Originally, he was still thinking about how to answer what Durant just said, but after the phone call with Hayes, he already had the answer in his heart.

"Kevin, trust me."

He looked at Durant firmly.

Lin Ying often said the word "believe", but more often in the past, Lin Ying said "I believe you".

But this time, Lin Ying said "believe me".

Durant looked at Lin Ying, and then he noticed that Lin Ying had "grown taller".

From the first game of the "Crazy Three", Hibbert was unable to play, to the last game when he single-handedly carried the team's interior defense.

His friend who was originally just responsible for delivering artillery shells to him is now able to take charge of his own business!

"I trust you."

Durant said with a smile.

"Don't feel pressure. If you're defending a zone, give me your back."

He then said with firm eyes.

Trust for trust, he would not let Lin Ying face Oden alone.

Lin Ying nodded.

Durant's defense has improved a lot compared to the beginning of the season.

With Durant's help, he will be more confident.

…

"Reverse Jordan Law?"

As soon as she returned to the hotel from the airport, Lin Ying was dragged to Barnes' room by Springman.

And as soon as he sat down, he heard this familiar yet unfamiliar word from Springman.

Familiar because of "Jordan's Law".

Not just because he, a time traveler, knew this rule before.

But in the last game against UNLV, the opponent used this rule.

But what is the "Reverse Jordan Law"?

Springman explained it to Lin Ying, and he understood it quickly.

The "Jordan Law" is to use every method to prevent Jordan from scoring, and the "Reverse Jordan Law" is to use every method to prevent Jordan's teammates from scoring!

Jordan here refers to Oden.

Texas is going to use this defense against Oden.

This has to start with Ohio State's performance after entering the crazy three.

Oden performed well in the regular season, but after entering the "Crazy Three", he was deeply involved in a foul crisis.

This is another reason why Durant was on par with Oden before.

You must know that in this era, forwards, especially small forwards, have the lowest probability of becoming the number one pick.

The center is a choice that many teams with the No. 1 pick would make with their eyes closed.

So if Oden hadn't stretched his hips on his own, it would have been difficult for Durant to shake his position no matter how good he performed.

Oden is plagued by foul crises. Ohio State's top scorer is Ron Lewis, who averages 21.8 points per game!

This can be said to be quite explosive.

What's more interesting is that this player has never been drafted by the NBA in history, and he has never even played in the NBA.

After these introductions, you can probably guess this player's style of play: somewhat similar to Abrams, a master of scoring points, but with poor physical fitness.

Beyond that, Ohio State also has Mike Conley and Daequan Cook.

Another very important point is that Ohio State University's three-point ability is very strong.

On the outside, Conley, Lewis and Cook all have a three-point accuracy of around 40%, and even power forward Harris has an accuracy of 37%.

Based on this, Springman and Barnes came up with the "Reverse Jordan Rule."

"We know that will be an unprecedented challenge and may even have a negative impact on you, so we must ask for your opinion."

Springman said seriously.

Since this tactic is aimed at Oden's players, it can only be a one-on-one defense against Oden.

In this kind of matchup, Lin Ying is very likely to be beaten.

But as long as others score low, it will be difficult for Ohio State University to win the game with Oden's explosive scoring.

In fact, Springman and others call this the "Reverse Jordan Law", but it is actually part of the "Jordan Law".

Because when the Pistons played the Bulls in the past, if Jordan's touch was average, they would defend like this.

Lin Ying did not answer immediately.

To be honest, this arrangement by the coaching staff was a bit beyond his expectation.

When defending Hibbert before, the University of Texas responded by using him as the main defense and then guarding a 2-3 zone defense.

As a result, now he is facing off against the stronger Oden, but he is one-on-one.

"Oden defeated Noah and Horford with one hand and scored a 25+12 double-double."

This is the news headline that he remembers most.

Although the one-hand score is mentioned in the news, after all, after watching the game, you know that the injury actually has little impact.

But this also shows that Oden has explosive scoring ability in the NCAA.

Cut off 40+10 on his head?

It's not impossible in a one-to-one situation.

"Of course tactics can be flexible. If we find that the situation is not right, we can adjust..."

"I do."

"What?"

Springman hasn't finished speaking yet.

"I'm willing to go one-on-one with Oden and do my best."

Lin Ying said firmly.

Springman stood there stunned.

He originally prepared a lot of rhetoric, but Lin Ying suddenly answered so simply.

This will stop him!

"Then it's settled. We will focus on training in the next few days and win the next game. We will be the new history of the University of Texas!"

It was Barnes who reacted faster and served chicken soup on the spot one night.

…

"Are you crazy?!"

After hearing what Lin Ying said, Durant showed an incredulous look.

Crazy! He thought Lin Ying must be crazy!

"No, I have to go find Ross, this is too bullying!"

He said and was about to walk out.

But Lin Ying grabbed him at this time.

"Kevin, do you remember what Coach Rick said? Difficulties and opportunities coexist."

"That's a lie!"

Durant immediately corrected him.

It's a pity that he is not Chinese, otherwise he would definitely say that it was poisonous chicken soup.

"No, I don't think so. Do you remember you said before that you wanted to beat Kobe?"

Lin Ying continued.

Durant nodded.

Of course he remembers what he said himself.

Just after he nodded, Lin Ying then said with firm eyes:
Chapter completed!
