The Legend of Small Steel Cannons in the NBA

Chapter 96 Make a sin!
March 21, an ordinary day, but not ordinary in the eyes of basketball fans, the NCAA tournament is in full swing, especially St. Joseph.After decades, their team has finally made a breakthrough and has come to the stage of competing for the top sixteen.

Connecticut Center Arena, the arena is very noisy, people put labels on themselves that belong to their support team, the sails and flags are fluttering, the banners are segmented, and the shouts and calls are connected together.Basketball is a sport suitable for all ages, especially college basketball. Everyone crosses races, colors, genders, ages, occupations, and everything that can be crossed. Gather together to cheer, to honor, and to Spiritual belief!But there is no way to surpass the color of the label. The two colors of white and blue in the venue are straight and distinct, and they are out of place.The slogan of the white team is "Taming the Pony from Philadelphia" with great momentum, while the slogan of the blue team is "Catch the fat and delicious wild white-fronted raccoon in the jungle", dancing wildly.

ESPN once again chose to broadcast this game live, which is a signal that this game is extremely eye-catching.It is more likely that St. Joseph's got Connecticut's glory, and in any case, it's all about tonight.The top [-], for St. Joseph, represents an unprecedented success, but for Connecticut, it is just on the way!With such different expectations, the competition officially began.

Connecticut went straight to the top three in the starting lineup, plus Rudy and Chelsea, just to bully the Yale team with three-pointers.St. Joseph's lineup remains unchanged, and Smith's return still gives Matterly a little more confidence.

Smith still couldn't reach the jump ball. Chelsea had the ball halfway and handed it to Boone. It was Kelly who wanted him to bully his opponent.The gap in height, weight and strength is obvious, and Kelly has become Connecticut's breakthrough.The difference between this game and the last one is that Smith is back, Smith is also tall, he can deal with Armstrong perfectly, plus Kelly, who is excellent in top defense, stares at Boone, Larry defends Villanueva though He was at a disadvantage, but he barely qualified. Martin faced Rudy, and he couldn't suffer.This is Matterli's consideration on the defensive end.

Things didn't seem to change as Boone hunched forward on the left side and Kelly backed away.Boone's position was very deep, and Kyle had to take the risk to help defend against harassment. In the end, Boone didn't do anything hard and passed the ball out, and Chelsea ended the attack with an open three-pointer.Unfortunately not!This guy didn't wash his hands in the toilet or forgot to read his bible in the morning!
The rebounds were firmly controlled by Kelly, and finally he didn't have to be afraid of the rebounds being knocked out by Kang Da like the previous game.Kyle advanced quickly with the ball, Connecticut retreated quickly, without a chance, handed the ball to Smith, and Kyle started to run.

On the offensive end, St. Joseph still has nothing to do.The people in Connecticut all defended within one step of the three-pointer, shrinking the basket, and the space is narrow, which is to prevent breakthroughs and not prevent shots.No matter how you run or cut them, they are unmoved, but Larry drags Villanueva around, but it doesn't affect much at all.Smith couldn't, and passed Kyle back.

There is no discussion, Kyle can only play pick and roll with Smith.Armstrong stuck close to Smith, making him unable to move when he was already slow, but it didn't matter, it was enough, pulling out a big man, the breakthrough space under the basket was much larger, enough for him to display.

Going around Smith to the left, Chelsea was abandoned by Kyle again, Kelly and Boone entangled in the basket, ready to form the second wall, Rudy followed Martin on the right, the distance was too far, originally It is impossible to help defend, but he rushed to the bottom of the basket, apparently to snipe Kyle.As for Villanueva, who was guarding Larry, he could pose a threat to Kyle, but that guy obviously believed in Larry's three-pointer more. He just approached two steps in a frightening way, and there was no more!Kyle walked around Kelly, who was entangled with the enemy, and Rudy was the only defense left under the basket. Kyle watched the lonely Martin standing in a corner. He didn't pass the ball, so he chose to go by himself.

accelerate!change direction!Facing Rudy, the two collided and then switched hands for a layup.As soon as Kyle took the shot and before it landed, he watched the ball being slapped by the sudden big hand behind his back.surprise!Kyle looked back, and it turned out that Boone was chasing after him.

Originally, it was the best choice to pass it to Martin, but he insisted on it, and he deserved to be covered and turned around.It was too late to lament, Kyle quickly returned to defense.Chelsea has already sprinted with the ball, what if he doesn't catch up!Connecticut didn't have a chance either, they could only sit down. They rarely passed the ball and patiently stretched the space, and finally found that it was all useless. St. Joseph's defensive formation was not messed up at all.When the pass was passed to Villanueva, there was not much time left. He could only rely on Larry to break through, and was pinched by Martin and Larry. He forcefully missed the shot.

Off-site offense and defense are still the same routine. Kyle used the pick-and-roll to break through the penalty area and pass the ball to Martin who was in the air.

In the next round, Boone chose to hit Kelly hard, and was called an offensive foul by the shorter athlete.

Then Smith also retaliated with a mistake, this guy may feel sorry, apologize for Kelly!

Back to St. Joseph's defense is still strong, Rudy did not make a strong three-pointer at the last moment.Armstrong took the offensive rebound and shook his prestige, but unfortunately he didn't make a tip-up.

Larry made an empty cut to receive a pass from Kyle, but missed a jumper.Kelly and Boone got entangled while grabbing a rebound, and both fell to the ground, looking at each other affectionately with big eyes and small eyes, and their hands kept moving, rubbing and pulling back and forth.In the end, the referee couldn't stand it anymore, and forcibly separated the two, one for one technical foul, which ended their friendship.

This little episode passed, and the game had to continue. Villanueva used the rhythm to break through quickly and was blocked by Smith and Larry, and was forced to stop the ball. When passing the ball, Kyle saw through the route and was intercepted.

Just when Kyle thought his chance had come, he broke through!accelerate!change direction!breakthrough!Change direction again, jump on the basketball and enter.He didn't have time to perform the action of excitement on the spot, and the cheers of the St. Joseph students in the auditorium were blocked by the referee's signal.walk!Actually walking!
……

In the opening 5 minutes, the two sides launched a thrilling tug-of-war, full of flesh-to-flesh collisions, blood-to-blood burning, coming and going, extremely intense.It's about their blacksmithing skills, the basket looks crooked!No points, both swallow eggs.

The audience is depressed!The coaches are depressed!The players couldn't figure it out either!The most uncomfortable ones are probably the two live broadcast commentators of ESPN, what a crime!Why bother!If such a game with a peculiar style is chosen to be broadcast live, what will happen to the ratings?
