Countercurrent and become a superstar

Chapter 11: You call this the ACC Conference Championship Finals? It's clearly a crushing situation!

Back, Wake Forest offense.

After receiving the serve from the baseline, Qin Yang took two steps and was immediately pressed by Chris Duhon.

After Jay Williams brought his motorcycle talents to the NBA, Duhon, who had been suppressed for several years, wanted to improve too much.

"Du Hong, who is in third grade, wants to cause trouble.

Of course, his defensive combat effectiveness can also determine the direction of the game. "In the commentary room, commentator Brooke Jerry said calmly.

“Furthermore, sitting on the bench of the Duke Blue Devils is second-round point guard Daniel Ewing who has the potential to be a second-round pick.

Coupled with Qin Yang's outstanding performance on the court, it was also the key to Wake Forest University's win over Georgia Tech. Now in the point guard duel, the advantage lies with Duke, who still has the advantage. Duhong chose to press the whole court, which is very reasonable. Already..."

At the beginning of the game, the ACC League's 4th consecutive championship leader immediately showed a continuous aggression and pressure like the waves of a river.

Wake Forest University has not yet sorted out its clues on the defensive end. On the offensive end, the Duke Blue Devils have already taken action against Josh Howard. Unexpectedly, they are not satisfied and will continue to control Wake Forest University relatively weakly. Pressure from the guard position.

On offense, they were in and out, attacking from up and down in multiple ways. On defense, Wake Forest suppressed everything that could raise its head. It was very domineering.

Bang-!
Facing the pressing, Tan Yang calmly used his body to open the way, knocked Du Hong staggering, and then turned around and dribbled the ball forward.

Du Hong defended very tenaciously and continued to press. Tan Yang changed direction and continued to dribble forward.

He steadily dribbled the ball past half-court, then continued to be a tool man, passing the basketball to Josh Howard on the left wing, and then moved to the top arc.

"Qin Yang did not cut out to the bottom corner, but moved to the top arc position, not giving Duke a double gate to defend from the outside, and continued to double-check Josh Howard.

Outside the 70-degree three-point line on the left, Josh Howard held the ball and singled out Deng Tai Jones, a triple threat.

Oh, Jones bullied him and pressed forward, not giving Josh Howard room to shoot..."

Josh Howard found a breakthrough gap, and he wiped it in.

Dengtai Jones fought and retreated. While guarding the middle, he was always guarding in front of Josh Howard. Sheldon Williams on the left basket came out to help defend and flanked Josh Howard with Jones.

Josh Howard was not used to them. He paused, turned his back, and then turned back. Then, he pulled the ball and faced the difficulty. Using the change in rhythm and the sudden explosion, he rushed to the basket for a layup...

Sheldon Williams did not jump. Like Jones, he just reached out to cover the basket and controlled the arc and direction of the shot to reduce Josh Howard's shooting percentage. As for whether Josh Howard can shoot the basketball, they It doesn't matter anymore.

Bang-dang——!
“Still missed!
It's a fight again, Wake Forest University's offensive scoring account has not yet been opened.

This attack was in vain... No, it's not over yet. Rick Williams jumped up and regained the basketball that Josh Howard missed.

He landed and wanted to get up to finish the shot, but he was surrounded by people and had no room to take action. He had to pass the ball to Chris Ellis on the other side. The latter caught the ball and immediately shot a jumper from close range. There...

No, my God, they went in, they jumped out, and God wasn’t on their side..."

Bang-dang——!
Continuous hits missed, Wake Forest University's sword had not yet seen blood, and the offense was all misfired.

The basketball was picked off by Shafri Randolph and then Chris Duhon drove the ball forward.

Tan Yang continues to play soy sauce. At this time, his situation is that he joins the Lakers with Westbrook and stays with James.
And when Harden joins the 76ers and plays with Embiid, it's the same. He plays off the ball and takes positional shots, and naturally he doesn't have many scenes.

Everyone is on different channels, one is AM, the other is FM. Even Westbrook and Harden can't solve the problem, and Tan Yang can't do it either!

In transition, Duke attacks.

Chris Duhon controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and JJ Redick and Dengtae Jones on the left and right wings continued to cut without the ball.

“Justin Gray was down half a length again, and he was blocked by Sheldon Williams again, and this time, Rick Williams didn’t extend the defense.

Tan Yang, who was in the top arc, went out and he stepped forward to press Chris Duhon's left side.

With a beautiful turn, Du Hong seemed to have predicted Tan Yang's movements, turned around and dribbled the ball to the right to break through. Tan Yang was too slow and he couldn't go back..."

