Super Lord of the Rings

On the 24th, the Star Arena was full of spectators.

Almost everyone supports the Duke Blue Devils, they have a group of loyal fans.

A small number of fans of the Wolverines came to watch the game, and the cheers were completely covered up.

The only consolation, Wolverines fans, is the "quality" win.

Abby looked radiant in the Wolverines' No. 13 red jersey. Before the game started, she attracted shots from many media and became a highlight in the live broadcast.

Duke players are very calm when they come out on the court, which is also the advantage of a prestigious school. The players have long been used to big scenes.

The Wolverine players were affected by the atmosphere of the competition to varying degrees, and they were all playing in the championship for the first time. During the warmup, Gordon couldn't make a single shot. Powell was even more outrageous, and all layups missed.

As usual, Wang Jun started "Shooting Training" first, to find out the feeling and strengthen the memory when prompted by the system.

Michigan radio broadcasts the game live. The commentator Simon analyzed: "Whether the Wolverines can advance today, I think the focus is on the performance of the role players, the characteristics of Kaman and Wang Jun. The Blue Devils must have studied thoroughly. Someone must stand up to share their pressure."

Partner Justin agreed: "The problem of the Wolverine's firepower concentration has accompanied the entire season. The Blue Devils' offensive shots are very average. The three of them averaged 15+ per game, and the two of them 10+. The internal and external lines cooperate very well."

Wolverine starting: Gordon, Wang Jun, Harris, Bobby, Kaman.

Blue Devils starters: Duhon, Redick, Jones, Sheldon Williams, Eddie Benson.

Kaman won the jump ball and the game started.

Gordon took to the frontcourt, Wang Jun was on the right side and Kaman had no ball to cover, and received the basketball, Jones quickly bypassed Kaman, and was close to him the moment he turned to face the frame.

Wang Jun protected the basketball with his back and squeezed Jones, but failed to squeeze away.

Jones, who is 198cm tall, is very confrontational. Wang Jun wanted to throw the ball to Kaman, but the opponent raised his arm to interfere, and with his height advantage, he blocked the passing angle.

The old coach K's opening tactic was man-to-man, and it was unexpected to let Jones, the perimeter defensive leader, deal with Wang Jun.

Wang Jun had no chance to make a shot, and passed the ball to Gordon, who responded, and the latter passed the ball from Du Hong's head to the inside.

Benson withstood Kaman, this is a 210cm tall man, lack of attack power, specialty is defending the basket. Kaman turned to the right and forcibly missed the shot. Shelton got the rebound.

The Blue Devils attack, the Wolverines defend, and Wang Jun defends the basket.

The ball was passed to Shelton. After catching the ball on the left side, he turned his back to Wang Jun, took the ball and swayed towards the middle, attracting Wang Jun to move to the middle, then turned around to the bottom line suddenly, and jumped up quickly , One-handed shot.

His low-post skills are very skilled. Once Wang Jun is overwhelmed, there is nothing he can do. The gap in height and wingspan prevents him from blocking Shelton, and the ball hits the board and enters the frame. 0 to 2.

Sheldon doesn't just rely on his body to play, he has skills, and such a person cannot be limited by strength.

The Wolverines attack, Kaman covers from the side, Wang Jun catches the ball, Sheldon quickly switches defenses, Jones also bypasses Kaman, and the two form a double team.

Wang Jun suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable.

Jones has strong physical fitness and excellent height and wingspan. If he doesn't shoot directly, it will be difficult for him to dribble.

Wang Jun subconsciously thought that Kaman was in a state of being let out and would get a chance, so he passed the ball to the side without careful observation. As a result, Duhon let go of Gordon and blocked the ball in the passing lane.

Du Hongchuan Jones quickly counterattacked, the latter threw away Wang Jun, jumped up with all his strength one step before the free throw line, glided in the air for a certain distance, and dunked the basketball with one hand and scored! 0 to 4.

