Vol 2 Chapter 65: Key 3 points


   During the intermission, Alford was dissatisfied with the players' performance. Especially Holiday, in the second half of the game, even let Asidia Kono ask for what he wanted. The original advantage was ruined on this person.
   Holiday is very wronged!
   In fact, he has guarded well enough. But how can you fight if you can't stand it? But he didn't refute Alford either. After all, if he played well enough, he might be able to guard Acidia Kono.
  Besides, there is a problem in the game, someone must be responsible for it. It's impossible to blame everything on the other side's good performance! If there is a problem, just think of a way to solve the problem. Anyway, there is still half of the game! Everything is too late.
   Alford didn't talk much about offense. Anyway, there is An Luo, if you only score points, you can at least guarantee that you will not lose the wind. Moreover, Villanova's defense is very average, with the skill of these guys, it is not difficult to score.
   He still emphasizes defense. Winning the game is very simple, just score yourself so that your opponent can't score. It sounds funny, but the tone is like this. What we have to do now is how to make the opponent lose points.
   It was not a short period of time in the first half, and the defense was very effective. So during that period, they kept the lead. This gave Alford the determination to stick to the defense. He has studied that Villanova is a team that plays a very good tailwind. If the intensity exceeds their endurance, it will be difficult to find their own form.
   The man-to-man defense in the second half is still not very effective. The linkage between the players is too poor to form a whole. So Alford continued to play zone defense in the second half.
   However, he put Alex at the top of the arc. After all, his defense area is larger. Then he placed Holiday and An Luo at a forty-five degree angle, which was closer to the bottom corner than before. Their mobility can keep up with each other.
   When the opponent's inside mentioned a high pick-and-roll, he asked his players to go directly to the outside player who was holding the ball, neither allowing the shot nor the sudden. As for the big man who comes out to cover his teammates, as long as he doesn't attack at the basket, he doesn't need to be concerned. If he can make a long shot, let him do it and he will recognize it.
   Again, he asked for more physical confrontation when defending. Villanova's players are relatively poor in confrontation. As long as the intensity comes up, they can easily make mistakes. So Alford emphasized to the players over and over again: toughness and confrontation.
   While arranging the arrangements for the second half, Villanova on the other side was doing the same thing.
   Villanova’s head coach Jay Wright is a very experienced head coach. Under his training, Villanova University became the Golden State Warriors in the ncaa. Whether it's the offensive three-point firepower or the defensive end of unlimited defenses, all are imitating the super team under Steve Kerr.
   "Guys, we did a great job in the first half! But it will definitely defend us harder and prevent us from passing the ball easily. So we need to move better, play smarter and be patient."
   He looked at Hart, who was sitting on the side. The young man was affected by the foul in the first half and did not show his strength. In the second half, he didn't want this guy to continue to be restricted by fouls, so Wright had to mention Hart: "Josh, you must grasp the scale of defense. We need you!"
   "I see! Jay." Hart shrugged, helplessly said: "But the whistle is not in my hand!"
"Josh, you know that is also part of the game. You have to control yourself and don't blame others. Otherwise, you can only stay on the bench! I don't think you want to just be off the court and watch your teammates fight on the court. of."
"Ok!"
"Listen, guys! The opponent may return to the zone defense in the second half. We have to attack more from the weak side. Josh, Ryan, Chris, you have to be decisive when you receive the ball. If you have a chance, shoot a three-pointer. Just jump in and pass the ball to your teammates. You can try a few more jumps and you must shoot the ball. Understand?"
   "Understood! Jay!"
   "Daniel, the rebound is up to you. Don't keep wrestling with that guy. This is a basketball court, not a wwe."
   "I don't want to..."
   "Can you do it?" Jay Wright asked directly aloud when he looked at this guy and had to defend himself.
   "No problem, Jay!"
   "Very well, you live what I said. Guys, work hard! The victory belongs to Villanova!"
   "Victory belongs to Villanova!"
   is a slogan of second grade, but it is very useful for these players.
   In the second half, easy side to fight again.
   Villanova faced the zone defense and played very patiently. They can score three or four times in one offense, and they won't take action until they pull the opponent's defense line out of the gap. Although the pace of the offense has dropped, the efficiency has improved a lot.
What makes it even more uncomfortable is that Villanova strengthened the conduction of basketball, and did not make more contact with players who didn’t make contact with them~EbookFREE.me~ At this time, it was like raising an iron fist and hitting cotton. come out. Moreover, the feel of Villanova's perimeter players has recovered. They frequently fired from beyond the three-point line, and the hit rate has remained above 50%.
   Fortunately, An Luo also continued his excellent performance in the previous game. He almost maintained the same rhythm as Villanova's players. Throw in one from the other side, and he can return one immediately.
   In addition to An Luo feeling hot, Tony and Jock are also the reason why Villanova can withstand the crazy attack. The rebounds these guys guarded helped An Luo get more chances.
   In the second half, it was basically Anluo and Villanova's entire perimeter confrontation. The other players seem to be transparent. Although they also performed very well.
   By the last minute, it was 2 points behind. But the ball is in their hands.
   In order to avoid passing mistakes, Holiday passed the basketball to An Luo within half of the game. Let him deal with it, and the others are scattered aside. Villanova was defended by Josh Hart alone without double-teaming.
   Until the attack time was 8 seconds left, An Luo suddenly started. Hart clung to it, but An Luo's rhythm was too good. Accelerate, pause, accelerate again, then step back after an emergency stop, and take a three-point shot.
   Basketball hits steadily, 1 point ahead of Villanova. There are 31 seconds left in the game.
   Pali Stadium suddenly burst into cheers, and An Luo felt that the temperature of the entire arena had risen a lot. They are very excited now, as long as they defend the next round, they will win!
