Chapter 15: "The Refrigerator" (I)
9 to 0!
Cajon directly reached out and called a timeout.
The cheers at the scene continued, and within three minutes of the opening game, Thompson's three three-pointers directly stopped Kangda!
"Clay! Clay! ”
When Thompson left the court, he was greeted with heroic cheers from the fans.
Thompson was used to it, and after waving to the crowd, he went back to the bench to listen to the coach's tactics.
"Don, you're going to go, I'm going to stare him to death!" Cajon was also a little uncalm at this time, and he spoke with obvious anger.
And this alone has no meaning for Tang Tian, after all, Tang Tian was in favor of playing this invitational tournament at the beginning.
"Understood." Tang Tian didn't think about it that much, and he also liked this point very much.
"Klay Thompson's three-pointer is simply incomprehensible, and I think in recent years, only Stephen Curry of Davidson College can match it." The scale of this game is very large, and the scene is also invited to understand, and at this time the commentator blows wildly at Thompson.
"yes, it's rare to have such a quality three-point shooter, and he's clearly more than just a catch-and-shoot who reads defense to create chances." The commentators also chimed in.
"Toot!"
Just then, there was a long whistle from the sidelines.
After the pause, Kangda made substitution adjustments, and Tang Tian replaced Smith on the court and played in the No. 3 position.
He weighs about 100 kilograms, and he used to play the top position in the fifth position in the previous training matches, and under normal circumstances, he swings in the third and fourth positions.
"He's finally here, a newcomer who has been very popular lately." The narrator was also slightly looking forward to seeing Kangda's substitution.
"Yes, Tang Tian, the wonder boy from China, Kang Da came much earlier than usual this time." The commentator glanced at the timer and said.
"The situation on the scene is very unfavorable to them, and they want Don to bring down the fire to Thompson." The narrator said with a smile.
"Do you think he can do it?" After speaking, he asked again.
"I find it difficult." The commentator hesitated and said.
"How?"
"First of all, I've watched a few previous games in Connecticut, and Don has done a good job of breaking through the defenders, but he hasn't played against a player like Thompson who likes to run off the ball, so the previous games are actually of little reference."
The narrator nodded after listening, this analysis is indeed correct.
"Secondly, didn't Bednar say in the interview that he had made targeted deployments for Don's defense, which is also very exciting."
"In the end, Don hasn't scored in the past games, which shows that his offensive ability is really poor, and Connecticut hasn't scored after the opening, and Cajon is actually risky to send him on the court at this time."
The analysis of the commentators is very good, not only the commentators, but also the fans who hear it behind them can't stop nodding their heads again and again.
"Old man, at this time, our attack will be over." Ollie said at this time, he was embarrassed to question Cajon in front of him when he was replaced, but when Tang Tian went up, he couldn't help but speak.
Just like the commentator said, there is no score in the opening game, and this is 4 to 5, even if you can prevent Thompson, it will not be useful!
Not to mention that it may not be able to prevent it!
"I have my considerations." Cajon didn't explain much this time.
I saw Tang Tian practicing in the training hall before, although Tang Tian said that it was the relationship between the feel of the hand and the vote was accurate, but he had an instinctive feeling, he felt that Tang Tian might have been hiding his strength before, and he was waiting for an opportunity.
Of course, this is just his one-sided feeling, after all, if he will shoot three points and deliberately hide it, this logic is also a bit unreasonable, which is why he didn't talk to Oledo.
However, since Tang Tian came on the court, his eyes have been on Tang Tian, and he is looking forward to Tang Tian bringing some surprises.
California sent the ball out of the backcourt, and Walker held the ball and pushed forward to the frontcourt.
Washington State University is still defending a 2-3 team.
Kangda's consecutive three-point misses allowed them to be more unscrupulous when defending.
Walker continued to borrow Oriage's pick-and-roll offense.
But this time he was very resolute, squeezing under the basket in a row and forcing a layup.
Kangda finally scored a score.
"Kang Da has no choice, if he plays like this, Walker's physical exertion will be very large, and he can't hold on to the whole game." The narrator spoke.
"No, is there any other way?" The commentator asked rhetorically.
The commentator thought for a moment and shook his head, UConn didn't have three points now, and Washington State University's defense was tight, and there was really no other way to work right away than to use Walker's personal ability.
"Kick!"
"Come on! Puma! ”
At this time, the audience cheered for the home team under the drive of the live DJ.
The guards advanced to the frontcourt, and Washington State University still played the same tactics when they arrived in the frontcourt, and Thompson cut directly from the 45-degree angle on the right side through a teammate's block.
As soon as Tang Tian started, he came directly at others.
This is not an ordinary blocking and dismantling, the whole person catches up when the player blocks and dismantles, and there is no meaning of dismantling the ball at all, this is directly running to change the defense!
The scene showed Bennar sitting on the bench with a smile on his face.
This is what he prepared for Tang Tian.
Your Tang Tian's single defense ability is strong, but continuous off-ball blocking and dismantling, you have a hard time with the second, and when you switch to defending others, it will naturally be no threat to Thompson.
However, his smile froze after a while, because Tang Tian seemed to have expected it, grabbed a seat in advance, and squeezed over directly.
"It's fast, and it's ...... Judge accurately! The narrator couldn't help but exclaim at this time.
This kind of high-quality blocking and dismantling, unless there is a prediction, it is difficult to squeeze through it directly.
But Tang Tian did it! He squeezed past the defense and was still chasing Thompson.
Washington State University's second pick-and-roll, this time the pick-and-roll is the center, who has a wider body and a larger block-and-roll area.
But just before the blockade was formed, Tang Tian was an early acceleration to grab it!
He's still with Thompson!
Bednar was stunned.
Is this guy a loach?!
With two pick-and-rolls in a row, Thompson also felt the pressure.
By this time, he had come out from under the basket and ran to the three-point line.
A teammate's first pass to him.
Thompson caught the ball and saw Tang Tian, who pounced, repeating his old tricks, a fake throw.
However, Tang Tian didn't shake it at all!
Slow down directly, defend closely, and don't even give Thompson a chance to shoot!
There was a stirring at the scene.
This Tang Tian, the defense is too in place!
