Chapter 276: The Second Half
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first quarter, the UConn players all had a look of "finally over" on their faces, even if their hearts were as strong as Ray Allen's face was heavy, 45:22! This score is a humiliation for the University of Connecticut, and it is an honor for Wake Forest University, and no one is willing to be a background board, which is the determination of the University of Connecticut. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Just when the University of Connecticut made up their minds and was ready to fight to the end, Wake Forest was full of laughter, watching the starting five play so heartily and so enjoyable, Allen, Mitsui and others were also ready to move, and it was a live broadcast on TV in the United States, and it was the college debut, and the mood of the newcomer group was also hot.
In the first quarter, the seniors of the team have set a good example, and they have never fallen out of the 6th floor in total hits. As the main attacker, Duncan is the peak of the shooting percentage of the players on both teams - 0.91, shooting 10 of 11 from mid-range, and also earning 2 free throws and hitting all of them, scoring 22 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in only 20 minutes of play; His interior partner Wallace also performed well today, with 6 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal; Rodgers, the team's only professional three-point player, 8 points, 1 assist, 1 block; Jackson, an outside breaker, 6 points, 3 assists, 3 steals, 1 block; Billups, the outside brain, 3 points, 2 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks, Wake Forest's shot is really not ordinary.
Compared to Connecticut, it's a little chilling, and only Ray Allen is the only one who has passed the 5th floor, but he is not Reggie himself, even if he is really Reggie Miller himself, he may not be able to play a 5 against these five people, even if they are only sophomores and little radish heads at this time. After seeing such a real slaughter, there is no reason why the first-year newborn calf is not enthusiastic, there is no reason not to be excited, you must know that the difference between the two sides in the team competition is not really big, even if everyone stays hard and does not completely play, their side still loses more and wins less, but no matter how much the score difference is lost, the defensive general Patterson is excited, the three-point Mitsui Shou is excited, and Iverson is also beginning to have a golden light. Even if Ma.jian, who has now changed his style and started from a blue-collar worker, he can't help but be red at this time, not for anything else: there are soft persimmons, don't pinch white, don't pinch white.

"Rodman, did you see it, Wake Forest is going to be on the bench!" The TNT commentator said loudly in surprise, obviously the main player in the opening game was substituted in the half of the half, Wake Forest, are you playing a little big!
"I have to say that Dave is quite interesting, I like him a little!" Rodman said excitedly for fear that the world would not be chaotic.
Wake Forest's move is clearly to despise the Connecticut weak chickens, and it only takes half the time to beat you, and each is really hinting and humiliating.
"Uh." The TNT commentator was a little unaware of Rodman's straightforward statement that he liked such and such a man, and he was speechless for a while, but he ate this bowl of rice after all, and his quick wit was not bad.
"Rodman, do you think the current Wake Forest is a bit of the Michigan Five Tigers?"
"Well, how can I say... In my opinion, the Michigan Five are not as good as the current Wake Forest, not only in terms of statistics, but also in terms of physical skills, ball quotient and future potential, the Michigan Five are far behind. Rodman thought for a moment before continuing.
"Is it because Chris is in the NBA?"
"Not only that, but there is also a gap in the point guard, Wake Forest is so special as a point guard, he doesn't care about his stats, maybe he only cares about how to help the team win more easily, just now you also saw that he only shot once, or a whistle ball, what is he doing at other times? He's playing for Duncan, or rather, the team's low-key offensive space, and he's stalking UConn's point guard, his setter and pass are concise and efficient. By the way, I'm going to retract what I just said, he's more selfless than Isaiah, of course, I'm not saying he's selfish, but his style of play is really a bit excessive, and he smells of drumming and sublime. Rodman said with a complicated expression as he pondered the words.
"Indeed, looking at the situation, Wake Forest is stronger this year than last year, and now the focus is not on whether Connecticut can succeed in the raid, but on how well Jordan is in Asia."
"That's right, I'm here for today!" Rodman also had an interested look on his face.

