Chapter 45: Over-the-shoulder fall(1/2)
"Damn it, this Stalin is so bullying!"
In his own backcourt, Ledel stood up with the help of Dedan Thomas.
At this moment, his face was full of embarrassment.
Being buckled or even buckled to the ground was already humiliated. Lin Xing's cold eyes looked down and stretched out his hands to play with him, which made him feel even more—
If you don’t take this revenge, you will not be a human being!
But the problem is that Lin Xing doesn't match him at all.
Turning his head to UNLV's offense, Lydel held the ball, and Byron Russell was the one who came to defend from the top.
At the sight of Byron Russell, Ledel held his breath and wanted to break in and deduct one.
But who is Russell? This is a bad guy who was very evil before Lin Xing trained. After Lin Xing trained, he became even more vicious.
Ledel wanted to vent his anger, but he was just thinking too much.
He took a step, and then Russell pulled him hard and grabbed him.
The attacking method was too difficult to rush over. Leidel, who had a problem with the offensive choice, jumped straight up and made a mid-range shot.
Russell reacted with this defense, stretched out his long arms and a strong face blocking disturbed.
Bang!
The basketball hit the frame heavily and popped up...
Tavol grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Lin Xing.
With another wave of counterattack, Leidel learned to be smart, and his defense was slow to retreat.
So much so that in the frontcourt, Long Beach directly played a situation where more and less.
Lin Xing, who controlled the ball, passed one to Russell, who had made meritorious defense and was unmarked.
With a clang, Russell dunked the same way and hung it on the basket.
Off the field, Seth Greenberg smiled helplessly and shook his head:
"Star's offense is a dunk, and Byron is also uncomfortable. In addition, Lucios always hits the iron shot, so we have to prepare a few more baskets."
Lin Xing, who continued to stare at Dexter Bernie on the court, expressed his strong agreement. The incident at the training center not long ago was already unbearable for him to look back on.
On the court, after this counterattack, the score was completely opened.
Before halftime, Long Beach had already established a double-digit lead.
Lin Xing spread his hands, and what about the strong showdown of the Great Western Alliance that had been agreed upon?
UNLV head coach Rory Massimino was very anxious and he felt that the team was playing in a mess.
Especially Isaiya Ledel, who made random attacks and was not active in defense at all.
Masimino was a coach with a hot temper. At this moment, he stood off the court, yelling regardless of his image:
"Fk! Isaiya, what are you playing? Pass the damn basketball in your hand, don't keep controlling!"
With this yell, Ledel got angry.
He immediately stuffed the ball to Dedan Thomas, flashed to the side, and flipped his waist, and was simply Ajan on the NCAA field.
Lin Xing, who was standing opposite, shook his head. Just this Lidell, his opponent? He was simply insulting himself!
In the stands at the Pyramid Stadium, NBA scouts were also confused.
"Is this Isia Laidel a little bit wrong with his brain?"
"The offense is over-selling, the defense is not active, and the head coach is also full of thorn attributes."
"I really don't know why Sports Illustrated ranked him before Stalin. Judging from this game, he and Stalin are not on the same level at all."
Jim Linum, general manager of the 76ers, sat in the stands, listening to the discussions of his peers in his ears and shook his head.
After sending away Charles Barkley, the 76ers' record further dived this season.
If nothing unexpected happens, after the season, they will have a very high-ranking lottery.
For this reason, the discussion began early within the 76ers.
The reason why Jim Linham shook his head was—
Before this inspection, 76 people unanimously agreed that Isaiya Laidel was a better choice compared to Lin Xing.
Leidel is a more comprehensive existence, offensive end, breakthrough, shooting, face frame, back frame, and offensive kaleidoscope.
As for the defense, tens of thousands of people stabbed?
Most NBA scouts believe that players like Ledel, who have no major problems in physical condition, have only temporary defensive defence.
After entering the NBA and with professional basketball guidance, defense can be easily improved to a qualified or even top level.
But now...
"If you have a normal brain, it will be enough to polish your defense. Unfortunately, you have an abnormal brain."
Jim Linum shook his head, his eyes already staring at Lin Xing, who was flying up and down on the field.
"Stalin's advantage is that he is young and has more outstanding physical fitness.
But his offensive methods are really scarce, and he is not only breaking through the basket or breaking through the basket..."
He thought of this previous comment on Lin Xing.
After watching this half game, Jim Linham felt that this evaluation was not wrong at all.
Although it is true, Lin Xing's performance gives him the urge to "choose him, you must choose him, you must choose him."
Lin Xing didn't know that in the stands, an NBA general manager who did not want to be named had already set his sights on him.
All he knew was that the game was heading in a one-sided direction.
Leder's brain was thrust, he played without the ball for a while, but UNLV's offense did not improve at all.
It’s not that UNLV cannot do without Ledell. It’s really because Ledell has all the hips on his hips, UNLV has four to five, which is strange if he can beat Long Beach.
Rory Massimino's face turned red with anger. It was at this time that the half-game ended.
With a score of 44 to 28, Long Beach has already led by 16 points.
NCAA only divides the first and second halfs, with only 20 minutes of game time per half, plus a 45-second offensive time limit.
The "Lin Chui" on the commentary seat has even concluded:
"Maybe UNLV still has the possibility of reversing this game, but the probability of reversing is so low that it is only 1% left."
The 15-minute halftime break passed by. When he came back from the second half, Ledel's face was cold.
Apparently, he was scolded.
The humiliation of the opponent, the coach's scolding, the game where the score is behind, and...
At the end of the half, he walked through the player passage and a familiar reporter told him:
His performance was a little 100 million tonight, which has already caused some NBA scouts who were on-site to shake their heads.
Lydel is already a senior, and his NCAA career will not be next season.
Therefore, what he cares most about now is the evaluation of NBA scouts.
The scouts' evaluations fell sharply in one game, and Ledel's mentality collapsed.
He reappeared in the second half, and his face was cold and he was completely out of control.
At the beginning of the second half, Long Beach's ball rights.
Lin Xing passed the ball with half, then watched Laidel run towards him with great surprise and directly rushed to him.
"?"
Lin Xing threw a question mark directly, and Leidel suddenly changed defense, which really surprised him.
It was just an accident. Whether it was Dedan Thomas or Ledel, it was a mass of air for Lin Xing.
Leidel ignored Lin Xing's eyes. He just stared at Lin Xing fiercely and stretched out his long arms.
Lin Xing directly ignored these long arms and dribbled the ball under one crotch.
After the cross step, he accelerated and passed Leidel extremely quickly.
Bernie's repair defense was still one step slower, and UNLV was worse than Duke.
In terms of tactical discipline, the two are not of the same level.
Therefore, Lin Xing played much easier.
Even if he encounters clamping defense, he can use his body to crush his opponent and continue to score.
The same is true for this ball. Bernie made up too slowly on the second floor. When he stood in the position, Lin Xing had already galloped away.
Everick Gray rushed to the basket and put on the ricket guard, making a light layup.
Swish!
