Chapter 75: Ginger is still old and spicy
"beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded, accompanied by the cheers of the audience on both sides, and the highly anticipated game finally kicked off.
Ori Archie transferred the ball back to the half, giving Kangda the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.
Walker held the ball in the frontcourt, Tang Tian directly mentioned the pick-and-roll at the high position, and Lamb also used Orland's pick-and-roll to find opportunities on the weak side.
Facing strong opponents, they had nothing to keep, and they gave the killer moves at the beginning.
Walker faces Solomon Hill, and has an accelerated breakthrough in changing directions.
Hill's defense is pretty good in the NCAA, but his speed is obviously a bit unsatisfactory.
After Walker broke into the basket, Johnson on the weak side was forced to help defend.
Walker's passing ability is not outstanding, but after a season of running-in, he can guess his teammate's position without having to look at it.
A hand-shaking pass came to Lamb's hand, and Lamb took the ball in the middle of the emergency stop.
"Swish!"
The ball was hollowed into the net, and Lamb made a steadily shot in the first shot at the opening.
Kangda fans suddenly burst into cheers.
The biggest surprise of the team this season is that they gained Tang Tian and Lamb, one with the best 3D and the other with the second scoring point. It was them who made Kangda transform his strength.
When Arizona University scored to the frontcourt, Johnson signaled his teammates to pull it away and directly gave the ball to Williams.
Because of its absolute strength, the University of Arizona’s tactics are much simpler than that of Kang University.
Williams faced Orland with the ball, and he was ready to use his speed to win his opponent.
Orland took a big step directly and gave Williams a shot space.
Williams chose to shoot directly after seeing it.
"Bang!"
The ball hits the back edge of the basket and bounces high.
His projection ability is indeed very unstable.
Perry wanted to rebound in the frontcourt, but Ori Archie stuck his position tightly to protect the defensive rebound.
Kang Da pushed the defense and counterattacked, Walker failed to make a layup, but Lamb came from behind to make a tip-in.
Kangda started 4-0.
A commotion was caused by the University of Arizona fans, and the game started differently from what they expected.
The scouts looked at Lamb at this time. This first-year student from Kangda looked really talented.
Derek Williams continued to play singles in the frontcourt. This time he did not shoot, but directly narrowed the distance with Orland, and then changed direction and squeezed through the opponent.
I have to say that his physical fitness is really good. This time, he forced his way through Orland at a close distance.
However, Ori Archie's assisted defense was soon in place. Williams was disturbed when he took action. Before Perry could jump, Ori Archie directly took off the defensive rebound.
Ollie pouted and nodded on the sidelines. Ori Archie's protection against the basket in these two rounds was perfect.
Just when everyone's attention was focused on Williams, Walker and even Lamb, no one cared about Ori Archie who was expelled from the game, and he was also holding on to the game.
There was a commotion among the University of Arizona fans. Before the game, no one expected that they had played more than two minutes at the beginning, but the University of Arizona did not score a single point.
Kangda's offense failed. Looking back at the positional battle at the University of Arizona, Williams continued to break through Orland. This time he squeezed past Orland and took action in advance after seeing Orlando assisting the defense.
Ori Archie's blocking failed, but Williams's move failed to score.
Williams showed his physical fitness at this time and grabbed an offensive rebound next to Ori Archie. However, when he made a second strong attack, Orland had already returned to the basket and slapped his shot and flew out of the field.
After Orlander blocked the shot, he bumped into Orioni Archie's chest on the spot, his eyes full of excitement.
Kangda fans let out whistles and cheers.
The scouts on the scene also whispered for a while, and it was obvious that Williams' performance after the opening was different from their understanding.
Even Williams' poor performance made the University of Arizona fall into a passive opening.
"Look, I'll say that the old man has a big move." Ben Gordon said with a laugh in the stands.
Okafor also smiled and nodded.
People who understand the ball can naturally understand the reasons for this situation on the field.
The reason why Williams cannot kill all sides like he did in the last game is obviously because Kahon's targeted adjustments have taken effect.
Although Orland's speed is slower than Williams, he is much taller than Williams, and the confrontation is not bad. If Williams wants to force himself, he can only rely on speed. However, there is also an equally tall Ori Archie at the basket, which locked Williams with the double towers.
In fact, the easiest way to crack the double tower is to shoot, but Williams' unstable shooting point was magnified at this time.
Jiang is still old and Williams is indeed very talented in this rookie, but he is no longer surprised during Kahon's 40-year coaching career.
Walker scored a goal with Hill in the frontcourt, and Kang Dalu started with a fantasy 0.
Tang Tian also wanted to give Kahon a thumbs up at this time. Kahon kept his time and gave Oli the coaching power, but at critical moments, the sword was unsheathed and sharp.
Williams used his physical fitness to cause Ori Archie's defensive foul for the fourth strong attack, and it was quite difficult to score.
This has almost become a microcosm of the first ten minutes of the two teams. Williams was unable to perform his strength in the face of the double towers, and the University of Arizona seemed to be unable to open the scoring and constipation, but Kang Dafa played smoothly.
During Kangda's halftime, Kahon lay leisurely in his seat, his expression looking very relaxed.
On the other side, at the halftime at the University of Arizona, head coach Sean Miller's white shirt was completely wet, and the psychological pressure he is under now can be imagined.
"This game... Williams still has a long way to go." Jefferson couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at it. He and Terry rushed in with interest, but unexpectedly, what he saw was the game where his alma mater was beaten by his opponent.
"Coach Miller is too young, and in comparison, the opposite Coach Kahon is too experienced." Terry shook his head and sighed.
"Old fox." Jefferson said, Terry spoke more implicitly, so he was more direct.
Terry was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing. The two of them said differently, but they mean the same thing. Sean Miller was completely defeated by Old Kahon on the opposite side.
Kangda's fast break, Tang Tian received Walker's pass and his three-pointer from the open space fell, and Kangda scored a 15-point lead 24-9.
Miller reached out and called for a pause.
The media reporters on the sidelines had a strange expression at this time. They did foresee that this would be a one-sided game before the game. After all, the University of Arizona has the No. 1 pick Williams.
But now, it is indeed one-sided, but it is exactly the same as what they imagined.
Kangda really surprised all of them.
Chapter completed!
