Chapter 158 Fighting Again at George Mason University ([-])

"Pull away."

Leo Cairns got the ball, and several players from George Mason University quickly pulled away, allowing Leo Cairns to single John.

What's happening here?
On the Wildcats side, everyone was awe-inspiring, and John squinted his eyes, staring at Leo Cairns, ready to fight.Since the other party dared to do this, they must have certain reliance and must be careful.

"Singles from the start! But wasn't it always Anthony Mallory?" Gordon shouted.

"Yeah." Thomas nodded, couldn't help frowning, and said, "Why did he become this freshman this time? Although his strength is not bad, he won't be stronger than Anthony Mallory, right?"

This is not a lie. Meng Yun also believes that even if Leo Cairns has improved a lot in the past month or so, he will not be able to surpass Anthony Mallory.Because even a "monster" like Meng Yun has not been able to surpass Evan. In terms of overall strength, he is still inferior to Evan.

However, since the opponent fought like this, there must be a reason. Meng Yun stared at Leo Cairns, and said in a deep voice: "What's going on, you will know after reading."

Gordon, Thomas, and the rest of the Wildcats nodded and stared at the field.

Everyone pulled away, Leo Cairns moved, made continuous fake moves, and then suddenly changed directions to accelerate. His speed was very fast, although not as good as Meng Yun, but much faster than John, and he had a good grasp of the rhythm. A change of direction and acceleration immediately passed John by half.

"It's not that easy to get past me." John snorted coldly, and quickly took half a step back.

His reaction was not unpleasant, but at this moment, Leo Keynes suddenly stopped, which surprised John, and he paused subconsciously.

With a whoosh, Leo Cairns started again, using a speed change, completely passed John.However, the Wildcats are not unprepared. Although George Mason University consciously pulled people away, Patrick stayed in the penalty area from beginning to end and was unmoved at all. Leo Cairns passed John, but there is still Patrick.

I saw Leo Cairns rushing to the inside and jumping up to meet Patrick.

"Looking for death!" Patrick jumped up and raised his hands like cattail fans, covering the sky and the sun, sealing the space above Leo Keynes. Leo Keynes is not Meng Yun, and his physical fitness is not enough to directly confront Patrick. Bouncing and staying in the air are not enough for him to break through Patrick's blockade.

It doesn't seem wise to fight like this.

Just when everyone was wondering why he did this, the George Mason University player who had been drawn to the perimeter suddenly moved.

Anthony Mallory suddenly started to run backwards and moved around the top of the arc. Evan also moved quickly to stop him, but he was blocked after only one step. He said badly in his heart and reminded loudly: " Watch out for empty cuts!"

Andy, Ronald, and John also realized that Andy and Ronald were too far away, but John was not far away, and wanted to step forward to block it, but it was too late.

When Anthony Mallory got rid of the defense, and the inside space was large enough, in fact John couldn't stop it. With Anthony Mallory's height and weight, when he rushed up, John couldn't stop him.

"Do you really think I want to play singles? You are fooled." Leo Cairns raised the corner of his mouth, retracted the ball, passed the ball behind his back, and gave the ball to the middle.

At this time, Anthony Mallory came, grabbed the basketball, and jumped up. Patrick was still in the air, and was knocked away by Anthony Mallory, and then there was a "clang".

Anthony Mallory hung the frame with one hand, describing it as domineering.

"Patrick." Evan chased after him, and stretched out his hand to pull Patrick who fell to the ground.

"I'm fine." Patrick borrowed his strength and said angrily, "Damn it, I fell for their tricks."

Evan nodded, patted Patrick on the shoulder, and said, "It's okay, this method can only be used once, and we won't be fooled next time. It's time for us to attack and pay them back."

Here, Anthony Mallory runs back to high-five Leo Cairns.

Looking at the two of them, Gordon couldn't help frowning, feeling very upset: "Hmph, it just caught us by surprise and caught us off guard. This tactic can only be used once for me, and it won't work next time."

"Yes." Meng Yun squinted his eyes, and he already understood a little bit, "I think they should only plan to use it once. It is at this moment when the competition starts, and the purpose is to give us a blow."

Gordon was startled, thought about it carefully, and couldn't help nodding.

This tactic is only for one shot, and two points is of course nothing. The purpose of George Mason University is to give the Wildcats a head start, so that they can take the initiative and play their momentum.

It's not clear whether it can "take the initiative" in this regard, but at least in terms of "getting the head start", George Mason University's goal has been achieved.

Fight back.

Andy advanced with the ball and passed it to John after reaching the frontcourt.

John took the ball and faced Leo Cairns' defense, he hesitated a little and chose singles.

Previously, Leo Cairns singled out John as a provocation. Facing the provocation of a rookie freshman, John had to respond. hit.If you don't fight back and respond, you will lose your momentum.The opponent scored a goal earlier, and the momentum is brewing and accumulating. At this time, the Wildcats must not show their timidity, otherwise the momentum will lose.

"Single me? Very good." Leo Cairns was not surprised at all. On the contrary, his eyes glowed, he bent over and opened his hands, stared at John, and quickly made a judgment. His speed was fast and he had a good defensive awareness. John tried two times in a row. He failed to get past him every time, but was a little flustered by being forced by Leo Cairns.

This is not a good situation.

Evan frowned, secretly said: "John dribbled for too long."

"It's not right to play like this. It takes too long to hold the ball and it is easy to make mistakes." Andy couldn't help worrying that John was right in singles, and it didn't matter if he couldn't score, but if he made a mistake, it would be different.

It doesn't matter if you can't score, the attitude is already there, and it is tough enough. At least the Wildcats will not be at a disadvantage in this initial duel; Losing two points is also a blow to one's own morale, but will actually boost the opponent's momentum.

"John, pass the ball," Andy yelled.

The voice just fell.

With a "snap", it was George Mason University small forward Holt Gerrard who suddenly jumped out. Taking advantage of John's inattention, he sent the racket flying. Leo Keynes accelerated and put the basketball in his arms. In the middle, without stopping at all, the speed was at full speed, killing the Wildcats half court, and launching a fast break.

John's palm was empty, he immediately reacted, turned around and chased, but Andy was faster than him and had already started, chasing Leo Cairns across the center line, but it was a pity that he still couldn't stop Leo Cairns.

With a bang, the ball goes in.

"Damn." John's face was livid, and he cursed secretly, raised his hand guiltily, and said to Evan, Andy and others: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Evan shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "It's not your fault, the opponent has already planned it. Starting from the first ball, including this ball, should be in the opponent's calculation."

John was taken aback.

Andy smiled bitterly and sighed: "John, it's not your fault alone, it's all of us. We fell into each other's trap, and it's a serial trap."
