The rest is just noise

Louis is very interested in Syracuse University, not only because they have trained many Chinese players, but also because they were able to win the national championship in a previous life with a lineup that did not seem to have an advantage.

Although they have Anthony, a historic freshman, apart from Anthony, Syracuse University has only one player with NBA prospects.

Their overall talent is incomparable to those who easily put together a starting lineup with NBA prospects.

Syracuse's ability to win the championship is related to the decisive game format of March Madness and the nature of basketball.

Although talents are good, if they are stacked, they will not be as effective as they should be.

Moreover, in college basketball, the personal abilities and game influence of those talented players are sometimes not as good as those senior students who are not as talented but have strong fighting ability.

Another important point is that the more players with NBA prospects, the harder it is to allocate their playing time.

After all, everyone's future is in the NBA, why do you have more time than me?

Compared with Syracuse, the University of Memphis is much more talented. Not to mention the flawless way to predict the top three in the draft, and not to mention Xiao Yi who has lottery potential based on his body alone. If Lin Ziye continues to play like this, there is also hope for the lottery.

, plus several other players with NBA prospects, in terms of talent, they are far above Syracuse.

As soon as the game started, Syracuse asked Lin Ziye to guard Anthony.

Lin Ziye is versatile in both offense and defense, but individual defense is his personal weakness.

His strength lies in using his physical condition to sweep and assist in defense. If he is asked to mark the opponent's arrows one-on-one, the defensive effect will not be much better.

Anthony immediately showed off his outstanding singles skills in front of everyone, and Lin Ziye scored three goals in a row.

At the other end, Lu Wuxia was not in a hurry to launch a personal attack. He first played a pick-and-roll with Chris Marin, the big brother in the inside. When Marin passed down, he used a highly concealed hand to hit the ground behind the back and pass the ball to the inside.

, Marin eats cake easily.

Later, he lobbed the ball to Lin Ziye and asked him to attack Anthony, who was careless on the defensive end.

Lin Ziye also seized the opportunity and showed his true skills in front of Louis.

As a forward with a height of 204 centimeters, his hand and foot coordination is undoubtedly at a historical level for a yellow man.

What's even more exaggerated is that his dribbling speed is almost the same as that of a guard who is over 190 centimeters tall.

Anthony was wiped out by one step, and Lin Ziye reached inside and handed the ball with his right hand to his left hand in the air, then lightly picked up the basket and scored.

After watching this scene, Louis' brain was a little out of control.

It’s not surprising that he was surprised. Although Lin Ziye used to play this way in high school, he was only 196 centimeters tall at that time. After entering college, he actually grew to 204 centimeters. Even if his playing style remains the same, his movement speed will also remain the same.

.

What kind of talent is this?

Judging from his style of play, if his shooting is accurate enough, he will look like a smaller version of Durant.

The long-awaited battle between the two heroes, which the media had long awaited, ended up pitting Anthony against Lin Ziye at the opening scene.

The "Son of God" that attracted everyone's attention was not aggressive in the first five minutes, but sent 4 assists.

Some scouts believe that maybe this is the second-generation star. He has no sense of crisis and no worries about exposure. No matter how he plays, he will have a group of famous uncles to help him. Anthony is different. He values ​​this game more than anyone else.

Therefore, his desire for performance is also the strongest.

After seven minutes of play, Lin Ziye committed two fouls.

Defending Anthony is still too difficult for him.

Calipari immediately made a substitution, and Xiao Yi came on to replace Lin Ziye, who had two fouls.

As soon as Xiaoyi came on the court, the University of Memphis' style of play immediately changed.

First of all, Lu Wuxia no longer stands outside.

The person facing Lu Wuxia is white guard Gerry McNamara (PG), who is famous for his shooting.

Lu Wuxia used an underhand dribble to induce McNamara to lower his center of gravity. Suddenly, his center of gravity lifted up, making a move to break through to the left with the ball. When the opponent forcibly turned his center of gravity and tried to move sideways to defend. , he directly stepped back laterally to the right, collected the ball, and a lightning-fast three-pointer left his hand in less than one second, swoosh!

