Chapter Ninety-Six: BMW X5

In the 12th minute of the first half, Trent Johnson angrily called a timeout!

The team's defense was a mess during this time, especially against Chalmers and Darrell Arthur!

Chalmers hit two three-pointers from the outside in a short period of time, and Darrell Arthur even hit the basket in quick succession, causing Robin and Brooke to each foul.

The pause was that the score had been changed to 20:20 and the two teams were tied.

"What are you doing? Quincy, don't keep staring at that damn ball! Can't you see your opposing player? That guy has a 47 percent three-point shooting percentage! ”

Quincy was sprayed by Trent Johnson with a foaming star, and looked at Zhang Yu with aggrieved eyes, who directly gave him a fierce look!

The little had no choice but to carry the black cauldron on his own.

Back on the court, "Stanford" used Robin Lopez to delay Beasley's breakaway after the pick-and-roll, and the other players assisted in time to force him to shoot from mid-range or long-range.

This is the standard way to deal with pick-and-roll breaks, and how effective it is depends on how well the players defend and the offensive players' attacking ability.

To replace Robin with Duncan, Beasley was directly frozen.

Beasley's tactical literacy is really not high, and when he returned to the field, he didn't find that the opponent had changed formations, and he was still running blindly, and the angry Bill Sailf secretly cursed.

Bill Self had no choice but to shout Beasley's name from the sidelines and let him break through to cause damage. Stanford has all of them on the inside with one foul, and one more can hit the next one.

Zhang Yu held the ball, he had just checked the number of fouls by the opposing players, Aldridge and Darrell Arthur also each carried a foul, if he could play one, it would undoubtedly be a great help to his team.

Brook Lopez came out to cover, Zhang Yu used explosiveness to get rid of Brandon Rush, and in the face of Darrell Arthur, who was blocking him at the free throw line, he directly shot this time.

Darrell Arthur is not stupid, such an obvious foul, except for cute goods like McGee, it is estimated that there are not many people who are fooled. Darrell Arthur was very careful not to infringe on Zhang Yu's cylinder this time, even if Zhang Yu leaned on him at the end, it would not be a foul.

However, he obviously underestimated Zhang Yu's ability to make fouls, why did the calf that swing forward so much?

In addition to threatening the opponent's friends, another role is to make fouls!

I saw Zhang Yu's calf kicked forward, deliberately kicked Darel Arthur, and then fell backwards exaggeratedly......

"Toot ......"

The bald Crawford's whistle sounded in response to a defensive foul on Darrell Arthur!

At this time, it was still 2008, and the Reggie Miller regulations introduced a few years later had not yet been implemented, and this kind of deception and foul play was not a fake fall. Of course, if this action is put on hold after two years, there is no doubt that it will be shown a technical foul, and there will be an additional penalty for faking a fall after the fight.

"Referee, it's his calf that leans against me! What does he care about me? ”

Darrell Arthur was very aggrieved, he had already paid attention to his defensive movements, and still did not avoid one of Zhang Yu's shameless calves

"University of Kansas" reluctantly replaced Darel Arthur with Darnell Jackson, a 206cm tall and 250-pound power forward, his defensive ability is not bad, and his single defense ability is even higher than Arthur's, but his flexibility is not enough, and his breakthrough ability after blocking Zhang Yu is not as good as the former.

In the next round, Beasley plans to follow Zhang Yu's example on the offensive end and get one of the two Lopez, and he will target the more offensive Brook Lopez.

As it turned out, he was on the wrong track, and Brook Lopez was also a cunning guy who wouldn't risk a foul in order to stay on the court, even if Beasley scored a block, he wouldn't risk a foul and try to block it. So Beasley hit Brooke Lopez twice in a row, and the guy stopped at the last minute.

Trent Johnson understood Brooke's choice off the court, and only if he stayed on the court, the University of Kansas would not be able to unscrupulously trap Zhang Yu. In the last game, he fell into a foul crisis, and Zhang Yu's breakthrough immediately fell into layers of encirclement, and he could only rely on the outside touch to score points. The feel is not always there, and in important games, it is still efficient to score points by breaking through.

Beasley hit Brooke Lopez twice, but did not cause damage, and the third time he came back, the basketball was finally slapped out of the court by Brook Lopez when he saw the opportunity!

No matter how strong your breakthrough ability is, you can't treat a big man with a height of 213cm as air!

Basketball went out of bounds, Bill Cerf called a timeout, Beasley's brave and unscrupulous breakthrough didn't satisfy him, Brook Lopez was cunning and not fooled, you wouldn't change someone to play? It's brain-dead!

The game was 14 minutes into play, the score was 25:22, Stanford University led by 3 points, and Trent Johnson temporarily replaced the López brothers and Zhang Yu off the break.

The "University of Kansas" also replaced most of the main players, and the game went to the bench for time.

The bench strength of the two teams was half a pound and two pounds, and they played on the court for three minutes, the score was 29:28, and the "University of Kansas" recovered 2 points, and the difference between the two teams was only 1 point.

Take advantage of the dead ball, replace the main force on both sides at the same time, and start the final battle of the first half!

