Fifty-six, lost to one person
Using Nate's small hit on Luke to cut into the paint area and then pass the ball to Kennedy on the inside to score allowed North Carolina to continue the firepower, and the success rate was higher than the Lions' shot and Li Wu's run out of the gap to score, so North Carolina and Lions have been alternating scores, and by the eighth minute of the second half, the score of the two teams came to 60-58, and North Carolina led by two points.
But now the main team of North Carolina is too tired to work, and even Kennedy, who is omnipotent on the inside, has not made baskets, so Coach Roy began to adjust the rotation lineup.
The main No. 3 Justin appeared on the court with four North Carolina substitutes, and Coach Smith also made adjustments, but his adjustment had a situation that surprised everyone: Li Wu actually did not go to rest!
"Lee has been playing 28 minutes and is running a lot of the time, and on the defensive end he's going back and forth between the wings and the paint, and he's running a lot more than the rest of the team, and now he won't be let go off? What was Coach Smith thinking? Jamison said puzzled.
"Although the intensity of the NCAA game is not as good as that of the NBA, the Lions rely too much on Lee on both offensive and defensive ends, so Lee consumes far more physical strength than the regular 28 minutes, even if he is a tough guy in the NBA, he has to go down and take a break at this time, I don't think Smith made a good choice." Wallace spoke.
"Maybe it's because Lee doesn't want to rest." Murphy said: "Just now I saw Lee running past Coach Smith's hand and making an OK gesture, obviously saying that he could still play. ”
"If that's the case, I want to say that this Chinese boy doesn't care about his body too much, and it's also irresponsible for the team, and no one can maintain the original level of competition with such physical exertion." Wallace was unequivocal.
Crypto immediately agreed, saying, "Maybe after he misses a few shots, Coach Smith and himself will realize that it's time to rest." ”
Wallace and Crypto Monk have the same view of fitness as Coach Roy and the rest of the North Carolina players, Li Wu has the most runs on both ends of the floor, and he should be tired by now! It's just that I'm worried that North Carolina's substitutes will pull the difference away so they stay on the field.
"Justin! Attack the inside line! Kill! Roy yelled from the sidelines.
Justin, who had rested for a while, was holding back the fire in his belly, he was very restrained by Li Wu in the first half, and now he, like everyone, thinks that Li Wu's physical fitness has been problematic, and now he should be able to make a kill when he hits the basket!
So when he was released and got the ball, he roared directly, dribbled the ball twice and rushed into the paint area, jumped high, and prepared to come to a violent dunk, but Li Wu still came first, appeared in front of him, and slapped him to the ground with another palm, and Justin encountered the same encounter as Bris, and was knocked down by the hat!
The Lions' backup point guard, Kyle, then played a fast break, and the score was tied at 60.
"Can you jump so high after 28 minutes?" Both Wallace and Jamison found it incredible.
"And the technical moves are not deformed, a beautiful cap!" Murphy praised without hesitation.
"Don't hesitate to continue to impact the inside line and cause damage! Consume him! Coach Roy seems to be competing with Li Wu and continues to let his players attack the inside line of Li Wu's defense.
Justin, who ate a hat, got the ball again, this time he was much more sensible, and when he dribbled into the paint area, he didn't rush to jump, but when he stepped to the basket, his stride was slightly larger, because he was afraid that Li Wu would give him another hot pot, so he chose to jump closer to the basket.
But this time Li Wu still didn't make him feel better, and directly cut off the ball in his hand with a knife, in terms of ball protection, Justin was far inferior to Briss, so when he found that his ball was cut off, Kyle, who got the ball, rushed through the half court and quickly completed a fast break, and the Lions led 62-60.
"Damn it!" Coach Roy slapped his hand fiercely, she didn't know why Li Wu was still so difficult after consuming so much physical strength, in fact, Li Wu's performance had exceeded all expectations.
The reason is very simple, Li Wu has practiced internal strength, and he does have "qi" in his body! To put it bluntly, there are more physical reserves than ordinary people, and many people's physical strength is stronger than ordinary people, because of their talents, there are many such people in the NBA, but Li Wu's physical strength is constantly enhanced because of practicing internal strength, and the essence of his internal strength is that his physical recovery speed is stronger than that of ordinary people, as long as he uses specific pranayama methods, as long as he does not run vigorously, his physical strength will be restored to a certain extent.
So his endurance is very strong, although the basketball game is very intense, but there is no running all the time, not to mention that there is a timeout, there is no problem for Li Wu to finish the whole game.
After Li Wu rewarded Justin with a hot pot again, Coach Roy gave up the idea of consuming Li Wu, and instead asked Justin to give the ball to substitute center Joel James as much as possible, allowing him to play the bulky Voss alone, and this tactic did pay off, and North Carolina scored points for two consecutive points against Joel.
However, the score of the two teams was widened, because no one in the bench lineup could limit Li Wu, even if there were three people chasing the defense, lacking the final defensive point of Tuoketo, a strong lateral movement, Li Wu's emergency stop jump shot got the greatest advantage, and he invested three three-pointers in a row and scored nine points directly. At 71-64, the Heroes led by seven points in less than three minutes of the rotation lineup.
Coach Roy had no choice but to replace the main lineup that had only rested for less than two minutes, and Coach Smith immediately applied for a substitution when he saw this, after all, even if the main team of North Carolina is physically exhausted, it can still blow up the Lions' substitute players.
In the second half of 11 minutes and 50 seconds, the main force of North Carolina and the Lions faced off again, tired soldiers against tired soldiers, everyone's running and action completion ability teased a lot worse in the first half, but Li Wu was still alive, using the tired footsteps of North Carolina players to shake off 3 times of pursuit, and another 3 shots and 3 hits, by 14 minutes, Li Wu had scored 22 points, and the Lions also led North Carolina by 12 points.
With six minutes left in the game, all of North Carolina's main players were sweating.
"Brush!" When Li Wu shook off Tokto for a dry three-point shot, North Carolina led by 15 points at 86-71, and Coach Roy let out a long sigh, knowing that the tide was turning, and immediately replaced the bench.
"The Lions beat us with just one man!" After the substitution was complete, Coach Roy returned to the bench and said to his head assistant.
