For players, especially professional players, it is too difficult to maintain the best competitive form all the time! Injuries and fatigue will affect performance. Not everyone is a monster like Malone or LeBron.
Obviously encountered such a situation, their players were in a bad state in this game. Especially in the first half of the game, it is not like this season.
Alford is not a coach of chicken soup. Besides, the time of the game is so little, it is too late to guide slowly. So he was very direct and rude. Fortunately, these players are used to it.
So, they played much better in the second half of the first half. Especially on the defensive end, they are very tough, which makes Connecticut quite uncomfortable. Although they still didn't play the level of those previous games, they chased the score to less than 5 points and played back and forth with Connecticut.
At the end of the first half, with An Luo's last-minute mid-range hit, the score was chased to 43:45.
This is already not easy! An Luo directly played the entire 20 minutes of the first half. Only he was in the best condition, and the rest of the others were also ineffective in the second half. Alford didn't dare to let him rest.
An Luo's role was vividly reflected in this game. He was in the best state. Of the 43 points in the first half, 25 points were won by An Luo. This was the first time he scored at least 25 points in the half. According to this situation, An Luo will definitely refresh his own scoring record. His original single-game highest score was 38 points.
A player can score 40 points in a game, and it is in the "March Crazy" game, which is an incredible thing. If this player is a Chinese defender, it would be even more incredible.
The audience at Pali Stadium has long been used to Anro's explosive scoring ability, but they are still very excited. They are discussing how many points An Luo will eventually score in this game. From the perspective of the situation, An Luo should still play for a long time in the second half. This means he has enough opportunities to score.
Outside the stadium, the same was upset. Especially in those forums in China, although there is no dedicated platform to broadcast the game, there are still live text broadcasts. Everyone couldn't feel the difficulty of the game between the lines, but Anluo's scoring made these people excited. A Chinese guard who scored 25 points in the second round of the NCAA National Championship. This is amazing!
Even if it has only 25 points, it is enough to be praised by everyone.
Of course An Luo doesn't know this. For him, this game is difficult. This is the hardest game he has ever played since he came to the United States. The feeling of a person carrying an offense on his shoulders is not an easy task.
Fortunately, he played more off the ball in the first half, and did not consume too much physical strength. And if this continues, he should still play more off the ball in the second half. With his special ability, he saves his energy and maintains his attack power.
During the intermission, Alford once again emphasized defense. It is not a big problem that the offense cannot be opened. After all, the state is fluctuating and difficult to control. But the more in this situation, the better the defense.
In fact, in the second half of the first half, the defense gradually found its own form. This is also the key to An Luo's ability to close the score. So in the second half, defense is still the key.
As for the offense, he still has to press on An Luo's shoulder. Alford drew several tactics, all arranged with Anro's last finisher. He really didn't dare to give the ball to these players who were out of shape. This is not a regular season, and the effort of this season will be ruined if you don't pay attention to it.
"Ann, the opponent will definitely guard you in the second half. However, we need you to score. Next, you play the number one position, and I will let everyone cover you. You must seize the opportunity."
"Don't worry, Steve! We will win." An Luo nodded, confident.
"Very good! Aaron, Alex, you two..."
Alford is making arrangements in an orderly manner, and everyone listens carefully. The same is true for Connecticut, who played very well in the first half. If you keep going, making it to the top 16 is not a problem at all.
After the first half of the match, they found that it was not that strong. The ability to bite the score is entirely due to An Luo's super-smart performance alone. This Chinese defender is really outstanding. Therefore, the key to the second half is to limit this point. As long as you do, the game can be won!
The second half started soon.
An Luo, who appeared in the first position, was still doing the second position. Holiday took possession of the ball, thinking of Alford's tactics in his mind, and then greeted his teammates to cover.
Connecticut really strengthened its defense against An Luo. The player with the best perimeter defense closely followed An Luo, and was always stuck between An Luo and the ball holder, interfering with his catch. Other players are always ready to double-team, as long as An Luo receives the ball, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is facing two people.
But this can't prevent An Luo from scoring. He scurried through the crowd, throwing the defender away by covering. Although Connecticut's back defense was not slow, Anlo had already thrown the ball when the opponent came up.
Just like that, a few three-pointers in a row, overtook the score.
Connecticut is very tenacious. After adapting to the defensive intensity of the second half, they played a small 15:8 climax and once again overtook the score. They saw the hope of victory.
But hope is just hope. Maintaining stable output and efficient defense in the following games, especially after An Luo hit a three-pointer against the defender and caused a foul, the team's momentum came up.
This is really a very morale three-pointer. The moment Connecticut caught the ball at Anlo, two players doubled up. But An Luo was very resolute. He started directly, and after a false shot, he withdrew to the three-point line again and took a jump shot. The Connecticut players hurriedly tried to interfere, but they directly threw An Luo down.
After hit, An Luo squeezed his fist and yelled at the audience a few times.
responded to him with shouts of "MVP". At this moment, the entire Pali Stadium belongs to An Luo.
With this ball hit, the score was overtaken once again. Moreover, An Luo has already scored more than 40 points in this field.
This ball seems to have announced its return. Alex and Holiday started to score. Just like the tigers coming out of the basket, the two who suppressed the whole game took turns to attack the inside to succeed. With An Luo's stable output on the perimeter, he caught Connecticut by surprise and took the game straight away.
