Driven by the home DJ, the home audience continued to cheer for the home team.
"Now the point difference has been maintained at 10 points, it depends on who can find a way to break the deadlock first." The commentator said looking at the situation on the field.
"Washington State University is already making adjustments." The commentator said at this time.
The commentator turned his head in doubt, and then followed the guests' gazes towards the front court.
The guard of Washington State University made another desperate breakthrough and caused Oriachi to foul.
Oriachi received two fouls in a row, and the cumulative number of fouls has reached 3 times.
"Alex, pay attention to the number of fouls you make." Ollie yelled to remind him from the sidelines.
After two rounds, Kangda had already noticed the adjustment of the opponent. Bena saw that Oriachi had an advantage in offensive rebounds, and wanted to knock him off the field directly.
Oriage heard Oli's reminder, and he became very careful in the next round, but Washington State University's tactical execution was very strong, and they kept attacking, and Olande's help defense was too late.
Although he was careful and careful, because of his slow speed, he still got his fourth foul when he played 10 minutes into the second half.
The NCAA was about to be sent off for five fouls, and with 10 minutes left in the game, Calhoun didn't dare to take the risk of keeping Oriachi on the court and replaced him with Forsyth.
Forses moved faster than Oriachi, but he was much shorter. With Oriachi off the court, their offensive rebounding advantage also disappeared.
In Kangda's offense, Tang Tian took the initiative to pick and roll Walker and let the latter change his defender.
Walker took the opportunity to break through to the basket.
But Thompson didn't bother Tang Tian to double-team Walker at this time.
Walker didn't choose to divide the ball in the double-team, but chose to make a strong attack, and the ball failed to score in the end.
"Benner is really a very good coach. After he beat Connecticut's Oriachi, the pressure on the defensive end immediately became smaller." The guest commentator said after watching this round.
"Yes, Tang has no offensive ability. They can double-team Walker unscrupulously. The stalemate has been broken." The commentator continued.
"Grandpa, are we going to replace Tang?" Ollie said to Calhoun at this time, Tang Tian can't attack, 4v5 on the field, Walker's performance is too limited.
Calhoun didn't speak. When the players retreated to the half court, he yelled at Walker: "Kemba, pay attention to the ball."
Walker was called out by Calhoun, and he also remembered Tang Tian's instructions at halftime.
Because Thompson was defending him alone, he forgot those reminders, and Calhoun's yelling called him back.
In Washington State University's offense, Thompson was defended by Tang Tian, and Washington State University's offense at other points failed to score, and Forsyth protected the rebound.
62 to 56, the point difference on the field is 6 points.
Walker took the ball to the frontcourt, Tang Tian continued to put up the pick-and-roll, and Walker continued to break through.
Thompson released Tang Tian to double-team.
Walker looked back, only to realize that Tang Tian was at the three-point line.
Tang Tian hadn't demonstrated his three-point shooting ability before, but he knew Tang Tian's golf quotient.
Tang Tian would take the initiative to come up for the pick-and-roll, and the fact that he landed in that position showed that he was sure of it.
He chose to trust Tang Tian, and passed the ball out of the double-team with a flick of his hand.
The ball reached Tang Tian's hands.
A completely vacant opportunity.
"It's a pity." The guest commentator couldn't help but said when he saw this, Tang Tian didn't have the ability to attack, if the pick-and-roller was Smith or Lamb, then this ball was a very good opportunity. It was announced that Kangda's tactics of more than ten seconds were in vain.
The fans at the scene were also delighted. Tang Tian doesn't know how to attack. If the ball is passed to him, is it a waste of attack time?
Ollie also pouted helplessly, but Cajon just didn't listen to him. If Smith had been replaced earlier, the goal might have been scored.
Cajon looked at the field expectantly.
After Tang Tian received the ball, he directly chose to shoot!
This is his first three-point shot in the NCAA arena!
Everyone seemed very surprised, because this conflicted with what they knew.
A choice in desperation?
This thought flashed through most people's minds, such a big vacancy, it's not appropriate not to vote!
But soon their thoughts disappeared.
Take off, raise your hands, straighten your arms, and move your wrists.
Tang Tian's shooting moves are as standard as Thompson's!
Even as fast!
The ball whirled in the air and crossed a long parabola, and fell straight towards the net bag under the astonished eyes of everyone.
"Shh!"
A crisp sound echoed in the stadium.
Tang Tian's three-point shot hit the net hollow!
He scored his first goal in the NCAA game!
The point difference was widened to 9 points again!
Everyone at the scene was stunned.
"Beautiful!" Calhoun was the first to react, the anticipation in his eyes turned into a glimmer of joy, and he couldn't help waving his fists and shouting.
Kangda's bench was also boiling in the next moment.
The ball was thrown like clouds and flowing water, and it looked extremely comfortable.
"He can still score?" The guest commentator didn't expect that he would underestimate Tang Tian again, and couldn't help asking in astonishment.
"It seems to be." The narrator said with a wry smile.
Chapter 19 Three Point Shooters
After the fans reacted, there was a burst of restlessness.
