Chapter 35: The Vulnerable Wolverine
Wang Lin was still explaining the tactical details to the players as before. Bob Pettit watched with interest. He was curious about how the undefeated coach made the tactics this season.
"Damon's game, you are still our variable. Jaren Rose is a tough guy, and he is 10 inches taller than you, so in this game you have to play smarter. When you break through, choose the right side as much as possible, don't choose the left side, and shoot, pass and other things can be combined. Anyway, how to make the opponent uncomfortable, you will do whatever you want. He is on the defensive end, the success rate of the right side defense is 40% higher than that of the left side. Although he was beaten by Nick Van Exel in the semi-finals, you are different from the latter. You are the point guard, and passing is your first task. I hope that you don't forget this even when you arrive at the NBA."
Xiao Feishe's face was very serious. He nodded. This was his last college game. He wanted to use a championship to repay Wang Lin and also reward himself.
Bob Pettit was a little surprised. Could this Wang Lin be Chuck Daly's disciple? That guy was so meticulous when he was dealing with the enemy's core on the defensive end. The Jordan law was made up of these details little by little. Otherwise, the rough movements of Rick Mahon and John's people would not work at all. The God of Basketball also continued to evolve in these details. He eventually became a existence with no blind spots in both offense and defense. One of the few ruthless people in NBA history with a potential value of up to 100.
"Shake, Theo, you two have to defend the paint area in this game, and you must pay attention to the guard against Zhu Wan Howard. Yes, it's Zhu Wan Howard, Chris Webber, you just need to watch alone, but Zhu Wan Howard must have two people, Eddie and Michael, you two have to perform normally. I believe Jimmy King and Ray Jackson are not your opponents. Come on, guys." No matter Weber O'Neal, the two of them did not hesitate, because Wang Lin had no judgment mistakes this season.
After Wang Lin explained it, he touched the heads of the five guys on a routine basis. Hanmingke was still watching alone on the bench. How much he hoped that he would have a chance to play in this game. Even if it was only one minute, it would have a great improvement in the next draft.
"Gert, you are ready to play in the second half of this game. I know that after this season, you will be drafted."
Without giving Hanmingke a chance to react, Wang Lin turned around. For Hanmingke, Wang Lin actually did not have many personal grudges, but because the other party did not conform to his tactical system, that's all, but on the stage of the finals, letting him play is still possible for him as the head coach.
Hanmingk suddenly regretted that if he listened to Wang Lin as a meat shield before the season, instead of continuing to immerse himself in the fantasy of the next Sabonis, would he be the one who is the one who is showing off on the court now, rather than the muscle man Ratliff?
Ed Martin is here today, he dresses up like a successful person and looks very imposing, ‘Come on, guys, I have booked you a hotel to celebrate after winning the championship, so it’s up to you next, Steve, don’t let me down.”
Fab.5 came on stage, and the five-member team of the Demon Legion also arrived, and the two commentators also started their own performances.
"This is the final of the NCAA Classic in 91-92 season. I am Jim Nantz, and I am with Billy Parker. Today, two teams entering the finals are the LSU Tigers, known as the Demons' Legion. They are the top seeds of this Classic, and their opponent is the University of Michigan Wolverines, the No. 6 seeds of this Classic. Their starting lineup also has the strength to compete with the Tigers. Let's wait and see what the result is."
The starting lineup of both sides was completed and they arrived at the center line to jump the ball. O'Neal easily transferred the ball to Xiao Feishi when facing Uncle Huo Er, while Jaylen Ross quickly retreated and defended.
At the beginning of this game, Steve Fisher used human-tapping. This tactic is very conventional, and at the same time, it can reflect Jaylen Ross's very strong defensive ability.
