Chapter 41: When the Game Goes On (continued)
St. Joseph's Yale team attacked, Kyle dangled at the top of the arc, Smith dribbled a few steps, the Connecticut Huskies changed their strategy and chose to pack and press, Smith was a little flustered when he held the ball high, Kyle came to answer, and after taking the ball, he rushed to the right, Marcus quickly retreated to a long-distance defense, and Kyle stepped back and made a direct jumper. Kyle is depressed, so far away, bullying him won't jump shot? Don't be stupid!
Offensive and defensive in different places, Charlie took the ball again with his back and slammed it in, the nearest Martin helped defend it, Charlie turned around and threw it strongly, smacking on the neck of the basket, Smith and Josh under the basket grabbed the position and entangled, Smith's strength was weak after all, suppressed by Josh, when the ball fell, Josh a little, in!
The Connecticut Huskies finally threw the first ball since the opening, Kyle was responsible for dribbling across the half court, Smith took the ball on the wing, this time Josh was half a step away from him, and the other members of the Connecticut Huskies team did not come to help defend the bag, Smith crouched down and made a jump shot, Josh was unmoved, he just threw his foot, but unfortunately missed, and Rudy protected the rebound.
As the game progressed, the two sides went back and forth, occasionally scoring goals, and no longer had high hits in the opening game. Ten minutes into the game, the score was scorching, 21-20, with St. Joseph's lead being one point. Martelley didn't rush to the flames, scribbling slowly with the tactical board, saying something from time to time, and he should be pleased with the performance of his players.
"Timeout, the two sides are evenly matched, the game is extremely hot, no one has an absolute advantage to open the score, now it depends on who is more resilient and can persevere, then the victory belongs to whom." Bill, a well-known ESPN commentator, opened his mouth to talk about the trend of the game.
"Yes, I agree! However, the Connecticut Huskies' offense is relatively simple, they have outstanding ability to pull away singles, break through sharply, and block and dismantle are their usual tactics, all relying on talent to force opponents. Such as Charlie! Rudy! These two points have an absolute physical advantage, and they are invincible. But other than that, there is no way to find any effective way to rewind the ball and score easily, which is very physically draining, very bad for the next game, and once the player enters the exhaustion period and the shooting percentage drops, it will become very bad. ”
Simon, an ESPN commentator who partnered with Beal, paused and went on to elaborate. "St. Joseph's Yale team is the opposite, they are very particular about cuts, moves and runs, moves the ball very quickly, and shoots very resolutely when they get out. Herbert Smith is a great responder, he is like an engine, providing a constant stream of energy. Kyle's breakthrough has enriched their tactics, they have a wider range of options, they rarely make a reluctant shot, and they are extremely tacit teamwork. ”
"That's it! Back from the timeout, let's see what tactical adjustments have been made on both sides. Bill motioned for the game to begin.
"Kyle held the ball on the weak side and singled, the bag came, Kyle accelerated along the top of the arc to shake off the opponent, very smart approach, Smith came up to block the demolition, Kyle burst in, Kelly pushed out and then blocked, Kyle went straight to the basket, collected the ball and jumped up to get ready to go to the basket, the oncoming Rudy pounced, Kyle threw the ball back, Kelly followed up with a dunk, a very strong dunk!" Commenting on Simmons' yelling, he seemed a little excited. Kyle's role is vividly reflected at this moment, using double blocking, attracting defense, dividing the weak side, passing Smith to the mid-range shot, and dunking to the follow-up Kelly. If the Huskies choose not to shrink the bag and cover the defense, he can finish the offense himself. St. Joseph's Yale team is tactically rich, full of culture, and has a lot of execution, and I have to praise Martelley, who is a great coach. He's going to surprise people. ”
Simmons outlined St. Joseph's Yale's tactical play on the court, and in passing praised Mr. Martelley.
"Looking at the Connecticut Huskies' offense, Marcus gets the ball, he can't break through Kyle's defense, his power and speed are not overwhelming, he can only choose to pass. See? The Connecticut Huskies stood motionless, watching Marcus' singles, which was incredible. Not to be outdone, Bill was not to be outdone.
"But it happened, they were such a team, so talented, Marcus held the ball again, this time to block and dismantle, see how it worked, Marcus burst in, faced Kelly and Smith, a step low hand layup, no! It's too hard. ”
"It's hard to imagine that Marcus clearly thinks of himself as Allen Iverson, and it's incredibly that he stabbed the two big men in such a rampage, which is obviously an unacceptable offensive option, and it shows that St. Joseph Yale's defense is really worthy of praise."
ESPN's commentators and commentators worked hard to describe the game.
In the middle of the pitch, a swollen black woman and a black guy were whispering and talking.
'Kyle was surprised today by scoring just one goal, which has never happened before.
"I think St. Joseph's Yale team did a great job!"
"Please! Today is ESPN's broadcast, a national broadcaster, and I think Kyle should work hard, play at all his level, and score as hard as he can, so that will be good for his draft prospects. Like that tall, bald Charlie and Rudy, they're doing a good job. ”
"Victory is the most important thing, and "March Madness" is the stage for Kyle to bloom. ”
"It's a non-conflicting point of view, Kyle can score crazy points and walk away with the victory, tournament? Who can say for sure, in case of an accident? ”
"You have to have faith in Kyle, he's always been able to do things that no one else can imagine."
"Of course! I don't have faith in the rest of the Yale team at St. Joseph's, I'm afraid they're going to hold Kyle back, and that short big forward Kelly, who's been so bad that I'm desperate that he can't stop Charlie. ”
"Oh! Mary, basketball is a team sport, can Marcus be satisfied? ”
"None of that matters, Kyle's play is what I'm looking at."
"Then let's keep watching."
That's right! The two are Kyle's mother, Super Mario, and his older brother, Ronnie. Ronnie has been admitted to a private drug rehabilitation center for treatment, and the results are good, today is Christmas Eve, he just applied for community medical treatment, and he was able to live for two days, and this is the difference between compulsory and private drug rehabilitation centers. For such a high-profile game, and it was a beautiful night on Christmas Eve, they were there in person, hoping that Kyle would celebrate the holiday with a victory. Then they go home hand in hand for tomorrow's Christmas carnival.
Victory is a must, and of course Super Mario prefers his son to brush up on good data, then it's perfect! Ronnie turns to the right and Kyle becomes famous, and it's the most celebratory Christmas, isn't it? Super Mario thinks so.
