Chapter 10 Winning

Moyes returns.

Receive the ball, turned around and squeezed away Johnson behind him to dunk with one hand. This was Moyes' first attack after he came on the court and his first touch.

This is a warning!

"Damn!" Mario murmured in a low voice.

Chen Junhao raised his head and looked at the scoreboard outside the field. There were two minutes left. Jason and the others would come back in just two minutes.

Support for two more minutes?

No, it should be said that there are still two minutes to enjoy. How many times can the top teams in the United States and the most prosperous lineup be able to accept such opportunities alone? Only these two minutes.

Looking up at the sky above the stadium, Chen Junhao took a deep breath and Missouri fought back!

The ball was handed over to Chen Junhao, and there was a double-team on the outside. Chen Junhao dribbled the ball and quickly swam to catch the cover of his teammates. After the basketball changed hands and changed directions behind the ball, the line broke into the inside line. The figure flashed continuously in the crowd, and suddenly rushed to the basket and jumped at the same time with Moyes, who was guarding the basket at Kentucky.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and the two figures that jumped up in the air flew towards us under the influence of inertia. Chen Junhao held the basketball with one hand and dunked; Moyes opened his hands and blocked! Just as Moyes' blocked hand and the basketball in Chen Junhao's hand were about to come into contact with each other, the basketball suddenly sank. When it appeared again, it made a loud bang and dunked it backwards to Chen Junhao, who had already passed by the basket.

A brief sound appeared in the stadium, and all the audience opened their mouths and looked disbelief like two commentators on the scene. After a long time, a shocking cheer sounded throughout the audience. The commentator was excited: "God, what did I see? This is really an incredible goal. Dodge in the air, gliding backhanded down. God, is this really something humans can do?"

"Oh yeah! Our Jack is such a genius, an omnipotent genius." This is the Missouri TV broadcast commentator yelling excitedly.

The fans in Missouri were filled with joy, and the Chinese audience who watched the game in China cheered: "It's really great!"

Indeed, it was really great! Chen Junhao couldn't help but shake his fists. This kind of goal was a complete result of inspiration, and he might not be able to do it again if he changed the time.

Kentucky's upsurge in Moyes' return was completely offset by this ball.

The offense and defense are transferred.

The ball was quickly interspersed with the ball, and the inside was calmly cooperated and stuck in the position. Moyes resisted Johnson's reception, Pinnik stepped forward to respond, Charlton made up for the position, Mario moved out of the position. After passing the ball, Moyes threw the basketball that was raised above his head with both hands. After the basketball passed the heads of everyone on both sides, he found Aimar on the outside. Aimar received the ball, raised his hand, shot, and three-pointer!

"Swish!" The ball entered!

Strengthening the inside defense against Moyes, the giant, Missouri's outside defense had to relax. This is another role of Moyes' existence, attracting defense with strong attack power and creating more opportunities for teammates.

Missouri was unable to effectively block such a Kentucky when even all the main players were present, let alone now? Chen Junhao smiled bitterly. There is only one way to deal with such an opponent: attack instead of defense.

"Swoosh" kicked off at the bottom line, Chen Junhao turned around and ran towards the opposite side, counterattacking!

The outside pick-and-roll, move one step, jump up and shoot, the basketball arc flew out and landed on the basket and bounced high. When both sides raised and judged the position of the basketball's bounce, they were stunned by the fact that a person had already arrived first. After receiving the ball, they raised their hands, and the basketball drew an arc and fell into the basket.

Chen Junhao, you can win!

The goal with some luck brought the gap back to five points. The Kentucky players were a little annoyed. They were already quite focused when defending, but they still took advantage of such a loophole for their opponents.

...

In the next round, both sides lacked some luck in offense and defense, and neither ball could be shot.

It was still Moyes, and he made a one-handed shot at the basket, "Swoosh!" The basketball drew a small arc and fell into the basket, and the difference became a three-pointer.

