37. Make the Trojans great!(1/2)

The teammates rushed towards Li Ao again.

At this moment, their emotions of excitement, surprise, and fear emerged together.

If Li Ao hadn't noticed that Arenas was about to make a move, Arenas would have taken the shot... It's not impossible to make the shot!

Arenas scored 29 points and 7 assists in a single game tonight. Both points and assists set new college career highs.

This performance is amazing!

In terms of stability, they have encountered a better scorer this season, Eddie House.

But in terms of oppression, Arenas is even worse!

And Li Ao ended that potential danger!

Granville was so excited that he jumped directly on Li Ao's back. Li Ao started a round of hugs again. His teammates on the bench also rushed into the field and surrounded Li Ao.

But when it came time for Sam Clancy, he turned around and left... only to hear Li Ao mutter: "It's really unsociable."

Sam Clancy:[○?`Д′?○]

This friend is indeed worthless!

Amid Henry Bibby's shouts, Li Ao and his teammates returned to the bench.

Henry Bibby made personnel adjustments and replaced Sam Clancy with Shelby Jordan, giving the latter a chance to circle the corner.

Granville, Li Ao, White Mamba, and Brusenthal continue to play.

The break passed quickly and the players from both teams returned to the court.

The Wildcats fielded a starting lineup of Gardner, Arenas, Richard Jefferson, Michael Wright and Woods.

The referee blew the whistle to start overtime and threw the ball into the air. Woods relied on his outstanding bounce speed and the longest wingspan among the 24 players tonight to easily win the jump ball, and the Wildcats took the lead!

Gardner received the ball and passed it to Arenas. Arenas advanced to the frontcourt and continued to play singles against Li Ao's defense!

Li Ao's defense is still the same, covering the regular shooting space, making Arenas more difficult to shoot, and allowing Arenas to use more technical changes to shoot.

Arenas made 10 of 19 shots in regular time, including 3 of 7 three-pointers, plus 6 of 8 free throws to score 29 points. Arenas was highly confident. He stopped and took a step to get rid of Li Ao's interference, and took a two-point shot... This shot

Crooked!

White Mamba protects the defensive rebound.

In the transition between offense and defense, Granville broke through and passed to Brusenthal. Brusenthal caught the ball inside the free throw line and attracted Richard Jefferson to cover up. Li Ao went around behind Brusenthal. Brusenthal

Sental got excited and played a pass behind his head. Li Ao was almost intercepted by Arenas who rushed up, but luckily he was able to protect him.

Arenas rushed over and turned around to grab it again. Li Ao raised the ball, jumped, and shot...

The ‘killer’ effect is still there!

Overtime is counted as the ‘remaining time of the game’!

The ‘catching and shooting expert’ had 3 mid-range shots, the ‘killer’ had 10 mid-range shots, and the overall mid-range shot soared to 87!

Tonight, he already had a good touch and hit the mid-range shot again!

With 9 of 11 shots and 3 of 4 free throws, he continued to set a new personal scoring high with 21 points in a single game, the first 20 points in a single game in his college career!

In the transition between offense and defense, Arenas continued to play singles, more determined than in the previous round.

But facing Li Ao's defense, Arenas made an emergency stop jumper!

Brusenthal held on to Woods to protect the defensive rebound!

Li Ao's eyes lit up, it's finally time!

Arenas's attack just now took more energy to perform technical movements, and his shooting force was no longer controllable!

The reason - serious decline in physical strength.

Compared with Li Ao who tries his best not to do unnecessary things on the court, Arenas is completely opposite. He will definitely do a lot of unnecessary things that he can do.

Speaking of defense, Arenas is obviously a black hole, but he consumes no less energy than a defensive player like Rick Anderson.

On the offensive end as well, Arenas loves to show off his skills. The better his condition, the more he loves to show off.

It would be better to switch to an ordinary opponent. When he met Li Ao, who was much taller and wingspan than him, and had good defensive stability, Arenas played into overtime, but his physical strength was only enough to support him to use his skills to get rid of Li Ao's shooting interference. When it came to shooting

By then I was already exhausted.

In the transition between offense and defense, Brusenthal attacked from close range, turned around and took a step, grabbed the ball and jumped to avoid Woods' interference, and hit the layup!

101 to 97, the Trojans lead the Wildcats by 4 points!

When the Wildcats were on offense, Gardner did not pass the ball to Arenas this time. He pushed into the frontcourt and singled out Granville. He faked a break and made a step-back three-point jumper... and it went in!

The Trojans players looked serious. The game is not over yet! The situation is still serious!

Arenas is not the only strong opponent on the other side.