"Little baby, the stage in the final is too dangerous. I will send you home to find your mother right away." Looking at the little flying mouse so much shorter than him, Jaylen Rose was full of disdain. Although Tim Boggs has made a name for himself in this era, he is one of the few after all, and most point guards who are less than 1.8 meters tall. It is not unrealistic to survive in the NBA. These point guards basically have sharp breakthroughs, diarrhea in defense, and no shooting.
Xiao Feishi ignored Jalen Ross, but remembered Wang Lin's words. He controlled the ball with one hand, while using his hands to prevent Jalen Ross from sticking to him, while preparing for a chance to break through.
"Give up, baby, I am the best defensive player in the top ten conferences. If you want to pass my defense, you must not..." Bang, Xiao Feishi took advantage of Jaylen Rose's beeping and pulled the ball back. At the same time, a change of direction broke directly from the left to the right. Jaylen Rose quickly slid over, but was still one step late. Xiao Feishi broke through his defense. Jimmy Jin on the other side did not make up for defense in time. The former did not break in, but stood at the top of the arc and stopped and jumped directly.
The ball entered the net, and Xiao Feishi clenched her fists. Since the beginning of the elite game, Xiao Feishi felt that his shooting and physical condition were getting better and better day by day. This feeling was really good. In this year under Wang Lin, he has really grown a lot, especially in offense. In addition to his back, he can do other skills. It is not that he can't do it on his back, but Wang Lin told himself that because he is a small fast spirit type, not the kind of thick mountain cannon guard, he can't move his back, and then the ball was cut off.
Steve Fisher just sat down on the sidelines, but unexpectedly, Jaylen Rose was passed by the Flying Squirrel at the beginning.
' f.u.c.k, Jaren, what are you doing, cheer up, this is the Elite Final."
Jalen Ross' potential value is 79, and his current ability value is 74, two points lower than the Little Flying Squirrel, so when he wanted to get back the field, he suffered another loss. This time he learned to be smart. When he arrived in the frontcourt, he just did nothing but beat Little Flying Squirrel on his back. Anyway, NCAA has nothing to do with his back for five seconds, and you can't even have thirty-five seconds on his back, assuming that the head coach allows you to play like this.
After one, two strokes, Jaren Rose felt that he was about to push the other party away. Just as he was performing the third stroke, he suddenly felt empty behind him. He wanted to turn around and turn the scene of his fall, but the flying mouse did not give him a chance. With a bang, the ball was directly cut off. Jaren Rose had an intimate contact with the floor. The flying mouse skipped past Jaren Rose like a gust of wind and got the score again.
"oh, the Tigers performed very well here. Damon Stadmeier continued to perform well. Perhaps he entered the NBA draft this season, because there are very few very comprehensive organizational guards like him in this draft." Jim Nantz said after seeing the Flying Squirrels contributed on both offense and defense.
Billy Parker was not idle either, and he talked about another topic, "What I am more curious about now is who will become the next Damon. The McDonald's All-Star has not started yet, but this year's McDonald's All-Star selection has come out. Among the 20 All-Stars, there are 7 backcourt players. I wonder which one will be favored by the Devil. Look at Damon Stadmeier now, I believe that those seven guys will have no resistance to the recruitment of Lsu. "Billy Parker is a very extreme person. He can brag about the people he likes, and can be dark for the people he hates for the whole life.
The game on the court continued, and there was still time to get the last attack before the end of the first half. Steve Fisher used up the last timeout and arranged a tactic. Weber supported him at the top of the arc and O'Neal followed him, but Ratliff was still in the inside. Weber saw the opportunity and passed it directly to Zhuwan Howard. The latter took the ball and wanted to hook him, but Ratliff had been waiting for a long time. With a bang, the ball was blown away. At the same time, the sound of the attack also rang. The Wolverine missed the last shot, and they entered the second half with a 10-point disadvantage.
Ed Martin was in a very unbeautiful mood. Before the game, he bought all his belongings in the past few years and won the Wolverines, but Wolverine was very behind in the first half. What made Ed Martin, the sports manager, unacceptable was that Wolverine actually allowed the Tigers to score 55 points in the halftime, which almost set the highest half-time scoring record in the NCAA Elite Finals. You should know that NCAA attacks every 35 seconds.
