This Forward Is Not Serious
/ This Forward is Not Serious Chapter 6
The new season will soon begin, and the University of Texas's opponent in the opening game is Texas Tech University.
Texas Tech, referred to as Texas Tech, is another NCAA team in Texas.
Yes, the first game was the Texas Derby.
Texas Tech "Ancestor" is poorer than Texas University. The most accomplished in the NBA is Tony Batty, nicknamed "Batman".
'S nickname is pretty loud, and it's the No. 5 show with Duncan in 1997.
But he has not been able to play the strength to match the pick. This season, partnering with "Warcraft" Howard inside, is already the brightest moment of his career.
The ancestors were very poor, and now... also very poor.
The current Texas Tech is basically a team of players who are three stars or even two stars or who are not on the list.
And most of the players are already juniors or seniors with mediocre talent.
Experience is their only advantage.
Playing against such an opponent in the opener is definitely a good start for the University of Texas.
In the first game, Barnes sent Randy Williams, AJ Abrams, Damai James, Durant and Wendell.
Durant served as the team's starting power forward in the first game of the NCAA.
In this game, the University of Texas played away from home and entered the arena. Both Lin Ying and Durant felt for the first time what is called the NCAA basketball atmosphere.
An arena with more than 10,000 people, with flags waving, crowds of people, whistles everywhere, and bustling.
Compared with high school, this atmosphere is several levels stronger.
Even compared with the NBA, it's not bad.
The game hasn't started yet, and the atmosphere has rendered adrenaline-filled.
When it started, the scene was playing drums and shouting slogans. Not to mention playing ball, the eardrum was shocked.
So it's not surprising that the American basketball level is so high.
is like a towering tree, its bottom is too thick.
The game started quickly, Wendell jumped the ball for the University of Texas, Durant hit the ball in the low post, turned over and made a jumper.
The technical movements are very smooth, but the ball is a bit outrageous after the shot is taken. In the end, it only touches the board, almost a non-stick...
Some of the University of Texas fans who rushed to watch the game were taken aback. Is this the third high school student in the United States that they have given high hopes to?
This ball is also a microcosm of Durant's entire game.
Throughout the game, his offensive state was average, and the defensive top man and rebound protection were also poor.
Although Wright's confrontation has improved greatly under Wright's training, he still seems obviously not suitable for the role of power forward.
And the overall defense of the University of Texas is not good tonight. They let Texas Tech score 70+ points on them.
Don't think 70+ is less. Many NCAA rules are different from those of the NBA.
The biggest difference is the time and method of the game. A game is only 40 minutes, and then divided into two halves, each with 20 minutes.
And the team's single attack time is not 24 seconds, but 35 seconds.
This kind of rule will inevitably lead to the slow pace of the game and low scores.
So 70 points is definitely a high score for a team that is not very good at offense.
In the end, the University of Texas lost to Kan Texas Tech 66-73 in the opening game, and suffered a blackout.
Although there was no outstanding performance on the Texas Tech side, 4 people in the team scored in double figures and played a perfect team basketball.
For the University of Texas, Durant scored a team-high 18 points and 8 rebounds, but only made 6 of 17 shots.
And except for him and Abrams who scored 11 points, no one else scored in double figures.
Lin Ying played Durant's substitute this time. He played only 6 minutes, got 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, but didn't score.
encountered a black door, although Barnes cooked a piece of "chicken soup" for the players after the game, but the feeling of loss is inevitable.
Especially for Durant, his performance in the first game can be described as bad.
This is too far from his previous idea of wanting to be the number one basketball player.
When Barnes was gone, he ran to the training hall for additional training.
Lin Ying also followed.
Exhausted after training, two people sat on the sidelines and gasped.
"Am I not suitable to be a team leader?"
Durant eased his breath, turned his head and asked Lin Ying.
The gap between reality and expectations is too great, and his morale has fallen to the bottom.
"I believe you."
Lin Ying said not much, but from the heart.
Whether as a friend or a traveler, he would say so.
Durant looked at Lin Ying for a while, then nodded.
Lin Ying believes in him so much, what reason does he not believe in himself?