Then Anthony, Kaman and others came on the court, and the Trident reunited!

The technical statistics that Chen Junhao handed over in five minutes are: thirteen points, two assists, and one steal! How great this data is, I don’t need to elaborate on it. The biggest role for Missouri is to maintain the lead and give Anthony and others enough rest time.

Then Missouri's strongest lineup came on the stage.

Anthony and others who walked onto the court first raised their hands and slapped their teammates who were replaced and sweaty from the field: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone!" At Chen Junhao, he put away his fingers and clenched his fists and raised his fists to fight him: "Beautiful, Jack!"

"Thank you!" Chen Junhao smiled, "The more beautiful one is still behind, but you have to be the one who performs."

"Of course, the limelight cannot be stolen by you alone." Anthony smiled and put his shoulder on Chen Junhao, "Don't worry, I won't give them face."

Kaman said, "So sorry, they can only stop at the semifinals this year."

Chen Junhao smiled and raised his hand and clenched with Kaman, saying, "I hope all you have left is more than the strength to speak big."

The muscles on Kaman raised his arms were strong: "I'm full of energy now!"

"Since that's the case, what are you waiting for?" Chen Junhao raised his hand to take over the basketball thrown by Mario at the bottom line. "Bang!" The basketball bounced up, "Go!"

Anthony and Kaman looked at each other, rushing toward the other side at the same time, as if they were going to compete with who could reach the opponent's position first. Chen Junhao dribbled the ball and then attacked. Missouri attacked the opponent in a trident in the shape of an inverted font.

Anthony and Kaman both encountered the expected obstacle. After encountering an interception, Chen Junhao changed hands and dribbled behind the ball and changed direction and easily got rid of the opponent. The trident entered the inside line at the same time. This time it seemed like a dragon entering the sea. The interweaving and cooperation of the three people made Kentucky's originally tight defense go down. The final climax of this offense was that Anthony took the pass and then stepped into the basket and cut into the one-handed dunk, which gave the perfect end to this offense with the violent shaking of the basket.

A perfect offense, brilliant cooperation, and a passionate dunk performance, Missouri's offense has all the elements that can motivate the audience's emotions the most.

"Hula!" The momentum of Missouri fans suddenly overwhelmed Kentucky, and the whole stadium was filled with Missouri cheers.

This goal widened the gap in scores to five points.

Although there are still five minutes before the end of the game, the players on both sides know deeply that it is time to decide the victory or defeat of this game. Kentucky has not been able to do anything to Missouri led by Chen Junhao when all the main players are on the court. Now that the trident is reunited, Anthony, Carman and others are at their peak after resting. On the other hand, the other four people outside of Moyes have not rested for a long time, and Moyes has only been resting for two or three minutes. Although Kentucky is not at the end of his strength, it is an indisputable fact that the players on the court are quite tired.

Now the situation in the game has become a situation where Kentucky expects to maintain a stalemate, while Missouri is trying to expand its lead at all costs. A five-point lead does not guarantee that they can safely welcome the last moment.

Kentucky counterattack. Under Brunson's guidance, Kentucky began to slow down the offensive rhythm. Thanks to Moyes' strong inside deterrence, Kentucky's slow offensive rhythm suddenly had two internal and external pass cooperation, and Missouri was just as difficult to resist. When several people rushed to block Moyes, they usually gave other Kentucky people a quick pass. The speed of the pass was always faster than the speed of people moving. The quick catch and pass was used with active pick-and-roll cover. Kentucky players could always find a chance to take action. Missouri's defense could only block faster and block faster, so that the opponent was not so calm when taking action. For shooting, the subtle influence may affect the final result. When Missouri pursued it, it would exert enough influence on the moment the shooting players took action, so that their shots would miss the scheduled track.

Think about it, if a pair of giant hands suddenly popped up in front of you when you were shooting, who could complete a perfect shot without any influence? There may be such people, but it is possible to train hard and have a genius talent.