Just when TNT was playing a joke on the spot, the audience in front of the TV and the audience in the stadium were also jubilant, but time waited for no one, and before their excitement passed, the second quarter of the game was about to begin.
In the second quarter, at halftime, the team's old people were all kinds of show, of course, the main characters were Rodgers and Wallace, Jackson, who was usually straightforward, was shy at this time, seeing this situation was thicker than the smile on Lupus's face, Duncan was as cute as ever, but your eyes can be bigger? Perhaps inspired by the old students, Iverson opened the scene.
At the beginning, Iverson played high energy, holding the ball in his right hand, pulling the ball on his shoulder, pressing down the center of gravity, breaking through to the right, retreating slightly, returning the ball to his left hand under his crotch, a left thrust, and it passed! No, Don Yell stepped forward quickly! Seeing this, Iverson did not step back and make a jumper, but hit the ball to the basket, and the ball went to Yamada Tada. Maybe there was a plan, just when Yamada Zhong got the ball, Ray Allen was already in place, and Travis was also striding in, seeing that Yamada Zhong of the six roads did not come strongly, even if he was strong, he could score, a basket crossed step after Ray Allen in front of him slightly crooked, the ball was passed to the outside line by him in an unexpected way, and the back frame changed the face frame and passed out from under his crotch and Ray Allen's hands on the ground.
The ball went to Mitsui, who was unguarded at this time by borrowing Patterson to block people, and the ball passed so well that he didn't even need to adjust his movements, and Mitsui, who jumped into the air, threw the ball softly...
Swish!
Just 8 seconds into the opening game, Mitsui Totoshi further widened the gap between the two teams.
Looking back, Connecticut point guard Randolph saw that Wake Forest point guard Iverson was so much shorter than himself, so was there any reason not to vote? He shoots, and then he doesn't shoot.
Bang, Bang!
Under Iverson's strong interference, the basketball smashed out of the frame, and the basketball that popped up was picked up by ma.jian, and then the basketball was thrown out by him, and the basketball was in the hands of Mitsui, who had already started to steal away, and when Mitsui ran to the frontcourt three-point line, Connecticut quarterback Kevin chased after him, and Mitsui, who saw that there was not much chance of strong shooting, was not strong, and he hit the ground and stuffed the ball inward, and Iverson, who received the basketball, took three steps directly...
Then the unbelieving Randolph shot two more three-pointers, but unfortunately only 1 of 3, such a scoring efficiency naturally could not bring the Connecticut chariot, but this is really not that Randolph does not pass, but other positions are not good, the second quarter Wake Forest players are very the defensive end, even more in the first quarter. They opened the game directly to the whole court to stick to the defense, Yamada Zhong sat under the basket to show amazing control, below the penalty line was almost wrapped by him, the other four people were surrounded, like the Olympic rings, of course, it is not really so rigid, there are changes from time to time, where the defender of Lei is pasted, and the other nearby Wake Forest players are also eyeing here, a posture of pinching at any time, in this pseudo. Under Jordan's rule, Ray's scoring flashpoint never burst out.
On the other hand, Wake Forest players are counterattacking when they are counterattacking, and they are playing a combination of sudden throws if they don't counterattack, although Wake Forest is playing three against four on the board, but Yamada Tada's choice is indeed a bit of a hanging bomb, one card two! There are many rebounds for ma.jian and patterson to pick up, which is really one out of two! I don't grab the board and I don't let others grab the board, although this wave is a little self-destructive, but the effect is surprisingly good! Ma.jian, Patterson, a 100-kilogram tonnage, a 99-kilogram pair, and Kevin Ollie, who weighs only 90 kilograms and 194 centimeters, and Kevin Ollie, who weighs 85 kilograms and 191 centimeters, are naturally relaxed and happy. In the situation of weak rebounding and unfavorable offense, the difference between the two teams has opened up again!
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the scores of the two teams came out... At 108:53, Wake Forest's start to the year has arrived.