Tang Tian will score!
He has been hiding his strength in the previous games!
I don't know why, but it seems to be the case!
Bernard was going crazy.
This Tang Tian, defending Thompson in the first half was beyond his expectations, and even made a three-pointer in the second half!
Suddenly showing two abilities that he hadn't shown in the previous competition, this is completely against him!
"Leave him alone! Continue to double-team!" He got up and shouted at the players on the sidelines
He still doesn't believe it. A player who has never made a three-pointer in the previous game can really make a three-pointer in a row?No such reason!
Washington State's offense still didn't score.
After Tang Tian came on the field, the other UConn players could safely let him defend alone, and the defensive strength of other points could also be guaranteed.
After Forsyth took the rebound, Walker continued to hold the ball and advance to the frontcourt.
Tang Tian also continued to put him on the pick-and-roll.
At this time, the tactics become very simple. It depends on how you choose Benner, whether to continue to cover Walker or directly switch defenses. If you continue to cover, Tang Tian will continue to shoot. If you don’t cover, Walker will directly attack the opponent’s forward.
Thompson implemented Benner's tactical intention and chose to pack Walker. Walker was prepared and passed the ball in advance.
This pass was even more comfortable than the previous one, and Tang Tian was completely open after receiving the ball.
Everyone on the scene stared at Tang Tian who was catching the ball.
"Are you still voting?" In the commentary seat, the guest commentator couldn't help but ask.
The answer is to vote.
There is no reason for Tang Tian not to vote for such a big vacancy!
Aim at the frame, take off, and shoot.
It felt exactly the same as when he was in the training hall, the basket in front of him was like an ocean.
"Shh!"
Washington State University made tactical adjustments in the second half to prevent Thompson from attacking. This is the correct way of thinking, but in this way, Tang Tian’s energy consumption on the defensive end is very small, and the open three-point shooting rate is basically 97% of the initial .
No bullets.
The three-pointer was hollowed out again!
The point difference was instantly stretched to 12 points.
"Fuck!"
Bena was so angry that he swears directly, and then stretched out his hand to call a timeout.
Tang Tian can really make a shot!
These two three-pointers are equivalent to canceling all his efforts in the second half.
The University of Kangda's bench was crazy. When Tang Tianxia was on the field, they all ran over to give him a chest-bump and high-five. They were so excited.
"Good job." Calhoun also directly praised Tang Tian.
He is now a little glad to see Tang Tian shooting that night, otherwise, like Ollie, he might have replaced Tang Tian in advance, and they wouldn't have brought the situation back.
"Don, why do you practice three-pointers?" Ollie said more directly.
"I've been practicing, I know the team will need it." Tang Tian replied casually.
At this time, the other teammates all showed a hint of admiration to him.
This is hidden!
Back from the timeout, Washington State University scored a goal in the frontcourt, and the point difference was narrowed to 10 points. They temporarily stabilized the situation.
Looking back, Kangda also played Tang Tian and Walker's pick-and-roll!
This idea is very clear, didn't you use Thompson to defend against Walker, I just didn't let you do it, and forced you to change!
After Tang Tian smashed the ball, he continued to drop to the three-point line. This time, Thompson did not double-team.
After seeing it, Walker decisively changed direction and rushed to the opponent's forward, using his speed advantage to get to the inside and score a layup!
It means that Thompson can guard against Walker, and the rest of Washington State University is not at the same level as Walker!
Bernard bowed his head helplessly on the sidelines.
After Tang Tian scored three-pointers in a row, even if he didn't make another shot, he was still an absolute threat standing on the court. It was impossible for Thompson to double-team.
But if he doesn't double-team, Walker will kill the Quartet as he did in the first half.
Looking up at Calhoun, who was also standing on the sidelines in the other half, he suddenly felt a little envious. Why doesn't Washington State University have such a player?
Can defend and shoot three-pointers, this is a standard 3D player, no matter where he is, he is the coach's favorite category.
Washington State University's offense, in a desperate situation, Thompson forcibly hit a three-pointer against Tang Tian's defense to continue the life of the home team.
But looking back, after Walker attracted the opponent's inside defense, he gave the ball to Holland under the basket, who dunked unguarded.
Thompson turned around and wanted to continue the three-pointer, but this time Tang Tian didn't give him a chance at all, and the high-pressure defense directly blocked his forced shot.
Kangda's fast break, Walker gave it to Lamb, and Lamb gave it to Tang Tian who followed up. Tang Tian's chasing open three-pointer, he still didn't hesitate to make a shot.
In the almost desperate eyes of the fans at the scene, the basketball crossed a standard parabola in the air, and then fell into the bag hollowly.
Tang's third three-pointer in the second half!
Three hits from three shots!
God!
Boehner had already been voted a bit out of temper. He sat back on the bench to check the time, and didn't even call a timeout.
The fans at the scene were completely stunned. Thompson was pinned down by Tang Tian, Washington State University's offensive tactics were not effective, and the defense couldn't do anything about Walker. The last few minutes of the game completely lost suspense.