Chen Junhao counts one, Duke's Rydick counts one, but he can't find the whole ncaa after searching for others.

Kentucky also has no such figure. So their shootings fell out of the basket in a row. Once it was Aimal and once it was Mavik. The two who influenced the shooting of the two were Chen Junhao and Anthony. The two who were the best at marking and defending in the Trident.

Missouri grabbed the rebound and launched a rapid counterattack. The trident's speed was at its best at this time. Kaman, who grabbed the rebound, threw the ball out, and one of the people in the middle received the ball and handed it to Chen Junhao. When the basketball was handed over to Chen Junhao, he had already rushed through the midfield. No player in Kentucky had been able to return to the defensive position.

He dribbled the ball and ran wildly at high speed. When he was under the basket, he jumped up at the same time as Aimal, who was desperately rushing back to the basket. The basketball was raised above his head and flew into the sky with a whoosh, but the direction was not the basket.

"Swoosh!" The figure following behind jumped up, took the basketball thrown by Chen Junhao in the air, and swung a big windmill in the air with one hand and smashed the basketball into the basket with a loud bang.

For the second time, Chen Junhao handed the ball to Anthony who cut into the inside in the fast movement. Anthony raised the ball with one hand outside the penalty area and jumped high. Kentucky jumped up to block the ball in a hurry. The basketball gently drew a high arc and crossed the hands of the blocking player and hit the board and entered the frame.

A difficult goal! The ability of the ncaa scoring champion is undoubtedly shown in this goal. Two offensive and defensive transitions and two chances, Missouri widened the gap to nine points in one fell swoop.

With nine points, the gap between the double digits is only a slight difference. A little luck and the team's efforts, Missouri widened the gap in scores as she wished.

The situation in Kentucky deteriorated suddenly.

The Kentucky coach has no choice but to pause the adjustment.

After the timeout, Kentucky's offensive effect was immediately effective. Chen Junhao guarded Brunson from the outside, Mario assisted in defense, Brunson passed the ball horizontally, and the basketball passed through the middle of the two defenders. Aimal received the ball from a high position on the free throw line and drove the ball to the inside. Pierce, who stayed at the basket, stepped forward to stop it but was not careful that Aimal pushed forward and passed the ball out of the ball. The direction was Mavik who slipped through the baseline and exited the penalty area from the basket. After passing the ball, Aimal did not stop and continued to rush forward. Anthony, who had saved the ball from the inside of Missouri to defend.

Pick-roll cover!

After receiving the ball, Mavik turned around and shot, shot at a zero-degree angle outside the penalty area, the basketball drew an arc and fell straight into the basket.

A typical Kentucky-style offense is not very exciting but absolutely effective. The pick-and-roll combination and basic basketball tactics are perfect in Kentucky's hands.

After the attack, Kentucky's return speed was very fast, and Missouri's two fast breaks had really taught them a lesson.

The seven-point gap. Chen Junhao, who is in possession of the ball, looked at the time on the off-court scoreboard. There are more than three minutes left. It is no wonder that Kentucky can still keep calm and play steadily. "If the score difference suddenly becomes very tense, I wonder if they can still be so calm." Chen Junhao suddenly showed a malicious smile on his face.

After the outside pick-and-roll passed the ball out, Chen Junhao quickly penetrated into the baseline. Outside the penalty area, Anthony received the ball and stood at the position. When he was about to break through the shooting, he saw Chen Junhao turning around and asking for the ball outside the three-point line. Without thinking, Anthony's ball was immediately passed.

Receive the ball, shake off the blocking opponent, Chen Junhaoyang shot with his hand, and the basketball went straight to the basket in a curve, and the ball entered!

Three-pointer, Chen Junhao scored another three-pointer in the fourth quarter.

And the score difference also becomes ten!

