From sparring to superstar

Chapter 75 73. I am the best co-author?
Li Ao patted his chest and ran to the backcourt, high-fiving Granville and the White Mamba.

It's dangerous!

As long as he catches the ball and jumps a little slower, the shooting space will be covered, and he can only lean back. He has flamboyant movements with that thing, but he can't shoot accurately.

The opponent's defensive rotation is simply terrible, amazingly good 3 defense 3, and the 4th defensive player moves as timely as possible to supplement the defense.

However, his small-scale cooperation with Granville and White Mamba can still create scoring opportunities!

Offensive and defensive transitions, Mike Kelly, the core of the ball, advanced quickly.

He is under a lot of pressure now, and Li Ao is mentioned as the starting lineup on the opposite side. Their defense against the Trojans' starting lineup has been prepared in vain.

However, this did not affect his organization of offense.

The way he organizes the offense -- standing in the wide top arc, he lucks and lucks and lucks.

The other 4 players began to frantically screen off the ball.

At the basket, on the wings, at the free throw line...

Li Ao and his teammates fought hard to chase and switch defenses for more than ten seconds. They did a very good job and did not give the opposing pitchers and cutting players a chance.

But he stopped when he saw Andy Kowski go to the left long two-point area to pick and roll for Mark Shawn.

He suddenly discovered that the running position on the opposite side was like a headless chicken, seemingly aimless, just like the pick-and-roll in front of him, which had no reason at all.

Andy Koski opened the pick-and-roll and ran away with the white mamba who switched defenses, which was beyond Li Ao's expectations.

The ball was passed to Mark Sean almost immediately!

Opposite point guard Mike Kelly's vision is really good!The pass is also fast and accurate!
Can this position be passed to a center forward?

Li Ao didn't push up, but took a step back. After calming down, he clearly remembered that the opposite center made only 25% of his shots from beyond the free throw line.

The 206 cm center forward is the only player on the opposite side who can be called a star. He has good ball handling skills and has a beautiful hand to break through the frame with the ball. His shooting percentage at the basket is as high as 67%!

Li Ao is ready to prevent the opponent from breaking through, and he has already thought about how to force the opponent to stop... "哐"...

Li Ao turned around and caught the ball that bounced off the cross-section of the basket's neck: (O_o)??
Looking at the ball in my hand, it's a bit unreal...dangerous!
Li Ao pouted his butt sideways to block Mark Shaw, who rushed up after the shot, and protected the ball.

Trepagnier ran over to meet him, hand in hand and walked in rhythm, protecting the advance.

Roy Boone made a full-court press and defense against Trey Pagnier. Li Ao didn't go to help cover and ran directly to the frontcourt.

Trey Pagnier's running and jumping ability is a bit mediocre, but he is strong and has solid basic skills.

He is very puzzled now, what is the meaning of the opposite pick and roll?
Also, with Mark Schaufer in that position, Mike Kelly actually dealt the cards!
The most outrageous thing is that Mark Shaw actually voted for that position!

Suddenly, Li Ao had a flash of inspiration.

That's it!

No wonder, he had noticed an unexplainable but unimportant thing on Mark Schauer's data before, so he didn't care.

Nearly 5% of the close-range shots, 67% of the shots at the basket, and the points are mainly concentrated within the distance of the free throw line, but the total shooting percentage of the opposing center is only 47%!

Running to the frontcourt, Li Ao first put aside what he discovered.

Take advantage of the score first!
Granville + Li Ao + White Mamba's small-scale offensive cooperation, with Trepagnier on the left side responding or cutting in, and Charles pestling at close range. Compared with the original starting lineup, the offensive firepower is now more than one gear stronger!
With exactly the same cooperation, when Li Ao came to the bottom line on the right, the distance was closer to the three-second zone, and Mark Shaw expanded to defend in advance.

Roy Boone closed to the basket, surrounded Charles with a small body of 191 cm.

Li Ao passed it on!

Roy Boone struggles to interfere with Charles' catcher's hand...

The ball was not given to Charles, but passed to the middle!

Dunn reacted quickly and actively supplemented the defense, but before he had time, he passed Trepagnier.

Trey Pagnier caught the ball and smashed the ball into the basket with two steps and one-handed dunks!

The jump is not high, but the momentum is heavy, and the viewing is quite good, detonating the cheers of the fans at the scene.

Henry Bibby looked calm, but his heart was already dancing a disco.

