I’m Really Playing Basketball

No one expected that the match between Duke University and Marquette University would start like this.

No matter how 'smart' Coach K is, he couldn't have imagined that this would happen.

A beginner with no defense, relying on his mid-range shot, was inseparable from the team's NCAA first-man game and destroyed each other.

Seeing Jay Williams looking so superior, to be reasonable, Coach K misses Battier a little bit.

When Battier was around, Jay Williams wouldn't be so insensitive.

He is powerful, but too manic and arrogant, irritable, and easy to underestimate the enemy. This is why he has been worried about whether the team will have an accident at the beginning of this season, and the reason why he will be upset to end the season.

I thought that with the excitement of Marquette this season, Jay Williams would change.

Unexpectedly, at the most critical moment, Jay Williams, who gave him a headache, still appeared.

Without stimulation, it is easy to become arrogant and slack.

The stimulation is too great, and it is easy to ignore everything above.

To be reasonable, a player as talented and powerful as Jay Williams really makes people love and hate.

Coach K sighed silently in his heart.

However, since the accident had already happened, his previous temptation to Chen Xiao proved to be wrong.

So now we need to make up for the previous misjudgment.

Although Wonder Boy has no defense, no pass control, and nothing but mid-range shots.

But his mid-range shooting still exceeded his and Duke's previous expectations.

Although Jay Williams' defense has NBA standards, it is still vulnerable to the mid-range shot of the Wonder Boy.

It doesn't make any sense to continue to let Jay Williams and Chen Xiao destroy each other, it will only make the other players of the team more and more frightened and scared.

At the same time, it will make the players of Marquette University next door more and more excited, and their fighting spirit will become more and more high.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling Jay Williams is, he still needs to make changes to the team's style of play.

The team needs to use stronger overall strength to regain the team's confidence.

If this game is not a final, but an ordinary game, Coach K will be very difficult to handle.

However, this game is the final, no matter how dissatisfied Jay Williams is, he can force it.

This game crushed Jay Williams, and it won't do any harm to Duke's future games and team unity.

This is his last game in the NCAA, and he will enter the NBA after playing.

Even if Jay Williams was forced in this game, it was impossible for Jay Williams not to get angry with him in victory.

He wants to win the game and win the No. 1 pick.

Jay, I understand your current mood, but you are not the only one who can destroy Wonder Boy, Carlos, Mike, Deng Tai and even Chris, each of them can destroy Wonder Boy on the offensive end, yours Although personal ability is the strongest in the team, don’t forget that your teammates are also the best group of NCAA players, you are not alone, they can also help you achieve your goals.”

Let others help me achieve my goal of destroying that kid?

How could Jay Williams be willing to accept it?

However, looking at Coach K's unquestionable eyes, Jay Williams gritted his teeth and did not speak up.

However, Jay Williams, who had endured it, looked at Coach K with a cold look.

In the end, Jay Williams still failed to get upright in front of Coach K.

The Duke players on one side were relieved to see Jay Williams compromise.

Can you imagine how terrifying it was for them to see those goals that Chen Xiao hit against Jay Williams' defense one by one on the court just now?

They were not for the faint of heart, but they all felt that if this continued, they would be shot mad before Jay Williams was shot.

In the confrontation between Keai, either the mortals next to him suffered, or the baskets on both sides were flooded, which probably meant this.

That magical boy is too scary, but also too amazing!

Wait a minute when we play, we need to find that magic kid on the offensive end to overwhelm us!

The other Duke players looked at each other and felt the same meaning in each other's eyes.

In fact, Coach K's tactical arrangement is also the same.

Wonderboy's mid-range shot is excellent, but his defense is terrible. Jay has already tested it for us. If you feel necessary on the court, you can try to find Wonderboy.

For Duke University, Coach K is re-arranging tactics for Duke University players.

On the side of Marquette University, Tom Kline didn't say anything about tactics, but kept encouraging the players.

The Marquette player's specialty is defense.

Except for Chen Xiao, everyone's defense is very good, and the error control is also very good. Basically, they will not give the opponent a fast break opportunity.

But attack...

Even Wade has big flaws.

So Marquette's offense doesn't have as many routines as Duke, just three tricks.

Emphasis on defense?

Defense needs to be emphasized, but it can only emphasize attitude, there is no way to emphasize tactics.

Marquette's other four defended well, but Chen Xiao's defense was poor.

There's such a defensive hole out there that it doesn't make sense to emphasize any defensive play.

Any fool would know that he would hit Chen Xiao.

It's just that other NCAA teams don't have enough offensive players, so it's hard to penetrate Chen Xiao's defense.

However, Duke University is different. Four of the five starters claim to have NBA-level offense.

Everyone took turns beating Chen Xiao, and they could vomit Chen Xiao.

