Chapter 177: The Battle with "Old Coach K" (4)

Jaylen Brown is done.

This is the unanimous thought of all the scouts present, and those two balls just now have undoubtedly magnified Jaylen Brown's shortcomings to the extreme, with rough skills, impatient psychology, and narrow vision, and according to the current situation, his mock draft ranking will have to drop at least ten places.

Shashewski didn't want to hurt the striker's pride, but the score was now stalemate, and it would be ugly if he lost, and his timeout was just right.

Seeing the angry "Old Coach K", the players of the American team who left the game immediately calmed down, especially Jaylen Brown, who took the initiative to admit his mistakes.

The reason why he is recognized as a famous commander of a generation is not only his excellent tactical ability and on-the-spot command ability, but also his personality charm and ability to mobilize morale.

As soon as he spoke, the NCAA stars lowered their heads and listened.

"Every member of your team here represents the highest level of the NCAA, and if we lose here today, it will not only be us, but the entire American college basketball, and you will not only represent the American team, not only the NCAA, but also your own alma mater. Do you want to go back to school and be laughed at by your classmates? Or do you want to get into the NBA and be ridiculed by the old guys across the league? Pull yourself up, there's only one offensive powerhouse on the other side, just choke his offense, and you're going to win, Brandon (Ingram), you defend Roy, Chris (Dunn) and Jaylen (Brown) are in charge of the defense, just use your athleticism to limit his shots and force him to pass. Marquis (Chris), you have the most athletic talent, you come to guard Zhou Qi, if they play a pick-and-roll, you switch to Roy, with your speed and bounce, he can't make a strong shot in front of you. ”

Shashewski's remarks were sonorous and forceful, to the point, and the tactical arrangement of just a few sentences immediately boosted the morale of the American team, which had fallen into passivity.

Back on the pitch, everything was different.

Roy felt unprecedented pressure, this is a bag of three people!

Ingram's frontal defense, Brown and Dunn's help on the wing, and Chris, who switched to defend himself after the pick-and-roll, each of the top NCAA players in the United States is extraordinary.

Roy's offense was met with unprecedented resistance, too much physical contact consumed his physical strength, and the dense defense made him powerless, Roy had to play the role of a playmaker, but without Roy's finishing ability, the other players were really lackluster in attack, several long shots hit iron, the American team played a fast counterattack one after another, and the Chinese team fell into passivity again.

Under the desperate defense of the three military players of the United States, the scoring speed of the Chinese team slowed down, and the rhythm returned to the side of the American team, and Roy, who did not use the "coach on the field", was helpless, he was not a god in the end, and could not break the defense of the opponent's three at the same time.

The score is gradually widening, and the emotions of the audience are gradually fading.

With 5 minutes left in the game, the Chinese team was already behind with a score of 72:92, and Coach Fan saw that the general trend was gone, so he replaced all the main players to the break, and the game entered garbage time.

The final score was 82:106, although the game was lost, but Roy's performance was very amazing, he only played 26 minutes, scored 32 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and under his leadership, the national youth team even had a chance to equalize.

Of course, in the face of the strong American men's basketball team, the Chinese team still lost in the end.

After watching this game, many fans asked the same question: What if Roy was allowed to start?

What happens if Roy is allowed to start? This question was also asked by reporters at a press conference.

Coach Fan was full of praise for Roy's performance, yes, he almost single-handedly saved the team, can you ask for more for a player like this?

The same question was put in front of Shashewski, and his question and answer was even more intriguing, "If Roy changes his mind and wants to play in the NCAA, I believe that with his ability, he can definitely rule the whole league." But alas, he chose to go to the NBA to challenge his limits, and I can only wish him good luck. ”

"Old Coach K" had to admit that he was very interested in Roy, and he was afraid that he would now blame his scouts for why he didn't recommend him to him earlier, if he had known that there was a character like Roy in Chino Gang High School, then "Old Coach K" would have been polite and personally invited him to Duke University.

Of course, now all is not possible.

Roy loses the game, but he earns respect and, moreover, he receives a gift.

Trait "Home Dragon" (Rank 1).

●Expiration date: Permanent;

●Effect: When playing at home, all abilities are increased by 5%;

● Next Level Effect: When playing at home, all abilities are increased by 10%.

In addition, with his first national team shirt, his long-term mission to play for the national team has been completed.

Another match of the first round was then played.

In the end, Ben Simmons' Australian team and Croatia battled it out with a final quarter to beat 2015 Under-19 World Youth Championship runners-up Croatia 96-88, and they and the United States both won one and took the lead.

After a day of rest, the second round of matches will begin, with China taking on Croatia and the United States taking on Australia.

With the perfect foreshadowing of the first round, the atmosphere of the second round was even more enthusiastic.

Roy's excellent performance in the first game against the United States team attracted him a large number of fans, and the Chinese team, which was not as strong as Croatia, suddenly gained confidence because of Roy's sideways.

In the past two days, sports websites have been full of Roy's news, and even the video of his previous game at the "Uncle McIe Summer 3-on-3 Basketball Game" and the previous "Internet celebrity video" have been dug up.

All the fans were buzzing about Roy.

It seems that the appearance of Roy can immediately change the weak basketball level of the Chinese team.

However, the game was so magical, on the Chinese side, Roy's start raised the team's strength by at least two notches, while on the Croatian side, due to the first round against the Australian team too hard, the team's main player Mario Hezoña was unfortunately injured and could not play.

One in and one out, the gap between the strength of the two teams has undoubtedly narrowed a lot, coupled with the advantage of playing at home, the Chinese team led by Roy narrowly defeated the Croatian team 89:87 after four quarters of hard fighting in the second game.

Roy had a good performance, playing 35 minutes and finishing with 28 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.

In the other game, the United States team defeated the Australian team 112-90 without any suspense, so that theoretically, the Chinese team and the Australian team lost the possibility of winning the championship, and their final round of games will be fought for the runner-up.

Race for second place? That's not bad, you must know that before the start of the Four Nations Tournament, almost all fans expected this national youth team not to lose all three games too ugly, and now the national youth team not only has the upper hand against the United States, but also won the European powerhouse Croatia.

In this runner-up battle with Australia, fans will undoubtedly expect more.

Ben Simmons vs. Roy, the showdown between two of this year's draft favorites, is really full of selling points.

Roy tightened his shoelaces, he was finally going to challenge the best college player of the year, and by winning him, he could prove that he was the best rookie, and for that purpose, he was ready......
