Chapter 103 Evolved Walker
Concordia fans whistled.
They saw a different Walker on the defensive end in the second half, and now the familiar Walker on the offensive end has finally appeared!
Coach K was relieved to see this.
Owen's performance in the second half was not as good as in the first half, which was inseparable from Walker's full-scale pressing. Now that Walker has to score and defend again, his physical strength will definitely not be able to keep up. Walker is the absolute core of Concordia University. When it is impossible to attack and defend, Duke wins the game with ease.
Duke's offense, Irving took the ball to the frontcourt.
At this moment, the fans of the University of Kangxi burst into a whistle.
Coach K was also stunned for a moment.
The defender in front of Owen was neither Walker nor Lamb, but Tang Tian!
It turns out that the lineup of the University of Concord to go to Orland and go to Smith at the last moment is to make Tang Tian and Owen take the top spot!
Let the 4 guard the 1?
Coach K can't understand Kahun's operation a little bit. Although Tang Tian's defensive ability is very good, he can defend the third and fourth positions, but Owen is the No. 1 position and is famous for his breakthrough and dribbling.
It's like hitting a mosquito with a hammer, it's totally out of tune!
Singler's side also has an advantage against Lamb, but Owen chose to attack by himself.
Consecutively changing directions in advance, Owen swooped in directly.
However, he soon found that he underestimated Tang Tian. Tang Tian had a pre-judgment and stepped back to grab a position.
Although there is a gap in speed, this prediction successfully bridges the gap.
There was a burst of cheers from the Kangda fans at the scene.
No matter what position they are, Tang Tian's defense is invincible in their eyes, and this confrontation between the two sides completely verified what they thought.
Irving didn't stop the ball. After pulling the ball back with a crotch, he changed direction directly from the inside to the outside.
Too close, Tang Tian was flashed by Owen.
Sure enough, although Tony Allen's individual defensive skills have improved his speed to a certain extent, the difference in weight still makes it difficult for him to guard Irving's breakthrough at close range.
This is also something he needs to focus on after the draft is over. When it comes to the NBA, whether to gain weight and play a forward swingman, or lose weight to play a forward and guard swingman.
Passed by Owen, Tang Tian didn't give up his defense and still chased after him.
Owen passed Tang Tian to the basket and made a quick shot.
Tang Tian jumped up from behind to cover.
Owen's lever in the air dodged.
Tang Tian's block was not just a simple block, but also reached out to cover Owen's shot angle.
Irving's pull-rod was very wide. After all, he just came back from injury, and he was lower in the air than normal. After the ball was shot, it hit the edge of the basket and popped out.
Oriarch grabbed the defensive rebound.
The University of Konan fans cheered again.
Although he was passed by Owen, Tang Tian was still Tang Tian. After chasing to the basket, he still defended Owen!
Coach K's expression was also stunned.
Tang Tian, can you really defend against Owen?
The answer is no, but if Owen only breaks through, Tang Tian's restrictive effect on him is indeed obvious.
"Kyrie, shoot more." Coach K's response was really quick, and when Irving returned to half court, he opened his mouth to remind.
Concord University's offense, the same tactics, Irving squeezed through ahead of time this time and didn't give a change, Auriarch's pick-and-roll was unsuccessful.
Walker directly motioned Oriarch to go back, sinking his weight and facing Owen.
Irving had hit him so many times before, and it was his turn to pay one more.
Before the game started, as he had shown when communicating with Tang Tian, he felt that he was inferior to Owen.
But what happened to Owen after the game was played, he was also very embarrassed to be defended by him!
With a low change of direction, a sudden step up, Owen followed Walker, but after the confrontation, he was directly knocked off by Walker!
The referee didn't blow the whistle, it was a normal physical confrontation.
Walker used his explosiveness and confrontation to squeeze past Owen to the inside, and a lever in the air evaded Plumlee's help defense and made a layup!
After the goal, Walker roared in the sky, and the veins on his neck burst out.
Finally, he passed Owen too!
The cheers of the fans at the University of Concordia were deafening. Walker was passed by Owen again and again in the first half, to defending Owen in the second half, and then successfully playing Owen in reverse. This is simply an evolution in one game!
A stronger opponent can inspire a stronger self. This wise saying is true!
The scouts on the scene couldn't help but whisper at this time. In addition to seeing Walker's progress, they also saw spiritual things. This is the temperament that a team leader can have.
I may be weaker than you, but I will do my best to beat you!
When Walker returned to defense, Tang Tian and Walker clapped hard.
"Kenny, I suddenly think what you said makes sense." Barkley turned to Smith at this time.
Smith looked at him suspiciously.
"This Connecticut team is really different, this Kemba Walker, and this Don, they are full of energy, they are players who have a chance to create miracles," Barkley said.
Smith nodded with a smile, his eyes on the players are still very accurate, Barkley bickered with him for most of the time, and now he admits it.
Owen continued to single against Tang Tian in the frontcourt, a Sam Gold, and he continued to pass Tang Tian, but Tang Tian was chasing after him as before. He grabbed the basket and shot ahead to avoid Tang Tian's interference, But Auriarch's front and back attack directly blocked his shot!
The emotions of the UConn fans on the scene were completely ignited. Although they were at a disadvantage in number, their emotions were obviously more excited than the Duke fans.
The difference of 20 points is only 4 points in a blink of an eye, and Irving is also covered!
The dark clouds over their heads in the first half have dissipated, and they have seen the dawn of victory!
Duke's sideball came out, and Irving turned and changed direction.
"Snapped!"
This time Tang Tian seized the opportunity and slammed his hand, breaking the ball in Owen's hand!
Often standing by the river, how can there not be wet shoes!
Owen can now pass Tang Tian seven or eight times ten times, but the remaining two or three times are likely to be broken!
After Tang Tian made the steal, he threw the ball to Walker on the outside. Walker turned around and passed Smith and rushed forward. The two rushed from the backcourt to the frontcourt.
Walker hit a low layup in the frontcourt, and Smith jumped to block.
Walker changed hands and pulled the lever directly in the air, dodged and then shot.
"Snapped!"
Smith slapped Walker on the arm.
The bottom line referee blew the whistle to signal the thugs to commit a foul.
Walker's lever ball hits the backboard after a mid-air spin, then rubs into the net.
2+1!
Walker was knocked out of the field by Smith, and after using the buffer to protect himself, when he looked back and saw that the ball was scored, he jumped up from the ground and jumped excitedly.
Crazy!