And more importantly, every player in Marquette University has an excellent offense, with more than 50% shooting rate and 40% three-point shooting rate. For such a team, double-teaming is courting death.

Therefore, Tom Crean could only watch helplessly as Duke University beat Chen Xiao crazily after the timeout ended.

In this case, does it make sense not to emphasize the spirit, but to emphasize the others?

Of course it doesn't make sense.

I hope that Chen Xiao's flawless defense will not affect his offensive mentality.

In the previous game, the mutual destruction between Chen Xiao and Jay Williams was indeed a huge stimulus to the morale of Marquette University.

Tom Crean himself was inspired.

But after Jay Williams stripped Chen Xiao's defense like stripping clothes, it also had a very positive meaning for Duke University.

So, it looks like the previous game was in Marquette's favor.

In fact, it is also beneficial to Duke University.

After all, many of them once thought that Chen Xiao already possessed the average defensive ability of the NCAA.

Even he didn't think that Chen Xiao's defense was so flawed.

Although his explosiveness, lateral movement, steals and even strength are all right, I really didn't expect him to be so bad at man-marking.

As long as it's playing with technology, you can play Chen Xiao like a stake!

Which of the four Duke University players with NBA-level offensive capabilities is not skilled?

all of them!

These players from Duke University can't beat Chen Xiao!

Now that the team's morale is high and people's hearts are available, Tom Crean doesn't intend to pour cold water on the team, he can only add fuel to the fire, and absolutely can't draw from the bottom of the pot.

encourage!

encourage!

Encourage again!

The players from Marquette University were howling stimulated by Tom Kline, each and every one of them seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood.

Among them, Chen Xiao was the worst.

add a bit!

add a bit!

Keep adding points!

After completing the enlightenment of the man-marking attribute, Chen Xiao directly filled up the man-marking attribute with his basketball experience.

personal attributes

Speed: 70+ (70)

Explosive power: 85+

Bounce: 70+ (70)

Flexible: 70+ (70)

Balance: 60+ (60)

Stamina: 70+ (70)

Strength: 60+ (60)

Traverse: 70+ (70)

Free throws: 70+ (70)

CIC: 90

Steals: 65+ (65)

Marking: 70+ (70)

Evaluation: C+ (player with rough skills, qualified single-defense ability, excellent explosive power, and outstanding mid-range shooting ability.)

After adding points, Chen Xiao's system single-defense evaluation changed again.

From having a certain single-defense ability to a qualified single-defense ability.

So, is this 'qualified' considered NBA qualified or NCAA qualified?

If he is qualified for the NBA, does he have the same NBA-level single defense as Jay Williams, Chris Duhon, Dunleavy Jr., and Deng Tai Jones, four Duke players?

Agility 70, Lateral 70, Marking 70, Stealing 65, Strength 60.

Chen Xiao's five attributes that affect single defense are actually not very low.

Especially for the most important one-on-one defense, man-marking. After adding the man-marking point to 70 just now, Chen Xiao's mind has become clearer about many one-on-one defense moves and timing choices.

Although he hasn't tried it on the court, he can clearly feel that his defense has become stronger.

Because of the close match between Chen Xiao and Jay Williams, the Duke University fans on the sidelines were a little silent.

An absolute minority of Marquette University fans took the initiative on the field.

The team has always been looked down upon, and finally became strong, when is it not high now?

In the stands, as a Marquette University legend, Chicago State University head coach Beau Ellis is very excited now.

This self-proclaimed orthodox head coach of the Golden Eagle now doesn't care what is orthodox or not.

We can win!

The Golden Eagle spirit can complete the great revival tonight!

At this time, Boellis completely forgot the pain of leading Chicago State University to a league-worst record of 2 wins and 26 losses.

Last year's 3 wins and 24 losses were the second-to-last in the league. This year, it is finally the last in the league. With 26 losses in a single season, it is also the team with the most losses in the NCAA this season.

10 wins, 5 wins, 3 wins, 2 wins...

He who wants to revive the Golden Eagle spirit may not have noticed that he has been discrediting the Golden Eagle spirit.

Compared with Bo Ellis, Marquette University's first player in team history, Butch Lee, is not so optimistic.

In fact, apart from Bo Ellis, the surrounding Marquette University celebrities are not optimistic.

For example, the Hawks backup forward Chris Crawford.

The odds off the court have not changed in any way because of the game just now.

Although gambling is not good, sometimes the actuaries of the bookmaker are the most accurate group of people who can predict the trend of the game.

They are cold-blooded and calm enough.

They are a group of people who truly have God's perspective.

In the situation where Marquette University's second child and Duke University's leader were in an inextricable fight just now, they still think that Marquette University's winning rate in this game is still 2%, which is very problematic.

