Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

The game officially begins.

The starting five of the University of Connecticut came on the court, namely center Phillip Nolan, power forward Niles Giever, small forward DeAndre Daniels, shooting guard Ryan Boatwright, and point guard Shaba Ts-Napier.

Several people looked at each other with Zhuang Yu and others, their eyes flashing with fierce light, and their fierce fighting spirit seemed to be condensed into substance.

"Ah......"

There was an uproar in the audience.

You know, this is the first time many people have seen someone pass Zhuang Yu head-on without relying on pick-and-rolls or physical confrontation.

"Hmph, what a defensive genius, nothing more than that." Napier curled his lips, dropped a sneer, and rushed towards the three-second zone.

It has to be said that Napier is very strong, and his breakthrough alone is stronger than the opponents Zhuang Yu has encountered before.

But he still underestimated Zhuang Yu.

When Napier passed him by half, Zhuang Yu quickly made an adjustment, immediately turned around, fell tightly behind Napier, and followed him into the three-second zone.

Napier was very confident. After passing Zhuang Yu, there was Latvis in front of him, but he didn't take Latvis seriously and jumped directly towards Latvis.

"Looking for death." Latvis roared, jumping up to block the shot.

However, Napier was clearly prepared when he dared to take a shot against him. He did not choose a layup, but chose a high rebound to increase the arc and avoid the block.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly poked out from the thorn, and before Napier could lift the ball, he cut it off.

"What?" Napier was stunned. What happened?

When he looked back, he only saw a figure from behind. Zhuang Yu had already grabbed the basketball and quickly launched a counterattack.

Napier reacted at this time, cursed with a dark face, and hurriedly chased after him, but it was already too late.

I saw Zhuang Yu rushing to the frontcourt like lightning, throwing away everyone, and then jumped up and performed a two-handed slam dunk.

Bang!

There was an explosion, and there were enthusiastic cheers and screams from the audience.

There was a dunk just at the beginning of the game, which made the fans unable to react. The surprise came too suddenly.

Zhou Zhiming stood up quickly and cheered loudly.

At this time, Zhuang Yu had already landed on the ground and turned around. He looked towards Zhou Zhiming and winked playfully, as if asking for credit from Zhou Zhiming.

"This kid, haha..." Zhou Zhiming laughed happily.

The score is 2:0.

When the University of Connecticut attacked, Napier came to the frontcourt with a dark face. When he saw Zhuang Yu approaching, he snorted angrily and said, "I was just careless, otherwise..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhuang Yu rushed forward, launched a pressing defense, got close to Napier, and started to take out the ball. Napier was shocked, and he swallowed the words that came to his lips, and turned around half-way. , guarding the ball carefully, his expression even more ugly.

Zhuang Yu pouted, thinking that you are talking too much nonsense.

His teammates came up to pick and roll, Napier retreated a little, then accelerated and moved sideways, using his teammates' pick and roll to get rid of Zhuang Yu. But in a blink of an eye, Zhuang Yu caught up again. Napier did not dare to be the same as before this time. He frowned, hesitated, and passed the ball.

Since he couldn't get rid of Zhuang Yu completely, there was no chance of singles.

After passing the ball several times, it was given to power forward Giefer. Giefer singled out Parker. Anderson immediately went up to help defend, but Giefer still chose to take action.

boom!

The goal didn't go in, but center Phillip Nolan got the rebound and then tipped it in, making the score 2:2.

......

The University of Connecticut's inside line does have considerable advantages. The two inside players have enough height. Even small forward Daniels is 206cm tall. With the height and weight advantages of the inside line, even if UCLA has help defense, it cannot Completely preventing them from scoring.

However, what makes University of Connecticut fans more depressed is that the team's core defender Napier is not playing well.

At first, he was able to forcefully break through Zhuang Yu's defense with his speed and technique, but after a few times Zhuang Yu gained experience, and whenever Napier wanted to make a move, he would always respond in advance.

Even if Napier rushed over, with Zhuang Yu's speed, he couldn't completely get rid of Zhuang Yu. With Zhuang Yu's cat behind him, and Zhuang Yu being more than ten centimeters taller than Napier, Napier was beaten very hard. It's very uncomfortable and it's hard to do movements.

Several times in a row, even if he passed Zhuang Yu, he could only choose to pass the ball.

Once he chooses to attack by himself, he will definitely encounter attacks from both front and back, and with his height, it will be too difficult to score the ball.

......

"boom!"

There was a muffled sound, and Napier's throw hit the iron.

Napier cursed "Damn" in frustration and could only turn around and retreat quickly.