After a three-day break, the University of Texas returned to the home court to face the Missouri Tigers, the second opponent of the season.
The strength of the University of Missouri is close to that of Texas Tech. Except for DeMarre Carroll, the talents of everyone else in the team are relatively average.
Back at home, Texas University's performance improved compared to the first game.
Although Durant still shows his hips on the defensive end, the offensive end ushered in a strong rebound.
He scored 25 points and 11 rebounds and shot 11 of 18 shots.
Carol, who was facing him, did everything he could, but in the end he couldn't escape the life of being crushed by his talent.
Under his leadership, the University of Texas also defeated the University of Missouri 71-67 and won the first victory of the season.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Ying got more opportunities in this game. His playing time doubled compared to the first game.
He played for 12 minutes, surrendering 5 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.
And compared to the stats, his defensive rounds are more impressive.
It was a round similar to the original match between the new and old players in the team. He successfully defended the opponent's fast break and protected the defensive rebounds with one defense and two.
Also when facing Carol, he used his body to carry Carol's attack one-on-one, and then gave the latter a big hat.
The University of Texas was still 5 points behind. His big cap boosted the team's morale, and then the University of Texas surpassed the score in the connection stage of the bench!
After the game, there was an excited wolf cry in the locker room of the University of Texas.
Although the strength of the University of Missouri is not too strong, it feels good to win.
There is even a comparison in the first game, which shows their progress in this game.
Things are moving in a good direction.
After the game, Durant and Lin Ying ran to the training hall for additional training.
If you lose, you can understand why you have to go to practice if you win?
After winning, I am excited, and I am so excited to practice!
In short, the training hall is like a girlfriend for both of them.
Compared with the last game, Durant's emotions are different.
After finishing the training, he was also panting on the sidelines, and he was already dreaming about the next game.
"We will win the next game!"
After slowing down, his way of speaking is completely different from after the previous game.
Lin Ying nodded.
The opponent of the University of Texas in the next game is the University of Kansas!
Compared with the previous two teams, Kansas is obviously stronger by one or two grades.
Randy Williams had already introduced it clearly, and it was definitely the strongest team in the big12.
But Williams also said that Brandon Rush is still recovering from his injuries. This is the best news for them.
Without Rush, Durant would have much more room to play.
As long as Durant plays well, Texas University is not without a chance!
The NCAA schedule is not as dense as the NBA, basically one to two games a week.
After nearly a week of preparations, the University of Texas team boarded the plane to Lawrence.
On the plane, the team members are very excited.
The overall strength of the big12 league is average. To win the league championship is the safest way to get into the "crazy three".
To win the championship, Kansas is their opponent.
So all the players in this game are doing their best.
This also includes Durant and Lin Ying.
The hard work and sweat of their summer is for this kind of moment.
After getting off the plane, the team members all went to the hotel to rest to prepare for the night game. Durant and Lin Ying sneaked to the Allen Arena for the night game in advance.
The two of them had to adapt to the venue in advance, but they closed their doors.
Because it was not the head coach leading the team, the security refused to let them into the arena.
Two people can't do it softly, they can only sit at the door and wait for Barnes and the team bus to come.
While they were waiting, dozens of students arrived at the entrance of the arena.
includes some **** girls.
Compared to China, the clothes of American students are much cooler.
In November, you can still see shredded pork.
Durant's eyes gleamed, and his eyes were motionless.
Lin Ying noticed that a bus was coming to the arena, so he stood up and looked over there.
The bus from the University of Texas is not coming, but from Kansas.
The group of students quickly yelled in excitement.
After the bus stopped, the members of the University of Kansas got off the bus one after another.
The short and stout Cheron Collins, the stout Julian Wright, the Sasha Cowan who bowed his head when getting out of the car...
Every time someone came down, Lin Ying's mind began to show some information related to them.
At this moment, there was a sudden scream over there, from the group of girls.
Chamos is down!
1.88 meters tall, slender legs, strong arms, and a handsome face among blacks.
As the head star of Kansas, he has a great opportunity to play in the NBA. It can be said that the money is bright.
This is no longer a priority for mate selection in universities, but of the "girl harvester" type.