Du Hong passed by Tan Yang just like passing through the streets in the early morning.

Originally, Kidd was not good at defending small and fast point guards, but now Tan Yang forced Du Hong, who was 1 meters tall, and lost his position. He could only watch Du Hong enter the penalty area.

“Shafri Randolph used his body to carry Chris Ellis, and Duhon had an unimpeded drive to the end.

With Josh Howard's help on defense, before he could pounce on him, he had already hit the rebound under the basket and called it a day..."

Boom, swish—!
Duke's offensive firepower continued with Chris Duhon's driving layup.

0 to 7! !
After the goal, Chris Duhon ran back to the court from outside the baseline, and immediately raised his palms up, signaling the home fans to cheer and enjoy the 'Show Time' of the Duke Blue Devils offense, without even jumping to the technical stage. Yell, this is my horse!
The fans in Cameron Arena were also a group of crazy fans. They wore blue jerseys and had face paint. They stretched out their fingers in unison and started shaking them. The entire arena, like a blue ocean, burst into cheers like a tsunami.

You call this the ACC Conference Championship Finals?

This is clearly a crushing game where the Duke Blue Devils are about to slaughter their opponents.

On the sidelines, Skip Prosser rushed to the court to applaud, and then made a gesture to ask the players on the court to stabilize and calm down.

The more times like this come, the more you have to hold back. If you let go, you will most likely lose it.

The game is over.

“If you can’t attack, you can’t defend!

Was Wake Forest blown away in the game?

How should they respond next?
Will we fall into the abyss or climb up from the cliff?
When there are problems in the game, confusion arises, and you don't know how to defeat your opponent, the general solution is naturally to return to the origin of the team's main tactics. "

In the NBC commentary room, Chris Rose talked about conventional tactical thinking and then commented.

"The starting point of Wake Forest University is naturally to rely on Josh Howard to kill the opponent's scorer defensively, and then, offensively, use Josh Howard to break down the opponent's defense.

It’s just a pity that the last semifinal game against Georgia was fine, but this game against the Duke Blue Devils is very likely to come back..."

The question is about the scorer of the Duke Basketball Devils. He is not concentrated in the hands of one person. The number of shots taken by the main players is very average.

For example, JJ Redick and Dengtae Jones average about 15 shots per game, while other players basically take about 10 shots.

JJ Redick's off-ball connection seems very important to this Duke Blue Devils, but it doesn't have to be important if necessary.

If Josh Howard guards J.J. Redick, Dengta Jones or others, the number of shots will increase.

JJ Redick is likely to take Josh Howard for a ride without the ball, or stay in the corner to smoke and watch the show. Wake Forest University's core concept of defensive tactics has been abandoned from the beginning, and Josh Howard can solve it alone. Doesn't solve all problems.

No way, since we can't use conventional tactics to break the situation defensively, we can only find a way to attack offensively first.

Wake Forest University attacked, Qin Yang controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and continued to distribute the ball to Josh Howard to break the game.

"Josh Howard feinted, but Deng Tai Jones ignored it at all. He just pressed forward and didn't give him any space to shoot. Is he trying to force Josh Howard to break through?

Then, Sheldon Williams under the basket took action and teamed up with Jones to sanction Josh Howard.

Duke University's defensive philosophy is very targeted!

Josh Howard broke in, instead of going to the left, he broke through to the right.

Driving in, Chris Duhon shrank and defended a zone with Jones.

Oops, Josh Howard is still not used to them. He rushes to the penalty area and immediately stops and pulls up the ball. Is he going to take on the entire Duke Blue Devils by himself... No, in the air, Josh Howard dumps the blame. Damn it. basketball, thrown to the back of his head.

Tan Yang received the ball from the top of the arc. He was free, raised his hand, and shot a three-point jumper..."

Chris Duhon rushed back quickly, but he lost 185 days. No matter how active the defense was, he still couldn't reach it and could only listen to the gunshot.

Swish-!
“Yes!!

Qin Yang hit a three-pointer and finally helped Wake Forest University open its scoring account.

It's so critical. Qin Yang's three-point goal was just timely, giving Wake Forest University some breathing space..."

3 to 7! !
After Qin Yang scored, he shook his finger at Chris Duhon.

"Basketball is not a one-person sport!
Don't think that solving Josh Howard will solve Wake Forest.

It’s still early, you’re celebrating so early and you haven’t asked me yet! "

"Good shot! Just like that, Tan Yang, fire hard at them!
The game has just begun! "

When returning to defense, Josh Howard found Tan Yang to give him a high-five and said a few nice words. He also told himself to encourage himself and regain his confidence in winning.
