Chapter 59 The role of the small forward
During the timeout, McKillop called the Wildcats players together.
"Both of us are familiar with each other's style of play. If we want to break through the team's defense, we must use resolute shots." McKillop said.
Then, he turned to Su Yi, "Su, do you still remember the role I asked you to play as a small forward?"
Su Yi: "Put the basketball into the opposite basket."
McKillop nodded and said, "Just do it and show your confidence, they can't stop us!"
The whistle sounded to start the game.
"come on."
Several pairs of big hands overlapped together.
Players from both sides walked into the field, and small forward Kyle Singler continued to defend Su Yi alone.
At the beginning of the game, the two sides continued to test, and the defensive strength did not drop at all.
The score alternately rises.
He has a relatively long wingspan and is more experienced in defense, so he won't take fake moves easily. In the first quarter, Su Yi has figured out his characteristics.
This man is a defensive leader. If he wants to score in front of him and play with momentum, he can only be tough.
Su Yi settled in the left corner and leaned against him fiercely with his back, and Curry passed the ball over.
Kyle Singler entangled Su Yi and used his long arms to interfere with Su Yi holding the ball.
Su Yi didn't choose to break through, but slammed him twice, then turned over and leaned back, and shot at mid-range.
The basketball passed through Kyle Singler's fingertips and made a magnificent hit.
Su Yi's iron-blooded mid-range shot continued to lead the Wildcats.
The ball was transferred to the Blue Devils, and after Gerald Henderson used the screen to get rid of Curry, he ran off the ball to receive the basketball and hit a key three-pointer.
Wildcats 23:22 Blue Devils.
Everyone in the Blue Devils has a basket, and it is precisely because of the same excellent shooting that they always bite the score.
Su Yi held the ball from the outside, faced small forward Kyle Singler, and signaled the inside players to pull away.
After making several fake moves in a row, he used the change of direction to throw away Kyle Singler and went to the basket.
Facing Su Yi who had started to speed up, center Brian Zobeck had no choice but to force a foul and send Su Yi to the free throw line.
Su Yi's hand style was hot, and he made two free throws, widening the point difference to three points again.
The Blue Devils are attacking, and their players are constantly using screens, finding every opportunity to get open and take shots.
On the Wildcats side, Curry was on the outside to contain the opponent's defensive firepower.
Su Yi was the main point of attack, looking for all opportunities for singles.
Shooting guard Gerald Henderson and small forward Kyle Singler, together in the high post, shut down Su Yi.
Su Yi observed the positions of the two of them and made a few cross steps.
After all, I have a ball-handling ability of more than 80. Facing such a flexible big man, the two people on the opposite side are also caught off guard.
Slightly opening their center of gravity, Su Yi started in an instant, using his speed advantage to tear the two people's defenses apart.
Just as the two were about to return to defense, Su Yi suddenly passed the basketball to Curry who was beyond the three-point line.
Curry raised the knife and landed a three-pointer.
Director Zhang: "Reasonable! This ball is played reasonably! You know it as soon as you make a shot!"
The two played the first "Suku Connection" from the beginning of the game to the second quarter. I have to admit that Coach K, an old fox, has thoroughly understood the tactics of the Wildcats.
Duke University is also a famous basketball school with a tradition of defense. If they want to break through their layers of blockades, they can only rely on Curry's organizational skills and subtle awareness, as well as Su Yi's personal abilities.
However, after switching offenses, big center Brian Zobeck suddenly rose to the high post.
Catch the basketball at the free throw line and go for a mid-range shot.
Ben Arison was caught off guard and rushed to block the shot.
However, this 2-meter big man played "Zhang Fei eats bean sprouts" and passed the ball to the baseline with a flick of his wrist.
Only then did Ben Arison realize that he had been tricked into turning the tiger away from the mountain.
Shooting guard Gerald Henderson, who is 1.95 in height, caught the basketball on the baseline and won the opportunity to show himself in front of scouts.
Without being polite at all, he shook off Su Yi half a step, rounded his arms, and jumped up to dunk.
However, just when he was about to dunk.
The familiar yellow phantom flashed past.
Subsequently
It's a big hat that is so bloody that no relatives will recognize it!
Su Yi slapped the basketball impartially, knocking the little guard to the ground.
