Chapter 26 High Level Confrontation

With Thompson's extra free throw, Saint Mary High School chased the score to 8-12.

Offensive and defensive transition, Mu Qiao kicked off the baseline from high school.

Ron pushed forward with the ball, and Murphy was pressing close to the center line, and several attempts to avoid it failed.

Su Yang originally wanted to go up to the wall to cover, but considering that there was enough time for the attack, he stopped at the spot to observe.

Unexpectedly, the basketball suddenly flew towards him, and Ron raised his hand at the same time, indicating that he would organize the attack.

Su Yang trotted a step, raised his hand to catch the basketball, took advantage of the situation to put on a three-threat pose, and turned his head to observe the half-court position.

At this moment, Ron had already led Murphy to the left corner, while the Saint Mary High School players were piling up to the right.

"With so many people defending, it's difficult to implement tactics." Su Yang thought in his heart, and slowly brought the ball to the top of the arc.

The defensive focus of the entire Saint Mary High School team followed him, and the positions in the half court became sparse again, and there was a large space under the basket. Su Yang immediately raised his hand and signaled: "Let's play an air cut tactic at the 3rd position!"

Su Yang gestured down, passed the ball directly to Taylor who was standing on the left elbow, and then ran to the left sideline.Ron came running from the left corner and came running toward him, making it clear he was going to set an off-ball screen, but they were just bait.

The defensive focus of St. Mary's High School followed the two shifted to the left half, and on the right half, Harley cut diagonally from the elbow area, rushed to the right corner, set up a wall to block Todd, and Bronny took the opportunity to get rid of Defensive, go straight to the paint.

Taylor hit the ground and passed the ball, and Brownie took two steps in his hands, ignoring the threat of Campbell's block, and hit a layup.

boom!The basketball rebounded into the net, 14 to 8.

There was applause in the arena, Campbell picked up the basketball and retreated out of bounds, and Murphy sprinted forward after catching the ball.

Saint Mary High School launched a fast break, but Mu Qiao High School was already prepared and completed the defensive position ahead of schedule.

The sneak attack failed, Murphy stopped the ball at the top of the arc, and raised his hand to make a tactical gesture.

Thompson kicked off immediately, covered the elbow area, and went straight to the baseline.

Su Yang followed all the way and found that Thompson's running route was exactly the same as before, and it was still a FLOPPY tactic.

There is nothing new, but it is really easy to use. After all, it is a common tactic used by NBA-level teams.

Especially for teams like the Spurs, Warriors, Trail Blazers, etc. that launch offense through the guards, there are all kinds of variants. The main reason is that the FLOPPY tactic allows all players to participate in the offense, and it can also greatly weaken the opponent's defense and wrapping. folder.

Thompson used the screen twice, and finally rushed to the 45-degree three-point line on the right, bending over to receive a pass from Murphy.

Perhaps because of his previous experience, Brownie switched defenses and blocks ahead of time without waiting for Su Yang to shout to remind him.

Seeing that his teammates were so strong, Su Yang turned around and got stuck, ready to help fight for defensive rebounds.

That once thought that it had been a long time since the basketball flew to the basket, so he subconsciously turned his head to check.

Thompson no longer had a basketball in his hand, and everyone looked at the short corner on the right, and Su Yang turned his head accordingly.

I saw Todd take off with his hands together, and made a steady three-pointer with a wide open shot. The basketball hit the circle and hit the net.

14 to 11, the bench of St. Mary's High School cheered and shouted, and the audience showed doubts.

"My pot, my pot!" Su Yang raised his hand to signal, feeling a little regretful in his heart.

Obviously, apart from Thompson, St. Mary's High School has other players who are more powerful. Otherwise, Thompson alone would not be able to reach the state championship finals. You should not ignore other players. This is your own stupidity.

Offensive and defensive transition, Mu Qiao kicked off the high school.

Ron dribbled the ball forward, and at the center line, he encountered Murphy's close-fitting press, and there was also a double-team situation.

Ron didn't hesitate, raised his hand and threw the ball to the right wing, signaling again that Su Yang would organize the attack.

Su Yang took the ball and brought it to the top of the arc as usual, while opening up the space, while observing the opponent's position.

In a blink of an eye, the entire Saint Mary High School team was in an inverted V formation, and the entire Saint Mary High School team was marking one by one.