Lin Ying turned around and was about to ask Durant to get up, to see if he could get in with the people from Kansas.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Durant's envious eyes.
Durant's words, in terms of talent, are better than Chalmers by several notches, but it is his looks...
He patted Durant on the shoulder.
Waiting to be famous in the NBA, you are as handsome as Jordan!
Lin Ying's idea was right. When the Kansas team entered, the students also went in with them, and they mixed in with them.
Because they couldn't ask, they went around in a circle before they found the visiting team's locker room.
When they changed their gear to warm up, Kansas had been warming up for a while.
And the embarrassing thing is that Kansas took up the entire stadium when warming up, and the two of them could only stare when they entered.
"Let's... don't do this stupid thing next time!"
The successive bumps made Durant a little depressed.
They might as well stay in a hotel and rest like everyone else.
Lin Ying didn't speak, his eyes were on the Kansas players who were training on the court.
He is now like a data entry device, entering the training content of the players on the Kansas field into his mind.
The more he watched, the harder he felt to play the night game.
Kansas is not only talented, but also very tactical.
It's not without reason that Texas University had a trident or a big loss to Kansas last year.
"excuse me?"
They were watching, someone came over to ask them.
It is an assistant coach from Kansas.
When Lin Ying and their team were in the goal hall, they had already been noticed by Kansas.
Just because Lin Ying and the others were wearing training clothes, they didn't know who it was at first.
After a simple exchange, knowing that they are from the University of Texas, the assistant coach didn't say much.
After he returned, Kansas switched from full-court to half-court training, and the content of training changed from tactical training to basic training.
Obviously, they are watching Lin Ying and them.
A very normal logic, who would want to expose their tactics to their opponents before the game?
Even if the opponent is not strong, no one will give the opponent upset and increase the chance.
Lin Ying and Durant didn't care much either, but Kansas gave up halftime and they could finally adapt to the court.
The two are basically training shots.
When Durant shot, Lin Ying was picking up and feeding the ball. When Lin Ying shot, Durant did the same thing.
But interestingly, they attracted the attention of the former Kansas coach when they shot.
I don't blame others, because they shoot the ball more accurately.
Especially, when they shoot three-pointers, they follow the NBA three-point line.
Here I have to mention the NCAA game field, his three-point line is drawn with two.
One is used by NCAA itself, with a distance of 6.32 meters, which is shorter than Fiba's three-point line.
Another one that is farther away is the three-point line of the fiba distance, which is 6.75 meters away, which is used as a reference.
Then Lin Ying and Durant were training close to 1 meter away from the NCAA line!
This is the NCAA league after all, and most players still train on the NCAA three-point line when they train.
I saw two people shooting from the NBA three-point line, and they were quite accurate. Normal people would be curious. UU reading www. uukānshu.com
After more than half an hour of training, Kansas retreated first.
Lin Ying and Durant practiced for another half an hour, and then sat on the sidelines to rest.
"You said we were exposed in advance?"
Durant took a sip of water and said, the water was smooth when he came out of the visiting team's locker room in front of him.
Most of the NCAA colleges and universities change their lineups every year. In addition, unlike the NBA, there is not so much media attention, and the teams are not so familiar with each other.
Especially some newcomers, often can play the role of some amazing soldiers.
Durant is the core of the team. Both new and new players are the same and will be focused on.
But Lin Ying is different. Although his playing time is increasing, it is still a rotation now, and the opponent may not pay attention to him.
But just now, Kansas must have known that he would have a three-pointer.
"That's not necessarily a bad thing."
Lin Ying thought for a while and said.
It is impossible for him to be just a surprise soldier all the time.
Especially if it becomes a starter one day, it will be targeted even in the NCAA.
And his purpose of practicing fixed-point three-pointers is not really for the number of three-pointers.
Even in the small ball era in the future, few games have been won by a big man with three-pointers.
Inside shooting ability, the greater role is to pull out the offensive end space.
Although he has not studied basketball tactics systematically, as a traverser, he still knows the development of basketball.
Players are becoming more versatile. Big players have three-pointers and are paying more and more attention to court space.
So even if Kansas knew that he would be a three-pointer, the opposing center's targeted defense came out, it may not be a bad thing.
