The players of the Gonzaga Bulldogs walked out of the player tunnel. At this time, the cheers of the Duke fans had just subsided. The Gonzaga fans were eagerly waiting for their team to come out to see the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
As soon as the players of the team came out, there were shouts, noises and applause.
Especially when the announcer on the radio stretched his voice and shouted: "Lu... Yu...", the fans in the audience immediately became agitated, and the screams of the fans could be heard wherever Lu Yu walked.
, especially the female fans, who rushed towards Lu Yu with enthusiasm like fire to show off their voluptuous figures. This is unbearable - please let him wake up if he has trouble with yellow urine?
On the court, Shane Battier walked up to Jay Williams and said: "The one who just played is Gonzaga's core player Lu Yu. He is a player with comprehensive skills and a tough style of play. He is also the same player."
It’s an opponent you have to face, but don’t worry, leave the task of defending him to me, and you only need to be responsible for defeating him.”
"Lu Yu..." Jay Williams muttered: "It's a pity that the coach won't let me guard him."
Sean Battier looked at the Gonzaga players not far away with a serious expression: "I advise you not to think about provoking him. He is the best backcourt player I have ever seen in this class."
Boozer interjected from the side: "Better than Jay?"
Shane didn't say anything, but his lack of rebuttal said everything.
Boozer, who was looking forward to his answer, was very considerate and did not ask further, because he had already seen from Battier's expression that Battier was not optimistic about Jay Williams and was only doing it to take Jay Williams' face into account.
That’s all.
Jay Williams secretly clenched his fists, turned around, picked up the ball, and started dribbling it by himself.
"Lu Yu..." His heart was full of dissatisfaction.
In fact, they all misunderstood Battier. It’s not that Battier thought Jay Williams was inferior to Lu Yu.
If we only analyze it from the perspective of college players, even though Jay Williams' defense is slightly worse, his offensive power is not weaker than Lu Yu's. Even in terms of physical fitness, Jay's physical fitness is much better than Lu Yu's.
"But college basketball is college basketball. If you really enter the NBA, Lu Yu can adapt more easily than Jay..."
Jay Williams is only 188 centimeters tall, which is the height of the No. 1 position, but he played the No. 2 position at Duke University. Battier is not sure about Jay, who is used to playing the No. 2 position.
When I go to the NBA and switch to the one position in the future, will I still be able to adapt?
The playing style of the second position, the height of the first position...
In the entire NBA, I am afraid that only Philadelphia's Allen Iverson can switch between the first and second positions with ease.
Lu Yu does not have this problem. Lu Yu's height is visually estimated to be 198 centimeters, which is a standard height for the second position. Even with Lu Yu's organization and linking ability, it is not a problem to play the first position.
Which one is better or worse is clear at a glance.
In the auditorium.
Arenas and his teammates were leisurely preparing to watch the game between Duke and Gonzaga. For them, the winner of this game would meet Arizona in the finals.
Their opponent?
They really didn't take that rookie from Illinois seriously.
Richard Jefferson said from the side: "Albert, who do you think can win between these two teams?"
Arenas frowned slightly and shook his head: "I don't know."
Their team came to watch the game today just to determine who their opponent will be in the next game and to watch their opponent's play style and tactics.
To be honest, Arizona would rather Duke win.
Because they can suppress Duke in almost every position, just like Duke can suppress Gonzaga in most positions now.
Basketball is like this, a very mysterious thing.
Arizona beats Duke, sure.
Duke beats Gonzaga, sure.
However, Gonzaga is sure to beat Arizona.
Arizona is afraid of encountering something like Gonzaga. Although there were tactical adjustments in the loss to Gonzaga in the last game, there is still a high probability that the game will be inextricable if they face it again.
Richard Jefferson was still curious: "So which team do you want to win?"
"...Gonzaga."
Arenas thought for a moment and said, "I still want to win a game from Lu Yu."
Lu Yu, you must win, wait for me in the finals, don't let me down.
On the court, when a whistle blew to urge players from both sides to take the field, Mark Foyo waved his hand: "Let's go."
Gonzaga’s lineup is:
Center: Casey Green
Power Forward: Zach Goode
Small Forward: Blake Stepp
Shooting Guard: Lu Yu
Point Guard: Dan Dickau
Gonzaga University's most conventional lineup combination, but Mark Four believes that the main lineup's style of play this time will definitely be different from before.
Duke’s starting lineup is:
Center: Carlos Boozer
Power Forward: Mike Dunleavy
Small Forward: Shane Battier
Shooting Guard: Jay Williams
Point Guard: Chris Duhon
From the player configuration, we can see why although Duke is known as the Whampoa Military Academy of the NBA, few NBA superstars have come out of it.
Because Lao K pays more attention to the combination and use of players.
For example, Battier under him was a shooter and defensive core. He would never let Battier become the scoring leader like an offensive kaleidoscope. And later Redick was a pure anti-aircraft gun without the ball.
Old K will make the most of what the players are good at in his lineup, and the tactical quality of these players will be very good.
This is why Duke has been able to dominate the NCAA for many years.
But among his players, especially during this period, it is almost difficult to find someone with a domineering temperament.
But as time goes by, or people change, the later Irving, Tatum, and Zion become less and less like the early Duke players.
Standing next to Lu Yu was Jay Williams. He said to Lu Yu with a sneer: "Hey, I've been waiting for you for a long time. I'll let you get down later."
Lu Yu is checking the learning progress of the system panel.
Water breathing method 61%
Thunder Breathing Technique 38%
Breathing of Fire 35%
I don’t know if it is possible for the Thunder Breathing Technique to be improved to above 42% after this game. If there is a chance, strengthen the training progress in the two days after the game and try to improve the Thunder Breathing Technique before the start of the next game.
to 45%
It's a pity that it can't be increased to 50%
Otherwise, you can get the Thunder Breathing Technique reward before the start of the finals, which may be of some help to you in the finals.
"Hey, did you hear me?" Jay Williams found that Lu Yu didn't pay attention to him at all.
Lu Yu glanced at him: "What did you just say?"
Jay Williams was furious: "I said, stay for a while and I will let you get down!"
Lu Yu shrugged indifferently: "Do you all like to show off before the game? This is different for me. I usually show off after winning."
Jay Williams: "???"
The referee blew the whistle and threw the ball into the air.
