After being chased by San Diego State University for three consecutive points, they turned their opponents back 5-0!
Leonard was in the low post, and Tang Tian tried his best not to let him go to the penalty area.
After the first half, he was very impressed with Leonard's current offensive strength.
After Leonard received the ball, he turned around and was stuck by Tang Tian, unable to enter the penalty area. He could only choose to turn around and hit the rebound to shoot. Tang Tian stretched out his hand to interfere.
"boom!"
Leonard's shot hit the board and bounced high off the front of the basket.
At this time, Wright caught Mazhuk, grabbed the defensive position, and his judgment was very accurate. He raised his hand and prepared to take the offensive rebound.
But at that moment, Majuk jumped up from behind him again, grabbing the ball before his hands touched it.
The fans of Kangda burst into cheers when they saw this scene.
There is no position, and there is no good angle, but just relying on bouncing, it is really hard to grab rebounds!
Wright's expression was a little confused at this moment.
It's completely unreasonable for him to have all the rebounding advantages and not get the rebound in the end.
Ma Zhuke got the rebound and raised the ball over his head according to Tang Tian's request, but Wright couldn't get it after a few jumps.
This is really just a simple jump...
Chapter 69 A wave of flow
UConn's offense, Walker's breakthrough under the basket did not make it, looking back at San Diego State University's defensive counterattack, Franklin's breakthrough caused Lamb's thugs.
Two free throw opportunities.
"Can I jump? Offensive rebound?" Ma Zhuke asked Tang Tian while the ball was dead.
This Ma Zhuke was extra cautious because he was worried that he would be replaced if he did something wrong on the court.
Tang Tian nodded with a smile, one more offensive rebound would give him one more possession of the ball. This kind of thing is completely beneficial and harmless.
Franklin made two free throws, the point difference between the two sides is still 3 points, and the situation on the court is still deadlocked.
After Walker broke through the frontcourt, he was blocked by Leonard and had no chance. He dribbled the ball and came out again. More than half of the attack time passed.
In a stalemate situation, it depends on who can take the lead.
Tang Tian gave Lamb a pick-and-roll at this time, Lamb ran out of space, Walker passed the ball, and after receiving the ball, Lamb faced the opponent's power forward's emergency stop jumper.
"boom!"
The angle and feel of this shot are very good, but unfortunately, a little luck, the ball bounced high inside the basket.
Wright blocked Majuk, and Leonard stretched out his big hand to receive the defensive rebound.
But at this moment, Mazhuk jumped up from behind Wright and grabbed the rebound before Leonard!
Only bounces, but top notch bounces!
Mazhuk grabs the offensive rebound and flicks the ball to Lamb.
His personality is really good, Tang Tian doesn't let him do other things except love to dance, he really doesn't even have the desire to look at the basket.
Lamb froze for a moment when he received the ball, but he reacted fairly quickly, grabbing the shot before the San Diego State players could react.
"Shh!"
Lamb's second shot went hollow.
The point difference was stretched to 5 points again.
"Rebound, protect the rebound!" This time it was the head coach of San Diego State University's turn to shout from the sidelines.
The fans of UConn cheered, and their bench was also boiling.
Ma Zhuke's offensive rebounds are striking after the rebound, and he grabs the second one, which is simply not too handsome.
Calhoun's frowning brows finally relaxed at this time.
Although I don't know what Tang Tian said to Ma Zhuke, Ma Zhuke's defense and offense grabbed 3 rebounds in a row, and his performance was quite perfect.
Franklin continued to drive to the rim, and this time he drove the ball in after avoiding Mazhuk's outstretched hand with a small lever in the air.
Mazhuk can only jump, and his defense is relatively ordinary.
The situation is still deadlocked, and the point difference back and forth made the fans on the scene a little nervous and breathless.
Kangda's offense, Walker's shot after he forced Leonard was interfered with.
At this time, Mazhuk squeezed past Wright sideways, and what bounced did not seem to be a basketball, but a gold nugget full of temptation.
"Snapped!"
With a slap, he grabbed another offensive rebound!
This time, he threw the ball directly to Tang Tian in the bottom corner.
After being yelled at by the head coach for a while, the entire defense of San Diego State University was closed in. When Tang Tian circled from the top of the circle to the bottom corner, he was already in a state of no one.
Catch the ball, aim the frame, take off, shoot.
The action is complete.
"Shh!"
The open three-pointer with no misses hit the net again.
He hit his second goal in the second half and his third three-pointer in the game!
The point difference was stretched to 6 points!
"Beep! Beep!"
At this moment, the referee's warning whistle came from under the basket. It turned out that Wright was pushing Mazhuk uncomfortably after being robbed consecutively.
Ma Zhuke had a good temper and raised his hand without any intention of fighting back. The referee couldn't stand it anymore and gave Wright a warning call.
In San Diego State University's offense, Wright is desperately making small moves under the basket at this time.
But Mazhuk was not angry at all, and let Wright do all kinds of little tricks, looking like he didn't get enough money.
