Chapter 59 The role of the small forward

During the timeout, McKillop called the Wildcats players together.

"Both of us are familiar with each other's playing styles. If we want to break through the team's defense, we must use determined shots," said McKillop.

Then, he turned to Su Yi, "Su, do you still remember the role I asked you to play small forward?"

Su Yi: "Put the basketball into the opposite basket."

McKillop nodded and said: "Just do it, show your confidence, they can't stop us!"

The whistle sounded to start the game.

"come on."

Several pairs of big hands were folded together.

Players from both sides entered the court, and small forward Kyle Singler continued to defend Su Yi alone.

At the beginning of the game, both sides continued to test, and the defensive intensity did not drop at all.

The score alternately rises.

He has a longer wingspan and is more experienced in defense. He will not easily take fake moves. In the first quarter, Su Yi has already figured out his characteristics.

This man is a top defensive player. If you want to score in front of him and show momentum, you have to be tough.

Su Yi positioned himself in the left corner and leaned hard against him with his back. Curry passed the ball over.

Kyle Singler entangled Su Yi and used his long arms to interfere with Su Yi's ball control.

Su Yi did not choose to break through, but hit him hard twice, then turned over and leaned back to shoot from mid-range.

The basketball passed through Kyle Singler's fingertips and hit the ball beautifully.

Su Yi's iron-blooded mid-range shot helped the Wildcats continue to maintain the lead.

The ball was transferred to the Blue Devils. After using the screen to get rid of Curry, Gerald Henderson ran without the ball to receive the basketball and hit a key three-pointer.

Wildcats 23:22 Blue Devils.

Everyone on the Blue Devils had a basket, relying on the same excellent shooting to always hold on to the score.

Su Yi held the ball from the outside, faced small forward Kyle Singler, and signaled the inside players to pull away.

After making several fake moves in a row, he used a change of direction to get rid of Kyle Singler and get to the basket.

Facing Su Yi who was already starting at a fast pace, center Brian Zobek could only choose to force a foul and send Su Yi to the free throw line.

Su Yi's game was hot and he hit two free throws, widening the point difference to three points again.

The Blue Devils attack, and their players constantly use screens to find every opportunity to fall open and take shots.

As for the Wildcats, Curry contained the opponent's defensive firepower from the outside.

Su Yi serves as the main attacking point, looking for all singles opportunities.

Shooting guard Gerald Henderson and small forward Kyle Singler worked together to defend Su Yi from the high post.

Su Yi observed their positions and made several cross steps.

After all, he has a ball-handling ability of over 80%. Facing such a flexible big man, the two people on the opposite side were caught off guard.

Slightly shifting their center of gravity, Su Yi took off instantly, using his speed advantage to tear apart the two people's defenses.

Just as the two were about to return to defense, Su Yi suddenly passed the basketball to Curry outside the three-point line.

Curry raised the knife and dropped it, hitting the net with a three-pointer.

Director Zhang: "It's reasonable! This ball is played reasonably! You will know it as soon as you take the shot!"

The two didn't make their first "Suku connection" until the second quarter. I have to admit that Coach K, an old fox, completely understood the Wildcats' tactics.

Duke University is also a famous basketball school with a tradition of defense. If it wants to break through their layers of blockade, it can only rely on Curry's organizational skills and exquisite awareness, as well as Su Yi's personal ability.

However, after switching offense, big center Brian Zoubek suddenly rose to a high position.

Received the basketball at the free throw line and prepared for a mid-range shot.

Ben Arison was caught off guard and rushed forward to block the shot.

However, this 2.16 meter big man did something like "Zhang Fei eats bean sprouts" and passed the ball to the baseline with a flick of his wrist.

Only then did Ben Arison realize that he had fallen into a trap.

Shooting guard Gerald Henderson, who is 1.95 inches tall, caught the basketball on the baseline and won the opportunity to show off in front of a crowd of scouts.

He was not polite at all. He took half a step away from Su Yi, rounded his arms, and jumped up to prepare for a dunk.

But just when he was about to dunk.

The familiar yellow phantom flashed past.

Then...

He's just a big hat who's so bloody that even his relatives won't recognize him!

Su Yi's slap hit the basketball impartially, knocking the little guard to the ground along with him.