"Since this is the case, there is no need to engage in any complicated tactics, just pick and roll."

Su Yang made up his mind, lowered his center of gravity and accelerated to the left. Seeing Thompson twist his hips sideways to catch up, he decisively changed hands and changed directions, and dribbled the ball to the right, while shouting for a pick-and-roll, sounding particularly anxious.

Taylor heard the sound, stepped up and lifted it up, and set up a wall on the right elbow to completely block Thompson.

Su Yang took the opportunity to get rid of the chase, and plunged into the inside like a diver.

Campbell hurriedly switched defenses to intercept, and Taylor, who was temporarily unguarded, turned around and cut to the basket.

Out of the corner of Su Yang's eyes, Su Yang noticed that his feet continued to kick and run, but he threw the ball above the basket.

Taylor took off with tacit understanding, the ball arrived at the man and the timing was perfect.

With a bang, it was another empty catch dunk.

15 to 11, Mu Qiao High School firmly holds the lead.

Su Yang turned around to retreat, and Ron ran to his side: "I thought you didn't bother to play basic tactics."

Su Yang responded with a smile. Compared with the pick-and-roll just now, the previous few tactics seem to be multivariate equations and basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It is indeed a bit complicated in comparison, but the pick-and-roll tactics belong to the foundation of all tactics and are always applicable.

Offensive and defensive transition, Saint Mary kicked off.

Murphy dribbled the ball at the top of the arc, gestured FLOPPY tactical gesture again, and Thompson followed suit.

St. Mary's high school tactics are almost the same. Since you can't guard against my tactics, I will keep fighting until you doubt your life, until you actively seek changes, and until you get confused, and finally take away the victory easily. .

Su Yang followed all the way, bypassing two human walls in a row, and finally stuck to the right elbow again.

Thompson held the ball high, perhaps because the available space was too small, he didn't shoot, but put the ball straight into the paint.

Campbell took off to catch the ball. After landing, it was like stepping on a spring, and immediately took off again. Relying on the advantages of bounce and bounce speed, he forced Taylor to put in the basket. He just shouted "AND ONE" loudly, which can be said to be full of confidence.

when!The basketball bounced off the hoop.

Taylor jumped up and reached out to fight with Campbell at the same time, and the basketball was forced to fly to the top of the arc.

Thompson moved hurriedly, but Su Yang was already in place ahead of time and grabbed the ball in his hands.

Muqiao High School launched a fast break, Ron and Brownie followed up on both sides of the right side at the same time, and the audience cheered and cheered.

Su Yang rushed to the three-point line in the front court like lightning, and saw that he hadn't shaken off Thompson, so he slammed on the brakes.

Thompson kept his body and wanted to get close again, but Su Yang kicked the ground again and used the time difference to rush to the free throw line. Facing the interception of Murphy's help defense, he passed the ball without looking behind his back, which was extremely coquettish.

Ron received the ball from the short corner on the right, and took off for a while to make a mid-range shot, but unfortunately the basketball hit the basket and hit the iron.

Thompson rushed to get the rebound, turned around and ran forward, making a long pass from the center line.

Sidney received the ball at the top of the front arc, then passed it to Todd who followed up on the left sideline, and the latter made an emergency stop and made a three-pointer.

when!The basketball bounced off the rim and flew high.

Just when other players looked up to observe the flight trajectory, Su Yang had already rushed to the right sideline, and the basketball fell precisely in front of him as if attracted by him.

Su Yang took the ball and turned his head, and saw that Ron was on the center line at this time, but there was defensive player Murphy beside him.

"You can't pass the ball directly..." Su Yang pretended to give up the fast break and slowly moved forward.

The defensive rhythm of Shengma High School slowed down. Su Yang saw it and suddenly made a long pass. Ron restarted his pace first, and the basketball landed in front of him precisely.

Murphy reacted and wanted to catch up, but was thrown far away, and could only watch Ron score a layup.

17 to 11, Mu Qiao High School once again pulled the biggest point difference, and the first quarter of the game was just over half.

On the sidelines, two middle-aged men, one thin and one fat, stood side by side, their eyes full of surprise.

"The level of high school basketball in Southern California is so strong. I remember that there were not many five-star high school students from Southern California before. How come there are two players with NBA potential in this court?"

"I almost thought I was watching the National Finals..."
