"Come on, your uncle is still your uncle!" Gordon leaned over and clapped his palms, secretly cheering himself up. On his other side, near the top of the horn area, Sherwin was eyeing the box, ready to come over at any moment.
Li Dong smiled slightly, and the situation on the field was in full view.
There were only forty seconds left, and nineteen seconds left until the end of this attack.
Li Dong began to do a simple crotch dribble, his body and shoulders swayed non-stop, and the whole person slowly approached Gordon, who began to maintain a standard defensive posture outside the three-point line.
This step-by-step approach was like stepping on Gordon's heart, which made him can't help but beat wildly in his heart, and he couldn't help but rely on small broken steps to move backwards, obviously afraid of Li Dong's breakthrough to the extreme.
"Left or right?" Gordon's expression was extremely focused.
Half a step away from the three-point line, it was already within Li Dong's attack range at the moment, Gordon hesitated, not daring to retreat further, and the moment he stopped retreating, Li Dong's right foot suddenly took a step to the right!
This step is really lightning fast, and the right hand in possession of the ball reaches forward, and the body is diagonally about to break to the right.
Li Dong grasped the timing too well, Gordon was taken aback, and the defensive actions that were strictly guarded against this point were immediately a little deformed, and even his steps were a little out of order.
But between this lightning and flint, Li Dong's body turned, and his right hand quickly turned the ball back, handed it over to his left hand, and actually completed an extremely large change of direction in front of his body, and he was suddenly in a more advantageous position, and pulled Gordon nearly a position in parallel!
When Sherwin saw this, he shouted badly, and immediately abandoned the defender and pounced on Li Dong.
Li Dong saw a black shadow rushing towards him out of the corner of his eye, his body was slammed as if it violated physical movement, he controlled the ball with his left hand a little on the floor, and immediately took a big step to the left with his left foot after receiving the basketball, and then when he was in the air, he had already grabbed the basketball with both hands and made a preparation to shoot!
He had a natural lean back in the air, and at the top of the arc near the three-point line, he gently pulled out the basketball in his hand.
"It's impossible to get in!" Sherwin and Gordon arrived almost at the same time, and the two of them jumped up angrily, their long arms covering Li Dong.
From the audience's point of view, Li Dong suddenly burst out, a rapid change of direction in front of the body on the three-point line, and then shook Gordon's wrong step, replaced with a left hand from the middle line, and at this moment the left side of Sherwin forced in, and the two seemed to form a pinch attack on Li Dong, but at this moment Li Dong used an oblique step-back jumper, shook off a lot of space, and then leaned back sharply and threw out the basketball.
The difficulty seems to be very high, and the arc seems to be very high.
"Huh!"
"Huh!"
"Huh!"
The basketball in the arena pierced through the heart, making a pleasant grinding sound with the net.
Kansas fans in front of the TV raised their hands, hugged the fans on the side, and cheered loudly.
In countless university dormitories in China, the sound of ghosts crying wolves was heard at the same time, and college students who were idle to watch the game became Li Dong's most enthusiastic fans.
"There is no victory yet, let's hurry back to the defense!" Li Dong stopped his teammates who came to celebrate, and was the first to run near the University of Arkansas player who was about to serve the sideline, interfering with their baseline serve.
At this time, Coach Bobby hurriedly applied for a timeout with the referee, and there were only thirty-five seconds left, just enough for the University of Arkansas to complete the last offense.
"It's okay, we haven't lost the game yet, and we can get back on the game if we take advantage of this attack!" Coach Bobby communicated with his disciples with a pleasant expression, and only then did he take out the tactics board in his hand and use the marker to begin to lay out the half-court tactics.
On the other hand, Li Dong was sought after by everyone, and they stretched out their claws to grab his hair in a mess.
"The last offense of the opponent will most likely go to Gordon, followed by Portis, and our defense against them is mainly about catching these two guys. The good news is that after this time, there will be no timeout for the University of Arkansas, and once they get their way, we'll ...... like this" Coach Beal gave a little bit of a defensive touch, mainly in the next wave of offense.
The coaches of the two teams quickly explained the tactics, and as time passed, the referee immediately blew the whistle for the game to be played again.
In this situation, both sides are in and out of the holes, and Coach Beal is not wrong about the University of Arkansas, as soon as ShervinMark passed half court, he handed over the basketball to Gordon to organize, like this time, he will no longer pretend to organize the offense, in fact, he still does some individual singles things.