When Shelby Jordan served Granville, he first laughed, and then gave two instructions on how to adjust the defensive end.

Granville has long been used to it, automatically blocking the previous sentence, nodding, then advancing to the frontcourt, breaking through and launching an attack.

Facing Granville's breakthrough and Brusenthal's close-range scoring threat, the Wildcats' defense began to shrink inside.

Li Ao keenly discovered the changes in the opponent's defensive end, slipped to the baseline and made a wide circle to the right at a 45-degree angle.

Brusenthal received the ball on the left side of the three-second zone and passed a long pass to Li Ao.

Li Ao caught the ball at a 45-degree angle and shot two points...hit again!

Granville and Brusenthal pushed the opponent's defense inside, and White Mamba was there to contain him from outside the three-point line. Seeing that Li Ao had good touch, White Mamba took the initiative to go to the bottom corners on both sides. It was Li Ao's performance time!

In the next few rounds, Li Ao took two shots one step outside the free throw line, one shot on the left side of the free throw line, one shot on the right side of the three-second zone, one counterattack and follow-up layup... 5 times

After shooting, except for the shot on the left side of the free throw line, all the other 4 goals were scored!

During this period, Gardner played very well, scoring 4 points, and also gave Michael Wright an assist. The Wildcats scored 6 points, which was already very good in terms of overtime performance.

But he couldn't hold it back and Li Ao suddenly exploded and scored 8 points in a row!

111 to 106, the Trojans' lead expanded to 5 points!

The opponent's No. 0 also scored 29 points. The Wildcats' No. 0 couldn't stand it anymore!

In the past few rounds, he has been opening up space on the wings, watching helplessly as the opponent's No. 0 scored and caught up.

He wants to fight back!

Richard Jefferson, who was serving, saw that Arenas was also about to serve, so he could only serve to him.

Arenas advanced quickly, his momentum was like a short gun with the safety on, and he was filled with murderous intent.

Li Ao stayed at the top arc. Now he was so excited that he seemed not to feel tired.

Arenas wanted to make a sneak attack and break through with a fake move, but instead of moving forward, he directly took a step forward and jumped out.

Li Ao, who was highly focused, judged the opponent's movements, quickly moved sideways, jumped and extended his hand.

Arenas's take-off height is not as high as before. Although Li Ao's take-off height has also been affected, his jumping is average, and his height and wingspan are his advantages.

Li Ao successfully interfered with this ball!

Arenas scored a three-pointer!

Michael Wright actively rushed and hit the ball, but unfortunately he only hit the ball from the left side of the basket to the right side of the basket. Granville took it back and grabbed the rebound and counterattacked!

The angry Arenas continued to be angry and ran back hard. Not to mention, he did a really good job blocking this time. When Granville rushed into the three-second zone, Arenas was right in front of him.

Granville didn't stop and dived into Arenas' arms while pushing the ball to the right.

Li Ao followed up to catch the ball, took off with one step, and pushed the ball toward the backboard... hitting the board into the frame!

With 14 of 17 shots and 3 of 4 free throws, Li Ao continued to set a new personal single-game scoring record, scoring 31 points!

113 to 106, the Trojans' lead expanded to 7 points!

The Wildcats called a timeout, and Root Olson was in bad condition. His remaining hope was dashed by the impulsive Arenas.

But at this point, he has to use Arenas more and more, otherwise he will not even have a chance to struggle.

He sent out a lineup of Gardner, Arenas, Luke Walton, Michael Wright, and Woods to fill the offense.

On the other side, Henry Bibby made the opposite choice. With 1 minute left and a 7-point lead, he replaced Nate Hale, Li Ao, Shelby Jordan, Jarvis Turner, and Charlie.

Si's combination focuses on defense.

After the timeout, Gardner stepped back from the outside and fired a three-pointer... He missed. Michael Wright grabbed the ball and threw it to Luke Walton. Luke Walton missed the three-pointer... Woods made a tip-in, too.

Not entering.

This time Charles protected the defensive rebound and hit three irons in a few seconds. The hopes of the Wildcat players were completely shattered.

Nate Hale received the ball and protected it. After advancing to the frontcourt, it took time. The Wildcat players did not press anymore and their mentality was shattered.

When the 35-second attack time was about to end, Nate Haier passed the ball to Li Ao, and Li Ao took the ball and shot... He was knocked down by Michael Wright, and the shot was destroyed, but he got two free throws.

Amid the cheers of the fans at the scene, Li Ao made two free throws, 115 to 106, and the Trojans secured the victory!

Even though Gardner caught the ball and rushed forward to hit a three-pointer more than one meter away from the three-point line, he could not save the defeat.
To be continued...
