When the Bruins attacked, Moiso faced the white Mamba's top defense, turned around and rushed inside. In order to avoid being flanked by Li Ao who came in, he directly pressed forward and forced a shot against Charles's defense, narrowly missing a hit.
Looking back, Trey Paganier slid down the baseline and took away Barnes, Charles controlled the basket, and Granville broke through and scored.
After covering for White Mamba, Li Ao ran toward the free throw line. He received Granville's pass at the free throw line, turned around, and hit Kapono's mid-range shot.
The two teams entered a state of anxiety. In the next few rounds, the two teams played back and forth, and the scores continued to rise.
Judging from the momentum of the game, the Bruins, who have strong attack points inside, seem to have the upper hand.
But Steve LaVine is in a hurry!
Although both Moiso and Watson performed well in their strong attack goals, compared with their opponents, the difference in scoring difficulty was too big.
The Trojans have a solid midfielder in this lineup, and there are opportunities everywhere at this time.
The key is that the pitcher can also pass the ball, and his response awareness is very good!
When it comes to them, they can only rely on hard power.
The three-forward lineup looks very exciting and has strong offensive ability. Kapono restrains, Barnes cuts in to connect, and Moiso attacks and distributes the ball.
But the style of play was also very solid, with little change. The Trojans did not defend well at the beginning, but as the game progressed, Moiso and Watson's offensive efficiency began to decline.
Not only that, when Kapono met Li Ao on the offensive end, he ran extremely aggressively and consumed more energy than usual!
Kapono felt like crying. After two months of not seeing each other, there were even more damning little tricks.
If he hadn't seen in the news that Li Ao was a SP and dated a different girl every day, he would have thought he had encountered a stick.
Seeing that Kapono's steps began to slow down and his breathing became louder and louder, Li Ao began to try to shrink his defense.
As a freshman, Kapono has obvious flaws.
In high school games, he was like a child abuser, playing the entire game was more than enough.
But in college, everyone is an adult, and his physical strength will reach an excellent level.
Once his physical strength declined, his shooting stability also plummeted, and his playing time was limited to 24 minutes. Therefore, although Moiso came off the bench, his scoring performance was not inferior to Kapono's.
Li Ao already understood this when he studied the video and scout reports in the past two days, discovered the signs, and took advantage of them decisively.
Li Ao shrank, and Watson, who broke through, immediately gave the ball to Kapono.
Watching Kapono catch the ball and shoot a three-pointer amidst the cheers of the fans, Li Ao was still a little nervous.
After all, he is a top tall pitcher in college, and there will always be times when he breaks out.
"哐"
The sweet sound of blacksmithing sounded!
The cheers of the fans at the scene suddenly stopped.
Li Ao turned his head and saw Granville grabbing the rebound around the pile and counterattacking, and immediately rushed towards the frontcourt.
Barnes tried to block Li Ao, but was a little slow. He was originally faster than Li Ao, but he was the most tired one in the game. He played for more than ten minutes and couldn't keep up.
He could only watch the desperate expression on Watson's face as he retreated.
The fans at the scene wanted to boo Watson to help Watson defend the two, but this only made Granville and Li Ao more excited.
Granville took the lead in rushing inside and sent out a lob. Li Ao followed up and took off, pressing the upcoming Watson with both hands to press the ball into the frame.
The stewardess succeeded!
With the score 34-36, the Trojans were still two points behind, but the Bruins called a timeout.
Steve LaVine replaced Barnes and Kapono with Billy Knight and Jalen Rush.
NCAA competitions are greatly influenced by the NBA. At this stage, the NBA is in the iron-blooded era. When encountering problems that cannot be solved, they resort to defense.
The NCAA is probably the same, and Steve LaVine chose to do the same.
He had nothing to do, his opponent was obviously stronger than them!
He knows better than anyone that their strength can no longer keep up with the Cardinals and Wildcats. They defeated the Cardinals purely because Kapono restrained the opponent. That doesn't mean anything. The Huskies also bit Golden State. Where is the bear.
A few years ago, they were a top team with the same level of strength as those two teams, and they won the championship in 1995. However, in the past two years, their strength has gradually been separated by those two teams, but they can barely maintain their status as a top team. strength.
With Baron Davis entering college early and many junior and senior players graduating or withdrawing from the school team, they have fallen behind this year.
If they all make it to the Wild Cats, he is very confident that they will definitely be eliminated before the Cardinals and Wildcats.
