The Overlord of Basketball: 2K Possession

Chapter 40 UCLA's Tactical Choices
I saw Collison facing the basket, and first made a fake shot, which directly tricked Hollins.

I have to say that Hollins really flies at one point, and technical players like to hit this kind of jumper.

Collison immediately received the ball and broke forward, then turned back, easily shook Hollins, and hit a jumper.

This set of coherent movements seems very simple, but don't forget that Collison is a big man with a height of more than 210cm.

It has to be said that after four years of college career, Collison has reached the peak state.

"Come on, Kansas!"

"Beat LA."

……

The wonderful footsteps just now caused a burst of cheers from the audience, and Collison was also enjoying his glory.

"Nick, hurry back to defense!"

It's a pity that all this was broken by a shout in an instant, and when he looked up, it was Kirksinrich.

Looking at it again, UCLA has served quickly, and Hollins, who is also a center, has already run halfway.

Chen Mo, who was attracting the defense from beyond the three-point line, suddenly went in from a diagonal stab, and Cedric's pass was just right.

Chen Mo's move obviously attracted Wayne Ximing's defense, not to mention Kapono's restraint.

At this time, Collison, who was too late to defend, had completely missed Hollins.

Hinrich wanted to make up the defense, but unfortunately, Chen Mo didn't give him a chance at all, and directly threw the ball high up.

In the three-second zone, Hollins jumped high, caught the ball with both hands and slammed it into the basket.

4:2
"Wow, what a fast attack, what a wonderful attack, from serve to goal, 7 seconds?"

Mike Brin sincerely praised, in fact, facing such a wonderful basketball, no one can dislike it.

Some people may not like this tactic, maybe defense can win the championship, but such a wonderful offense can win the audience.

If it is said that before, Mike Brin only chose to support UCLA in order to find a balance.

So now, Mike Brin feels that he has almost become a UCLA fan.

Although Danny Manny is from Kansas, he has to admit it at this time.

"UCLA's game is really good, they play too fast."

"That's right, I've heard that UCLA's offensive rhythm is very fast, but I didn't expect it to be so fast!"

The NBA shot clock is 24 seconds, while the NCAA shot clock is 35 seconds.

But UCLA, every time they attack the mayor, it takes about 10 seconds, or even only 7 seconds.

It can be said that UCLA is subverting the traditional way of playing basketball.

"It seems that Chen's idea is correct."

Seeing the success of this attack, Coach Steve couldn't help but feel a little satisfied, especially for Chen Mo.

In Steve's eyes, Chen Mo is not only a talented player, but also a talented coach.

Maybe it's weird for a teenager to be called a coach, but Steve really thinks so.

This matter started three days ago. The game between UCLA and the University of Kansas was about to start, and Steve was working out the tactics for this game.

At the beginning, Steve's idea, like most coaches, was to double-team Collison.

After all, although it is now the last glory of the center era, with the Lakers three consecutive championships, there is still a market for the center to win the championship.

It can be said that whether it is the NBA or the entire American basketball world, there are some superstitions about powerful centers.

Nick Collison is one of the most powerful centers in the NCAA today, and the teams naturally pay a lot of attention to him.

Facing the University of Kansas, more teams set their sights on Collison.

After all, the closer to the basket, the higher the scoring efficiency. This is an iron fact, and it is not a mistake to defend the inside.

But the problem is that if he strangled the inside line, he couldn't strangle Kirk Hinrich, and the game would still be lost.

Steve LaVine is worried that UCLA will follow the path of other teams.

At night, when the tactics were formulated, there was a sudden sound of basketball in the arena, and it was easy to know who it was without looking.

At this time, apart from Chen Mo, no one else will come to practice.

Even, in order to save trouble, the person in charge of the basketball hall directly gave Chen Mo a key to the basketball hall.

Chen Mo can come to the basketball hall for training at any time, which is his privilege as the core of the team.

Regarding the formulation of tactics, Steve still hesitated.

Don't look at UCLA's smooth sailing now, and the media is constantly touting them.

However, Steve also knows that the media and reporters have no morals, and once the team loses, they will immediately pounce on it.

Especially in a place like Los Angeles, the criticism from the media will inevitably bring enormous pressure.

The more this is the case, the more careful we have to be, so Steve is more cautious.

At this time, Chen Mo's sudden appearance gave Steve an idea.

How about asking Chen Mo?
You know, although UCLA's current fast-paced offensive style originated from Steve, it was Chen Mo who really expressed this idea first.

The team's lineup left Steve with no more choices. Unexpectedly, the bombardment tactics became UCLA's life-saving medicine.

Steve is not the kind of young man who can't lose face, he does what he thinks, so he approached Chen Mo.

"Chen, what do you think we should do in the face of the University of Kansas?"

Chen Mo is a little confused, you are the coach, what should I do if you ask me?
Coach Steve said bluntly: "I have considered a lot of tactics, whether it is against Nick or against Koke, it seems that the chance of winning is not great."

Hearing that winning is a bit difficult, Chen Mo immediately paid attention, after all, this game is a key game.

Double the skill points, you can't lose no matter what.

Chen Mo is not a professional coach, so naturally he doesn't know too many tactics.

But having watched too many games, he can tell one, two, three when facing different teams.

For example, at the University of Kansas, although Kirksinrich is the core of the team, the core of tactics is Collison.

Whether as the starting point of tactics, or the end point, Hinrich and Collison will always form an echo.

If you want to say which NBA team the University of Kansas is like, apart from strength, they are most like the Lakers.

A complete and mature inside and outside core, who can play singles or cooperate.

Facing such a team with mature tactics, it is really not so easy to deal with.

Fortunately, Nick Collison is not O'Neal, and Hinrich is not Kobe, otherwise there is no need to fight at all.

"Coach, I think, instead of trying to limit Collison and Hinrich, it's better to play to our strengths."

It's not that Collison and Hinrich can't limit it, but the price they paid is too high, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"Play to our strengths?"

After all, Steve LaVine is a professional coach. Hearing what Chen Mo said, he immediately understood.

What are the advantages of UCLA?
Attack, the quickest attack!

To put it in more detail, it is to quickly switch between offense and defense, taking advantage of the opponent's unsteady foothold to shoot cold arrows, so as to increase the success rate of the attack.
