super heavy artillery

Chapter 88
The person who knows you best will always be your opponent.Especially, opponents who are doing the same thing as you.

The University of Washington's backup No. [-] position is a very powerful three-pointer.But he met An Luo, who was also proficient in three-pointers, and it just so happened that An Luo was also proficient in defense.In the end, I can only be defeated.However, he has already demonstrated his scoring ability in front of his home fans.It is conceivable that in future games, he will have more playing time.

Thanks to An Luo's three-pointers in the last few minutes, UCLA finally overtook the score and entered the second half.

Throughout the first half, An Luo was undoubtedly the most eye-catching one on the field.An Luo, who made 8 of 6 three-pointers, scored 18 points, not only the highest in UCLA, but also the highest in the game.For the entire NCAA, there are only a few freshman players who can do it.

During the intermission, Alford asked An Luo if he had any physical problems.After all, An Luo only rested for less than 4 minutes in the first half.In fact, An Luo's style of play consumes relatively little energy. Coupled with his ability to move without the ball, An Luo doesn't feel tired.

The halftime interval of NCAA games is only 20 minutes, so Alford didn't say much. These problems that UCLA currently has cannot be solved immediately.All he needs now is this one win.

"Ann, 5 minutes before the second half, you came with the second indulgence, and you controlled the ball. I will give you the power to fire unlimitedly. There is only one request, to stabilize the score and let Aaron and the others rest for a while." Alford Said to An Luo, then turned his head and called out a few names: "Isaac, Thomas, Jock, Loya, you guys should try to provide some help to An. Especially Jock, you have to come to three at any time Screening for Ann near the end of the line to give him space to score. Of course, your main job is still on the defensive end, to contain the opponent to me. This is what you are good at, and I think you are fine. Right? "

"No problem, Steve!" An Luo nodded.He may not be able to win the game by himself, but it's okay to hold the score for a while.

At 43:38, UCLA led by only 5 points, and the second half began.

The University of Washington sent their starting players, while UCLA took An Luo to the bench.Alford was fidgeting on the sidelines, he was still a little worried.Putting a team on the shoulders of a seemingly ordinary player is a risky thing.But his starting player has played more than the opponent for a long time, and now he is at a disadvantage when he goes up, and he is obviously at a disadvantage.We can only pin our hopes on An Luo. Fortunately, this guy is physically strong enough.

Soon, An Luo let Alford sit on the chair with peace of mind.

When a three-point shooter with a minimum shooting percentage of [-]% can take unlimited shots, it is a disaster for his opponents.The University of Washington is feeling this in full force right now.

After the start of the second half, An Luo became more determined in his shots.In the area within one meter beyond the entire three-point line, as long as there is a trace of space, he will raise his hand and throw it.Joc Goloman did an excellent job of completing the tasks assigned to him by Alford, and his pick-and-roll provided An Luo with many offensive opportunities.

Conversely, the University of Washington's offense has not played very well. The few guys in UCLA who couldn't get the ball on the offensive end used all their energy on the defensive end, which made the University of Washington players suffer a lot.Although they can also score continuously, their physical strength is exhausted very quickly.

When An Luo received a hand-off pass from Joker at a 45-degree angle and hit the fourth three-pointer in the second half, the University of Washington finally called a timeout.

At this time, the second half of the game had only lasted 7 minutes.An Luo has already scored 12 points.Adding the 18 points in the first half, it's already 30 points!However, the difference between the two sides has not changed much.

61:54, only 2 points more than the first half.

But Alford was very satisfied.The current situation is different, and his players are waiting for work.Next, it's time to take away the game.

At the end of the timeout, the University of Washington replaced their No. [-] position and replaced it with the substitute player who played well in the first half, strengthening the offensive firepower from the outside.And Alford also directly replaced his starter.

UCLA, which was ready to go, did not give the University of Washington another chance.They attacked directly and sent the game into garbage time.Like UCLA's current style of play, as long as there is a momentum, it will be overwhelming.It is easy to take away the game in one wave.

In these few minutes, An Luo played off the ball again.His shot frequency has decreased, but his efficiency has improved a lot.Two of three shots from beyond the three-point line, still no two points, no one point.Still, he enjoyed the few minutes he played with the bench the most.Unlimited fire power, it's so cool.

With more than 4 minutes left in the game, the University of Washington replaced all the main players and surrendered.Alford also took advantage of the opportunity to replace An Luo, Holiday and others.Although the game was lost, the fans at the scene still gave the warmest applause.After all, in competitive sports, it is normal to win or lose.

But when An Luo and others left the field, it was a different situation.

Booing all over the sky, he almost threw the mineral water bottle down.

After the game, Alford took An Luo and Alex to the press conference.This is also the first time An Luo participated in a press conference.After winning the domestic provincial and national league championships before, only reporters from the organizers interviewed him.

"An, you must be careful when answering questions and try to be perfunctory. Those guys are not easy to deal with." Holiday told him very carefully when he learned that An Luo was going to attend the press conference.Alford also told him:

"Never express any personal opinions, no matter what words the other party uses to encourage you. They can use your opinions to create any news they want, which may cause unnecessary harm to you."

Following Alford all the way to the conference site, there were still many reporters, and the flash blared, blinding An Luo's eyes.

It was the first time for An Luo to experience such a scene, but he didn't seem too nervous, and answered questions from the media easily.

"Ann, we noticed that you took all the shots from outside the three-point line in this game and lacked confrontation. Many people think this is a cowardly performance. What do you think about this?"

An Luo thought for a while, and answered the question solemnly.

"Uh~ Well, I can only look at it with my eyes wide open. Do you have other ways to look at it?"
