Watching the replay of Chen Yan’s goal on the big screen, Odom shook his head and sighed:
"fxxk! Is the level of the NCAA so outrageous now?"
"It's not that the NCAA level is outrageous, it's that this guy is incredible!"
Kobe put it bluntly, whether it was passing or finishing, Chen Yan's ability shown in these rounds has far exceeded the level of the college league!
"Whoa!"
Chen Yan stood on the free throw line and made the extra free throw!
The game continues.
University of Florida baseline serve.
Tao Lin-Green was not in a hurry to advance and slowly protected the ball past half-court.
Florida has a clear inside advantage compared to the University of Texas.
They are also very good at using their inside advantage.
Noah reached for the ball after getting stuck in the paint.
After receiving the ball, Noah didn't say anything and just dug in!
After two hard fights, Noah turned around and stepped out of the gap, passing the ball in the hands of Horford.
Although his technique is rough, Noah's golf IQ is not low.
Horford hit the rebound under the basket, as steady as an old dog.
This is the style of basketball at the University of Florida, team and stable.
It's a bit like the Spurs in the NBA. No matter how their opponents explode, it's hard to beat them to death with one stick!
In the Texas offensive round, after a struggle, Chen Yan received a pass from DJ Augustin at the top of the arc.
Chen Yan made a gesture, signaling Pittman inside to come up and play the pick-and-roll.
Pittman's pick-and-roll was of good quality, blocking Brewer firmly in front of him.
The University of Florida can only switch defenses.
Facing Horford's defense, Chen Yan decisively played small and large.
A sudden crotch pullback after accelerating directly threw Horford two meters away!
During this round of defense, Horford thought about his teammates' performance against Chen Yan before, and his body was a little too tight.
Chen Yan originally prepared a set of shaking moves to deal with Horford, but it seems that he can no longer use them now...
Pressure-free mid-range shot!
"Whoa!"
The pleasant sound of entering the network sounded!
Chen Yan couldn't help but shake his shoulders after scoring the goal, it was so easy!
The Texas fans cheered loudly and whistled to their heart's content. They liked Chen Yan's arrogant look!
On the other side of the stands, University of Florida fans cursed angrily and made international greeting gestures at Chen Yan.
They thought this was a provocative move by Chen Yan.
Seeing Chen Yan's state, Texas coach Rick Barnes on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief.
I thought the team would be passive after Durant left the game early, but now it seems that I was overly worried.
Chen Yan can handle everything by himself, at least so far.
"pause!"
University of Florida coach Donovan called a timeout.
Chen Yan has already scored 9 points in a row, and Donovan doesn't want to see the 'Final Four' turn into this guy's personal performance.
Taking out the tactical board, the first thing Donovan said after the timeout was: "I'll double-team that guy hard when I get on the court!"
Donovan was already frightened by Chen Yan's singles fight.
So far in the game, the five starting players from the University of Florida have all defended against Chen Yan, each with their own misfortunes...
No matter who is defending, the result will be the same. The only difference is that a different person is used to beat Chen Yan.
For a player like Chen Yan, Donovan can't think of a better way than double-teaming.
It happened that Durant was not on the court during this period. Without the restraint of this powerful firepower, the players from the University of Florida could pounce on Chen Yan unscrupulously!
Upon hearing the word double-team, several starters looked at each other.
To be honest, it's a bit embarrassing to let four juniors and NBA-level players double-team a freshman.
But no one dared to raise objections.
There is an essential difference between college basketball and the NBA. This is a de-commercialized league, and the head coach enjoys absolute say in the team.
So no matter you are a potential rising star or a favorite in the lottery, as long as you dare to be disobedient, I'm sorry, just stay on the bench!
On the other side, as soon as Chen Yan returned to the bench, the Texas water cooler team was already ready.
Someone handed him water, someone handed him a towel, and there were even players standing behind Chen Yan to press his shoulders.
After a few games, Chen Yan's status in the team has skyrocketed visibly.
Faced with the enthusiasm of his teammates, Chen Yan did not refuse.
Because he knows that some bench players may not get a minute of playing time in March Madness, and this is a way for them to contribute to the team.
Temporarily over, the game starts again.
After a series of passes from the outside, Florida point guard Taurean Green hit a three-pointer!
Florida's scoring points are very scattered, and whoever has the opportunity will shoot. This is the most difficult part of this team to defend.
Texas Longhorns offensive possession.
Chen Yan was obviously uncomfortable facing Florida's double-team in this round and almost lost the ball!
Fortunately, DJ Augustin responded in time to avoid Chen Yan's mistake.
After adjusting his condition, Chen Yan caught the ball again!
Before it started, Fliphan came around from the right, and the University of Florida's double-team came up again!
After catching the opponent's intention to double-team, Chen Yan did not give the defensive players a chance to position themselves!
First, he accelerated the dribble towards Frayhan's position, and then changed direction with his hips!
