king of defenders

Chapter 30 Completely Suppressed

Warm-up is over.

"Patrick, Evan, Ronald, John, Andy, you all start." Mason Carr said: "The opponent is very strong, but it is the third in the Southeast Conference, not the first, and it is not Duke or Kentucky. , North Carolina and these giant teams. There is nothing to be afraid of, cheer up and fight with all your strength."

"Yes." The crowd responded.

Afterwards, Mason Carr spread out the tactical board and did not formulate any special tactics, but emphasized some problems in the original tactics of the Wildcats.

The person in charge of leading the LSU Tigers team this time is the team's assistant coach Frank. He also arranged the tactics and signaled everyone to get ready to play, then looked at Mason Carr with a slight frown.

Most people may not know Mason Carr's background, but he does.

Mason Carr and Scott Bowman, the current head coach of the LSU Tigers, are actually good friends, and it is precisely because of their relationship that there will be such a warm-up match.Otherwise, based on the LSU Tigers' record ranking, they will not play against Davis College, and they will choose a team they think is stronger.

Mason Carr and Scott Bowman are both coaches, but the difference is that Scott Bowman has been in the United States, from a university assistant to a head coach, step by step.

Although Mason Carr is an out-and-out American, he has been in Europe, coaching a professional team in the European League, and has no coaching experience in the United States.

Because of Scott Bowman, Frank and Mason Carr met several times.

In Frank's view, Mason Carr is a geek who doesn't follow common sense and plays cards against common sense. Whether it's coaching players or tactical arrangements, there are always unexpected moves.

It made him unable to see through.

For example, in today's game, in Frank's view, there is no need at all. Davidson University will definitely lose. He doesn't think it will be good for Davidson College. Is it just to find abuse?

"I don't understand." Frank shook his head and looked away.

At this time, the game officially begins.

Players from both sides came to the court. Patrick jumped the ball to win and patted the ball to the backcourt. Andy started to advance after getting the ball and passed it to Evan in the frontcourt.

This is the routine tactics of Davidson College. Starting from Evan, let Evan rely on his personal strength to open the breakthrough. If the opponent does not assist in the defense, he will directly play singles.

Against a team of comparable strength, or a team weaker than himself, this style of play is fine, but against the LSU Tigers, this move cannot be tolerated.

"Singles?" Martin leaned against Evan, with the corners of his mouth raised, and stepped forward half a step, almost touching Evan. He opened one hand and raised the other, and smiled at Evan, "I heard you are from Davidson College." Ace player, I hope you have good strength, otherwise this game will be too boring."

The contempt in the other party's eyes and the sarcasm in his tone made Evan feel annoyed. He frowned, snorted coldly, put his back against Martin, and began to play with his back.

Martin opened his hands, his chest muscles tensed, his body tilted slightly, and he firmly held Evan.

The two were wrestling, Evan was fighting back, and Martin's feet were firmly nailed to the floor. His physical fitness was indeed excellent, but it made Evan helpless, unable to carry it at all.

"It's useless, your body is too weak." The smile on Martin's face grew wider.

Evan snorted coldly, looked at the basket, then suddenly retreated, stood on the floor with one foot, leaned back, and a golden rooster appeared independently, flicking his wrist.

This surprised Martin, who failed to defend and the ball went into the net hollow.

"He actually scored." Looking at Evan who turned around and ran towards his own half, Martin muttered, with a deeper smile on his face, full of bloodlust.

LSU's starters today are center Terrence, power forward Martin, small forward Dennis, shooting guard Ted, and point guard Dick.

Dick advanced to the frontcourt, Martin blocked Evan with one hand, raised the other hand, and asked for the ball in the low post.

When Dick passed the ball, Martin immediately played with his back. His physical fitness was better than Evan's, and his strength was also stronger. Evan couldn't push him, but he couldn't push Evan back.

Here, Patrick frowned secretly, and stepped forward to help Evan defend.

Martin had already seen Patrick, but he didn't care. He pushed back again, then suddenly turned around halfway, and lifted the ball up. It was almost the same action as Evan just now. The chin means to say: "See, I will too."

"Fuck, this guy is so arrogant." Patrick was annoyed.

Evan said: "Okay, this is a game, don't be impulsive. Let's go, it's time for us to attack."

In a blink of an eye, 4 minutes passed in the first quarter.

Meng Yun sat on the bench all the time, but his eyes were on the game on the court. In 4 minutes, the score was 8:4. Davidson College was 4 points behind and was suppressed by the opponent.

"Our style of play is too simple here, and we rely too much on the captain. If the captain can gain the upper hand, then of course there is no problem, but if the captain can't gain the upper hand, the situation will be bad." Meng Yun secretly thought, looking at Mason Carr, seeing Mason Carr's expressionless face, he could only sigh, "I don't know what the coach is thinking?"

Another minute passed, and Mason Carr finally called a timeout for a personnel rotation, but Meng Yun was still sitting on the bench and did not play.

The opponent also carried out a personnel rotation. Frank replaced Martin and replaced Jordan Mitch.

After this substitution, Davidson College is still at a disadvantage. Jordan Mitch is not weak, not much inferior to Frank, especially with a pair of long arms. Even Evan suffered a disadvantage. He was accidentally blocked by Jordan Mitch. The offense directly turned into a mistake. The opponent made a fast break and lost two more points.

It's not just about Evan.

Patrick, Ronald and others did not take advantage of it. The LSU Tigers are indeed strong. They are not weak in every position. Coupled with the blessing of the tactical system, they put a lot of pressure on Davidson College's defense.Except for Evan who can actively create opportunities at this point, everyone else can only wait for opportunities.

Waiting for an opportunity may not necessarily come.

Waiting for an opportunity means falling into a passive position.

Now Davidson College has fallen into a passive position and was almost completely suppressed by the opponent. After only 10 minutes of playing in the first half, the score has become 18:9, and they are 9 points behind.

"beep"

Mason Carr called another timeout, and this time Meng Yun was finally replaced, replacing Andy.

"Come on." Andy and Meng Yun clapped hands, looking weak.

Meng Yun nodded, took a deep breath, and walked onto the court.
