Chapter 27 Stand Up In Difficulties
Hollins was about to serve, but saw Chen Mo coming to catch the ball, so Cedric simply gave up his possession.
In fact, although Chen Mo is nearly two meters tall, he has a very good ball control at UCLA.
When the opponent chooses to press the whole game, Chen Mo always responds to the first point.
Chen Mo dribbled the ball through the half, then made a gesture, preparing to play the fourth set of tactics, which is a tactic of not having the ball cover and then taking the ball.
Under normal circumstances, this tactic is to fight around Capono. When Capono is not present, Chen Mo will fight.
At this time, although Capono was still present, Chen Mo proposed this tactic, so it was naturally impossible to continue to punch Capono.
Capono naturally had no objection to this. After all, his opponent took good care of him today and his condition was not good.
Logically speaking, the team's initial tactics were not completed, and the coach should adjust it.
However, Coach Steve Laven has never been a coach who likes to take the initiative to seek change.
In addition, Capono is the core of the team. If Capono does not perform, Steve can't believe the others.
Chen Mo performed well, but only a few games, while Capono has played steadily for three years.
Having said that, Coach Steve Laven is really so courageous, and UCLA can't get better every year.
Especially in UCLA's current situation, not to mention the bombardment tactics, even if it accelerates the offensive and defense conversion, Steve is still hesitant.
As for whether Coach Steve is unhappy about it?
Fortunately, he is not that kind of very cruel coach. He gives players on the court very high autonomy.
Chen Mo returned the ball to Cedric, but he appeared on the right bottom line, echoing Capono on the left bottom line.
It was just a breathtaking effort, and Chen Mo and Capono set off at the same time to move towards the center line.
In fact, this tactic has not changed much, it has been fought once just now.
However, before, it was Chen Mo who covered Capono, but this time, Capono blocked the people for Chen Mo.
I have to say that this change is very abrupt, and even Deng Taijones, who is defending Chen Mo, was disturbed.
Coupled with Hollins' cover, Chen Mo directly got rid of the defense and appeared at a 45-degree angle outside the three-point line on the right.
Almost the moment Chen Mo stepped out of the three-point line, Cyderick's ball had already passed.
Without any hesitation after receiving the ball, Chen Mo made a shot and the ball drew a parabola and headed straight for the ring.
Deng Taijones's blocking was late, and Chen Mo's height and wingspan, it can be said that this interference has no effect at all.
"brush!"
The ball entered the net with a sound, and even the Nets were bounced up, and ten out of ten hollows entered the net.
7:16
A three-pointer finally pulled the score difference back to within 10 points, and more importantly, ended UCLA's scoring drought.
"boom!"
The scene suddenly cheered, and the already somewhat depressed stadium was once again ignited.
“Beautiful job!”
Teammates all expressed encouragement to Chen Mo, and Coach Steve on the sidelines also realized it and signaled to change the tactical arrangements, focusing on Chen Mo.
In addition, one thing that must be said is that Jason Capono is indeed a very good player in the system.
As the team's star, he was not unwilling to accept Chen Mo's actions.
If it were someone else, even if he knew this, he might not be willing to do so.
Just like Ricky Davis, how good is he? Would he not know?
But he still said such stupid words. The Cavaliers chose James to assist him.
On the other hand, Capono not only did not feel uncomfortable, but was very active in attracting defense for Chen Mo and covering the pick-and-roll.
Such a player is very rare!
It can even be said that he is the type of player the coach likes the most.
However, then again, Capono with such a personality is destined to be unable to become a top star.
On the other side, Duke University, as its opponent, still seems very calm.
Not to mention that they still have a nearly double-digit lead, they are also very confident in their strength.
Looking at Deng Taijones in front of him, to be honest, he was still a little panicked when he attacked just now.
After all, this guy in front of him is not a good person, and he can even be called a famous bad guy in the NBA.
Facing such a player, it is not right. This is no longer a player, but a scumbag. Naturally, you need to be careful again and again.
Fortunately, although Deng Taijones has many small moves, he has not yet been baptized by the NBA.
Only after entering the NBA will he realize how gentle his movements are now, but he has evolved into a ball scum all the way.
Going back and attacking, Duke University continues its previous style of play, focusing on Sheldon.
Hollins has height and rebounds, and is a very good blue-collar worker in the college-level league.
However, his thin figure made him very difficult when facing a large center.
Even blind cats can meet dead rats, not to mention that Hollins has been working hard to defend.
This time, Hollins tried his best to withstand the first two waves of shocks, forcing Sheldon to take action in a hurry and missed!
Thompson grabbed the defensive rebound and launched a counterattack immediately. Unfortunately, Duke University is very disciplined and did not give much good chance.
When they fell into positional battles, it was still the same tactic. Chen Mo and Capono gave each other a pick-and-roll, while Hollins immediately gave another pick-and-roll.
Chen Mo went around and caught the ball again, but this time Deng Taijones was prepared and followed.
As a player who became famous by defense in the NCAA, Deng Taijones' defense is not bad.
The ball just now made Chen Mo easily score. This time, Deng Taijones naturally would not relax.
Seeing that Chen Mo had adjusted and was ready to take action, Deng Taijones immediately posted it to stop him.
Facing the pitcher, this is definitely the best way to try to reduce the shooting space.
Duke University also has excellent pitchers, and Deng Taijones is already very familiar with JJ Redick.
Deng Taijones had already rushed forward, but found that Chen Mo suddenly took the ball back.
"It's okay, just stick it on, the pitcher still can't!"
Such an exclamation is not only available now. Every time he faces JJ Redick, he always thinks like this.
Without the help of teammates, if you fail to take action immediately after receiving the ball, the effectiveness of the pitcher will be reduced by at least half.
However, what he never expected was that at this moment, Chen Mo actually moved.
It was not because his oppression made Chen Mo dare not take action just now, but... this was a fake move.
In Dengtai-Jones's perception, don't pitchers only catch and shoot? Just like JJ Redick, like Jason Capono.
The pitcher also has fake moves, but that kind of fake move is the very stiff one that can be seen through at a glance.
Chapter completed!
