Basketball starts with breathing

Chapter 78 Wrong, it's a zipper
Sanders, who guarded Casey Green, thought it was a real screen when Dan Decau ran for the first time, and waited until his teammates went around to realize that Casey Green's screen quality was not high.

So when Casey Green turned around he didn't even notice.

Who knew that this was a solid cover, blocking Caron Butler from two meters away from Lu Yu.

The first few rounds were fake, and the cover for Dan Dicko was also fake. Everything was to wait for Lu Yu to come out of the bottom corner until Lu Yu wiped it from Casey Green. Blake Stepp just passed the basketball to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu jumped to catch the ball, faced the basket, and made a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

Basketball hit the net.

The fans immediately applauded, and Mark Foyo nodded in satisfaction.

The complexity of this tactic is much more complicated than the Flex, diamond, and horns that the team used before, and it is also the secret weapon of the Gonzaga Bulldogs.

From the very beginning, the team took Lu Yu as the core.

Especially on the defensive end, Lu Yu almost took over most of the team's defense tasks, from the defensive axis to the offensive axis, except for the set of play that allowed Lu Yu to fire infinitely, but there was no set of tactics for Lu Yu. The rest is ready.

This is an incredible thing for any team.

As the team's leading star, Lu Yu's role has always been the patch that fills in the gaps. This is also because the team does have various flaws and is a last resort.

However, few offensive tactics have been specially designed for Lu Yu.

Even infinite fire is only used with some simple pick-and-rolls, and sometimes even pick-and-rolls are not used.

There is only this set of tactics, which the team has been practicing before, but has never been used in the game - it belongs to Lu Yu's tactics.

On the other side, Connecticut Huskies head coach Calhoun frowned.

Although the field is still playing back and forth.

But his mind kept flashing back to the set of tactics that Lu Yu ran just now. It looked a lot like the positioning cover that the team usually uses, but he didn't feel like it. What kind of tactic was it?

From the point of view of play, it is indeed a positioning cover.

Dan Dicko's run in front was a fake position, and then Casey Green turned around and gave Lu Yu a real position cover.

Very simple tactic.

For Gonzaga's No. 10, all it takes is this run to shake off the defender and get the ball in.

But this tactic is also difficult.

Because you have to vote accurately.

But Calhoun always felt that this tactic was different from ordinary positioning screens.

Ordinary positioning cover, the defending side can already judge the position of the person who is covering for you, even if there are two positioning covers in a row, as long as they can bypass or switch defenses in time, they can still interfere.

But this tactic, it is difficult for the players to react.

From the beginning of the round eight, if a player has a defensive loophole, it is estimated that when the basketball reaches Lu Yu, it is a straight-line breakthrough.

Round eight ends...

and many more!

Calhoun's thoughts suddenly got stuck here.

Combination of round eights and positioning screens?

Gradually, he had some eyebrows, and he was going to call a timeout after watching two more rounds.

……

"beep!"

The referee blows the whistle for a timeout.

With 27:19 on the scoreboard, Gonzaga led by eight.

Originally, according to the tactical deployment of the Connecticut Huskies, every player on their field has the ability to score, which can make the Gonzaga Bulldogs worry about the defensive end.

Unexpectedly, Gonzaga's defense did not panic.

Connecticut scored, and they weren't upset, and they went back with another hit.

You go back and forth between the two sides, and as a result, Connecticut's hit rate is not as high as Gonzaga's.

The main reason is that they are still very unfamiliar with this Gonzaga Bulldogs tactic, and they always feel constrained in defense.

On a few balls, Caron Butler went around to catch up with Lu Yu, but Casey Green, who was covering, went straight down. With a flick of Lu Yu's wrist, the basketball led Casey Green to the basket.

"Bangdang" is a deduction.

On the sidelines, the head coach of the Connecticut Huskies said to the players: "Curon, your speed is a bit difficult to match the number 10 on the other side, so let Albert follow."

He chose dislocation defense at this time.

In fact, it was a defensive formation that used Lu Yu as a shooting guard at the beginning.

