last super center

Chapter 32 Prejudgment, Fall into Passivity

No one can escape my ten fingers!
Su Mu really wanted to shake his finger behind the cap on Powell, but after thinking about it, the game had just started, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Jordan Adams used the screen to get a half-open opportunity, made a decisive shot, and hit it with one hit!
4: 2!

UCLA bite the score, did not give the University of Kansas a chance to continue to expand.

Changing sides to fight again, changing defenses after the pick-and-roll, and standing in front of Embiid is Sledgehammer Anderson!
After the pick-and-roll switch, Wiggins threw the ball directly to Embiid without thinking about it.

Facing Anderson who is much shorter than himself, it would be an insult to the sport of basketball if he didn't take advantage of the dislocation to reduce dimensionality!
Facing the fact that some center forwards can't stand up to defenders, Su Mu just wanted to curse: "Fucking bastard, get out of here!"

Hopefully Embiid won't be that center.

Su Mu prayed in his heart, but the last thing he wanted to see happened.

Anderson's defensive judgment is excellent, and he has excellent arm length, and he has been observing Embiid's dribbling trajectory.

Faced with a striker with a lower center of gravity than himself, Embiid did not dribble rashly. The confrontation in the professional arena is not as easy as it is shown on TV. Those who have actually watched the live game must understand why the team will Mistakes occur frequently over a period of time.

That kind of confrontational intensity and impromptu play, flesh and blood human beings will make mistakes.

He tentatively took the ball with his back and protected it with the other hand, in order to prevent Anderson from making a sudden attack.

A sledgehammer like an octopus tightly entangled Embiid, preventing him from having any room to attack.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, as long as you expose the basketball to my vision, you will definitely be intercepted by me!" Rarely, the sledgehammer spoke trash to Embiid.

If I can't cure Su Mu, I can't cure you?
Sledgehammer is full of confidence, but Embiid is a little angry.

Why are you looking down on me?
Talk trash to me, and dare not fart honestly in front of Su Mu?
Even if Su Mu is my teammate, I am extremely unconvinced!

The mentality of comparison among players is extremely terrifying. Sometimes players in a team can fight because of a certain game or a certain honor, let alone between opponents, it will be even more terrifying!
"OK, let's see if I cut you or not, and it's over!"

Embiid no longer hesitated, and started a strong back blow!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!!!"

With continuous impact, Embiid crushed all the way with his weight dominant, and he came to the paint area with Anderson on his head.

Anderson didn't lose his position. Even though he was hit hard enough, he still tried to defend hard. The long arm caused great interference to Embiid.

"Be careful, there is a sixth child!"

Just as Su Mu called out the word "old six", Norman Powell appeared behind Embiid at some point!
Damn, I have been testing Anderson for a long time, are you testing you!
Su Mu was very angry. Embiid is an idiot, no wonder he was called a softie in the NBA.

You're only a little better than Downs, Zhuo!

Hit him directly with the ball, and then open the space for a shot or a layup, and you're done. You don't really think he can complete the steal on you, do you?
You don't have any confidence in yourself, you play your basketball!

After completing the steal, Norman Powell stepped on the Hot Wheels and started sprinting with a pack of explosives!
Embiid couldn't react, I played well, why is the ball gone?

For a while, Embiid froze in place, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that Powell went inside, there was only Selden in front of him.

In terms of physical fitness, Powell beat Selden by several blocks.

Standing up against Selden, at the moment when the basketball was about to touch the backboard, Su Mu came from behind and hit a big hat to block Powell's attack again!
"NO! No way!"

This time, Su Mu shook his finger arrogantly and got a warning from the referee.

"What, can a center run so fast?"

Charles Barkley was stunned. At the moment when Su Mu lowered his head and sprinted with all his strength, everyone was looking forward to the exciting scene.

Sure enough, Su Mu lived up to everyone's expectations and completed the chasing cap that shocked everyone.

"Athletic center, honestly, this guy fits the rhythm of the game right now."

Kenny Smith showed great interest in Su Mu, and his tone was full of appreciation.

With the continuous revision of NBA rules, today's league is more inclined to encourage offense.

