Chapter 87 Anxiety
Although everyone at UCLA was full of confidence before the opening, the development of things was always unexpected.

The University of Washington, which sits at home, showed a very strong competitive state. Under the tough defense of An Luo, Holiday and Alex, they played back and forth with UCLA.However, the calm situation between the two sides lasted only 12 minutes.When Alford started to rotate players, UCLA's offense collapsed.

Although he only rotated two players, the chemical reaction is sometimes so mysterious.Several good opportunities were wasted, and Alford was so angry that he stared on the sidelines.Fortunately, the defense was still above the standard, which didn't allow the University of Washington to widen the point difference too much.

However, Alford quickly replaced An Luo and Alex.They only rested for less than 4 minutes.

However, the two people who reappeared did not immediately reverse the situation.

The same history happened again. When UCLA lost to the University of Kansas, the opponent's players broke out.This time, they seem to have met again.

Someone on the Washington bench stood up, relying on his abnormally accurate outside shooting to stalemate with the complete UCLA.Seeing this situation, the opponent's head coach simply let his main players sit on the bench.After all, if this situation continues, it will be almost impossible for UCLA to win here.

In fact, it's not to blame Holiday for not defending well, he defended his face, and he was able to make a shot.What can he do with such an unreasonable three-pointer?He understood the feelings of those who defended An Luo, they were so helpless.

Faced with such a person, Alford has no good way to solve it.In desperation, he could only let An Luo go up and compete with the opponent.Since you can't defend the opponent, then suppress the opponent on offense.

Therefore, in the last 4 minutes of the first half, An Luo became the most active person in UCLA.It felt like returning to the time when Ninth Middle School played in the high school league.

In fact, whether it is campus basketball or professional basketball, the audience is very happy to see such a scene of scoring against each other.Americans all have a heroic plot, and the scene of defeating the opponent and saving the team by one's own strength excites them the most.Therefore, on the basketball court, whenever the players of the two teams start to score each other, it will ignite the passion of the fans on the scene.

As soon as An Luo came up, he showed his extremely strong three-pointer.Even against Washington University's perimeter defensive leader Dejounte Murray, he is equally strong.

After An Luo returned to the field, Holiday finally breathed a sigh of relief.He was under too much pressure.Alex still stood one meter inside the free throw line as always, ready to go outside to cover An Luo or Holiday at any time.

In the new round, Holiday controlled the ball, and under the cover of Alex, he went inside.At this time, An Luo had slipped to the bottom corner under the cover of Prince.Although Murray's follow-up speed is not slow, Holiday's ball comes faster.Almost as soon as An Luo's front foot stepped beyond the three-point line, the ball came into his hands.Without hesitation, he jumped up and shot, took a look at the arc of the basketball flying out, patted his chest, and then ran to the backcourt without turning back, preparing to return to defense.

There were boos in the arena, this guy is really crazy.If this was at the Pali Stadium, An Luo's name would probably resound through the sky!

On the defensive end, An Luo is also very active.He took the initiative to switch defenses with Holiday, and he wanted to personally stare at the opponent's over-accurate three-pointer, Holiday was so happy.

"Dude, what's your name?" An Luo opened his hands, trying to lower his body's center of gravity as much as possible to maintain his mobility.Then he stared at each other and asked suddenly: "Do you know that guy? I know his name is Dejounte, a first-year player, but what's your name?"

The expression is full of sarcasm.But the opponent was obviously an experienced player, and he didn't pay attention to An Luo.He kept dribbling the ball under his crotch, looking for opportunities.It's a pity that he tried several times, but he couldn't break through or make a three-pointer.The yellow-skinned player opposite him can always interrupt his rhythm at critical moments.There is no way, in the end, he can only pass the ball to his teammates, who catches the ball and makes a hasty shot, but fails to hit.

"You are finished! A three-pointer, you must not doubt yourself."

After An Luo said this, he rushed forward quickly. He didn't observe the position of his teammates, he just needed to get rid of the defender and run out of the open space.

But this time, Murray returned to defense too quickly.An Luo was not given a chance to catch and shoot the ball.He could only control the ball and stepped back near the midfield.He needs distance to initiate the offense.The opponent didn't stick too close at this time, after all, it was too far away from the three-point line, so it must be a defense against penetration or a shot.

An Luo kept cross-dribbling the ball, controlling the rhythm.With seven seconds left on the shot clock, he sprang into action.Although his first step was not fast, he was still one step ahead of the opponent.Normally, he would have shot as soon as he reached his offensive range, but today he didn't dare.The guy behind is a good shot blocker, and he doesn't want to be someone else's background board.He paused, letting Murray catch up to him, and accelerated again, about to sprint inside.Murray couldn't take care of thinking at the moment, he quickly retreated to the three-point line, but An Luo made an emergency stop and directly shot a three-pointer.

This is the first time he relies on the rhythm of possession to get rid of defenders and gain space for shots.A little jerky, but fortunately, the effect is not bad.

"Hey, this is three points! No matter what, you have to do it yourself."

After returning, An Luo said another sentence to the No. 2 position.Then he made a [-] gesture, which means that he made two three-pointers.

No one wants to be compared to others, especially in their field of expertise.The same goes for the player at the University of Washington.He didn't pass the ball out this round, but shot a super long three-pointer against An Luo's defense.He originally wanted to get closer, but An Luo followed too closely, and kept entangled him after passing the midfield.In fact, he couldn't even pass the ball without a teammate to catch him.In the end, he had no choice but to squeeze out a little space and make a move.

He leaned towards An Luo and wanted to make a three-point foul, but the latter saw his intentions and moved away from his body while he was jumping.Only use your hands to block the other person's view.This is a very useful defensive move.An Luo, who was blocking shots, didn't want to think about it. In this face-to-face situation, the opponent is taller than himself, and the difficulty is still too great.

Of course the ball didn't go in, not only didn't go in, but he threw himself down.
