Chapter 60: Counterattack
"We have stabilized the situation for the time being, but our troubles are still not resolved......"
At halftime, Chris stood in the middle of the locker room and looked at the UCLA players around him, "Siwell, do you think you have any good ideas?" β
"I think Rivers' one is pretty good!" Meng Xiaohao raised his head and looked at Rivers, Rivers's performance in those five minutes completely amazed Meng Xiaohao, Rivers has completely carried forward the essence of being shameless or dead, you can fight whatever you want, anyway, I don't care.
Chris touched his chin and knocked his chin down, although Rivers mobilized the enthusiasm of the team and made those people feel better, but this is still not a long-term solution, Siwell's problem is still very serious, if it can't prevent Sivier from scoring, then this game, UCLA will be difficult to play.
But Coach Chris looked around again, who can restrain Sivir?
No!
"Meng Xiaohao!" At this time, Coach Chris's eyes stayed on Meng Xiaohao's body, "In the second half, you give me a good attack!" May I? Get as many points as you can! Can it be done? β
Meng Xiaohao smiled slightly after hearing this, "Score? I'm the best at it, okay! β
Coach Chris nodded and turned his head to Rivers again, "Rivers, when Sivier comes on in the second half, you're going to give me the game to defend him, you know?" Defend him with your own methods! β
Just look at Rivers sneered twice, "Don't worry! I'm sick to him! β
"That's good!" Chris clapped his hands, "I know it's going to be a tough fight, but I still hope you don't give up, the battle for the top spot, I hope we win!" β
"I know the process is difficult, but without the difficult process, where does the beautiful result come from? In the second half, make them look good! β
βUCLAοΌβ
"Never give up!"
β¦β¦
The half-time is over, the second half arrives, and the game continues!
At the start of the second half, Sivir did not come on, but sat on the bench, seemingly trying to recover for the final period of battle.
And Meng Xiaohao and Savis are both on the court.
Without Sivir present, then this is a great opportunity for UCLA.
University of Oregon Ball Possession.
Without Sivir and Eddick on the field, the University of Oregon can't compare to UCLA, which now has Meng Xiaohao, in offense.
Although Savis can't limit Siwell, it doesn't mean that he can't limit others, Meng Xiaohao's defense is also very good, and he is also a first-class point guard, and the University of Oregon's bench lineup is really not enough to see.
Just look at UCLA, which has Meng Xiaohao and Savis on the court, it is a headache for the University of Oregon defense, and an offensive initiation point and an all-round point are locked on the court, which is not a good thing for the University of Oregon.
It was up to the University of Oregon to throw the ball with difficulty, but the ball didn't go in, and the ball just turned around the basket a few times before it came out......
UCLA's backup center took the rebound and passed it to Meng Xiaohao, but Meng Xiaohao did not launch a counterattack, but slowly walked to the front court with the ball.
Although the offense is relatively poor, the University of Oregon's bench lineup is still not to be underestimated, and the University of Oregon, which has many excellent 3D players, is still one of the best in the region in terms of defense.
Meng Xiaohao was not in a hurry, he wanted to play a tactical ......
At this time, Meng Xiaohao glanced at Savis, who immediately understood Meng Xiaohao's intentions, shook left and right twice, relied on the rhythm, got rid of the defense, and also rushed to the inside.
Just watched Meng Xiaohao's hand throw up, Savis then jumped, caught the ball and slapped the backup center of the University of Oregon is a dunk, and the audience was amazed, while the UCLA players were dancing excitedly.
There is a reason why Meng Xiaohao gave the ball to Savis, although Meng Xiaohao could play this ball by himself, he still gave it to Savis, because he wanted Savis to regain his confidence and score was the best way.
With this momentum, UCLA scored frequently in the next few rounds, gradually erasing the point difference, and even overtaking the score, but they could not open up the score gap with the University of Oregon......
First, because the defense of the University of Oregon is indeed very good, even Meng Xiaohao was deflated just now. The second is that through the progress of the game, the outside advantage of the 3D players slowly played out, and the University of Oregon bench has a completely different offensive tactic from the starting lineup, if the starting offensive tactics of the University of Oregon are superstar-like, then their bench offensive tactics are team-style.
Through blocking and running, he ran out of an open position, relying on his own outside shooting ability, and shot well.
The score has been hovering around two or three points......
If Meng Xiaohao can't lead UCLA to pull the score away before Sivir returns to the court, then it will be difficult to play the next game......
"This University of Oregon bench lineup is also okay!" Savis couldn't help but sigh, and at this time he walked to Meng Xiaohao's side and said in a low voice, "Seriously, if it weren't for the two of us, maybe our bench lineup would have been spent." β
Meng Xiaohao can't deny this, although UCLA's bench lineup is good, but seeing the University of Oregon's bench lineup, it can only be said that UCLA's bench lineup is still lacking.
"Gotta figure it out!" Meng Xiaohao said in a low voice, "It's not a way to do this all the time, we have to think of other countermeasures." β
Savis nodded, but fell into deep thought, thinking of a way, it was easy to say, but if she really wanted to, it was still a little difficult......
"Beep!" With a whistle, UCLA called a timeout......
"I'll play later, Xiaohao, change the defensive position to a 3-2 joint defense!" Coach Chris draws a ...... with a tactical board
"Their main offensive means is outside shooting, so let's use a 3-2 joint defense to make their outside play unsatisfactory, mainly to defend their outside line, you know?"
Meng Xiaohao nodded.
"We're going to change the offensive tactics, Savis, you do the conduction!" Coach Chris looked at Savis, "You come to conduct the offensive transmission, Meng Xiaohao, you are mainly responsible for the offense, and you don't need to do the conduction!" β
Meng Xiaohao and Savis both nodded, they knew that Coach Chris wanted to maximize Meng Xiaohao's offense.
"So be it! Strive to widen the difference! Coach Chris closed his pen, "Come on!" β
β¦β¦
The game continues, UCLA has the ball.
Although UCLA's offense is still Meng Xiaohao holding the ball, if Meng Xiaohao's first offensive choice is not a single, Meng Xiaohao will give the ball to Savis and devote himself to the offense, so as to avoid wasting his energy because he still needs to conduct, and Savis is also a good conductor, and the ball that comes out is unpredictable and elusive......
Defensively, UCLA changed its defensive strategy, through 3-2 joint defense, mainly defending the outside of the University of Oregon, which made the University of Oregon a headache for the outside attack, and the University of Oregon does not have a good enough breakthrough player on the current lineup to carry out 1-3-1 anti-joint defense offensive tactics, which can be said to be quite passive.
Gradually, the score was widened, and through Meng Xiaohao's unsolvable offense and UCLA's 3-2 joint defense, the score was expanded to 7 points......
Siwell, who was sitting on the bench at the University of Oregon, had a serious face, and UCLA's counterattack obviously exceeded his expectations, whether it was Pyrivers' play, or the change of tactics just now, it always reminded Siwell that UCLA is not simple.
At this time, Coach Scred's face is not very good-looking, UCLA is really difficult to bite, whether it is Sivier just now or the current bench lineup, they can't defeat UCLA, but now UCLA is overtaking by seven points......
"Sivir, get ready to play!" At this point, Coach Scred spoke.
Sivier looked at Coach Scred and smiled......
"Got it!"