Wright made himself a little angry at the back, and he couldn't control the strength and overturned Mazhuk.
"beep!"
The referee at the basket was already a little bit reluctant, and this time he was not polite, and directly gave Wright an offensive foul.
UConn fans cheered and whistled loudly.
They have long been unhappy with this Wright, and now being called an offensive foul is entirely their own fault!
Wright's style is very similar to Green of the Warriors, but his ability is much worse than Green.
In UConn's offense, Mazhuk stepped inside. This time Leonard didn't dare to get too close to Walker, otherwise Mazhuk might jump up and get another offensive rebound.
Leonard was still guarding Walker, but there was a distraction detail that wouldn't matter under normal circumstances, but he was facing Walker.
Walker dribbled the ball with a low body after seeing it, changed direction and accelerated to squeeze past Leonard, and quickly hit the board sideways.
Leonard was half a beat slow in chasing and defending, missed the block, and watched Walker send the ball into the basket.
Kangda played a wave of 5-0 offensive, widening the point difference to 8 points.
This is what it means to get started.
The head coach of San Diego State University couldn't help but show his hands to the team at this time.
The defensive rebounds were out of control, and the single defense was not done well. He couldn't stand the team's play at all.
San Diego State University's offense, Leonard wanted to stand up and score for the team, but Tang didn't give him a chance to enter the penalty area at all in the second half.
"boom!"
Leonard's forced shot still failed to hit Tang Tian's defense.
Mazhuk jumped high and grabbed a defensive rebound.
Wright already had three fouls at this time, and he didn't dare to make small moves at will.
Kangda directly counterattacked, this time it was Lamb, who caught Walker's pass in the fast break and chased for a three-pointer.
"boom!"
The ball hit the back edge of the basket, but after the second bounce, it still fell into the net bag.
After a wave of 8-0 attacks, the point difference was instantly opened to 11 points!
San Diego State called a timeout.
There was a burst of cheers from UConn fans, and a burst of commotion from San Diego State University fans.
Kangda's current wave has passed, and the situation has been completely brought back by them.
"What happened? What are you doing?" the head coach of San Diego State University kept asking his players with a tactical board.
No one spoke, and no one could say anything.
In fact, this is the true strength of San Diego State University. They are not strong inside, and they don't have much shooting ability outside. The ability to enter the championship depends entirely on Franklin's impact and Leonard's performance.
Now Kangda is doing targeted defense and protecting the defensive rebounds. Just like the performance at the beginning, they only have to be rubbed by Kangda on the floor.
Although the NCAA will have upsets, those people in the organizing committee are not blind. The strength gap between the No. 4 seed and the No. 13 seed is still obvious.
Chapter 70 National top 32! (three more)
You must know that the reason why the upset is well-known is because it is an upset, and it is impressive once it happens. On the contrary, the results of most games are not unexpected, so not many people pay attention.
After the timeout, Wright was replaced by San Diego State University. Obviously the head coach was a little dissatisfied with his performance during this period.
The replacement was a white substitute center named Louis Joseph, who was about 2 meters tall and looked chubby. He looked like a pure meat shield.
Joseph made a solid pick-and-roll for Franklin when he came up. Franklin used the pick-and-roll to break into the basket and make a layup, helping San Diego State University temporarily stabilize the situation.
But looking back, Lamb used Jumak's pick-and-roll to hit Joseph, and a layup with a change of direction also caused Joseph's thugs.
This is really a pure meat shield, and the defensive end is very slow.
Lamba made a free throw, and the point difference came to 12 points.
Franklin turned around and repeated the same trick. This time under the shout of Ollie from the sidelines, UConn did not switch defenses, but gave Franklin a space for a mid-range shot.
Franklin missed the shot and missed a layup against Lamb's breakthrough.
Ma Zhuke took off the defensive rebound above Joseph's head, and he grabbed the rebound to get the feeling!
UConn counterattacked, and Joseph couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the fast break. UConn played five-on-four in the frontcourt. Walker saw Mazhuk who was late in the breakthrough, and threw the ball directly in front of the basket.
According to Tang Tian, Ma Zhuke only grabs rebounds, so basically he doesn't look at the frame on the offensive end, but the only thing is that he loves to jump!
Just like the front defense lost two fouls in a row, that's his nature.
At this moment, Joseph was still in the backcourt, and there was no one in front of him. Seeing the basketball being thrown, he didn't have time to think about it, so he jumped up instinctively.
Grab the ball, then glide with both hands and smash it toward the hoop.
Almost flat frame.
"Oh!"
With a muffled sound, Majuk dunked vigorously with both hands after the alley-oop.
Because the jump was high enough and the distance was far enough, the impact was so powerful that the basket shook.
"Oh! My God! He's flying!" the narrator couldn't help exclaiming.
This ball can directly be selected as the top five NCAA balls of the day!
There was a commotion among the fans of San Diego State University. Obviously, this alley-oop ball had a great blow to their morale.
