Chapter Seventy-Nine: Don't Hold on to It

Speaking of the backcourt combination of Memphis and UCLA, the configuration is almost identical, both are a combination of sharp knives + pitchers. But Calipari doesn't think so www.biquge.info he went to watch the last UCLA game against Xavier University, but was surprised to find that UCLA's scoring guard Ye Feng also has the ability to organize offense, although the style is very different from their team's regular point guard Westbrook, but there is no doubt that they are all masters. On the other hand, on his own side, Rose's breakthrough ability is very strong, but Roberts is indeed a pure pitcher, and his assisted power is very high, and it can even be said that his high score is brushed by Rose, which is a big difference compared to the opponent's backcourt.

And now Holland's instructions to the players he quickly realized that it was to shift the focus of the offense from the inside to the outside. Even if Dorsey's defensive strength can allow him to entangle Ship, but as the presence of the talented interior Beasley, it is impossible for them to let one player defend Loew alone, as Loew's skillful interior footwork and accurate mid-range jumper have also proved this before. So is the outside line one-to-one?

Calipari's brows furrowed, Westbrook said that Ye Feng couldn't do it one-on-one. In addition, the team's scoring guard is a defensive hole, and the opponent only needs to pass the ball to the players he defends, whether it is Westbrook or Ye Feng, there will only be one situation when facing Roberts - strong crushing. Of course, as the head coach of the team, especially the head coach of the NCAA, watching food and eating is their basic quality, and the head coach who can play a bad hand is really awesome, not to mention that he only has one or two bad cards in his hand now, and it is relative to other good cards.

However, it is indeed a lot of work to hide Roberts on the defensive end, and the Bruins' outside defense is also quite good, so Calipari can't find a good way for a while. While he was meditating on the bench, the Bruins pressed his team on the offensive end without sparing, just as he had feared, when the shot was transferred to the outside, Westbrook and Ye Feng often exchanged defenders through cover, which made it so that there was always one between them to play against Roberts, and that person was often the one with the ball.

Under the deliberate targeting of the Bruins, the Tigers' outside line was almost beaten into a sieve. Roberts himself was a white shooter, and his face turned even paler at this time, because the two animals opposite had no intention of letting him go, and they were bullied to death if they caught him. Anyone who has played knows that the physical strength consumed on the defensive end is far greater than that on the offensive end, after all, you are active when attacking, and defense becomes passive, once you are passive, you have to spend more effort to respond to the opponent's actions, or how to say that the first strike and then the first strike?

Another very noticeable effect of depleting Roberts' physical strength is to reduce his shooting percentage. Unless it's some pervert who has turned shooting into a stress response, for most people, the most obvious manifestation of physical weakness is a drop in shooting percentage, and it's the kind of ball that smashes the front of the basket. Roberts' performance is a good proof of this theory, as he has failed to shoot three consecutive balls and has been denied a defensive rebound by Love, which was unimaginable in previous games. Of course, in the previous game, they had not encountered beasts like Ye Feng and Westbrook, and Roberts could only eat this loss.

Seeing Roberts' performance fall short, Calipari called the first timeout of the game in desperation. After calming Roberts, he did not hesitate to send on the first substitute in the back line, Donal Mark, this guy is a very fast defensive man, although replacing Roberts would put the team's offensive burden completely on Rose, but in this case, Roberts can't be replaced. Since it has become a loophole that the opponent can exploit, and it has been beaten to the point of physical exhaustion, it is better to rest early and recuperate before going into battle. Besides, although Mark doesn't score much, he is still quite reliable on the defensive end.

Sure enough, Calyparry's substitution was immediate, and the Bruins' outside offense quickly stalled, and Westbrook began to look for opportunities again and again. But standing in front of him was Rose, an equally good point guard, with an ugly face, and the opponent accurately saw through his feints, always maintaining a very aggressive defensive posture, and even made him feel like he had been completely seen through. Just as he was in a dilemma, a familiar voice came from the weak side: "Russell, you stupid, hurry up and pass the ball over, waiting to be tackled by others to fight back?" ”

Westbrook was guarding the ball while following the prestige, where Ye Feng was jumping to his feet in a hurry. It's no wonder that the usually calm man started yelling at his teammates, Westbrook wasted a lot of time in the process of tangling with Rose, and now there are only 10 seconds left in this round. He couldn't help but rejoice that the NCAA round time was 35 seconds, and the NBA had already been whistled for a 24-second violation. Westbrook's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly passed the ball to Ye Feng's hands.

