"Melon, you should step up and score!"
The second half lasted only five minutes, because Kansas took the initiative to call a timeout and returned to the bench. Duane, who was sitting side by side with Anthony, began to mention his good brother Anthony again.
In just 5 minutes of game time, Duan scored 3 points and 3 assists. This is naturally because he has a lot of ball rights.
In addition, Duane is facing off against Hinrich, the top pick of the Kansas Jayhawks, a lottery pick who is destined to be selected by a lottery team.
During the matchup between the two, Duan showed excellent confrontation ability, defensive awareness, and stable open three-pointers, which will undoubtedly greatly improve Duan's draft prospects.
Therefore, Duan's original intention was not to encourage Anthony to consume a lot of ball rights and actively score points for the Syracuse Orange.
Duan's real purpose is to retreat in order to continue to let Anthony pass the ball to him willingly.
After nearly a year of getting along day and night, Du En understood Anthony's character accurately, that is - people respect me as much as I respect others!
Although Anthony is a college student, he actually can't tell the difference between hypocrisy and sugar-coated bombs.
Just like Wade, he can't figure out what his best brother is thinking.
At this time, Anthony didn't know what Du En was really thinking.
"Don't worry, I will lead the team to win this game."
Anthony gave Duan another trademark, sunny and cheerful big boy smile.
The NCAA's timeout is longer than the NBA's. The head coach of the Syracuse Orange, Boeheim, did not call the players who were about to return to the court until the timeout was almost over.
“Stay focused, keep the pace down, and defend well!
You are my pride and the pride of the Syracuse Orange people!
Go ahead, enjoy the game and win the game, I believe in you! "
Most NCAA and NBA head coaches are not very good at on-field skills. They are better at team building, training, player development, pre-game arrangements, and post-game adjustments.
It's just that some people don't know what to do, so they usually use a tactical board to show off.
In fact, the most important thing to do on the spot is to invigorate the players.
Boeheim is relatively self-aware.
Although it was just to give the players some blood, it did not put too much pressure or burden on the players. Instead, they chose to leave the game to the players themselves.
Of course, with only the last 15 minutes left in this NCAA final, the Syracuse Orange have a 16-point lead and are already guaranteed to win.
In order to prevent the boat from capsizing in the gutter, as the head coach, it is still necessary to remind the players to lower the pace of the game and play steadily.
You know, the NCAA's offensive time limit is different from the NBA's 24 seconds, but as long as 35 seconds.
In fact, in the early years, in order to achieve more exquisite teamwork and play the tactics the head coach had in mind, the NCAA's offensive time limit was even as high as 45 seconds.
In order to increase the enjoyment of the NCAA, starting in 1993, the attack time limit was changed to 35 seconds.
To further shorten the attack time limit, we have to wait until 2015 to shorten it to 30 seconds.
Closer to home, after the two teams returned to the field, the Kansas Jayhawks immediately launched a fierce attack on the Syracuse Orange.
However, the Syracuse Orange players, who were full of confidence on the court, also responded calmly and actively engaged in high-intensity physical confrontation with the Kansas Jayhawks.
As Collison failed to succeed at the basket, he did not get to the free throw line at the whistle.
The Syracuse Orangemen, who protect the defensive rebounds, will play more steadily.
For the players of the Syracuse Orange, at least 30 seconds of the 35 seconds of attack time can be used to consume.
Therefore, Anthony was not in a hurry to get the ball. Instead, he took the initiative to run and landed in the right corner.
Anthony is the core of the Syracuse Orange's offense, and the Kansas Jayhawks cannot ignore it.
For this reason, someone had to be sent to the bottom corner to hand an ashtray to Anthony who was smoking in the bottom corner.
And when there are only one-on-one point guards on both sides at the top of the arc, the Syracuse Orange are not worried about their own point guard making a ball-handling error because the Kansas Jayhawks suddenly double-team the ball handler.
Hinrich noticed that the Syracuse Orange began to consciously lower the pace of the game and reduce the number of rounds for both sides.
Also consider that they are 16 points behind the Syracuse Orange!
Hinrich, who was eager to win, had to be influenced by the Syracuse Orange's conspiracy. He found an opportunity to take the initiative and forced the Syracuse Orange to take the initiative.