Most importantly, after the shot was blocked, Su Yi actually held the basketball with one hand!
In other words, for the basketball just now, it was Su Yi who pressed the ball down in the air.
The muscles in the old Coach K's eyes twitched unconsciously: "I thought my team's defense was good enough. But this guy Su Yi is not defending at all. This is clearly a robbery."
He looked at Gerald Henderson lying on the ground in a mess, and he spread his hands helplessly towards him.
Director Zhang: "Good hat!"
Yang Yi: "Hey~ Su Yi's efficiency is really high today, and his defensive attitude is the most active."
Facing the tide of cheers, Su Yi could only express his composure——
As the patron saint of the penalty area, he just did what he should do.
And this arrogant guy dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head, and he got what he deserved.
Gerald Henderson looked at Su Yi's domineering eyes, and didn't dare to look at him at all. He could only secretly express his helplessness: "I just want to show off in front of the scouts, is it easy for me?"
After switching the offense, Curry continued to shoot Gerald Henderson from outside the three-point line.
As a result, the basketball missed a little bit and bounced high.
Big center Brian Zobeck jumped up to put the basketball in his arms, but suddenly felt a strong impact and pushed him aside.
Su Yi rushed over like a war horse, and Brian Zobek reflexively wanted to pull him.
As a result, with strong inertia, Su Yi slammed the basketball into the basket, and then did two pull-ups while hanging from the basket.
Two free throws are valid, and one penalty is added.
Director Zhang was completely taken aback: "I didn't expect Xiao Su to have such a positive awareness of rushing to grab rebounds. There is a lack of such players in China."
Yang Yi also agreed again and again: "This reminds me of Rodman, the big worm, and people can't get enough of his fighting. It's really exciting, but players must protect themselves at this time!"
After Su Yijia made a free throw, Duke University requested a timeout.
The Wildcats have already achieved a 7-point advantage.
"Plan B." Old Coach K said, and then drew on the tactical board.
"We must also maintain a good hit rate and the current rhythm. As long as we can play normally, I believe we will be able to stand on the stage of the final." Coach McKillop also encouraged everyone.
It was a short timeout, the players were not in their seats, and after standing for a while, the game was about to start.
Sure enough, the Blue Devils changed their tactics, and the new small forward Lance Thomas was 2 meters tall.
He didn't take on the offensive task, but was responsible for pestering Su Yi like a dog's skin plaster.
No matter whether Su Yi is attacking or defending, this person's goal is very specific, which is to consume him.
In the offensive round, Su Yi fell to the bottom line and fought him hand-to-hand. It was obvious that his own strength and technical movements had considerable advantages.
A wonderful Asian dance move threw him into the restricted area.
Just ready to dunk..
Lance Thomas hugged Su Yi decisively, an obvious foul.
Su Yi stared at this little brother with cold eyes
In the end, the little boy actually raised his hand to signal to the referee that he had committed a foul, then looked at Su Yi with a smile, and told Su Yi clearly that he was here to consume him.
As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling person with your hand. If a man of steel is tough with Su Yi, Su Yi will definitely teach him to be a man.
In the end, he gave Su Yi a wretched smile, and he couldn't fix it directly.
It was clear that it was the old coach K's arrangement. As long as he got the ball in a dangerous place, it would be a decisive tactic to cut Su.
Su Yi was entangled in the battle with the wheels on the opposite side, his physical fitness began to decline a little, and he made one of two free throws.
The audience felt a little unbelievable, because in their view, sending Su Yi to the free throw line was basically equivalent to sending points.
The tactics of old coach K, the old fox, really worked.
Su Yi double-teamed the ball as soon as he got the ball, and fouled decisively when he layup.
Coupled with the decline in his touch, Su Yi only made one of four mid-range and long-range shots.
However, this is also the main offensive method of the Wildcats, but this style of play is too exhausting for Su Yi.
McKillop decided to replace Su Yi with Nelms.
Curry took over the banner of the offensive end, but there were shortcomings on the defensive end.
After all, the opponents are all shooting lineups. After finding the touch, it is not too restrictive.
Su Yi noticed that the timer showed that there were still 10 minutes left before the game was over, the Wildcats 59:59 the Blue Devils.
The two sides returned to the same starting line.
