I'm good at basketball too

Chapter 12

In fact, at this point in the game, the whistle can be blown to announce the end.

But Calipari just watched from the sidelines with folded arms, without saying a word.

Li Ran performed very well and formed a very wonderful chemical reaction with Rose, but this was not enough.

Calipari wanted to see if Li Ran could improve after not playing for more than half a year.

He suddenly put his hands around his mouth and shouted loudly toward the field: "There is no number of departures for fouls!"

These words were obviously addressed to the inside duo. After hearing Calipari's instructions, Joey Dorsey and Rozier's timid defensive actions also became unrestrained.

Li Ran glanced at Calipari, he knew that this was Calipari's test for him.

If so, hurry up!
He came to Rose and whispered something to Rose.

Hearing Li Ran's words, Rose's eyes started to light up. He looked at Li Ran excitedly and nodded heavily. .

Under the DDM tactical system, the speed of rapid counterattack is very important, but Rose has always felt a sense of restraint during this year, as if there is an invisible shackle on him.

In fact, this is because, on the Tigers team, no one can keep up with his speed, so when counterattacking, Rose often has to stop and wait for his teammates to get in position.

In this way, many good scoring opportunities were virtually wasted.

And what Li Ran said to Ross just now was: "Derek, run up and leave the others alone, I can keep up with you."

So, in the next attack, Antonio Davis missed a shot, and the center grabbed the defensive rebound and handed it to Rose. Rose slapped the ball forward hard, spread his legs and ran out.

At the same time, Li Ran also started at the same time.

The two of them were like two torpedoes, heading towards the front field at high speed.

The main team already has three players, but these three are not enough.

Changing direction without slowing down while moving, this Rose's signature move appeared on the court again.

He accelerated unreservedly, passed Willie Kemp like a road in the early morning, looked at the remaining two people who were waiting in full force, smiled slightly, and threw himself into the air.

Both defenders jumped at the same time, blocking all of Rose's shot space.

Rose threw the ball into the sky deftly, Li Ran jumped in from behind, jumped high, and after receiving the ball in the air, gliding for a while, dunking the ball into the basket heavily with both hands!
This ball was earth-shattering, and everyone was stunned.

Even Calipari had a satisfied smile on his lips.

This kind of propulsion efficiency and speed is what he really wants.

He knew that his choice at the beginning of the season was not wrong. The brothers Ross and Li Ran were indeed the best implementers of his tactics.

For the next period of time, the main team didn't even find a chance to foul, and could only watch Ross and Li Ran perform on the field.

The two are too comprehensive. They are omnipotent in mid-range shots, long-range shots, and breakthroughs. Although Li Ran's organizational skills are not good, he is more of a terminator.

What's even more frightening is that it doesn't matter if Rose makes a one-on-two or one-on-three forceful shot.

Because of Li Ran's abnormal offensive rebounding ability, he did a good job of dealing with the aftermath of Rose.

By the time the game reached 15 minutes, the point difference had gone straight to [-] points, and there was no point in continuing the game. Under Calipari's signal, Cui Wanjun blew the whistle for the end of the game.

The bloody numbers on the scoreboard in front of the sideline scorer made the players of the main team unable to lift their heads.

37-22, 15 minutes, under NCAA rules, Li Ran and Rose led the bench team to score 37 points!
罗斯11投6中，罚球5中4，三分2中1，砍下了17分3篮板4助攻。

李然更是夸张，8投7中，没有罚球没有三分没有助攻，14分4篮板1盖帽1抢断。

And his 4 rebounds are all offensive rebounds!
All 37 points, 31 of which were arranged by two people.

Looking at the team members assembled in front of him, Calipa was expressionless.

"Keep training."

He didn't express any opinion on the unfinished training game, but calmly announced that he would continue training.

The next day, the University of Memphis played against Tulane University, which has a record of ninth.

Calipari's starters were no different than usual, and the reporters and scouts on the sidelines didn't find any news worth digging.

CDR表现出色，全场砍下17分4篮板2助攻1抢断1盖帽。

Rose's performance was a bit of a struggle, with only seven points recorded, and 6 rebounds and 6 assists.

但是在罗伯特-多齐尔的14分9篮板以及拿到11分，替补登场的多尼尔马克的帮助下，孟菲斯大学还是以75-56，19分的分差轻取杜兰大学碧波队。

Subsequently, they defeated the University of Southern Mississippi 69-53, and in the final conference finals, they defeated the dark horse, the University of Tulsa, which had counterattacked all the way up, 77-51, and successfully advanced into March Madness.

The top seed of the C-USA league, the University of Memphis, officially launched an impact towards the 2007-2008 NCAA championship title!

The craziest thing about March Madness is that no matter how strong your team is, you only have one chance to pass the final championship.

"Tomorrow is the game, are you nervous?"

On the small court behind the apartment, while doing boring dribbling training, Rose asked Li Ran who was shooting next to him.

Li Ran threw the ball gracefully, but the ball hit the basket's neck and bounced high.

He frowned, and ran to the basket from one meter beyond the three-point line, answering Rose's questions while running.

"There is nothing to be nervous about. We are already strong enough. I can only add another one to the cake. This year's champion must be ours."

His tone was relaxed, as if stating an established fact.

Rose was also infected by Li Ran's natural attitude.

"Yeah, this year's championship must be ours. But, Li, why did you shoot from such a long distance? Is it farther than the three-point line in the NBA?"

He gestured to where Li Ran shot the ball just now, and asked a little puzzled.

"Also, I remember that long-range shooting is not your main offensive method. Whether it is in Damien or the last training game, I haven't seen you shoot three-pointers much."

Li Ran took the ball and ran beyond the three-point line again, this time he stood farther than before, dribbling and jumping.

This time, the ball went cleanly and hollowly into the net.

"This is a general trend. Future defenders need to shoot farther and farther."

Rose didn't understand what Li Ran's words meant. In the current NBA, the super center is still glowing with the last twilight.

Yao Ming takes whatever he wants in Aerospace City, carrying the hopes of countless Chinese fans.

The Sharks radiated heat in Phoenix, working hard for their fifth ring.

A new-generation center like Howard is grabbing his own honor. He just won his first rebounding title last season, and entered the first team of the best team and the second team of defense.

As for why not defend for a while. . .

As we all know, San Antonio's center is a power forward named Duncan.

Therefore, the small ball era seems to be far away for the current NBA.
