Chapter 21 5 consecutive victories and the first shot
It is not uncommon for one person to defend one player, but it is very unexpected for a person like Stephen to defend against the offense of three players. In the heart of head coach Benjamin, the importance of Stephen has once again increased by one level. In the team system Inside, from important to very important.
But in this game, the most eye-catching stats are Brooks. In this game, he scored 27 points, made [-] of [-] shots, and made [-] of [-] free throws. In comparison, only Coupard's [-] points, [-] rebounds and three blocked shots.
Stephen still has zero points, but he took the third place in the team in the last game. At the same time, although the data of eight rebounds, three assists, three blocks and three steals is not conspicuous, it is not shameful, because it is not because he has no shots. , but did not shoot at all.
After winning both away games, the Trojans of Southern California have achieved four consecutive victories in the opening game, tying the best opening performance in history, and breaking the record by winning another game, creating the best start in history. Benjamin couldn't help but Don't think about it that way.
The fifth game was against the Cougars of Washington State University at home. It used to be similar to the University of Southern California in strength, but today after adding a few outstanding players and winning a few games in a row, Benjamin was full of confidence and no longer placed Washington State University on the list. His eyes are clear, especially after hearing that Washington State University has not recruited any famous freshmen this year, it makes him full of confidence.
The game really developed as Benjamin imagined at the beginning. For the sake of safety, Benjamin did not directly adopt the formation of one big and four small as in the previous game. It was still a traditional lineup, and Stephen still appeared in the starting lineup. In the middle, before the game started, Stephen received a call from his aunt, saying that he would come to the scene to cheer for him, just at the position of the South Stand.
Stephen made up his mind that no matter how many goals must be scored in this game, even if it is a dunk, it would be embarrassing in front of his aunt if it ended with zero points, so from the beginning of the game, Stephen was always looking for opportunities to attack, But because others are used to him not attacking, there are very few chances to hand the ball to him.
Reluctantly shooting or dunking is not what Stephen wants. He is not worried that it will annoy the coach, but he knows the significance of this game to the team, and it is not good to waste opportunities by himself.
Seeing that the team fell behind more and more, the coach of Washington State University couldn't sit still. With a wave of his hand, a newcomer named Kyle Weaver was replaced. He was less than two meters tall and looked very strong.
However, what he replaced was Nick Young's opposing player. The coach didn't give instructions, and Stephen would not take the initiative to switch positions with Nick Young. I didn't expect this guy to perform extremely comprehensively after he came on the field.
He scored, rebounded, and assisted. He also stole one from Nick Young and staged a one-stop dunk. Seeing that Benjamin couldn't sit still, he immediately gave instructions off the court to ask Stephen to deal with this guy.
Stephen didn't find it strange. After Benjamin's last game, he made a special trip to talk to him and explained his status in the team. A full-time defender, no matter what position the forward guard takes, as long as he is the kind of strong body The players are all defended by Stephen. At the same time, he hopes that Stephen can develop his offensive skills earlier. A little offensive ability is better than nothing. At least the opponent dare not give up your defense and attack others. , The team is like a four-on-five, which is very disadvantageous.
Although offense and defense do not conflict, Stephen has always thought that if he expresses himself in offense, it will indeed affect his concentration on defense a little bit, especially when the guy in front of him can make a good pass. Defense is like this, pass defense It is difficult to have both without defense against offense, defense against offense and pass defense.
After this guy made a two-pointer, Stephen secretly smashed his head, and couldn't think about offense any more. He just lost his mind for a while, and this guy seized the opportunity.
But when attacking in reverse, Stephen saw that Nick Young missed a long shot, and the rebound bounced in his direction, but Kyle Weaver on his side went to pinch Nick Young, and no one was defending, or Try throwing a ball, and as you think about it, Stephen leaps into the air to catch the basketball.
Why don't I try to shoot like this, the body has not started to fall after receiving the ball, suddenly this idea appeared in Stephen's mind, yes, my height is exactly parallel to the basket, and at the same time, I am not far from the basket It shouldn't be difficult for him to send the ball gently by himself. When he thought of this, Stephen's hand had already pushed forward, and the ball didn't seem to stay in his hand for a while, and flew towards the basket again.
Both Nick Young and Gabe Pruitt were ready to shoot from the outside. As soon as Stephen threw the ball over, they would shoot immediately. But when they saw that Stephen made a shot himself, they stretched out their hands in surprise to catch the ball. The movement, the mouth is opened wide, it can't be that Stephen didn't catch it well, the two of them came up with such thoughts at the same time.