After Ye Feng received the ball, he looked up at the timer, there were only 8 seconds left, and Mark standing in front of him stared at the basketball in his hand like a bulldog. But how could Ye Feng be cowardly? It's just the Tigers' backup defender who defends him, so what will he do now if he coaxes him? Want to be a superstar anymore? Obviously, now that the arrow is ready to be sent, don't be afraid to go up and do it directly! Ye Feng made a decision in an instant, and directly began to accelerate, and secretly pushed the other party with his shoulder when he passed by Mark's side. After eating Ye Feng's small movements, Mark was obviously a step slower, but he quickly came back to his senses and followed closely behind Ye Feng to interfere with him.

Suddenly, Ye Feng slowed down, and Mark was secretly happy in his heart: he could finally catch up! But when he appeared in front of Ye Feng again, Ye Feng dribbled the ball directly forward, then retreated half a step back with both feet, and then leaned back to shoot. Seeing Ye Feng's movements, Mark had the mind to scold, his height was only 1.96 meters, and Ye Feng was already 2.03 meters big, plus he used the combination of backward steps + backward jumpers, which instantly widened the distance between the two. Mark could only watch as the basketball flew out of Ye Feng's hand, drew an arc and fell into the basket.

Rose, who had been staring at Westbrook, glanced at Ye Feng expressionlessly, and didn't say anything, just motioned to Dorsey to open the bottom line. In Rose's opinion, there is nothing surprising about this, he has long believed that Ye Feng is an opponent who can match him, and if he is so easily dealt with by Roberts's substitute, there is no need to prove anything to him on the court. But now it seems that he still needs to be in a position with him! Rose said secretly in his heart.

As a talented defender, Rose has a source of pride, and he sees this game as a good opportunity to make a name for himself. After all, the two sides only played each other in the regular season, and now that they have reached the final four, almost all basketball fans in the United States have set their eyes on San Antonio. So he didn't coerce, but took the initiative to find Ye Feng after receiving the ball from Dorsey. Originally, Bamot also signaled that Ye Feng could change his defense, but Ye Feng refused, and the shame of being killed must of course be washed away by himself.

To tell the truth, Rose's breakthrough is a bit similar to Westbrook's, relying on strong physical fitness to make all kinds of unbelievable moves, and then taking advantage of the opponent's surprise to leave. But Ye Feng himself is a breakthrough master, and he easily guessed what Ross was going to do next, and repeatedly came first, preventing Ross from having a feeling of collapse. However, after a short entanglement, Rose still relied on the continuous forward change to turn back with the ball to break through Ye Feng's defense, but Ye Feng still gritted his teeth and followed, hoping to disrupt the opponent's shooting rhythm.

Seemingly hearing footsteps from behind him, Rose smiled disdainfully, made a sharp stop near the free throw line, and then leaned forward to throw the ball into the basket again before Shipp could come to help. Ye Feng's face was very solemn, he originally wanted to cover the ball from behind when the opponent shot, but he didn't expect Rose to be quite experienced at a young age, so he didn't use a regular shooting posture, but leaned his body forward, so he avoided Ye Feng's defense.

In fact, if it is on the front, Ye Feng can completely cover Rose's shot, but there is a precaution for the back block, that is, both hands can't have a downward pressing action, so it's still a hair? In the final analysis, Rose's forward leaning is the same as Ye Feng's backward leaning just now, both in order to gain more shooting space for himself, but he couldn't make a downward pressure from the back block, so he invisibly suffered a dark loss, and he didn't have anything to reason with.

Seeing Rose turn around and run back to his half without stopping, Ye Feng's eyes narrowed, "Is this to be tough with me?" Who's afraid of whom? I'm afraid you'll be smashed by me outside the three-point line later, and all the so-called self-esteem will be shattered! Last time I lost, then this time, I'm going to give you a good look at what a quick shot is. Maybe you don't know how far I can shoot, do you? Do you really want to see what your face will be like when you witness my archery?
