professional shooting guard

Chapter 79

Zhang Zifeng played, and the head coach of Mercer University, Smith, also hurriedly sent Dennis on the field.

Zhang Zifeng was in the frontcourt, seeing Dennis still staring at him like a wolf.

Zhang Zifeng knew that it was difficult to get rid of him by running, and it was too exhausting.

With about 9 minutes left in the game, Zhang Zifeng knew that he had to use a more labor-saving method.

Stuck Dennis with his butt, Zhang Zifeng stretched out his hand at the three cents to signal a pass.

Cook took the ball to the front court, saw Zhang Zifeng asking for the ball, ignored Parker, and passed the ball to Zhang Zifeng.

Everyone has a steelyard in their hearts. Everyone knows who can help the team and who is holding back.

We are all eager to win, how can we squander opportunities with you.

Zhang Zifeng got the ball, and Dennis came close to him, waving his hands and interfering.

Zhang Zifeng pretended to pass the ball to Parker, but Dennis turned sideways to the passing line.

Zhang Zifeng immediately took a step back, as if his body was about to jump.

Dennis was terrified. This guy made four of four three-pointers in the first half, and he felt violent.

Seeing Dennis jumping up, Zhang Zifeng leaned forward and broke through.

Bryan moved laterally to make up for it.

Passing the ball to Jefferson, Zhang Zifeng slid to the baseline.

Mercer University focused on Jefferson, who was open, and didn't notice Zhang Zifeng.

When Jefferson and Krstic rushed to block Jefferson, Jefferson passed the ball.

Zhang Zifeng received a layup with an easy layup.

After scoring the goal, Zhang Zifeng shouted loudly, "Come back to the defense, don't give the opponent a chance!"

After Zhang Zifeng played, he stabilized Duke University's offensive and tried his best to interfere with Mercer University's offensive several times.

The situation was back on Duke's side.

Duke University regained the lead, which made the old K on the sidelines a little relieved.

In the 16th minute of the second half, Zhang Zifeng took advantage of the screen pulled by Plumlee, received a pass, feinted, avoided Dennis' block, and jumped up to shoot.

Hit the three!

At this time, Duke University overtook the score, 71:66.

The Blue Devils fans shouted, shouting loudly at the fans, "See, don't try to beat our great Blue Devils. We have Jack, and his shots can kill your humble wishes."

The commentator Wharton also shouted excitedly, "Wow, Zhang Zifeng has played his role as a sharp shooter again. He scored 9 points in the second half!"

"The game has come to an end, and Duke University, which is behind, made a big counterattack in the second half! Just now Zhang Zifeng hit a three-pointer and already led by 5 points. Now there are only 4 minutes left in the game. Duke University leads by [-] points, The balance of victory is tilting towards Duke University. If Duke can win this game, the biggest hero is the Chinese Zhang Zifeng, who saved Duke with his shots when Parker was in a downturn."

After talking about Duke University, Wharton also explained a few words about Mercer University.

"For Mercer, it was a great day for them. They still have a chance, hopefully they can keep going."

Blue Devils fans are very excited, they seem to see the hope of victory.

While the Blue Devils fans were excited, the game ushered in a turning point at this moment. Mercer University coach Smith played a full-court pressing zone defense.

As soon as Cook caught the ball, Kauser tangled up.

When Zhang Zifeng ran over to respond, Dennis gritted his teeth and walked around to defend.

"This bastard doesn't even want me to take the ball!" Zhang Zifeng thought angrily.

When Parker was in a downturn, Zhang Zifeng carried Duke's offense alone.

Under Dennis' defense, he ran for 33 minutes.From the second half to the last moment, Zhang Zifeng couldn't keep up physically.

The running was much slower, and Zhang Zifeng did not get rid of Dennis after several runs.

Seeing that Zhang Zifeng had no chance to catch the ball, Cook was just about to pass the ball to Parker.

Glenn took the first step to intercept the ball.

Krstic in the middle went straight to the penalty area, received a pass and dunked the ball heavily into the basket.

