Vol 2 Chapter 68: UCLA rhythm


   On March 27th, the University of Kansas and the game were played at the Louisville Arena. This is a duel between the No. 1 and No. 2 seeded teams in the Southern Division. Both teams are very strong, and it's clear who will die.
   The atmosphere at the scene was very warm and the audience was too enthusiastic. Compared to Pali Stadium, the arena is much larger, so there will be more spectators watching the ball. The sound is louder and noisier.
   An Luo was shooting the basket with headphones on. He felt a little noisy! When he entered the venue just now, his heart was pounding because of the noise. But today this game may be more difficult, he must calm himself down.
   Whenever encountered such a situation, An Luo will always shoot. When shooting, An Luo felt that he was the calmest. Especially when he shoots three-pointers, this feeling is more obvious. So this is also a way for him to regulate his emotions, which is very effective.
   Holiday, Alex and others are also warming up. They looked a little silent today, and they were all suffocating in their hearts! I want to start the game right away, and then rush over to crush the opponent directly.
   This is all because of the media comments before the game. Basically, no one is optimistic.
   Kansas is a team with no obvious weaknesses. Although they don't have an absolute core like An Luo, their lineup is very reasonable, and both offense and defense are excellent. And they are very resilient. In the previous games, no matter what rhythm the opponent played, it had little impact on them. It always seems to be slow, but the efficiency is very high, always leading unconsciously, and then take advantage of the force to win the game.
   They think Kansas is just a team that restrains this rhythm. Kansas' resilience is enough to withstand crazy offensive firepower. As long as you can't fight, you will eventually be led by Kansas and lose the game.
  Furthermore, Kansas' players are much better than their players. This is a problem. Holiday and Alex have played out of order on the offensive end in two consecutive games! If it weren't for the defense is still tough and able to make a lot of contributions, it may not be here.
   But An Luo is not angry at all. In the high school league, who was optimistic about the ninth middle school? Besides, Kansas is really strong! However, it was far from strong enough that An Luo felt that he could not win.
   An Luo is too confident in himself now! For a three-pointer, confidence is a very important quality. Although An Luo never felt that he was just a pitcher, he did things that ordinary pitchers couldn't do.
   With a whistle from the referee, the game began.
   Alex got the ball for the first offense. This is a good sign. He won the jump ball without losing a game.
   Holiday is still holding the ball, Anlo and Alex are on the left and right sides, Tony guards the basket, and Chok Goroman is near the free throw line, ready to respond.
   However, this time the offense did not succeed. The defensive intensity of Kansas University is very strong. Defending Anlow is their starting second, Derwent Graham, who clings to Anlow, and then constantly interferes with him with all kinds of extremely concealed little moves.
   This kind of defense is annoying, but the effect is not bad! Anyway, An Luo did not participate in the first attack.
   With Alex's mid-range shot, the offensive and defensive momentum of the two sides exchanged. Kansas controlled the ball and moved quickly. But the retreat speed is also very fast.
   Kansas also failed this offense. Derwent Graham's breakthrough layup was interrupted by Anlow and made a direct three-pointer.
   In this way, for up to three minutes after the opening, both sides put their energy on the defense, but nothing on the offensive end.
   In contrast, the defense is better. However, Kansas is more intense and more confrontational, which completely bridges the gap in ability and system.
   Such a game is very ugly!
When Anlo was close to 4 minutes of the game, after Alex’s screen, he caught the ball from the bottom corner and shook the Kansas forward after changing defense. He hit his first three-pointer of the game and broke. The deadlock.
   Then, both sides seemed to be in contact with the seal at the same time, and the offensive end was opened. But the battle was very anxious. The two sides were biting every round, and every point was spelled out.
   An Luo still runs frequently on the court, and he doesn't want to fight him. This will greatly accelerate the consumption of physical strength. But the others are not good, they have been entangled with the players of the University of Kansas. Especially the guy on the inside line, desperately playing with the opponent. Just to be able to take advantage of rebounding.
  Before this game, the vast majority of people were not optimistic and thought they could not fight hard. But as the game progresses, they will find that they don't understand this team even less.
   An Luo and others showed their very tough side. The main forward Perry Iris, who was very eye-catching in the last game against Miami University, played very uncomfortably under Alex's tight defense. Although Derwent Graham is active in the second position~EbookFREE.me~, his offensive efficiency is also very low in the face of Anlow's defense.
   And Anlow is the main attack point, although facing Derwent Graham's defense is a bit uncomfortable. But still played a very strong offense.
   In the 11th minute of the first half, An Luo suddenly shot a cold arrow from one meter away from the three-point line, hitting the second three-pointer of the game. But this is not the point. The point is that immediately after that, he hit 3 consecutive three-pointers outside the three-point line.
   What makes the University of Kansas a headache is that Holiday and Alex also made goals from beyond the three-point line.
   You know, these two have not made three-pointers in two consecutive games. But they have three points, and the shooting percentage is pretty good.
   Holiday and Alex, who finally made a three-pointer, yelled with excitement! In the first two games, their mid-range shots were completely missed. In order to win, they had to defend hard to provide the team with the greatest help.
   Even with the help of the two of them in the end, the team reached the quarterfinals all the way, and those fans did not think highly of them.
   Very aggrieved! But what can I do if I am in a bad state? In this game, their positioning is still based on defense, offensive end to give An Luo more screens to help him out.
   But things are different now! Their front sight is back! Finally can contribute to the offensive end.
   An Luo is also very happy, Holiday and Alex have a strong scoring ability. Now that the feel is restored, they can finally play the familiar rhythm!
