()(ps: I can’t afford to be slow to update, and readers can’t afford to be hurt either. So, I decided to work hard recently to prepare for the explosion. The updates may be slower, but at least once a day, at noon. Then I will try to save one every day.
Chapter, if I write more, I will add more! About half a month after the manuscript was saved, it continued to explode. I hope you will support it)
After Du Hong came to the court, Duke University had a dual point guard formation. Both he and Chen Jie could control the ball, and both could turn into shooting guards at any time to attack.
However, in comparison, Chen Jie's offensive ability is slightly stronger.
This formation was actually used for a period of time when playing against Marquette University in the last game. During the five minutes of rest when Sheldon was a little exhausted. However, in only five minutes, there was no spark between the two.
, produce any chemical reaction.
But it seems that in this game, Du Hong can play with Chen Jie on the court for a long time.
The ball that Chen Jie stole just now was believed to belong to Duke University. After Xiao Hei passed the sideline ball to Chen Jie, Chen Jie passed the ball to Du Hong and let him control the ball.
The meaning was very clear at this moment. At least, Chen Jie wanted to try to attack this ball.
Du Hong, who understood Chen Jie's thoughts, paid attention to Chen Jie's movement when he was in possession of the ball. After Chen Jie used Xiao Hei's screen to create an open space on the right baseline, Du Hong quickly sent the basketball in his hand.
After passing by, Chen Jie didn't hesitate after taking the ball, he opened his hand and made a three-pointer.
Chen Jie's first shot in the entire game came nearly six minutes into the game.
Seeing Chen Jie take action, Xiao Hei and Sai Ya immediately squeezed inside to grab rebounds.
The basketball hit the front edge, hit the backboard and bounced into the basket.
9 to 8, Duke University took the lead for the first time. Chen Jie scored the first point of the game.
After scoring the goal, Chen Jie made a good goal gesture toward Du Hong, who assisted him.
Anthony squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Jie's running figure.
Seeing Anthony's expression, Chen Jie thought to himself, are you going to start the scoring mode? After the opening, you have been passing the ball and using yourself to attract the defense to open up space for singles. Except for the first ball due to the attack time.
You only choose to take action when there is very little left. The rest of the time you have no desire to attack. So, now that you see me scoring, do you also want to attack?
Chen Jie, who smiled slightly, retreated to the backcourt, high-fived Du Hong next to him, and immediately focused on Anthony. He knew that it was impossible for Sheldon to guard him, and he might have to do it at any time.
Assist in defense.
Chen Jie, who guessed that Anthony might be about to attack, did not dare to neglect.
However, unexpectedly, it seems that Anthony's approach is different from what Chen Jie thought.
He still chose to be a passer and organizer rather than an offensive terminator. When the ball came into his hands, he didn't even look for gaps in Duke's defense to break through or shoot. Instead, he immediately passed the ball to a teammate in a better position.
.
It seems that today, he has no desire to attack at all.
Chen Jie was a little curious about this. What on earth was he thinking? Could it be that even playing against Duke University couldn't interest him?
Under the leadership of Anthony, Syracuse University's passing was very smooth. After several transfers, a mid-range shot opportunity appeared in the corner. However, McNamara's shot circled in the basket and then came out.
, after Xiao Hei controlled the rebound, he once again passed the ball to Chen Jie instead of Du Hong. It seemed that Chen Jie was the only teammate he trusted on the court.
Regarding Xiao Hei's performance, Chen Jie smiled slightly. Now he seems to be dependent on himself. No matter whether he gets the ball in the frontcourt or the backcourt, he will always find himself first.
After Chen Jie got the ball, he dribbled the ball across half court. Seeing that Anthony didn't seem to have any desire to attack, Chen Jie seemed to be a little uninterested.
In fact, he already had the intention to fight with Anthony because of what he said before the game, but now Anthony has been very calm, which makes Chen Jie a little confused.
Although this game is positioned by the league as a confrontation between two freshmen, it is actually just to add the following gimmicks to the game. After all, the game is still a matter between the two teams.
However, Chen Jie felt that he cared about this statement in his heart. He was very competitive, so he didn't want to lose to Anthony. Especially after Anthony came over and said those words to him before the game, Chen Jie hoped to be able to win on the court.
Compete with Anthony.
Now seeing that Anthony has no hope of attacking, Chen Jie really has lost his fighting spirit.
The game went on somewhat calmly with the ace players of both teams thinking like this.
In the first half of the game, the atmosphere never reached its climax. When the 20-minute clock ran out, Syracuse University led Duke University by 4 points, 34 to 30.
Anthony only scored two points on the jump shot, while Chen Jie only scored one three-pointer.
It's a very strange situation. The star players of both sides, the number one star, seem to be acting very negatively.
Returning to the locker room at midfield, Old K glanced at Chen Jie and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he sighed and did not speak.
In fact, there were no major problems in the first half. Duke University's overall performance was quite satisfactory. Even though Chen Jie was a little passive on offense, he still worked very hard on the defensive end and made considerable contributions in organizing the offense.
This made Old K, who wanted to ask Chen Jie why he didn't take the initiative to step up and score, finally didn't speak.
In his opinion, maybe Chen Jie really wants to compete with Anthony. It is normal for young players to have such a mentality.
But why didn't the opponent's Carmelo Anthony perform well in the first half?
Lao K is also confused about this issue.
Maybe in the second half, after Carmelo Anthony starts attacking, Chen Jie can also open up.
Old K thinks so.
In fact, Chen Jie had the same idea in his heart. He had been preparing to attack from the beginning. He only changed his mind after seeing Anthony's performance. He didn't know what Anthony was planning, so he deliberately suppressed his offensive desire.
Chen Jie, who was thinking about when Anthony would be at full strength and he would start scoring, guessed that he might be conserving his energy to prepare for a critical moment before giving his best performance.
As everyone knows, both of them actually thought wrong.
Chen Jie forgot that there is an old saying in China: once you gain strength, it will weaken again, and then you will be exhausted.
Ever since he said those words to Chen Jie before the game, Carmelo Anthony knew that Chen Jie must be holding back his anger in front of him during the game.
Anthony, who knew that he might not have the upper hand against Chen Jie at this time, simply did not attack in the first half. When Chen Jie discovered his abnormality, he would have some thoughts in his heart, and maybe he would conserve his strength.
Well, in the second half, after he stood up and Chen Jie wanted to compete with him, the anger was gone first.
In this case, you will have the confidence to defeat him.
Now it seems that everything is going according to Anthony's plan.