Stephen's shot still didn't have a good grasp of the strength. The ball landed a little behind, touched the backboard slightly, then bounced back, touched the outer ring of the basket again, and bounced back and forth twice, and finally fell into the basket unwillingly. in the box.
Only at this time did Stephen land on the ground. After seeing the goal, his heart burst into ecstasy. I can finally score a goal, I can finally score a goal.Thinking of this, Stephen frantically tore at his own jersey, and at the same time turned his body to face the position of the South Stand, clenched his fists and waved, his teeth were clenched tightly, and there was a rattling sound in his throat. I will definitely scream like a beast.
Nick Young and Gabe Pruitt also ran over excitedly, one rubbing Stephen's hair vigorously, and the other hitting Stephen with his fist.
"This ball is very ordinary. Why is he so excited?" A fan who was pulled over by a friend to watch the game for the first time asked his friend in puzzlement.
"I don't know either. This is his first goal. It should be. I didn't see him score in the last home game." His friend didn't know much, and responded to him vaguely.
But at this time, the commentator was already explaining Stephen's excitement. This was Stephen's first goal in several games. A person who was considered by many to have no offensive ability finally scored a goal. It is understandable to be so excited. Yes, and his teammates are also so excited, but it proves how united and harmonious the Trojans are, and this is one of the reasons why the Trojans have won consecutive victories this year.
Because although Coppard was also very excited by Stephen's offense, he didn't dare to come over and attack Stephen like Nick Young and the two of them, but he wanted to get involved, so he kept pulling Stephen's jersey from behind. Like a clumsy person who cannot express his feelings.
After turning around and the opponent missed a shot, Stephen grabbed the rebound again, and then immediately threw it to Gabe Pruitt to launch a fast break. He also threw off his footsteps and followed behind. , but today he is extraordinarily motivated.
Gabe Pruitt ran wildly with the ball, Nick Young was parallel on the other side, and the opposing player was chasing desperately. When he felt that the opponent was about to catch up with him, Gabe Pruitt moved the ball to the side With a flick, Nick Young didn't stop after taking over and made a layup directly.
It's a pity that the layup that he thought was foolproof would fail because of too much force. When the ball was about to fall, suddenly a figure rose into the sky, holding the ball with both hands and pouring the ball into the basket again. I can only see a blur, but judging from such an explosive performance, there will be no one else except Stephen.
This guy, if you don't enter, you can't enter, once you enter, it will be endless?Nick Young thought not without resentment, but Stephen just made a tip-up for the ball he didn't make. Thinking of this, Nick Young relieved his resentment, but he had a certain expectation that his chances of scoring would be less in the future.
Sure enough, just as he thought, Stephen seemed to have found the confidence and tricks to attack all at once. During the next attack, Gabe Pruitt saw Stephen running to the basket, his heart moved, and the ball in his hand immediately Throwing high, it looks like a shot but the direction is a bit wrong. At this time, Stephen raised the ball again and dunked the ball into the basket.
He scored three goals in a row and scored six points, which made other people who watched Stephen's game very surprised, but there was an inexplicable excitement in his chest. As soon as a goal was scored, he was out of control and scored three points in a row, and the opponent who was still defending on the defensive end didn't score a point.
Even a lot of professional commentators are constantly discussing. They saw Coach Benjamin put Stephen, a guy who can’t attack, on the field, and he still starts. They have always complained about it. Although Stephen’s defense It also amazed them, but after all, basketball games are all about points. Defense is important, but players who have no effect on the offensive end are really not valued by them.
In this way, Washington State University no longer dared to ignore Stephen as it did at the beginning, but their strength was already inferior to this side, and with the sudden explosion of Stephen, there was nothing they could do. He strengthened his defense against Stephen, but it had no effect.
Stephen seemed to have found the inspiration to attack all of a sudden. Although the opponent paid great attention to defending against his tip-ups, it's not that Stephen can't attack by himself. If he can't shoot, let's dunk.
In this attack, after Stephen got the ball, he was going to pass the ball, but suddenly he saw that from his position all the way to the basket, there was only one defensive player, Kyle Weaver, and their two insiders were just right. They were all on the other side, so Stephen turned around suddenly, using his own strength to push away Kyle Weaver, and went to the basket in two steps. , the body has come to the mid-air, heard a loud noise, the ball fell to the ground, I saw Stephen's body still shaking on the basket.
This was Stephen's first goal to complete the attack independently, and it was also the first time he scored in a sports battle. Such a fiery and fierce performance naturally aroused bursts of cheers and screams.
At the end of the game, the score was 67 to 72, and Stephen's personal data was that he made all six shots, scored [-] points, seven rebounds, two assists and two steals.