Among them, the most obvious is the cancellation of Hand-check in early 2000.

Whether the Hand-check rule should exist has been a topic of debate among football critics since the last century.

From 04 to 05, the Pistons and Spurs, two slow-paced teams known for their defense, won championships in 2004 and 2005 respectively, but the ratings of the NBA playoffs and finals fell to extremely low.

This rule is obviously a big taboo, and the ratings have plummeted, which means that the commercial cake is shrinking, and it involves core interests. How can NBA officials sit idly by?

In the 2004-2005 season, the restless nba introduced a new regulation, which stipulates that hand-check is a defensive foul, and the defensive player is not allowed to make any hand and forearm contact with the player outside the penalty area, that is, It is said that you can only rely on sliding steps and positioning to judge the opponent's attack direction.

Since then, outside players have ushered in an era of data blowout and influence explosion.

Not only that, the cylinder rules promulgated in the future, as well as a series of rules such as the shortening of the second attack time, the three-second defense, and the modification of walking violations, all herald the advent of the offensive era.

Some shrewd commentators and head coaches have long been planning the transformation of the team. Taking the Warriors as an example, they are the first super team to completely reverse the era. While achieving glory and glory, the entire league began to imitate the Warriors. To build a better offensive system, what is needed is a speedy insider like Su Mu.

UCLA re-served the ball and missed in the mid-range. Su Mu protected the backcourt rebound and handed it to Wiggins.
Anderson switched defenses again, this time, he will face a different cruel scenario!

From beyond the three-point line, Su Mu resorted to his own tricks:
Iron-blooded back fight!

Do you really think I can't attack from the outside?

Sorry, let you taste my big ass from here!
"Charles, is this scene familiar?" Looking at Su Mu on the court, Kenny smiled and said to his partner beside him.

"Isn't this a normal thing? After all, I am the originator of post-up singles. In our era, who could stop Master Charles' ass?"

In the face of Su Mu's shameless three-point back attack, Anderson was powerless.

Unlike the soft Embiid, Su Mu's body is like a steel bar, and every impact can cause real damage to him.

With the obvious disadvantages in height, weight and strength, Sledgehammer could only watch helplessly as Su Mu pushed him to the inside line step by step.

Fortunately, teammate David Weir assisted in the defense in time, otherwise there would be a scene where Anderson was pushed horizontally all the way and then served as the background board.

What's the best way to break the double-team?
Pass the ball to a teammate?
NO!

Su Mu said that as long as the shot is made before the double-team is fully formed, the so-called double-team tactics will not be formed by the opponent.

Leave you!

With a sudden effort, Su Mu gained space to shoot after bumping away from Anderson, and then wiped his body, facing the basket, and made a ruthless little hook!

"brush!"

Hit it!

6: 2!

Anderson's expression was a little speechless, how the hell should he defend?

"I admit that I have a gamble, but the distance is so close, I still have some confidence."

Even his teammates didn't expect that Su Mu would be able to make such a technical move.

Small hook, not to mention difficult, at least in normal training, Su Mu rarely used it. This is the first time he has completed such an attack in a tense and exciting confrontation.

"Something, but not much!"

Barkley spread his hands, expressing nothing.

"Su's anticipation of the defense is very accurate, and he shoots before the double-team is fully formed. Although it is a bit aggressive, as long as he can score, this is a good choice."

"I don't think this is an aggressive style of play. Which star didn't come out of this situation? Since you have the strongest offensive ability in the team, playing bravely is the best choice!"

Su Mu rubbed the tip of his nose in embarrassment when he heard the commentator flattering him.

Is this considered an aggressive play?
That's not Birdman Anderson, but Sledgehammer Anderson!

With such an obvious difference in stature, if Su Mu doesn't attack, he's still playing basketball!
"You kid can do it, your footwork around the basket is getting better and better."

Embiid stepped forward to pat Su Mu, and patted Su Mu's butt by the way.

Boil!
Fuck you!

Where to touch it!

The ease of the offensive round does not mean the stability of the defensive round. After successive losses, UCLA finally found its own offensive rhythm.

As long as they don't face Su Mu, they can maintain a normal hit level.

