Compared with Li Zhen, who has attracted countless fans and made senior commentators like Kenny Smith work hard to promote.

Daniel Gibson is undoubtedly tragic.

He originally thought that Li Zhen was a small character who was handled at will, just like the little minion with the highest drop rate in the game: low risk and high reward.

Therefore, he put down the harsh words before the opening, and made a heads-up bullfight gesture on the first ball after the opening. However.......

Frankly speaking, if Li Zhen hadn't heroically saved Hollywood's little sweetheart, Gibson wouldn't have crushed Bruce as easily as he claimed, but he would certainly have no problem gaining the upper hand.

Now, however, Daniel Gibson is an all-round underdog in the matchup. Instead of playing to his advantage, he let his shortcomings be exposed under Li Zhen's winding defense.

Although his physique is thicker and heavier than Li Zhen, his strength can't be fully crushed, plus... His ball handling ability is only in the middle of the pack among point guards, and... He also has a rather narrow field of vision, and he is better suited to the role of an off-ball attacking defender.

But now, he wants to fight against Li Zhen.

When Lee's flexibility improved by leaps and bounds, his winding defense was a headache for Daniel Gibson, who could neither use his power to break down directly, nor did he have enough ball handling skills, speed, or even explosiveness to break down the defense. Add to that the fact that his passing speed and passing vision are flawed. So, Gibson played badly.

And due to his frequent single failures, the Longhorns' overall offensive was dragged down, and the offensive firepower dropped sharply.

In contrast, the Stamford Crimson team is under the lead of Li Zhen, although there is no strong scorer, but it can be regarded as a multi-point flower.

In the words of Kenny Smith: "Bruce is simply Steve Nash who can't attack." Or, you could say it's an accelerated version of Jason Kidd as a weakened version of physical fitness. Such a player, the NBA actually doesn't give a chance?? ”

He said this when the first half had just ended.

Li Zhen had 6 points, 9 assists and 2 steals in the half. In the NCAA format, where the offense is slow and there are only 20 minutes in the half, this assist efficiency is S-level.

And the Crimson team also scored 48 points under his leadership.

Although Aldridge scored 17 points in the first half of the half, his team trailed by five points.

The NCAA tournament No. 62 seed leads the No. 7 seed at halftime, which is no small miracle.

Even Chatford, who is known for his draft picks, had to admit: "If you don't take into account the physical confrontation and the talent potential, he is really a very good talent, and he can even make the first-round list." ”

However, it was his principle that followed: "But... How can the NBA not talk about physical fitness and talent potential? If you look back in history, you'll see that many NCAA champions don't make it to the NBA, while high school players who haven't even played a day in the NCAA make it to the league with high picks. ”

Frankly, Charterford makes a lot of sense.

"I don't think Bruce Lee is talented. You also saw it in the pre-game interview, didn't you hear his teammate TJ Wharton say that he couldn't even make the rotation before? He also said that his ability to resist is like Japanese tofu in a supermarket that has been cut open and torn apart with a slight push. But... You also see it big tonight, Daniel Gibson's physical confrontation is completely ineffective, and he is even surrounded! ”

Kenny Smith's argument left TJ Wharton in front of the TV depressed.

This... This turned out to be evidence that Bruce's worth was raised?

Wharton glanced at Coach McHaney next to him.

He noticed that Coach McHaney actually nodded, and he actually agreed with Kenny Smith: "Bruce Lee does have a lot of potential to tap. I've watched his last four games and he's improving every game. The latest stats from the fitness team also show that his stats have improved dramatically. ”

At this moment, McHaney did not forget to pat TJ Wharton on the shoulder: "Whether we win this game or not, we will advance to the round of 32." You're going to have to work with Bruce next. ”

This sentence TJ Wharton is quite unhappy: I cooperate with him? Have you figured out what to prioritize? I'm the star of this team, okay?

However, TJ Wharton still has a smile on his face despite MMP in his heart.

He didn't dare to make the manager unhappy.

……

The second half of the game started quickly.

The Longhorns finally broke their wrists, and they pushed Daniel Gibson to the bench and replaced backup point guard Winston on the court.

Winston is a black player with a height of 178, and he is also very thin. But he has good ball control and is a very good ball handler and porter.

Although he is not as talented as Gibson in all aspects, his thinking is clear: after half the court, he will pass the ball to Aldridge.

Aldridge is a super interior player in the NCAA. Not only does he have a good mid-range jumper, but he also has solid offensive fundamentals under the basket and is nimble with his feet. Moreover, he is good at fast breaking, has a long arm span, and also stands out on the defensive end.

Although Scott is known for his physical fitness, the difference in height is too far after all, and Aldridge has both talent and physicality, he simply can't defend it alone, although Frank Benson often joins the war team to wrap up.

But PJ Tucker is not a vegetarian either.

The Longhorns' two interior players turned upside down in the paint and won back-to-back games.

However, back to it. Bruce is still the decisive player of the Crimson team, and the new Winston is powerless to stop him, and he uses his gorgeous ball handling skills, excellent flexibility and amazing speed to repeatedly infiltrate the Longhorn penalty area, attracting the defense and extremely fast ball, making the team's shooters blossom more on the perimeter, while Frank Benson and Scott also ate a few cakes.

Therefore, the two teams are still moving forward in a balanced situation.

This was completely unexpected by TV viewers.

They had thought it would be a massacre without any suspense, after all, the rankings were too far apart.

But... When they turned on the television, they saw a skinny and swift Bruce Lee walking briskly through the giants of the Longhorns: he led Stanford stumbling in his own way, like King David who used a trebuchet to wound the giant Goliath.

"Honestly, I really see Iverson in Bruce, even though he doesn't score, they're all playing tough against tough opponents in their own way. This game really reminds me of the first game of the 2001 Philadelphia 76ers vs. Purple Lakers! ”

Kenny Smith said solemnly with five minutes left in the game.

He didn't mind making Bruce Lee popular in front of a national audience...... He praised Li Zhen throughout the game.

It even surprised NBA executives in front of the television: Shouldn't this be the exclusive show for the top favorite LaMarcus Aldridge?

"Do you think Stanford can beat the longhorns to advance?" Chatford let out a cry of surprise, deeming Kenny Smith's 'suggestive remarks' too outrageous.

"Why not? Now Stanford is still one point ahead. Basketball is round, and anything can happen. ”

Kenny Smith said calmly.
