Chapter 53: Oiwake
But USC\'s substitutes also tried their best to defend, and for a while, Michigan State University couldn\'t make the score too big in a short time.
And all the main players clenched their hands as they watched the substitute try their best to defend and score.
The substitute is buying time for the main players. This year USC is really united.
Everyone wants to be at the top, everyone wants to get the highest honor.
This year is also the year with the most opportunities for USC, and no one wants to regret their youth.
Vucevic sat on the sidelines, a little lost.
Seeing Vucevic\'s appearance, Lian Dao looked at Vucevic firmly, and patted Vucevic on the shoulder.
"Trust us, we will win!"
Vucevic nodded, and the two clenched their fists and touched!
The depth of Southern California\'s bench lineup is indeed not as good as that of Michigan State University.
In the opening 9 minutes, Southern California has trailed by 13 points.
At this time, Tim really couldn\'t sit still.
After calling a timeout, he said directly to the main players: "We will play unlimited screens, sickle, after you catch the ball, shoot a three-pointer, and we will recover the score in the shortest possible time!"
"Also, pay attention to defense, we must strengthen defense!"
After the University of Southern California replaced the main lineup, Michigan State University, except Drummond Green, also replaced the main lineup.
Lian Dao took the first ball on the court and got a chance on the outside through the cover of his teammates.
After adjusting his shot, he raised the knife and dropped it directly.
The moment he made the shot, Lian Dao felt that the ball was there!
"brush!"
Three points hit!
Next, USC stepped up its defensive intensity, and Chris Allen was directly intercepted by DeMar on a layup.
Then pass the ball to Lian Dao, Lian Dao dribbled the ball all the way, came to the brakes directly outside the three-point line, and then directly made a pull-up shot.
Hit again!
In turn, Draymond Green also scored a layup through the screen of his teammates.
USC served the ball directly, and everyone ran wildly, just to play a fast break!
Lian Dao once again threw Drummond Green away through running positions and screens.
Then immediately after catching the ball, it was an outside three-pointer.
Return!
In the opening game, Lian Dao scored three three-pointers directly.
A wave of 9:2 was played.
The score came: 68:74
USC trails by 6 points!
At this time, Tom Izzo was also in a hurry and shouted directly.
"Defend, pay attention to the rhythm, don\'t play fast break with them! Waste time!"
To say that the old man Tom Izzo deserves to be a champion coach, he sees the problem to the point.
As soon as USC came on the court, it played fast breaks and defended counterattacks, because Michigan State was slow, so it could play a defensive time difference.
Although, Draymond Green made up for their slow speed inside to a certain extent on the court.
But it is undeniable that their center speed is not as good as Gibson.
So every time USC has a fast break, Michigan State only has four players on the field.
Tom Izzo recognizes the problem too, but the problem is, he\'s already putting all the quick players on the field.
Even the substitute Draymond Green did not choose to replace him.
Just worried that USC will play their hidden tactic of this season "running and bombing" in the last ten minutes!
However, they still couldn\'t defend against USC\'s fast break. They could only fight positional battles with USC like the Spurs restrained the Suns, which took time!
But Southern California is not the Suns, they have a strong defensive ability.
Southern California will not play a big game with Michigan!
In the next round, Draymond Green\'s teammates failed to block Lian Dao\'s screen, causing Green\'s mid-range shot to be slapped by Lian Dao.
When fighting for the ball with Green, Lian Dao controlled the ball.
Then it was all the way to run wildly.
Drummond Green leaned against Lian Dao, preventing him from accelerating.
After Lian Dao suddenly accelerated outside the three-point line, he braked suddenly, and then stepped down to dribble.
Take a step back to the three-point line and shoot straight away.
At this time, Green couldn\'t stop the car because of the sudden deceleration, and when he saw Lian Dao shooting, it was like jumping to interfere.
But the brain commands are fed back to the legs, and there is no time to respond.
At this time, looking at the big screen, Drummond Green\'s legs seemed to trip over his left foot with his right foot, and then he lay directly on the floor.
Cooperating with Lian Dao\'s sudden dribble under the crotch and then a step-back shot just now, the impression given to the audience is: Lian Dao swayed to Drummond Green and completed the score!
All the audience held their heads in their hands, their eyes widened in horror, and their mouths were O-shaped.
Is this what a striker should do?
This move is difficult even for a defender.
The taller the body and the heavier the weight, the more difficult it is to stop and brake suddenly, because the knees can\'t stand the sudden acceleration.
However, this action has been seen in the striker who is 2.06 meters tall in shoes!
This made all the audience feel incredible.
After the surprise, everyone applauded!
At this time, the commentator of the stadium also sighed loudly, Lian Dao\'s goal was incredible.
At this time, the scout in the auditorium had already written in his notebook: The talent is amazing and can be cultivated as the cornerstone of the team.
Drummond Green knows that he has become the background board of the best goal of the day!
Immediately, his already dark face turned dark again.
Fortunately, he was already black, so others didn\'t notice!
71:74.
USC is only three points behind!
There are still 2 minutes until the end of the game!
Draymond Green asked for the ball from beyond the arc after Michigan State made a big serve.
At this time, Drummond Green was anxious and angry.
Now he just wants to score on Lian Dao\'s head, to wash away the shame of being knocked down just now.
So catches the ball and strikes a triple-threat pose from beyond the arc.
When Lian Dao stepped forward, he immediately made a breakthrough gesture, and Lian Dao immediately retracted his steps.
This is him jumping straight up and shooting a three-pointer.
Lian Dao followed closely behind and jumped up vigorously, stretching his palm up as hard as he could.
At this time, after jumping, Drummond Green felt a little regretful when he saw Lian Dao\'s disturbing palm.
But at this time, it has already taken off, and there is no way but to adjust the height of its shot.
When Lian Dao saw Drummond Green\'s hand shape, he knew that the ball was missing.
Drummond Green also knew that the ball was missing, so he wanted to report to grab a rebound.
But Lian Dao got stuck in his route.
The two shouted at the same time:
"Rebound!"
At this time, Gibson\'s flexibility came into play. He jumped up before Golan Sutton and collected the rebound.
Lian Dao saw this, and as a result, Gibson passed the ball to DeMar without stopping.
Then he ran all the way and received a pass from DeMar three minutes and two meters away from Michigan State.
Lian Dao saw that everyone at Michigan State was standing near the three-point line.
So directly close to the LOGO, he shot a super long three-pointer!
At this time, I feel that all the air is quiet!
Only the trajectory of the basketball across the sky remains, and everyone is watching the basketball.
Tim clenched his fist and put it next to his mouth, his teeth clenched tightly at the base of his index finger.
The insiders keep praying: must enter, must enter!
Tom Izzo was also watching the basketball nervously, and suddenly showed a disappointed expression!
The basketball went through the hoop and over the net!
Go in!
74:74, University of Southern California tied the score!
