Chapter 37 The same starting line

57:52, Westbrook looked up at the scorer. Coach Holland's reprimand was not useless. He is now in the strongest state and has a full desire to score.

At the beginning of the second half, UCL was still the same lineup, and Memphis also replaced all the starters. Sun Yang, Ross, Hassim, Anderson, and Roberts, this lineup can make a difference in offense and defense systems.

Memphis's ball rights, Sun Yang transported the ball to the frontcourt without any speed. Now he has the initiative, so there is no need to worry. Westbrook posted it up immediately, but this time he was not inspired by Sun Yang's cold words. He stretched out his right hand twice to try to steal. It seemed that he really wanted to compete with Sun Yang.

Words were useless, and Sun Yang was not vague. The dribbling range was getting faster and faster, and the basketball was flying around like an elf. Suddenly, Sun Yang pressed his center of gravity and his right leg collapsed. Westbrook thought he was going to break out from the right and subconsciously move half a step away. Sun Yang pulled the basketball with his wrist and returned to his crotch. He was about to speed up and start seeing Rose penetrated straight from the bottom line from the penalty area like a flash of lightning. Sun Yang passed the ball out before Westbrook came up. Rose was very comfortable to catch the ball and smashed it in with both hands. He only scored 14 points until now. However, he basically didn't have much strength today, and he was still in full blood. How pleasant it would be if he easily cleaned up his opponent and advanced to the finals.

The facts are always crueler than ideals. In the second half, UCL team became manic as if they were injected with chicken blood. The consequence of this is that Memphis scores more and more difficult, and defense is becoming more and more difficult.

Westbrook was still immersed in his dream of being the No. 1 pick, but his performance at the start of the second half was really impeccable, and even the two giants in the commentary table praised it. His overall view is not bad, but he is overconfident and often leads the team into the mud.

After dribbing the ball through the half, Westbrook handed it to Darren Collison to organize the offense, and he began to run and seek opportunities, while Sun Yang stuck to him like a candy, never leaving. The offensive side always had an advantage. Westbrook successfully touched the ball in the paint through his teammate's pick-and-roll, and then kicked his calf in the air and took the ball with his right hand and smashed it into the ring with half a circle. The explosive windmill dunk was born.

After healing, the scar has forgotten the pain, and Westbrook tried to anger Sun Yang again. Perhaps you can understand it as giving the other person the way he did.

"Rookie, have you seen it? Can you play dunks like this? Oh, I seem to have forgotten that you are just a dwarf less than 1.9 meters tall, and it deserves recognition and praise when you touch the ring. I express my deep regret for this. The dwarf will never know what it feels like to fly in the air. It's sad!" Westbrook's trash talk made great progress through the ravages of the half.

Sun Yang's reaction was to serve quickly and leave the fast attack, and he didn't care about the two guys. Ross turned the ball continuously and successfully drifted past two UCL defenders because of this blocking his speed, from a top sports car to a tractor. Sun Yang had already run ahead with a whip, followed closely behind the fierce Westbrook.

Ross simply slowed down and flew out with a pair of basketballs with both hands. When he landed, he happened to be in the penalty area in the frontcourt. He also had a little spin and would not fly over the boundary all at once. Sun Yang felt comfortable with the ball. After accelerating, he flew lightly and took the last step of the three-step layup.

At the same time, Westbrook, who was about to take advantage of Sun Yang, also took the air. The projection of his body made Sun Yang feel the pressure. It is worth considering whether to make a layup by dunk or a different move. In order to prevent him from being knocked away in the air, Sun Yang decided to dunk.

Unexpectedly, Westbrook stretched out his sinful hand the moment Sun Yang took the ball with both hands and was about to stuff it into the ring. The basketball was knocked away, but after rebounding, it still fell into the net bag.

Sun Yang's body hung on the ring and swung for a few seconds as a buffer. After landing, his first reaction was to squirt at the frustrated Westbrook. Who said that the dwarf could not fly?

After two minutes of the score difference, the score difference was still 5 points. Coach Holland was a little anxious and stood on the sidelines to point fingers. Westbrook was annoyed by him and under Sun Yang's pressure, he had no good chance, so he simply passed it to Love. Lov was already dissatisfied. After getting the ball, he used his body to squeeze out Roberts and hit the ball in the face frame. After he succeeded, he roared and vented his depression.

In contrast, UCL's internal conflicts, Memphis played very unitedly. Sun Yang passed it to the left-wing power forward Roberts, who was bullied by Loew for so long and was a little angry. After all, he was also a figure who booked the first-round draft pick, so he always had to perform at the right time.

After two steps to the right, Roberts suddenly pulled the ball, turned around, and took off the fake move and then jumped from his armpit to score a goal. This series of movements was very smooth, obviously familiar with it.

The two sides went back and forth, and the third quarter was the top priority, and success or failure was the first to take place. Memphis widened the score difference to 10 points at most, but Westbrook, who was crazy in the end, scored 5 points in a row, so the two sides tied in the third quarter, but there was still a 5-point difference.

The highest scorer in the game is Westbrook's 23 points, but he is the one who takes the most shots, and his shooting percentage is not ideal. Moreover, he is also the one who makes the most mistakes, and he has 5 times, accounting for more than half of the team.

"We still play like this in the fourth quarter, mainly focusing on cooperation, and exerting the strength of the whole team to kill UCL. I believe that victory will eventually belong to us." Calipari said to Roberts, "Well done," and then said loudly in the circle surrounded by the players. He looked over each player's face one by one and saw the belief of perseverance and victory.

The brief rest ended soon, and the situation in Memphis was a little bad at the beginning of the fourth quarter, because UCL played too efficiently, or simply said that the goddess of luck favored them. First, Westbrook was forced to make a move outside the 24-second three-point line, and the basketball bounced out and then rose straight and fell straight into the net bag. Then, Lov's mid-range shot hit, and the basketball jumped on Hassim's shoulder and rebounded strangely into the frame. This kind of luck made people helpless, and the probability of winning a five million prize was not as high as that.

"Who do you think will win?" Walton asked with a smile.

"It's hard to say that now the two sides have tied again, and Memphis' advantage accumulated for more than 30 minutes has disappeared. And luck seems to be on UCL's side. I'm looking forward to seeing these young men win the 12th championship trophy in the history of the team." Miller said.

(I am a little dissatisfied with my writing recently. I hope I can write an online novel that I can read twice. The competitive category has changed a lot recently. I hope this movie can provide you with food. I like it is my greatest honor!)
