When Ben Holland made up his mind to put Colon on the bench, the Bruins' lineup suddenly became three-dimensional.

1.91 meters Wei Shao plays one, his defensive ability will definitely make the opposing point guard suffer, 1.96 meters Josh Shipp has only one task, that is, outside the three-point line, shoot that damn ball into the basket!

Lin Mu 2.03 meters, Bamot 2.03 meters, plus 2.08 meters of Lefou, in terms of average height, the Bruins have completed the surpassing of the Trojan Horse, the college league, there are very few teams with serious center forwards, and the Trojan Horse has no traditional center candidates, and the highest inside line is only 2.06 meters Ty Gibson.

At the beginning of the second half, the Bruins had a very clear goal, using their height and impact to constantly charge the Trojan Horse, Troy's third scorer Davon Jefferson was trapped in the number of fouls and was substituted early, and the team lacked a strong output position for no reason, and the overall strength began to slowly decline.

"The number 9 on the other side, how long has he been on the pitch?" Tim Floyd asked the assistant teacher next to him.

"I've been playing for 30 minutes and haven't had a break."

"After fighting for so long, why does he still have the physical strength to run all over the field?" Tim Floyd was puzzled, looking at the score that was already behind on the scoreboard, and his brow couldn't help but lock.

The Bruins' substitution in the second half was beyond Tim Floyd's expectations, Ben Holland actually pressed Darren Collison to the bench, allowing Lin Mu, who had never heard of it, to defend DeRozan, not to mention, the effect was very obvious.

That Chinese man made DeRozan play very uncomfortable, and the scoring efficiency dropped a lot compared to the first half, not only that, but he was proficient in defense, running, and rebounding, and the Trojan Horse couldn't find a good solution for a while.

"Where did this man come from? The name of the jersey is very similar to Yao Ming, Chinese? ”

Just as Tim Floyd was thinking, DeRozan collided head-on with Lin Mu again!

When O.J. Mayo couldn't break through Willis' defense, Gibson was crushed by Love on the inside, and Darren Jefferson was replaced, the only thing that could solve the problem was DeRozan, a freshman who had just arrived at the team.

"What's it like to be in Southern California? Isn't it a little uncomfortable without me? At the moment of sticking to DeRozan, Lin Mu spoke at an astonishing speed, and quickly greeted the good brother in front of him who had reached 85 friendship with him.

"I'm happy without you!" DeRozan's face flushed, inexplicably embarrassed.

What kind of tiger and wolf words are these, do you want to be ashamed!

Sure enough, this kid has never changed, no wonder his trash talk didn't work for that bald point guard, it seems that you have been ravaging people a lot in training.

"! He took him into the ditch! Looking at Lin Mu, who was smiling a little evilly in front of him, DeRozan reacted.

That performance made DeRozan instinctively think that the two were fighting alone, but as everyone knows, now they have their own masters, and they need to do their best to fight this battlefield without gunpowder!

His eyes instantly became extremely serious, DeRozan was not 100% confident in the face of Lin Mu, he knew the horror of the other party, and ordinary offensive methods had no effect on him.

But basketball is never a one-man sport, and now he is no longer fighting alone on the court!

You taught me the concept of not going it alone, being calm when you are behind, and choosing the most suitable offensive opportunity.

Called for a block, and then passed the ball to Gibson after changing defenses, Gibson came to the basket with two jumps, and just as he was about to go to the basket, DeRozan's roar suddenly came from behind him: "Be careful!" Watch your back! ”

Behind me?

Gibson subconsciously looked back, Lin Mu had already jumped high and was waiting for him in the air!

After landing on the ground, his hands were like vices, relying on the inertia of falling, Lin Mu snatched the ball from Gibson's hands.

Great Break Opportunity!

Lin Mu didn't choose to pass the ball, but made a layup after completing the fast break with DeRozan!

"Your defense is still as bad as ever, and training only strengthens your body, but it doesn't improve your defensive awareness."

"Really, you've disappointed me!"

After the score, Lin Mu said something to DeRozan while retreating, and the latter's face changed significantly.

It was suppressed anger, and DeRozan was very angry because he was positively educated by Lin Mu again.

This scene seems familiar?

"Damn! It must never be the same again! DeRozan gritted his teeth violently, he decided, he was going to single Lin Mu!

