Basketball Myth: Super Guard

On the opposite side, a group of players from the University of Arizona flashed a cold light in their eyes, with a ferocious expression and a menacing look.

The University of Arizona is the No. 12 seed, and it is not difficult to see from the seed ranking that in the view of the selection committee, they are not as strong as Syracuse University.

Therefore, for the University of Arizona, this game does not allow for the slightest fluke, they must show a desperate posture from the beginning, and only in this way can they go down.

"Brothers." Jordan Hill raised his arms and said loudly: "Since we have entered the championship, we should not just go through the motions and lose in the first round. Although Syracuse University is strong, we also Not weak, let us defeat Syracuse University today and prove our strength with our actions."

"Um."

"Beat Syracuse University!"

"Isn't it the No. 5 seed? Who said that the bottom team can't beat the top team. Today we are going to upset and kill Syracuse University."

Several University of Arizona players shouted in unison.

Indeed, there is no shortage of upsets in ncaa tournament play, as examples on the following grams, a few happened last season.

In last season's 64-32 game, the 13th-seeded University of San Diego in the Western Division defeated the 4th-seeded University of Connecticut 70:69, a narrow victory and a big upset.

On the same day, No. 12 seed Western Kentucky in the South Division defeated No. 5 seed Drake University 101-99.

The No. 10-seeded Davidson College defeated No. 7-seeded Gonzaga University 82-76. Davis College star Stephen Curry made 14 of 23 shots, 8 of 11 from 3-point range, and scored 30 in the second half. points, the audience scored 40 points insanely, and one person swept half of the team's points.

So the players at the University of Arizona are high-spirited, because many teams have done the following before, can they not?

"beep......"

The game officially begins.

The starters sent by Syracuse University are still Jefferson, Butler, Qin Hao, Holbert, and Felton.

The starting five of the University of Arizona are center Hill, power forward Reedman, small forward Budinger, shooting guard Harkless, and point guard Collison.

Hill is 208cm tall and has dreadlocks. He is a black guy with great physical fitness. He gives people a fierce feeling. Compared with Jefferson, he has an advantage in height and has an advantage in bouncing, so there is no suspense in the jump ball. Hill won. Slap the ball to the backcourt and Arizona gets the ball.

On the other hand, Syracuse University has already completed the defense. Qin Hao and the others have no expectations for Jefferson's jump ball. They are all used to it.

Defender Collison is a black guy with a height of 190cm. He is lean and lean, and he is very fast. He pushed the ball to the front court in a blink of an eye. Felton stepped forward to meet him, and the two faced off across the three-point line.

Collison first looked at the situation on the court, his eyes stopped on Qin Hao and Butler, and then he asked for a pick-and-roll, but he didn't want to play, but a sudden point. After passing the ball, he moved to the right. Run to the outside of the three-point line in the bottom corner on the right, while waving to the teammate to let the teammate pass the ball to the inside.

The Arizona player moved to the right to make room for the left, and the ball went to Hill in the low post on the left.

The purpose is very clear, is to give Hill a single.

It's no secret that Syracuse University is playing "run-and-gun tactics". The University of Arizona has also studied it. Head coach Bruno has also made some countermeasures. The most important one is to take advantage of his own inside line. Attack his shortness.

Syracuse University naturally understood this, so when he saw Hill's singles, Jefferson obviously couldn't stand it, and Holbert immediately leaned over to help Jefferson in defense.

Seeing that someone came to help defend, Hill gave the ball to the outside, and the transfer ball of the University of Arizona suddenly became faster, seized this opportunity, and gave it to Budinger, who had the best chance, and Budinger raised his hand. Three-point shot, hollow hit.

"nice shot."

"Budinger, Budinger..."

The University of Arizona fans in the audience cheered.

But before they were happy for a few seconds, Syracuse University immediately launched a counterattack. Jefferson served in the backcourt and passed it to Felton. Felton got the ball and did not advance by himself, because Qin Hao, Butler, and Holbert had already rushed to the front court and had already crossed the center line.

He pushes with both hands, sending the ball forward.

In a blink of an eye, the ball had reached the frontcourt. Qin Hao took the ball and dribbled it forward. He was about to pass it to Butler on the other side. The defender Harkless, who had retreated in a hurry, rushed towards Butler subconsciously.

"not good."

Harkless knew he had been fooled as soon as he threw himself out.

Qin Hao didn't pass the ball at all, it was just a fake action. After deceiving Harkless, he retracted the ball, adjusted it, and then jumped up to make a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

The goal is also a three-pointer.

The score became 3:3.

"It's too fast." Harkless sighed, "Syracuse University's attack was too fast, we didn't have time to set up the defense line, and we couldn't defend in place in a hurry."

The attack on Syracuse University took less than 5 seconds, and almost didn't dribble the ball. The ball went from the backcourt to the frontcourt in a blink of an eye, and the players from the University of Arizona didn't have time to retreat. Harkless didn't have time to think if Qin Hao really wanted to pass the ball, so he threw it out subconsciously.

And because Hill, Reedman, and Budinger weren't fast enough, he and Collison were the only ones who returned to defense in time, which was equal to 2 defense and 3 defense.

"You must retreat quickly." Coach Bruno frowned and shouted on the court.

Several players agreed and started to attack.

This time, it was still given to the inside line, but once Syracuse University helped defend, Hill immediately distributed the ball out to Harkless, who received the ball as a three-pointer.

boom!

He didn't make it this time, but Hill pressed Jefferson to get the offensive rebound, and then pushed Jefferson away, jumping up to be a dunk.

Dozens of seconds later, Hill mentioned the online pick-and-roll. Chris used the pick-and-roll to break through, and Hill immediately went inside after blocking. He and Collison had a tacit understanding. The feet bounced up and fell into Hill's hands.

Bang!

Another dunk.

After only a few rounds in the first half, Syracuse University's internal problems have been exposed, and Hill scored 4 points in a row. Jefferson was completely useless against Hill.

"After all, we are still at an absolute disadvantage in the interior." Assistant Coach Harry sighed and looked at Coach Fox, "Coach, do you want to adjust and shrink the defense?"

"Wait and see." Coach Fox pondered: "Defense is not our advantage, our advantage is offense."
