Chapter Twenty-Nine: Opening Suppression
Sean's proposal was quickly approved. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because Sean is now 197cm tall, this height can play small forward, and Redick in the defensive scoring guard position is the most suitable.
Shaun doesn't have much of a disadvantage at all, except for his inferior strength.
Facing Redick seems to be Sean's very arrogant choice, but Sean also has his own plans.
Redick's strengths and weaknesses are very prominent, for Sean, Redick's explosiveness is seriously lacking, and his strength is also weak, Sean will have an advantage in defense, and it can be said that he completely restrains Redick. Redick's off-ball play would frustrate Nick Young, but for Sean, it's okay to use his speed to keep up close.
Of course, Sean still has an unspoken thought.
It's too difficult to defeat Duke University by relying on serious methods, so if Sean defeats Redick, the core of Duke University, things will take a turn for the better.
That's what Sean thought.
March 26th.
Houston Rockets Toyota Sports Center.
Duke University Blues vs. USC Trojans.
Duke University is on the East Coast of the United States, while USC is on the West Coast of the United States, which is too far away, so the location of the two teams playing in the central city of Houston in the United States.
Texas has two well-known NBA powerhouses, the Dallas Mavericks and the Houston Rockets.
And for Sean, the most special thing is that the Rockets have a famous NBA Chinese Yao Ming, especially Yao Ming who became famous in the United States after Charles Barkley's bet on the ass of a donkey, the Great Wall of Oriental Mobile, and the Chinese Yao became a symbol of China in the United States.
Before the start of the game, Yao Ming sat at the front of the game and greeted Sean.
Yao Ming was very polite, with the inherent humility of Chinese, and very sensible to greet in English, but the next moment, Sean came out in fluent Mandarin and startled Yao Ming.
"Do you speak Chinese?"
Yao Ming was a little surprised.
Sean smiled:
"Of course, there are a lot of Chinese communities in San Francisco, and I live with my grandparents and speak Mandarin since I was a child." Sean's Mandarin is a little weird, with an accent from the northern Central Plains, but there is no problem with normal communication.
"Come on, Duke's not easy to deal with."
"Thank you, I will."
After a brief greeting, Sean walked onto the pitch to warm up.
Beside Yao Ming, Morey, the general manager of the Houston Rockets, smiled, looked closely at Sean who walked over, and showed a meaningful smile.
Choosing Yao Ming is Morey's best decision, this champion brings hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue to Houston every year, and Yao Ming's strength is also very amazing, and he is completely worthy of this champion sign.
"This Chinese kid, I don't know what it's worth?"
……
Also at the Toyota Arena, many scouts were watching the game, and had pens and notebooks ready to take notes at any time.
The NCAA knockout tournament will truly be an all-round player of strength.
Draft rankings vary greatly depending on play-out performance.
Several of the Duke and USC players were highly valued, so most teams sent scouts over to record the whole process.
The jump ball begins.
Duke's center jumped instantly, the jump ball was successful, Gabe reacted a little slower, the bounce was a little slower, and the first ball Duke attacked.
Sean didn't play against the point guard on the opposite side, but followed Redick closely.
Wren follows Duke's point guard, while Nick Young follows small forward, which is USC's defensive arrangement. Wren is fast, but weak, and has poor defense, a little lower than Sean in terms of height, while Nick Young is tall enough to defend small forwards.
Redick ran off the ball, the power forward covered and Sean was a step behind.
Sean crossed the power forward to catch up, but Redick was a reverse run, but he instantly opened up the distance, and Sean immediately increased his speed when he saw this.
Redick catches the ball and jumps straight from beyond the three-point line to shoot.
At this moment, Sean made a judgment, did not hesitate, and jumped up directly.
After the ankle injury was healed, Sean had never accelerated and jumped with all his might, and this time he accelerated violently, and it felt as if he was about to fly.
Sou!
Redick shot the basketball, and when he just shot, Sean's body was already flying, and with a snap, Sean made a full block and then accelerated to get the basketball after landing on the ground.
Redick counter-grabs, Sean breaks through with a behind-the-back dribble.
The Trojans attacked, Sean did not wait for his teammates to be in place, because if his teammates were in place, the opponent's defense was also in place, and while no one was there, Sean accelerated directly and made a successful layup.
On the first ball, Sean made a beautiful block, blocking Redick's shot and making a successful layup.
Duke offense.
In the second ball, the Duke University point guard passed to the power forward, and the power forward was defended by Gabe and passed to the center, and the center was stared at by Niedale and forced to shoot, and the basketball was played after the basket was ironed and the basket was scrambling for rebounds.
The rebounds were shot in the chaos, and Sean rushed to grab the rebounds in a timely manner, but most of the energy in this game, as the team's defensive spearhead, was focused on Redick.
Redick rushed up to grab the rebound, and after pretending to break through, he made a pullup jump shot.
Sean held out his hand to interfere as much as he could.
Storm's shot was almost in, but the basketball bounced and popped up again, and Niedale got the rebound. USC Offensive.
In the first two goals, the Trojans defended successfully.
Or rather, Sean defended successfully.
USC attacked, Sean looked at Redick in front of him and wanted to shoot directly, but Redick just followed and didn't give Sean a chance to shoot.
Reddick is 190 tall and Sean is 197, and this height difference can get a good shot if Sean is fast enough.
But Sean's shooting was still not good enough, and the shooting percentage was not high.
A good opening can't be ruined in the hands of your own wayward shooting.
Sean said hello, Nick Young came to block and dismantle, Sean broke through, attacked the basket with the ball, and after attracting the defense, Sean threw it back without looking at anyone.
Nick Young received the ball and flew up for a dunk.
Rumble!
“unbelievable!!!”
“nolookpass!!!”
"I swear it's a good shot, USC Sean, remember the name, I think it's going to be a really good point guard, don't forget if you need a point guard, I swear to God, this pass is going to be one of the best passes of the round."
……
The commentary bench, the media and scouts all showed excitement.
After a tacit understanding, Sean and Nick Young bumped their chests to celebrate.
Sean has been complaining about this celebration for a long time, isn't it good to give a high-five or something, but many blacks like this more passionate expression of defense, and Nick Young likes to hit his chest after a subtle fit.
Well, this collaboration doesn't have much to do with Nick Young.
After Sean practiced Tongzigong, one of the biggest advantages was that his perception was enhanced, even if he didn't turn his head to look, he could feel that there were people on both sides defending and someone following behind.
And that person is Nick Young.
This feeling is often referred to by many as ball quotients, or broad vision.
Among the NCAA point guards, there are two people who are excellent in this regard, one has played against Delon, but Delon has done a relatively average job, and the other is the core point guard of Wake Forest University named Chris Paul, who is the most demonic.