Zhang Yu's ability to score at critical moments worried the coach of the University of Kansas, Bill Serve, so in the last few minutes of the first half, he chose to appropriately relax the defense of other players at Stanford University and concentrate his forces on Zhang Yu.

The University of Kansas' tactics were correct, Trent Johnson knew his own core better than he did, and when the game restarted, the team's offensive tactics revolved entirely around Zhang Yu.

Bill Zero's defensive set-up hit the opponent squarely, and Stanford's offense instantly fell into passivity......

Zhang Yu found that there were more defenders around him all of a sudden, and it was difficult to break into the dangerous area close to the basket even if he used cover. This is the time to score, he doesn't want to rush to shoot from the outside, he wants to go deep into the basket to play the success rate, but the opponent's bag makes it difficult for him to do that.

Two consecutive attacks, Zhang Yu was forced to shoot on the outside, and in the end, these two attacks ended in iron, Zhang Yu could only give up the idea of scoring points, and use breakthroughs to attract the opponent's bag defense, and make balls for teammates.

Brook Lopez faced Darnell Jackson, who had a stronger single defense, and also had no chance, and the two attacking cores of Stanford University were dumbfounded, and the scoring momentum was suddenly choked by the opponent.

The University of Kansas, on the other hand, is adamant about playing Beasley, and this time he was instructed by his coach to start playing on Robin López.

Robin Lopez wasn't as shameless as his older brother, giving his all on the defensive end, not giving in lightly, only to get his second foul in less than a minute.

Trent Johnson frowned and didn't replace Robin Lopez. With two minutes left in the first half, two fouls were barely acceptable. He was more worried about his team's offense, which had to change because the team had time blocked.

Stanford called a timeout in the final minute and a half of the first half, and the score was 31-33, and Stanford University was already two points behind.

"Quincy, Chalmers can't defend players who are good at breaking, use your speed to break him, you have to be confident in your speed!"

Trent Johnson knew that his team had to have a third man step up and disrupt the opponent's defensive set-up, and Fields faced Beasley, it was difficult to show any appearance, and Robin's offensive ability was only to dunk and hit the board from close range. The team mileage went back and forth, and there was only one Quincy left to make a fuss.

This first-year point guard, the opponents he met this year were either experienced players or talented star players, and almost every game was exploded! By now, I have no confidence.

In fact, Quincy's strength is not bad, he has first-class speed and ball control, although he makes average layups and shoots, but his breakthrough ability is very good, and he is a good weapon to break the deadlock!

Of course, the premise is that he must first regain his self-confidence!

Quincy was given such a crucial task, and he was very uncertain, and Zhang Yu patted him on the shoulder before going on the court.

"If you can score 15 points in this race, I'll give you a BMW X5!"

Zhang Yu knew that this little was not from a good family, and he grew up in a black slum community, so it was not practical to expect a few words to reply to his confidence at this time, and it was more effective to use something realistic.

"Really? Don't lie to me, boss! ”

When Quincy heard this, his eyes lit up, and his nervous expression suddenly disappeared!

Zhang Yu smiled, clenched his fist and struck him lightly on the chest, and said: "A BMW X5 is less than 100,000 US dollars, and your boss has signed an endorsement contract with Nike for hundreds of millions of dollars, do you think I will lie to you?" ”

Quincy's face was full of envy when he heard this, not to mention hundreds of millions, he was already snickering at the endorsement contract that he could get a million dollars a year, and the number of hundreds of millions was simply an unattainable dream for him.

The game restarted, and Stanford fans suddenly discovered that Quincy, who had always been the worst part of the team's table, broke out without warning!

With a reddish face and a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, Quincy used his excellent explosiveness and speed to break through Chalmers twice in a row. After a break, he scored a layup directly, and after a break, Aldridge, who was on the opponent's inside, was fouled defensively, and scored 4 points in a blink of an eye.

This was just the beginning, and Quincy suddenly became tough on the defensive end, and the momentum was like a doping.

With the assistance of Zhang Yu, Quincy stole Chalmers' basketball before the end of the first half, scored a goal on a quick counterattack, and finally scored six points in less than two minutes, making Stanford University 37:36 in the first half, leading the University of Kansas by one point into the second half.

Quincy relied on these 6 points, the total score has risen to 8 points, and it is not far from 15 points, that BMW X5 is like a naked beauty, which leads to all of Quincy's strength, and the effect is so good, even Zhang Yu didn't expect it.

The Stanford fans began to cheer for Quincy, the first time the little had enjoyed so many cheers, and for a moment, Quincy felt like he was in better shape......

Zhang Yu was defended by the opponent in the first half, and got 11 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, which is already very good for others, but the fans obviously have higher requirements for him.

On the other side, Beasley, who was also heavily defended, scored 13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks in the half, and the two were evenly matched!

Trent Johnson didn't know about Zhang Yu and Quincy's private agreement, and faced an interview with reporters at halftime, and implied that Quincy's last-minute play was arranged by himself, and it was his own words that inspired Quincy's fighting spirit, and the latter was able to have such an outbreak!
