Vol 2 Chapter 40: There is nothing to parry

　　 Anluo left for Beijing on the seventh day of the lunar day. Actually it doesn't need to be so early, but this day is different.
　　 After saying goodbye to Daddy An, An Luo drove to the airport alone, and then to Beijing. After staying at home for a few days, An Luo did not want to leave! It can be seen that Father Ann is still a little bit sad. But he can't help it. When the child grows up, he will always run out.
　　 The day before Anluo was going to Beijing to meet Tang Xiaoru, it was February 13th. The away game against the University of Arizona began.
　　 Actually, this game is just a very ordinary game in this season. But because of An Luo's relationship, because of his previous super performance, this game has become a little different.
　　 I have to admit that the Arizona Wildcats are a very strong team. The players in the team are the best among their peers, and the level of the coaching team is also above the standard. The last time the two sides played against each other at Pali Stadium, if it weren't for Anluo's explosion in the second half, they would have lost to each other.
　　 And this time, it was at their home court. And An Luo missed the game due to illness.
Yes! Alford did not let outsiders know the real reason for Anro's absence. He just put An Luo's name on the watch list, the cause of which was a bad cold.
　　 Now, many people are paying attention to An Luo, and this number is still increasing. Especially after his crazy performance of 30+ in two consecutive games, this number has increased even faster.
　　 But in this game, An Luo's absence made everyone very disappointed. Disappointed, everyone is also speculating and discussing: Is it a strong team? Everyone is eager to know whether without An Luo, can they continue to maintain their winning streak.
　　 Therefore, this game against the University of Arizona can reflect a lot of problems.
　　 Alford brought Bryce Alford to the starting second position in this game. It's not that he was acting for his own sake and wanted to help his son. But among the substitute players, only Bryce has the highest and most stable three-pointer, which has been maintained at around 35%. He didn't want to disrupt the rhythm of the entire team, so he found someone with similar technical characteristics to replace An Luo's role in the starting lineup.
　　 In fact, when Anluo played with several other starters, his role was not prominent in scoring, but mainly played as a drag. Alford knew how his son was capable, but he couldn't help it. Putting Bryce on the court to make room for Holiday and Prince, and occasionally shoot two three-pointers, this should be fine!
　　 It's a pity that the restraining power on the court, after all, requires a strong scoring ability to have.
　　 In terms of scoring, Bryce is more than one grade worse than An Luo, especially for scoring outside the three-point line. When the team had problems on the offensive end, he tried to exert force on the outside, but the effect was not good. The University of Arizona discovered this problem and did not specifically address it. Naturally, there will be no containment effect!
　　 An Luo's absence, on the surface, is that there is a problem with the team's offense.
　　 Alford has pushed the offensive line in. Alex, Holiday and Prince are all players who can score from mid-range and hit the basket. In this game, they behaved very positively, constantly creating damage to the University of Arizona, and constantly scoring through their personal abilities.
　　 But the other party is not bad. Especially their backcourt general Gabe York, the impact is too strong! I saw it last time at Pali Stadium. He can always respond immediately after a player scores. Three points, middle distance, layup...
　　 Throughout the first half, they played in the opponent's rhythm. Although the score has not been opened too much, but from the perspective of the situation, there is no hope of winning.
　　 During the break, Alford did not scold his players. He can see very clearly from the sidelines, these players have performed very well. They have done everything within their capabilities. No matter whether it is tactics or personal ability, there is no problem, and I can no longer ask for more!
　　 At this time everyone started to miss An Luo! A stable scoring point is too important for the entire system. Moreover, An Luo's value is not only on the offensive end! And his defense.
　　 In the first half, the reason why he has been passive is not just a problem on the offensive end. An Luo's single-defense ability is an important part of the entire defensive system. Now that Anlo is absent, it's like opening a hole in that net. Arizona players can break Bryce's defense without too much effort. This puts the players in a dilemma ~EbookFREE.me~ If you make up or not, you will miss out. Very tired! Especially Alex and Holiday, who were originally the core forces in the defensive system, now they have to take on more heavy work.
　　 The players are a little frustrated. They have always felt that they are very good, but now they realize that it doesn't seem to be that way. When An Luo is on the court, his presence is actually very low. This makes them often have the illusion that An Luo is nothing more than a few three-pointers! There is no difficulty at all, just catch the ball and shoot, scoring is very easy.
　　 But now they understand that in a game, scoring is never a simple matter.
　　 Alford is still trying to do what he should do. He is analyzing the various problems that have occurred in this game for the players, and then telling them how to solve them. He could see that these guys were a bit lost, and no one wanted to lose. However, he can only try to comfort his players and let them understand that winning or losing is the most normal thing in a basketball game. As for the effect, it is unknown.
　　 In the second half, Alford did not give up the game. He tried to make some adjustments, but the final results were not very good. In fact, he couldn't help it. Make bricks without straw! After all, one core player is missing and the entire system cannot be played.
　　 The University of Arizona didn't want to go on like this anymore. They finally showed their sharp fangs in the second half, tearing them to pieces. They further strengthened their defensive strength, forcing players to make mistakes and then quickly counterattack.
　　 In the end, he had his second defeat of the season at the University of Arizona. And it was a terrible loss! It is almost impossible to resist.
