Chapter 408: Suffocating Defense
The Oregon team's offense is very organized, the ball is moving fast, but it is not chaotic at all, and their players are also very good, with tacit cooperation, full of confidence, everyone dares to play, everyone can play, and UCLA feels a lot of pressure. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The first half played five minutes, the score was 12:10, and UCLA led by 2 points.
The shooting percentage of both sides was high in these minutes, but the University of Oregon played more organized, and four of the five people on the court scored points, which can be said to be more blossoming.
And UCLA's side is a bit single, Chen Feng scored 4 points, Charles scored 4 points, Austin deceived the opponent into a big foul, and relied on the serve to get two points, this is all their score.
Compared with Oregon, UCLA can obviously only rely on the two cores of Charles and Chen Feng, and although the others are also very active, they are a little unable to perform.
"Worthy of Oregon, this defense is really suffocating. Coach Karl frowned.
The reason why everyone else in the team except Chen Feng and Charles did not play well was actually because Oregon's defense was too strong.
Oregon adopts a man-to-man defense, which requires everyone on the court to have considerable defensive ability and be able to change defenses quickly when dealing with pick-and-rolls, fast enough, timely enough, and able to limit the opponent after the switch.
It can be said that the man-to-man tactics are very demanding on the team, especially in games at the level of the NCAA, once there are loopholes, it is easy to be caught.
But Oregon did a great job, every player on their team was very good, and there were no obvious weaknesses, so they didn't scare anyone.
In addition, they rotate quickly, are generally tall, and are in excellent physical condition. So even if the UCLA block is misplaced, it can't be easily played. That is, Chen Feng and Charles, the two can fight their opponents alone with their own personal ability.
As for Austin, Renard, Douglas, they were stared at too much.
"Austin. Chen Feng shouted, broke through and gave the ball to Austin, and Austin took the ball and pulled it up and threw it.
Unfortunately, the ball was slightly off, and the basketball bounced out of the frame, and the Oregon team got the rebound, and quickly launched a counterattack and fast attack.
Oregon team scoring guard Marcus held the ball and advanced quickly, and the organization guard Steven and power forward Randle also quickly followed, Marcus first distributed the ball to Steven, Steven passed to Randle, and Randle took the ball and flew up in three steps.
"Get out of here!" Charles jumped up quickly, waving his big fan-like hand like an angry King Kong, trying to give Randall a big hat.
Unexpectedly, Randle took the ball and smashed it directly on the rebound.
With a whoosh, a figure rose into the air, but it was Marcus, who jumped up from the other side quickly, and it was directly an empty catch!
"Bang ......"
The huge sound made the fans at the scene crazy, and tens of thousands of people jumped up, cheered loudly, and felt the blood boiling.
"Ah......" Marcus was also very excited, roared loudly, and waved his arm fiercely, causing the fans to go even more crazy.
"At 12:12, the score was tied. Chen Feng glanced at the scoreboard, and couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart, Oregon was more powerful than he imagined. Especially with the opposition defence, even he had to put in more physical effort than ever before to be able to score.
This also made his physical exertion extraordinarily large.
"Toot ......"
Coach Karl called a timeout.
When the players came to the sidelines, Carl didn't say anything, the situation was not the player's fault, but because the opponent was too strong, so Carl just nodded, quickly took out the tactical board, and began to arrange: "The opponent's defense is something we have never encountered, we can't be in a hurry in the face of such a team, we must have enough patience and play the attack we should have." ”
The UCLA players listened and nodded.
Karl makes a lot of sense, the more you encounter this kind of team, the more you can't panic, you have to be patient.
'Wait a minute we're going to spread out a little bit and we're going to make the opposition tired with quick passes, and we can move the opposition players to the periphery. "Again, be patient, try to play as much time as possible every time you attack, and if the opponent is moved to the outside, then give the ball to Charles." Charles has an advantage on the inside and we can take advantage of that. ”
"And ......"
Soon, Carl was set, the timeout was over, and everyone was back on the field.
UCLA offense.
Chen Feng advanced to the front court with the ball, passed the ball to Douglas, Douglas made a gesture to throw, and after a false shake, it passed to Renard, who passed to Austin...... The ball was passed between several people and played exactly according to the tactics laid out by Coach Karl.
However, the University of Oregon suddenly changed its defensive strategy, no longer a simple man-to-man, to a mix of man-to-man and zonal defense. That is, to adopt a man-to-man strategy for Chen Fenghe, and to adopt a regional joint defense for others, and at the same time shrink the inside line, thus limiting Charles and making him unable to one-on-one.
This change fell into Carl's eyes, which suddenly made Carl's face change, he couldn't help but look at Coach Brant in Oregon, and scolded in his heart: "This old thing has been prepared for a long time, damn it!"
Oregon's defense managed to limit UCLA, and the ball finally hit Charles, who tried to pass the ball with the help of the opponent, but was cut off by the opponent.
Charles's passing intention was too obvious in this ball, after all, the offensive time was almost up, and he didn't have too many options, so he was easily judged by the opponent to pass the route, quickly broke it, and quickly handed it to Steven, and launched a fast attack.
Steven took the lead and flew to the UCLA half.
"Defend yourself. Chen Feng shouted, turned around and chased, caught up with Steven in a few steps, and intercepted Steven.
But at that moment, Steven grinned and pushed the ball forward.
"What?" Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, then reacted, turned around and shouted, "Be careful of the empty catch under the basket!"
It's a pity that after all, it was a little late, Marcus had already quickly hit the free throw line, jumped up, caught the ball in the air, and was another empty dunk!
The loud sound detonated the whole stadium, like a hammer, hammering hard into the hearts of UCLA players, making them feel a wave of suffocation and pain.
Carl's face was also ugly, and he couldn't help but sigh: "This is the way Oregon is good at playing, their fast attack counterattack is really powerful, and it is unguardable." ”
