One Guard

Chapter 33 : Anxious halftime

In the stands, countless Bulldogs fans are jumping up and down excitedly. Those scouts in suits and shoes are also burying their heads in recording this great discovery. In the commentary area, people are discussing topics in Yiyang. Even Hayward and Wesley had to stand aside at this moment.

The score has become 8 to 7. The strong lead that Syracuse University took at the beginning of the game has now disappeared.

All these things reminded Syracuse University old coach Jim Boheim that he must change the team’s defensive focus!

“Blocking is also a breakthrough! Actively make up for defense, and make physical contact with him as much as possible! Wesley, you continue to follow Hayward. As for the others, don’t take your eyes away from the number one. Warren, take a break from the field first. Baggs! Go on the field and you have only one mission to control the breakthrough!” Boheim nervously wrote and painted on the tactical board. He thought it was only for Hayward to misfire. , Then defeating the Bulldogs will not be difficult.

But now, the situation has exceeded Boheim’s expectations. Before that, he only knew that Yiyang was an excellent organizer. But starting today, Boheim will never think that he is just an organizer! The autonomous offensive ability of that number one guard is as good as his passing organization!

Willie Warren sat down on the bench dejectedly, even though the head coach said he was giving himself a break. But everyone understood that he was replaced because he was turned into a sieve by Yiyang.

Jeff Bags, who replaced Warren, is an experienced senior. Baggs’s shooting percentage is unstable, and his breakthrough pace is not fast. But this white defender who keeps an inch is always able to complete defensive tasks very well with his strong body.

Boheim did not hesitate to bring Bags up, just hoping that Yiyang would be miserable. As for the offense, as long as Wesley Johnson is there, Boheim doesn’t need to worry about offense.

After a while, the electronic buzzer, which represents the end of the timeout, resounded throughout the audience. The players on both sides slowly dispersed and returned to their “battlefield”.

Stevens saw Syracuse University’s adjustment at a glance. The strong Baggs seemed to be the key to the Oranges to reverse the situation.

After 　　, Mou Ran, who came to the scene to shoot, was also very excited. Baggs’s appearance will undoubtedly bring more trouble to Yiyang, but the opposing coach’s change of tactics specifically for Yiyang is also a proof of Yiyang’s strength.

In the NCAA, it was the first time that a Chinese player made the opposing coach such a headache.

The game restarted, and the players of the Oranges still looked confident. As a senior player, Baggs is naturally quite sophisticated in possession of the ball.

Compared to the reckless Willie Warren, Yiyang couldn’t see any flaws in Baggs. If you want to defend this kind of guy, you have to fight steadily. If you rush to grab it, it will only give the opponent a chance to make a breakthrough.

So, Yiyang opened his arms as far as possible to cross the three-point line and kept a very suitable distance from Baggs.

Yiyang’s wingspan is absolutely outstanding in the guard position. When he fully opened his arms, Baggs, who was in a mediocre body, couldn’t help casting envy in his eyes.

Baggs did not have any chance to continue, so he passed the ball directly and gave the ball to Wright Philips, who was in the post.

With its advantages in tonnage, Philips has already tasted the sweetness inside today. Seeing Matt Howard panting, Philips made a decisive decision and wanted to fight another one by himself!

Matt Howard’s slightly shorter height and light weight make him often the target of the opposing center’s striker. Seeing that Philips intends to play singles, the players of the Oranges also consciously opened up, creating enough singles space for their center. .

Philips devoted his mind and heart to the war in the three-second zone, and he used his tonnage advantage to push hard. Matt Howard really failed to hold it, and took a big step back.

In just one step, Wright Philips advanced to his ideal position. This big man in an orange jersey held the ball with both hands, turned around unhurriedly, ready to complete the hook with his right hand!

Everything seems to be going well, Philips is even ready to enjoy the cheers after the goal. However, the moment he just turned around, the yellow-skinned Bulldogs guard appeared in front of him!

“What!?” Philips swore that when he hit Matt on the back, Yiyang was still in front of Baggs. After such a short time, Yiyang caught him unconsciously. Yiyang’s double-teaming speed is so fast that Philips has no preparation.

Before I realized what was happening, the basketball in Philips’s hands was slapped away by Yiyang! After intercepting the basketball, Yiyang immediately started speeding up, and the entire court seemed to be blown with a breeze.