But in his eyes, there are still three top teams in the pac10 league.
The one who replaced them was the opponent in front of them!
He could see that the Trojans had a "we have to play hard to win" attitude tonight, and they seemed to not know that they were already a team with the same level of strength as the Cardinals and Wildcats. .
This also means that this team may still have the potential to rise!
Steve LaVine's expression turned bitter.
Things are changing, and he understands this.
But why was he so unlucky that after taking this job, the Bruins were in decline?
What happened to rise was the Trojans, whom the Bruins had always looked down upon.
On the other side, Henry Bibby replaced the combination of Nate Hale, Trey Paganier, Li Ao, Shelby Jordan, and Brusenthal.
The timeout was about to end. Li Ao and his teammates walked onto the court. The reaction of the fans was... quite strange.
Normally, when the home team calls a timeout, the fans at the scene should encourage the home team players with cheers and cheers.
But what rang out at Pauley Arena was boos and abuse for the visiting Trojans.
Shelby Jordan was so excited that he jumped into the court and yelled wildly: "Barking, barking, no one will come to save this bear even if it breaks his throat!"
Li Ao: (￣(ｴ)￣)
Why does this guy sound like he's going to do something to a bear?
Although the fans at the scene couldn't hear what Shelby Jordan yelled, they looked so arrogant and arrogant. Just as they were about to slow down after booing, they immediately cursed at the top of their lungs.
Steve LaVine was scared and helpless, and the fans at the scene were even more scared!
Just now, the five strongest players on their team didn't take advantage of each other, and their rotation lineup is notoriously poor. In the past two years, they have failed once or twice due to poor substitute strength.
It just so happens that the opposing Trojans have one of the best rotations in the entire division.
How could they not panic?
Anyone, they don’t want to see the Trojans walk all over them!
But all this was in vain.
After returning from the timeout, Trey Pagnier and Brusenthal were the main attackers in singles. Without Barnes, no one on the Cardinals could guard these two alone. They chose to increase their zone defense, and the opportunity appeared for Li Ao.
The confrontation became more fierce because Kapono and White Mamba were gone. Li Ao made 2 of 5 mid-range shots, plus 2 of 4 free throws, scoring 6 points, which was not very efficient.
Mainly relying on peers!
The Bruins only scored two points in the past four minutes!
Li Ao defended Moiso alone, and Shelby Jordan defended in tandem. The defensive dominance of both forwards was fully demonstrated!
After halftime, the Trojans successfully overtook the Bruins 40-38!
True-strength suppression!
…
During the halftime break, Steve LaVine was thinking a lot and couldn't think of a good way to adjust, so he could only make regular adjustments.
He expected the Trojans to get complacent about the come-from-behind score and then they would have a chance.
However, when the second half started, the Trojans were even more focused than in the first half and began to widen the gap.
Anyone can be careless and underestimate their opponent. Before playing against the Wildcats, they almost underestimated their opponent.
But facing the Bruins, the Trojans players cannot underestimate the opponent. This is a completely different opponent.
It's not about the strength of the Bruins, but as a member of the Trojans, the opponent they are most eager to defeat is the Bruins in the same city.
This is what this team has wanted most for decades. After Li Ao integrated into the team, he also had the same desire.
But the last time they swept the Bruins in a season was in 1959. It has been 40 years, and they were swept for more than 30 years.
Now that the opportunity has come, they will never let their guard down!
They have now discovered that when both sides are playing normally, they are already stronger than the Bruins.
But because of this, they worked harder and wanted to win immediately!
There were no surprises. Halfway through the second half, the Trojans had extended their lead to double digits!
In the current Bruins team, Kapono is the only one with explosive ability.
If there was only Li Ao as his opponent, or only Shelby Jordan, Kapono would still struggle, because the opponent would have to rest.
But the two took turns guarding him, and by the second half of the game, he was already broken.
At 8:44 pm, the final whistle sounded.
The score was fixed at 88-75.
Relying on White Mamba's 16 points, Li Ao's 13 points and 5 assists, Granville's 12 points and 7 assists, Trey Paganier's 15 points... the Trojans steadily defeated the Bruins with a 13-point advantage!
After the final buzzer sounded, Bruins players gathered together and cheered in celebration.
The fans at the scene were very reluctant and booed and cursed constantly.
This affected the celebration mood of the Trojans players, and Granville complained that these people really couldn't afford to lose.
