Zhang Weiping and Sun Yiping were in the commentary box to explain the game.
This time, in order to show its importance to CCTV, the NCAA arranged the best broadcast seats, which also gave the two teachers a good perspective to watch the game.
Teacher Sun Yiping introduced the players of both teams as usual at the beginning, and finally introduced Lu Yu and said: "You can see that the No. 10 player of the Gonzaga Bulldogs wearing a white jersey is our 19-year-old young player Lu from China.
Yu, last year Mr. Zhang Weiping and I explained a game between Gonzaga and the National Youth Team. Lu Yu performed well. From that game on, many fans began to pay attention to Lu Yu. Unexpectedly, half a year later, Lu Yu
Yu led Gonzaga to the NCAA Final Four, becoming the first Chinese player to appear in the NCAA Final Four."
"Yeah, I watched many videos of Lu Yu's previous games, and he played very reasonably."
Zhang Weiping added: "Lu Yu was not in a hurry when facing Duke University's No. 31 Battier's defense. He was observing the opponent's defensive formation. He is really a stable player. Players like him will look for absolute opportunities.
He took a shot, he...he took a shot, but unfortunately the ball hit the front of the basket and didn't go in..."
"..." Sun Yiping.
Duke counterattacked, and the Gonzaga Bulldogs quickly defended, causing Duke to lose the fast break opportunity and the basketball was handed over to Jay Williams.
"You can take a look at Gonzaga's defensive formation, which is a typical one-to-one defensive position. Lu Yu is the one-to-one defense. He follows Jay Williams closely, almost inseparable. Jay
Williams' breakthrough was blocked and he could only choose to pass." Sun Yiping took a look at the data and said: "Jay Williams, a freshman at Duke University, averaged 21.6 points, 3.3 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game this season.
, is the core of Duke University’s offense, no wonder Lu Yu guards him tightly.”
"The defensive strategy of the Gonzaga Bulldogs is very clear. It is to strangle Jay Williams, force him to take the ball, and then shrink the zone defense to let others shoot. It doesn't matter if you shoot, because you can't kill someone with a shot," Zhang Weiping said with a smile.
.
Jay Williams didn't have a good chance. He was strangled and went to the bottom corner, changing positions with Duhong in the bottom corner.
Du Hong reached the top arc with the ball, and Lu Yu frowned slightly.
Playing that tactic again?
Sure enough, after the fake screen, Battier had an opportunity and shot directly from outside the three-point line.
"Oh, you really dare to shoot. The players of the Gonzaga Bulldogs have tried their best to pounce, but they are still a step too late." Before Zhang Weiping could finish his words, the basketball fell into the net with a swish: "Ouch, No. 31 on the other side.
His three-point shot can kill someone..."
"..." Sun Yiping.
Dan Dickau dribbled the ball past half-court and wanted to hand it to Lu Yu. At this time, Lu Yu was fighting with Battier and there was no chance to catch the ball. Dan Dickau accelerated the breakthrough and when the opponent's formation shrank,
Setsuna gave the ball to Blake Stepp on the outside.
When Blake Stepp got the ball, although all the players were running around, they intentionally or unintentionally opened up the space on the court.
Jay Williams is shorter than Blake Stepp.
Blake Stepp put his back against the opponent, sat inside twice in a row, and turned over to hit a shot before the opponent's double-team came.
"Yes, yes." Zhang Weiping looked at the shooting arc and shouted: "The NCAA's defense is really tight, much tighter than our CBA."
Duke Blue Devils guard Duhon dribbled the ball past half-court without rushing to break through. He kept looking at the running of his teammates from the corner of his eye, including Battier, Jay Williams, and even Buchanan who was wandering in the elbow area.
Zell didn't even let him go.
Suddenly, Battier used the cover of center Boozer to get rid of Blake Stepp. Casey Green hesitated and did not follow. He was worried that after he went out, his opponent would cause a big fight in the paint.
Chance.
This is how a basketball game is, the situation on the court changes rapidly.
If you want to win, you must constantly form a local situation where more people are fighting against smaller players, small players are fighting big players, or big players are fighting small players. In other words, you must use your own advantages to defeat your opponent's disadvantages.