The most important thing is that after blocking the shot, Su Yi actually held the basketball in one hand!

In other words, the basketball just now was entirely caused by Su Yi pressing the ball down in the air.

The muscles in Old Coach K's eyes twitched unconsciously: "I thought my team's defense was good enough... But this guy Su Yi is not defending at all. This is clearly robbery..."

He looked at Gerald Henderson lying on the ground in a miserable state, and helplessly spread his hands towards him.

Director Zhang: "What a good hat!"

Yang Yi: "Oh~ Su Yi's efficiency is so high today. His defensive attitude is the most positive."

Facing the waves of cheers, Su Yi could only express his calmness——

As the guardian of the restricted area, he just did what he should do...

And this arrogant guy dared to disturb Tai Sui, and he got what he deserved.

Gerald Henderson looked at Su Yi's domineering eyes and did not dare to look at him at all. He could only secretly express his helplessness: "I just want to show off in front of the scouts. Is it easy? I..."

After switching offense, Curry continued to hit Gerald Henderson from beyond the three-point line.

As a result, the basketball missed the target slightly and bounced high.

Senior center Brian Zoubek jumped up and was about to put the basketball in his arms, but suddenly felt a strong impact and pushed him aside.

Su Yi rushed over like a war horse, and Brian Zobeck reflexively wanted to pull him.

As a result, Su Yi used strong inertia to slam the basketball into the basket, and then did two pull-ups hanging from the basket.

Two penalties are valid, and one penalty is added.

Director Zhang was completely confused: "I didn't expect Xiao Su to be so active in rushing for rebounds. There is a lack of such players in China."

Yang Yi also responded repeatedly: "This reminds me of Rodman... I can't get enough of this kind of fighting. It's so exciting, but players should also protect themselves at this time!"

After Su Yi made a free throw, Duke University requested a timeout.

The Wildcats have gained a 7-point advantage.

"Plan B." Coach K said, and then drew something on the tactical board.

"We still need to maintain a good shooting percentage and the current rhythm. As long as we can perform normally, I believe we will be able to stand on the stage of the finals." Coach McKillop also encouraged everyone.

This was a short pause. None of the players were sitting in their seats. After standing for a while, the game was about to start.

Sure enough, the Blue Devils changed their tactics and replaced small forward Lance Thomas, who is 2.03 meters tall.

He is not responsible for attacking, but is responsible for pestering Su Yi like a dog-skin plaster.

No matter when Su Yi is attacking or defending, this person's goal is very specific, which is to consume him.

In the offensive round, Su Yi moved to the baseline to fight him hand-to-hand. It was obvious that his strength and technical movements had a considerable advantage.

A wonderful Asian dance move left him behind and entered the penalty area.

Just about to dunk...

Lance Thomas hugged Su Yi decisively, which was an obvious foul.

Su Yi stared at this little brother with cold eyes...

As a result, this little guy actually raised his hand to signal to the referee that he had committed a foul. Then he looked at Su Yi and smiled, clearly telling Su Yi that he was here to consume him.

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smile. If a man of steel confronts Su Yi, Su Yi will definitely teach him how to behave.

As a result, Su Yi couldn't fix his wretched smile...

It is clear that it is the arrangement of the old coach K. As long as he gets the ball in a dangerous place, he will decisively kill Su's tactics.

Su Yi was entangled in the opponent's wheel battle, and his physical fitness began to decline a bit, and he made one of two free throws.

The audience found it a bit incredible, because in their view, sending Su Yi to the free throw line was basically equivalent to giving away points.

Coach K, the old fox's tactics really worked.

Su Yi double-teamed him as soon as he got the ball, and fouled decisively as soon as he made a layup.

Coupled with his declining touch, Su Yi only made one of four shots from mid- to long-range.

However, this is also the Wildcats' main offensive method, but this style of play is too exhausting for Su Yi.

McKillop decided to replace Su Yi and bring on Nelms.

Curry took over the offensive banner, but there were shortcomings on the defensive end.

After all, the opponent has a shooting lineup, and after finding the feel, it is not too restrictive.

Su Yi noticed that the timer showed that the game was over with 10 minutes left, Wildcats 59:59 Blue Devils.