After asking for the ball, the Bruins trusted Lin Mu's defense, while the Trojans trusted DeRozan's offense.

In the battle between spear and shield, who can win this duel?

The home fans were all on their feet, cheering on the newcomer who had just arrived in the team.

"Little handsome guy, him for me!"

"Why, although you are from Huaxia, but just for this appearance, I will fan you!"

"No one can go wild in the Poly Arena, boys, give Ye Chong!"

Listening to the constant voices in his ears, Lin Mu couldn't hear what they were talking about, but his body became rare serious.

DeRozan's technical characteristics Lin Mu knows very well, the dribble is good enough, the mid-range shooting is extremely accurate, and the offensive means are among the top among his peers.

Although it can't be compared with the offensive kaleidoscope of Carmelo Anthony, the improved DeRozan is definitely at the top of the pyramid.

Symbolic test of holding the ball, DeRozan did not rush to attack, the NCAA round offensive time was 35 seconds, and there was no need to rush when facing Lin Mu.

Consume time, quietly wait for the opportunity, like a hunter who is not arrogant or impatient, and maintains enough patience in the face of the prey, no matter how alert the prey is, it will show a flaw after a long time, and at that moment, it is the best opportunity to attack!

That's what you told me!

If I could defeat you head-on, would you regret teaching me this?

After a long time of opposing defense, Lin Mu inadvertently shifted the center of gravity of the defense to the right by a small step.

Simple moves are excellent offensive opportunities in DeRozan's eyes!

Suddenly put the ball on his right side, using the distance between the basketballs to suddenly start accelerating, DeRozan tried to use his position advantage to move away from Lin Mu behind him, but he didn't expect the opponent to quickly return to his position and stick to him tightly behind him.

A short hesitation broke the peace between the two sides, Lin Mu quickly made a move, and his perfect arm span destroyed DeRozan's control of the ball, Wei Shao fell to the ground to grab the ball, and suddenly threw the ball forward the moment he controlled the basketball.

In college, Wei Shao has already shown his ability to control opportunities on the court.

After completing the steal, Lin Mu added full horsepower, received Wei Shao's pass, ignored DeRozan who was desperately chasing behind him, a powerful and heavy slam dunk, Lin Mu, who was hanging in the basket, even looked down at DeRozan who was under him, showing a happy smile.

I forgot to tell you that sometimes prey also shows its terrible fangs at the hunter!

In another offensive round, DeRozan was deflated again, and Lin Mu's shot was blocked by the latter to complete the front, and he looked at Lin Mu who was already far away when he fell to the ground, and unconsciously had the idea of having no love.

After working hard for so long, he still couldn't break through Lin Mu's restraints on him.

Tired, really, if you can, please destroy the world at this moment!

...

In the final three minutes of the game, the Bruins held the initiative with an eight-point lead.

With 35 seconds of offensive time, the Bruins can be used to their heart's content, and the Trojans have no way to reverse the score when there are not enough rounds.

In desperation, Tim Floyd could only send a defensive lineup, abandoning the offensive attribute to a certain extent, but still unable to block the impact of the opponent.

The Chinese player was still alive and well after playing the whole game, bringing great vitality to the Bruins at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and at the same time, it also brought a lot of trouble to the Trojan Horse.

In particular, DeRozan's marking in the second half forced the team to make consecutive mistakes and missed offenses, helping the Bruins turn the score around in one fell swoop.

"Damn the team analyst, the pre-game stats don't have any information about this kid at all!" Tim Floyd was a little incompetent and furious, and Lin Mu's appearance broke the deadlock on the court that was originally tilted towards the Trojan Horse, but before the game, the team did not get any relevant information about Lin Mu.

In fact, this is not to blame the Trojan Horse's team analysts, Lin Mu is from Huaxia and has never played basketball in the United States, and the only source of data is probably only the game video in Kobe's training camp.

It's a pity that only one team has seen this video, and that is Lin Mu's current UCLA Bruins.

Therefore, without any data sources and without understanding Lin Mu's technical characteristics, it is not surprising that the Trojan Horse will have such an ending.

The final whistle blew and the first game of the NCAA regular season came to an end.

At 80:70, the Bruins defeated their rivals by 10 points, and the fans at the scene also burst into extremely enthusiastic cheers.

won the first game, or won the USC, which has a lot of "old grudges" with its own family, such an ending is really wonderful!