No, the odds are not unchanged. Duke University's winning percentage has increased by 0.1 to 98.1%!

Magic coach Doc Rivers said heavily after looking at the data handed over by someone next to him.

Marquette University and Wonder Boy played so well just now, and the winning percentage did not increase but decreased, which is very self-explanatory.

The game just now made the bookmaker even less optimistic about Marquette University.

Because of Boy Wonder's defense?

Only for this reason!

Wonder Boy's defense will not be a fatal problem against any other NCAA team, but it will not work against Duke. As long as Coach K is not stupid, Duke University will use offense to defeat Wonder Boy!

It has to be said that the perspective of professionals and the perspective of fans are completely different.

Isn’t it amazing that the Duke fans and the professionals who support Marquette are now worried?

The timeout ended, the game resumed, and on the court, Duke continued to attack.

After returning from the timeout, Duke's offense changed.

No more Jay Williams' unrestricted ball-handling isolations.

Duke's ball-handling player has turned into Chris Duhon.

Chris Duhon is Chen Xiao's counterpoint.

Unlike Jay Williams, Chris Duhon is a very team player.

He is one of Duke University's most important long-range weapons. He is accurate from three-pointers.

His personality is very simple, just like his style of play, he is completely the player standing opposite Jay Williams.

With the defensive ability that Chen Xiao showed just now, which Duke University player doesn't want to come up and beat him up?

And it was beaten to death!

But Duhon was different.

He also has the ability to single Chen Xiao, but after he tentatively singled Chen Xiao, he gave up directly.

Chen Ling just took off his pants, and before he even showed up, this kid just put on his clothes and left!

Chris Duhon, who gave up playing singles with Chen Xiao, signaled Boozer to come out for a pick-and-roll, and at the same time put Chen Xiao in front of Boozer.

To be honest, Boozer who was pulled out was also very surprised. Although Chris Duhon is not as energetic as Jay Williams, he still has no problem playing a small beginner defense.

However, since he gave himself the Wonder Boy, Boozer is of course not polite, he still wants to improve his draft prospects.

After receiving a pass from Duhon, Boozer was ready to show off his skills.

But soon, when Chen Xiao posted it and blocked almost all his dribbling routes, Boozer was shocked.

Boozer, who was just about to release the ball, instinctively raised the ball high again. He didn't show off his skills, but he hit it high and made a long-range mid-range shot against Chen Xiao's defense.

Looks like a difficult mid-range shot.

12 to 12!

Duke University tied the score again.

After Duke University tied the score, the Duke University fans on the sidelines of course cheered.

Coach K on the sidelines frowned a little at the moment.

This is not how he imagined the team's offense.

Chris Duhon just gave up the singles.

Boozer also gave up the dribble but directly held high and hit big and small shots.

How is this going?

Unlike Jay Williams, Chris Duhon and Boozer are very cautious people.

They feel the danger from the defense of Wonder Boy!

How can this be? !

Not only Coach K is now surprised by Duke University's offense, Tom Kline is also surprised.

Although Duke University's attack was successful, it was unexpectedly difficult!

Is it because of Chen's defense?

is it possible?

Tom Kline and Tim Buckley were also full of doubts.

In any case, if every attack from Duke University in the future is so difficult, he is willing to see it.

Of course, this time Duke University had some tough offense, which also made Tom Keren and Tim Barkley breathe a sigh of relief.

Perhaps, Chen You can surprise us!

Chen Xiao, who has been watched by the team's two coaches all the time, doesn't care whether there are any surprises or not. He thinks that Du Hong and Boozer are too stupid!

Especially Boozer, Du Hong tried it anyway, Boozer didn't even try it, after receiving Du Hong's pass, he didn't dribble, and didn't give Chen Xiao who posted it any chance to make a move. Without even taking off, he threw the ball directly on his toes.

The most important thing about small defense and big shooting defense is not man marking, but strength, confrontation and height. Chen Xiao's current strength is 60, and there is no enlightenment in confrontation.

Even if the strength is increased by 10 points, he will not be able to prevent Boozer's shots if he is against Enlightenment!

To be reasonable, facing Boozer's shooting, he can only be a target.

Chen Xiao was very upset at this time, and the five Duke University players who trotted back to the defense had their own thoughts.

Carlos, you didn't show it?

Can't show.

Boozer frowned and shook his head, maybe only Chris Duhon understood him at this time.

Boozer and Chris Duhon looked at each other, was it an accident just now?

Or is our offense too different from Jay's?

Defensive player who was a stake to Jay, turned into a wall right in front of us?

The game is still going on, Boozer and Chris Duhon can only keep their doubts in their hearts.

Chen Xiao, who wanted to show himself on the defensive end, didn't get a chance, so Chen Xiao could only focus on the offensive end.

