Zhang Yu shook his head in dissatisfaction on the sidelines, but still clapped his hands to show encouragement.
This is not to blame Drew. As a white insider, he has mediocre talent, and he really can't keep up with Taoling Green.
Looking at Drew, he really missed the black and hard guy he scolded many times before time travel.
Although his offense was missed by three meters, he received technical fouls every day, and often suffered cerebral hemorrhage at the end of the game, but he can defend!
After becoming the head coach, Zhang Yu realized how useful it is to have an all-round top defensive and supporting player like Green in the team.
If the Bulldogs have Green, the team will have a lot of changes on both ends of the offense and defense. He doesn't have to pin all his hopes on Curry's explosive seed.
But now, he can only watch the University of Florida players get what they want on the offensive end.
Next season, I must get Green!
Zhang Yu felt ruthless in his heart, and immediately turned his attention back to the field.
The game soon came to the last moment of the first half, and the Bulldogs had the last chance to attack.
Curry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and broke through Taoling Green again. Once Donovan waved his hand, Brewer immediately came to help defend after seeing it.
But Curry shrewdly withdrew to the center line, and McGreen also cut to the inside line in a timely manner, putting Brewer in a dilemma.
He hesitated for a while, but kept up with Mike Green. The last attack allowed Curry to single-handed Taoling Green, but he couldn't let Mike Green layup easily.
Seeing that Brewer didn't come up, Curry slowly came to the top of the arc.
On the court at this time, Curry and Tauring Green are at the top of the arc, and the other eight are crowded near the baseline, as if split into two worlds.
Zhang Yu was very emotional when he saw it, he was familiar with this scene!
As long as the two of Curry are replaced by Green, it will be a world-famous painting of training three-pointers in the dream chasing game.
Curry dribbled the ball steadily, watching the time pass by one minute and one second, and when there were 6 seconds left, he started.
Curry first made frequent changes in front of his body, making Tao Linglin's center of gravity change back and forth, then he suddenly pulled the ball to the left, and paused again, Tao Linglin also deflected his body reflexively.
Curry quickly passed the ball to his right hand again, and Tao Linglin barely kept up, but Curry followed up with a sharp change in front of his body, gaining enough space for his shot, and directly shot a three-pointer!
Tauring Green's block was long overdue, and he could only look back at the basketball gliding through the air, and the red light of the timer came on at the same time below the basketball.
brush!
The basketball crossed a beautiful parabola and fell straight into the net!
At 38:31, the Bulldogs extended their lead to 7 points.
boom!
After the goal was scored, the University of Florida fans were silent, but the Butler fans raised their arms and waved wildly.
Tao Linglin spread his hands and looked at Donovan with helplessness.
Coach, I really can't guard against it!
During the halftime break, the atmosphere in the locker room of the University of Florida was a bit dignified. Donovan frowned and arranged the tactics for the second half:
"Cory, in the second half, you will be the main defense against Curry. Remember, you must not let him shoot a three-pointer! You put one side of the space for him to break through. Al, you can raise your position, and you can properly empty Campbell. Help defend when you come in, understand?"
Horford and Brewer hurriedly nodded to express their understanding.
Donovan nodded in satisfaction:
"Very good, this game must be won. I know that many media say that the heat must die, but we are different. We play as a team and win with tactics. How can we lose to a single-core team like Butler? Basketball It should be a five-person sport! Our advantages will be shown in the second half, come on!"
The players responded loudly, and Horford and Noah looked at each other, seeing the fighting spirit in each other's eyes.
This is also their basketball philosophy, otherwise the four of them would not have fought for another year for Buddha University.
They firmly believed that as long as the four of them were still together, the Buddha would be invincible!
The 15-minute intermission ended quickly and the game resumed.
Donovan was a little surprised when he looked at the court, Curry was still there!
At this point, the Bulldogs lineup was Curry, Julian Beko, AJ Graves, Campbell and Engelman.
The Buddha University is Brewer, Humphrey, Horford, Richard and Powell.
Both sides sent two substitutes, and the other starters had a rest in the first half. Only Curry played the full 10 minutes of the first half, but he is still on the court.
"Ronan, do you really want Stephen to play the whole game? His physical fitness is not very good." Stevens said with some concern.
"This is his own choice." Zhang Yu sighed softly, looking at Curry on the field.
Curry supported his knees with his hands, panting heavily, but looked at the opponent's players full of fighting spirit.
He recalled his conversation with Zhang Yu in the morning.
"Stephen, it is difficult for our offense to match the strength of the opponent, especially after you are off the field."
"Boss, let me play the whole game."
"Your physical fitness... can you hold on?"
"We reached the top sixteen. I don't want to leave any regrets. I want to prove to those people that they are wrong. Not only can I play in the NCAA, but I can also help the team win the championship!"
Curry wiped the sweat from his forehead, took Julian Beko's serve, and came to the frontcourt.
Facing Brewer's defense, he suddenly accelerated and rushed past Brewer by taking advantage of his speed.
But Brewer reacted quickly and kept up with Curry, only slightly behind.
Curry came to a position one step inside the three-point line, his body stopped suddenly, and he stopped and started quickly. He used the change of rhythm to shake off Brewer, came to the basket, and avoided the blockade of the substitute center Richard of the University of Florida. Cover, hit a backhand layup and hit the rebound.
After landing, Curry punched hard.
He must win this game!
But looking back, Horford succeeded in singleting Engelman in the low post, making Curry's score wiped out.
In the next few minutes, Curry turned into a lone hero, fighting against a team on his own.
He tried his best to hit a three-pointer here, but looking back, Horford was overwhelmed under the basket, easily running over Campbell or Engelman, and easily scoring points.
By the time both starters returned to the court, 5 minutes had passed in the second half.
Although Curry was struggling to support, the University of Buddha managed to catch up with the score and was only one point behind the Bulldogs 48:49.
Zhang Yu watched the opponent gradually catch up with the score, but breathed a sigh of relief.
The biggest advantage of Buddha University is that it has four strong starters, can maintain the strength of the lineup, and can often open the score when both sides come off the bench.
But now relying on Curry, the Bulldogs have survived the most difficult period.
While the first-half lead was wiped out, it was enough that the Bulldogs had a level playing field with the starters back on the field.
