Chapter 019: The Legend Returns

Usyris's current defensive strategy is to cut the ball, as long as the center is cut off to intercept the ball's offensive route, diagonally intercepting the ball-carrier's offensive line, Princeton's tactics are basically nullified.

His height, arm span, big hands and other advantageous physical talents have taken advantage of this area, and outsiders can only envy and hate.

Bo Mu Tie immediately moved to the left waist position, ready to receive the ball at any time.

Larry was caught by a double and could only protect the ball sideways, moving towards the baseline, and was gradually forced into a dead corner.

Usiris is tall and long-legged, straddles, bends the knees, hunchs over, and with long arms waving, the interception is very wide, leaving only a small angle for the ball carrier to break through.

He put the 1 person mark on Larry's body on the spot, and sure enough, an elongated, twisted and overlapping figure appeared in front of him, and it could be clearly seen that Larry's action route within 1 second was really amazing.

Larry forced a jump shot, and the basketball was jumped by Usyris, grabbed it in mid-air with his big hand, and after half turning, threw it to Chen.

After Chen received the ball, he immediately ran with the ball.

The other members of the main team hurriedly turned around and came over to intercept.

Bo Mutie was the most timely to chase and stopped Chen from outside the three-point line.

Usiris also chased after him, received Chen's pass at the top of the arc, controlled the ball with his right hand, immediately cut into the paint area, strode forward, hugged the basketball, as if preparing for a three-step layup.

Bo Mu Tie immediately chased after him from the side, raised his arms high, and suddenly jumped up after three steps, ready to chase after the cap.

Head coach Craig Eslick frowned, because he knew that if Usilis insisted on making a low-arc shot, there was a 90% chance that he would be blocked by Bomu.

Usiris came to a small change of hands, and when he took the third step, he came to the restricted area under the basket, jumped up, held the basketball high with his left hand, shook his wrist, flicked his five fingers, and shot with a super high arc, and the basketball just avoided the interception area of Bo Mutie's big hand.

I saw the basketball spinning slowly in the air, dancing gracefully in the ballet, drawing an upside-down J-shaped arc, and falling into the basket lightly.

Oh, my God!

All of them immediately exclaimed, it was so gorgeous, so elegant, so wonderful!

It's a George-Gerwin stunt!

Finally, a fanatical fan screamed, and most of the fans suddenly came to their senses and exclaimed: George-Gervin!

In the field of basketball, fingertip plucking the ball to make a layup is the highest level of basket picking technology.

On the court, the common picks are all close-range jumps, arms raised, wrist shaking, high-arc shots, and one less finger plucking action.

Since the retirement of "Iceman" George Gervin, the fingertip plucked layup has been completely lost, and the pick-and-roll technique has been almost lost on the basketball court, whether it is the NBA, the NBDL, or the NCAA, few people can play a hand

The only NBA superstar who uses pick-and-roll as his main means of scoring is George Gervin.

The NBA superstars who use pick-and-basket as one of the means of scoring, that is, the "Basketball Emperor" Chamberlain, "Dr. J" Irving, "Batman" Pippen, and the "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan, are only four.

In addition to that, Magic Johnson and Maddie occasionally performed a pick-and-roll.

It's a shame that no one can imitate the technique of plucking the ball to the basket with a fingertip.

Today, a miracle reappeared, and everyone was shocked.

Head coach Craig Ezric also opened his mouth wide and didn't react for a moment.

Bo Mutie was also dumbfounded, that's all right!

The members of the main team reacted first, and ran over frantically, this one slapped his arm, that one patted his ass, and cheered in unison.

The assistant coach couldn't wait to see the next round and immediately shouted: kick off, kick off quickly!

Fans also chimed in: kick off, hurry up!

In the next round, Bo Mutie received the ball directly near the halfway line, controlled the ball outside the three-point line, and waved his big hand to let his teammates spread out, ready to have a one-on-one bullfight with Usiris.

He is the captain of the team and naturally has privileges.

The other team members spread out separately, leaving enough space for the two to fight the bull.

Usilis was very cold, straddled his legs, bent his knees, bowed his waist, swung his arms, and stared at the muscle rhythm of Bo Mutie's calves, which could judge the opponent's breakthrough route, and his long arms waved irregularly, and at the same time cut off Bo Mutie's route to pass through and lob high.

Bo Mu Tie is 2.10 meters tall, weighs 98 kilograms, is on the thin side, and has a large bamboo pole body.

With a height of 2.06 meters and a weight of 111 kilograms, Usilis is very strong at first glance.

Bo Mu Tie took a single step with his back, but was resisted hard by Usyris, who could only use flexible footsteps, swaying left and right, trying to break through, but was intercepted by Usyris, who wanted to pass the ball inside, and was also intercepted, and finally relied on Ford to run out, help clear the siege, and take the basketball over.

Ursiris was the same interception defense again, forcing Ford to the touchline.

Ford could only make a ground-hitting pass, which turned out to be tragic, and was intercepted halfway by substitute small forward Alec.

After Alec's steal, a change of direction broke through in front of Ford.

Head coach Craig Essric nodded in satisfaction. It's clear that Usilis is doing well defensively.

Usyris immediately rushed towards his own attacking half, and Bomu was mad to the right side of Usyris.

Alec raced with the ball, got into the right midfield position, and with a simple through ball, passed the basketball to Usiris.

Usilis delayed for a moment to catch the ball with his back, and Bo Mutie took the opportunity to defend it.