Steve Alford immediately opened his mind, and with a big wave of his hand, everyone started to move, making sure to pull Su Mu out of the inside.

Adams ran to catch the ball, and Powell handed over the screen. Kansas needed to bypass the pick-and-roll man in the shortest possible time to stick to the defense. Selden rushed up, failed to regain his focus, and hit Adams' arm all at once.

"Beep beep beep!!!"

The referee whistles, two free throws!
Selden hammered his head angrily, obviously regretting his recklessness.

Adams made two free throws and the score came to 6:4.

Kansas quickly counterattacked, and Wiggins hit an unstable foothold, quickly rushed to the frontcourt, made a layup with a low hand, and made a steady hit.

8: 4!

The rhythm suddenly accelerated, UCLA switched defenses, and standing in front of Anderson was Su Mu who had crushed him to the inside.

What happened in the previous round must be recovered in this round!
Isn't it easy for a striker to play inside?
Gentleman revenge, from morning till night!
As one of the star players in the team and the third-ranked super high school student in the United States in 2012, Sledgehammer naturally has his own arrogance in his heart.

Although the speed of the sledgehammer is not so fast, relying on the defensive prediction beyond ordinary people and its own offensive rhythm, the sledgehammer plays an indispensable role in the UCLA team.

Step by step to grow into the core of UCLA's striker, the energy of the sledgehammer is beyond imagination!

With a simple dribble, the sledgehammer pretended to be looking for a teammate's position, and suddenly changed direction. Anderson wanted to rely on the change of rhythm to shake Su Mu's defensive center of gravity.

Small fight big, is there a more efficient way than this?
"That's it?"

Su Mu stood on the defensive line early. Although he had a high center of gravity and did not have an advantage in terms of speed against strikers, his excellent defensive position and excellent wingspan perfectly delayed Anderson's offensive rhythm. The defensive core of the team's perimeter, Wiggins did his part to assist in the defense!

Don't forget, in addition to his impressive slow-paced offense, connecting teammates is also one of Sledgehammer's strengths!

The super-quality Norman Powell is ready, as long as Anderson throws the ball high, the latter decides to complete the dunk on Embiid's head!
Dare to help me?

Anderson's passing vision is not like that of a defender like Adams. His height of 2 meters allows him to see the position of each teammate very well.

Pass the internal line empty?
The risk is too great, Su Mu's instant explosive power is top-notch, and Anderson's confidence in Powell is not that strong. If you are Wiggins, Anderson will pass the ball without hesitation.

The ball was given to Adams who was standing on the outside and in an open position!
As a friendly scorer in the team, regardless of Adams' future prospects, once he gets an open chance, the probability of scoring is still quite high.

"Hey hey, the fish is hooked."

However, Su Mu's laughter attracted Anderson's attention. There was no problem with the timing of the pass, but the basketball passed out did not fall into the hands of his teammates. Cut off the arm!
"What? He actually predicted me?"

Anderson saw through Su Mu's intentions at a glance. He never expected that Su Mu would make such a choice when there were opportunities both inside and outside the line!

[-]/[-] probability, how did he do it?
Meng?

Very likely, Anderson couldn't believe it, Su Mu's goal at the beginning was Jordan Adams on the outside!

The stadium is like a battlefield, and opportunities are fleeting. Whether it is defense or offense, a second of delay will waste an excellent offensive opportunity.

Anderson thought he had achieved perfection, but whoever thought that his opponent would be even more perverted completely grasped his mind.

Is it
Is this premeditated by Su Mu and Wiggins?
How can it be!

How much tacit cooperation is needed to achieve such a goal in a short period of time.

Anderson was tumbling inside, he didn't want to believe that this was a premeditated steal.

According to the data, they only started playing together this year!
Steal the next fast break!
The cooperation between Su Mu and Wiggins was as exquisite as ever.

Pointing to the east and hitting the west, the Kansas Jayhawks fired three arrows at once. Su Mu hit the ground and handed the ball to Embiid.

That figure flew in the air as usual!
"BOOM!!!"

A series of operations were pleasing to the eye, and in the end, Su Mu completed the finish, finishing the opponent with a powerful dunk!
10: 4!

Life at UCLA is tough!
