NBA basketball rhythm monster

Chapter 32 The x factor

Anthony scored a beautiful goal that was extremely difficult, which directly aroused the enthusiasm of the audience.

As for Anthony himself, he excitedly waved his fists in the air to vent his excitement.

But this exciting mood seems to have lasted for too long, which is not a good thing. Anthony's free throw was not very good.

"clang!"

Hitting the back edge with too much force, Syracuse University seems to be in trouble when it comes to grabbing rebounds. Syracuse University's interior height is not very high, and the quality of its individual players is also poor.

So when I was trying to grab a rebound, I was stuck by a Longhorns player.

Cooper was blocked by his teammates and easily grabbed the rebound in front of Anthony.

"Isn't it still a point to make such a fierce appearance? What's the air?"

"You!" Anthony, who has a gang background in New York, has always walked sideways. He couldn't remember the last time he was provoked by such a little person.

At this time, Anthony was a little embarrassed. You could just ignore him, but Cooper kept making irritating remarks.

What if Anthony ignores him? If word spreads that a future big star that is being watched by scouts all over the league cares about an unknown guy who doesn't know where to go after playing in the NCAA?? Anthony's youthful mentality at this time can't afford this person.

.

It was the Longhorns' turn, and Ford finally started to play the pick-and-roll that the Longhorns are most familiar with. After a series of hand-offs, he finally ran out of the bottom corner with 7 seconds left in the offensive round.

There was an open space. Ford made a move and scored his first three-pointer of the game.

"Damn!" Anthony couldn't help cursing in his mind, "Why can't these Longhorns be beaten to death? Why are they so difficult to deal with?"

"It's only five points away. Carmelo... Hey, Ford will score a three-pointer, and I will score a two-pointer. Let's live together!" I thought of Cooper's trash talk again.

"Are you bothered?"

Li Luo, who was sitting in the game booth, burst out laughing when he saw this situation. Why hadn't he discovered that Cooper, a teammate, had a talent for trash talking before?

You are put on the field to consume the opponent's general's stamina. Why do you buy one and get one free?

Looking at Anthony's face that was flushed with anger, Li Luo estimated that Anthony would have to fight Cooper alone in the next round.

As expected, Anthony's temper was clearly understood by Li Luo.

As soon as his teammates passed half court, Anthony, who was still outside the three-point line, immediately shouted for the ball.

"Guard him! Cooper! Press forward and don't let him shoot! There are teammates behind you to cover for you."

Li Luo cheered for his teammate Cooper on the bench. His role was crucial. As long as Li Luo got a rest in these five minutes and the score was not opened. In the final fifteen minutes of the decisive battle, the Longhorns

There is hope of winning.

On the contrary, if Cooper's guard failed to restrain the rampaging Anthony during this period, Li Luo may have to play immediately.

And face a monster that has already developed its hand early?

Li Luo was not sure whether the Longhorns had a chance to win this game.

When Cooper heard what Li Luo said, he took a step forward and got closer to Anthony who was holding the ball.

Anthony took advantage of Cooper's slow pace in this attack and kept pulling the basketball in front of him to find opportunities for breakthroughs.

After another dribble, Cooper finally lost his position, and Anthony found the opportunity to pass him in one step.

Similarly, when Anthony dropped the ball and started attacking Cooper with his feet, the Longhorns' inside line was already ready to block Anthony's goal path at any time.

When Anthony successfully shook Cooper's body away, the two men's three-second zone trap had been deployed.

Anthony, who broke through, obviously knew that it was very difficult to break through after the opponent was ready. After breaking through to the free throw line, he quickly adjusted his body shape before the two Longhorns pounced.

I made a small throw that I'm not good at.

The small floater is a scoring skill that a small man must practice to break through, and Anthony has obviously practiced it.

But he obviously didn't practice this move enough. Fortunately, the space created after breaking through Cooper was large enough. After adjusting his core for a while, Anthony's hand shape was still acceptable.

He stumbled and threw the basketball high into the air. It hit the small frame in the center of the backboard and hit the net smoothly.

"Huh~" Anthony breathed out a rare breath when he saw the ball go in. It was not easy for Anthony to score this ball. It can even be said that this ball has an element of luck. But no matter what, the lucky ball entering the net seems to indicate today's fate.

The goddess always favors Syracuse University.

But no matter how much Anthony attacks and scores, Cooper just refuses to accept it like a fool.

Cooper's voice came faintly again:

"Ha! Lucky boy! According to the 50% law of conservation of luck, it will be my turn to score next time."

When he was still sighing that the score difference had reached seven points and Syracuse University was in a great situation, he heard this fly buzzing in front of him, and Anthony's mood suddenly became bad again.

"Just you?"

"Hehe." Cooper smiled and said nothing because he saw Coach Barnes in the distance making a tactical gesture. The only tactic in the team that ended with Cooper would be executed in the next round.

TJ Ford advanced with the ball in a swaggering manner. Since his level was at least one level higher than that of Syracuse University's point guard, no one dared to steal the ball when Ford advanced.

Just stay at half court honestly.

Ford waved to Cooper, motioning for Cooper to come up as a cover.

"Escape!"

Anthony has always had a star mentality and basically doesn't do the dirty work of pick-and-rolls.

Seeing Ford rushing up the stairs as soon as he summoned Cooper, Anthony despised the fat man even more.

Nothing to worry about!

So Anthony stood near the center line, waiting for Ford's breakthrough.

As expected, Ford chose to break through to the right after the pick-and-roll, directly leaving the Syracuse University defender behind.

"It's so fast!" This direct head-to-head confrontation gave Anthony an intuitive understanding of the speed of the Longhorns' little guard.

Anthony followed Ford to the free throw line. At this time, he had to lament his personal talent. Anthony, who started later, could not catch up with Ford's position, but his long hands and feet were able to cover Ford's shooting route.

Ford is too small!

Unexpectedly, Ford had no intention of shooting. He broke through to the baseline and flicked hard to the left baseline!

"Who's there?!"

Anthony was shocked!

Cooper has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. After the pick-and-roll was completed, he did not choose to go inside to fight for rebounds as usual.

Instead, he bypassed his own shooting guard and squatted in the corner.

This tactic was coach Barnes' reward for himself after confirming that Cooper's shooting was qualified.

Today, Cooper will use this tactic once and only once on this stage.

Cooper calmly catches the ball, aims, and shoots...

The opponent's defender pounced, but the height of his defender was a bit insufficient for the inside player Cooper.

so,

"Whoa!" Three-pointer hit!

"Oh, Mom! Mom! Did you see it? I scored a three-pointer in the NCAA finals! Did you see it? I know you specially ordered today's cable television!"

The score difference reached four points, which was already very unsafe for Syracuse University, so the opposing coach quickly called a timeout.

At this time, Cooper was already crazy with joy. He knew that his mission had been completed perfectly. Even if he had more playing time, his opponent Anthony would stare at him tightly and there would be no chance to shoot.

So on the way back to the bench, Cooper shouted happily in front of the live camera.

Even though Syracuse University is currently in the lead, by now, Li Luo can already say it loudly and start counterattacking!
