Chapter 288 Find a way to detain him

Palisade High School called a timeout, and their main players returned to the court. The situation in the second half was beyond their expectations. The point difference was still huge, but the situation showed a tendency to reverse.

The Chinese boy on the opposite side is really fast, with great running positions, fast breaks, and dunks are even more outstanding, but it seems that he is not strong enough to turn the game over by himself.

The coach of Palisades High School is Al Newlin, a well-known high school coach in the Los Angeles area. He is particularly good at training inside players, although he himself plays a short guard.

Before Clifford came to Palisades High School, he was a jumper who could only jump up and down and rely on his physical fitness to play. There are a lot of jumpers in American high schools.

After Newlin's two years of training, Clifford has become an excellent rim protector and finisher, and is still making rapid progress and growth.

Newlin could see that this No. 18 kid was very destructive to the team on the field, he was very powerful in air cuts, he could grab rebounds, and he had no solution to the fast break. Obviously, he had undergone professional training.

Newlin thought that Clifford's entry could stop the little sports car from raging.

After the timeout ended, Lu Yuan saw Clifford standing with him on the court, and only then did he feel what a black tower was.

Clifford was tall and strong, with a thick frame, but his legs looked springy, and he was obviously capable of jumping.

In other words, he has the same strong body as Wang Yourong, and at the same time has the bounce and wingspan of Wang Yao. He is already well-known in the local basketball circle and is considered to be the next Dwight Howard.

Clifford put a lot of pressure on Wilson High School in the first half. Now that he is back on the court, Wilson's players are a little scared. In addition to scoring 25 points in the first half, he also sent 5 blocks, almost Wilson's men were stunned.

"Be careful, Clifford is a dangerous guy, don't act rashly."

Pan Sen reminded Lu Yuandao that this is the first time that Wilson's players have actively communicated with Lu Yuan. It can be seen that Lu Yuan is winning the trust of his teammates.

Lu Yuan nodded, just by looking at it, he knew that this Clifford was difficult to deal with, and he obviously felt that he was not on the same level as the others.

Moreover, the other main players of Palisades High School are back, and Lu Yuan feels that the field is crowded.

Carpenter continued to attack with the ball. This time he did not choose to do it by himself, but made a pick-and-roll with Clifford, and then lobbed the ball to the inside. Clifford went down to the inside, caught the ball, turned around and gave a light top. Just knocked Lin Bode away, and scored a slam dunk with both hands.

In the first half, Clifford scored countless points by relying on this trick, but in the second half, Wilson High School still couldn't do anything about him.When Wilson High School was attacking, when Lu Yuan tried to run through again, Clifford came up to him.

"Don't try to get points easily."

Clifford's voice was deep and hoarse, and he looked powerful. He always kept a distance of two steps from Lu Yuan, ensuring that he could defend at any time.

When he was off the court, Clifford had his eyes on Lu Yuan, and he wanted to show Lu Yuan some color when he came on the court, and he couldn't let him wander inside so easily to find a gap.

After Palisade High School's main players came on the field, their defensive strength also increased. They were taller and stronger in single defense. Pan Sen encountered trouble from the outside line. He was double-teamed and unstable with the ball.

It seemed that Palisades wanted to knock Wilson down completely, and the counterattack led by Lu Yuan angered them.

Lu Yuan hurried over to respond, and after receiving the ball, he suddenly accelerated and cut to the basket with his right side. All this went smoothly, the opponent didn't stop him, and let him rush to the basket directly.

Because Clifford was waiting for him inside.

Direct dialogue between Lu Yuan and Clifford!

Clifford calculated the step, and at the moment Lu Yuan took off, he jumped high, and Lu Yuan dodged Clifford in the air, and then wanted to change hands and lay up from the other side of the basket. 's forte.

Unexpectedly, Clifford was not inferior to Lu Yuan in the air. He slapped down with his left hand and knocked the ball out of Lu Yuan's hand!
Clifford showed strong jumping and wingspan. In China, opponents have nothing to do with a layup like Lu Yuan, but Clifford is different.

The ball rolled out of the bottom line, and the ball was still in the hands of Wilson High School, but this ball obviously gave Wilson High School and Lu Yuan a blow.

Subsequently, Wilson High School missed the offense, Clifford got the backcourt rebound, Palisade High School's counterattack came quickly, but Wilson High School's retreat was also timely.

When Carpenter dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Pan Sen and Lu Yuan flanked him and forced him to the dead corner of the center line. Carpenter had to pass the ball again, and their quick counterattack was destroyed.

At this time, Hart's arrangement during the timeout. Although Hart is a failed coach, he is not useless. He can see that the key to Palisades High School's offense in the first half is the combination of Carpenter and Clifford. Connection, since the inside line can't pinch Clifford, then make a fuss about Carpenter.