And when it came to the defensive end, it was equally difficult for him to face Zhuang Yu.

Although he was confident that with his own speed, Zhuang Yu would not easily pass him by, but the problem was that Zhuang Yu did not break through at all. He was more than ten centimeters taller, and with his "quick jump shot" skills, there was no need for Zhuang Yu to pass him by. Napier, just shoot at him.

"Pick and roll."

Zhuang Yu called a pick-and-roll, but he had no intention of using the pick-and-roll to break through. He just confused Napier, then opened a little distance, and took a sideways step to shoot a three-pointer.

With a "swish" sound, the basketball entered the net hollowly.

"Fake." Napier was extremely depressed.

I have never played such a frustrating game before. Facing Zhuang Yu was really uncomfortable.

On the offensive end, it is difficult for him to beat Zhuang Yu alone, but on the defensive end, he has to be beaten by Zhuang Yu in isolation, and they are completely unreasonable. Even if they are higher than you, they can directly pull out, even if they can make... Pierre was on the verge of tears and almost burst into tears.

"Requesting a timeout."

UConn called a timeout.

The head coach glanced at the scoreboard and saw that the score was 13:10. The point difference was really not that big. Even judging from the point difference alone, there was no need to call a timeout.

Isn't it just a three-pointer? He caught up with one ball.

But it's not about the score.

Several players came off the court, and Napier looked very ugly. After a few minutes, he only scored 2 points, and he still relied on free throws, which meant that he missed a single shot.

It's not all because of Zhuang Yu, but it's largely because of Zhuang Yu.

Sometimes it was because of Zhuang Yu's strict defense, which made him feel uncomfortable and failed to make a shot; sometimes it was because of his own unbalanced mentality, and the reason for his mentality at that time was still because of Zhuang Yu.

"Shabazz." Napier, the head coach, said in a deep voice: "Calm down your mood. You have to calm down."

"Coach, I..."

"Okay." The head coach interrupted: "I don't mean to blame you, but Zhuang's defensive ability is indeed very good, not even inferior to some NBA players. So when facing him, you need to play smarter .”

Napier lowered his head and listened to the coach's instructions: "Use your teammates' screens and pick-and-rolls more. When one-on-one doesn't work, you have to use tactics to find mismatch opportunities. In many games in the past, you were not always like this. Did you do it? Why did you forget it today?"

After hearing this last sentence, Napier finally came to his senses and raised his head: "Coach, I'm sorry, I was wrong."

The head coach nodded happily and encouraged: "You have to adjust. You are our scoring leader and our strongest weapon."

Napier nodded heavily, his eyes regained their brightness.

......

After a while.

When the timeout ended and both sides returned to the court, they both conducted personnel rotations. The University of Connecticut replaced guard Beau Atlet and replaced him with a substitute.

The main reason is that Boatright is too short, only 182cm. Having a "short" player like Napier in the team is already a problem. If the two of them are together, they will face UCLA's Zhuang Yu + Powell's back line. Suffered a loss.

UCLA replaced Parker and replaced him with Lamb to further increase the height of the inside line.

As for quick counterattacks, don't count on inside players.

As soon as he returned to the court, Napier found an opportunity with the help of tactical cooperation. After getting rid of Zhuang Yu, he singled out Anderson. Anderson was tall enough, but a little slower, and was passed by Napier. Then Napier hit a layup.

"nice shot."

"Napier finally scored."

In the audience, UConn fans cheered.

Here, Anderson frowned slightly and looked at Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu narrowed his eyes and said: "It seems that the opponent has adjusted. It doesn't matter. You can fight as you should. Napier leaves it to me."

Anderson immediately felt relieved.

......

UCLA offense.

Zhuang Yu came to the frontcourt, signaled his teammates to pull away, and then singled out Napier, but someone from the other side soon came up to help defend.

This is also one of the adjustments for UConn.

When Napier faced Zhuang Yu, he suffered not only offensively but also defensively, so not only did he have to be smarter on the offensive end, he also had to make changes on the defensive end.

"really."

Zhuang Yu was not surprised at all. He passed the ball to Anderson, then started running, circled inside and came to the three-point line to catch the ball.

At this time, Napier was blocked by Lamb and could not keep up. University of Connecticut power forward Giff rushed towards Zhuang Yu, fearing Zhuang Yu's three-pointer, and flew to block the shot.

However, Zhuang Yu did not shoot, but passed the ball inside to Lamb.

At this moment, Giver pounced on Zhuang Yu and threw away Lamb. The person guarding Lamb was Napier. How could he, a 183cm small defender, guard Lamb in the low post?