"Wish is on fire!"

The Son of God, who had just bullied his opponent who was short and unable to jump high, looked at Anthony with a satisfied look on his face, "Mello, your defensive arrangement is really great. My offensive pressure is so great. Please don't substitute people to defend me." I, really, he put too much defensive pressure on me!"

Because Louis was sitting in the front row, he could clearly hear his son talking trash.

He wanted to know who taught this brat to talk trash like this.

Compared with the obscene trash talk that directly greets people in the three directions, this kind of disturbing yin and yang aura is more likely to anger the opponent, right?

Anthony decided to vent his anger on his teammates.

After Lin Ziye left the game, the University of Memphis' matchup strategy also changed.

Xiaoyi comes up to play center and sits in the penalty area, while second-year Chris Marin plays center, but he is only over two meters tall, has good movement speed, and has the ability to fight, so he is just right to match up with Anthony.

Anthony can no longer rely on physical confrontation to push people away. However, what is really impressive about him is the continuity of collecting the ball, taking the ball, and shooting despite his height.

Before Marin could adopt HC defense against him, Anthony's ball had already passed his head.

"Whoosh!"

What almost all fans know about Anthony, or rather his label, is his offensive kaleidoscope.

So does Louis.

But Louis's views before and after the time travel are completely different.

He's seen a veritable kaleidoscope of offense.

For example, he observed Benjamin Wilson's games at very close range for nearly fifteen years.

Although Louis' basketball skills are close to amateur, he has watched too many players and he gradually understands the ropes.

Anthony's various ball-handling attacks did not amaze him. On the contrary, he also saw problems in the opponent's pace.

Take the use of the pivot foot as an example. Anthony did very poorly. It can be said that he almost never used the pivot foot. If it were Wilson, when he was holding the ball monotonously, once he started to collect the ball and use his steps, his The pivot foot often extends to the opponent's crotch. In this way, when he gets up to shoot, the pivot foot will suppress and block the opponent's take-off time, thereby regaining the time difference and creating shooting opportunities for himself.

Anthony's feet always land in a straight line before attacking, and he also takes off with both feet, so he cannot rely on his footing to block the defender and create a time difference for his shot.

At first glance, this problem seems to only affect face-to-basket shooting and back-up attacks. In fact, this method of using the lower body to block opponents and create space for oneself is a standard feature of the offensive kaleidoscope.

Since Anthony's feet lack these necessary details, when he wants to break through with the ball, he has to rely entirely on his physical fitness. Because his footsteps are so predictable, the breakthrough is completely unpredictable.

These problems do not affect Anthony's reputation, because they will only become problems in higher-level leagues and higher-intensity confrontations. Moreover, even if there are problems, Anthony also has extraordinary collection and kicking skills.

Ball speed? This ensures that as long as he has the touch, he can become a strong pitcher regardless of defense at any level of the game.

It can be said that as long as the stars are from poor backgrounds, they will have more or less technical problems of this kind in this age group. Because there is no one around them who can point out their technical problems, they can only go to more advanced competitions with their problems.

trial.

And this is Lu Wuxia's biggest advantage.

Compared with other peers, Lu Wuxia's technical comprehensiveness, completeness and maturity are terrifying.

He is like the second-year Doncic and Chui Yang. The former followed James Harden's path and mastered all the skills needed to hold the ball as the core early. The latter followed the blueprint drawn by Stephen Curry for small guards.

Before entering the NBA, he mastered all the skills needed to be a core defender in the small ball era.

Even they need trial and error in technical aspects.

Lu Wuxia doesn't need it, because he has the most advanced technology in the contemporary era, a comprehensive arsenal, and can find a solution to anyone he meets. He only needs to adapt to the intensity of the competition, and does not have to worry about his poor skills, because his skills are

There are not many people in the NBA who can compare.

After watching the halftime game between Memphis and Syracuse, Louis had to admit one thing: his son is really a basketball genius no less than Carmelo Anthony.

This means that Lu Wuxia has locked up the top four picks in the 2003 draft.
