"Then why did you choose Kangda as your opponent?" the reporter asked.

Kangda is in a normal state now, and Bernard's previous words are more like supporting himself. There is something in the reporter's question.

"We need such an opportunity. We need to prove the strength of our team. At the same time, this is also an opportunity to show the strength of the PAC-10 league." Bernard replied in a tight manner, and he obviously made sufficient preparations before the game.

"Do you think the team has a great chance of winning tonight?" the reporter continued.

"Of course, despite the strong opponents, we are just as good as we have the best shooting guard Klay Thompson." Bernard's face was full of pride when he said of Thompson.

"Yes, Clay is a great scorer, but as far as I know, Connecticut has recently made a newcomer with excellent defense, and players like Jimmy Butler and Dion Witts have been completely limited by him," the reporter reminded.

"I know, Tang Tian, ​​his defense is excellent, but we have prepared a solution. He can't stop Clay from playing, and we also know that he has obvious weaknesses." Bernard seemed very confident.

"You mean he hasn't gone too far?" the reporter asked tentatively.

"Look, you know it all, it's no secret." Bernard said with a smile.

The reporter understood the smile.

The interview was very short. When the wave ended, a long whistle came from the sidelines, and the two teams returned to the half.

The game began soon, and the drums and cheers at the scene were heard together, and Decibel was twice as big as Kangda's home court.

Playing ball in such a high-pressure environment is really unbearable for most people's hearts.

The starters of the two teams appeared one after another.

On the Washington State University is Thompson and on the Moon, Walker is the leader in Kang University.

Tang Tian did not start, he was still sitting on the bench, but unlike before, he was almost next to the open position at this time, and was the player with the highest rotation order in the team.

"beep!"

With the referee's whistle, the ball was thrown into the air and the game officially began!

Ori Archie jumped to win the opponent, giving Kangda the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.

"Defense! Defense!"

The DJ led the audience to shout at the beginning, and the loud shouting made people's eardrums hurt a little.

Walker held the ball, and Washington State directly set up a 2-3 joint defense.

Joint defense means that players defend on the court without targeting people, but only targeting the area, each responsible for their respective defensive areas, and then join forces to form a half-court defense.

According to the different focus of defense, joint defense is divided into 2-3/3-2/2-2-2-1/2-1-2, etc.

Because the NCAA does not have a three-second defense rule, many teams will use joint defense in the game.

The reason why Washington State University has risen rapidly this season is that in addition to Thompson's outstanding offensive performance, good joint defense is also a very important reason.

The 2-3 joint defense they set out at this time focused on inside defense.

The key to breaking the joint defense is the pick-and-roll, Walker waves, and Ori Archie quickly mentioned the three-point line to do the pick-and-roll.

Walker broke into the high position with a pick-and-roll, but the players who assisted in defense were soon in place.

It can be seen that Washington State University's joint defense is not dead, but full of flexibility.

However, Walker's ability is indeed the top in the NCAA. He swung his hand through the wall and gave the ball to Lamb on the outside.

Lamb had the opportunity to make three-pointers at a free spot, so he directly chose to take action.

"Bang!"

The ball was a bit off and the basketball finally jumped out of the basket.

Lamb had three points, but it was obvious that his three points were not stable.

Washington State University controlled the rebound, and after the defender held the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, he directly called for tactical running.

Thompson began to run around various pick-and-roll without the ball.

Washington State University's inside line is not tall, but it moves fast enough. After a few pick-and-rolls, Kangda's defense is obviously a bit unsatisfied.

Thompson had a chance to go around to the right forty-five degrees, and the defender passed the ball immediately.

Thompson took the ball directly after receiving it.

Bend your knees, jump, straighten your arms, and lift your wrists.

Thompson's moves were quite smooth, just like a textbook.

Moreover, the attack speed is very fast, Kangda's assisting defense is not enough.

"Swish!"

The basketball is directly hollow into the net.

Washington State University takes the lead!

Cheers suddenly broke out on the scene.

This is their beloved Klay Thompson. Every night there will be a three-point rain, which will make the opponent's scalp numb.

The first move he made was hollow at the beginning, and it seemed that his touch felt very good tonight.

Back to the defensive end, Washington State University still defended 2-3 in joint defense. It seems that Bernard is accurate to Kangda’s three-pointer from the outside.

Walker continued to encounter assisted defense by using Ori Archie's pick-and-roll breakthrough. He passed the ball to Smith in the open position. Smith took the ball and then made another three-pointer after receiving the ball.

"Bang!"

Or a blacksmith.

Kang Da failed to score two open three-pointers at the beginning!

Kahon's face was a little bad at this time.

There is no problem with Kangda's method of breaking the joint defense, but the problem is that it cannot be made in the open space, and even the top coach is powerless.

Washington State University then collected defensive rebounds and attacked almost the same tactics as the frontcourt.

Kangda's assisted defense has been well followed, but Ori Archie's movement speed is still slow, and Thompson got a chance at the bottom corner.

Washington State University focused on Thompson, and the defender passed the ball in the first time.

This time the opportunity was not as good as the last time. Thompson received the ball, and Ori Archie struggled to make up for defense.

However, Thompson was obviously not just a fixed-point pitcher. After receiving the ball, he made a fake shot and tricked Oriarch away, and then drove a step to the side before taking action.

The ball flew across a curve, and the ballistics were very correct.

"Swish!"

Another crisp sound echoed in the stadium.

Thompson's second three-pointer shot, and he made the move!

He scored two three-pointers in a row at the beginning!

The touch feels hot!

Thompson was also a little excited after scoring the goal, and reached out to make a three-pointer gesture when he returned to defense.

The cheers burst out again, and the momentum became more and more amazing.

A dunk can detonate the scene, and a continuous three-pointer is also OK!

Kangda's offense, Walker suddenly accelerated after taking advantage of the pick-and-roll, and squeezed through the emergency stop after defense.

Washington State University players struggled to save.

"Bang!"

The ball is too difficult, and the ball hits the back edge of the basket and bounces high.

Kangda's attack still doesn't make it!

Cheers were constantly coming.

After getting the rebound, Washington State University directly pushed the defense and counterattacked. Thompson went to the frontcourt to receive the pass from his teammates, and chose to directly chase three points against Smith's defense!

Smith's defense was completely in place for this ball. Thompson was confident in shooting, and he made a strong shot against the defense!

The ball crossed Smith's defense and drew a spiraling arc in the air.

"Swish!"

Still in!

Thompson scored three consecutive three-pointers at the beginning!

The scene was completely exploded.
Chapter completed!
