Vol 2 Chapter 77: ready

In fact, this is not the first time An Luo has encountered North Carolina.
Before the start of the regular season in the division, he played against North Carolina at Pali Stadium. At that time, with a maximum of 15 points behind, the final reversal won. An Luo also put in a three-pointer at the buzzer in the first half.
So for the players, there is no psychological disadvantage in the face of their previous defeats.
In terms of overall strength, they are equally matched. And there is some sense of mutual restraint faintly.
North Carolina's paint zone has a particularly high offensive efficiency, and its defensive weakness happens to be inside. North Carolina's perimeter defense is also relatively poor, and it just happens that the perimeter offense is very strong.
Therefore, this game may be very good-looking. As for the outcome, it depends on who is more stable and who plays better offense.
The atmosphere at the scene was too warm. An Luo felt that his eardrums were about to be noisy by the shouts of the audience! After all, there are nearly 80,000 people. It is impossible to play quietly.
This kind of big scene may only be encountered in naa. It's hard to see on the professional basketball court.
Considering that I have to shoot and score in this environment for the entire game, An Luo is still a little nervous. So he seized the time to practice shooting, first to find that feeling, which is of great significance to the game.
Alex was very excited. They have an American wildness in their bones, and they like this scene very much. Even Holiday, who was relatively calm, dunked several baskets, causing a new round of roars from the audience.
The North Carolina players on the opposite side are similar to An Luo.
They wore the iconic blue jerseys, layups, shots, or dunks, all actively making their state more active. For two evenly matched teams, it is very important who opens the situation first.
Soon, the game will begin.
Alford summoned his players, he has some arrangements that need to be emphasized. At this time, An Luo just finished the last set of three-pointers.
"Guys, North Carolina is a difficult opponent. The last time we were able to move back and win, it was not their real strength. Of course, we are stronger now. But remember, don't underestimate any opponent. Everyone should do their own thing well on the court, keep a high degree of concentration and don't be distracted."
Alford did not directly use the tactics, but first gave his players a wake-up call. He was really afraid that these guys would be too arrogant, and the atmosphere on the scene today was so enthusiastic. It was easy for them to get hot heads, and they would make moves that were not conducive to the game. Therefore, he said very seriously: "I said the ugly thing in front, if anyone has a problem, then his career is over."
An Luo felt that it was necessary. After all, he finally reached the finals, and no one wanted to lose the game. If it is a normal performance, the strength is really not as good as others, then it is excusable. However, it would be a shame to lose the game because of inadequate tactics, poor state, and lack of concentration.
Next, Alford began arranging the game. There is nothing to say on the offensive end, just play to your normal level. Anyway, North Carolina's outside defense is the same.
He mainly emphasized defense. In response to the efficient offense in the North Carolina paint zone, Alford replaced the previous 2-3 zone with a 3-2 zone. He adjusted Alex's position inward, but Holiday and Anlo were still on the outside. In this way, the space on the inside line is greatly reduced, and the defense on the outside line is also retained to a certain extent.
Alford has always been a more cautious person.
Of course, Roy Williams on the other side of the field also knows his weaknesses. In fact, he is more difficult than Alford. Alford dared to let his shots from beyond the three-point line, after all, scoring outside is more difficult than inside. But he didn't dare to release the inside line, he knew how lethal the inside attack was opened.
Therefore, he chose to pinch An Luo, although he is bound to defend another outside player, but after all, his shooting percentage is not as abnormal as An Luo. Try to limit it as much as possible with the University of Oklahoma. Buddy Hild disappeared during the game under the guard of Anlow and Alex, resulting in a serious shortage of Oklahoma's offensive firepower. Finally led the team to become the background board with the biggest difference in Naa history.
How similar it is now to Oklahoma! Without An Luo, who averaged 30 points per game, the offensive end would also collapse. The reason they lost at Pali Stadium in December last year was because they didn't pay much attention to Anlo and they were finally reversed. This time, the University of North Carolina will certainly not make the same mistake again.
Although the coaches of both sides arranged very meticulously, it was the players that affected the game. The coach is responsible for finding opportunities for the players to shoot, and how to shoot the ball is the player's business.
When both sides are actively preparing, the three commentators are also analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the two teams. As former professional players, but also professional players with relatively high achievements, their professionalism is beyond doubt. More of their discussion topics have been put on Anluo. After all, he is the only one among the rookies who have been given high hopes this year!
"Ann has too much influence for ~EbookFREE.me~. As long as he catches the ball, his opponent will be nervous. You don't know where he will shoot, let alone when he will shoot. But you are sure Knowing that he can score every goal. As far as three-pointers are concerned, Ann's level has almost surpassed all basketball players. I am afraid that only the two guys from Golden State can be compared. Of course, he should be in this game. It will be miserable to be targeted, and it depends on whether Ann can handle it. If he can perform well under this kind of targeting, Na Ann’s future achievements will definitely not be lower than mine; A pure pitcher."
Reggie Miller, as an old senior, naturally wanted to praise his junior at this time. What he said was a bit exaggerated, but it still made sense.
Barkley, who is next to him, disagrees. He has never waited to see Curry, so he does not wait to see this type of player.
"I think Ann can only be considered lucky. He has not encountered too strong defense so far. His dominance is still relatively lacking. Of course, this may not be a problem in Naa. But once you get to the NBA, it won't work! The current NBA defense has dropped sharply, but I am still not optimistic about Ann's development."
Just like Yao Ming was not optimistic at the beginning, but this time he did not bet. Sir Charles will not fall twice in one place!