“Wright’s passing vision should be broader. He is so obsessed with singles at the basket that his teammates don’t know if he is free! Now, he has once again obtained the opportunity to switch offense through a beautiful cut!” Reggie Miller stared at the court expectantly. God knows what else the No. 1 guard can do today.

Baggs started running back the moment Yiyang intercepted the basketball, but he started from outside the three-point line and was surpassed by Yiyang Shengsheng who started from the three-second zone.

Yiyang and Baggs are already empty in front of them. To stop this attack, Baggs has no choice but to foul.

Yiyang continued to accelerate, even if Baggs had leaned toward him aggressively, he was not timid at all. You know, in this high-speed state, the body’s ability to resist is not as good as Bags’s Yiyang. If it is hit, the strength is unpredictable.

Baggs is ready for a foul. Only when Yiyang leaves the ground, Baggs will drag the Asian defender down! At this moment, Yiyang, who was already very close to the basket, suddenly shot the basketball to his crotch during the dribble.

Basketball has not been changed to Yiyang’s right hand. This is not a crotch hand change, but a crotch backward pass!

Baggs stopped the car immediately, but when he turned around, Shelvin Mark, who was behind him, had already received the basketball and jumped into the air. Even if Baggs wanted to foul, it was too late!

“No, look, pass! Yi’s eyes deceive everyone, he is not Westbrook, he will not be obsessed with hitting the rim! A very beautiful pass from behind the crotch, maybe this guy is really behind his head He has a pair of eyes!” Yiyang sent out an assist with an action like playing on a street basketball court, so the beneficiary Shelvin Mark smiled from ear to ear, even Reggie Miller couldn’t believe Yiyang actually did. Dare to pass in such a tight and critical match.

But it turns out that Yiyang’s choice worked. This kid who walks out of the street court always plays very fancy, but he has the calmness of a professional player.

A guy who can play the pass in a serious official game, people can’t help but start to imagine Yiyang’s future. Names such as Nash, White Chocolate and Rubio have been increasingly compared with Yiyang.

After the adjustment of the Oranges, not only did they not close the score, they were further widened by the Bulldogs.

Fortunately, after a long time of immersion, Wesley Johnson finally stood up. This guy’s key goal from beyond the three-point line allowed the Oranges to bite the score in time and temporarily stabilized their position.

The Syracuse No. 4 still maintains his super high shooting percentage. For Wesley, who is pointing to the championship, he will never allow the team to lose to a freshman. The score was tied in an instant. This three-pointer reminded everyone that the game has not been completely controlled by the Bulldogs!

After 　　, Yiyang, who had encountered strict defenses, did not continue his crazy scoring performance. But because Boheim increased the frequency of replenishment against Yiyang, so the rest of the Bulldogs team got a lot more opportunities than before.

Yiyang can always see gaps on the court. Due to Hayward’s poor touch, Shelvin Mark, the captain, has become the player with the most shots in the Bulldogs team.

Although Mark did not sign up for the draft this year, he is also a guy who works hard for the NBA. His steady mid-range shots and powerful breakthroughs on the court have allowed the Bulldogs to continuously increase their points. Of course, Yiyang’s assists also rose.

Under the banner of Syracuse University, Wesley Johnson’s performance is simply impeccable. As long as he takes the least amount of space, this thin small forward can always throw the ball in.

The two sides played inextricably on the court. Yiyang and Wesley became a problem that the coaches of the two teams could not solve for the time being.

When the fierce 20-minute half-time match ended, the score was fixed at 40 to 38. With a two-point buzzer from Wesley Johnson, Syracuse University walked into the locker room with a slight advantage.

Yiyang played 16 minutes in the half and scored 10 points and 6 assists. And Wesley Johnson has scored 14 points on 6 of 7 shots.

“Regardless of whether it is from the team statistics of the two sides or the personal data of Wesley and Yi, they are equally indifferent. This game is very fierce. It seems that the two sides will not be able to tell the winner until the last minute! Reggie Miller looked at the statistics he got in his hand and made a summary for the half-time game.

Watching the cheerleader girls enter the show, Reggie Miller took off the headphones and rubbed his eyes.

The confrontation in the first half of the game has already made Reggie Miller overwhelmed.

Wesley’s kaleidoscope attack, Yiyang pass the ball. These images have kept the entire game in a state of climax.

What about after the orgasm? Reggie Miller could not imagine. When the second half of the game of life and death begins, what will this game be like in the end!

Syracuse No. 4 and Butler’s No. 1, are not so easy to fall.
