Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Jiang Xue's arrival made Qin Hao's life a little more colorful. He was no longer on the line at three o'clock every day, either in the arena or in the classroom.

When not training, he would accompany Jiang Xue to read books on the school lawn and bask in the sun. The two were like a pair of golden boys and girls, and they could attract a lot of envious, jealous and hateful eyes wherever they went.

It is a little regrettable that Qin Hao's fantasy of living together outside the school has not been realized.

In the end, Jiang Xue chose the dormitory, but Qin Hao specially found a school teacher and assigned her a dormitory between two people. The roommate was still Chinese.

This made Jiang Xue very satisfied, and rewarded Qin Hao with a sweet kiss.

Coming to the United States, Jiang Xue can finally let go of herself without any annoying old brothers beside her.

Entering September, freshmen entered the school, and new players from the Orange team came to report one after another. There were three people in total, one center and two forwards.

This was specially selected by Coach Fox. The team is not short of defenders. Qin Hao and Felton are the starting lineup, and Ed and White are the substitutes. It is enough.

The three new teammates, the center's name is Holman, is a white guy, 208cm tall, has a soft hand, and has good skills, but he is a little thin, but his bounce and wingspan are excellent.

That's why Coach Fox chose him, to use him to protect the rebound.

One of the two forwards is Josh, 197cm tall, black, with good physical fitness, strong muscles, good at hitting the basket, and good scoring ability.

The other is called Tucker, who is also a black player. He is 201cm tall, has excellent physical fitness, and has a good wingspan. He is good at defense, but he also has the ability to handle the ball. He can hold the ball and hit the basket. The ball ability, the disadvantage is the general shooting ability, whether it is a three-pointer or a two-pointer is not stable enough.

The first thing these three did when they came to the team was to have a good relationship with Qin Hao and Butler.

Of course, Qin Hao and Butler would not exclude newcomers like Holbert and the others, and enthusiastically accepted the three new teammates.

......

A month later, the preseason starts.

Qin Hao and Butler didn't play much time in the preseason this time, because it was not necessary, and they were there to practice tactics.

Holbert and Cole graduated, and the team's lineup also needed to be adjusted. Coach Fox put forward Greg into the starting lineup and became the starting small forward, still playing the "run-and-gun tactics". Jefferson and Butler were in charge of the inside line. Qin Hao and Felton are in charge of the outside line.

In several preseason games, Coach Fox gave the three rookies a lot of opportunities, especially Tucker, who averaged 20 minutes per game.

"It seems that the coach attaches great importance to Tucker." Butler said with a smile.

A preseason game was going on, Tucker was on the court, but Qin Hao and Butler didn't play after the first half, sitting on the sidelines drinking Gatorade and chatting.

"Blind people can see it." Qin Hao rolled his eyes, "Is this something unclear? But I think the coach's expectations for Tucker are still higher than your expectations."

"Oh?" Butler raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

Qin Hao looked at the court, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I think the coach may want Tucker to start."

What?

Butler was taken aback, scratched his head and whispered: "Impossible? A freshman rookie, and although Tucker is talented, he is not particularly good. His shooting is not stable enough, and he does not have many scoring methods. , as far as defense is okay. In terms of strength, he is not as good as Ed, how could he be allowed to start?"

Qin Hao shook his head and asked back: "It stands to reason that Ed's ability can already be used as a starter, so why do you think he has always been a substitute?"

"This..." Butler frowned and pondered for a moment before saying: "You mean, the coach will keep Ed on the bench out of consideration for the overall situation, while Tucker may be put on the starting lineup. ?"

Qin Hao smiled without saying a word.

Anyway, he thinks so. The team is still playing "run-and-gun tactics". He and Felton, as well as Butler and Jefferson, these four positions will not change. If they change, they will only be small forwards. Location. And Greg is actually not the most suitable person for "running and shooting". His speed is average, and although he has the ability to score, he is complex but not refined. The most important point is that his defensive ability is weak.

From last season's loss, Qin Hao can see that the team needs to improve their defense. He doesn't believe that Coach Fox can't see this.

So, on the premise of maintaining the "run-and-gun tactics", how to improve defense?

The four points of Qin Hao, Felton, Butler, and Jefferson remain unchanged. It is necessary to use a good defensive player in the position of small forward.

Tucker is 201cm tall, with excellent physical fitness, excellent wingspan, good static conditions, and good defensive awareness. In addition, he also has the ability to handle the ball. This is a quality that Greg does not have, and the "running and shooting" tactics Several players are required to have the ability to handle the ball.

There's no question that Tucker is a better starting small forward than Greg in these respects.

But it is definitely not now. After all, Tucker is only a freshman, and there are still many deficiencies and deficiencies, as well as lack of experience, and it takes time to hone.

Of course, from Qin Hao's point of view, it doesn't really matter who starts and who comes off the bench. If necessary, it's not impossible for him to substitute himself.

A season later, Qin Hao is already familiar with ncaa, he has proven his strength with actions and various honors, and his vision has improved, so he has to look at the overall situation.

As long as it is helpful to the team, can make the team better, and can help the team to hit the ncaa championship, Qin Hao thinks it is all right.

He looked at Ed on the field and said secretly, "I still have to talk to Ed and guide him."

Ed has made great progress over the past year. In terms of personal strength, he can already rank third in the team. Except for Qin Hao and Butler, everyone else is inferior to him.

For the starting position, he naturally has ideas.

It's just that Coach Fox never meant to let him start, and Ed was also very depressed. Qin Hao felt that he still had to enlighten him, because it is very likely that he would not even want to start this season.

At the end of a preseason game, Syracuse University lost to the opponent.

But no one from the Orange team cares about the gains and losses at this time, and they no longer need to care about these details.

It's also Syracuse's last preseason game.

After the game, Qin Hao found Ed, chatted with Ed, and enlightened him. In the end, Eddie expressed his understanding with a depressed expression. Those resentful eyes looked like a girl who had been abandoned at the beginning. Qin Hao looked at him with a chill and kicked Eddie's ass, which made Eddie return to normal.

A few days later, the Big East Conference kicked off, and Syracuse University also ushered in the first regular season game of the 2009-2010 season.