Facing the defense and making a tough shot to score a long two-pointer, and meeting the advance defense bottom line to complete the support and help his teammates score, the kid's offensive continuity, isn't it coming!

The opponent's defensive ability is very strong, but the kid's ball intelligence is one step ahead of the opponent!
When the Badgers of the academy attacked, Li Ao saw that the opponent was still going crazy and meaningless... no, it was a part of the opponent's system, all kinds of illogical and random pick-and-rolls.

Seeing his teammates running after him, Li Ao didn't stop him.

At this time, rashly commanding teammates may be found by the opponent to score.

If you stop the other party, you will have time to tell the middle-aged flirtatious man, and he doesn't need to bother with that.

However, his personal defense began to adjust, just keep it between the object he is defending, the object that needs to be switched, and the basket.

When Li Ao switched to Roy Boone, he still didn't expand out and stayed at the free throw line.

Roy Boone quickly withdraws from the three-point line, Mike Kelly deals the cards accurately, Roy Boone catches the ball and makes a three-point shot... "哐"...

Li Ao received the rebound, the white mamba held the rushing Du En, and Li Ao received the defensive rebound and passed it to Granville.

As he expected!
After the opponent's headless running + confrontation + fast movement, he can still shoot accurately, and he admits the loss.

However, if the opponent runs like this, it is always possible to get a chance to cut into the frame. Instead of defending against such a situation, it is better to actively give the opponent a loophole.

This wave of bets is right!

Originally, the Trojans relied on adjusting the starting lineup and playing in a small area to cooperate with each other, and took the initiative on the offensive end.

Li Ao's small self-adjustment expanded the advantage of the Trojans in the opening stage!
After the Trojans started 4-0, they failed to keep scoring consecutive goals. The College Badgers' zone defense was really bad.

Compared with the Duke team, the intensity is higher, and the players' personal defensive ability is stronger. Compared with the Cardinal team, they are purer and only have defense.

If the Cardinals are the top defensive team, then the College Badgers, which are currently at their peak, have already touched the ceiling of college defense.

But Li Ao + White Mamba's two-pitcher striker, coupled with Granville's breakthrough and Li Ao's support, forcibly tore a hole in the defense of the Academy Badgers!
The opening team defense was ready to miss, and the individual defense of the College Badgers was also tortured.

Du En, who was defending Li Ao, went crazy!
He is 24 years old, a junior graduate, 196 centimeters tall, 96 kilograms in weight, mature in body and good defensive awareness. In the past two years, few of his front and back line shooters have shot well. .

Interfering with the opponent's acceleration with hand-to-hand combat and influencing the opponent's running position with confrontation are his forte, and many pitchers are even frightened by him.

But tonight, facing Li Ao, a thin-looking small forward, he has no advantage in the confrontation!It is difficult to have a substantial impact on the opponent's movement!
And this looks like a guy with a cool and handsome style of play, with a lot of tricks!
As long as they stick together, he will be squeezed.

Not to mention that he failed to affect the other party's mentality this time, on the contrary, his own mentality was affected.

Also, this guy doesn't dribble!His oppressive post defense is useless!

Not only did he feel weak in defense, but also the rest of the Academy Badgers. The pressing defense failed, the number of passes from the opponent was low, and there were fewer steals and counterattacks that they were good at.

The team's defense was insufficient, and there was another point that could not be restricted at all. The College Badgers were working hard to defend, but as the game progressed, the Trojans' scoring efficiency stabilized!
At 5 minutes and 38 seconds into the first quarter, the White Mamba finally got a chance. He received the ball from the right corner and hit a three-pointer. The head coach of the College Badgers, Dick Bennett, called a timeout!

In 5 and a half minutes, he only scored 4 points, and he didn't care about this.

This is very common for them.

What he wants in the opening stage is not to score, but to defend the opponent.

However, after the White Mamba made this three-pointer, the opposing Trojans had scored 12 points!

He regrets it so much now, he would have called a timeout when he knew it was 4 to 9.

But he thought about holding back, the players actually did a good job of defending and responding independently, but the genius rookie on the opposite side did a good job of supporting him. Just now he chose to let go of the white mamba and shrink the defense. White Mamba for so long.

As a result, the white mamba made the shot!

It is not too late to remedy the situation.

Dick Bennett controlled his emotions. After the players returned to the bench, he encouraged the players loudly, and then strengthened the small-scale defensive cooperation.