At this time, Jay Williams was actually much more upset than Chen Xiao.

This can be seen from Jay Williams' defense against Chen Xiao.

Jay Williams already had one foul on him.

But Jay Williamson's off-ball defense against Chen Xiao was almost the same as Jordan's off-ball defense against Reggie Miller back then.

Jay Williams, who failed to contribute offensively, put all his energy on the defensive end.

Using both hands and feet, Chen Xiao and Jay Williams once again fought 50-50 on the defensive end.

Chen Ling doesn't care about 50/50, he only cares about catching the ball.

As long as he can catch the ball, he doesn't care about 50-50, even if he is chased and hit.

It can only be said that whether it is an NBA referee or an NCAA referee, it is still rare to catch fouls against this kind of off-ball confrontation.

As long as it's not too much, the referee's eyes are on the strong side with the ball.

This time, Chen Ling was very uncomfortable being entangled by Jay Williams who was holding his breath. Wade couldn't pass the ball to Chen Ling.

Almost following the same example, Wade and Diana picked and rolled, and after switching Chris Duhon in front of him, Wade took two steps inside against Chris Duhon, and made a mid-range shot!

14 to 12!

Marquette outscored again.

Although Chris Duhon is not as strong and tall as Wade, his defense is very good. Wade's mid-range shot seems to be an understatement, but it is actually very difficult.

With Jay Williams choking Chen Xiao on the defensive end regardless of offense, and Duke University players trying to single Chen Xiao frequently frustrated, Marquette University and Duke University after the wave of crazy singles between Chen Xiao and Jay Williams , The offensive end has become more and more team.

After the two teams started to play as a team, the offense did not become easier, but it became more difficult and the efficiency became lower!

Marquette University's offensive contribution efficiency without Wonder Boy will be even lower. After Duke University restricted Jay Williams's singles, other Duke University players have almost never succeeded in singles against Wonder Boy. Every shot is shot against the defender, and the efficiency is even lower than the offensive efficiency of the Marquette University team!

Why can't Duke University single-handedly beat Boy Wonder except for Jay Williams?

Why didn't Marquette University's defense have no loopholes after Jay Williams was singles, and Wonder Boy's defense also didn't have any loopholes!

Is it Boozer, who we have been tracking for several years, Chris Duhon actually does not have NBA-level singles ability, or is it that Jay Williams' singles ability is too strong, making the magical boy who is very good at defense look all Loophole?!

What's going on? What's going on?!

Because no one would believe that a defensive player who was just a thatched cottage suddenly became a bungalow of concrete and steel, so many NBA scouts and experts on the sidelines doubted life.

In short, at the end of one half of the game, Marquette University led Duke University 36 to 34.

Chen Xiao's defense was washed out.

The evaluation of Jay Williams is rising sharply!

And the evaluation of other Duke players is dropping sharply!

The NCAA finals between Marquette University and Duke University ended at halftime, and Marquette University actually led by 2 points at halftime!

The opening match between the Wonder Boy and Jay Williams was supposed to make everyone think that this would be an offensive battle, but unexpectedly, it turned into a defensive battle in the end!

If Chen Xiao and Jay Williams faced off before, it was the fans of Duke University who were crazy.

Well now, at the end of halftime, the ones who feel like they're going crazy are definitely pros supporting Duke!

Except for Jay and Mike, there is actually no Duke player who can tear apart Marquette's defense in singles!

Am I coaching really my Duke?

I'm afraid it's not a fake Duke University!

And among these people, the craziest is definitely Coach K.

It has to be said that after Chen Xiao's defensive problem was solved, Marquette University's defense was really integrated. As long as it didn't meet a super center team, it would be very difficult to penetrate Marquette University's defense!

Perhaps, at this time, the actuaries of the gambling company are crazier than Coach K.

5%! 10%! 15%! 20%! 30%!

Unbelievable, at the end of halftime, Marquette University's winning percentage has reached 45%!

At this time, the Marquette University celebrities in the stands were all shocked!

In fact, many people who bought this game were stunned by the sudden change of situation.

Including those basketball experts at CBS Studios.

Wonder Boy's single defense also has the NBA level!

Marquette University has five players with NBA-level single defense!

Duke University is no match for Marquette University in team defense. Marquette University has an extra offensive player in Wade!

Duke is in danger now!

In this game, Duke University needs Jay Williams to stand up and save them!

The experts in the CBS studio were crazy. In the stands, in the famous Marquette area, Crawford looked at the latest odds, his eyes were shrinking rapidly, and his voice was trembling.

Marquette University's latest winning percentage jumped from 45% to 60%!

At this moment, the celebrities of Marquette University were dumbfounded!

The world seems to have changed at this moment!

But what changed all of this was still the defense of the magical boy!
