48 Braveheart

"Since the zone defense that the team relied on was broken, it seems difficult for Syracuse University to pose any threat to the Skywalkers."

Reggie Miller looked at the score of 56:66 on the court and said.

It is not particularly difficult to reverse a ten-point difference in ten minutes, but it does not look like this to the fans at the scene.

After Rodney's support in the penalty area completely broke Syracuse University's zone defense, Syracuse University, which switched to man-to-man defense, although its defense was still strong, was unable to suppress the Skywalkers like it did in the opening game.

Syracuse University, which can score on the offensive end, but cannot completely prevent the opponent on the defensive end, has been suppressed by the Skywalkers.

Not much, just about ten points.

But this is like a gap that they cannot cross.

"Is that all?"

McAway's eyes were full of unwillingness!

There are still more than ten minutes! As long as the whistle for the end of the game has not sounded yet, there is still a chance!

Thinking of this, McAway glanced at his mother on the sidelines.

Feeling the encouraging eyes of his mother Mandy, McAway's heart was roaring!

"I haven't lost yet! I can't just fall here!"



The Skywalkers' offense, Lester dribbled the ball across half court.

Before reaching the top of the key, McAway was already on top.

Leicester protected the ball steadily, but could not pass it out at all. Zhou Si immediately stepped forward to respond.

"Snapped!"

Before Zhou Si could catch the ball, McAway snatched the ball away from Leicester!

"Nice steal!"

Barkley yelled.

On the sidelines, Anthony stood up with a fist and then punched hard.

"pretty!"

At this time, McAway completed a two-handed dunk and just let go and landed.

The Orange fans at the scene swept away the previous decline and cheered in unison!

This is the core of their team, their leader, who will contribute wonderful steals in every game and step forward at critical moments!

When the Skywalkers attacked, McAway did not attack directly like before, which made Leicester breathe a sigh of relief.

He has never faced such a strong confrontation with Leicester before. To be honest, he still doesn't know how he was intercepted just now.

Seeing Syracuse University setting up a 3-2 zone defense again, Lester carefully gave the ball to Zhou Si.

Zhou Si passed the ball to Ye Ze in the left corner and then continued to cut into the penalty area at a 45° angle. Then before Zhou Si could bypass Rodney's single screen, he heard another exclamation from the court.

Zhou Si looked towards the frontcourt and saw only the silhouette of McAwee riding away from the crowd.

Was this intercepted again?

Was the coach’s move seen through?

Zhou Si glanced at Coach Nelson, who was still smiling on the sidelines, and then stepped forward and patted Lester on the shoulder, who was looking ugly.

"It's okay, we're still ahead."

Assistant coach Campbell shouted to the court:

"When passing the ball, be careful with No. 1 on the opposite side. He starts very quickly."

In the next round, McAway did not steal, but the Skywalkers' offense failed to score.

Rodney was completely left in the penalty area.

Then he shot an open shot in the penalty area, it was iron...

The fans in red were raising their eyebrows for a while, the score is shrinking rapidly, brother, don't show off at this time.

Syracuse's offense.

After the whole court started, there was a pick-and-roll between McAway and Southerland on the right side of the court.

McAway, who had previously scored four points in a row, did not choose to attack on his own. Instead, after attracting double-teams, he hit the ball through the gap and passed it to Southerland, who was spreading down the right side.

Southerland caught the ball and easily dunked the ball into the basket!

"Beautiful pass. This pass was really just right. Southerland received the ball and could directly attack the frame without any adjustments!"

McAway's pass made Kenny Smith, a former point guard, full of praise.

At 62:66, the point difference was reduced to 4 points, and coach Nelson had no intention of calling a timeout.

In the Skywalkers' offense, Ye Ze, who received a pass from Zhou Si, made a three-pointer directly under the interference of Triche.

Syracuse University's offense still relies on McAway controlling the ball.

Burke, who was running in the middle and into the penalty area, asked for the ball, and McAway immediately gave it to him.

Burke did not make a move but continued to take a step forward. Ye Ze interfered at his side and Rodney stared at him in the penalty area.

Burke did not choose to attack hard and hit the ground to Southerland, who was in a better position on the left side of the paint area.

"Bang! Bang!"

Southerland directly hit the back from a low position and pushed forward forcefully, causing Rodney to retreat step by step.

The other Skywalker players quickly shrank and prepared to help defend.

Southerland has used this method to score a lot of points in the low post before!

Southerland took a deep step and turned around quickly, trying to get stronger. Rodney jumped directly, and Zhou Si also came to help defend from the right corner!

Little did they know that Southerland was making a fake move to deceive Rodney, attract the attention of the Skywalker team, and then directly give the ball to McAway, who was constantly moving outside the three-point line.

Leicester quickly returned to defense, but was still slow, giving McAway a step and a half of space.

McAway didn't want to take action directly.

Although the posture is not very standard, McAway's moves are very quick and gentle.

"Whoosh!"

The spinning basketball went straight through the basket.

Upon seeing this, assistant coach Campbell immediately called a timeout!

"McCaw!"

"McCaw!"

"McCaw!"

McAway's continuous wonderful performances completely ignited the atmosphere at the scene, and even Anthony stood up and cheered for his junior.

This junior can do it!

There was also a surprise in the eyes of the scouts on the sidelines. Many of them came here for Zhou Si, but they did not expect that this McAwee looked better than the player in the report.

Also...except for Zhou Si, the other members of the Skywalker team are really good...

The red-clad Skywalker fans in the stands were cursing and yelling. It was really lucky that the ball was missed.

In the commentary box, Kenny Smith, who had finished praising McAway, told an episode about McAway's last game.

During the last round of 16 game against the University of California, McAway suddenly noticed that his mother, Mandy, was crying on the sidelines.

During the timeout, he ran to the sidelines and asked his mother what was wrong, but her mother said nothing and asked him to play in peace.

After the game, McAway came to his mother immediately and asked what had happened. Mandy finally cried and said: "Our home was burned down..."

It turned out that during the game, Mandy received a call from her husband Zach. Their home was on fire. When the firetruck arrived, most of the house had been burned. Fortunately, no one was injured.

"McCaw is really strong. I didn't expect that he could perform such a wonderful performance after going through so much."

Barkley, who doesn't often praise others, said with emotion.

"Yes, this little guy has a brave heart." Kenny Smith sighed sincerely.

Unfortunately, he met Zhou.

Kenny Smith did not say the second half of the sentence, and then looked at Zhou Si, who was smiling and moving his head on the sidelines, with only one thought left in his mind:

The game is over!
Chapter completed!