Mercer University showed its toughness and united efforts to achieve the ultimate defense. Duke University was unable to score for two and a half minutes.

In the 18th minute of the second half, Glenn made a long three-pointer.

71:71, split evenly.

Duke University is in a tough fight, and now no one can say with confidence that Duke University will win.

Mercer University, a previously unknown team, now looks like a dark horse!

What to do, now the situation is not good is Duke University.

At this time, the old coach K decisively called a timeout, interrupting the momentum of Mercer University.

Back on the bench, all eyes at Duke were on Parker.

Everyone knows that Parker is the key.

Old Coach K looked at Parker angrily, and yelled at him: "Jabari, what the hell are you doing, what kind of shit are you playing today! Pass the ball out, let the team move..."

The always gentle old K is now in a hurry, transforming into a hair dryer and yelling at Parker.

"Yes, coach. I will play according to the tactics!" Parker shouted through gritted teeth.

After yelling at Parker, Old K looked at Zhang Zifeng, "I know you're tired, Jack. But it's the last moment, hold on!"

Zhang Zifeng nodded, "Don't worry, I can persevere, Coach!"

A big difference between the NCAA and the NBA is that there are very few timeouts, only five in the game.

Moreover, there are also clear regulations on substitutions. It is not possible to let the best defensive players play at the last moment and when defending like the NBA.

When it comes to offense, put your best offensive player on the field.

Old K knew that Zhang Zifeng was exhausted, but he didn't dare to let him go.

Zhang Zifeng was a shock on the court, making the opponent dare not double-team Parker.

This is the power of a sharpshooter!
After the timeout, the old coach K replaced Plumlee and replaced Hood.

Mercer University is pressing the whole court, and putting Hood, who has breakthrough ability, on the court will help Parker even more.

The referee blew his whistle, and Parker rushed out of the crowd.

The moment Parker received the ball, Glenn posted it.

Parker made a crotch, caught Glenn dribble and advanced to the front court.

Old Coach K and Coach Brown watched the game nervously, and they had already made all the tactical arrangements they could.

The rest is up to the players' own control.

In the frontcourt, Parker scanned the situation on the court. Both Zhang Zifeng and Hood ran to the bottom corner to pull away the defenders and cleared all the strong side areas of the basketball.

At this time, only Parker and Glenn are left on the strong side.

Parker dribbled the ball twice in a cross-step, and changed direction twice quickly, throwing off Glenn and heading into the penalty area.

Seeing that Parker could still maintain this ability at the last moment of the game, Zhang Zifeng sighed, it really is amazing.

Compared with him, there is still a gap.

Just when everyone thought Parker would layup,
Parker saw Kostic rushing over, but chose to pass the ball!
Jefferson thought that Parker would come by himself and was not ready to catch the ball at all.

Jefferson scrambles to catch the ball, and Krstic, already in place, pokes it away from behind.

hateful!

In addition to being unhappy with Kostic, Jefferson was also very unhappy with Parker.

As a teammate, don't you know that you are not good at offense?

And the most important thing is that you are playing singles all the time, and you never thought you would pass the ball.I was about to get stuck for a rebound, but you passed the ball over.

What kind of!
Brian grabs the ball, doesn't stay, he passes it to Glenn immediately.

Jefferson didn't expect Parker to pass, and neither did his teammates.

When he reacted again, the opponents had all rushed to the front court.

Glenn lit up Mercer fans with a dunk.

The score was also rewritten to 71:73.

Only 50 seconds left.

With cheers, Mercer University fans saw the team playing so well and supported their home team with all their enthusiasm.

At this time, the momentum of Mercer University overwhelmed Duke University.

Seeing Parker and Jefferson's mistake in cooperation, the old coach K who was standing off the court cursed, "Asshole!"

I don't know whether to scold Jefferson or Parker.

There is not much time left for Duke University, less than 50 seconds left.

The attack of the next round is the key, not only to score a goal, but also to defend the opponent once.

Mercer University's failure to attack is at most a draw, and Duke University's mistakes are irreversible!
