Chapter 42: One Word Attacks the Heart(1/2)

(Happy National Day! Please bookmark it!)

"Beep!" When Johnson dribbled through half the ball under Lucas's defense, the referee blew a whistle.

The Sacramento Dragons played for 6 minutes in the second half and were beaten 10-2 and called a timeout.

The advantage of 17 points can be said to be like the sand in the palm, which unknowingly flows with time. What's even more hateful is that it has clearly clenched its fists, but it cannot be used with force.

Kevin Johnson slapped the basketball hard when he left the court before handing it back to the referee. Obviously he was extremely depressed.

On the contrary, Gan Guoyang, who was extremely depressed in the first half, was proud at this time. Although he had not started scoring after he came on the court, he rebounded, blocked, assisted and grabbed the dragon's arrow with the Vikings, which made him feel very happy.

"This is our rhythm! It's the performance we should have! Do a good job, Lucas, I hope you can keep it until the end of the game." Bellman loudly encouraged the players and the outstanding surprise Lucas during the suspension.

"Note that we may not have so many opportunities to go to fast attacks next. The opponent will definitely send players to pick up Johnson when attacking, so we have to make changes again. Listen well, this will be the time to decide the outcome!…………”

Bellman knew that now is not only the players on the court, but also the time for coaches to compete in wits and courage.

The two-minute long pause time was soon arrived. After adjustments, the two sides stood back on the court.

"Damn it, another small man was sent. Do you want to play a double point guard?" Gan Guoyang looked at the lineup on the opposite side and found that in addition to Kevin Johnson, the Dragons sent a small player over 6 feet.

As expected by Gan Guoyang, the Dragons used the double point guard move. When they kicked off, they no longer handed the ball to Johnson, but passed it to their newly replaced No. 10.

Lucas was still staring at Johnson, but Johnson, who was not in control of the ball, was not so easy to follow. Although Lucas had excellent physical strength, his high center of gravity obviously could not keep up with his footsteps.

"Everyone is staring at their own matchup, follow, Stanley pays attention to making up for defense!" Gan Guoyang commanded loudly within the edge of three seconds.

The Vikings' defense has been changed to human-to-man defense. After all, 1-2-2 joint defense is not a long-term solution, and the defects are easily exposed.

However, in order to protect the inside, Bellman still put Stanley in the three-second zone, after all, Gan Guoyang had already committed three fouls.

Kevin Johnson transformed into a shooting guard and began to run wildly along the Vikings' perimeter defense.

Lucas still followed Johnson tightly, and there was no trace of fatigue on his face.

The Dragons' newly replaced point guard is obviously inferior to Johnson in terms of offensive threats, and it is difficult for him to even get rid of Dipembroke's defense.

At this time, the dragon's white center mentioned that the left horn was used to make a wall, and after Kevin Johnson turned around from right to left for a long circle, he finally took the left horn position to rely on the center's cover to get rid of the annoying candy.

Johnson successfully got rid of Lucas, while Stanley did not follow the Dragon's center because he was in the inside.

Gan Guoyang was pulled to 45 degrees on the right by the opponent's power forward, so the entire Vikings' defense line was wide open in the middle.

The Dragon's No. 10 substitute point guard failed to make a breakthrough, but the pass was very qualified, so he handed the ball to Johnson in time.

How could Johnson miss this shot that he finally got and jumped immediately after receiving the ball at the top of the arc.

"Bang!" Stanley was unable to make up for defense within three seconds, and the basketball was hit into the basket.

50:61, the Dragons once again widened the score gap to more than 10 points.

"I did a good job in the defense just now. Keep it up, Lucas, increase your toughness! Beat the offense carefully!" Bellman clapped his hands and encouraged the players.

Losing goals like this is sometimes inevitable, after all, it is impossible to completely lock the star player on the other side.

It was the Vikings' turn to attack, which was also the first time the Vikings' real positional offense in the second half. The previous 10 points were obtained by relying on fast break layups and quick chase attacks.

"Don't give No. 11 a chance! Push him out, push him out!" The Dragon's coach couldn't sit on the bench and watched the game, standing on the sidelines like Bellman and shouting.

Although no matter how hard the dragon's center forward was, he could not stop Gan Guoyang from being a key position, but he tried his best to push Gan Guoyang to a more external external.

When Dippenbloke saw that Gan Guoyang was in good position, he immediately hung the ball to him, then moved to the right to lead the dragon's defense away.

Although Gan Guoyang is about to reach the position, it is not deep, so it is difficult to turn over and shoot directly.

He tried to dribble and pushed the ball back a few steps. Other players of the Dragons were already ready to move and wanted to come and double-team.

At this time, Gan Guoyang, who had not forgotten to observe everywhere, found that a touch of green suddenly flashed into the purple under the basket.

Without hesitation, he immediately passed the ball by a master, and the ball drilled from top to bottom into the Dragons' three-second zone.

And it was Ada Lucas who received the pass!

Although Lucas is thin, he can't shoot or break through, he used to practice long-distance running and has excellent physical strength.

Whether on offense or defense, he used tireless running to disturb the opponent.

Defensively he constantly consumes Kevin Johnson's physical strength, and his running during offense always makes the defense, which is not very tight, have greater gaps.

In this way, he rushed into the heart of the dragon like a loach, received a pass from Gan Guoyang, and easily made a layup.

"Good, Ada!" "You're an All-Star!" "Great!"

The Vikings' bench exploded again. Although it was just an ordinary empty cut goal, it was already the 8th point Ada Lucas scored in the second half!