Hart could see that Lu Yuan was capable on the defensive end, with solid steps, speed, and quick reactions. He was a good quality for a defensive vanguard.

Letting him and Panson pinch Carpenter together did have a very good effect. Palisade High School's offensive rhythm was disrupted. They tried a three-pointer from the outside and failed to make it, but Clifford got the forward Field rebounds, ready to slam dunks under the basket.

But Lu Yuan rushed up from behind, and knocked down Clifford's ball from behind in the air!
"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, Lu Yuan hit Clifford with the ball, and he made a foul, but Lu Yuan's bravery won applause from the audience, it turned out that Clifford would be so deflated.

Clifford looked very angry, he said to Lu Yuan: "You'd better be careful."

When high school students play games, there is still relatively little trash talking. Clifford said that, and he was really angry.Although Lu Yuan made a foul, it was really strong, and Clifford felt very ashamed.

What's even more embarrassing is that he stood on the free throw line and missed two free throws. He deserves to be considered the next Dwight Howard.

This gave Wilson High School a chance to counterattack. They grabbed the rebound in the backcourt. Reluctant, he wanted to return one on Lu Yuantou.

The players returning to defense focused all their attention on Lu Yuan, and the three gathered towards him, but this time Lu Yuan didn't make a layup by himself, he turned around and passed the ball to the outside, to the team's fat small forward, Marin Noelle.

Noelle is a fat guy who likes to shoot three-pointers, but Hart's main purpose of keeping him on the court is because he can grab a few rebounds.

Noelle was slowly following the fast break. Although he knew that he had nothing to do with the fast break, he still had to go over and pretend to be involved. He didn't like fast break at all, and he was too tired to run.

But he didn't expect Lu Yuan to turn around and pass the ball. At this moment, he was standing outside the three-point line, two steps away from the three-point line, and the ball flew towards him.

As a fat man, Noelle received the ball very steadily, and passed the ball very well, and it landed in his hands with a "snap".

There was no one around, Noelle hesitated for 0.1 second, stood still and directly shot a three-pointer.

Noelle is thick and fat. This guy was able to enter the Wilson High School basketball team purely because he scored 15 three-pointers in a row in the team entrance examination. He was admitted by Hart because he was really lackluster in other aspects—— Said that he is Zhang Run from Wilson High School.

But the difference between him and Zhang Run is that he is really fat, but he is so fat that he stands two steps outside the three-point line, and he doesn't even need to jump when shooting. He just throws the ball out of his hands.

The ball flew to the basket like a cannonball, and then "swish", the ball went into the net.

This is the first three-pointer made by Wilson High School in this game. Noelle shook his shoulders and twisted his buttocks, looking very proud. He didn't have such a comfortable shooting space before, because he was too slow. The way to run out of the shooting space by yourself.

However, Lu Yuan's pass was just right. This is the "sweeping pot" pass method that Lu Yuan often used when he was in Lizhong. He went all the way to the basket, turned around and created shooting opportunities for Bai Ye or Zhang Run from the outside.

This three-pointer suddenly narrowed the point difference between the two sides to 32 points. Suddenly, the point difference was only one step away from thirty points.

Although more than six minutes have passed in the second half, even if Palisades High School does not score now, it will be difficult for Wilson High School to win, but the morale of the team is getting stronger and stronger, which can be seen from the emotions of the audience on the sidelines , everyone began to watch the game seriously.

Coach Hart stopped standing on the sidelines like a walking dead, but started clapping, yelling, and directing players like a normal coach.

Lu Yuan's performance is inspiring. If Gao Jing is on the sidelines, he will definitely be moved. Lu Yuan is such a magical existence. He is very strong, but limited by the time he has been in contact with basketball, his strength is limited.But he has a unique gravitational force on the court, which can make everyone else play, and he can lead a team alive in his own way.

Now, the players from Wilson High School are all thinking of reducing the point difference to less than 30 points. The atmosphere of the game suddenly became tense, and the confrontation between the two sides suddenly became fierce.

The core players on both sides began to be strictly defended. In order to prevent Clifford from scoring, the inside line of Wilson High School began to foul; and Lu Yuan was also targeted strongly—he was facing a tall white player with long arms and defensive skills. The methods were very tough, and the insider Clifford paid more attention to him, Lu Yuan was immediately frozen.

The two sides fell into a stalemate. In 2 minutes, the score did not change. At this time, Hart called a timeout.

This turned out to be the first timeout that Hart called in this game, because he didn't think it was necessary to call a timeout before, and calling it was for nothing.

Now, he thinks it is necessary to give some guidance to the players, but he didn't draw tactics or make personnel adjustments, just to have a word with Lu Yuan.

"Lu, think of a way, rush to the inside and dunk him!"

Hatra said to him through Lu Yuan, the "he" in his mouth naturally refers to Clifford.
