Chapter 39 Hidden dangers, championship finals
As time goes by March, the second round of the Grand Twelve League playoffs has also started, only one day apart from the first round of the game.
After all, time is tight, so we must quickly decide the playoff champion in the region and decide to participate in 68 colleges and universities in March Crazy.
The NCAA's real drama that has attracted millions of people has always been March crazy.
The rest, whether it is a routine or a playoff in the division, is just foreplay.
The University of Oklahoma is indeed not strong. Nate Carter, the team's top scorer, has been transferred to school and has been in the football supervisor for a year. If you really count it, you are already a senior five this year, but you still have no hope of entering the NBA. It can be seen that you are not strong enough.
During the game, although he lost his explosion and flexibility, Li Ke still relied on his strength and speed to easily lock Nate Carter on his targeted video research before the game.
The second scorer Longa Longa is a Kenyan center, tall and strong, with great physical fitness and rough skills, but it still makes the inside of the University of Texas in chaos.
The final winner was still the University of Texas, with Du Jun scoring 32 points, and Li Ke also scored 26 points in the first game of the playoffs, once again raising his personal single-game scoring record.
In a final victory, the University of Texas entered the second round of the Big 12.
Even though I won the ball, the University of Texas still exposed some hidden dangers in this game:
"The University of Texas's inside line can't even stop Longagal. How should they deal with Greg Oden who ruled the NCAA basket this season and the Alligator's star inside line group?"
"Daida is too biased in science. Their external line is very strong, but the internal line is too weak. In March crazy, there will definitely be problems..."
"In this year's NCAA, the championship hit is still the University of Florida, and at most it is Ohio State."
“…”
As the defending champion, he has no damage to his strength compared to the championship season, and he has even made up for the game.
It also swept across the Southeast League where he is in. Such a University of Florida Gators has long been the NCAA champion this season, and it is no longer a hit.
For the University of Texas, which is interested in winning the championship, the worse news is that this alligator is very restrained by the German University.
"The inside of the alligator is the strong point, and the inside of the longhorn is the weakness. The outside of the alligator may not be as good as that of the Germans, but the existence of Cory Brewer also makes them not lose too much. Overall, the alligator is naturally stronger."
There is also Ohio State University, and the Buckeyes' rise is the same as that of the German University. The phenomenon-level freshmen joined and immediately became one of the strong teams.
But there is a difference. Ohio State is relatively balanced, with Oden in the inside, Conley and Dai Quinn Cook in the outside, and more championship-winning than the top-heavy German University.
...
Two days later, the University of Texas easily defeated Oklahoma State, which ranked seventh in the regular season in the semi-finals.
There is no insider raging this time. Although Oklahoma State's top scorer is also an insider, this insider is quite special.
Mario Bogan, a power forward, has been in the ball supervision for two years due to transfer and off-court issues. Like Nate Carter of the University of Oklahoma, he is both a big five this year. He is only 2 meters tall and is short and stubborn, which poses little threat to the University of Texas.
Rick Barnes changed Li Ke to the fourth position, directly solving this possible hidden danger.
Mario Bogan is very powerful. During the routine competition, Li Ke and him beat him.
At that time, Li Ke was still very surprised that this guy was so powerful that he had never heard of it. He was still too short. Although his strength was strong, his speed was slow and not flexible enough.
Otherwise, just this kind of strength should have a place in the NBA.
This time, after gaining weight, Li Ke easily solved Mario Bogan.
However, the outside of Germany lost Li Ke's defense. James Ancurry and Terrell Harris played hard, but they still couldn't beat Xiao Du who scored 34 points and Li Ke who scored 20 points again.
Germany won easily and entered the finals and will play against the University of Kansas again.
Before the final, Germany and Kansas had two days of preparation time.
Li Ke has not been idle these two days, and his morning jogs remain unchanged every day. From the previous lap and a half, he has been approaching nearly two laps.
Two laps are equivalent to completing the task, which means that Li Ke is about to complete the task.
However, his endurance did not upgrade again because of a lap that was about two laps to a morning jog.
"Levels C to B should be a big improvement, you can see one or two from the empty cutting skills..."
Li Ke’s current score is still very dependent on empty cuts, and the D-level three-pointers are too limited, so he doesn’t make much shot.
C-level mid-range shots can make a fortune in the NCAA, but since he finished playing Kansas last time and got C-level mid-range shots, he has only used mid-range shots in team training and confrontation games.
Only the coaching staff and teammates of De University knew that Li Ke had another mid-range shot that was more accurate than three-pointers.
In the actual game, no one knows that Li Ke will be shooting in the middle.
On the one hand, he does have the idea of hiding tricks.
From the routine game to the first two rounds of the playoffs, the opponent was not strong, his empty cut and occasional three-pointers were enough to get him a high score that satisfies himself.
The real stage of NCAA is still March Crazy. When encountering a strong enemy and then hitting a higher-level mid-range shot, it will be a strange move, just like the previous routine match against Kansas.
At that time, if Li Ke had not caught Kansas off guard by his three-pointer and helped him score 8 points in a row, Texas, which collapsed at the beginning of the second half, would have been unable to recover its already huge disadvantage as a gap.
On the other hand, CNY is different from three-pointers. Three-pointers can open up space, while CNY takes up space.
Li Ke doesn't know how to play singles, he can only catch the ball and shoot.
This means that he needs the coaching staff to arrange tactics specifically to give him space and the right time to make a mid-range shot.
Rick Barnes of course arranged the tactics, but the problem is that Germany is not short of mid-range shot experts, and Du Xiao is a higher mid-range shot expert. Augustine and Abrams' mid-range shot levels are not much different from those of Li Ke now.
The tactics are arranged, but most of the time, the one who executes tactics and makes mid-range shots is not Li Ke, but more of it is Xiao Du, followed by Abrams.
Augustine's pick is similar to Li Ke, but if you hold the ball, Augustine's priority will be before Li Ke.
So, the second reason is that Li Ke doesn't have much chance to shoot, and what the team needs more is his empty cut and three-pointers.
With the addition of two reasons, Li Ke's CET has just been hidden, and he is not in a hurry. It is still a long time before the end of the season. The real big stage is March Crazy, and the real strong opponent is still behind.
...
The final of the Grand Twelve League playoffs is imminent, and a victory or defeat is decided.
As long as you defeat Kansas, Germany will win another important championship this season, a proportional tournament championship is also an important championship.
The playoffs, also known as the championship, are called the championship.
Before the game, Rick Barnes used brief language to explain why this championship is more important in proportion to the championship:
“If we can’t take the Big 12 playoff championship, we have to leave it alone and rely on the selection committee to enter March Madness, although the Selection Committee will not ignore the top four teams in the Big 12 Championship.”
In addition, Rick Barnes also said a few small details: "The championship in the routine cannot be cut by the Nets, the playoffs can be won. The routine is held at home and away games in each college, but the playoffs are in a neutral position..."
Finally, he also emphasized: "Don't underestimate Kansas. We only won 3 points in the last fight. The gap between them and us is almost negligible!"
Kansas also thinks so. Before the finals, the same slogan between Kansas coaches and players was: Revenge!
They were not depressed by the loss of the routine.
On the contrary, their vengeance is hot.
"Listen, routine games are nothing, what really determines everything is the playoffs!"
"In the last moment of the last game, we made a mistake, and the same mistake, we won't make a second time!"
"Everyone is saying that our goal is revenge, wrong, our goal is to defend the title, last season, we were the champions of the Big 12 Championship, and this season, we will still be!"
Chapter completed!
