NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 73: Difficult Connecticut
Here at USC.
On the field, Gibson and Demar ran to Lian Dao, Gibson excitedly stroking Lian Dao's head, originally Lian Dao resisted others touching his hair.
You must know that Argentine Demon Sword used to be a beautiful boy with fluttering long hair, but since meeting Duncan, his hair has disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye over the years.
When Lian Dao thought of Ginobili's bald head, he especially resisted being touched by others, but thought that everyone would go their separate ways after this season, so he did not stop Gibson's action this time.
This ball was too explosive, and the big screen on the field kept replaying the ball just now.
And on the USC bench, they were waving their towels like crazy with excitement.
"Oh hoo, this guy doesn't look like he's 19 at all."
In the live broadcast, Jeff Van Gundy sighed after watching Lian Dao calmly scored the free throw!
25:16.
"Indeed, but first of all, it is true that he has just passed his 19th birthday within 5 months." Mike Brin looked at his partner and thought that there was something wrong with the age on the data, so he checked the data and it showed that he was indeed 19 years old. .
"Oh, I didn't mean that, don't you think he is very calm? This means his strong mentality adjustment ability!" Even some old NBA clubs can't guarantee that this kind of ball will be calm, but Lian Dao can Adjust the state well and make free throws steadily. This kind of mentality is very mature.
This is also the reason why Jeff feels that Lian Dao doesn't look like a young man.
Well, there is nothing wrong with Jeff being incomprehensible to this, because it is impossible for him to know that there will be rebirth in this world, and as he grows older, his experience will increase accordingly, and his mentality will become more and more stable. What's more, Lian Dao is still a man of two generations, no matter how big the waves are, can he compare with rebirth?
"Did he take psychology as an elective like Duncan?" Mike Brin felt that Lian Dao had a maturity beyond his age when he heard his partner say this.
Duncan is one of the players with the best mentality in the NBA. As the old background of the Spurs, his mentality has never had a problem on the court.
Stability and calmness are the reasons why Duncan's nickname "Stone Buddha" came from, and of course there is also "Speaking and Gou Smiling"!
While they were talking, UConn replaced a new backup center: Gavin Edwards.
Gavin Edwards is a backup center for the University of Connecticut, with a height of 206cm and a weight of 106kg.
Slow movement, poor inside scoring ability, only inside dunks, no mid-range shooting ability.
This is why Jim Calhoun really had no choice but to replace him.
For Lian Dao, this guy is delivering food.
Compared with Hashim, it is really far behind.
But I didn't expect that after Hashim went down, their outside shots were opened. Kemba Walker and AJ Price fired from the outside and hit three-pointers one after another. Mal hits a quick stop mid-range.
This wave of University of Southern California has not widened the score, but also allowed the opponent to catch up by two points.
31:24.
UConn offense.
When Southern California returned to defense, Gibson, Lian Dao and Vucevic changed defenders again.
Lian Dao returned to the third position to defend, Gibson returned to the fourth position, and Vucevic returned to the fifth position.
Now Vucevic can suppress the opposing center even if he returns to the fifth position.
This defensive method can limit the opponent's perimeter players for USC.
There's nothing wrong with that switch, but the sudden switch caused confusion among USC's defensive lineup.
The opponent caught the loophole in several consecutive rounds and scored the ball.
It has to be said that UConn grasped the timing of the loopholes really well, and their rich experience prevented them from being confused because of Hashim's fate.
Instead, they seized Southern California's defensive loopholes and played a wave of 10:4.
35:34.
USC has only one point advantage.
Tim quickly called a timeout, and if he didn't call a timeout, he would have been overtaken by the University of Connecticut.
"We're playing a 3-2 zone defense this time, and sickle will help defend Kemba Walker more!"
Lian Dao nodded, he thought that Tim would be furious this time, wasting a great advantage.
Tim actually knew that there was nothing wrong with Lian Dao's defense change on the court. He should have proposed to change defense when Lian Dao served before.
However, he wanted to take advantage of Lian Dao's inside advantage, and he didn't expect that the opponent's outside players would suddenly exert their strength.
As a result, there was confusion in Southern California's defense change, and the opponent seized the opportunity!
After Tim determined the defensive goals and offensive tactics with everyone, the timeout time was basically gone.
After returning, Lian Dao hit a three-pointer from the outside under the cover of Gibson.
38:34.
But after coming back, AJ Price broke through to the basket and fouled Vucevic for a layup.
Vucevic is still inexperienced. After AJ Price's breakthrough, a fake layup made Vucevic jump up.
Then AJ Price took off directly against Vucevic's body, and his hand naturally touched his arm for a layup.
Fortunately, Vucevic's weight and height advantage distorted AJ Price's layup posture, otherwise the ball would have been scored 2+1.
AJ Price made both free throws.
38:36.
Now the University of Southern California has an inside rebounding advantage. When USC is attacking here, Lian Dao still calls the pick-and-roll and still shoots three-pointers from the outside.
"brush!"
The sound of a three-pointer passing through the net is very charming.
41:36.
And next, AJ Price passes the ball to Kemba Walker from the outside.
Lian Dao stepped forward to double-team with Daniel.
Good guy, you don't double-team so many team bosses, you just mess with me, a rookie in the first grade.
Sudden double-teaming, UU reading www. uukanshu.com also surprised Kemba Walker. Although his breakthrough ability is very good, Kemba Walker's passing ability in his freshman year was not as good as later.
Faced with double-teaming, Kemba Walker chose to pass the ball to Jerome.
But Lian Dao had already noticed his intention to pass the ball, and cut the ball directly when he passed the ball.
All Southern California fast break.
This time Lian Dao didn't choose to pass the ball, but ran with the ball all the way.
He received the ball directly within the three-point line and took three steps. Jerome watched Lian Dao charge like a tank, and did not dare to step forward to block Lian Dao's dunk.
The one who stepped forward to stop him was still sitting on the bench to practice, he didn't want to be the second background board in the audience!
"boom!"
It was another violent dunk. Lian Dao's dunk was not as stretched as Carter's dunk, but what was definitely not lacking was a sense of domineering power.
If you use the words of the fans to describe it: brutal!
43:36.
This hearty defensive counterattack made all the Southern California fans excited.
Abby, looking at the domineering Lian Dao on the field, jumped up excitedly and screamed loudly.
As an old father, Jeff Hornacek did not have the slightest smile on his face.
Because he discovered that in this game, his precious daughter's eyes were on the USC player wearing the No. 1 jersey.
As long as he scores a goal, the baby girl will definitely cheer and scream.
When he reached the finals back then, his 3-year-old baby daughter was not as happy as his current daughter.
Jeff Hornacek had mixed feelings in his heart, as if the cabbage that had been raised for many years was about to be crushed by something.
This made Jeff Hornacek look at Lian Dao on the field very badly.
