The Legend of Small Steel Cannons in the NBA

Chapter 99

From unlimited strikes to four points behind, the home fans are suffering.The 15 minutes in the halftime seemed particularly long, and everyone died down, quietly playing with their mobile phones, or killing snacks.

Mattelly was very happy and proud to be able to force Connecticut to abolish the three-high lineup.When he replaced Blackmailer, he just wanted to increase his attack power, but he didn't expect to find a way to break through and hit the opponent's vitals.

Now leading by four points, Mattelly looked calm and confident, but he didn't know if he was pretending, "Boys, you are doing well. Do you know how high the school expects of you? People have prepared the venue for celebration on campus, I don't think you're letting them wait in vain, are you?"

"How strong is Connecticut? The history book is full of glory, last year's championship was them. But! Now, we are ahead, I have a chance to beat them, a team that is regarded as the favorite to win the championship, we want at this moment Prove to others that our St. Joseph is not a pony in the legend, we also have the strength to participate, the champion! It is not far away." Mattelly was full of enthusiasm, dancing and giving a speech, making the final speech for the final battle . "Imagine, at this moment, on the screen in the campus square, countless St. Joseph students are silently watching you there, waiting for you to return triumphantly, in the arena outside, there are also countless people who have traveled thousands of miles to the University of Connecticut, our enemy's place. Why? They want to tell you that they are with you, you are not fighting alone, countless St. Joseph students are standing behind you, they are staring at you, proud of your hard work."

When Kyle thought that Mattelly had finished talking and finished drinking the chicken soup, he was about to sit on the bench and rest.Little did he know that the old man just licked his lips and breathed out, only to hear him chattering and continued, "If you defeat this opponent, you will enter the top sixteen. All of you know that this is an opportunity. As long as you pass this hurdle, You will win the attention of people across the country, you will be respected by all the teachers and students of St. Joseph, you can enjoy the sense of glory brought by the victory, and you may go further in basketball. When you get married or make memories, you can Say to your wife, your kids, or yourself that you did something great while you were at St. Joseph's, and that it's nice that you were a part of it, isn't it? So now, it's time to take all your energy and fight it out .”

Kyle applauded first, interrupting Mattelly who was still full of ideas.The teenagers of the Yale team themselves are extremely excited. Victory is always the most desired thing for the players. Mattelly's speech is full of marks.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening everyone. It's the NCAA Tournament 32-to-16 game. Connecticut Badgers vs. St. Joseph Yale in the second half. Welcome back, let's see what happens next? I Looking forward to it, Brandy, tell me what you think, which team you support."

"In the last few minutes of the first half, St. Joseph's sudden change caught UConn off guard and made the game more confusing. Regardless of factors such as talent, tactics, and team, I personally prefer UConn to get the promotion spot because my My nephew is studying at this school."

"We are indeed partners. I agree with you, but St. Joseph still has a chance, and they cannot be ignored. OK! Let's turn our eyes to the field and continue the game." The two of them just underestimated St. Joseph. Obviously believe in talent more.

Smith didn't play, he was big and physically exhausted, so Mattelly chose to let him slow down for a while.

Now St. Joseph's lineup is half main force and half starter, which shows Mattelly's cautiousness, Kyle, Martin, Larry, Adams, and Maureen.Connecticut's lineup remains unchanged, still Chelsea, Panlar, Rudy, Villanueva, and Boone.Jim is going all out!
Kyle had the ball in half court, played a pick-and-roll with Maureen, a guy with a mid-range basket, and broke into the basket. Kyle didn't take two steps when he was surrounded by two people. Kyle could only choose to return the ball, because the pick-and-roll caused a misalignment. , Maureen faced Chelsea, with such a big height difference, without Kyle winking, Maureen resolutely voted, but unfortunately he didn't!Kyle instantly felt that he had encountered a pit.

Boone gets the rebound and Chelsea pushes forward.Rudy made a strong attack with the ball, but was surrounded by St. Joseph and threw the ball to Panlar.The latter took a step back, facing Martin, who was back on defense, also made a shot, hit!

Panlar's touch carries over, which isn't a good thing for St. Joseph.Kyle took the ball hard again, facing several big men under the basket, Kyle still chose to pass the ball to Maureen who was empty and ignored.In the last round, Morin made a misplaced shot and missed a goal, which made Kyle depressed, but everyone has a bad touch, let alone the first ball, so Kyle is still willing to trust his teammates, and the result is that this guy shoots again.

Chelsea sprinted forward with the ball. When Kyle retreated, he looked deeply at Morin. The undercover was too obvious. The last time he played against the University of Louisville, he was so festered.

When Kyle caught up with Chelsea and was about to take a defensive position, this guy went straight and shot from outside the three-pointer, and hit it!
Less than 2 minutes into the game, the situation was not good. Mattelly immediately called a timeout for substitutions, and at the same time reprimanded Morin with a spit.Ask him what kind of plane he is doing?Hands are limp.

It's still a big and four small lineup. When Kyle came back, he still played a pick-and-roll with Smith, went two steps forward, and double-teamed again. It seems that Jim ordered him to be crucified at halftime!Kyle didn't think about it anymore, and returned the ball to Smith, who still didn't have a mid-range shot.

Villanueva's post-up singles bullied Larry, Martin went to help defend, passed out, Rudy thought for [-] seconds, and also shot a three-pointer.The distance was not too far, Martin turned around and swooped, covering Rudy's face with his hand, but it was useless, and he was hit!This is the rhythm of being beaten. You must know that Rudy's three-pointer is about the same level as Kyle's. This also shows that luck has come.

The audience who supported St. Joseph on the spot felt bad all of a sudden!The screen was full of silence.It took only two minutes from leading by four points to falling behind by five points.This speed is too fast for people to accept.

But the white uniform spreads in waves, and the sound resounds through the sky, startling the birds, and squinting at the world, especially the blue world, as if to say, small!Terrible.

The two uncles of ESPN are also happy, and finally typed it out. After waiting for so long, it is not easy!Linked to the ratings, in addition to whether the game is good or not, it depends on whether the audience is willing to watch it. As the favorite to win the championship, Connecticut must of course move towards victory. This is a script issue and it is also expected by everyone.