Ed Martin was very angry and came outside the Wolverine lounge, and the players inside were quarreling.
"f.u.c.k, Chris, what are you doing? There are so many opportunities in the first half. Why do you always pass the ball? Why don't you shoot? Sometimes they don't defend you anymore. Why don't you shoot? Do you know, you play like a dog. shit." Jaren Ross was very angry. He was 10 points behind in the first half. He was tricked by the bastard of the Flying Squirrel as a pillar. When he got used to the Flying Squirrel's right breakthrough, the latter turned to the left, or broke through and passed the ball and shot.
Webber didn't know what happened. He was very nervous in this game, and there were always many terrifying scenes when he got the ball, so for the sake of safety, it would be better to pass the ball, but he couldn't say these. 'You fuck you, who was slapped his chest last night. Ku told us that Damon Stadmeier gave him, but the opponent scored 12 points and 4 assists in the first half. What about you? The score was not even three times the opponent's score, and there were 3 mistakes. If I hadn't had my pass several times, the game would have ended long ago. You are the point guard, not here to talk, can you focus on organizing the offense? Can you organize the ball to me?"
Steve Fisher was cold-eyed at all in the corner because he couldn't even control it. Everyone said that the champion in 1989 was won by Glen Rice, and no one said that he was won by him as the head coach, so he has always had no presence at the Wolverines. This kind of quarrel is not uncommon this season, but this time they really encountered a huge crisis.
Bang, just as Jalen Rose wanted to retaliate, the door was kicked open by Ed Martin, and the fat man came over from outside. He looked like a powder barrel about to explode.
"f.u.c.k, I'll shut up. I'll give you money and scholarships to you. I'm not going to quarrel. Damn a bunch of trash, I can't even beat a bunch of baby soldiers. If I had known you were so useless, my money would be better than to please the Bichi in the nightclub. At least those Bichi will say ok to me. You know, I will complain. No matter how big your differences are, or how many points you fall behind in the first half, I want to win this game. No matter what method you use, you must get it back for me."
After Ed Martin finished speaking, he left directly, and the entire locker room suddenly became quiet.
The rest time passed quickly. At the beginning of the second half, Jalen Ross had a squirting against Weber, and he didn't know whether to vent his anger or something. When he arrived in the frontcourt, he threw the ball to Weber regardless of whether there was a defender in front of Weber. This was a typical example of not wanting to play.
Steve Martin had no choice but to replace Jaylen Ross and replace Robert Pelinka. Kobe's agent, don't mention it when facing Little Flying Squirrel. The opponent's potential value is only 40. It's a luxury to be able to play in NCAA. NBA should not think about it.
Jalen Ross, a man with more than 70 combat power, has fallen more than half of the Wolverines collapsed, because Webber really organized the game to the end. He made less than 10 shots in the whole game and scored a comprehensive data of 7 points, 6 assists and 3 rebounds, but the Wolverine was defeated by the Tigers with a huge score difference of 107:70.
Duke fans should be very pleased to see this score, because they are finally no longer the one who lost the most in the history of the finals. They were once defeated by Unlv with a huge score difference of 103:73 by the NCAA final in 1990, and the Wolverine lost to the Tigers 37 points in this game.
At the same time, it also made Little Flying Squirrels and O'Neal. The two of them worked together to score 58 points in this game. Little Flying Squirrels scored 30 points and 9 assists, successfully won the mop in the semi-finals. O'Neal won the Naismith Award, John Wooden Award, Adolf Rupp Award and other awards. He broke Letterner's rule for three consecutive years. Letterner ushered in Waterloo in his senior season. Not only did the dominance of personal awards end, the championship was gone, and the only comfort was that he was selected for the Dream Team.
