Chapter 183 The strongest opponent
Chapter 183 The strongest opponent
After the big black dragon finished blocking, he also shouted to the fans on the sidelines. He hoped to encourage the team in this way.
Driven by the big black dragon, the fans of the cavalry team shouted "cavalry team come on!"
The University of Colorado serves from the baseline, and Bruce passes the basketball to Billups at the three-point line.
This time Billups did not make another breakthrough, but kept observing the situation on the court and observing the running positions of his teammates.
Although Billups was known for his fierce offensive firepower in college, his organizational skills were also extremely strong during this period, and he often staged wonderful passing shots in games.
In the next second, Billups found that Bruce was unattended inside, so he directly hit the ground with a long pass and passed the basketball to Bruce accurately.
The big black dragon on the side has been waiting for a long time. Although he is not marking Bruce, he has been observing the situation in the penalty area.
So when Bruce wanted to complete the attack with one hand, the big black dragon immediately appeared in front of him and gave him a head-on block!
The cover of the big black dragon this time can only be described in two words: domineering!
After the opening of the second half, the big black dragon took the lead in the interior, and he seemed to be in charge of everything.
The iron-blooded defense of the big black dragon also greatly infected the other teammates of the cavalry team. Everyone defended very desperately, as if this game was the finals.
On the offensive end, Zhao Qiang suffered from a right shoulder injury and was temporarily unable to shoot with force, so he turned into the team's organizer.
Like Billups, Zhao Qiang's organizational skills are also underestimated.
Faced with Billups' one-on-one defense, Zhao Qiang simply moved forward with two bodies, and immediately accelerated to the left to break through.
In the process of breaking through, Zhao Qiang came back with a left hand and passed the ball. At the same time, he also pierced Billups' crotch, and the basketball was accurately passed to Du Lin on the weak side.
This wonderful pass through the crotch immediately aroused the exclamation of the fans on the scene. Everyone thought that Zhao Qiang's pass was too good.
If the NCAA's top ten balls of the year are selected, Zhao Qiang's pass will definitely be on the list.
After Du Lin received the basketball, he raised his hand and threw it directly outside the three-point line. After the basketball drew a wonderful arc in the air, it fell directly into the basket.
Du Lin made this crucial three-pointer!
After the opening of the second half, the mental outlook of the entire cavalry team changed drastically. Everyone focused on the game, and everyone's goal was the same:
That is to win this game.
In the next 5 minutes, the cavalry team relied on Zhao Qiang's organization, the big black dragon's inside defense and Du Lin's offensive firepower to successfully overtake the score.
So far in the game, Billups has only rested for 1 minute, resulting in a great decline in his physical fitness, without the ferocious offensive firepower of the first half.
The University of Colorado team without Billups' offensive firepower, it is difficult to compete with the Cavaliers.
In the end, the Cavalry defeated the University of Colorado with a team basketball game and successfully broke into the top 32 without breaking the embarrassing record of being eliminated in the first round of the top seeded team.
The whistle blew and the game ended. Under the leadership of Zhao Qiang, all the players of the cavalry team stood in the middle circle. Everyone put their hands on the shoulders of others to form a circle and shouted: "Cavalry team, we must win!"
In the minds of the cavalry players, after the baptism of this game, everyone's mind will become mature, and the March Madness game will officially start from this moment.
The game ended and night fell. After Zhao Qiang returned to the apartment, he quickly opened the system interface to see if his attribute points were enough to buy a bottle of [Injury Recovery Potion]
Zhao Qiang opened the attribute points and found that after winning the game, the system rewarded 500 attribute points, and he could only buy one bottle of [General Injury Recovery Potion], which could only recover 30% of shoulder injuries.
However, Zhao Qiang himself has a [Supreme Body Protection] purple badge, and the passive skills of this badge are also very helpful for recovering from injuries:
Every day you rest, you can recover 30% of your injuries.
Zhao Qiang calculated that there are still two days before the next top 32 match, which is enough for him to recover to 90% of his state.
Although he couldn't recover to 100%, Zhao Qiang thought it was enough for him to play at a normal level in the game.
In the next game, the Cavaliers will face the University of Nebraska led by Tyronn Lue.
Although Director Lu was a diligent role player after entering the NBA, the brightest moment of his career was when Iverson stepped over him...
But at this time, Director Lu in college was a veritable ace player of the University of Nebraska, the head star.
Tyronn Lue, like Billups, also led the University of Nebraska to the top 32 by himself.
Before the start of the game, the media from all sides were questioning whether Zhao Qiang could play.
According to the narration of a well-known rehabilitation medicine expert in the United States, Zhao Qiang needs to rest for at least half a month for a right shoulder injury of this level.
In the last game, he was forced to play with an injury, so the hidden danger of injury must be aggravated again, and it is very likely that he will not be able to appear in this game.
All of a sudden, the odds of the favorite cavalry team dropped instantly, and most people were not optimistic about the performance of the cavalry team in the next games of this season.
However, Zhao Qiang still slapped all those who doubted him. Not only did he come back from the front line, but he also opened fire in the top 32 game, scored 35 points, and led the cavalry to the sweet 16. The opponent in the top 16 was Paul Pierce. Headed by the University of Kansas.
As a traditional strong team, the University of Kansas has brought together many powerful players this season, and their goal is also the final championship.
Through past life memories, Zhao Qiang knows very well that the University of Kansas this season can be called the strongest year in their school history, with three players entering the NBA.
The most well-known is of course Paul Pierce, the other two are Reeve LaFrentz and Scott Pollard.
All three were first-round picks in the NBA, and Riff LaFrentz was the No. 98 pick in the [-] class, which was higher than Pierce's draft pick.
If LaFrentz was born a few years later and played in the small ball era, he is very likely to become the second Gasol Jr.
As a spatial insider, LaFrentz can shoot 37% of his three-pointers throughout his career, and he also has a good ability to block shots, but he has always been regarded as a representative of soft guys in the 90s.
But he is a complete killer in the NCAA arena.
Another star insider at the University of Kansas, Scott Pollard, is the complete opposite of LaFrentz's playing style. He plays tough and is willing to do all kinds of dirty work. Come with strong rebound protection.
Needless to say, Paul Pierce, the head star of the University of Kansas, is the MVP of the Big [-] League Championship this season, and the best team in the United States.
It can be said that the University of Kansas is the strongest opponent the Cavaliers have encountered this season. .