The biggest difference between the college league and the NBA is that even at the last moment, the game will not be completely handed over to the individual individual star.
After receiving the ball, Gordon swiped his right hand and gestured for his teammates to pull away.
At this point, Coach Beal has changed the lineup back to its regular state, with Kelly Oubre defending Gordon and Lee Dong defending Sherwin.
Gordon tried to break through with the help of pick-and-roll, but found that his center's mobility was very average, and instead put himself in the embarrassing situation of being caught by Kelly and Jamari, and the passing routes were cut off to death. He had to pass it back to Shervin, who was almost in the middle circle.
"I'm going to kneel!"
Once the tactics were unsuccessful, the University of Kansas was excited, and cursed the University of Arkansas for playing iron, three non-sticks and even mistakes in their hearts, and a lot of boos immediately sounded in the arena, drowning out the few University of Arkansas fans.
The University of Arkansas' movement was timely, and after Sherwin controlled the ball, Bobby Portis immediately mentioned the high post and coordinated with him.
With a run off the ball, Gordon went from 45 degrees to 30 degrees on the left, with Kelly Oubre close behind.
Sherwin took a step into the inside line with the help of blocking and dismantling, Li Dong was entangled with him, and the bodies of the two people were constantly in contact, Shervin felt the physical pressure that Li Dong gave him, and knew in his heart that the hit rate must not be high under such a simple attack, and at the critical moment, he shook the ball smartly, and actually passed a beautiful pass.
Gordon re-received the basketball on the outside, and at this moment the time has entered the countdown of tens of seconds, and many viewers began to count down the time: "Ten, nine, eight......"
The pressure was exerted on Gordon like a tidal wave, but he didn't care so much at this point, bobbing after receiving the ball, and then dribbling along the right side of the line to break through.
Kelly Oubre dared to relax at this moment, and stuck to Gordon every step of the way, like a dogskin plaster.
In desperation, Gordon dribbled the ball and pulled it back down, stopped in place and then pulled out a jumper. This technical move is so difficult that even Kelly Oubre was shaken out of a bit of space, Gordon was overjoyed, his fingertips gently flicked the basketball, and after pressing down on his wrist, the basketball was thrown out of his hand!
"This ball is here!" Gordon felt really good on the shot.
At this moment, Gordon's ears heard the exclamation of his teammates, "Be careful, Gordon!" ”
Be careful with myself? Gordon was a little confused.
"Smack!"
The basketball, which had just been set aside less than ten centimeters away from him, was like being hit by someone with a fly swatter, and it went off track at the speed of an emergency U-turn.
"Damn, who did that!" Gordon's eyes almost didn't pop out!
He turned his head and saw a huge number nine jersey, outside the half, running wildly......
......
The University of Kansas won the University of Arkansas with a thrilling 83-79 score, which showed what kind of offensive battle it was.
Fans who watched the live broadcast were hooked, and fans who had not watched the live broadcast watched the game overnight.
Li Dong scored 11 points in a row in the final moments, and his performance of 34 points shocked the entire NCAA league, and even the NBA had a big reaction, and he became the scoring champion of the day's sweet round of 16 game, followed by Jahir Okafor, the first pick in the draft list, and Downs of the University of Kentucky.
The prediction order for the 2015 draft was adjusted immediately after this round. Kelly Oubre dropped one spot to 10th, while Li Dong moved up a big step to 7th. Ryan Adams, who didn't have any outstanding performances, fell below the first round and regained his position around the 40th pick.
Many NBA team leaders have become unstable, and they have begun to rub their hands together and inquire about Li Dong's intention to participate in the 2015 draft. And there are also a group of people who are also very keen on Li Dong, that is, the NBA's player agent, these people saw the potential commercial value of Li Dong at a glance, and they came to the University of Kansas to contact Li Dong to see if they could sign this little gold owner.
However, these people were blocked by the official NCAA, and for the sake of the purity of the game, the NCAA has always prevented players from having too much contact with the NBA during the tournament period, although the NCAA claims to be the cradle of NBA talent.
It didn't take long for the hustle and bustle, and a few days later, Li Dong's University of Kansas began its journey to the elite quarterfinals.
The opponent is the traditional powerhouse Michigan State, who is ranked as the seventh seed. (To be continued.) )