He now even regrets that he was too rigid in the opening.

"Albert, when you are with Lu Yu, you can't take one step away and kill him. Their tactics are nothing more than a combination of circling eight and positioning cover. You should pay attention to two points. The first is when you go around eight, don't give Lu Yu. The opportunity for Yu to break through directly, the second is Lu Yu's movement after falling into the bottom corner, once he has a tendency to move towards the positioning pile, even if he is dragged, he must be held."

Albert Morin nodded excitedly.

He had long wanted to teach Lu Yu, the number 10 opposite, a lesson, but unfortunately he never had the chance.

Now is the chance.

On the other hand, the Gonzaga Bulldogs did not deliberately arrange it. Mark Foyo just let the players continue to play. He is very confident, because the change of this tactic is more than that.

……

Lu Yu received the ball at 45 degrees on the right, and Albert Morin stared fiercely at Lu Yu.

Lu Yu glanced at the defensive positioning of the Connecticut Huskies, and obviously tightened a lot in the horn position. He smiled and patted the top of the head, and his teammates immediately understood what he meant.

At this time, Dan Dickau in the bottom corner was pulled beyond the three-point line with the help of Casey Green's screen, and Lu Yu dribbled the ball to the elbow area and passed it to the cut Dan Dickau.

After passing the ball, Lu Yu started to run faster.

From the right elbow area to the right bottom corner, and from the right bottom corner along the bottom line for a long time, to the left bottom corner, Albert Morin wanted to curse someone angrily, he followed Lu Yu This way, at least three sets of positioning piles have been encountered.

As a result, Lu Yu ran to the bottom left corner and was about to run back.

He quickly retreated.

Who knew that at this time, Lu Yu made a V-shaped move and ran directly outside the three-point line. Mo Lin wanted to follow, but found that it was another positioning stake.

Angrily, he stomped his feet.

He had just walked all the way, and he only managed to keep up with Lu Yu, but now he can't keep up at all.

Lu Yu received a pass from Dan Dikao at the top of the arc, and Tarek Brown, who was defending Dan Dikao, rushed over, but Lu Yu didn't care about him at all, he just jumped in after a time difference.

One step to an emergency stop and a shot to hit.

The depressed Albert Morin ran back with his head sullen. Lu Yu walked to his side and said with a smile, "Thank you for walking around with me, next time... continue."

……

The Gonzaga Bulldogs' ball rarely reaches Lu Yu, but as long as it reaches Lu Yu, he basically uses tactics to run out of the open position, catch the ball and shoot.

Still one shot right, one missed shot so far.

If there is no chance, Lu Yu can choose to pass to an open teammate, or choose to quickly enter the singles mode.

Connecticut didn't let Caron Butler and Albert Morin switch to Lu Yu. This switch almost didn't turn off Morin, not to mention that Morin was originally Connecticut's top scorer, but he followed Lu Yu. After running so many laps, my stamina plummeted.

Can't even shoot.

Layup legs are also weak.

Originally the two teams were fighting against each other, but now it has become the Gonzaga Bulldogs hanging with the Connecticut Huskies.

Erha just can't beat the bulldog.

Not a heavyweight.

Connecticut head coach Calhoun couldn't sit still. The score on the field had come to 41:29, and the team was already twelve points behind.

It was only at this moment that he realized what Gonzaga's tactics were.

Go to his mother's circle eight, to his mother's positioning cover.

This is obviously the favorite "zipper" of the San Antonio Spurs Popovich!
It may be inaccurate to call it a zipper, it should be an evolution of the zipper.

Because Mark Foyo made a lot of changes on the basis of the zipper, and even changed the original zipper tactics beyond recognition, no wonder Calhoun didn't recognize it for a while.

On the other side, Gonzaga Bulldogs head coach Mark Foyou gestured at the tactical board. Lu Yu pursed his lips and looked worriedly at Connecticut not far away.

"Calhoun should have discovered the zipper strategy now, so the following game..."

He looked up at the dazzling lights above the arena overhead and muttered to himself.

"It was the hardest time."
