I'm not really a role player

Chapter 19 Xiao Du's Solo Performance

"Another brilliant comeback as Sheldon Lee tore through the North Carolina Tar Heels!"

Swish!
Li Ke, who received the ball and was unguarded, easily sent the ball into the basket.

Scoring consecutively, the University of Texas also pulled 6 points in a row. So far, they are only 1 point behind.

Roy Williams felt the crisis. Since Li Ke came on the field, the University of Texas' defense has returned to its rock-solid state in the first half. Tyler Hansbrough seems to have met his nemesis. The former NCAA offensive killer has directly become a sand sculpture. Staying on the court is simply a side effect.

On the defensive end, Li Ke's sudden air-cut scoring has already hit North Carolina three times in a row.

If there is another record, North Carolina's lead will be wiped out.

Although, the so-called lead is only a pitiful 1 point.

With a difference of 1 point, if North Carolina still fails to score in the next round, it will be difficult to say who is leading the game until now.

Seeing this, Roy Williams immediately called a timeout.

"Brandon, for the next game, your position has to shrink inward..."

In order to deal with Xiaodu's outside shots, North Carolina's defensive formation was on the outside throughout the game.

But now, Li Ke's air cut forced North Carolina to shrink its defense.

Along with this tactical adjustment, North Carolina made another substitution, Taylor Hansbrough was replaced again.

"Taylor Hansbrough sat on the bench again, which means that North Carolina has conceded defeat. Roy Williams no longer thinks Taylor Hansbrough can get back to his proper state."

In fact, for North Carolina, if Hansbrough stays on the court, it may still be able to contain Li Ke's defense.

Once Hansbrough is off the court, Li Ke's single defense will threaten other North Carolina players.

But there is no way, Hansbrough is an offensive player, and his defense is very average. Now that he can't attack and defend, he might as well replace it.

But without Hansbrough's restraint, it was Rayshaun Terry who suffered the most.

After the timeout, Li Ke faced Ray Sean Terry again.

Although Li Ke made some defensive mistakes against Ray Shaun Terry at the beginning of the second half, but in the subsequent games, even when he was not facing Ray Sean Terry, Li Ke made some observations intentionally or unintentionally.

He already has a general understanding of Rayshaun Terry's style and characteristics, and the defensive end is impeccable.

For North Carolina, they desperately need to score.

But in the face of the rejuvenated defense of the University of Texas, the zone defense is impenetrable, and the single defense can't make any mistakes.

North Carolina, which couldn't find a chance, consumed a full 30 seconds of attack time. In the end, Wayne Ellington hit the frame with a heavy iron.

Connor Archie snatches the rebound roaring.

Going back to the offensive end, North Carolina really shrunk its defense, but Li Ke's air cuts were still extremely threatening. With three or two hits, North Carolina's defense formation was turned upside down.

Xiao Du on the outside quickly found an opportunity and hit a three-pointer that was barely disturbed.

"KD, hit a three-pointer!"

"The University of Texas overtook the score!"

At this time, there were only more than 2 minutes left before the end of the game.

North Carolina's offense is still struggling. Ty Lawson's breakthrough was blocked, and he made a mid-range shot halfway, which slammed into the frame and missed.

Xiao Du grabbed the rebound and immediately hit a counterattack. During the counterattack, he made a jumper with an emergency stop and scored 2 points.

It seems that Roy Williams' adjustments to Li Ke actually gave Xiaodu enough space.

Little Dulian scored 5 points and took off all at once.

"lose..."

On the court, Xiao Du scored another three-pointer, already scoring 8 points in a row.

Roy Williams shook his head, he knew very well that the victory of this match had already said goodbye to him.

There is just one thing, Xiaodu can't continue to score like this, he has to find a way.

I scanned the group of five on the field, but found nothing.

Then I scanned the field again, Danny Green?

"Maybe it's just him."

In this way, Danny Green, who has not been reused in the new season, was replaced by Roy Williams when North Carolina's defeat was set.

As soon as Danny Green came on the court, Xiao Du's shot hit the iron.

It's not that Xiao Du didn't make the shot himself, but that Danny Green sealed Xiao Du's face tightly with his right hand.

This kind of defense made Roy Williams's eyes light up off the field.

But then, after Xiao Du figured out Danny Green's defensive characteristics, he immediately leaned on his long arms and scored another goal.

"With 2 more points, Kevin Durant has already scored 31 points in his NCAA debut, oh my god! Is this the talent of the second person in high school? I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's Ohio State game against UCLA."

Off the court, Roy Williams shook his head.

Danny Green only defended for one round, and then was beaten by Xiao Du again, but this is not Danny Green's fault. After all, Danny Green is only 1 meters. It is really difficult for him to defend Xiao Du, whose real height is 98 meters.

Thinking of this, he set his eyes on Li Ke.

At this moment, he was a little jealous of Li Ke.

The last two minutes or so of the game was Xiao Du's performance alone. He scored all kinds of heads-ups, and his personal score rose all the way to 37 points.

The game, also in the roar of the timer, was declared over.

At 86:71, the University of Texas at Austin, the Horns, defeated the University of North Carolina Tar Heels in an away game amidst the unfavorable voices before the game.

As soon as the game was over, the exhausted Li Ke and Xiao Du clapped their hands.

Then, Xiao Du went to find Ty Lawson on the opposite side.

Li Ke didn't follow, because he could think of what Xiao Du would say with his ass, and it was nothing more than: Xiaotai, it turns out that my choice was the right one.

He stood on the sidelines and searched around, and found Danny Green.

"Hi Danny, I, Sheldon Lee..."

"I know you, Sheldon, you guarded Taylor to death in this game."

"Haha, actually, what I want to say is that if you are not facing KD who is [-] feet tall and pretends to be [-] feet [-] feet, but you are facing Tyler Hansbrough who is really only [-] feet [-] feet tall, you can also do defense like me."

The two seemed to be complimenting each other, but Taylor Hansbrough, who was standing aside, found that he seemed to be lying down with a gun.

At the same time, scouts, commentators, and media reporters on the sidelines of the game are summarizing the game.

Among them, the summary of the CBS commentary duo is just right.

"Before the game, in terms of strength on paper, North Carolina seemed to have won without a doubt, but at the start of the game, two accidents made the University of Texas turn the tables."

"The first accident, Sheldon Lee, who was not ranked in high school and had no star ratings, suddenly rose to the defense and killed North Carolina's top player Tyler Hansbrough, and in the second half of the game, he scored consecutively with air cuts."

"The second accident, Kevin Durant, the second player in high school, played a phenomenal personal performance in this game. He scored 37 points in his debut. He seems to be contributing to the scoring performance of the greatest big man in NCAA history..."

There is no doubt that Xiao Du received the most compliments.

37 points in the first show, 11 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Singles, three-pointers, mid-range shots, and breakthroughs seem to be omnipotent.

In this game, Xiao Du was like an offensive machine, scoring consecutively.

As the commentator said, this is the greatest scoring performance of a big man in the history of the NCAA.