"Help me fill the spot!"
While Hinrich rushed towards Andrew Kuwei, he reached out and motioned to his teammates inside to help him keep an eye on Duen, who was already wide open.
Facing a double-team, Andrew Cuwe was naturally a little anxious and passed the ball to Duan who was ambushing on the wing without saying a word.
Due to the hasty passing of the ball, Duen was not very stable when receiving the ball. He could not pick up the ball immediately and throw it directly with his hand like before.
And because the NCAA's three-point line is shorter, correspondingly, the distance for inside players to run from the low post to the high post is shorter, and the speed will be correspondingly faster.
By the time Duane adjusted and was about to raise his hand to shoot, Kansas Jayhawks power forward Jeff Graves had already rushed towards Dunn.
Seeing this, Du En faked a moment, then dribbled and adjusted to prepare for the shot.
However, Hinrich pounced on Du En like a hungry tiger pouncing on food.
The replacement was so timely that Du En was shocked.
Fortunately, it was a two-on-one situation inside, and Fox was left short.
Instead of shooting, Duane wisely chose to pass.
After receiving the ball, Foss dribbled again and then took off for a dunk, but Collison knocked the ball away with a big block.
Fortunately, no one got the ball, so the ball returned to the Syracuse Orange.
The problem is that there are only 7 seconds left in the attack time of this round, which seems a bit hasty to NCAA players.
However, the Syracuse Orange have Anthony. As the team leader, Anthony takes the initiative to take over the blame.
After serving the ball, Anthony, who received the ball, began to play hero ball. He faced the double team of two people, forced a mid-range shot, and then hit an iron.
On the Syracuse Orange side, except for the post player who symbolically grabbed an offensive rebound, the other three quickly returned to defense to avoid being hit by the Kansas Jayhawks on a fast break.
Because the point difference was still 16 points and the game time was approaching 14 minutes, Aaron Myers, anxious, tried to shoot a chasing three-pointer.
Unfortunately, the ball almost went in. But if they didn't score, they didn't score. This was equivalent to giving the Syracuse Orange a wave of ball rights for nothing.
Andrew Cuvee once again became a dribbling defender, steadily lowering the tempo of the game.
Hinrich, who wanted to become a firefighting captain, had no choice but to let go of Dun again, but this time he seemed to be in trouble.
Andrew Cuvee has previous experience, so the ball passed to Duan this time is relatively comfortable.
Duan also felt that his shot speed could ignore Graves' interference, so he directly picked up the ball without dribbling, made some adjustments and threw it directly.
What's wrong with shooting an open three-pointer?
The worst case scenario is just to be silent, Anthony did it anyway!
There’s no reason the shot has to go in, right?
I can only say that 63 to 47, the advantage is mine!
In the second half, Duane continued the fiery touch of the first half.
There was only a brush sound, and Du En scored another three-pointer.
Although this is not the decisive three points, it is also the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
Seeing the point difference further widening, almost to 20 points, the players of the Kansas Jayhawks naturally played more and more impatiently.
Not only needing to chase points, but also turning defeat into victory within a limited time, the Kansas Jayhawks' outside players can only place their hope on three-pointers to change their fate against the odds.
The sound of duangduangduang's hammering was as sweet as a symphony in Anthony's ears.
Originally, Anthony was still a few rebounds away from achieving a triple-double, but now there is no need to worry. The rebounds have already taken the lead and assisted in double figures.
With 14 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists, Duan pays more attention to and cares about his data than Anthony.
There were 9 minutes left before the end of the game. Duan, who had not touched the ball for a while, kindly reminded Anthony again.
Anthony didn't refuse. The team's lead was originally created by the two brothers. What happened to enjoying it?
As a result, the Kansas Jayhawks players on the field did not expect that the Syracuse Orange would suddenly change their minds and switch to Anthony holding the ball to attack.
When he subconsciously thought that Anthony was going to attack alone and start a killing spree, Anthony, who was double-teamed, sent another assist to Du En.
In this regard, Duan's scoring data rose to 17 points in this game, successfully surpassing McNamara and Anthony and becoming the Syracuse Orange's scoring leader.
Anthony also scored a triple-double, and both of them have a bright future.
