Chapter 226: Becoming a Myth
Vali's defense not only prevented O'Neill III from being stupid, but also instantly sealed the audience's mouth.
In the past, the offensive ability and defensive intensity were just average, and it was as if Wal-E had changed a person. In fact, in addition to the special training with the brothers, WACKER also taught his son a lesson for the first time.
Wacker was positioned to play from the No. 3 position to the No. 5 position, although he did not have the height of a top center forward, but this did not affect his skills as a top center forward.
His dial was like a key, which quickly opened the doubts in his son's heart.
The Blue Devils had the ball and only had 10 seconds left in the first half. When Radel passed the ball out, Valanda shook his hand and hoisted it into the box.
Facing Vali again, O'Neill III gritted his teeth and hit the defender with one shoulder, but unfortunately this time Wali did not move at all.
"Your powers?!" Vali's previous impression of not having enough strength is actually related to the fact that he is too gentle, and many times he can defend better.
At this moment of his hesitation, he saw Vali slam the basketball in his opponent's hand with a big hand.
said that it was too late and that it was fast, Zhang Yi immediately rushed to the front. With a wave of his hand, the basketball flew straight to the opponent's basket.
5,4,3,2,1, at the end of the first half, the red light lit up, Zhang Yi jumped into the air and bent into a long bow, holding the ball firmly and making a shocking dunk!
The audience was dumbfounded, and then there was an earth-shattering cheer. Although the Bruins were still a few points behind in the first half, with this attack and defense, the situation on the court immediately changed abruptly.
Frank felt a little tricky for the first time, because judging from his performance on the field, Vali didn't know what he had been through, and his abilities had changed drastically.
And the expressions on Zhang Yi and Esgallo's faces were also excited, which proved that they were not consumed much energy in the first half.
"Coach, what are we going to do in the second half?" O'Neill III is now suffocating like a frosted eggplant.
But Frank was biting his fingernails, and there was nothing he could do about it.
At this time, Valanda said in a deep voice, "Even if you don't focus on the center, it doesn't matter, our overall circulation is stronger than the other party, as long as we maintain the original style of play and stabilize the lead, we will definitely win!" ”
"That's right!" Radel is a grumpy, but he is calm at times like this, because they have no second option but to win.
If they can't help Frank win three in a row, the Blue Devils' starting five will be ridiculed for refusing to participate in the draft.
"After crossing this level, we will have no opponent!" Valanda stretched out her hand, and the other four also roared, "Come on! ”
Once the Duke University Blue Devils team five are together, it will be a nightmare for opponents. Coupled with the overall strength, they are indeed a cut above the UCLA Bruins.
As soon as he came back in the second half, the Bruins attacked first, and Escalo also deliberately dispersed the offensive pressure of himself and Zhang Yi.
Wall-E struggled to get in the position on the inside, so as soon as he raised his hand to ask for the ball, Esgallo saw that his playmaking skills were even better than Robert's.
Whether it is a player like Zhang Yi who can play from 1 to 5, or a two-way guard like Escalo, it is a manifestation of talent.
Even Valanda can't match that, because he's a traditional point guard, like a more offensive version of Jason Kidd.
Although he is also destined to become a star, it seems that Vallanda's future is not as bright as Zhang Yi and Esgallo.
Vali singled O'Neal III, which is also not a common style of play for the Bruins. So everyone is also paying attention to the exclusion zone.
O'Neal III is not only offensive strong, after all, his height and reach are a thick wall just standing under the basket.
But it was this great god under the basket who was carried out by Vali to the bottom line. In this way, Vali is still stronger than O'Neill III in terms of strength.
The audience is stupid, is this guy hiding his strength all along?
Not only ordinary people, but also many scouts were a little shocked, because Vali has always been a talent player hovering in the third or second round.
Coupled with the identity of the second generation of stars, in fact, the team manager doesn't like it very much. There are still too few second-generation stars who are famous in the NBA, and most of them are problem teenagers.
Vali squeezed O'Neill III away with his strength, and then went to the baseline to wipe the board and hit a ball, and the footwork and hand movements were clean, which is the performance of a good center.
In ESPN's rankings, O'Neal III's draft prospects are in the first round of 8 or 9, which is higher than Robert's.
But now, if Vali plays at his level, the first-round pick is likely to make a big move.
The NCAA's No. 1 center in the past two years has played for the Tigers, so the emergence of Wali will have a seismic impact on everyone at the center position.
No one is thinking that the Bruins are bad as a whole anymore, because Vali has proven itself.
Robert is also famous, and although Brad is a bit ordinary, he is a very good blue-collar player and very talented.
was constantly chasing points, and the Duke University Blue Devils were not to be outdone, and played steadily under the leadership of Valanda. Although there was no hero ball, the score was close, but the Bruins had no chance to overtake.
Towards the end of the game, the Blues still held a four-point lead. And their offensive round, as long as they score smoothly, the game can basically be declared over.
I saw that Valanda pulled Esgallo out with the ball, and he wanted to transfer the ball, but found that the other positions were seen to death, so he had no choice but to use a feint to shake the opponent.
Esgallio suddenly said, "You're strong, but not strong enough!" ”
As soon as the voice fell, Valanda stared at it, and the basketball in his hand was gone. At this time, Esgar in front of him appeared behind him even more strangely.
"Impossible!" He desperately chased the defense, but was still dunked by Esgallo's fast break.
The score is still two points away. Now Valanda could only desperately defend the ball, and then before Esgallo let go, it passed into Radel's hands.
Basketball keeps circulating, although the risk is very high, but the individual defense strength of Scalho and Zhang Yi is top-notch.
The Blue Devils really feel that basketball is very hot right now, and no one wants to take an extra second.
Until the last 10 seconds, Zhang Yi suddenly appeared on the ball road and completed the steal with a big wave. Rader did his best to stop him, but didn't dare to foul because they still had a two-point lead, and now it would be better to bet on him not to miss than to send him to the free throw line.
I saw that Zhang Yi only ran the three-point line under the two-person package, and there were 3 seconds left in the time, he could only quickly adjust it, make a three-point shot, and go in, and the Brown Bears completed the reversal and approached the top 4! If you don't go in, the Duke University Blues win!
At the end of the day, the audience erupted in shocking applause and cheers, and even many celebrities and NBA superstars raised their hands and stood up in exclamation.
Because, with a three-point hit, Zhang Yi hit the only killer shot in the whole season!
Of course, it's not that he doesn't have a strong killing ability, but the Bruins were only cornered by the Duke University Blue Devils......
One chance! A lore! Zhang Yi was blown into a myth in an instant!
