One Guard Chapter 46: : Foul crisis

 Even though at the beginning of the game, Yiyang ignited the audience with a dunk, so that when Duke guard Nolan Smith took possession of the ball, the fans' boos completely overwhelmed the entire Lucas Stadium.

   But for the mighty Duke, they have met countless times with much greater difficulties than this. The strong opening of the No. 1 guard can indeed greatly boost the morale of the teammates, but the Blue Devils will use their stronger response to attack their opponents.

   Nolan Smith has just crossed the midfield line, and Duke's players are already functioning like a precision instrument.

   Although Kyle Singler does not run fast, he has an excellent sense of position on the court. This perfect team player is best at running off the ball, and Duke center Brian Zubek will also appear in the right position to do off the ball pick and roll for Singler.

All   Duke's tactics are proceeding step by step. It seems that the scene seems tepid, but in fact the sharp knife has already been out of the sheath!

   Seeing Singler ran out to ask for the ball, all the commentators were exclaiming that Duke actually got the opportunity so easily.

   Nolan Smith started to pass the ball, but when the basketball was passed out, everyone was stupid.

  The basketball didn't fly to Singler who was in the left corner to ask for the ball, but to the right bottom corner! Everyone thought that the end point of this offense would be Singler, but in fact, Jon Scheyer, one of Duke's three carriages, was the real fire point of this offense!

"Exquisite running position! Singler's feint even fooled us who can watch the audience!" Under Reggie Miller's surprised shout, Duke's starting No. 2 position, Sheyer directly pulled up and shot. .

   As a junior player, Sheyer's performance has been steady year by year. He was tepid in the past two years, and this year he has become one of the most indispensable attack points for coach K. The good luck of this white guard in shooting is unmatched by many star players.

   This one-third of the shot from the bottom corner is unbiased, in the middle of the red heart! 3 to 2, after Yiyang's opening dunk, the Blue Devils immediately responded.

"This is Duke. It looks tepid, and the scene is definitely not wonderful. But they can always score and win the game in this slightly dull situation. The Bulldogs must be careful, Du What Ke is best at is to make his opponent comfortable with chronic death!"

Although    suffered a blow, the fans soon became active again. Yiyang waved for a pick-and-roll from outside the three-point line. Everyone knew that this lightning-fast guy was about to break through again!

   "Come on, come on..." Old K looked at Yiyang who was making a breakthrough, instead of worrying, he was a little expectant. This guy who has been coaching the team is older than Yiyang, and there are ways to clean up these little ghosts.

   Matt Howard picks and rolls in place, Yiyang starts directly as usual. However, at the moment he just got up to speed, Yiyang realized that there was a high wall in front of him! Yiyang, who was too late to brake, ran into Brian Zubek. It stands to reason that Zubek's weight should not be affected by this collision. However, this smart white center fell back on his own and looked like Yiyang. Yang's violent impact caused him to fall.

   "Beep toot!" The referee blew his whistle and awarded Yiyang an offensive foul!

   "What!?" Stevens was the first to refuse. He clasped his head with his hands and yelled at the referee.

   "This should be a blocking foul!" Don't look at Stevens's usual gentleness, but when it should be hot, this young marshal will never back down.

   "Go back to your position, coach! Otherwise, don't blame me for being polite!" The referee ignored Stevens's scolding and signaled the game to continue.

   Old K slightly cocked his mouth off the court. Generally speaking, in order to defend Yiyang, the defensive players should keep a certain distance from him. But the old K didn't take the usual path today, letting Zubek, who was following Matt defender, directly post it. He doesn't expect a big man like Zubek to keep up with Yiyang, but he uses some unique ways to make Yiyang deflated.

   Unprepared Yiyang had no time to slow down and hit the defensive player, so he would naturally be called a foul. Of course, none of this is yet. Old K's tactics are generally linked to each other. When you reacted, you were already stuck in it.

   Although he was called an offensive foul, Yiyang's mood was fairly stable. Zubek's unexpected premise just now, as long as Yiyang is on guard, he won't be fooled for the second time.

   This calm Chinese guard defended conscientiously, Nolan Smith did not dare to entangle with Yiyang too much, he quickly played the ball and let Singler handle the attack.

   But this time, Nolan Smith did not stand in place after the ball, but used Zubek's off-the-ball pick and roll to get deep into the basket.

   Yiyang hurriedly bypassed the pick-and-roll and followed up. As expected, as Nolan Smith cut in, Singler also passed the ball over Hayward's head.

   "Nolan Smith got the chance to attack the basket, but to be honest, there is a huge gap in athletic ability between him and Ye. I doubt whether Nolan Smith can make a goal with this goal."

