Chapter 28 Assistant Coach

"Don't you say something?" Black poked Coach Thompson. Lu Qiujian's behavior seemed to violate the authority of the head coach. As an assistant coach, Black felt it was his responsibility to remind him.

"That's good!" Coach Thompson didn't notice the strangeness in Black's tone. "After only twenty minutes of observation, I summarized the technical flaws of the Broncos' five main players. I know that Princeton often produces monsters, but I have never seen it before.

Someone combines his expertise with basketball! In the second half we will see if his data can make a difference in the game!"

The words were full of expectations for Lu Qiujian, and Black felt a sense of sadness in his heart. He had been following Coach Thompson for several years, working hard from dawn to dusk for the basketball team every day, but he had never seen him praise him. Could this be the difference between a mortal and a genius?

Is there a difference?

Shortly after the start of the second half, Anthony once again received a basketball from Robbie in the low post. In the first half, he and Patrice were almost at odds with each other. On the offensive end, Patrice was always passed by his footwork.

On the defensive end, he couldn't resist Patrice's back attack.

Feint to the left, and then turn to the right with the ball. Ha, that fool will always be shaken away by his realistic feint. This time I will definitely dunk him on the head! Anthony thought happily.

What! Why is this idiot still standing under the basket? When he turned around, what he saw was Patrice who was still blocking him, but he had no time to make a move now.

With a snap, Patrice slapped the basketball he held above his head and sent it flying. Anthony received his first big shot in the game. Ed quickly took the basketball and moved forward.

At halftime of the Broncos, Patrice crowded Anthony behind him and raised his hands and yelled, "Ed, let me hit him!"

Ed made a fake shooting move to shake Robbie away and lobbed the ball to Patrice. Anthony, who had just received a big hit, was furious. When he saw him catching the ball, he started to babble, "Idiot, come on,

Fight me one on one like a man! I will beat you so hard that you won’t even recognize your mother!”

"Do you want me to dunk it on your head?" Patrice leaned back, squeezed Anthony away, and then turned around to shoot.

"Don't even think about it!" Anthony shouted and jumped up. He raised his right hand and wanted to cover the basketball in Patrice's hand. Hey, why is he still on the ground? Anthony wanted to stay in the sky for a while and wait until Patrice

He tried to make up for this block when he took off, but gravity ruthlessly rejected his proposal.

When he slowly fell, Patrice soared into the sky like a rocket, followed by a loud bang. Anthony quickly shrank his head to avoid Patrice's impact, and then he sadly discovered that Patrice's legs were now

hung on his shoulders.

Being ridden and dunked, Anthony was in tears and paralyzed. He was going to play the top five goals again tonight! Hey, why did I say that again?

By the time the game was over, Anthony hated why the word "you" had popped up in his mind. In the following game, Patrice contributed another wonderful block and then a one-stop dunk. According to the standards, this ball was undoubtedly a hit.

Will be on the top five balls of the night.

When ESPN viewers saw the five best shots, they were made to laugh by Anthony's confused look twice in a row. Anthony became famous in one battle, but this fame is probably not what he wants.

"Ha! You didn't see Anthony's expression at that time!" In the locker room, Patrice grabbed Lu Qiujian and kept talking excitedly, "He must be wondering why I happened to be standing on the right side waiting for him, continuously He was blocked by me three times and dunked by me twice! He must have doubts about his basketball talent now!"

"And Robbie, I let him shoot several three-pointers in the second half, but he didn't hit any of them!" Ed also swept away the gloom of the previous games and talked happily about how he defended Robbie's heroic deeds!

Then Gadson, Lei, Will and others also gathered around Lu Qiujian, and he seemed to be the biggest contributor to the victory of this game.

In the next game, the Princeton Tigers will go to Oklahoma to challenge the Oklahoma Sooners. This is a strong team in the NCAA. They have entered the knockout rounds for many years in a row. In the future, they will also train the No. 1 pick Gerry. A star player like Finn.

"Gadson, Patrice, Ray, Will, Ed, you five are starting!" Coach Thompson slightly adjusted the lineup, "Lu, pay attention and give your opinions at any time!"

"Okay!" Lu Qiujian depressedly closed a monograph about group theory and began to observe the five starting players on the opposite side. Soon the player named Taki Gray caught his attention. His movements are very flexible, explosive, fast, and he is good at using his body. He has already grabbed three rebounds in the first few minutes.

Under his leadership, the Princeton Tigers were quickly defeated. Coach Thompson looked at Lu Qiujian and said, "What good ideas do you have?"

It’s just statistics, why are you asking me about tactics? You’re the one getting paid! Lu Qiujian expressed his observations while complaining, “The core of the Sooners is Taki Gray, and they can only limit it.” Only with his performance can we find opportunities. It can be seen that he chooses to break through or play from behind every time he attacks. He obviously lacks shooting skills. At the same time, his movements on defense are a bit too large, so we can let him shoot when defending and let him shoot when attacking. Rush in and cause a foul! As for the other five..."

While nodding and listening to Lu Qiujian's analysis, Thompson wrote and drew on the tactical board, and then immediately called a timeout to arrange Lu Qiujian's thoughts.

Soon Taki Gray committed two consecutive defensive fouls, and the opponent's coach quickly replaced him; but even as a substitute, these boys from Princeton were not able to handle it. Although Lu Qiujian provided analysis and guidance at any time, the Tigers The team still lost the opportunity in the last minute and lost by five points.

"The Sooners were the team that entered the final four last year!" On the bus back, in addition to regretting the failure, they were more excited, "We have only lost to them by five points now! And Lu We haven’t played yet! Maybe we will have a chance to reach the semi-finals this year!”

"Come on, their main players from last year have long since left, and now they are all a bunch of rookies. They are not at the same level as last year's team!" Thompson's words made them calm down a little.

After coaxing these young men, Thompson turned around and asked softly, "Lu, do you want to be my assistant coach?"
