Chapter 43 Double Guns
"Defense! Defense!"
When the Marquette University players retreated to the half court, the cheers at the scene also turned into the shouts of the defense.
The momentum was overwhelming, and the atmosphere at home was completely ignited by Butler's shot just now.
It can be clearly felt that the entire defensive intensity of Marquette University has been raised.
Butler's mental attributes are simply outrageous.
Concordia came back from a timeout to attack Lamb, but Butler stuck close to Lamb like a candy bar. The latter didn’t get a chance to go around the pick-and-roll in a row. In the end, his shot after barely receiving the ball was disturbed and he didn’t make a shot.
The scene burst into cheers.
Kangda has Tang Tian, and they have Butler!
Fighting personal defense, they are not afraid!
"Come on! Golden Eagles!"
The fans at the scene began to actively cheer for the team, and Marquette University is really going to take off!
Butler continued to play Tang Tian in the low position. The ball just now gave him a lot of confidence.
He turned his back to fight and turned to shoot. When he made the shot, he felt that he had not completely gotten rid of Tang Tian, and he was already aiming for the rebound in the next second.
But as soon as the ball left his hand, a hand appeared above his head.
"Snapped!"
Tang Tian summed up the experience of the last ball. This time, he saw the opportunity to block the shot, and he did not give Butler a chance to grab the second offensive rebound.
With a big hat covering his face once, Tang Tian took advantage of the situation to grab the ball.
Butler reacted and pounced, but Tang Tian had already thrown the ball to Napier.
Napier had the ball in control, and Marquette's attack came back in vain.
There was a commotion at the scene.
Tang Tian's block and snatch are textbooks, and Marquette University's hard-earned momentum was curbed.
Napier was not in a hurry to break fast, and slowly passed the half court with the ball.
Concordia played tactics again in the frontcourt, and Lamb was still closely guarded by Butler.
But at this moment, Tang Tian also interspersed from the bottom corner on the left to the 45-degree angle on the right, and ran out of the three-point gap with Oriaqi's pick-and-roll.
Butler was mainly defending Lamb, and Lamb's movement also hindered Marquette University's defense. Tang Tian's movement at this time became somewhat unattended.
This is the defensive level of the average NCAA team. It has a defensive focus, but it is generally difficult to do both. This is one of the reasons why Duke and Kentucky are strong because they have too many NBA-level players, and their opponents often Will take care of one and the other.
Napier is far less aggressive than Walker, but his passing level is better. He quickly found Tang Tian and threw his hand out.
Tang Tian did not hesitate to catch the ball, and directly raised his hand to make a three-point shot.
The release of the ball is extremely soft, and the arc after the release is also quite perfect.
"Shh!"
With a crisp sound, Tang Tian hit Kangda's first three-pointer of the game!
12 to 6, Kangda has a 6-point lead!
The scene was restless, the momentum that was about to rise was half pressed by Tang Tian's block, and then poured by the three-pointer, it was completely destroyed!
The bench at Concordia was a burst of excited whistles and cheers.
The team's morale has been frustrated by the past three-game losing streak, but this game has brought back the lost morale!
There was no cheering from the audience, but Tang Tian's attack and defense just now significantly improved Kang's defensive intensity on the field.
Butler encountered Tang Tian's strict prevention and had no chance. Napier's pass was predicted by Napier and was directly stolen.
After Napier's steal, he played a defensive counterattack, and both Lamb and Tang Tian followed up immediately.
Tang Tian stopped at the three-point line in advance, Butler defended the past, and Napier made a beautiful back pass to Lamb who followed up on the other side.
Lamb also stopped outside the 3-point line, and after a fake shot swooped down on his defender, he shot a 3-pointer.
This was his third 3-pointer of the game, and he failed to make the first two shots.
The arc after the ball is released is very good.
"Shh!"
With a crisp sound, the ball directly hollowed into the net.
First a breakthrough, then a drop shot, then a mid-range, now a three-pointer, Lamb is all open!
"Beautiful!" Ollie couldn't help getting up from the bench at this time, throwing a fist and shouting.
He really likes Lamb like this!
Walker also smiled at this time.
As everyone knows, Lamb's talent is good, and his ten-game winning streak was good, but it always felt like something was missing.
I didn't feel it before, but now I found out that it is the ability to carry, that is, the core responsibility.
Now that Lamb has this kind of responsibility, he is completely out.
When he comes back, Concord University will have two offensive strengths, plus Tang Tian, a top 3D player, they will really be able to compete with super famous schools like Kentucky, Duke, and North Carolina.
It seems that his injury is not entirely a bad thing.
Of course, he also knew that all this was due to Tang Tian's credit. The development of good or bad things may be a momentary thing. Tang Tian's previous violent attempt turned things that had turned bad abruptly.
Such teammates really can't find them with a lantern.
The game on the field continued, and Allen finally made a mid-range jumper to stop the bleeding for Marquette University.
But looking back, Tang Tian got another chance on the outside. He also showed the accuracy he had against George Town before, raising his hand and scoring a three-pointer.
Butler was extremely uncomfortable at this time.
He went to guard Tang Tian and Lamb scored, he went to guard Lamb and Tang Tian scored.
In the case of Kangda, Lamb and Tang Tian felt like they were shooting two shots on the outside. It was not suitable for him to guard against anyone!
In the end, although Butler did his best on the defensive end and kept trying to encourage his teammates, Lamb was in good shape this game, and coupled with Tang Tian's restraint on the outside, Marquette University never failed to turn over.
70 to 60, Concordia won Marquette University away, ending a three-game losing streak.
The ten-game winning streak started at Marquette University, and the three-game losing streak ended here at Marquette University. Concordia has really become the bitter master of Marquette University.
At Marquette University, Butler scored 20 points and 6 rebounds, and made only 6 of 22 shots. It was difficult for him to play under Tang Tian's defense, let alone put so much energy on the defensive end in this game. .
On Concordia’s side, Oriarch had an excellent performance of 10 points, 15 rebounds and 2 blocks, and Napier also had a good performance with 8 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, but Concordia can win the game tonight or rely on the double guns of Tang Tian and Lamb. .
Tang Tian made 5 of 7 shots from the outside and scored 15 points, 5 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks, while Lamb made 11 of 20 shots and 2 of 6 three-pointers, scoring a game-high 26 points and 5 rebounds.
After the game, the University of Concord players couldn't help shouting as they walked to the locker room.
The taste of losing streak is not good, but the feeling of ending the losing streak is quite refreshing!
