"Then why did you choose Kangda as your opponent?" The reporter then asked.

Kangda is in an average state now, and Bennet's previous words are more like saving face for himself, and there is something in the reporter's question.

"We need this opportunity, we need to prove the quality of our team, and at the same time, it's also an opportunity to show the quality of the PAC-10 league." Bednar's answer was airtight, and he was clearly prepared before the game.

"Do you think the team has a good chance of winning tonight?" The reporter then asked.

"Of course, even though the opponents are strong, we are just as good and we have the best shooting guard, Klay Thompson." Bednar spoke of Thompson's face with pride.

"Yes, Klay is a great scorer, but as far as I know, Connecticut has recently come out with a rookie who has been very good defensively, and players like Jimmy Butler and Dion Vitesse have been completely limited by him." The journalist reminded.

"I know, Tang Tian, his defense is very good, but we have prepared a way to deal with it, he can't stop Klay's play, and we know that he has obvious weaknesses." Bednar looked confident.

"You mean he hasn't scored too much?" The reporter asked tentatively.

"You see, you know it, it's not a secret." Bednar said with a smile.

The reporter smiled understandingly.

The interview was short, and when the wave was over, there was a long whistle from the sidelines, and the players of both teams returned to the half-court one after another.

The game began immediately, and the drums and cheers rang out in unison, and the decibel was twice as large as Kangda's home stadium.

Playing in such a high-pressure environment, the average person's heart will really be a little unbearable.

The starters of both teams came on one after another.

On Washington State's side, Thompson's stars are on the moon, and on UConn's side, Walker is dominant.

Tang Tian did not start, he was still sitting on the bench, but unlike before, he was almost next to the vacant seat at this time, and he was the player with the highest rotation order in the team.

"Toot!"

With the referee's whistle, the ball is thrown into the air and the game officially begins!

Oriage jumped to the top and gave Kangda the chance to attack first.

"Defend! Defend! ”

At the beginning of the scene, the DJ led the audience to shout, and the huge shout shook people's eardrums a little.

Walker held the ball, and Washington State went straight to a 2-3 defense.

Joint defense is that the players defend on the field not against people, but only at the area, each responsible for their own defensive area, and then unite to form a half-court defense.

Depending on the defensive focus, the joint defense is divided into 2-3/3-2/2-2-1/2-1-2 and so on.

Because the NCAA doesn't have a three-second defense rule, many teams use joint defense in games.

In addition to Thompson's excellent play on the offensive end, the reason why Washington State University has risen rapidly this season is also a very important reason for the good joint defense.

The 2-3 joint defense they put on at this time focused on interior defense.

The key to breaking the joint defense is to block and dismantle, Walker beckoned, and Oriage quickly mentioned the three-point line to block and dismantle.

Walker burst into the top with a pick-and-roll, but the players who helped the defense were quickly in place.

It can be seen that the joint defense of Washington State University is not dead, but full of flexibility.

However, Walker's ability is indeed the best in the NCAA, throwing his hands through the wall and giving the ball to Lamb on the outside.

Lamb had an open three-point opportunity, and he chose to shoot it directly.

"Bang!"

The shot was a bit off, and the basketball eventually jumped out of the basket.

Lamb has three points, but it's clear that his threes aren't consistent.

Washington State controlled the rebound, and the guard held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, directly calling for tactical movement.

Thompson began to run around various pick-and-rolls without the ball.

WSU isn't tall inside, but it's fast enough to move fast, and after a few pick-and-rolls, UConn's defense is obviously a little bit out of line.

Thompson got around the right side at a 45-degree angle and had a chance for the defender to pass the ball first.

Thompson took the ball and shot straight away.

Bend the knees, jump, straighten the arms, flick the wrists.

Thompson's shots were fluid and textbook-like.

And the speed of the shot is very fast, and Kangda's assistance defense is completely too late.

"Huh!"

The basketball goes straight into the net.

Washington State University takes the lead!

The cheers at the scene burst into flames instantly.

This is their beloved Klay Thompson, who will set off a three-point rain every night, and shoot the opponent's scalp numb.

The first shot in the opening game was hollow, and it seems that he had a pretty good hand tonight.

Back on the defensive end, Washington State is still defending the 2-3 defense, and it seems that Bednar is on the right track to score the bad three-pointers from the outside of Connectn.

Walker continued to struggle with the help defense on the break of Oriage's block, and he distributed the ball to Smith in the open space, and Smith received the ball and then shot a three-point shot.

"Bang!"

Or striking iron.

Kangda opened with two empty three-pointers in a row!

Cajon's face was a little unsightly at this time.

There is nothing wrong with Kangda's method of breaking the defense, but the problem is that it can't shoot in the open space, which even the top coaches can't do.

Washington State University picked up defensive rebounds and went to the frontcourt with almost identical tactics.

The UConn defense was already in place, but Oriage was still slow to move, and Thompson got a chance in the bottom corner.

Washington State's attention was all on Thompson, and the defender made the first pass.

This time the opportunity was not as good as the last time, Thompson received the ball, and Oriarchie struggled to make up for it.

However, Thompson was obviously more than just a fixed-point pitcher, and after receiving the ball, he faked a shot and deceived Oriarchie, and then dribbled to the side before making a shot.

The ball spun around in an arc, and the trajectory was very positive.

"Huh!"

Another crisp sound echoed through the stadium.

Thompson's second three-point shot, back in!

He scored two three-pointers in a row in the opening game!

It feels hot and hot!

After the goal, Thompson was also a little excited, reaching out and making a three-point gesture in the middle of the defense.

The cheers broke out again, and the momentum became more and more amazing.

A dunk can detonate the scene, as can a three-pointer in a row!

Kangda's offense, Walker suddenly accelerated after the pick-and-roll this time, and squeezed through the defense after the emergency stop.

The slamming of the Washington State University players.

"Bang!"

The ball was so difficult that it bounced high on the back of the basket.

Kangda's offense, or not in!

The cheers continued.

After Washington State University got the rebound, he directly pushed the defense to counterattack, and it was Thompson again, who went to the front court to receive a pass from his teammates, and chose to chase three points directly in the face of Smith's defense!

Smith's defense is completely in place, and Thompson is throwing confidently and strong shots against the defense!

The ball went past Smith's defense and sliced through the air in a spinning arc.

"Huh!"

Return in!

Thompson opened with three three-pointers!

The scene was completely exploded.

It's a three-point machine!