Lin Mu scored 18 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 steals and 4 blocks in the game, played 40 minutes, and ran wildly in every corner of the court wearing the No. 9 jersey.

He is like a never-tired engine, Ben-Holland wanted to let Lin Mu rest for a while, but he didn't expect to be sternly rejected by the latter.

"Coach, I'm still young, I only have one dream, and that's to play!"

"I don't get tired, my heart is always full of enthusiasm!"

"Trust me, as long as I'm on the court, I'll give it my all!"

Facts have proved that Lin Mu's behavior on the court completely verified what he said.

ran at any cost, single-handedly defending DeRozan, so that the latter's second-half score was fixed in single digits, assisting defense, rebounding, steals, assists...

What can be done, what can be made on the court, Lin Mu perfectly showed Ben Holland his ability.

For such a player, Ben Holland is only full of relief and joy in addition to worrying.

Single-mindedly dedicated to the team, if it weren't for the fact that Lin Mu was just a first-year freshman, he really wanted to put the leading stick of the talker in his hands.

It's so desperate!

Where to find such good and hard-working players?

Not only did he help his teammates practice hard in the usual training, but he also contributed his greatest strength on the court, and Lin Mu definitely played a vital role in the Bruins' victory over the Trojan Horse in the first game!

"Good work, rest well, and give you a day off tomorrow!"

Ben Holland patted Lin Mu's shoulder and said very happily.

However, to Lin Mu's ears, it was as if he had touched some bad switch.

"A day off?"

"Coach, I never have the word vacation in my dictionary, training is all I have!"

"Only training can make me stronger!"

Some of the harsh words in Ben-Holland's ears turned into natural sounds.

Whether it's college or the NBA, the biggest annoyance for coaches is never the lack of the roster itself, but the players' strict requirements for themselves and the desire to win and become stronger!

There are too many players from poor backgrounds, and after achieving a certain level of achievement and enough money, it can often make them lose their motivation to move forward, and there are many players who have fallen or declined in form as a result.

Spiritual power is crucial at this time!

Iron Green Army, tough guy Butler!

They may not be the strongest team in the league, or they may not be the representatives of talented players, but they have that never-defeating spirit!

In Ben Holland's eyes, Lin Mu is such a player.

Despite his static talent, he still holds himself to a very high standard, which is extremely beneficial not only for the players themselves, but also for the team as a whole.

In two months, the team's training atmosphere has changed, Ben Holland has really seen it, the players have become harder, everyone has grown accordingly, and if this can be done for a long time, the Bruins will get stronger and stronger in the next few months!

NCAA March Madness will be the best stage to verify them!

In that place full of passion and blood, the most exciting scenes will definitely burst out!

In the greeting session after the game, DeRozan found Lin Mu with a dead face: "It's really ruthless, old friend, really don't give any face?" ”

The tone was full of complaints, some like a bullied little lady, aggrieved.

"Vegetables are dishes, and there are many excuses."

"If you have a kind of strength, on the basketball court, you don't talk about the so-called brotherhood."

"Unless..."Lin Mu paused consciously.

"Unless what?" DeRozan doesn't know why.

"Unless you become a teammate, I'll see you fight once and at a time!"

"Brother basketball?"

"You think I'm going to run to you?!" DeRozan was furious!

Lin Mu smiled slightly and did not answer.

Who can say for sure in the future, just like James chose to go to the Heat three years later, which is a scenario that no one expected.

"If you have time to practice your three-point shot, the times in the future will change!"

Lin Mu said earnestly to DeRozan.

When the yellow-green war is coming to an end, the Splash Brothers will step into the alliance, and in a few years, the era of small balls will really come to the world!

And this year, the NBA will usher in the most terrifying playoff matchup.

The golden twin guns of the Denver Plateau, the crazy triumvirate of the Celtics, the Houston Wolves led by the Chinese champion and the league's scoring champion, the Dallas Mavericks with peak drivers, the Phoenix Phoenix with extreme running, the Utah Jazz with all the soldiers, the San Antonio Spurs with GDP, the New Orleans Hornets led by Paul, and the Los Angeles Lakers who are about to welcome Pau Gasol!

The last madness before the small ball era, the wheels of the era are rolling forward, Lin Mu is urgent in his heart, after the game, he pulled Wei Shao and Le Fu, and under the extremely painful expressions of the two, they started a new round of happy training.
