Pingtou.

I saw Pingtou advance to the front court with the ball and gestured to his teammates. Kent stepped forward to pick and roll. Pingtou used the pick and roll to throw off the defender and attack the inside. Move the inside line and help the inside line to defend.

The flat-headed brother split the ball and passed it to Tucker. Tucker feinted with the ball, and then took a step forward, but he didn't hit it himself, but passed the ball to the top of the arc beyond the three-point line.

White caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

Swish!
The ball goes in.

"The ball was handled well." Butler applauded, and said to Qin Hao, "Taker has improved rapidly during this period, and his talent is indeed good."

"Well, his defense is good, and his ability to support and handle the ball is also good. Although his finishing ability is a bit weak, it is not bad for a freshman." Qin Hao laughed.

If Tucker is put on the starting lineup and partners with Qin Hao and Butler, then the weak finishing ability is not a big deal. Anyway, the starting lineup is mainly scored by Qin Hao and Butler.

With Qin Hao and Butler around, the finishing ability of others almost doesn't matter.

In the new season, Syracuse University has played nine regular season games and won all nine games. Tucker's progress is obvious to all. Now everyone on the team realizes how much Coach Fox values ​​Tucker.

Some keen people have even guessed Coach Fox's intentions, but they just took into account Greg's feelings, and no one said it.

Looking at Tucker who was defending on the field, Qin Hao thought of Drummond Green of the Warriors.

Tucker is actually somewhat similar to Green. They both have excellent defense, can handle the ball, and have a certain ability to organize and pass the ball.

At this time, Green hadn't entered the NBA, and there was no "Splash Brothers", so it was impossible for Coach Fox to know the Warriors' "small ball play" a few years later.

But while making Syracuse's "run and gun" more and more suitable for Syracuse, Coach Fox was in some ways the same as Coach Steve Kerr a few years later.

This even surprised Qin Hao.

Of course, there are only similarities between Syracuse University's "running and bombing tactics" and the Warriors' "small ball play", but they are not the same in essence.

Qin Hao is different from Curry, and Butler is also very different from Clay. Besides, Syracuse University has insiders, and Jefferson does. They can only be regarded as "one major and four minors", not a strict "small lineup".

From the lineup point of view, Syracuse University is still more like the Suns.

Swish!
A soft sound.

On the court, Villanova University made a three-pointer.

At this time, Villanova University began to gradually gain the main players, regained the upper hand, and gradually opened up the score
A moment later, Villanova University led by 4 points, and then center Tyronn hit a low single, which also caused Kent's foul and scored 2+1.

For a while, Villanova University extended its lead to 7 points.

The auditorium was full of fans of Villanova University. Seeing the team lead by 7 points, they began to cheer loudly, and the sound was so loud that it filled the entire arena.

"Substitution." Coach Fox asked for a substitution, looking at the bench, "Qin, Jimmy, you all come on, replace White and Kent."

"Yes."

"It's our turn."

The two got up and walked to the field.

When Qin Hao and Butler returned to the field, the auditorium suddenly fell silent, and the fans couldn't help but feel a little nervous, staring at the field without blinking.

It was still Pingtou who played the No. 1 position. After he came to the front court, he passed the ball to Qin Hao, and the others pulled away to let Qin Hao play singles.

"Whoosh!"

Qin Hao broke through, accelerated suddenly, and broke through from the left. The defender immediately turned around and chased. He couldn't stop Qin Hao, so he could only chase.

However, at this moment, Qin Hao stopped suddenly, and the defender couldn't help but bump into Qin Hao. Qin Hao jumped up and made a throw.

beep!
Swish!
The whistle blows and the ball goes in.

The goal was scored and caused a foul by the opponent.

Qin Hao went to the free throw line and steadily made an extra free throw. A 2+1 was scored, which was regarded as retaliation and narrowed the point difference to 4 points.

In the next round, Qin Hao opened the singles again, and Villanova University had to double-team, and the two rushed to Qin Hao at the same time.Qin Hao smiled slightly and passed the ball to Butler. Butler took the ball and made a breakthrough, rushed inside to find a confrontation, and scored against the defender.

"I can't help it."

"If you double-team this, you won't be able to guard against that. There is no way."

The home fans sighed, aggrieved.

If it's just Qin Hao, it's enough to double-team directly, but Syracuse University also has Butler, who double-teams Qin Hao, butler will play singles.In a one-on-one situation, whether it is Qin Hao or Butler, there is no solution for Villanova University. They have no players who can guard against these two.

Seeing Qin Hao and Butler turn the situation around after going up, Coach Fox heaved a sigh of relief, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

They have won nine consecutive victories this season and currently rank first in the Big East.

The reason why such achievements can be achieved is related to the improvement of the overall strength of the players, the more tacit cooperation, and the more mature tactical system, but the most important thing is to have Qin Hao and Butler.

In half a year, Qin Hao and Butler have made great progress. Villanova University had difficulty guarding them last season, and this season will be even worse.

Swish!
Just thinking about it, Qin Hao made another three-pointer.

But in a short time, the difference between the two sides was close to 1 point, and soon Syracuse University overtook the score, maintaining the lead until the end of the game.

"drop"

When the game ended, Syracuse University won 88:82.

In this game, Qin Hao scored 24 points, 7 rebounds, and 8 assists. Butler scored 22 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 block. Syracuse University's record has improved to ten consecutive victories.
In the past ten games at Syracuse University, Qin Hao averaged 20.4 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 8.0 assists per game. Both points, assists, and rebounds were higher than last season.

Same goes for Butler.

In ten games, Butler averaged 21.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game, far exceeding his last season's data.

Moreover, this time Syracuse University did not defeat a weak team, but Villanova University. Compared with last season, Syracuse University seems to be stronger.

For a while, the Big East League was in turmoil, and all the teams were nervous.
