I really can't handle the ball

Chapter 13 Unlimited Singles TJ Ford
"TJ is a little irrational. Faced with the opponent's three-team, he didn't choose to pass the ball, but forced a shot. This is very inefficient."

"Marquette University's defensive strategy was very successful. It induced TJ to come to the basket and then implement a siege, compressing his shooting space and passing space, forming a trapped beast."

The two commentators on the commentary booth, Mike Breen and Amy Johnson, expressed their views respectively.

On the field, TJ Ford, who wanted to fight back, didn't pay attention to the positioning of his teammates. He protruded too deep, blocked his vision, lost the passing space, and could only force the defensive player to layup.

He was smart enough not to shoot directly, but to do a pull-up move, evade Maynard's block, and then toss the ball.

It's just that TJ-Ford didn't understand the reason why the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind.

Clap!
Li Xuan, who came from the right side, took off vigorously, waved his long arms, and shot the rising basketball out of the bottom line.

In an instant, warm cheers and applause broke out in the auditorium, cheering for this wonderful defense.

After landing, Li Xuan smiled and gave his teammates high-fives to celebrate this successful defense.

This scene was seen by TJ-Ford, who was originally angry when he was blocked, but now it is even more fueled, and he can't help it.

So, he came to Li Xuan's side, and directly spat out trash talk: "If you're a man, come one-on-one, what's the point of a group of people targeting me!"

Li Xuan looked at the little man in front of him in bewilderment, and responded in a daze: "You don't know that! Basketball is a sport for five people. It's very reasonable for us to cooperate like this. Besides, being double-teamed against a superstar You should be honored to be treated!"

TJ-Ford was speechless, and he was very unwilling to say something, but was interrupted by the referee, who signaled the University of Texas to serve the baseline.

Due to the lack of offensive time, the University of Texas sent the ball to the outside, and Samoyed forced a shot against Wade's defense.

With a bang, strike with anger!
Maynard grabbed the rebound and passed it to Dinard to dribble forward, launching a defensive counterattack.

Wade and Li Xuan rushed forward from left to right, making the retreating players of the University of Texas not know which one to chase for a while.

Dinard dribbled across the half court and quickly passed the ball to Wade on the left front.

After Wade received the ball, he broke through to the free throw line and was double-teamed by two University of Texas players. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Li Xuan was unguarded and passed the ball through the gap.

Li Xuan in the bottom corner on the right received the basketball and saw TJ-Ford rushing to make up the defense. Without any hesitation, he jumped up and shot.

He is nearly 20cm taller than TJ-Ford.

This is only official data. From Li Xuan's perspective, it is speculated that TJ-Ford's height of 183 cm may be a little watery, and in all fairness it is less than 180 cm.

Such a height gap destined TJ-Ford to be unable to defend Li Xuan.

Swish!Hollow into the net!

10: 2!

The University of Texas head coach Rick Barnes on the sidelines immediately asked for a timeout when he saw that the situation on the court was not optimistic.

When all the players on the field returned to the bench, head coach Barnes immediately called TJ-Ford to his side and criticized loudly: "TJ, don't be dazzled by anger, don't go it alone blindly, play tactics, use speed Attack the inside, attract the defense to pass the ball, connect the team to attack, understand?"

"Understood, Coach!"

Seeing TJ-Ford's response, Barnes breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he still listened to the words, and then assigned tasks to other players.

"When TJ is double-teamed, step forward to respond in time, and move the fuck for me, don't stand still and wait for the ball."

"When there is an open space, make sure to shoot the ball, don't be twitchy like a pussy."

"Speed ​​up the speed of retreat, don't let Marquette University rush up, show your strength, don't let them play a defensive counterattack even if they foul."

After Barnes finished laying out the tactics, he asked the players to take the time to rest and get ready to play.

On the other side of Marquette University's bench, the head coach Klein did not relax because of the lead, and called the players together to arrange tactics.

"Lee's touch is hot at the beginning, try to create comfortable shooting opportunities for him, understand?"

"understand!"

Everyone responded in unison that they did not dare to disobey the head coach's order, and why not do it if someone leads them to lie down.

After arranging the tactics, Klein called Li Xuan to his side and said: "This is an opportunity for you, you must seize it, I believe you will not let me down, if the opportunity is not good, pass the ball to Dwyane and let him Handle the ball."

Li Xuan nodded to express his understanding.

If anyone knows the technical characteristics of players best, it is undoubtedly the team's head coach.

Through the previous training games, Klein knew that Li Xuan's attacking skills with the ball were very rough, so he deliberately arranged tactics to exploit his strength in shooting and cover up his weakness.

"I hope our opponents will find out later." Klein muttered softly.

The timeout ends and the game continues.

The University of Texas attacked, TJ-Ford broke through to attract the defense, and distributed the ball before Marquette University was not closed, and then after many passes, opportunities appeared.

Samoyed hit a mid-range jumper and recovered 2 points.

Marquette quickly served the ball, and Wade dribbled quickly to advance. Taking advantage of the unstable foothold of the University of Texas, he rushed to the basket to avoid the defender's block and scored 2 points.

Looking back, the University of Texas attacked, TJ-Ford dribbled the ball halfway to Samoyed, and then ran off the ball.

After being scolded by the head coach during the timeout, he gradually calmed down and thought about how to break the target. The best choice is not to take the ball, play off the ball, and use his other advantage-off the ball to cut .

On the field, TJ-Ford quickly cut into the three-second zone with the help of his teammate's off-ball cover, received a pass from Samoyed, took a step into the air, made a pull in the air to avoid the block, and wiped the board Score the ball.

After scoring the goal, TJ-Ford started chattering again, and when he retreated, he gave Li Xuan a provocative look, as if to say: "Boy, I have found a way to break the target, let's see what you do with me!"

Li Xuan and TJ-Ford looked at each other, and felt that this little man lacked the beatings of the society, so he decided to let him experience it again.

So, he called his teammates together, discussed with each other, and then returned to their posts.

Seeing this scene, TJ-Ford couldn't help but shudder, guessing that the players from Marquette University were plotting some kind of conspiracy against him, and retreated in a nervous mood.

After a while, Marquette University's offense quickly struck.

Dinard dribbled across the half court, handed the ball to Wade, and set a screen in advance near the three-second zone on the right as planned.

Li Xuan quickly ran without the ball. With the help of Dinard's screen, he got rid of his defender. After receiving a wonderful pass from Wade, TJ-Ford, who came to face the switch, directly pulled up and threw the basketball in his hand.

TJ-Ford struggled to jump up but failed to interfere with his shooting. The difference in height and wingspan is too great!
Without any suspense, the basketball entered the basket steadily, and the point difference was further widened.

In the next round, the University of Texas made a mistake in cooperation and failed to pass the ball to TJ-Ford, which was destroyed by Dinard's desperate defense.

The Golden Eagles seized the opportunity and quickly launched a defensive counterattack, creating misplaced opportunities for Li Xuan.

Li Xuan lived up to expectations and once again hit a mid-range jumper against TJ-Ford's defense.

After being successfully singled one after another, TJ-Ford gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. The gap in height and wingspan made him unable to defend at all.

Since there is no interference, then covertly raise your elbow and get started!
This is the small man's court survival law.

TJ-Ford made a good plan, the corners of his mouth raised and he was very excited. He came to the bottom line to catch the ball. This time, he must give the yellow boy a little color.