Usiris simply doubled with his back and moved back to the 40 line, then turned and jumped.

Bo Mutie also jumped up, the bounce height was almost the same as that of Usilis, and the speed of the bounce was a little faster than that of Usilis, and it was effortless to take off twice in a row.

Usilis jumped for the first time to throw the ball with one hand, but he didn't find a chance to shoot, and the second jump, raised his arms high, plucked the ball with five fingers, and came to a high-arc layup, which finally broke through Bo Mutie's fingertips to intercept and enter the basket in the air.

Head coach Reg Essric has used rigorous mathematical formulas to calculate, with Usilis's height of 2.06, vertical bounce of about 55 centimeters, and low arc shooting habits of 30 degrees, in the entire amazement team, except for the big man Bo Mu Tie, Montas, and Mark who have a fast bounce speed and a bounce height of more than 50 centimeters, no one else can intercept it.

And so it was.

Usyris, too, saw the problem, and instead of forcing a shot, he switched to a high-arc layup.

It's also one-on-one.

The gorgeous layup, some fans could see it clearly, and immediately cheered, and most of the fans could only stare dryly, unable to look, listening to the cheers in the front row, and also echoed.

The head coach tweaked a bit and replaced Mark Green, who has a great bounce, to defend Usyris' low-arc shot.

Round after round.

Usiris showed his defensive prowess, aggressive defensive attitude, hunched down calves, long arms limiting lobs and through balls, forcing ball carriers to move to the touchline.

On offense, he tries to avoid being blocked, either a one-handed throw in the open space, or a close-range pick-up layup, or a small throw from a small distance or a missed basket, although there are not many shots, but the shooting rate is as high as more than 80%.

In fact, Usilis secretly rotated the target of the 1-person super marker, whoever is the defender, put it on whom, and after seeing the opponent's action route clearly, he took the first step, stood firm, or shot in time.

It is worthy of being a cheater in the game system, on the defensive end, forcing the ball carrier to make frequent mistakes; On the offensive end, seize all kinds of opportunities, and perform various passing tricks from the double gap.

The pressure on the main team suddenly doubled, and mistakes were frequent, and they were repeatedly picked up by the substitute team, intercepting and stealing halfway.

Bo Mutie also showed his defensive ability, with very flexible feet, close defense, and fast jumping, which basically limited Usiris's low-arc shooting opportunities in the middle half of the range; Coupled with Mark's defense, Usiris's ability to cut points was severely restrained.

The fatal flaw of one-handed bouncing is this, once you hit a big man with great bounce power, you will stop eating for most of the time.

The main power forward Montas is very aggrieved, his bounce height is a little worse, he can't defend Usilis at all, he can't reach the high-arc layup, and he can't intercept the pass in the jump, and he chases and runs hard, but he can't defend Usilis in a round.

Usilis has shown a talent for high IQ in basketball in terms of running, strategy, ball distribution, blocking, blocking, etc.

After attracting a double bag above the 60-line mid-range, he tried his best to distribute the basketball to the substitutes who entered the personal firepower range or were in an instantaneous vacancy with a variety of passing methods such as passing in the gap, passing under the ribs, passing in the big jump, passing under the crotch, high lob ball, passing in the jump, passing in feints, and hand-to-hand passing.

Substitute center Valera has good back-to-back single skills in the restricted area under the basket, substitute small forward Alec has good mid-court shooting skills in the right half, substitute scoring guard Martin has good three-point shooting and small throwing skills on the left and right sides, and bench point guard Chen's three-point shooting and small jump shooting skills in the restricted area are good, which must be used reasonably.

All of a sudden, the substitutes opened fire on all sides, completely suppressing the main team.

10:3, a chopping small storm.

At 12:5, a small storm of chopping.

At 8:2, another small storm of chopping.

At 12:4, there was a small storm of chopping.

Head coach Reg Ezric is also very good, letting go of any simple foul and trying not to interrupt the rhythm of the game.

The offensive and defensive rotation is very fast, 15 seconds a round, the whole game is very little breakthrough for the substitute team, basically there are a lot of empty shots, naturally very easy.

Twenty minutes passed, and half-time was over.

All the players of the exclamation team applauded, they already admired the five-body throwing, a guy who played football could easily run, respond, pass, and pick the basket on the basketball court, and abused the main team so miserably, this is amazing!

The fans also saw Usilis's ultra-fast low-arc shooting and gorgeous pick-and-roll skills, as well as response skills, defensive skills, etc., and cheered and applauded in unison.

That fingertip plucked layup was really amazing!

In the video, you can occasionally see a small man playing with one hand, but it is rare to see it on the court.

Usilis's flashy pick-and-roll with his high-arm from close range, long-arm interceptions inside and outside the three-point line and near the restricted area under the basket impressed all the fans, and the cold, flashy, elegant, long-armed, big-handed, etc., were simply a replica of George Gervin.

Head coach Reg Esric is super satisfied, because Usiris has shown the versatility of a power forward with super-defensive ability and super-responsiveness, and is more suited to Princeton's tactics than Bomute.

The only thing he didn't understand was that Usiris didn't dunk once, obviously close at hand, and it was still a simple layup, which was a bit strange, because I often saw Usiris dunk before, and it was great to dunk with one hand and two hands; On the other hand, maybe Usyris wants to keep his shooting touch!

On the court, many players will deliberately reduce the number of dunks to maintain a soft touch, which is understandable.
