NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 35

A timeout did not solve the embarrassing situation of Ohio State's weak offense and weak defense.

Back from the timeout, Duke blasted another 13:5 attack wave.

In just 8 minutes of the game, the Buckeyes had been beaten by the Blue Devils by 14 points.

NCAA games enter the TV timeout every 4 minutes, and this time is the second TV timeout in the opening game.

"The current score is 19:5, and there are still 32 minutes left in the game. Jeff, as a student of Yale University, you must be good at math. You can calculate how many points Duke can lead." Brin asked Van Gundy a math problem.

"Hey, I've only been at Yale for a year, and I'm a graduate of Nazarene College.

14 times 5, 60 points.Of course, the final score difference cannot be calculated in this way. "Jr. Van Gundy quickly came up with the answer under refutation.

"Chen Xiao scored 19 of Duke's 13 points by himself. He is in a hot state today." Brin looked at the current data and said with emotion.

Little Van Gundy chuckled: "Maybe it's because Chen Xiao has really understood his level, and he's ready to kill."

"Yes, NBA-level centers can't stop him, let alone college players."

Pause back again.

Ohio State's frontcourt.

After the players crossed and ran, Thomas got the chance to catch the ball from the bottom corner.

After receiving the ball, he scored a three-pointer against Miles Plumlee.

However, it is clear that the overall style of the Buckeyes players is not going well today, "Kang", it is another piece of fine iron.

Chen Xiao under the basket lowered his center of gravity, caught Salinger behind him, relaxed his arms, and took off the rebound.

He raised his elbow to scare away the Ohio State players who wanted to reach out, and protected the back of the rebound.

After handing the ball to Curry, Chen Xiao made a pick-and-roll 3-point signal.

When Curry took the ball beyond the three-point line, Chen Xiao immediately turned back from the free throw line, stood with both feet, and made a solid pick-and-roll.

Curry pulls the ball to the right, gets an open shot, pulls up and shoots.

Chen Xiao didn't choose to stop and watch, or directly return to defense.

Instead, he sprinted inside while Salinger pounced outwards before turning around.

I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, the ball hit the front of the basket and bounced forward. Chen Xiao shook off the huge Salinger, jumped up, and scored with both hands.

On the way back to defense, Chen Xiao touched the back of Seth Curry's head and said that the fake shot was really good.

At this time, Salinger was already a little out of breath. He was not physically strong enough, and he was dragging a lot of weight, and Chen Xiao kept running around. He was really tired.

Seeing that Smith signaled him to come up for the pick-and-roll again, Salinger's heart broke down, and he decided not to leave.

Hey, I don't pick and roll, I have to play by myself.Sulinger raised his hand, motioning for him to pass the ball.

Chen Xiao didn't interfere too much with Salinger's receiving the ball this time. After all, with the sound of panting, what's the point of letting him catch the ball?
As a center forward, Chen Xiao also prefers to defend alone, rather than going out to defend pick-and-rolls.

After the opening, Salinger finally got the ball in the paint in a serious manner, waved the basketball twice, and signaled his teammates to pull away.

Seeing that Salinger was posing for singles, Chen Xiao wrapped one hand around the ball and blocked the shooting angle with the other.

Sullinger lowered his body, released the ball, engaged his hips, and pushed his back back.

It has to be said that the huge buttocks are an artifact of inside players.

Although Salinger's strength is not better than Chen Xiao's, he relies on his stocky body and hips, as well as good force-exerting skills.Salinger still opened up the space.

Salinger, who had eaten the hot pot, did not choose to turn over and shoot, but turned to the outside, and then jumped to gain space for the shot.

Finally bypassing Chen Xiao, Salinger, who was about to make a move, suddenly felt that his hand was empty.

It turned out that Curry, who was behind Chen Xiao, used his blind spot to suddenly break out and stab the ball.

The ball flew into the hands of Thomas, who was facing Chen Xiao and beyond the three-point line.

Even though Chen Xiao was some distance away from Thomas, Chen Xiao still raised his hands to attack.

Facing Chen Xiao, who came to defend him, Thomas played the spirit of daring to make a shot and scored a three-pointer angrily.

"哐", the wonderful sound of iron striking, symbolizes that a piece of high-quality refined iron has been released.

After losing the ball, Sulinger, who was still standing in the penalty area, was a blessing in disguise and grabbed the rebound.

Facing the defenders one behind the other, Salinger waved his elbow to force the defender back to gain space for the ball.

The ball hit Mason Plumlee, the defender in front of him, and got up to put the basket.

Chen Xiao, who rushed back to the penalty area after Thomas made up "Boom", made a volleyball smash and blasted the ball that hadn't reached the highest point.

Seeing that the ball was about to fall into the basket, it was hit by Chen Xiao again.

Salinger said I was tired, give me the ball, I want to go home.

In less than half time, he had already taken Chen Xiao's hat.

Every hit cost him both physical strength and morale.

His morale has collapsed and he has no intention of fighting again.

In the subsequent games, Ohio State also gradually lost its ability to resist, and Duke University did not choose to kill them all.

The final score was 79:41, and Duke University beat Ohio State by nearly twice the score.

Facing the zone defense, Chen Xiao not only did not show a decline in performance, but instead handed in a perfect score.

18次出手16中，罚球7罚6中，总计38分17篮板9盖帽，仅差一记盖帽就能拿下盖帽三双。

If achieved, it would be the first blocked triple-double performance in March Madness history.

Chen Xiao also wanted to build another one, not for the data, but just for the feeling of flying the ball vigorously.

After all, waving your palms and knocking off offensive players' basketball dreams is really cool.

But in the latter part of the game, Sullinger basically stopped attacking, and other Ohio State players also ran away from him. Even if he wanted to brush the cap, he couldn't brush it.

"The early stage was brilliant, but the final stage of the Southern District finals came to an end. Some games were actually over in 10 minutes, but the referee only blew the whistle for the end of the game after an hour." Breen concluded after the game.

"Yes, if you are a Duke fan, please enjoy this wonderful night; if you are a neutral fan, you only need to watch the first 10 minutes of this game; if you are a fan of Ohio State, you should not turn on the TV at all." Little Van Gundy suggested to the fans in front of the screen seriously.

"You're a commentator, Jeff. If the fans don't watch it, who will pay us?" Brin pretended to complain.

Van Gundy smiled slightly: "But no one can travel through time and space to see the direction or result of the game in advance. The charm of basketball games is exactly the same.

Welcome everyone to continue to lock ESPN. On the last day of March, Mike and I will bring you the NCAA Final Four. "

"You stole my lines, Jeff. Welcome everyone to continue to lock ESPN, thank you." Brin finally delivered a speech, ending the live commentary of the game.
