Chapter 32 The brightest superstar of the NCAA!(1/2)
"No player at the NBA or NCAA level will adopt Stuckey's defensive method when facing opponents of the same level. Stuckey lost caution. His defense against Yes was full of arrogance. Yes used
His talent tears apart Starkey's arrogance, beautiful chop!"
"Starkey is not Iverson, and Yes is not Tyronn Lue. Starkey should not look at the current Yes through the eyes of the past three years. The current Yes is completely different from the past three years!"
"I have watched the game videos between Starkey and Yes in the past three years. Starkey was much calmer at that time. The stars of Eastern Washington University made Starkey slower!"
Yes's one-handed chop technique shocked everyone, and Starkey's first defense against Yes left the commentators and scouts speechless.
Yes holds the ball and there is no problem with Yes' close defense.
There is no problem in squeezing Ye Si's body.
The question is, why start suddenly?!
Doesn't Starkey know that Yees is one of the fastest players in the NCAA?
Or is it that Stuckey simply did not prepare carefully before this game that attracted national attention?
Just thinking about how to defeat Ye Si in this game and how to become famous in front of fans all over the United States?
Did Starkey prepare carefully for this game between the University of Washington and Eastern Washington University?
The answer is of course no.
Starkey didn't even think about the difference between the current Yes and the past three years.
He is too familiar with Yes.
No one in the world knows better than him what level Ye Si has been in the past three years.
In three years, there has been almost no change in Yes!
Facing Ye Si, he can find many ways to defeat him!
This is not arrogance, to Starkey, it is fact!
Such a fact was directly torn to pieces by Ye Si in front of fans across the United States!
This makes Starkey very embarrassed and unhappy!
Eastern Washington University attacked, Stucky pushed the ball across half court, Roy was about to step forward to defend, but was stopped by Yes.
"Yes, I will personally lead the defense against Starkey!"
Stucky was surprised to see that it was Yes and not Roy who came to defend.
His defense just now was indeed taken for granted and he underestimated Ye Si's explosive power.
But now it's his turn to attack!
Stuckey's three-point shooting has been excellent this season, with a shooting rate of nearly 40%.
However, compared with Starkey's other offensive methods, Starkey's three-pointer can be put aside a little.
When Yes was defending Starkey, he always kept half a step away from Starkey.
This is the defensive approach he has used against Stuckey for the past three years.
If his confrontation is strong enough, he will also want to defend closely.
But his confrontation is not very good, and his close-fitting approach is too dangerous.
By leaving half a step of space, he has many more choices.
On the defensive end, Stuckey will add intensity to Yes, and the same will naturally happen on the offensive end.
Facing a defense like Yes', Stuckey kept holding the ball and seeking physical contact with Yes.
Colliding, squeezing, leaning, and sticking constantly in an attempt to disrupt Ye Si's defensive steps.
These skilled moves have been used on Ye Si countless times in the past three years, but this time, they did not achieve the results he wanted?!
"Yes's defense is very tenacious. He still doesn't like to use his body to fight close to the body, but his speed and agility allow him to quickly return to position every time his footsteps are disrupted. A very tenacious defensive method, Starkey's
The attack is at a stalemate!"
"Yes's defensive skills are excellent, but I think Starkey's lack of explosive power is the key to his impasse. Previously, when Starkey was slightly out of position, Yes used his explosive power to directly tear open the defense, and Starkey
His explosive power is not as good as Ye Si’s return speed, and he cannot seize the opportunity when Ye Si is slightly out of position!”
Is this the center of the Yes storm, Yes?
So awesome!
Mike Burnley, the head coach of Eastern Washington University on the sidelines, saw for the first time a defense that Stuckey couldn't break down one-on-one?!
Yes's strength and confrontation are not as good as Starkey's, and Starkey does seem to have the upper hand now.
But advantage cannot be converted into victory!
Stuckey could constantly keep Yes out of position, but he was never able to break open Yes' defense.
It's like hitting cotton with a fist. Although the cotton is deformed, it can bounce back quickly!
Each NCAA offense has 35 seconds, and the offense does not need to have any urgency.
But this situation made Mike Burnley anxious on the sidelines.
As the head coach, he knows Starkey's pride, and Starkey will not take the initiative to call for cover, even if he really needs cover now!
Mike Burnley looked at the time and finally waved to the Eastern Washington University players on the court!
"Stucky used the cover of his teammates to get rid of Ye Si's defense and hit a mid-range jumper. It was a very soft touch. The score on the court was 2-2!"
"In this round, Yes's defense was very good. Brockman's lack of experience in guarding pick-and-rolls gave Stucky too much space!"
Brockman was annoyed to have Stuckey hit a mid-range shot in front of him.
Everyone at the University of Washington knows what this game means to Leafs.
"You can stick to him tighter next time you change defense."
Yes took the baseline ball from Brockman: "Also, don't blame yourself."
"leaf……"
Winning the state championship, being named the MVP of the state competition, and going to Eastern Washington University, where all the stars are cheering, really dulled Stuckey.
But after the first two rounds of offense and defense, if he hasn't become alert, then he is not worthy of the title of one of the best defenders in the NCAA.
In the past two rounds, he was defeated by Yes on the defensive end and blocked by Yes on the offensive end. Although the score was 2 to 2, the actual result was that he was completely defeated!
Such a result made him very angry!
But it also made him calmer!
The second time he defended Yes, Starkey was obviously cautious.
Still defending closely, still confronting Ye Si.
But this time, Starkey didn't want to devour Ye Si in one bite.
He didn't put all his strength on Ye Si.
The physical confrontation on the basketball court is like a boxing match.
When you are not absolutely sure of knocking down the opponent, you need to save three points of energy to turn around.
In the past three years, Ye Si could be knocked down with one punch and crushed with all his strength.
Now, he needs to save three points to prevent the last situation from happening.
After missing a hit, Ye Si was torn apart without any reaction!
Starkey's physical strength is superior to that of Yes, that's for sure.
However, Starkey, who did not press forward completely and left some strength behind, is still superior to Ye Si in terms of confrontation, then there is a doubt!
"Starkey's defense no longer throws all the stops, which allows Yes to have sufficient space to control the ball, and beautiful dribbling under the hips, Yes is ready to pull up a three-pointer?!"
What?!
He wants to pull up a three-pointer?!
Here?!
Of course Starkey noticed Yes's intention.
In this defense, the confrontation he faced was not that big, but it didn't allow Ye Si to come in casually.
He left some space for Yes, but this space can only allow Yes to make a pull-up shot!
Space for pull-up shots at the NBA three-point line!
And Ye Si actually did it?!
Without any hesitation, when the opportunity arose, I jumped at it!
48,57,71!
Hand value of 71!
Faced with Starkey's limited interference, Yesi suddenly threw a pull-up three-pointer from the NBA three-point line!