The on-site commentator yelled: "Super dunk, Jones scored a morale-boosting goal, his physical fitness is amazing, Chinese player Wang Jun can't keep up with his speed!"

The Star Arena was detonated by Jones' goal, and the Blue Devils fans cheered together.

Duke is only the fourth seed in the district,

After the Marquette Golden Eagles, the Blue Devils fans refused to accept it. They firmly believed that the team could advance to the top 16 and even compete for the championship. The dark horse Wolverine could not stop them.

The Wolverines attacked, Wang Jun relied on Kaman to get rid of Jones, and Sheldon quickly switched defenses.

After being blocked, Wang Jun found that Jones went around to defend Kaman, even if the ball passed, he couldn't make a direct shot. So he passed the ball to Harris on the side, who dropped it to Kaman, and Benson went up again, forming a double-team with Jones in the low post.

Bobby was emptied in the middle and Kaman scored the ball.

Bobby hit the iron with an open jumper, and Shelton withdrew to the inside and grabbed the rebound.

The Blue Devils fought in a positional battle and passed several times from the outside. Benson gave Redick a side screen to get rid of Harris.

Redick caught the ball and made a 60-degree jumper from the right for a three-pointer, and the ball went into the net hollow! 0 to 7.

Only five seconds later, Gordon made a low-level mistake in passing the ball. After halftime, he passed it to Harris without looking at anyone. He was successfully intercepted by Duhon and made a fast break alone.

Gordon was stupid again during the return defense. The opponent was about to take the ball for a layup. He chose to draw a foul, and the foul was very minor. He didn't knock the ball away. 2+1.

Duhong also hit a penalty. 0 to 10.

Simon covered his face with one hand, and couldn't bear to watch. "The situation is not good. The Wolverines were beaten 10-0 by their opponents at the beginning. Except for the inside blue-collar Benson, the Blue Devils' other starters scored goals."

Justin sighed: "The coach called a timeout. This timeout was called very timely. The Wolverines had to adjust. There were problems on both offense and defense during this period."

At 2 minutes and 18 seconds into the game, David was forced to request a timeout, and the first thing he did was to make a substitution.

"Exit Gordon, Luke is on the field, you are responsible for holding the ball and playing pick-and-rolls, you can misplace and break through the inside, attracting the attention of the defense to score the ball, don't be nervous, we can win!"

Facing NBA-level guard Duhon, Gordon was obviously intimidated by the opponent's name. David has to do some ideological work for him, lest his state continue throughout the game and directly cause the team to lose.

"Bobby, you also rest off the court. Eric comes on, double pick-and-roll inside. Eric pays attention to the side and cuts to the basket. Chris waits for an opportunity in the middle."

Eric Bronin is 205cm tall and weighs 113kg. He has a stronger physique than Bobby. He has been working hard on mid-range shooting and is waiting for the coach's call on the bench.

Even a pair of underwear and a piece of toilet paper have their uses, let alone a big man?

David used to need inside mobility to use Bronin, but now Duke University’s inside players are not good at mid-range and long-range shooting, and the breakthrough ability of the two guards is not unsolvable. Bronin has a place to play.

Wang Jun had a hard time defending against the skilled Sheldon, so he simply used Bronin to push the opponent away from the penalty area, and relying on height to interfere, the effect would be better.

David said to Wang Jun again: "Wang, now I need you to focus on the defensive end and limit Dengtai Jones. His shooting ability is average, and he can prevent breakthroughs but not prevent shots. Don't be easily passed by him. Can you do it?" ?”

"Yes." Wang Jun responded loudly.

He was originally an outside line. At this time, David arranged the task of defending the outside line, and there was no reason to back down.

David looked at Wang Jun and said lightly: "The opponent has arranged to guard against you, don't force shots, wait for opportunities on the outside, we are already behind, we must ensure efficiency to win."

Wang Jun nodded. He understood what David meant, and was afraid that he would disregard the team's tactical system in order to obtain beautiful data.

He won't do that. What if the statistics are beautiful and you lose the game if you don't make it to the top 16?
