065:Sewer macho mode activated(1/2)
Reid was almost crying. I am a scorer averaging 19.5 points per game. In terms of scoring, am I not better than you Yunlong?
There are more than 50,000 people watching this. Can you give me some face?
Would you be polite if you just let me go? Wouldn't you feel scared?
Dixon: To be honest, after watching Hamilton's game, I'm really not afraid of guarding you. I'm quite nervous, so I'm not afraid.
Reed's three-point shooting percentage this season is only 31.5%. You know, this is still the NCAA's three-point line.
Even with Francis' handicap, he can still shoot 38% from outside the NCAA three-point line.
Even Li Ang...
Well, this Li Ang is really not good at it.
In short, Reed's shooting ability during the NCAA period was quite poor, even dogs...Leon looked down upon him!
Moreover, Reid's shooting posture is very ugly.
He is a left-handed player, and when he shoots, it feels like he is throwing the ball with his left hand at an angle, which is commonly known as "sniper throw".
When he entered the league in the future, Reed's shooting posture was instantly comparable to Marion's.
God knows how he will use this posture to find his shooting target in the future. His career three-point shooting percentage is astonishingly 38%!
He is already disabled like this, and everyone can practice shooting. Look at my brother, hey.
After reading Reed's story of being physically disabled and strong in spirit, Li Ang became more confident in his shooting.
My shot can still be saved!
Reed saw that Dixon really didn't guard against his long shot, so he mustered up the courage and took a sniper shot from outside the three-point line.
Yes, although my three-point shooting percentage is a bit low, it’s not completely impossible!
If you let me go like this, you will pay the price!
"Boom!"
Reed's shot cost Liang a rebound.
How miserable.
Reed was really overly concerned. No one on the Terrapins team thought he could score a three-pointer at all.
I just feel that he can hardly score three-pointers. This kind of three-point shooting rate can't kill anyone.
Speaking of which, it's a shame that Li Ang didn't choose Ohio State last year.
Otherwise, his and Reid's double-rejection combination could smash the basket in the University of Ohio basketball arena.
What does it mean when O'Neal smashes a backboard? Have you ever seen someone break a backboard with iron?
Li Ang handed the ball to Francis and then prepared to step forward to cover.
Today, Gary Williams' strategy is to focus on the outside.
Along the way, Ohio State has basically relied on offense to win. Since the start of March Madness, Ohio State has not had a game with a score lower than 70.
In the NCAA competition, it is not an easy task to score more than 70 points in every game.
But Ohio State's defense, especially its perimeter defense, is not that good.
Although Payne is positive enough, after all, his height is there, and this is a flaw that was carried in his mother's womb.
And Reed, whether in the NCAA or NBA period, was not an excellent defender.
On the contrary, it's Ohio State's inside big man, Ken Johnson, who stands 2.11 meters tall, who specializes in wiping butts.
Therefore, starting from the outside is the best choice.
Li Ang made such a block, and Reid was unable to bypass the defense, allowing Francis to get a chance to shoot from outside the three-point line.
Boss Fu didn't hesitate. Boy, let this ACCC Rookie of the Year teach you what projection is!
Brother Fu confidently threw the ball, and with a "dong" sound, the basketball also hit the frame.
"Steve missed a great opportunity to take the lead, Ohio State counterattacked, and Payne was very fast!"
Soon enough, Payne was already running towards the frontcourt after catching the basketball.
Although he is less than 1.8 meters tall, he is short, lean and extremely fast. Once he accelerates, no one can stand it.
Counterattack is his favorite way to score.
Relying on his astonishing speed, Payne easily made a layup and scored two points, helping Ohio State take the lead.
This attack and defense made Reid instantly confident.
Francis’ three-point shooting is on the same level as mine!
The goal that Mr. Fu just missed was indeed a little too far. After all, there were more than 50,000 people at the scene, so he was still a bit nervous.
The Terrapins continued their attack, and this time the ball was given to Dixon.
However, as soon as he got the ball, he was directly intercepted by Payne, who had quick eyes and quick hands!
Although Payne's overall defensive ability is not good, in terms of steals alone, he averaged 2 per game this season.
After the break, Payne accurately passed the ball to Reid.
Reed took the ball and went down quickly. After breaking through to the basket, instead of speeding up his pace, he deliberately slowed down and took the initiative to fight. He used his wide back to block Francis behind him and succeeded in an easy layup.
Although Reid was a bit poor at shooting during this period, his scoring skills in other aspects were impeccable.
After all, he is a guy who can average 19.5 points per game without shooting. If he has shooting, he can probably get 10 more points.
4-0, Ohio State explained why they were able to reach the final four.
It’s an attack, it’s a breakthrough!
In the next round, Francis still missed his three-pointer.
Originally, Fred was not known for his stable shooting. Occasionally, there would always be one or two games where he excelled.
But today is the semi-finals, so today’s shooting was a bit rough.
The more Reed plays, the more confident he becomes, which means he relies on his peers to support him.
With Francis around, his shooting seems to be less solid.
He thought to himself, if he dares to bet like Francis, then I am afraid of a hammer!
Seeing that Dixon actually let him go, Reed fired another shot from beyond the three-point line.
However, this time, the basketball hit the net hollowly and Reed hit a three-pointer.
Upon coming up, the Terrapins were beaten 7-0 by Ohio State.
No matter how stubborn Reed's three-pointers were, he never reached the point where the Turtles would play in a cold zone except for the basket.
Wait, Turtle?
Li Ang turned his head and glanced at Boss Fu next to him, "Why do you think you two are becoming more and more alike!"
What is the relationship between you and Kameko!?
Gary Williams nervously called a timeout. We cannot repeat Duke's old path today. We must not lose in the finals!
"After the pick-and-roll, I broke through directly and held back my shot. You inserted it, why are you dawdling outside!"
It was obvious that Gary was really anxious, and he used all kinds of cruel and wolfish words.
After returning from the timeout, Francis also followed the coach's instructions and broke through directly after the pick-and-roll.
But Ohio State has arrangements, and it is impossible for Francis to have such an easy break.
Seeing Francis rushing inside, Ken Johnson, who was 2.11 meters tall, quickly raised his arms and stepped forward, preparing to block Francis.
Ohio State has plenty of solutions for the Terrapins' leading scorer.
Seeing this, Boss Fu passed the ball to the ground through the gap in the crowd.
The basketball passed under Johnson's two dragon balls and went straight into the penalty area!
Under the basket, Li Ang caught the basketball, then used a rugby-playing posture to protect the ball, and hit the white forward Jason Singleton who was defending him hard.
After knocking the opponent away, Li Ang rounded his arms and jumped up to dunk with one hand!
Singleton did not give up. After being pushed away, he hugged Li Ang and prepared to use a foul to pull him down.
Ohio State head coach Jim O'Brien knows Leon very well. After all, he was once one of the many licking dogs of the little emperor of Kremlin.
He is very aware of Li Ang's destructive power in the penalty area, and he is also very aware of Li Ang's anxious shooting ability.
Therefore, his instructions to Singleton today are: "When you see him catching the ball under the basket, foul him directly! I would rather let him shoot free throws than score directly!"
But Singleton didn't think of fouling until it was too late.
The moment he hugged Li Ang, Li Ang had already completed a dunk with one arm hanging from the frame.
The referee's whistle sounded, Li Ang's dunk was valid and there was an additional penalty!
Suddenly, the fans at the scene cheered.
