Before the game officially started, when the on-site DJ introduced the players, Carmelo Anthony received the highest cheers... He is the biggest player in the NCAA.
Suhi, who came on next, received the most shouts after Anthony. Boston fans still remember his outstanding performance in the last game.
Head coach Jim Boham's starting lineup tonight is: Suhi, McNabala, Anthony, Hakeem, and Craig.
The starting lineup of the Oklahoma State University Cowboys is: Victor Williams, Tony Allen, Melvin Sanders, Ivan McFarland, Richardson.
The whistle sounded.
The Cowboys got a chance to serve and Victor held the ball through half court.
McNabarra stepped forward to defend, which was a strategy developed before the game.
Su Xi followed Tony Allen, but Tony Allen just stayed in the bottom corner of the three-point line to ambush, and his running was not active. The Cowboys as a whole tended to spread out.
"This is a bit like the Sixers' tactics." Larry Bird saw the dynamics of the court at a glance.
Sure enough, Victor started a one-on-one, and he singled out McNabara at the top of the arc. McNabara was 15 centimeters taller than Victor, which was an advantage.
However, Victor is too flexible, his center of gravity is extremely low, he cuts and changes direction quickly, and within a short time he uses an Iverson-style wandering step to shake off the defense, and he makes a sudden jump shot... Whoa!
Worthy of being the trumpet Iverson.
The way he scores is exactly the same as Iverson. Unlike other super scorers, Iverson generally follows the principle of "take possession of the ball three times and take a shot." He uses a large number of swing dribbles to confuse the opponent's defense, and seizes the slightest opportunity to complete a jumper in the mid-range off guard.
Iverson's mid-range is very, very accurate.
This is different from what most Impressionism fans know. Iverson's half-volume basket level is still unsolvable even when his height is restricted. This is his main way to punish his opponents.
Victor's playing style is exactly the same as Iverson's, except that his mid-range is not as stable as Iverson's. But when he plays well, he can be NCAA Iverson.
His first field goal made the Cowboys very happy. Generally speaking, if Victor hits the first ball, his whole game will be smoother.
This way, the Cowboys' other spots can bloom better.
Su Xi brought the ball across half court, but Tony Allen did not come over to counter. But Sanders.
Sanders is 196cm tall and is a small forward for the Cowboys.
His body is very strong and he pays great attention to the training of various physical qualities. This is the reason why he played for the Spurs for a year and then went overseas for a few years to accumulate capital before opening a well-known physical fitness center in the United States. He also became an assistant coach of the Spurs.
At this time, he opened his arms and faced Su Xi. Su Xi did not fight with him. He and Hakeem made a tactic and passed the basketball to Carmelo Anthony.
Anthony was strongly harassed by Tony Allen. Tony Allen entangled Carmelo, using his hands up and down to prevent Anthony from getting into a comfortable rhythm.
His defensive style is very strong, which makes Larry Bird very fond of him.
Under his harassment, Anthony's triple threat movements were somewhat deformed, and his shots were a little hasty... Bang!
Blacksmithing.
The rebound was taken by the Cowboys center and handed to Victor.
Kobe frowned on the sidelines. He thought Anthony's handling was rough. Top attackers must not be disrupted by defenders, but rather prevent defenders from keeping up with their own rhythm.
At this time, when Su Xi passed by Anthony at halftime, he clapped his hands and shouted to Anthony: "You have to make the defender fall into a choice trap. You have this ability, Cameron!"
Few people care about such details.
But Larry Bird saw it.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he was thinking: He didn't expect that this little sheep Su Xi had the potential to be a locker room leader.
Su Xi is still following Tony Allen.
The current matchup situation is completely different from coach Jim Boham's prediction before the game.
Su Xi frowned. He thought the tactics needed to be adjusted.
But Jim still stood on the sidelines, rubbing his chin, showing no intention of changing.
Victor shook off McNabara again, and McNabara was also not good at defending speedy and agile defenders... Whoops!
Victor hit another mid-range shot.
Jim made a gesture on the sidelines and asked Hakeem to pay attention to help defend.
After changing sides and fighting again, Su Xi originally did not intend to implement the established tactics. He decided to directly attack the paint area and break through Sanders' defense... He could not remain passive.
However, McNabala ran out of the tactical position and passed the ball.
McNabara has a mismatch advantage when playing Victor.
However, his three-point shot missed.
His hand feels a little cold now.
Susie looked to the sideline and saw the Cowboys head coach with a big smile on his face. Apparently, his plan worked.
He adopts a style similar to Tian Ji's horse racing.
Didn't play by the rules.
Victor passed McNabara again, and Hakeem quickly assisted in the defense, but at this moment, McFarland was empty. Victor passed the basketball over, and McFarland dribbled the ball straight into the penalty area. He jumped up to smash the basketball into the basket... but Su Xi rushed over from one side, and he directly pressed McFarland's shoulder. Pulled off with the ball.
Beep!
The referee blows the whistle.
Su Xi fouled.
McFarland gets a free throw.
This was a successful make-up defense.
Larry Bird praised Suhi's ability to anticipate the play because Suhi was the farthest player from McFarland in the corner. But while Hakeem was assisting in defense, he quickly rushed to the paint area.
This shows that his prediction was correct, although he missed Tony Allen in the corner.
The Pacers need such a point guard. The current Pacers starting point guard Tinsley used to play street ball, so he cannot be expected to have good defensive qualities.
McFarland missed a free throw.
The rebound was grabbed by Su Xi.
Su Xi directly dribbled the ball and launched a quick attack. When he reached the frontcourt, Sanders immediately stepped forward, but Su Xi did not wait for his teammates to get into position and hit him head on... The strong Sanders was knocked away half of his body.
Just when he was about to step up his defense, Su Xi suddenly completed a change of direction... He made extremely explosive cuts, and his body had an arc that was almost twisted.
Susie couldn't do this kind of action before Jessica Alba's gift...
Suhi easily passed Sanders, drove to the basket, and when Cowboys center Richardson came up on defense, he gave the basketball to Craig.
Craig dunks with both hands!
The Orangemen scored for the first time in the game to stabilize the situation.
The North Shore Garden Arena cheered.
Larry Bird also clapped.
He wasn't dunking for Craig.
But he appreciates Su Xi's decisiveness. As a point guard...if everything is done according to the head coach's tactical ideas, is he still called a point guard?
"Not bad." He said to Terry, the scout next to him: "It's worth a 50th pick."
Terry nodded quickly.
But at this moment, their eyes looking towards the court became surprised.
Because Su Xi once again made an incredible move.
Coach Jim Bonham waved his hands repeatedly on the sidelines.
But Su Xi's actions did not end.
He stalked Victor.
I will not accept military orders abroad!