   As soon as Reggie Miller finished speaking, Yiyang speeded up, and he rushed to Nolan Smith next to him.

   Nolan Smith, who was inserted 45° from the left side, had just stepped into the paint zone with his toes, but he took three steps and planned to make a layup!

   It stands to reason that Yiyang is still guarding Nolan Smith's side, and the Bulldogs power forward Willie Wesley is also guarding the basket. Nolan Smith, there is no chance at all.

   But this guard who played under coach K will never be so reckless. The reason why he chose to force a layup is precisely the arrangement of K!

   I saw that Nolan Smith did not fly to the basket after the jump, but tried his best to lean on Yiyang! Yiyang raised his arms reflexively, but his palms lightly patted Nolan Smith's forearms.

   "Beep toot!"

   "What's wrong!?" When the whistle sounded, Stevens sitting in his seat immediately "played".

   "Butler No. 1, Yiyang, defensive foul!" The referee rushed to the technical table and made his own judgment.

   This time, Yiyang was a little angry. He originally wanted to rush to the referee to question, but then he thought about it, as far as basketball rules are concerned, he really fouled. Although this foul, someone else took the initiative to find it.

"Defensive foul! This is not good news for the Bulldogs. The game has just started and he received his second foul! We saw Ronald Norrid taking off his jacket and standing on the field. On the other hand, Coach Stevens had to replace also!"

   Nolan Smith got to the free throw line and made the first goal. In the gap between the dead ball after the free throw, Stevens waved Yiyang off the court, and Yiyang dropped his head and walked down, looking unwilling.

   Stevens knew that once Yiyang was targeted by the old K, it would be quite dangerous. He would rather lose Yiyang for a few minutes, rather than want Yiyang to leave the game directly. After all, compared to the dark horse of Butler. The referee's whistle will also be more biased towards Duke.

"It's okay, it's okay, we'll go back right away! Remember, try to avoid too much physical contact with them! These guys are very cunning!" Stevens patted Yiyang on the shoulder as a sign of comfort. Yang took the towel from the staff and sat down quietly.

   This cold point guard does not seem to have any mood swings, but in fact, his heart is already burning.

After   , the Bulldogs who lost Yiyang played very hard. Duke's tight defense makes it difficult for Hayward and Mark to get opportunities on the perimeter. Norrid is not like Yiyang who has the ability to help his teammates create opportunities.

   So, the Bulldogs chose to let Matt Howard play **** the inside first.

   Matt Howard's efforts are very effective. The first time he beat Zubek, he committed a foul. Unfortunately, Matt made only one of two free throws.

   After two offenses, Matt Howard is still tough. He made consecutive kills at the basket and repeatedly stood on the free throw line. However, in the face of the NCAA "1+1" free throw rule, Matt Howard stood on the free throw line twice in a row and failed to bring even one point to the Bulldogs!

   High-intensity defense blocked the Bulldogs' offense, and Duke's side, Singler finally opened fire from the outside. On the first shot, he hit a three-pointer directly!

   Old K may have realized that Matt Howard, who is very active today, will be a trouble~www.mtlnovel.com~ so he gestured from the sidelines to signal the players to hit the inside.

   A bit too excited. Matt Howard is indeed very active in guarding, but soon, he also received two fouls. The Bulldogs encountered another foul crisis, and Stevens had to replace Matt Howard.

   After losing Yiyang, facing Duke's tight defense Stevens can still rely on Matt Howard to attack the city. But now that after the loss of Matt Howard, the Bulldogs don't even have a spot to play inside. After that, the Bulldogs experienced a three-minute non-scoring time. During this period, Duke has repeatedly succeeded in the continuous offensive of three carriages.

   When Hayward finally broke the scoring drought with a three-pointer after three minutes, the Bulldogs were already ten points behind Duke! There are only nine minutes left before the end of the half-time game!

   "Pause, timeout!" Stevens had to call a timeout, nine minutes, very short, he must make some changes!

   Yiyang had two fouls on his back, even if he played on the field, it was still very dangerous. But in this kind of game, Stevens can only take the risk!

"Also! Ready to play! Be careful not to be reckless on the defensive end! I want you to put more energy on the offensive end, create opportunities for your teammates, and lead the entire team to attack!" Stevens finished, directly Squatting on the ground, made detailed arrangements on the tactical board.

   The powerful coach Duke and the old K coach pushed Butler into a desperate situation in only half of the time.

   Bulldogs No. 1 re-launched with a major mission. Suddenly, the fans of Lucas Stadium saw the hope of reversing the game.

  Because of that Chinese defender, it has never disappointed.
