At 9:18 p.m., with Frank Kaminsky and Marshall Plumlee taking to the center circle, the NCAA's annual drama is about to unfold...

"beep"

As the referee blew his whistle, the ball was thrown into the air...

"Return to defense." Facing Marshall Plumlee, who couldn't even jump himself in training, Young directly called on his teammates to start returning to defense.

"Bang" Young's prediction was not wrong at all. As soon as Wisconsin got the ball, they wanted to speed up and hit the basket, but they underestimated Duke's prepared first line of defense. Tyus Jones took advantage of what he had seen before.

The video successfully blocked Wisconsin point guard Koenig's breakthrough route.

When the plan failed, Wisconsin quickly came up with the next plan:

Taking advantage of the lack of height of the Duke guard, he lobbed high to the basket and let Decker dunk.

"Sam, be careful." Just as Decker was sprinting with all his strength to score Wisconsin's first point, Koenig suddenly found that his pass had lost its direction. No, it should be said that it was completely out of his control.

, was intercepted.

"I can tell." Just as Koenig was thinking about where the help defender came from, Young quickly walked past him and gave him the answer for free.

After stealing the ball, facing Wisconsin's interception, Young took two big steps to completely get rid of his pursuers and came to Wisconsin's half.

Facing the empty basket and the cheers of Duke fans, Young directly took one step from the free throw line and jumped into the air, slamming the ball into the basket like a fire.

When Young dunked the ball in to give Duke the first two points of the game, the Duke fans at Lucas Oil Stadium were completely ignited by Young:

"o,o,o"

…………

…………

Unable to play fast, Wisconsin immediately chose to slow down the pace and play slowly

"Bronson, give it to me." Kaminsky blocked Marshall Plumlee behind him and began to ask for the ball from his own point guard.

When the boss asked for the ball, how could Koenig dare not give it to him? He immediately made a lob pass gesture. This time, in order to prevent an accident, he deliberately increased the height and speed of the lob ball.

Kaminsky received the ball and immediately hit Marshall Plumlee.

"Bang"

Kaminsky's strength and size advantages played an absolute role, and Marshall Plumlee was pushed back a big step.

As Duke's thickest human shield, Plumlee retreated and faced Kaminski's direction without fear.

When Kaminsky tried to make a second impact, he suddenly found that he had lost the ball.

"With an excellent opportunity to cover up and cut the ball, Young successfully cut off Kaminsky's ball. Now it's Duke's turn to counterattack. Their transition offense is their "killing" weapon."

"Bah!" The Wisconsin player finally reacted and hugged Young who was trying to get started.

"Steady, don't be in a hurry, play slowly." Looking at Coach K's gesture of steadying the rhythm, Young threw a sideline ball and handed the ball to Tyus Jones.

Following Coach K's order, in the next few minutes, Young began to integrate into Duke's system, doing things such as

Screening, pulling, running without the ball, protecting backcourt rebounds, and moving the ball in a wide range of things.

This change caused Wisconsin coach Ryan and the players on the field to completely lose the defensive Duke offensive plan that they had set before the game.

As Young used his wide vision to feed Marshall Plumlee an easy inside dunk, Wisconsin trailed Duke by 11 points, 7-18, at 14:03.

"Tiout" fell behind by ten points, and Wisconsin coach Ryan urgently called the first timeout of the game.

…………

…………

As a team that has reached the finals, Wisconsin's ability to adjust is effective and quick. In the first offensive round after the timeout, it changed the previous offensive decline and moved Yang to the three-point line to grab the backcourt. Josh

Gasser completed a very satisfying air cut and layup.

Wisconsin turned the trend, but Duke's offense had problems. Wisconsin, which switched to defense, began to attack and break through with the ball, control the passing route, and wanted to use mistakes to chase Duke's 9-point lead.

As Duke's only passer responsible for moving the ball in a wide range, Young immediately took over the ball and passed "cannonballs" to the opposite corner.

I don't know what happened, but Winslow and Quinn Cook wasted two excellent three-point opportunities that were always guaranteed.

On the sidelines, Wisconsin coach Ryan was about to applaud his players to encourage their defensive performance in this round, but he found a ghostly figure running inside and hitting the ball two-thirds of the way out of the basket.

Went back.

"Sam, stuck, stuck, stuck, you are a power forward, you can't let Young rush in so easily for a tip-in." Successful defense turned into continued loss of points. Coach Ryan directly addressed Decker, the person responsible for the accident.

"Hair dryer mode" is turned on.

Even with the "hairdryer" turned on, Wisconsin did not avoid the fate of losing backcourt rebounds one minute later.

Although Decker tried his best to squeeze Young away from the basket, Young, who had the advantage in both height and wingspan, did not compete with Decker for strength at all. Instead, he used his 228-meter wingspan to quickly rebound the ball in the air.

He took it out and threw it towards the blind spot behind his field of vision.

"What a free pass. It seems that Young really believes in his teammates. If he didn't trust his teammates so much, this ball would have been a 100% mistake." The ball just fell into the hands of Quinn Cook who was running here.

In his hands, Reggie Miller couldn't help but admire the courage of this young man.

"At 23:12, Duke's lead reached 11 points again. Wisconsin's Ryan now has to think about how to deal with Duke's core Young. Without taking the ball or taking the shot, Duke's offense

The system is still going smoothly." During the TV pause, Reggie Miller and Albert began to discuss Wisconsin

"The trouble on the defensive end is not troublesome, but the trouble on the offensive end is Wisconsin's main trouble. About half of the first half, Wisconsin made five turnovers, and all five of these turnovers were caught by Duke.

They successfully counterattacked five times, which was an important reason why they fell behind;

What they have to do now is to improve their success rate, avoid mistakes, and try to get Duke to play positional battles. They can use their bodies in positional battles to put them into an uncomfortable state. If it still doesn't work, then the defensive end will be five versus three.

, others shorted.”

Maybe Albert's words were heard by Ryan. As Decker cut to the basket and scored two points in the offensive round, Wisconsin immediately strengthened its defensive hardness and control of the passing route. In the first twenty seconds, Du

Ke's offensive movement and air cuts were repeatedly frustrated.

At the 22nd second, Tyus Jones once again took back the ball and made tactical gestures with several people on the right wing.

At the 23rd second, Yang, who was the core of this tactic, immediately stopped running across the baseline from right to left after receiving the signal, and began to run counterattack to the right of the center of gravity of the tactic;

Decker, who was chasing Young, ran back a few steps before hitting the first screen: Winslow.

Winslow's shoulders are not broad and his body is not heavy. Decker only delayed a little time and passed the first screen.

Is the first cover over?

How could it be possible? Duke's second screen followed, this time it was Duke's second-best screen, Marshall Plumlee.

Facing Decker being entangled, Kaminsky raised his arms like a conditioned reflex to block Yang's three-pointer.

If you don’t give me three points, I’ll give you two points.

Young was not sloppy at all when receiving the ball. With a flick of his left wrist, he took advantage of the space under Kaminsky's crotch and passed the ball towards the vacuum zone inside;

"Bang"

"What a wonderful pass. Only a master-level genius would dare to make such a dangerous move."

Reggie Miller could no longer hold back his praise for a beautiful pass.
