Strong Offense and Defense

"That is, every time Reece asks you to pass the ball, you pass it. Because Reece calls you by your Chinese name." Ewing replied, "You are very insensitive to your English name 'Alan'!"

Nie Chuan suddenly realized and nodded: "Oh! So that's how it is!"

Ewing pointed at Carlo with his thumb: "So this guy asked the Chinese student to read your Chinese name and record it in his mobile phone. He has to read it many times every night before going to bed! Just so that you can pass the ball to him more. Let him perform!"

Carlo bumped Ewing with his elbow: "Hey! Don't spread rumors!"

"I spread rumors? Why don't you take out your phone and let's check it?"

"Why should I check your phone!" Carlo's face turned red suspiciously.

Ewing whispered in Nie Chuan's ear and said, "Although he recorded Chinese, he still couldn't save his desperate pronunciation. If I hadn't discovered and corrected him in time, he would not call you 'Nie Chuan' now, but You 'Ni Jun'."

Nie Chuan laughed immediately, and his nervousness was relieved by [-]%!

"Nie Chuan, nervousness is actually a good thing." Heishan patted him on the shoulder, "It will make you more focused on the field. If a person is not nervous about the game, it is impossible to win."

"I see, thank you, Montenegro!" Nie Chuan touched his fists.

At this time, the three commentators of the game had already started chatting.

Engli, a professional commentator in a suit, covered his chest and said, "Oh my God, it's another crazy March! Every year at this time, I myself feel younger! Today's two The teams are udk and usn. Let’s talk about usn first. They performed well in the regular season. Five main players entered the finals in last year’s regular season. It’s just a pity that last year’s usn failed in the first game I encountered KSU, where Raven Harvey is, and did not enter the top 32. But in general, the five main players have experience in the finals."

The commentator Espison nodded: "That's true. And the strength of the five main players of USN is very average, the defensive ability of the perimeter is strong, and they are good at defense. Robert, what do you think of Udk?"

Retired star Robert smiled and touched his ears: "When I was still in the college basketball team, I often encountered udk in the finals. At that time, it was the most glorious era of udk. Their black jerseys made them called ' kingofblack'. Thanks to them, I never won a championship in college."

The other two commentators couldn't help laughing.

Robert continued: "From the perspective of the game lineup, Udk is really strong, and their opponent USN will be in a tough fight. There is center Blake, nicknamed 'Black Mountain', under the basket. His jumping ability, explosive power, and blocking ability Absolutely top-notch. If I were the owner of an nba team, I would put my eyes on this center. I am looking forward to the finals, what kind of rebounding ability Montenegro can show. In addition, their big Forward Carlo Brandon is very good at both offense and defense. Although he is not small, he has the flexibility that ordinary centers do not have. DK also has Ewing, a high-level shooter, on the perimeter. If If you want to weaken DK's scoring ability, you must look at the point position Ewing. You must know that at the critical moment of the game, three-pointers are not funny."

Espison and Engley nodded in agreement.

The commentator Engley added: "Why don't you talk about udk's scoring ace Reece Reddington? Last year's top five rookies should shine again this year."

Robert covered his eyes and smiled helplessly: "From a technical point of view, I can't think of other words to describe Rhys Reddington except for 'perfect'. This is why I try to avoid commenting on him. He is very special, Whether it is the sense of strength of dribbling the ball, the control of scoring timing and his superb ability to stay in the air, he is a strong player even in the air. If the basketball team is compared to an aircraft carrier, then Rees Reddington is definitely a ship-borne missile Level. Countless NBA teams extended olive branches to him in last year's game, but his reaction was very calm. This year, I really want to know if he can bring more surprises than last year."

The commentator Espinson snapped his fingers: "I think, probably, he will not go to the NBA until the rhythm of college basketball games can no longer satisfy Reddington. But if Redding If it is a carrier-based missile, don’t forget about the carrier-based aircraft, which integrates early warning and attack.”

