So I am the god of basketball?

Chapter 40 This alma mater can’t support you at all

"fxxk!"

A curse came from a wealthy villa area in Chicago.

The future "God of Basketball" didn't have a game today. After training, he hurried home. As soon as he turned on the TV, he saw Meng Lang steal his junior brother. ——The "little brother" is like this. He only knows how to "steal" but cannot prevent "theft".

Are all North Carolina's current insiders like this?

If this was a rookie selected by the Bulls, Jordan would break his heart within a week of joining the team. Damn his NBA career dream.

Gordon tried to find Kevin Thompson to catch the ball.

Meng Lang, who noticed this, kept moving forward to prevent him from catching the ball.

Thompson is 2 meters tall and weighs 11kg. If he was just stuck in position, he would have no pressure at all against Meng Lang. But Meng Lang didn't compete with him for strength or tonnage at all. Instead, he used his mobility and flexibility to play "sparrow war", focusing on harassment.

The slowness of his movements was immediately revealed.

Otherwise, with such a height and the brilliance of North Carolina, how could he only be ranked in the middle of the second round in the draft predictions of major media.

He is too slow!

Compared with Yao, who was reimbursed twice for the season after gaining weight, he is also slower than Sabonis, who is lame on one leg.

Gordon could only give the ball to Montrose again.

The shadow of Meng Lang's head-on steal just now was still there. This time, he didn't turn around immediately. Instead, he took the ball and glanced at the basket.

This stagnant movement made Jordan break through the defense: "You just do it!"

When he got the ball, Kevin Thompson blocked Meng Lang so hard that he couldn't get around to interfere.

Instead, his pause allowed Meng Lang to bypass Kevin Thompson and double-team Feng again.

The ball returned to Gordon's hands, and in the blink of an eye, there were less than 35 seconds left in the 7-second attack time. George Lynch stood up at this time, running without the ball on the wing, and took a two-point step forward from the high post on the right. The hit helped the team successfully equalize the score.

West nodded slightly, this ball is very crucial, and it can be seen that Lynch has no stage fright.

Old K shouted dissatisfied at Antonio Long: "What are you looking at?"

In this round, the inside defense was so perfect. The only thing missing was the tremor on the outside, otherwise North Carolina would have been able to prevent a 35-second violation.

Such defensive quality at the start can definitely give you a psychological advantage.

A good opportunity was ruined in Antonio's hands. No wonder Old K scolded him directly.

This guy can't be guarded on the inside, and he can't guard on the outside either!

I really can’t imagine what this team will do without Meng Lang this year!
  Fortunately, Meng Lang was given a chance this summer!
  Old K has been thankful for his choice in summer countless times, and this is another time...

So far, Meng Lang is very satisfied with the defensive effect after switching to the fourth position.

but……

His eyes gradually filled with expectation.

Old K knows very well that he can expect much more than just the defensive end.

Hurley reached the frontcourt with the ball, and while he was communicating with Hill, he suddenly used his arms and threw the ball toward the right corner.

There, Meng Lang got ready to receive the ball. With the ball in his hand, he made a streamlined movement without any pause. He raised his hand and shot. Facing Kevin Thompson's clumsy outward attack, the ball drew a perfect arc and was steady. Falling steadily into the basket. ——Kevin Thompson, who was already slow in his movements, looked even slower and full of dementia after leaving the basket.

This goal shocked the audience with "wow" sounds.

Three-pointers can always excite people's hearts, especially Meng Lang's three-pointers!
  "North Carolina is in trouble!"

If there were still people who didn't understand the intention of Old K's adjustment before, - after all, the news came out too suddenly. When the big screen showed the starting list, the game also started, and Old K didn't give any reaction time at all. . ——But now everyone understands.

Meng Lang plays the fourth position to take advantage of Kevin Thompson's slow movement ability. Another point is Kevin Thompson's defensive inertia!
  He stood at the basket as a habit. Under Montrose's urging, he just saw Meng Lang waiting outside the three-point line.

By that time it was too late.

"damn it!"

Steve's expression turned gloomy. Although it had only been one round, he clearly understood the damage that Meng Lang's strategic point at the fourth position could cause.

In fact, the hidden danger of North Carolina's "double height" is this:
  They move slowly.

Even ordinary fans know that "small against big" on the outside and "big against small" on the inside are the two easiest ways to score.

But North Carolina also has a good player like George Lynch on the outside, so Steve is not worried about the frequent opportunities for being "beaten up" by the opponent.

Think about it, when a "small hit big" opportunity appeared on the opposite side, how much damage did their big man cause inside first?

The disgusting thing about Duke is:
  Old K placed Meng Lang, an outside player, in the fourth position, forcing a continuous "small against the big"!
  So even if Gordon succeeded in the next breakthrough, his frown did not relax.

But the bad news doesn't stop there.

In the next round, Kevin Thompson followed this time. Hill, who took the ball from Hurley, saw that there was only one Montrose left under the basket. He immediately stepped on the accelerator and dumped George Lynch in one step. behind.

"NCAA's fastest first step", breakthrough is so simple!
  Montrose was ready to cover for Lynch. But he didn't expect Hill to reach the inside so easily.

When he took another step forward, Hill, whose legs were charging up, had already jumped up in front of him.

"Bah!"

The sound of a heavy slam exploded above Montrose's head.

The explosion made him dizzy.

This is the second role of Meng Lang’s No. [-] position:

Make room!

Huge cheers instantly echoed throughout Cameron Arena.

The crazy Duke fans were completely ignited by Hill's dunk.

North Carolina, on the other hand, is like a small boat in the storm. It seems that it may capsize at any time.

Montrose didn't know how he completed the serve. He ran in a daze. As soon as he landed in Duke's defense zone, he heard the continuous cheers getting louder again.

Looking up, the staggering Gordon rushed towards Duke No. 9 next to him with a face full of eagerness, and the ball in his hand disappeared...

Where's the ball?

This question soon had an answer:

In the hands of Duke No. 9.

Obviously, what he had warned before the game happened.

Gordon glanced at Montrose, flushed, like a bewildered child. He now understood why Montrose had warned him so many times.

But it was too late, Hill started running again.

He was obviously dunking high. He took a step under the basket, turned around and saw that no North Carolina player was catching up. He immediately became excited and a "big windmill on the spot" came!
  "Bah!"

After this goal, Duke's lead suddenly reached 9-2.

Jordan was also completely "red-tempered", stood up, and turned off the TV.

This alma mater cannot support you at all!
