Chapter 34 The worst result is nothing more than hurting each other!
On the court, Duke attacks.
By always beating JJ Redick, he obviously fell into the trap of Wake Forest University.
Duke University is not a team with one star. If it really belongs to one person, it can only be Coach K. In the future, the Cameron Arena will also be named after Coach K...
Daniel Ewing chose to hoist the basketball to the basket, and Wake Forest University simply let Su Bei stare at JJ Redick from the outside, while the others shrank and sealed the penalty area.
Sheldon Williams catches the ball. He has outstanding physical talent, but he has not practiced mid-range shooting. He specializes in offense and defense in the paint area.
Offensively, outside the paint area, his offense was zero. The only thing he could do was to use his weight advantage to attack, and O'Neal did that too.
The two of them used the same move, but the difference was that O'Neal had no solution with this move. One against three, he was still invincible.
Sheldon Williams can only hit one, and the weight can't be too heavy.
Now Wake Forest is trying to block people in the penalty area. He has no space to attack and can't attack him, so he has to choose to pass the ball.
Lee Melchio covered for JJ Redick, Kyrie Arthur and Su Bei immediately switched defenses, and the basketball returned to Daniel Ewing's hands. Seeing that there was not much offensive time, he chose to single out Chris Paul, broke into the inside, and relied on his height
Advantage, emergency stop jump shot...
Bang-dang——!
Daniel Ewing and his senior Chris Duhon are in a defensive and offensive configuration.
Now that Duhon has brought his offensive talents to the NBA, Ewing's defensive talents can only stay in the NCAA. There is no way to share the offensive pressure with JJ Redick.
Shafri Randolph's offense is useless, Sheldon Williams only knows how to drill, Daniel Ewing only knows how to defend, Leo Chiao is a second-generation star with unreliable strength, JJ Redick only attacks without passing...
…
I have to say that Coach K is also a talented person.
Playing "correct basketball" with Larry Brown, the difference is that one is the main offense and the other is the main defense.
The players under him have a very single function, almost all have one trick, or at most three... they are all parts of the team's machine.
If these "parts" are used very skillfully, "team" basketball can often perform magically.
If it's not magical, it's just because there's something wrong with the "parts".
"Eric Williams picked off the rebound, Chris Paul dribbled the ball forward, Su Bei moved without the ball, used the screen to get into the open space, and received Chris Paul's pass at 75 degrees from the left three-point line.
A split-ball jump shot..."
Swish——!
Su Bei's three-pointer returned.
11 to 7!!
Next, Duke University's offense will be launched by JJ Redick's off-ball running system.
Subei consumes a lot of physical energy, and often can't stand JJ Redick.
The good ones in Hong Kong only drew, but what happened at Duke University was a group fight, and Su Bei was the only one who could watch it.
Fortunately, the worst result is nothing more than hurting each other.
Su Bei is just a role player, while JJ Redick is the core player.
Su Bei and JJ Redick compete in off-ball skills, which consumes a lot of physical energy, but JJ Redick's physical energy consumption will only be greater.
Just 10 minutes into the first half, JJ Redick felt very tired. He felt even more tired than in previous games after playing 30 minutes.
On both offense and defense, Wake Forest University's tactics against JJ Redick worked well.
"JJ Redick cut through the air, ran in reverse, and looked for teammates to cover. Su Bei followed closely...
JJ Redick received the basketball, and in addition to Su Bei, the nearby Kyrie Arthur and Eric Williams pounced on it.
He voted, he scored..."
"JJ Redick was also very involved in defense and pursued closely. He bypassed the wall and did not let Su Bei escape...Beyond the three-point line, Su Bei and Chris Paul continued to play pick-and-roll tactics."
Su Bei had no chance, so he asked Chris Paul to fight.
It's two against one.
North Jiangsu was only beaten by a group of people, while Wake Forest University only beat JJ Redick on both offense and defense.
Chris Paul took advantage of Su Bei's cover to forcefully break through JJ Redick with the ball, get inside, and challenge from close range.
Swish——!
Two-point hit.
As a tool man, Su Bei continued to mess up Duke's defensive formation without the ball. He took advantage of the chaos and hit when he could. If he couldn't, he used cover tactics and let Chris Paul challenge JJ Redick.
Being singled out by Chris Paul, JJ Redick couldn't stop him at all.
At this time, the advantage of Chris Paul's passing is very crucial here.
JJ Redick's passing is not good. After being flanked, he splits the ball and his teammates can get easy shooting space.
But...he mostly chooses to take action himself.
Chris Paul originally used sudden scoring and flanking tactics. For him, this was the result he wanted to see.
The difference is nothing more than who to break through...
JJ Redick faces the same problems that Nash and Curry will also encounter.
Nash has Marion wipe his ass.
Curry doesn't have to wipe his butt, he is just a primary school student, he just needs to lose two points on defense and hit three points on offense every day.
Now JJ Redick has no one to wipe his butt, so he can only spend his days on offense.
Wake Forest University can't hold on, and Duke University can't hold on either.
At the end of the first half, JJ Redick scored 18 points, 1 rebound and 0 assists. Su Bei only had 8 points, 1 assist and 2 rebounds, which was blown away in terms of statistics.
Fortunately, Chris Paul scored 14 points, 5 assists and 2 rebounds, 9 of which came from one-on-one shooting against JJ Reddy.
The score was 43 to 43, and the two sides were evenly matched.
…
Rest for 15 minutes and come back for the second half of the game.
JJ Redick was benched and replaced by freshman Demarcus Nelson, who was also a star player in high school.
Obviously, Duke is preparing to compete with Wake Forest for bench thickness.
Wake Forest University is not a famous basketball school, and the quality of the freshmen it recruits is obviously too different.
Prosser has no choice but to learn from that fat guy D'Antoni and play the main team.
On the court, Duke attacks.
Demarcus Nelson just came on the court and immediately started a pick-and-roll tactic with Shafri Randolph, broke into the penalty area, passed the ball to Sheldon Williams for a dunk under the basket, and hit two points.
43 to 45!!
DeMarcus Nelson is a combo guard. Before Su Bei could adapt to his playing rhythm, he broke into the penalty area and made Duke's offense successful.
On the court, Wake Forest attacks.
Chris Paul controlled the ball to the frontcourt. Without JJ Redick to mark him, Su Bei made a reverse run and easily got rid of DeMarcus Nelson's defense. He received a timely pass from Chris Paul and hit a two-point jump shot from close range.
45 to 45!!
Su Bei feels that his off-ball skills are on the verge of breakthrough.
Next, the situation on the court suddenly changed. Chris Paul grabbed the basketball from Daniel Ewing, counterattacked and dunked for two points.
Subsequently, Shafri Randolph fouled on a screening action and gave Wake Forest the ball.
Chris Paul broke through, scored and assisted Eric Williams to score 2-1 at the basket.
Seeing DeMarcus Nelson challenge Jiangsu Bei one-on-one, he wanted to respond to the ball, but against the defense, he shot a three-pointer without touching the ball.
Coach K could only call a timeout, rearrange the tactics, and send JJ Redick back to the field.
Wake Forest leads by 5 points and still has the offensive ball.