"Ah!" Engley shook his finger, with a deep smile on his lips, "It is indeed. I still remember the performance of udk's point guard Connor last year. He was flexible and able to judge the scene very maturely, dk This kid contributed a lot to being able to enter the Elite Eight. But it is a pity that he withdrew from udk. I also want to know if the new face who replaced Connor this year can adapt to the rhythm of the finals."

Engli looked at the black-haired young man on the field. He was wearing a black jersey belonging to DK, and he was adjusting his breathing with puffed cheeks.

Both Espison and Robert looked at Engley with surprised eyes: "Oh, man, so you don't know him! He and Rhys Reddington are the most anticipated scoring combination selected by College Sports Weekly this year !"

"Really? That kid? He should be participating in the ncaa for the first time. He looks very nervous!" Engley said.

"Well, don't underestimate that kid! He has a lot of mifensi. His name is the one that appears most often in Chinese in college sports magazines now!" Espenson replied.

Engli touched his chin: "Okay, then let me see what kind of surprises this child can bring! By the way, will the audience feel that this is a well-designed line?"

Robert also joked, rummaging around in his pockets on purpose: "Oh, I forgot my lines card!"

Espenson also joined in the joke: "Did you give Engley your line card? He seems to have finished your commentary!"

Then the three laughed.

With the start of the game, the atmosphere of the audience entered another heated vortex.

The players from both sides had already appeared on the field. Nie Chuan raised his face, his breath squeezed in his throat.

Montenegro and the opponent's center were ready to jump the ball. Nie Chuan slightly lowered his center of gravity, ready to catch the ball and start running at any time.

Sure enough, when he concentrated, all the voices seemed to fade away, and his thoughts became extremely clear.

As the ball began to fall at the highest point, Montenegro jumped up, his jump height was at least half a palm higher than the opponent's!

"Oh——" the breath of the audience was pulled up by him.

Montenegro slammed the racket down, and Nie Chuan quickly dribbled the ball and ran.

In the auditorium, the international students frantically waved the banner with Nie Chuan's name on it.

He didn't give his opponent time to react, but in an instant he passed the opponent's two guards and rushed to the three-point line. Just as he was about to take off, the opponent's power forward jumped up, but Nie Chuan calmly passed the ball Retracted and sent to the other side, Ewing, who was outside the three-point line, was about to jump and shoot at any time after receiving the ball.

The opponent's small forward rushed towards him, but Ewing passed the opponent with a feint and passed the ball back to Nie Chuan.

Nie Chuan rushed to the basket after receiving the ball, and was about to score a shot under the defense of the opponent's center.

Everyone is looking forward to, is the first goal of this game going to be won like this?

But Nie Chuan took the ball back and accelerated again, bypassing the opponent, laying up sideways, and sending the ball into the basket.

"Nie Chuan! Nie Chuan! Nie Chuan!"

There were shouts on the field.

"Oh..." Engri, who said he didn't know Nie Chuan before, showed a surprised expression, "This kid is really fast! The balance in the air is not bad either!"

"You can search the Internet. It seems that there is also a video of him and Rees fighting against the combination of Owen and Ralvin. Although the picture quality is not very clear, this kid's level is definitely not just what you just saw." Love Spinson raised his chin, "One of my colleagues has high expectations for this kid from the East."

At this time, Nie Chuan had quickly returned to his defensive position. USN was closing in on the whole line. The opponent's point guard was facing Nie Chuan's one-on-one defense. The only thing I know is that he caught up with the ball quickly, stealing it before the opponent, and quickly took the ball away.

Nie Chuan ran wildly, and his teammates quickly followed. The fast attack reaction speed of the entire dk was completely adjusted.