The ball seemed to be a basin of cold water that made the Kentucky players feel cold. There was a very small gap, less than three minutes, and the opponent was Missouri... The pressure suddenly seemed to appear out of thin air, and the Kentucky players on and off the court suddenly felt huge pressure.

"Double-digit score difference" and "single-digit score difference" are two completely different properties. At least in the psychological state of the players behind the side - although nine points and tens are only a slight difference.

The Kentucky coach off the court was helpless, and he couldn't stop again.

With the cheers of teammates and fans off the court, Kentucky launched a counterattack. The 10-point gap made them unable to calm down and play steadily. Brunson, who dribbled the ball quickly, dribbled the ball through the half court, accelerated the breakthrough, trying to create an opportunity to score directly.

"Time is good for yourself" does not need to explain that all Missouri players understand this. It is no exaggeration to describe Missouri's defense by using stalking and beating when defending. Seeing the dawn of victory, Missouri players on the field were all very excited and their movements became flexible all of a sudden. Brunson's breakthrough was not successful.

Because it was Chen Junhao who defended him.

After failing to break through, Brunson immediately passed the ball and handed the basketball over to Aimal behind him. After the pick-and-roll cooperation from the outside, Aimal made a three-pointer!

Too urgent!

Aimal's ball fell on the basket and bounced up, and the rebound was confiscated by Missouri.

This hasty and impatient attack caused Kentucky not only to be hurt. Missouri grabbed the rebound and launched a counterattack. Chen Junhao controlled the rhythm and played steadily, which was obviously consuming time. Then, when the Kentucky players were rashly rushing to grab the ball, they suddenly accelerated and broke through, and a change of directional basketball hit the ground and bounced up and fell into Carman's hand at the basket. After receiving the ball, Carman turned around and shot, holding his opponent high and didn't even have the chance to block the block.

The ball is played and the frame is inserted.

The difference becomes twelve points.

The gap between two minutes and the gap between 12 points is definitely a gap that is hopeless. Kentucky did not give up, but Missouri was fully focused and did not give him any chance to play.

After that, the Kentucky coach stopped adjusting his tactics continuously, but the situation was hopeless. Under the control of the rhythm of Missouri's steady and steady pace, time vanished ruthlessly.

The final score is frozen at 107:101.

The victory and defeat came as a sudden move. The stalemate lasted for 35 or 6 minutes, but it took a sharp turn at the end, and the situation changed so quickly that it was dazzling. Kentucky missed the shot. Missouri made a counterattack. The situation of such two stalemates suddenly became clear. Chen Junhao's three-pointer was a foregone conclusion and completely determined Missouri's victory.

The game was stalemate, but the only thing that decided the winner was the last blink of an eye. Two attacks and defenses, Kentucky missed the basketball and lost the game.

Although the outcome of the game was not decided in the last minute or the last second, no one could say that the game was a big start and a bad end.

After the game, the audience was still impressed by the process of the game.

Both sides of the game were teams that could take one chance to give their opponent a fatal blow. It was normal to miss two consecutive shots in a basketball game, but at that specific time it became Missouri's opportunity. Missouri seized that opportunity and tried to maintain his advantage until the end, and the game was announced to be over.

The basketball game is actually quite dramatic. If Anthony and Carman, who had just played at that time, had a cold touch and missed two goals, then this game might have been another ending.

Missouri's winning is convincing, but in fact it's also thrilling.

Chen Junhao undoubtedly won the MVP of this game with his thirteen-point performance in the final quarter. His fourth quarter game was hailed as the key to deciding the game.

And Anthony and Kaman did not let him lead the way, and both surpassed their opponents in their respective positions.

Missouri won the game, and Kentucky did not lose the respect of the fans. After this game, the media also gave them a very high evaluation. They reached the NCAA semi-finals in three years, only one step away from the final. Kentucky lacked only luck. And when his two aces were overwhelmed by their opponent's trident, the game was still able to play to that level, which shows how good Kentucky is.

After this game, Missouri took the lead and advanced to the finals.
