Chapter 59: Collapse
The Miami Tigers have one of the three fierce players in the United States, the superstar Blake, a black man who is 1.98 meters tall and weighs 96 kilograms, a super muscular man, in addition to strength and speed, he also has two big killers, jump shots and trapeze dunks, and the youth version of Flyer Jordan.
This is Li Qiang's impression of Brak, but I don't know what has changed in Brac after most of the season.
Braque's strength, as one of the four masters in youth basketball that year, is above the level of Michigan Ronaldo!
On top of that, the Tigers also have the Miami Foursome, and coincidentally, each of them has a one-to-one technical profile that corresponds to one of the Michigan Foursome, but everyone is superior!
It can be said that if there is no Li Qiang, the Michigan team is very unfortunate to be pressed in five positions. There will be no defense against the Miami Tigers!
However, Michigan also has Li Qiang, a guy who has defied the sky. And Li Qiang is always hidden by Michigan's coach Nilopa Snow and refuses to be in the starting lineup. This is already a recognized common sense in the United States competition.
As a result, the Michigan players are looking very relaxed for the upcoming knockout season. They are still waiting to kiss the championship trophy!
The game starts, Michigan at home.
Although Paspa's body is much taller than Braque's, his bounce is much worse. The first ball, Brak grabbed it and began to organize the attack.
Brak passed the ball to the Tigers' "Swani" and scored two points on an easy inside single.
After that, the scores of the two sides rose in a mixed manner. It's very strange that the Michigan team is in very good shape today, and it can still tighten the point difference under the pressure of the Tigers, who are ranked in the top four in the entire US Series.
At the end of the first quarter, Michigan trailed by just two points at 26:28. Seeing this, Nilopa has no intention of sending Li Qiang on the field for the time being, hoping to see Michigan win on its own. After all, Nilopa knew that this small place in Michigan could not keep Li Qiang, the dragon of the abyss. Next season's game, we still have to rely on these people and some newcomers to play.
Therefore, the Michigan team must be prepared for Li Qiang not to play next semester! Michigan must learn to survive independently without Li Qiang!
In the second section, the situation has changed abruptly. Michigan finally went silent, and the Tigers played their groove. By the seventh minute of the second quarter, Michigan was already trailing by 14 points at 32:46!
Whathappened? Let's take a look at the video replay...
Without Li Qiang, Michigan mainly uses pick-and-roll tactics. I saw that Ronaldo, the main force in Michigan, relied on the blocking and dismantling of the muscular man Ba Si Pa (this person has Mongolian ancestry) and had a comfortable gap. Ronaldo, who was running, decided to take advantage of this opportunity to deduct one!
What Ronaldo didn't see was that the opponent's main player, Brak, had sneaked to the basket at this time... His movements were extremely stealthy, and he happened to be blocked by another defender of the Tigers, so that Ronaldo could not see it.
Ronaldo jumped high with a wave of energy and a smile on his face. The orange-red orb that was originally hidden at his side was lifted into the air, and its body was completely stretched.
Suddenly, Ronaldo's smile froze. Because he smells a fishy wind! To be exact, it was the smell of sweat on Braque's body!
Ronaldo was pressed down by someone with the ball, and Braque's movements were very fierce! Cristiano Ronaldo, who lost his center of gravity, fell to the floor hard, the smile on his face twisted, full of unwillingness, hatred and muscle twitches brought by pain.
The referee's whistle sounds.
However, after watching the video replay, the referee still did not award a penalty. After all, Braque clearly touched the ball first.
The blow to Michigan's morale was extremely heavy. In the next two rounds of attack, he was actually tackled continuously! Coupled with consecutive misses in shooting, I was hit with a 10:0 offensive wave all of a sudden! Nilopa called two timeouts in a row and didn't change!
Michigan seemed to be sleepwalking, and for the next three minutes, the margin continued to widen. The opponent Miami Tigers got a hot touch, and in these few minutes they actually hit 80% of the shots!
At halftime, everyone's faces were extremely gloomy. Michigan is already trailing by a full 18 points at 37:55. All the Michigan players, including the C-wave, were a little discouraged in both shooting and dribbling. For a while, it seemed as if everyone couldn't play anymore. Michigan has completely collapsed!
Nilopa's original plan to try not to let Li Qiang play was declared bankrupt!
It's time for Li Qiang to come.
