Chapter 22: The Little Fat Man Called Delong
The Trojans host the University of Illinois in a high-profile battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
One side is the three rookies of USC's new rise, and the other side is the University of Illinois Three Musketeers who broke out suddenly this year, everyone thinks that the Three Musketeers of the University of Illinois are stronger, but a generation of new people replaces the old ones, and it is impossible to say who will be more powerful in the future.
Last year's University of Illinois Three Musketeers weren't very strong, but this year it suddenly exploded, and the two sophomores and Di Blanc together formed the most terrifying trio at the University of Illinois.
At the top of the University of Illinois draft list is Deron Williams, who looks a little chubby, but the core of the team is DeBlanc now.
At the beginning of the game, Sean was facing DeBrown.
Di Brown is famous, with excellent breakouts and shooting, and good playmaking, which can be said to be on par with Sean, if not a little more experienced.
But as soon as the two were in pairs, Sean sensed that something was wrong.
Di Brown is not as good as he imagined, Di Brown's physical confrontation is very average, and when Sean uses his body to fight, he actually has a certain upper hand.
On the other side, the little fat man played against Nick Yang, but he had the upper hand.
This little fat man named Delon is very sharp in breakthrough and has excellent physical fitness, his position is point guard, but because of Di Bron, he plays point guard, but on the court, both are equivalent to two-way guards, and Di Bron's ball is heavier.
Shooting guards, defensive point guards, are inherently a bit of an advantage, but ...... Nick Young turned out to be no match for the little fat man like Deron Williams.
That's embarrassing.
The little fat man's breakthrough is very sharp, it can almost be treated as a basketball tutorial, and the shooting is more standard, more terrifying, but Delon's passing is excellent, which surprises Sean.
Of the four most famous guards in the NCAA right now, Sean is the last and the last in the draft, while in front are Delong, the little fat man, Wake Forest, and the point guard in North Carolina.
Sean has always felt that he is underestimated because of his small fame and few games, but when he saw DeLong, Sean felt that this little fat man was really powerful.
Nick Young is down on the defensive end, but still sharp on the offensive end.
The Trojans and the University of Illinois played hard, and neither had the upper hand.
But when Sean came off the court and came off the bench, the difference between the two sides quickly widened, and the bench at the University of Illinois was even more powerful, and the players who came off the bench were very good, compared to USC, which lacked a lot.
After eight minutes off the bench, USC fell behind across the board.
Five minutes into the second half, Sean came on again.
Di Blan's defense is good, but it is obviously not the level of a defensive striker, and the pressure on Sean is not strong, and Sean began to take the initiative to attack at the beginning of the second half.
Gabe had an advantage under the basket, so after Sean hit a three-pointer from the outside, he successfully broke through and drew the attention of the defense. Sean then assists Nick Young and Gabe to score.
USC quickly equalized.
At this time, the University of Illinois changed the formation again, and the player opposite Sean became Deron the Fat Man, and DeBron played against Nick Young.
The University of Illinois attacked, DeBron gave Delon a screen, and Sean switched to defend Delon on the offense.
DeLong made a stop-and-go breakaway, went to the basket to draw the defense and then passed, and DeBrown scored on a jumper.
DeLong's breakthrough is very sharp, Sean is under a lot of pressure to defend, and Di Brown is not strong in the confrontation, but the shooting is really not enough, and the mid-range shooting is a solid mess.
DeBron's draft expectations weren't good, but in the NCAA, DeBron's performance was the best of the two teams.
After DeLong attacked with the ball, he attracted the defense, and Di Brown received the ball and shot, could break through, could pass the ball, and performed very well.
The Trojans couldn't defend at all, whether it was Nick Young or Shaun, they were helpless against Di Blan, plus Luther Gordon, the three musketeers worked together, and the Trojans who fought hard in the second half were overwhelmed.
On their home turf, the Trojans lost without any suspense.
Sean flew up with a three-pointer in the middle, 1 of 5, and completely became an undercover agent, and Nick Young scored a few goals, but there was no possibility of saving the situation.
And the result of this game was also expected by all the media.
After the game, Coach John was interviewed:
"It's not something we can't accept to lose, we're a new team, all three of our core are freshmen, I don't think the University of Illinois was any better than us last year, and we're very confident about the future, the boys are doing really well and I'm very proud of them."
Coach John's comments speak for almost everyone's attitude.
The California media, and pretty much all of them, have that attitude, and as freshmen, the USC Trojans have been good enough.
Last year, when the University of Illinois Three Musketeers weren't yet formed, Deron Williams and Rutherhead weren't as good as the Trojans this year.
However, that night, Sean still stayed on the basketball court to practice.
Sean is accompanied by Gabe and Nick Young.
Bang! Bang! Bang......
It wasn't until the evening when the restaurant was about to run out of food that Nick Young dragged Sean to the restaurant to eat, it was still a very unpalatable nutritious meal, but Sean didn't feel anything when he ate it.
This nutritious meal is really useful, eggs, medium-rare beef, boiled chicken, fruits, these things are very good for athletes.
Sean's strength and speed have greatly increased in recent months, and he has a great advantage in point guard.
In the face of most point guards, Sean has an urge to force it with strength, and it is only because he promised his mother not to get hurt that Sean held back.
"Sean, it seems that your meal has increased again."
After Nick Young finished eating, he looked at Sean who had eaten plate after plate of rice, and couldn't help but say, Gabe also put down the dishes and nodded.
Among the three, Gabe is the insider, the largest in weight and height, so he also eats the most, but now Gabe's amount of food is not as good as Sean's, and Sean eats too much every day.
"Maybe it's because I'm growing taller now!"
Sean did not explain in detail, Sean's height was not low before, but in the past six months, the team's nutritionists and physical trainers have trained Sean professionally, and Sean's height has grown in a swish.
Nick Young is also growing taller, from 195 to 199 every year, and according to the nutritionist's speculation, it can rise by another centimeter or two, but Sean has risen from 186cm to 195cm this year, and Sean's height is already very tall in point guards.
In the last game, in the face of Deron Shaun's direct three-point shot, Delong's defense effect was not good, but Sean's three-point shooting level was not good, so he pitted the team.
In fact, judging from the height difference between the two, Sean directly singled DeLong to shoot three points, which is already an extremely appropriate way to score.