另一边，5分半钟时间拿到2分3板3助攻1盖帽的李敖没有去享受球迷们的欢呼声，暂停的哨声一响就立刻快步走向亨利-毕比。

Without waiting for the other party to ask, he said directly: "Coach, I found a problem...so so, so so..."

Concise and to the point, Henry Bibby understood it right away.

But suddenly he was asked to analyze one, three, five, seven, nine... He said, "Go on."

go on?say what?
Convex

Could it be that this middle-aged coquettish man didn't understand?
There is no other way, Li Ao can only analyze it by himself, he said to himself while thinking: "Their offense seems to be chaotic, but in fact they are also very chaotic..."

⊙_⊙

Henry Bibby: What is this kid talking about?
Before Henry Bibby could remain silent, Li Ao's next analysis attracted all his attention.

"But their disorderly pick-and-rolls are actually for defense. They run chaotically, and we can't understand them, so we will subconsciously defend the opponent's pick-and-rolls. This is a consumption of us.

At the same time, they gave us a very violent confrontation during the pick-and-roll, and even deliberately found confrontation when running, which double consumed our physical strength and touch.

And they can still score in this way, but the efficiency is not high, but what they are good at is to consume the opponent's offense to the same level as them, and then defeat the opponent with rich experience.

We ignored their offense, whether it was scouting reports, our preparations, or myself, never paid attention to their offense.

I found that they are a gambling team with a large proportion of medium and long-range shots, but the shooting percentage is not high, and the proportion of inside scoring is so large.

In the last month, their mid-range shots should be in good condition. Although they are not accurate enough, they can score some goals and guarantee points. In the case of a stable defensive performance, it is very important for their mid-range shots to score one occasionally. If you win, you win. At this point, this point we have to pay attention to..."

Unknowingly, the timeout called by the College Badgers has ended, and Henry Bibby gestured to the referee for a timeout.

The referee froze for a moment, then blew the whistle again and made a pause gesture towards the technical platform.

With a lead of 8 points and a big advantage, the referee called a timeout immediately after the opponent called a timeout. This is the first time the referee has encountered such a situation.

The opposite Dick Bennett has been coaching for more than ten years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a situation.

Don't say it, it feels like he is quite awkward, so he can only call the players together to re-emphasize defense.

For the Trojans, Henry Bibby called a timeout and asked, "How do you think we should defend?"

()
"Coach, won't you blush?"

Li Ao had already thought of a solution during the analysis, and after being speechless for two seconds, he responded: "They pick and roll for the sake of pick and roll, and for the sake of confrontation. Come out, give the basket to Kostas, and he tries not to leave the paint."

I was despised, but at this time, Henry Bibby endured it!

He said: "Costas will be under a lot of pressure in this way. You can block the flank cut, but it is difficult for Brian and Jeff to do well. The opponent's passing and cutting cooperation does not rely on skills, but the physical fitness is too good."

"Then put Sam on, he's good at this, let Jeff rest, don't worry about defending badly, even the Fresno Bulldogs can guard the opponent and only get 7 points in 6 minutes, we just defended the pick and roll. Working so hard didn't make the defense better. The opponent's defense at the beginning was so bad that it couldn't be worse.

After the opponent has the best physical strength and the strongest defensive effect, then let Jeff play and use our top hounds to deal with their huskies. "

After holding back for a few seconds, Henry Bibby nodded and replied, "That's a good answer."

Li Ao: convex = "= convex

shameless!

Ignoring Li Ao's disgusted eyes, Henry Bibby gave Sam Hayes who was watching from the sidelines a look.

Sam Hayes said: "After hearing the problems Leo discovered just now, I am ready to adjust the plan. According to his suggestion, my new adjustment plan is also ready."

Henry Bibby: [○`Д○]
I'm the best co-author, right?
The slander is the slander, he is still very confident in himself.

The adjustment of the opening offense this time, didn't even the Academy Badgers get beaten.

Everyone has something they are good at, otherwise why does he want this defensive assistant?
Henry Bibby made personnel adjustments.

He specifically explained that the kid was going to replace Sam Clancy, and explained why Tre Pagnier was rested.

Trepagnier was satisfied with this arrangement. He was not a iron man, and he didn't have the idea of ​​"the opponent has the strongest defense and I will beat him head-on".

Sam Clancy was surprised and delighted!
