The yellow storm in the NBA

Chapter 27, Dignity Strikes Back!

In basketball games, in addition to various dunks and blocks, the continuous rain of three-pointers can actually stimulate the audience's senses, making people excited and excited.

Especially the unreasonable three-pointers that face the defender or even ignore him are even more exciting. No, Quan Xiao's performance today made the audience at the scene and in front of the TV excited and climaxed one after another.

The Texas supporters' outburst of momentum reached another climax. The huge roar seemed to overturn the Georgia Dome. The superstars on the sidelines were also excited. As compatriots,

Yao Ming was even more excited and dancing, which surprised Tracy McGrady next to him.

The score difference has reached 12 points, and there is still one and a half minutes left. The defending champion did not pause in the first half. This can only rely on the players to adjust themselves.

Fortunately, as the defending champions, their players' psychological quality was quite good and they were not defeated. They faced the difficulties and, under the organization of point guard Green, strictly implemented the tactics arranged by the coach, and Brewer finally scored.

A golden three points.

After returning to the defensive end, each one bit his opponents like a mad dog. This crazy defense almost caused an offensive violation on the Texas side. In the end, Augustin missed the buzzer-beating shot and the game ended.

this attack.

You know, the NCAA implements a 35-second offensive system, which shows how terrible Florida's defense is.

Perhaps the reason that really allows them to show their strength at this moment is that they are the defending champions and they want to maintain their dignity as the defending champions. Whether it is a person or a team, as long as there is shame, then they will not let

If you fall into despair, you will not give up easily.

The momentum shown by Florida at the moment is the momentum of going forward. Even if I can't defeat you, I will tear off a piece of your skin.

What's more, there is still a whole second half. They will not be defeated so easily, nor will they give up so easily. This is the dignity of being the defending champion.

Horford picked up the defensive rebound, handed the ball to Green, and then ran towards the opponent's basket as quickly as possible.

Florida State University's idea is very clear. After this attack, they can then defend against the opponent's attack. In this way, at least they don't have to start the second half with a double-digit point difference. Anyone who has played football knows that behind by an odd number and behind by an even number.

The psychological pressure on people is completely different.

The people in Texas also understood the importance of this goal. They worked hard to keep up with their defensive targets and did not dare to relax even a little bit.

Of course they hope to lead as much as possible. They are still 9 points ahead of the opponent and they still have an offensive opportunity.

Yes, if we can defend against this attack and score another goal, our chances of winning will increase.

After all, the overall strength of the defending champion is slightly better. Even if Durant and Quan Xiao can crush their opponents in their own positions, they cannot overcome the huge gap in other positions.

In the end, they failed to hold on to the goal, and Brewer once again made a contribution. He scored his second sports goal of the game, bringing the point difference back to 7 points, leaving Texas with 12 points.

seconds of attack time.

Keep this goal! This is the voice of all Florida State players.

Score this goal! This is the belief of all Texas players.

This time, Texas started the offense with Durant. The last offense of the first half was naturally handled by their ace. Florida obviously expected it, so it defended Durant very tightly.

Brewer stuck to Durant and did not give him any room to break through. Horford and Noah were in the penalty area and were ready to defend at any time. If Durant shot, Brewer's

Under the interference, Horford and Noah had enough time to rush forward to cover the defense.

Time passed little by little, and when the stopwatch reached 5, Durant accelerated. He quickly rushed to the basket with the ball, looking like he was going to make a breakthrough dunk.

Although Brewer followed him every step of the way, he still couldn't withstand Durant's impact. Horford rushed out when he saw the bad situation, but Durant still jumped up to meet the flying Horford.

Brewer asked Durant to jump up and he also jumped up, trying to block the shot.

However, Durant did not shoot, but transferred the ball to the open Powell in the air. He chose to believe in his teammates. Although he could barely take the shot himself to ensure that he would not be blocked, the success rate was not high.

big.

After receiving the ball, Powell made a small adjustment before shooting. The red light came on the moment the ball was thrown, and the first half of the game was over.

"No go in! No go in!" "Go in! Go in!" The shouts outside the court kept coming, but obviously these voices could not affect the ball that had been thrown. The final result depended on the person who threw the ball.

Obviously, today's luck was on Texas' side. Powell's buzzer-beating three-pointer was successful, and the point difference returned to double digits, 55:45, with Texas leading by 10 points.

During the halftime break, neither team made any major adjustments to their tactics. Up to this point in the game, both teams understand that the tactical bonus to the team is actually minimal. It depends more on the performance of the players of both teams.

.

Only some adjustments were made to the personnel, and the Texas side replaced them again.

Pittman replaced Powell and obviously wanted to strengthen the defense.

On the other hand, Florida State University has not made any personnel adjustments and still has the starting five. As for today's game, whether superstar basketball defeats team basketball or team basketball defeats superstar basketball, everything depends on the final result.

At the beginning of the second half, Florida kicked off. They chose to start from the inside. After all, this is their advantage, and relatively speaking, the offensive efficiency in the inside is higher. What Florida University needs now is the success rate.

In the first half of the game, Quan Xiao spent most of the time on the outside, defending shooting guard Humphrey. In the second half of the game, Coach Barnes made a small adjustment and moved Quan Xiao to the fourth position on the defensive end, allowing him to

He mainly defends Horford, and the offensive end depends on the situation, but he still mainly plays shooting guard.

Among the two insiders at the University of Florida, Horford is more threatening on the offensive end and has more scoring methods, while Noah focuses more on the defensive end. Although Damai James is good at defense, his height is a flaw after all.

, so he was beaten accurately by Horford.

Although Quan Xiao's height is almost the same as him, his wingspan, strength, jumping and athleticism are much higher. What's more, in terms of defense, Quan Xiao is also better than Damai James. Only in the first half.

The field needs his offense more, so he is not asked to guard inside.

Horford was a little surprised when he saw Quan Xiao coming to defend him, but he quickly calmed down, stood up in the penalty area, and began to ask for the ball from his teammates. His teammates also cooperated with him and handed the ball to him immediately.

into his hands.

After receiving the ball, Horford squeezed hard with his back, but found that he could not squeeze away Quan Xiao behind him, so he bumped hard while dribbling the ball, trying to create an opportunity for himself by relying on the force of the collision, but he still failed.

Quan Xiao knocked away, obviously the opponent's strength exceeded his expectations.

Quan Xiao's body shape does not look as strong as that of European and American athletes, but has the smooth body lines of Asians. However, his weight is not light. It has now reached 102Kg, and his body fat content is only about 5%.

Therefore, his strength is actually very strong, and he is one of the best in the team. In terms of core strength alone, Pittman cannot compare to Quan Xiao, so it is logical that Horford cannot beat Quan Xiao.

After discovering that he couldn't hit Quan Xiao, Horford decided to attack in a different way, so he used a turn over jumper. He leaned on Quan Xiao, turned around suddenly with his left foot as the axis, put his right foot on the ground hard, jumped up and threw the ball.

Within this distance, Horford's shooting percentage is still very guaranteed, so Quan Xiao, who was unable to block the shot, was unable to stop the attack, allowing Horford to successfully score two points.

This is a good sign, but will this be the beginning of Buddha's counterattack?
