Chapter 87 I don't want to lose
NBA stars have done a lot of things that provoke fans, but being able to respond at the same time in action and in games is the real response.
Just like now, even if Chen Mo is provoking, the University of Texas fans are just powerless.
As for being a little angry, it's just incompetent and furious!
"Oh, Chen's move is so unfriendly!"
Slant Martin was a little unhappy, and this was a complaint for Texas fans.
This is a national live broadcast, and Ron Green must speak on behalf of ESPN.
"But, Texas fans did it first, what they said was too bad."
As a media, ESPN must not be infected with discrimination in public places.
What's more, Ron Green doesn't like Texans either, just like most Americans.
The game continued, and after adjustments by Texas coach, Rick Barnes, they changed their defense.
Urkins began to stick to Chen Mo. Judging from his attitude, it was not easy to catch the ball, and he kept fighting.
When Chen Mo broke through, he kept double-teaming and achieved certain results.
Although Chen Mo's pass is good, double-teaming is indeed the best way to limit the opponent.
Fortunately, UCLA made several fast breaks, Capono made a three-pointer, and Cedric also made a layup.
In the second half of the first half, UCLA continued to lead the score.
53:44
At the end of the first half, Chen Mo scored 23 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists. In the second half, Texas University defended too hard.
Of course, more importantly, TJ Ford performed quite well, with 13 points, 1 rebound, 6 assists, and two steals.
I thought Cedric could play TJ Ford with his body, but he was directly stolen once and forced to make a mistake.
"Are you going home to fish?"
In the locker room, Coach Rick Barnes was furious and was very unhappy about the team's current situation.
"In the second half, I hope to recover the score as soon as possible, TJ, your breakthrough needs to be more sharp.
And Urkins, your defense is like a woman, how many points do you want that Chen to score on your head? 40 points?
Just like you, you still want to enter the NBA through defense? I tell you, it is impossible to get him to score 40 points, and your NBA has no chance."
...
Urkins didn't say anything, but just clenched his fists. The NBA's appeal was too great.
Compared to TJ Ford, he is not a particularly talented person, he can only rely on hard work.
Moreover, he is already a senior, and this year is his last chance.
Today is Quanmi Live. If the opponent's players get 40, will he still have a chance to enter the NBA?
No!
At the beginning of the second half, Urkins posted it again. Chen Mo was a little surprised. He hasn't served yet. Should he be so exaggerated?
"Uh... it's not right, it's you attacking!"
Urkins was stunned for a moment, and he saw TJ Ford dribbling over, but he was unmoved.
Sure enough, as long as I am not embarrassed, the embarrassing one will be someone else.
TJ Ford is indeed powerful, and even the middle distance that he is not good at is hit steadily.
53:46
Urkins was indeed trying his best, and he didn't give Chen Mo a chance at all, and he wanted to get entangled with Chen Mo.
Moreover, as a live game for Quanmi, the referee's call is also a bit rigorous, and he should be as little as possible.
Of course, the premise is that there is no conflict, which also makes Urkins use more small actions.
Capono ran out to catch the ball and made a three-pointer, but unfortunately he smashed the basket and went out.
Chen Mo entered the inside line as early as Capono's move. There was no way, Capono was not there, so he could only grab the frontcourt rebounds.
According to UCLA's tactics, two people will fight for the frontcourt rebounds and delay the opponent's fast attack, while others will return to defense as soon as possible.
Because it was a three-pointer and hit the front of the basket, it bounced far and was just right for Chen Mo to grab a rebound.
Chen Mo caught the rebound immediately, but felt that he was hit hard behind him, but Urkins rushed up immediately.
"Ding!"
The referee blew the whistle at the first time, but he still couldn't help but fall. Chen Mo and Urkins fell down together.
"Damn!"
Chen Mo cursed, is there someone trying to commit a malicious foul again? However, seeing Urkins fell miserably.
Urkins didn't say anything, got up as soon as possible, ready to defend.
Chen Mo was stunned. I am still lying on the ground, who are you guarding against?
He simply didn't catch the ball, let Cedric take the ball, and slowly came to outside the three-point line.
As a result, Urkins acted like a dog skin plaster.
In the next position, Urkins even pushed Chen Mo and wanted to squeeze him out.
Chen Mo was also a little depressed and insisted on Urkins' request, but he ended up turning over again.
It was still Urkins' foul.
"This guy is crazy? I want to get out early!"
However, Chen Mo's offensive rhythm was indeed destroyed, and he did not hit the target when he took another move.
In the next round of attack, Chen Mo made a fake move outside the three-point line and directly knocked Urkins down, preparing to take action from mid-range.
However, unexpectedly, Urkins, who was almost stalking, caught up again.
He almost didn't give Chen Mo a big hat. Although he avoided the block, the ball did not enter the same way.
Chen Mo felt the pressure of defense for the first time, and he felt a suffocating.
After all, no matter where you go, there is someone who wants to hang on you, and you will feel suffocated.
Chen Mo was completely restricted and was interfered like Urkins, as if his touch was exhausted in the first half. UCLA's offense was a bit broken.
The only good news is that UCLA's counterattack was good and maintained the score.
72:74
When the game reached 12 minutes and 03 seconds, UCLA's lead was only 2 points.
"Oh, Texas' counterattack horn is constantly blowing, and victory is right in front of you."
Slant Martin is 70 years old, but now he is as happy as a 200-pound child.
On the other side, Coach Steve's belated timeout finally rang.
"Chan, you can't get entangled with Urkins anymore, that's not necessary!"
Chen Mo nodded, and he also knew that he had a little impulsive and a little uneasy today.
"Also, Cedric, watch TJ Ford, he can't make it easy for him to break through."
"In the end, our offense is too slow, we need to speed up faster, do you know?"
"clear!"
UCLA's desire for victory is visible to everyone's naked eyes, otherwise it would not have hit this level.
From the bottom of the season to the current favorite to win the championship, outsiders only see the glory, but they can't understand the efforts.
Capono stood up and said, "I don't want to lose. This year is my last season, but I don't want this to be the last game!"
On the other side, Coach Rick Barnes asked as he looked at Urkins, who was gasping for breath and drinking water.
"Urkins, are you okay?"
Chapter completed!
