Chapter 36 Shame
The semi-finals are always so exciting. Except for the first half of the quarter, they are on the right track. Westbrook, who has an explosive character, first made a three-pointer from the outside and then broke through Anderson and staged a dunk across the man. He was so excited that he even played back-on singles that he was not good at. Fortunately, he did not succeed this time. Anderson said trash words at the moment when he turned around and leaned back, "You can never be better than Sun."
Westbrook was so angry that he almost burst into his lungs. It was understandable that he was not as good as the No. 1 pick, Ross, and he was not as good as the yellow-skinned monkey with no speed and no height. So he made a decisive blow to the iron with this backward jump shot, and his mentality was severely ups and downs.
Anderson cut off the basketball that jumped over and passed it to Ross who was running forward without saying a word. In order to prevent accidents, he ran away. Once Ross started to accelerate, there was no one to follow him. Darren Collison behind him could only follow him and eat dust. Fortunately, the venue was clean and there was no dust. He could only watch Ross end the attack with a tomahawk dunk.
The game has been played 22:16, with Memphis in front of the game, and it seems to be dominant, but now it has not been finished in the first quarter, and everything is still unknown.
After dunking, Ross seemed to have turned on the scoring mode. Now Sun Yang is not on the court, he is the most important scoring point. Westbrook caught and bites someone like a mad dog, and now he is in a row with Ross again. He also wants to pay back any means by the opponent.
Ross hit a difficult three-pointer through the cover of the outside line. Westbrook also wanted to show his long shot, but he could also make it, and it was half a meter farther than Ross.
Ross used his speed to drift and shoot the board while the center of gravity was unstable. Westbrook also wanted to take the bluff. His long arms were not easy to use, and he scored two points with a low hand.
Both sides were very fast, which was rare in the semi-finals. They scored a high score of 32:26 at the end of the first quarter. Although Westbrook worked very hard, the difference was still at 6 points.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Sun Yang appeared, Ross rested, and Kalipari once again used the tactic of leading the two teams each.
"Haha, you're finally here. I thought you would always be a turtle. Enjoy my ravage later!" Westbrook grinned, looking extremely excited and manic.
Sun Yang glanced at the guy casually with a blank expression on his face. Does that mean I know you? This alone caused Westbrook to be internally injured. He always felt powerless when facing Sun Yang, just like a heavy punch hitting cotton.
"It's interesting. It looks like Westbrook will go crazy again later. To be honest, I like his temperament a little. His skills are easy to make do with, but they still lack aggressiveness." Bill Walton smiled. There is only one in this UCL lineup that can attract him.
"Oh, no, you can't expect everyone to be like you, not caring about the consequences of fame for a moment of pleasure." Reggie Miller quipped. As a junior brother of more than ten years later, Miller knew what ridiculous things Walton had done in college, and even stayed in prison. But to put Walton's own words, who hadn't been young when he was young? Participated in the anti-Vietnam War rally, publicly criticized the President/Nixon and FBI, etc., which is his performance outside the court.
Less gossip, Ucla's ball rights, Westbrook held the ball and talked for a while, chatting endlessly. Then he twisted his body violently and took two steps to the left. Just when everyone thought he was going to shoot or continue to break through, he chose to pass the ball, which is a rare thing.
Lof took the ball and dunked with both hands. He thought he was about to disappear again. After the dunk, he almost burst into tears. He was about to celebrate with Westbrook and found that he had started chatting with Sun Yang again.
"I was really disappointed. I didn't expect that you didn't even dare to shoot after a few minutes. Oh my God, you are so much taller than me, are you still afraid of my block?" Sun Yang sighed as if he understood why he understood. Westbrook was about to explain what he passed a good ball, but Sun Yang waved his hand and walked away in a boring manner.
When Anderson saw that Sun Yang and Westbrook were still communicating their relationship, he decided to work alone. In this situation, he left a good impression on the senior management of each team, which was better than anything else. He used his teammate's pick-and-roll and Anderson jumped in the penalty area and added two more points. Anderson's body was the best defender, with a weight of 198 cm and 95 kilograms, and the worst thing was that his touch was very soft.
The two sides went back and forth and ended the second quarter soon, and Ross was resting all quarters. Sun Yang's performance was mainly reflected in the defensive system. The offensive flag was carried by Anderson, who was hot, and he scored 15 points in a single quarter, while the others scored a total of 10 points.
The score on the court is 57:52, and Ucla used one quarter to recover one point. Westbrook scored 8 points in the second quarter and Love scored 8 points. Since Westbrook passed him a good goal, he waited for more than ten minutes, but he got nothing. So after grabbing the rebound, he was so stingy that he didn't pass it out, otherwise these 8 points would be bad.
The highest scorer in the game is Anderson's 19 points, and he has also successfully promoted himself. A total of 5 people in Memphis will participate in the draft in June, so they will have a brand new lineup in the new season in November in the second half of the year. Many teams are like this, and the new and old are replaced too quickly, but Memphis will surely have a poor student base in September if he can get to this point this year.
The atmosphere in the locker room of both sides was completely different. Kalipari was very pleased to see his beloved players. The scale of a team's five-person talent show is quite large. As for what kind of achievements they can do after landing in the NBA, it depends on their own efforts, and no one can help.
On the other side, Holland's hands were numb, and the tactical board was smashed. He shouted hideously: "Tell me what you are doing, this is not a joke. A semi-finished team can lead by 5 points. Don't you feel shame? Don't think that you can pat your butt and leave after the game is over. Your cowardice in this game will always be engraved on your resume. Listen, in the second half we have to play collective basketball, 5 points are nothing, throwing two three-pointers can overtake one point, don't be afraid of failure, what am I afraid of is that you are used to failure, so what else can you do when you go out in the future? So cheer me up and listen to me, we are like this..."
(I want to recommend the votes, the numbers are too ugly. Are you not satisfied with the third update every day?)