The basketball was stuffed into Battier's hand like a cannonball. Battier raised his hand to shoot. The moment he took the shot, a white figure pounced on him.
"It's Lu Yu. Lu Yu's defensive judgment is really good. He gave up on Jay Williams who was guarding him and pounced on Battier decisively." Sun Yiping said quickly.
The basketball drew a high arc and fell into the basket with a "swish" sound.
"Tsk, tsk, it's a pity. I can only say that Battier's hand felt great today." Zhang Weiping sighed.
Dan Dickau dribbled the ball across half court. Lu Yu came out to catch the ball with the help of Casey Green's cover. After catching the ball, he lowered his center of gravity and took a step. Battier quickly took a step back. Who knows at this time, Lu Yu directly took a step.
Pull out three points.
"Shua".
The ball goes in!
"Don't tell me, Lu Yu's answer ball is really good." Zhang Weiping said excitedly: "I just shoot, and I can still score, hehe."
He completely forgot about Lu Yu's first three-pointer.
The Washington fans got excited and applauded thunderously. Basketball only looks good when it comes to tit-for-tat.
Lu Chaoyang in front of the TV showed a pleased smile: "You little brat, you did a good job."
After Lu Yu made a three-pointer, there was no celebration. He ran back to the backcourt and started to defend. The basketball was in the hands of Jay Williams again. Williams accelerated the breakthrough and collided with Lu Yu. Lu Yu was knocked back.
In two steps, Williams directly moved forward and pressed his shoulders, breaking through Lu Yu's side and scoring a layup.
"Jay Williams' breakthrough is really tough. What we often call aggressive means playing aggressively. He did this very well." Zhang Weiping sighed.
Jay Williams is very fast, and Lu Yu can barely keep up when accelerating. Even if his defensive toughness is sufficient, his lack of explosive power will still leave a gap when facing top speed players.
It doesn't matter, as long as the Thunder Breathing Technique improves, you can catch up sooner or later.
…
Lu Yu broke through directly with the help of Blake's cover. Jay Williams, who had switched to defense, was close to Lu Yu's body. At this time, Lu Yu made an emergency stop and passed the ball to Dan Dickau on the outside. At the same time, he blocked Du with his body.
Hong and Dan Dickau made a three-pointer and hit.
Lu Yu played the ball very smartly. His accelerated breakthrough was fake, but the direction of his breakthrough crossed with the direction of Dan Dickau's movement. At the moment when Du Hong hesitated whether to flank or pursue Dan Dickau, Lu Yu
Yu passed the ball out and blocked Du Hong.
…
Boozer finally got the ball inside, put the ball on his shoulder and hit a mid-range shot.
Casey Green has tried his best to block shots.
But Boozer is like carrying a rocket launcher. Even if Casey Green's arms are ten centimeters longer, he won't be able to hit him, right?
…
The basketball is once again in Lu Yu's hands. Most of Gonzaga's balls are in Lu Yu's hands. As long as the ball is in his hands, the probability of success will be much higher.
Battier's defense was already very tight. He tried three times in a row but failed to steal the ball from Lu Yu, so he decisively gave up the opportunity to steal the ball.
Lu Yu did not use a close approach to break through the opponent. Instead, after a pick-and-roll with Casey Green, he threw away Battier and rushed to Duke's inside line. Boozer stepped in, covering Lu Yu like a wall.
Lu Yu passed the ball with a flick.
Battier has been waiting for him to pass the ball for a long time. He has already seen that Gonzaga's tactic is pick-and-roll.
After being blocked, he stayed next to Casey Green and waited for Lu Yu to pass the ball. As soon as Lu Yu passed the ball, he reached out to steal it.
He's about to steal the ball.
But...the basketball was not passed to Casey Green standing in the corner, but to Zach Goode from the other side.
Zach Goode caught the ball and scored in a three-step layup.
The lazy man in the audience's eyes lit up, as if he had woken up: "Hey, Kobe, why do I feel like he plays more like a point guard?"
"It's a bit like... Stockton, isn't it?"
It turns out that these two people are Kobe and McGrady.