This round of offensive coordination was more neat and concise than the previous round. Reese quickly cut to the basket. Facing the double defense, Nie Chuan directly used his best long pass to pass through the waists of the two players.Originally, such a passing speed could easily lead to mistakes, but Reece seemed to have predicted Nie Chuan's passing line long ago, received the ball steadily, and dunked without any suspense.

There was another exclamation on the field.

Nie Chuan and Reese quickly returned to their positions after high-fiving, and the game continued.

However, it is not easy for usn to enter the finals, and it is impossible to allow such points as udk.

Their defense became tighter, and it was clear that their goal was to control the gap before the end of the first quarter.

USN even sent two players to defend Nie Chuan.

It was Nie Chuan catching the ball again. His mind was full of the movement of all the players on the field. Well, if you want to win, win it and be more arrogant!

Nie Chuan swayed his shoulders suddenly, but he didn't pass the opponent's defenders, but he changed direction twice in a row, followed by an emergency stop and accelerated again, passing directly between the two defenders , Such ball control and execution made the three commentators on the scene forget to speak.

Nie Chuan made a quick cut, and encountered double siege from the opponent's power forward and center at the basket. He decisively passed the ball to the ground, and Rees received the ball.

The audience was boiling instantly, and the opponent's power forward turned to defend Rees, but it was already a full step, and Rees had already taken off and scored.

His shooting speed is fast and his body is stable. From the moment he takes the shot, people are sure that he will score.

In this regard, the difference between dk and sn has been pulled to double digits.

This section of the game is over, and everyone returned to their seats.

Everyone added water.

"Great job. Especially Nie Chuan, I was worried that you would have the same hands and feet when you participated in the competition for the first time!"

Nie Chuan laughed.

"If you have the same hands and feet, Carlo will be more likely!" Ewing joked.

Carlo wanted to pat the back of Ewing's head in dissatisfaction, but Ewing stared at him. Carlo's hand froze in mid-air for a while, then retracted and touched the back of his head.

"Okay, kids, in the next quarter, SN's defense will be tighter. Unlike before, Nie Chuan's speed and ball-handling ability are very new to them, but the reason why they can enter the top 64 is that Their adaptability is absolutely top-notch. So Nie Chuan, listen carefully, what I want you to do is to contain their defensive center of gravity. We must retreat the scoring line and focus on the three-second zone, not the basket. Next. And, I know that you and Reece have a high tacit understanding, and Ewing too, but don't forget to show everyone the scoring ability of Montenegro and Carlo."

"Of course!" Nie Chuan nodded.

At the beginning of the second half, as coach Gordon expected, the defense of the entire USN was like a fortress.

For Nie Chuan, the two people who defended him only needed to make good use of the time difference in changing directions, but the closer he was to the basket, the less room he had to move, so the best way was to solve it from a distance!

When Nie Chuan entered the three-second zone, Heishan and Carlo cut in tacitly, occupying a favorable position under the basket. When Reese and Ewing approached Nie Chuan one after the other, USN felt the deep pressure. They want to prevent Reese's breakthrough and Ewing's three-pointer outside the line, and the most direct way is to cut off from Nie Chuan.When they got close to Nie Chuan, the corners of Nie Chuan's lips raised, and he sent the ball to the basket chicly. Montenegro caught the ball, turned around and took off. The opponent's center thought he was going to score. Who knew it was just a fake move by Montenegro. He passed the ball back to Nie Chuan.

At this time, Nie Chuan was one step closer to the basket. USN tightened up its defense, but Nie Chuan still took off.

Is it shooting or passing?

This is a problem that crashes usn.

The ball was shot, but it was obviously impossible to get into the basket, and it was impossible for Nie Chuan to make such a mistake at Nie Chuan's level.

At this moment, Kahlo jumped up, caught the ball in the air and dunked the ball into the basket.

Extraordinary strength.

The impact of this ball will shake usn's confidence.

"I have to say that the overall strength of DK and the tacit understanding of the team have risen to another level compared with last year." Espison made no secret of his appreciation.
