One Guard

Chapter 27: : Fatal blow

   "Lightning! Lightning! Lightning! Lightning!..." The fans all over the stadium shouted the word lightning in a neat and regular manner.

   The scene was completely boiled, and even the commentators wearing earphones in the commentary booth were infected by the deafening shouts.

   The live camera shot immediately gave Yiyang a close-up. The Asian defender didn't have any smile on his face, even though he had just finished a beautiful one-stop fast break.

   Cold, this is what the fans in front of the TV say about Yiyang. Even though the scene is already in full swing, Yiyang still looks cold.

   However, it is precisely because of Yiyang's characteristics that he is so terrible! As a first-year NCAA rookie, he can shuttle through the opponent's defense and make a layup under the blocking of the two leading stars of the Longhorns. Without a calm heart, it would have been impossible to do this.

   Mike James and Bradley glanced at each other. They still couldn't believe that the Asian could accomplish such a beautiful offense on both of them.

   The big screen has begun to play back Yiyang's just one-stop fast break layup, and Yiyang himself also looked up. No one noticed that the corners of the No. 1 guard's mouth were slightly upturned.

   After Yiyang scored such a goal, the Longhorns have fallen behind the Bulldogs by 9 points. And the most terrible thing is that the players of the University of Texas, their self-confidence is about to collapse because of Yiyang.

   Bradley can be said to be one of the best defensive guards in the entire NCAA league. If there is no way for him to take Yiyang, then the others will have nothing to do.

   Sometimes, it takes an entire offensive climax to give the opponent a devastating blow. But sometimes, it only takes a fatal blow!

  Yiyang's layup is worth more than two points. The inner fluctuations of the Longhorns players will make them more and more off track.

   After an offense, Bradley was eager to use a scoring to justify himself, or to restore face to the team. However, young people are always too impatient. Bradley, who is also a first-year student, slammed Yiyang into the penalty area. However, Matt Howard, who was waiting at the basket, made an offensive foul.

   The ball has changed again, and the Bulldogs now have a chance to widen the point difference to double digits.

   Yiyang controlled the ball step by step, and the hearts of the Longhorns players were getting faster and faster.

   This time, Yiyang did not call a pick-and-roll, but suddenly started directly, seemingly intending to wipe Bradley hard by speed.

   Bradley, who was exhausted, moved slowly for a second, and in this second, Yiyang really rushed in.

   When Yiyang plunged into the penalty area, Reggie Miller sitting in the commentary could see that the entire Longhorns defense had shrunk towards Yiyang.

  Yiyang is surrounded by Longhorns players wearing orange jerseys. It seems that this long-driving defender has been driven into desperation.

   But Yiyang didn't intend to end the offense by himself with this ball. Don't forget, the thing this guy likes to do most on the basketball court is to pass the ball! Although Yiyang has found the sense of scoring through several offenses, he has never blindly shot.

   Yiyang hit the ground suddenly, and the basketball bounced off the wooden floor between Mike James and Pittman.

   Everyone hurriedly turned their heads, but they all took a breath. At the bottom left corner, Gordon Hayward is just in place. The leading scorer of the Bulldogs is almost impossible to waste such open shots!

   Mike James ran on his feet, hoping to interfere with Hayward's shooting as much as possible. However, it was too late. Yiyang's wonderful pass allows Hayward to make a comfortable shot without even adjusting. When Mike James raised his arm and leaped high, the basketball had already flown into the air.

   Rick Barnes stared at the spinning basketball, how he hoped that the basketball would knock out of the box. Because if the point difference on the field is widened to ten, Barnes' work will be very difficult to carry out.

   The basketball hit the side of the hoop first, and then bounced up vertically. Pittman and Matt fought fiercely at the basket, and both sides hope to get the ball in this crucial round.

   However, the basketball that bounced back into the air fell directly into the net. 32 to 44, the University of Texas Longhorns officially fell behind Butler University by 12 points!

   Hayward raised his hands happily and made a "3" gesture. After that, he pointed to Yiyang, and nodded gently to thank the latter.

The wonderful series of   Yiyang finally gave Hayward, who had been silent for a long time, a chance to exhale.

   The first half of the game was only two minutes away, and the Longhorns were 12 points behind. The most terrible thing is that the main players under Barnes are exhausted. The only option for Barnes is to send a substitute player on the field.

   Stevens, he also changed all five starters. Now that the team is far ahead, Stevens can safely use the rotation.

   But under the leadership of Yiyang's substitute Nolid, the Bulldogs' second team played quite well. At the end of the half-time game, the difference between the two sides was pulled to 17 points!

