The Big Ten Conference has one last game left in the offseason, and the Wolverine's opponent is The Ohio State Buckeyes on the road.

The Ohio State University and the University of Michigan have long been bitter rivals, and their football teams are both traditional NCAA powerhouses with a long history, many honors and avid fans.

The almost annual football match between them became the most famous rivalry in the NCAA. In the 2000 ESPN awards, the Buckeye and Wolverine college football derby was even more than many professional tournaments, and was selected as the most classic rival match in North America.

The Buckeyes basketball level is not weak. Last season, they tied with three teams for the regular season title, which is not to be underestimated. They won the 1960 championship and entered the NCAA Championship 20 times.

The Buckeyes currently have a starting lineup of four fourth-year players, and they have a lot of experience in working together. Point guard Mars Lawrence, shooting guard Solomon Kelly, small forward Lance Wardhouse, power forward Anthony London.

Their center is Jonathan Morgan, a sophomore white man who has attracted much attention.

Jonathan, who is less than 20 years old, is currently 225cm tall and has an arm span of 237cm, making him the tallest active player in the NCAA. HIS HEIGHT IS COMPARABLE TO YAO'S 226CM, AND YAO'S ARM SPAN IS ONLY 221CM.

Jonathan was therefore known as the "American Yao Name" by fans. He has a lot of advantages on the basketball court, and he can dunk directly with just a light tiptoe, which shows the lethality of the inside.

However, he needed to lose weight and move too slowly. And he can only shoot and dunk under the basket at present, and he doesn't have much offensive skills, which is far from Yao Mingbi.

On December 11, the Buckeyes were packed at home.

The weather is getting colder, but people's minds are getting hotter, and many people have already begun to prepare for Christmas. The final game of the first half of the Big Ten Conference is an important entertainment for the locals.

Jonathan's home fans gave him the warmest applause when he played, with many hoping that he could be on the level of Yao Ming, seeing him as a potential rising star who could play in the NBA.

Jonathan has done well this season, averaging 8.8 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game.

However, David didn't care about Jonathan, and even looked down on him.

He arranged the tactics and said, "Chris, you pull out of the basket this time and look for opportunities outside. Jonathan is certainly only good at defending the interior, he moves very slowly, and he has to take advantage of this weakness and pass the ball to Wang after covering. Luke starts, plays to your speed advantage, and this time to grab the rebound in the backcourt is a fast break. ”

David advised again: "Pay attention to your teammates' running positions during the counterattack, and if Wang is empty, pass it to him as soon as possible." ”

Larry Powell, who started for the first time this season, is quick and good at playing fast breaks. The front line is Wang Jun and Harris, and only one Kaman is left on the inside, with one big belt and four small.

Anthony London is 208cm tall and weighs 107kg, he can play two positions on the inside, and he is not fast. Davy arranged the offense to target the weakness, and the Buckeyes were slow to start.

During the warm-up, Wang Jun used the shooting training card two, which is much better than the previous one-hour training, mainly because it can accumulate time and turn it on and off freely.

He threw a few shots with hints to find his feel and strengthen his memory. When the match was about to start, he immediately shut down the training and knew how hard he should shoot, and he had a general idea of how long it would take to shoot.

Jonathan had a clear height advantage, but the bounce was really not very good, and the jump ball lost to Carman, and the Wolverine attacked first.

The players pulled away, and after a few passes, it was determined that the opponent's formation was 32 joint defense, and two strong men guarded the bottom line. Wang Jun stood from the bottom left corner for a while, observed the situation and ran to the middle.

Power forward Anthony's height is destined to be impossible to defend Wang Jun closely, he didn't waste any effort to receive the pass, Carman blocked the shooting guard Solomon in the left 60-degree screen, Wang Jun held the ball out of the three-point line, and turned around to shoot a jumper near the center.

Big center Jonathan reached from the free-throw line, but it didn't help.

Unless he wants to say to Wang Jun: "Come back, come back, wandering wanderer." "It's a good gesture to reach out.

Wang Jun's action is standard, the arc of the ball is perfect, and the hollow enters the net. 3 to 0.

The Buckeyes attacked, and the ball was passed to power forward Anthony.

Harriston was tragic, he was of good height and was not good at fighting.

David arranged it for Wang Jun's sake, speeding up the pace to facilitate him to brush the data. Bobby also struggled to defend Anthony alone last season, and he asked Harris to go around the front if the opponent had Carman under the rebound.

This time Harris failed to go around the front, Carman was not able to fill in in time, and Anthony turned to score on the board. 3 to 2.

The wolverines attacked, and Wang Jun pulled to the perimeter to block Luke.

This cooperation was not arranged by the coach, Wang Jun saw that the opponent's point guard Lawrence was only about 175CM tall, thinner than Luke, and made a temporary move.

Luke broke through the middle with the ball, the speed was very fast, Solomon hurriedly changed the defense, and Wang Jun ran to the right 50 degrees to open the distance.

Luke attracted Anthony to make up for the defense, the ball was divided to the side, Wang Jun squeezed away Lawrence to catch the ball and make a stop-and-go jumper, and the 175CM Lawrence lost his position, just stretched out his hand, and the ball bounced into the frame. 6 to 2.

The Buckeyes attacked, or hung the ball to Anthony, and after attracting Carman to make up for the defense, Anthony made an inside pass to Jonathan, and "American Yao Ming" toe and easily dunked with one hand. 6 to 4.

Wolverine attacked, Wang Jun reversed on the right baseline and received a pass, and Carman covered to block Solomon. Anthony and Jonathan were both out of the box.

These two people are used to joint defense, even if the coach told them to defend Wang Jun, they also think that it is the task of the outside players. And Carman ran to the left side to cover, Jonathan didn't know whether to completely let Harris chase Kaman, or stand in his position and wait for the opponent to attack.

The biggest difference between joint defense and man-marking is that marking people to defend people is the ultimate goal, while joint defense is to defend the ball as the ultimate goal.

The 3-2 combo defense is generally used against the opposition's outside shooter group, because it can be a strong defense against the top of the arc and 45-degree three-pointers, and its extended range defense is also very beneficial for stealing and passing to launch a fast break. However, the three-point shooting on both sides and the baseline, as well as the area below the free throw line and above the small penalty area, are its blind spots.

The five wolverines all retreated, giving up the battle for the penalty area, and grasping the weakness of the two big men moving slowly.

Wang Jun took out the three-point line, and the right side calmly turned around for a jumper at 60 degrees, and Solomon failed to bypass Karman, which was the vacancy.

Wang Jun's strength in the playground, coupled with the performance of 40+ points on the field, the confidence has reached its peak, and he will not miss such an opportunity.

The ball draws a perfect arc, hollows into the net, brush!

Wang Jun hit three three-pointers in a row, 9-4.

Buckeyes coach Edgar Pearson stood up on the sidelines and shouted "switch positions" at the players on the field. On the offensive end, they had an advantage in the confrontation, but the inside score was only two points, and the Wolverine shot away as soon as they came up with three points, and the situation was unfavorable.