Use the two changes to accelerate backward and throw away the defensive player to find the opportunity to shoot!
Near the horns, Chen Yan hit a jumper!
Then in the next round, Chen Yan adopted a completely different method from the previous round to break the double-team.
When Fryhan was flanked in front of him, Chen Yan jumped up and passed the ball to AJ Abrams.
AJ Abrams did not hesitate after receiving the ball and handed it to DJ Augustin on the baseline.
Just when everyone's attention was on Augustin, Chen Yan suddenly accelerated without the ball and cut to the basket!
Augustin understood what he knew and hit the ground sideways to the inside.
After receiving the ball, Chen Yan made a cool basket and succeeded!
"Pay attention to his running without the ball! Don't stick to him too closely! Be quick to defend inside and keep your spirits up!!" Donovan is a handsome coach and rarely yells like this on the sidelines. This time
It's really urgent.
If double teams cannot restrain Chen Yan, then the game will be unwinnable.
"Clang!"
Noah took a shot from mid-range.
The University of Florida not only suffered setbacks on the defensive end, but also showed signs of weakness on the offensive end.
Chen Yan grabbed the rebound and advanced quickly!
However, the players on the Florida court were focused enough. Noah retreated in time after hitting the ball and did not give Chen Yan a chance to hit the basket directly.
Outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left, Chen Yan took a step forward and then suddenly slowed down and turned around.
It seems that he is waiting for his teammates to get into position, but in fact, his target has already locked on the basket behind him.
Sudden!
Chen Yan suddenly stopped the ball and turned around!
A coquettish and agile escape, directly leaving Brewer behind!
Noah, Horford and Flahan came in from three different directions at the same time!
Chen Yan ignored the three-man double-team and jumped directly from the baseline after taking a step!
Half turn, pull the lever, drift, and lean back!
Chen Yan was stunned and found a wide space to take action after dodging in the air!
The ball bounced on the basket three times and then fell straight into the net!
Three-person double team chooses to go hard!
I don’t know but I thought Chen Yan’s account was logged in by Kobe from another place this round!
Several University of Florida players looked at each other.
Just now, they thought it was a bit embarrassing to double-team Chen Yan, but when they actually executed the double-team, they realized... they couldn't even prevent the double-team!
"How dare you do this? Chen has already gone crazy!"
"He won't break his 62-point record tonight, right?"
"This waist is so good!"
"It must be very happy to be Chen Yan's girlfriend."
"It's the same as being his boyfriend..."
The fans at the scene were in high spirits and were talking excitedly.
The two commentators in the commentary box also excitedly commented on Chen Yan’s performance:
"The ultimate personal performance! Even double teams can't stop him! The University of Florida's defense seems to have no way to deal with him!" Mike Breen said.
"Although I admire Chen very much, I have to say that team basketball is the true meaning of basketball, and the team is the guarantee of victory. His goals are wonderful, but he can't play like this for every ball, let alone every ball.
All the goals were scored.”
Van Gundy deliberately played devil's advocate.
This is an old trick of commentators. Everyone supports a team and has some arguments and conflicts with each other, so that the game will be more enjoyable.
But Bald Man was really right this time, and Chen Yan also knew that he couldn't fight like this every round.
Not only the hit rate is lower than normal shots, but it also consumes a lot of physical energy.
In the next round, taking advantage of the University of Florida's coordination errors, Chen Yan made a quick move without the ball.
A diagonal movement directly took away three Florida defensive players. The scene was very exaggerated!
It seems that in the eyes of these people at the University of Florida, only Chen Yan is real, and the other Texas players are transparent people.
Seeing this scene, DJ Augustin burst out laughing and held the ball directly for a layup and easily scored two points.
Thanks to Florida Old Iron for the empty basket gift package!
In the next offensive round, Chen Yan gave the ball to DJ Augustin outside the three-point line at the moment when the double team was formed.
Augustin raised his knife in the open position and landed a three-pointer!
Score 5 points in a row!
Throughout March Madness, Augustin played the role of a tool man, which was not in line with previous scouts' expectations for him. Augustin actually has good scoring ability, but he was unable to do so in front of Chen Yan and Durant.
He needs to score too many points.
But when he needed to share the pressure for Chen Yan in this game, he stepped forward.
Chen Yan began to change his style of play in the next few minutes. He stretched the defense to the greatest extent, and even actively attracted many people to double-team to help his teammates!
He knows that everyone in Florida is watching him now.
There were 3 minutes and 05 seconds left before halftime, and the score was 48-42. Texas entered the TV timeout with a 6-point advantage.
During Durant's absence, Texas actually gained the lead, which many people did not expect.
After the timeout, Chen Yan came off the court to rest. Durant took off his pants. After resting for most of the quarter, he was finally going to appear!
Xiaoshuai looked at the scoreboard on the big screen with a smile.
I was idle for most of the quarter, but my teammates were still ahead in head count.
