It is really not easy for Chen Mo to be stared at by one person to take action with three points.

It is obvious that Edlin targeted Chen Mo with three-pointers, making a sudden shot.

As for breakthroughs?

Haha, the most effective way to assist in defense is to release breakthroughs and turn to switch to defense after losing position.

What's more, just by Chen Mo's younger brother's breakthrough, it's simply too easy to defend.

Because Syracuse University suddenly changed its tricks, Chen Mo did not get used to it for a while, and the others at UCLA did not get used to it either.

After a round of basketball, I didn't find any good opportunity. In the end, Cedric could only attack the inside.

This time, Fox was obviously ready, and had been waiting for Cedric there, and gave him a big hat.

As for Syracuse University, it still continued its previous play style. Anthony passed the ball firmly when he was double-teamed.

Just so happened that Warrick stood up today and successfully hit the basket continuously. Capono couldn't defend himself.

It is very easy for other people at Syracuse to pass the ball, just throw the basketball to the basket, and Warrick can grab it anyway.

18:19

UCLA once again lagged behind, and more importantly, tactically, they were at a disadvantage.

Looking back, UCLA continued to attack. This time, Chen Mo held the ball and let Capono run.

However, Syracuse University was determined to play regional joint defense, and no one followed Capono at all, and Capono failed to get out of the opportunity.

There was no choice but to do it himself and asked for a pick-and-roll, but he was immediately involved in a double-team.

After finally passing the ball, Syracuse University rotated very quickly and had no good chance at all.

This time it was Cummings. The mid-range opportunity was good, but he still couldn't make it.

When Syracuse University attacked, it relied on Anthony to attract double-teams and was still creating opportunities.

This time, when Edlin finally showed his big brother, he hit a three-pointer against Chen Mo.

18:22

It's still exactly the same as before. Chen Mo was seen to death, and no other people had a good chance.

This time, Chen Mo was also a little anxious and took action against the defense, but the basketball broke out.

During the defense, because Capono double-teamed late, Anthony forced one to score.

18:24

In the blink of an eye, UCLA has fallen by 6 points.

It's only the first half, and the 6-point difference is nothing, but the problem is that UCLA is in trouble.

Faced with Syracuse University's tactics, UCLA's response seems to be ineffective.

For a moment, all the teams couldn't help but exclaim. Could this be the way to defend Chen Mo?

Why didn't we think of it?

University of Arizona, University of Oregon, University of Texas, University of Marquette is depressed...

Coach Steve responded quickly this time and called a timeout in time.

Well, it's already very slow, from leading by 3 points to falling behind by 6 points, the difference is nearly 10 points.

Coach Steve made tactical arrangements and made very big adjustments.

In the next game, Capono needs to stand up, and Cedric's breakthrough.

For a moment, UCLA's positional offensive tactics returned to the rhythm of last year.

It’s not that Chen Mo is powerless, but that he needs his teammates to share the pressure.

Nowadays, half of the defensive pressure is concentrated on Chen Mo, and at this time, teammates need to stand up.

Only when others throw the ball into it and divert Syracuse University's attention can Chen Mo have a chance.

Just like just now, Anthony has been double-teamed and has no good chance at all.

As a result, as Varick and Edlin scored continuously, UCLA's defensive attention inevitably shifted.

It was precisely because Anthony seized the opportunity just now that he secretly scored another goal.

Arrange the tactics and return to the game.

It was still Chen Mo who held the ball, but now Chen Mo has become the starting point of the offense, not the end point.

Let Cummings come to pick-and-roll. Chen Mo just made an action, and Edlin and Anthony immediately stepped forward to double-team.

Chen Mo naturally did not dare to delay. After pulling the two of them a little, he immediately passed the ball.

At this time, Cummings had already pulled away, and Chen Mo's ball was passing to him.

The reason why Cummings came to the pick-and-roll instead of Hollins was to have more choices.

Cummings holds the ball, and can choose to pass the ball or attack the basket, and he even shoots in a mid-range manner.

Coach Steve had already made tactical arrangements. At this time, Capono had already spared the cover of Hollins.

Outside the three-point line, Capono received the ball and took the shot.

It seems that UCLA's tactical arrangement has been completed, and the final question is whether it can be thrown into the ball.

"Bang!"

Unfortunately, what people never expected was that Capono missed the goal.

The good news is that in retrospect, Fox's pass at the high post was destroyed by Chen Mo and completed a wonderful steal.

Chen Mo took the opportunity to launch a fast attack, Hollins followed in the back row, and completed an air relay with Chen Mo.

Syracuse University was not in a hurry at all, but carried out its tactics step by step.

I have to say that it was obviously a very simple tactic, but it was made by Syracuse University.

Especially Warrick, who has poor independent offensive ability, can easily fight in this tactical system.

In addition, old players like Edlin are very stable at critical moments and can often perform unexpectedly.

The 20-minute game in the first half, everyone is quick and the slower one is slow, and it ends like this.

38:50, UCLA fell 12 points behind in the first half.

I have to say that throughout the season, UCLA has been making great strides and rarely falls behind, let alone so many points behind.

That is, in the finals of the Pacific Division Championships, because of the mentality, they fell behind more in the first half.

Is there any problem with UCLA's performance as soon as the finals arrive?

Chen Mo was a little helpless. It was not that he played badly or that his teammates played badly.

Well, except Cedric, the others performed poorly today.

The key is that UCLA's tactics were played out, but when he shivered, he failed to score the ball.

Moreover, everyone has times of poor performance, so you can't complain in your heart just because this is the final.

"Okay, it's not the time to be discouraged. There is still the second half and we haven't lost yet.

Although we lost in the first half, in fact, we played well and we have already played the tactics."

As a coach, Coach Steve is still very old. He knows that he can't put pressure on this time.

In this case, scolding the team members will only increase their pressure.

What's more, UCLA's playing is indeed not bad, no one is playing randomly, and everyone is playing according to the tactics.

"Since it is the tactic I arranged, then even if I lose, it is my responsibility!"

Coach Steve took the initiative to take responsibility. I have to say that at this time, he was like a real coach.

Not to mention anything else, Chen Mo obviously saw that the two rookies, Hollins and Cummings, were a little relieved.

It was also at this time that Chen Mo truly understood that the 5 people in basketball had more than just 5 people.

No matter how strong a person is, he will be at a loss.
Chapter completed!
