51. Can't get up
Jeff got the ball and immediately went inside, but this time it was worse than the last time, he ate a big hat from Kennedy, and also picked up the ball for Marcus, who was returning to the defense, and Marcus passed the ball directly to Justin who was speeding down, giving the latter a chance to dunk with both hands.
The atmosphere in the stadium was ignited again, 7-0, and the Lions have not won a single game so far.
Coach Smith called a timeout and scolded Jeff for less than two minutes, then replaced Cohen and told Cohen: "When you get the ball, keep an eye on it and pass the ball to the player who runs out of position!" After speaking, he pointed at Li Wu: "Look for him first!" ”
Cohen averages four assists per game, which is the Lions' first, and his passing vision is much better than that of Jeff Cowbe, but he is only 193cm tall and slightly short in the No. 3 position, especially when the opponent's No. 3 position Justin is 203cm tall.
Coach Smith replaced Cohen thinking about how to score as soon as possible, as for Cohen's loss in the position, he couldn't think about it, and now he has to narrow the scoring gap and suppress North Carolina's arrogance, otherwise it will be impossible for the opponent to come back after the momentum.
On the field, as long as the score is more than double digits, the player's mentality will change, the leading side has a relaxed mentality, the more you play, the more relaxed you play, the better the feel will be, the more you are behind, the more anxious you are, the completion and quality of tactical execution will be reduced because of the impatience of the mentality, and then the feeling will also be reduced, and then watch the score get bigger and bigger, and become more and more frustrated, then there will be no suspense in the game!
In the NBA, there are also turnaround factors such as super play, explosive feel, and rebound of fighting spirit, but in the NCAA, the probability of a comeback after a party rises is much lower than that of the NBA, after all, the people who play in the NCAA are not those old fritters who have been in the league for several years or even more than ten years, but have a strong heart and unyielding fighting spirit.
Most young people's willpower is often not strong enough, and it takes all kinds of difficulties in life to sharpen it.
At the end of the timeout, the game started again, Maodore still passed the ball to Li Wu after half time, Marcus and Justin still came up to wrap up the clamp for the first time, Li Wu passed the ball directly to Cohen, and then immediately ran to the power forward Luke, Luke also ran along the three-point line from the wing to the top of the arc, and the big forward Bliss who defended Luke immediately ran out with Luke.
Cohen got the ball and immediately went to the paint, Kennedy was still standing firmly in the paint, waiting for the opponent to hit the basket, and Osetkowski was pressed behind him by him, without any space to catch the ball.
Obviously, on the inside, North Carolina has an absolute advantage.
Li Wu's off-ball running speed was extremely fast, throwing off Marcus a position, Justin was blamed by him for throwing off a half-body position, after coming to the top of the arc, Li Wu turned and ran, running to the left wing, Luke stood still, and made a blocking move, delaying Bliss's run, at this time, Li Wu had appeared on the left wing of the three-point line, completely empty!
Cohen followed Coach Smith's instructions, and immediately found Li Wu with a ground pass when he saw Li Wu, after Li Wu took the ball, Marcus had chased behind him, Li Wu immediately stepped forward to make a shooting action, Marcus immediately jumped up from behind when he saw this, and wanted to come to a chasing hat, but Li Wu suddenly shrank his body, this was just a feint, and Marcus could only watch flying past Li Wu.
Justin, who had just wrapped Li Wu, also chased after Li Wu at this time, Li Wu stepped again, and the excited Justin didn't have time to hesitate, and jumped high again, but Li Wu shrank again, and then slapped the ball, moved a step sideways, and then jumped and shot.
"Brush!" The basketball entered the net, and the 7-3 Veterans Memorial Gymnasium immediately resounded with cheers and tsunami cheers, which were obviously initiated by Li Wu's compatriots.
"Ness!!!! Murphy couldn't help but line up the table and said loudly, "This ball is so exciting!" Wallace! Jamison! Did you see that? Lee plays Marcus and Justin as they fly past him and calmly shoot into the net! What a cool lad! It's amazing! ”
Murphy listened silently to Wallace and Jamison singing about the Lions just now, and he never had a chance to refute, as if he was constipated! Now that he said this, he suddenly felt refreshed.
"Ugh! Man, I have to say, this ball really shows Lee's basketball IQ, and the two feints he just made are very realistic, and they were made for Marcus and Justin! The first feint he deliberately turned his face a little to the left, because Marcus was chasing on his left side! In the second feint, he turned his head to the right, because Justin was chasing after him! This Chinese kid is very smart! He doesn't just shoot, he cheats! Wallace said.
"I think Coach Roy needs to pay attention to him, a simple bag and clamp tactic may not be able to limit a kid with such a high basketball IQ, and the Lions' No. 3 bench Cohen is not Jeff's stunned young man, he only has the basket in his eyes, he can pass the ball! And I bet Coach Smith must have instructed Cohen to find Lee's position as soon as possible, and if he wants to run without the ball, everyone in North Carolina can't keep up with him! "Rather than commenting, Jamison is reminding North Carolina to adjust its strategy.
I don't know if it was because I heard Jamison's prompt or because of myself, Coach Roy shouted from the sidelines: "It's business as usual!" Consume him as much as you can! He couldn't have been running so fast, and he couldn't have been so accurate all the time! ”
Then North Carolina took the ball, small forward Justin held the ball on the outside, a stride dribble past Cohen, and then towards the paint area to kill, Cohen, who was ten centimeters shorter than him, worked hard to defend, Justin reached the edge of the paint area and immediately passed the ball to Kennedy on the inside, Kennedy was another easy back single, and scored two points.
North Carolina still led by five points 9-4, and Coach Smith also shouted on the sidelines at this time: "Let Lee hold the ball!" Let Lee hold the ball! ”
Li Wu then advanced with the ball, this time, as soon as Li Wu held the ball past half court, Marcus and Justin ran up to wrap the bag, Li Wu immediately passed the ball to the empty Cohen when the bag was not formed, Cohen had already dribbled to the three-point line, and Li Wu ran to the bottom right corner at a fast speed.
Luke and Ossetkovsky immediately pulled out of the three-point line and blocked and dismantled on the route of Li Wu's run, and Kennedy saw Ossetkovsky running out and immediately shouted: "Keep an eye on Cohen!" With that, he ran sideways from the paint to the bottom corner, watching as Cohen prepared to intercept his pass as he ran.
And small forward Justin desperately ran towards Cohen, and power forward Bliss ignored Luke and stood on Li Wu's running route, ready to make a running delay on him to help Marcus chase Li Wu.
At this time, everyone's eyes were on Cohen, who now had two options, one was to wait for the pass to Li Wu, and the other was to make a layup by himself, and Kennedy, the interior gate of North Carolina now, had left the paint area.