   After returning to the locker room during the intermission, everyone joked with Yiyang. There is no doubt that his magical one-stop fast break has left a deep impression on his teammates.

   In the second half, the two sides changed sides to fight again. Although this game was played in the Neutral Arena, there is no doubt that it has now actually become the home court of Butler University. Because Yiyang just got the ball in the second half of the game, the fans screamed frantically.

   This is Mike James' breakthrough layup, but Hayward interfered. Yiyang caught the defensive rebound, and the atmosphere on the scene changed instantly.

   In the fans' "escort", Bradley has changed from a defensive hero to a defensive loophole. The zero guard worked very hard, but he couldn't find a way to limit Yiyang.

   A player who can throw and pass and keep his head clear at all times is the most difficult to defend. Because this is not a problem of individual defense, once this kind of guard is really opened, it will be activated by the entire team!

   At the beginning of the second half of the game, Yiyang did not continue his scoring journey, but did a good job as a point guard.

   As for why this is the case, it was Stevens's arrangement. As long as the team can control the situation at the beginning of the second half, the University of Texas will not be able to cause any more storms.

"Yi's passing route is very clear. He first gave the ball to Hayward, and Hayward shot to the rim. Then it was Shelvin Mark! Mark received Hayward's pass on the free throw line. A light shot and two more points! Although this is not a direct assist from Yi, it also reflects the tactics arranged by the coach. For a number one position, this is enough!"

   "Also steals Pittman! Why does Coach Barnes keep Pittman on the court? This guy completely messed up the situation on the court!"

   "From the aerial cooperation with Shervin Mark! BOOM, domineering dunk! Shervin Mark is really amazing!"

  Yiyang's name has become Reggie Miller's most common word. And the fighting spirit of the University of Texas, like dying fireworks, is getting bleak.

   By the fifth minute of the second half, Bradley and the others had no strength to break through. But in order to be able to bite the 10-point difference, the University of Texas had to attack.

   So, they chose one of their worst ways to fight-shooting.

   At the beginning, Bradley successfully hit a three-pointer on Yiyang. Everyone seemed to see hope at that moment, even Barnes thought so.

   However, that three-pointer became the only three-pointer Bradley scored in this game. In the subsequent games, whether it was Bradley or Mike James, the shortcomings of their poor shooting skills were exposed.

   Stevens still implements the principle of letting go. Faced with a lot of open positions, the University of Texas can’t make a shot.

  The hope of victory seems to have become increasingly elusive for the University of Texas...

  ※※※

   Bradley was dribbling the ball tiredly. He looked up at the score and time on the big screen at the scene. That little energy seemed to be taken away in an instant.

   In front of Bradley, is Yiyang, who has become famous in the first battle. Stevens has long been replaced by the bench, but Yiyang is the only starter still present. With him, the young marshal of the Bulldogs will not worry that the University of Texas will come back.

  Bradley was called by ESPN to be a guard at the same level as Wall in high school. This round-headed, round-headed, small-eyed guy didn't know what made him look like this embarrassing appearance.

In fact, Bradley’s 16 points, 5 assists, 3 rebounds and 1 blocked shot are not bad today. UU read www.uukanshu.com and Yiyang is under Bradley’s defense. Only 14 points are credited.

   Judging from the performance on the court, Yiyang really left Bradley several blocks away.

   Bradley shook his head, this is not the time to think about it. This offense will determine whether the Longhorns have any hope. If you score, there are only 7 points left, and the game can continue. If you miss, the game will enter the garbage time 50 seconds earlier.

   Bradley couldn't help increasing the frequency of his dribbling, and Yiyang, who was thinking about it as he stepped back, knew that this zero number is going to be sudden!

   Bradley rushed forward suddenly, his strong body seemed to be able to knock out the slightly thin Yiyang.

  Yiyang did not try to block, but dragged the offensive pace of the zero guard on the side of Bradley.

   Bradley suddenly stopped, and Yiyang was pulled away in an instant!

   The zero guard who was eager to counterattack took a shot directly after he withdrew. Just as he lifted the basketball, Yiyang saw the right time and slapped the basketball in Bradley's hands!

   The basketball dropped, Yiyang hurried up to pick up the basketball and then pushed forward quickly.

   After landing, Bradley, who was exhausted, suddenly weakened his legs and fell to the ground.

   He missed the most important offense because of that Asian defender. Missing this offense also means...

"Let’s congratulate the Butler University Bulldogs, who have advanced to the top 32 of the NCAA March Madness Championship!" Reggie Miller’s voice even spread to the court, and Bradley, who was sitting on the ground, closed his own tightly. eye. An unwilling tear was squeezed out from the corner of the eye.

   For him, everything is over!
