NBA: No. 1 Forward

Chapter 60: build advantage



Chapter 60: build advantage

In the commentary seat, Barkley saw that USC got a 5-0 start in the opening game, and Barkley was so happy that he couldn't help but grin from ear to ear!

Buckley felt that this was the effect of his poisonous milk!

However, the Louisville Cardinals are experienced in the end. Terrence Williams didn't have a touch at the beginning, so he stopped forcing shots.

Instead, use the breakthrough to attract the defense, and then pass the ball to an open teammate on the outside.

Jerry Smith hit a three-pointer after passing the ball from the outside at this time.

Then in the next round, Earl Clark also hit a three-pointer from the outside!

However, USC did not show weakness. First, Lian Dao passed Dwight's screen and hit a three-pointer from the outside.

Then it was a breakthrough to Dwight, and Dwight also made a three-pointer from the outside.

Then, Lian Dao interfered with Earl Clark's shooting from outside.

After USC grabbed a rebound, Lian Dao assisted Gibson to hit a three-pointer from the outside.

The University of Southern California started with four three-pointers, and three of them made the shots separately.

14:6.

That prompted Louisville Cardinals head coach Rick Pitino to call a timeout.

Southern California's hand feels up. If the Louisville Cardinals are still in a 2-3 zone defense, then this game may have to go far.

The Louisville Cardinals, who came back from a timeout, really changed their tactics. They no longer used the previous 2-3 zone defense, but a 3-2 zone defense.

This kind of defense is still a defensive method based on zone defense, but his main defensive focus is on perimeter players.

It's a play the Louisville Cardinals are getting hot on the perimeter against Southern California.

USC still uses a 2-3 zone defense.

After returning from a timeout, Terrence Williams continued to try a three-pointer from the outside.

As soon as he made a shot, he immediately ran inside.

At this time, the advantage of USC's 2-3 zone defense is reflected. At this time, the penalty area is simply an iron bucket.

Terrence Williams is simply out of position.

Lian Dao jumped up and reached out to receive the defensive rebound, and after handing it to Daniel Hackett, he ran all the way.

Lian Dao received a pass from Daniel Hackett on the outside.

Seeing the opponent's 3-2 zone defense, Lian Dao didn't force his shot. After passing the basketball directly to Gibson, he threw off Earl Clark's defense and ran to the bottom corner.

Lian Dao, who came to the bottom corner, just received a pass back from Gibson, and directly shot a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

There are two weak spots in the 3-2 zone defense, one of which is the corner three-point line.

17:6.

USC has established an 11-point advantage at this time.

Rick Pitino found that the 3-2 zone defense still couldn't prevent Lian Dao's running position, and he really didn't expect Gibson, a center forward, to pass the ball with one hand.

In fact, Gibson's passing is based on the tactical system, and his own passing ability is not very good.

But this is already very good, this is not a critical moment to teach Rick Pitino a lesson!

At the same time, this kind of pass from Gibson also made the eyes of the scouts shine. They really didn't expect that Gibson, who is already a senior, could come up with something new!

Next, Lian Dao started to focus on Earl Clark.

Sure enough, Terrence Williams missed an outside shot before, so he no longer chooses outside shots,

Instead, it was passed to Earl Clark.

Terrence Williams was a little short on the pass, which made it uncomfortable for Earl Clarke to catch the ball.

So after getting the ball, I adjusted it and took off to prepare to shoot.

It was time for adjustment, and Lian Dao had already arrived.

The two jumped almost at the same time.

Looking at Lian Dao in the air, Earl Clark looked surprised, but he was already in the air and had to make a move.

Although Earl Clark has adjusted his shot height as much as possible.

But it was still rubbed by Lian Dao's fingertips.

After touching it, Lian Dao hurriedly took two steps back to the inside line, and then took off for the second time.

Precisely predict the landing point of the basketball and receive the ball in your hands.

Then there was a long pass, and DeMar made a follow-up dunk.

19:6.

Next, Terrence Williams finally made a three-pointer from the outside.

The Louisville Cardinals also increased their defensive strength against Lian Dao from the outside.

Lian Dao didn't have a better opportunity to make a move for a while.

At this time, DeMar's talent was revealed. He constantly tore apart the opponent's perimeter defense and broke through to the basket to score.

And the opponent's 3-2 zone defense couldn't help Demar's powerful breakthrough ability for a while.

If the outside team double-teams, Lian Dao at the bottom corner will immediately receive a pass from DeMar.

And relying on Lian Dao's open three-point shooting rate, he basically hit the ground running.

And the inside Samardo Samuels goes to help defend, then Gibson will receive a pass from DeMar, and then easily dunk!

At this time, another weak point of the 3-2 zone defense emerged: the basket!

Although the Louisville Cardinals continued to score in the next time.

But Earl Clark was severely restricted by cheap rice.

Earl Clark was taken care of by Lian Dao on the outside line, so he never had a chance to make a call.

On the inside, Earl Clark found that his strength could not support Lian Dao at all.

So far, Earl Clark's layup has been blocked by Lian Dao twice, plus the previous three-point block, it has been three times.

On the offensive end, Lian Dao's outside output also hit Earl Clark without a bit of temper.

This made Earl Clark look depressed.

He even wanted to switch defenses with Terrence Williams.

At this time, Rick Pitino also saw that something was wrong with Earl Clark.

So, the second timeout of the first half was called immediately.

And the score came to 34:18.

"The Louisville Cardinals called a timeout. Earl Clark seemed to have a problem with his mentality. It stands to reason that he is unlikely to have a problem as a junior. But Rick Pitino can definitely find a way to limit sickle."

Barkley continues its unique way of explaining!

But this time he didn't have all the show effects~www.mtlnovel.com~ Because the Louisville Cardinals can't find a way to limit Southern California, then basically the outcome of this game is already decided!

"Rick Pitino should double-team Lian Dao."

"Teaming? Charles, have you forgotten that USC also has DeMar?"

"No, Kenny, compared to DeMar, they have to limit sickle first!"

"As for DeMar, Rick Pitino will definitely work on the paint."

Barkley sees the problem very clearly.

After returning from the timeout, it was no longer Earl Clark but Terrence Williams and Jerry Smith who defended Lian Dao.

As long as Lian Dao holds the ball from the outside, the opponent will form a double team, and Lian Dao passes to DeMar.

Earl Clark's defensive advantage came into play, he directly gave up Dwight and chose to defend DeMar.

This directly led to the setback of Demar's successive attacks.

After DeMar passed the ball to Dwight, Dwight misfired from the outside and missed several shots in succession.

At this time, the Louisville Cardinals actually played a wave of 10:2 offense during this period.

And USC's score advantage has returned to single digits again.

36:28.

At this time, Barkley looked at Kenny, meaning: Sure enough, I expected it!

Tim called a timeout. Although there are still 3 minutes before the end of the first half, if the Louisville Cardinals are allowed to chase points, the opponent is likely to tie the score in the first half.

"Dwight, take a break first, and bring a substitute in the second half." Tim first said to Dwight, who had no touch.

Then he turned his attention to Vucevic.