When they were swept last season, the home fans were quiet.
At this time, Li Ao and Shelby Jordan walked to the center circle. They looked at each other and were surprised.
'The bastard wants to steal the show! '
Both of them quickened their pace and came to the center circle. At the same time, they raised their hands, put them to their ears, and listened!
The fans at the scene had almost controlled their emotions, but they broke out again at this moment!
These two people are so cool!
The Trojans players were so envious that they quickly followed, came to the center circle, and collectively made a listening gesture.
The fans at the scene completely lost their minds. People in the seats began to pour into the sidelines, and the security personnel quickly stopped them.
Henry Bibby reacted quickly and called on the assistant coaches and staff to pull the players back.
He cursed and denounced the behavior of Li Ao and Shelby Jordan, which frightened the players and quickly broke away from their excitement. When they saw that there was a riot at the scene, they quickly fled into the player tunnel, and several soda bottles almost hit them.
But don't look at Henry Bibby's harsh scolding. He was just thinking about the safety of the players and worried that the players would get involved in physical conflicts with the fans.
In fact, he was very happy... "Vaco! Someone hit my balls with a bottle!"
…
It caused a riot at the scene, and Li Ao regretted it very much.
If I had known earlier, I would have thought of a more cool move!
'Little Ranbir' actually thought of getting together with him, and his handsomeness index was seriously lowered!
Back in the locker room, without even having time to take a shower, let alone apply ice or something, Kevin Henderson hurried in and told them to run away.
The group of people quickly came to the parking lot. After getting in the car, Li Ao still felt uncomfortable and sticky.
But when the car drove out of the parking lot, he saw that the police had set up guardrails to block the excited fans. These fans seemed to be Bruins fans. There seemed to be large-scale conflicts in the small square. He suddenly felt sticky. The answers are pretty good too.
Full of manly sweat!
After leaving a distance, Li Ao watched the police cars "wow-wow-wow-wow" as they drove to the Poly Arena. He was glad that the hospital assistant's aunt did not come to watch the game because she was afraid of trouble.
As a college assistant, I have already come here. It is estimated that it is impossible to go to the arena. I will definitely have to bring students from their department to support outside. If not, the team leader can be left to the person who made this suggestion. Backbone of the student union.
If something like this happens now, it is one thing whether the hospital assistant aunt will take responsibility if she is at the scene. What if there is a collision? It will be even worse if you meet Liu Mang.
As for his good brother Liam who was cheering on the sidelines today, Li Ao believed in his good friend's skills and could run faster than a dog.
Even if he was beaten, there was nothing he could do. Who asked him to cheer for the visiting team from the sidelines?
He turned on the system to read the post-match prompts.
13 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, and got 175 achievement points.
'Double kill', another 500 achievement points were obtained.
'Dark Horse Rush' has also accumulated 6,000 achievement points.
But what he is happiest about is getting new skills!
"Heavy Pressure Level 1: When the host is in single defense, if the host has an advantage in height and weight, speed +2, burst speed +2, and the sense of pressure will increase. Note: The effect of increasing the sense of defensive pressure depends on the opponent's psychological quality and the host's defensive deterrence. Certainly."
Sure enough, it was a defensive skill. Li Ao looked at the skill list and found that there were skills for five types including offense, defense, passing, shooting, and status. The pit was filled!
Although each skill only has one...
The skill he likes this time is similar to the 'catch and shoot expert', which can be used directly, unlike 'pause', which requires technical skills to be used.
As for the increased sense of pressure, he should have already established himself as a 2D support forward by now, and it will have some effect.
Big harvest tonight! So beautiful, so beautiful...
The bus driver first drove back to the school, where some of the Trojans lived, and then dropped off others who lived off campus.
Li Ao did not continue taking the bus, helped the bus driver shorten his overtime work, and took Xavier Johnson back to his apartment for a lift.
When he came upstairs, he had just arrived at the door of his small suite and was about to open the door when a "clang" sound came from the house of the hospital assistant's aunt. He turned around and saw a beautiful woman swooping over. He quickly braced himself. ...being hugged tightly and suffocated...
"Leo, you're awesome! It's been 40 years! We finally swept the Bruins!"
Vivian cheered crazily and said how happy she was to win tonight. Li Ao struggled hard and finally got Vivian down and escaped death.
This hospital assistant aunt is more vicious than imagined!
