NBA’s aging star system

Chapter 10: Top 4, Throwing Achievements

Kentucky successfully reached the Final Four, but coach Calipari's job suddenly became heavy again. Because, before, I thought that I would do my best and win wherever I can, but I didn’t expect that I have reached the semi-finals now.

Which team that can enter the semi-finals doesn't want to win the championship? Therefore, Coach Calipari is also hurrying to study the next opponent. Even if there is a slight possibility of winning, he will not give up.

Kentucky will face the University of Wisconsin in the Final Four. There are not many noteworthy individual players in the University of Wisconsin, but there are also some outstanding players, such as Frank Cummings, who will be selected with the 15th pick in the first round of the 9 draft. Base, Sam Decker was selected with the 18th pick in the first round.

What is more noteworthy about Wisconsin is their integrity, the entire team has a clear division of labor, and the players cooperate very well. They are a team-oriented team.

Just as Kentucky is preparing for the next game, there has been a lot of discussion about this game.

After all, buzzer beaters, dark horses, and defeats above are the most adrenaline-fueled storylines in March Madness. Kentucky's performance, without a doubt, absolutely fits these storylines, and it only managed to reach the top spot as the eighth seed. The semi-finals can already be said to be better than the ones below.

Coupled with the ups and downs of the plot at the final decisive moment, it makes people both nervous and excited.

"Kentucky No. 5 beats Michigan!" Advance to the semi-finals! ! ! 》

"Kill the Kid!" ! who is he? ! ! 》

"The mysterious player from China beats Michigan!" ! 》

Report after report came one after another.

While the outside world is discussing who this mysterious No. 5 player is, Su Tian and his Kentucky teammates are still working hard in the gym to prepare for the game.

That's thanks to coach Calipari's foresight in banning players from checking social media before the quarterfinals.

This undoubtedly gave these immature children a good preparation environment.

"Kids, I know you have just experienced a wonderful game and you are all excited." Calipari said seriously when the team ended today's training. "But I have to remind you that the war is not yet here. It’s over. No one knows what will happen until the last second. Children, for the championship and your future, keep working hard!!”

"Yes, coach!!" the team members replied excitedly. Su Tian was also very excited, thinking that Coach Calipari’s chicken soup was always so useful, and maybe he could introduce chicken soup to the NBA in the future.

During this period of time, Su Tian has been constantly familiar with the bonuses of Gary Payton template cards, and he can clearly feel that his defense has been greatly improved.

At the same time, he also has an unexpected close-range throw. Although he is not very proficient yet, he is improving very quickly. I believe he will be able to fully master it soon. However, as far as the next game is concerned, it can only be used to steal chickens. I stole one or two.

In the blink of an eye, the semi-finals game arrived.

The semi-finals between the top four have high standards and all supporting facilities are available.

Su Tian, ​​who has already had relevant experience, moves his body skillfully to avoid injuries during the game.

With the referee's whistle, the game begins.

Wisconsin's Kaminsky grabbed the ball and the opponent attacked first.

The opponent's defender advanced to half-court with the ball and handed the ball to Kaminsky, who had already moved up.

Kaminsky's skills are relatively comprehensive. After receiving the ball, Kaminsky did not rush to attack, but slowly observed the situation on the court.

After a cross-screen run on the wing, Decker suddenly cut inside, taking away two defenders, and there was a problem with Kentucky's defensive communication.

After Decker attracted the defense, the outside players were empty. Kaminsky got the ball in time, and the outside players made a three-pointer into the net.

During the transition between offense and defense, Su Tian advanced slowly with the ball. Seeing how smoothly the opponent cooperated, Su Tian knew that this game might not be that easy to win.

Su Tian gave the ball to Randall and ran without the ball to open up space. After Randall caught the ball, he turned his back and went inside.

One time, two times, Randall hit the basket in two times, turned around and successfully scored a layup.

"It seems that Randall is very expressive this time." Su Tian, ​​who turned back to defend, looked at Randall with a serious face and murmured to himself.

In the next few goals, Su Tian also consciously looked for Randall. He just ran without the ball to open up space or disrupt the opponent's defensive formation.

Until the end of the first half, he only scored 5 points and 3 assists.

This time Su Tian still played the entire first half, but he was not as tired as last time. On the one hand, it's because he didn't attack much in the first half and gave all the opportunities to Randall.

On the other hand, it is of course because Su Tian's physical fitness has improved and his physical strength has also been well supplemented.

At the beginning of the second half, Randall did not play. He mainly played in the first half and now needs a rest.

Su Tian will lead the team during this period. Su Tian looked up at the score. 37 to 35, Kentucky had a slight advantage of two points.

Su Tian held the ball at the top of the arc, faced Decker's defense, called a pick-and-roll, and with the help of Stern's solid cover, he broke through with the ball.

On Decker's side, seeing Su Tian call a pick-and-roll, he turned around and pursued Su Tian.

When Su Tian rushed to the free throw line, he was already caught up by Decker, and had a fierce physical collision with Decker. While fighting, he staggered to the basket.

When he reached the basket, Decker was already completely between Su Tian and the basket, and his excellent defensive awareness was praised by the scouts on the sidelines.

Seeing that there was nothing he could do, Su Tian turned his back and made a half-turn, which attracted Decker's defensive attention. He suddenly ducked and dived under the basket again.

An underhand throw, the basketball bounced into the frame.

A Gary Payton-style little throw caught the opponent off guard. Decker's face looked uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Turning around, after several screens and defense changes, Su Tian got in front of Decker. Decker caught the ball and started a triple threat.

"Boy, don't you still hold grudges? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, hit me alone if you want, like a man, my boy." Su Tian's mean expression coupled with trash talk made him really deserve a beating.

Decker raised his eyebrows, and without saying a word, he tested his left foot and then made a forward change of direction, preparing to rush to the right. However, it was obvious that Decker's change of direction was not large, but it was full of impact. It seemed that he still wanted to Eat Su Tian hard through the body. It seemed that Decker had obviously done his homework and knew that Su Tian's body was a weak point.

However, this time is different from the past.

When Decker transformed, Su Tian had already predicted it, and Decker's transformation was not too big, so he easily followed him. The Death Coil badge lit up immediately, and after seeing the right moment, he swiped his right hand sharply, and at the same time, The ball stealer's badge lights up and the ball is successfully touched.

Su Tian was the first to grab the ball and rushed forward with the ball, followed closely by Decker. When they rushed to the penalty area, the two collided. Su Tian immediately jumped up and threw the ball. At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded. , the ball also entered the frame accurately.