His score accounts for three-quarters of the team's second half!

Even Bellman looked incredible, and he didn't expect Lucas to perform like this.

He originally wanted to take advantage of Lucas Superman's physical strength and height wingspan to consume Kevin Johnson in the second half.

If Lucas doesn't perform well enough or is too dragged on the offense, he will be replaced.

"Maybe there is really something wrong with my past employing strategy." Bellman couldn't help but think of Die Pembroke. This guy was discovered in the game against Skyrim High School. He was later promoted to the starting lineup and has been performing stably.

But what Bellman didn't know was that in addition to Gan Guoyang and Di Pembroke who practiced every day, there were actually Ada Lucas.

He has to go to the track and field to do another 100 rebate runs every day after training.

The score gap was narrowed to 9 points again, and the Dragons already felt that the Vikings' momentum was rising.

"Come on, come on! I have to defend myself this time, I have to defend myself!" Gan Guoyang shouted. He was actually extremely anxious when he was carrying three fouls at this time, and he could only use more words to encourage his teammates.

However, sometimes, even if you are afraid of anything, the Dragon Team finally realized that as long as you defeat Gan Guoyang, the Vikings' lives would be lost.

So the Dragons' point guard handed the ball to their power forward No. 15, allowing him to play Gan Guoyang alone.

The power forward of the Dragons team did not reach the position at the low post. He was one size smaller and he was misplaced to play against Gan Guoyang, and he could not get stuck at all.

He received the ball in the basket forty-five degrees on the right. After several tests, he was ready to use his speed to break through Gan Guoyang, which would be best if Gan Guoyang fouled.

In Gan Guoyang's eyes, the power forward's test steps were too fake. He was too lazy to turn his eyes and was not fooled at all.

"Come-on, come-on (Come, come-on), let's show your bad dribble!" Gan Guoyang also provoked his opponent with words.

In the California high school league, he really didn't meet any decent inside players, and he was not good at playing offense and defense.

The Dragon's power forward finally couldn't help but hold the ball and break through inward in the face of Gan Guoyang's provocation.

One step! Gan Guoyang was passed by the Dragon's No. 15 power forward in one step.

Even the No. 15 power forward himself couldn't believe it. He broke through the opponent's defense so easily. He thought Gan Guoyang must be afraid of fouls.

But another obstacle he faced when he suddenly reached the three-second zone was Stanley who had been squatting inside.

However, when Stanley faced No. 15, which was rushing towards the basket, did not jump and block the cover, but instead stretched out his arms and blocked his opponent like a fence.

No. 15 leaned against Stanley and forced a layup, but before the ball could be taken, it was pulled down by another hand.

It is Gan Guoyang waiting behind him.

This is simply a defensive trap. Gan Guoyang lets the opponent in, Stanley hinders the opponent's jump and action space inside, and Gan Guoyang then makes up from behind to cover the ball.

This kind of ball is definitely not good for Kevin Johnson, because he is too fast, but there is no problem with the Dragons' No. 15 power forward.

The ball flew out of control in the air. After Gan Guoyang landed, he jumped again and took the ball firmly down.

When he wanted to make a long pass from the fast attack again, he found that the Dragons players had already stared at the opponent and quickly returned to defense.

One mistake can lead to wisdom, and the dragon suffers more than one mistake. They have strengthened their defense against the Vikings' fast attack.

Gan Guoyang could only avoid the harassment of the Dragon players, handed the ball to Dipengbloke safely, and attacked the position firmly.

Bellman should be said to be a defensive coach with rich defensive tactics, but his positional offensive tactics are really limited.

Inside singles, off-ball running and empty cuts, and outside singles are basically all the ammunition in his offensive arsenal, and the rest can only be achieved by the players themselves.

That's why he especially needs a star player with strong personal abilities.

Now that he has the star Gan Guoyang, he naturally needs to use it repeatedly and properly.

In this attack, Gan Guoyang got the ball at a high position, and other players began to repeatedly cut off the air to run.

But although the Dragons' defense is not strong, they are very focused at this time and are staring at the opponents. It is difficult for Lucas and Williams to run out of space.

Gan Guoyang held the ball high with his hands at the top of the arc for a long time, but he couldn't find a chance to pass the ball. If he didn't deal with the ball, the opponent's double-team might be coming up.

Gan Guoyang looked at the center of the Dragons who also raised his hand in front of him, trying to block his pass route, and suddenly received the ball below his waist.

He wants to make a breakthrough!

He grabbed the Dragons center and just wanted to prevent him from passing the ball. The center of gravity was too high. He grabbed the ball and accelerated the opponent and cleaned it.

The Dragon Team guards people and watches people. How could they expect Gan Guoyang, the center forward, to break through the middle, and they could not make up for the defense.

Gan Guoyang showed his good dribbling skills at this time. There is no key to the center breakthrough. First, you need to have room to exert force, and second, you need to be able to protect the ball.

After passing the Dragon's center, there was no obstacle in the forward route, and Gan Guoyang Energy accelerated fully; at the same time, his ball protection was very good, and the opponent's little one could not take away his ball.

So, a stalled truck rushed into the three-second zone again, and no one could stop the Dragon Team.

After Gan Guoyang entered the three-second zone, he moved two steps and then took the ball and took off, so he had a good flight distance, a very high height, and his body was unusually stretched, and his arms were particularly open.

"Bang!" The arm drew a gorgeous arc in the air, sending the basketball directly into the basket.
