Chapter 540 Confronting Owen
First the jump ball, Jefferson decisively lost.
Of course, no one blames him. After all, the little Plumlee (second brother Mason Plumley) who jumped the ball with him is 211cm tall, which is much taller than him.
Duke University's starting lineup is center Plumlee Jr., power forward Ryan, small forward Singler, shooting guard Smith, and point guard Irving.
Plumlee put the ball into the backcourt, and Owen quickly advanced to the frontcourt after controlling the ball. When he saw Qin Hao coming forward, he frowned, and didn't even try to pick and roll. Fast crotch dribbles, cool moves, and lots of fake moves.
However, Qin Hao was unmoved at all. It wasn't that he could judge Owen's fake action, on the contrary, it was precisely because he couldn't judge that, so he would not act rashly.
What's more, with Qin Hao's speed, height and wingspan, he can come first.
Seeing Qin Hao's balance and stability, nailed to the spot and not moving, Owen was somewhat depressed. Of course, his breakthrough did not rely solely on gorgeous dribbling, but the most important thing was skill and rhythm. That's the key.
But once Qin Hao doesn't eat anything, it's like two fighters fighting, one person just stands there, motionless, naturally there will be no flaws.
Since Qin Hao is not fooled, Owen can only force it.
The next moment, Owen accelerated and broke through from the right side. Qin Hao quickly retreated and took a step sideways. Relying on the advantages of his wingspan and footsteps, he got stuck in the position first.
However, Owen suddenly changed direction and slapped the ball on the floor to his left hand. The center of gravity also shifted to the left, and Qin Hao quickly adjusted his center of gravity.
And at this moment, Owen smiled.
I saw Owen hooking the ball with his left hand, but instead of breaking through to the left, he used his right foot as the axis, hooked the ball with his left hand and turned 360 degrees, changing the direction of the breakthrough.At the same time, because of turning around, he just blocked Qin Hao's moving position with his body, forcing Qin Hao to be unable to move in an instant, and blocked his breakthrough route again.
"Huh"
"This breakthrough is so beautiful!"
In the eyes of the fans, Irving's breakthrough is cool, his movements are gorgeous, and it is pleasing to the eyes.
But in fact it is far more than that simple. In Qin Hao's eyes, gorgeous movements are nothing. The focus is on Owen's use of technology and his ability to control the ball.
On these, Irving is indeed very good.
"Think I can't defend against this?" Although Qin Hao was passed by, he did not completely lose his defense. He quickly turned around and immediately pursued.
Owen is only 188cm (Owen was so tall in his freshman year, and he only grew to 191cm in his sophomore year. I am also very envious that he can still grow taller after going to college), which is a full ten centimeters shorter than Qin Hao.
Qin Hao's height and wingspan have obvious advantages, coupled with his fast speed, even if he is passed by Owen, he still has the opportunity to chase Owen.
This dribble was beautiful. Irving rushed to the basket after dribbling. Jefferson jumped up to block the shot, and Qin Hao chased after him. A few Irving dodged in the air, and he flew to the basket with inertia. On the other side, he avoided Qin Hao's pursuit and also avoided Jefferson.
Swish!
In the end, Irving pulled the bar and hit a reverse basket.
After scoring the goal, Owen gave Qin Hao a provocative look.
"The style of play is really gorgeous." Qin Hao sighed inwardly.
This is the first time he has played against Irving. Although he only played one ball, he has to admit that Irving is really good at playing and can capture the love of fans.
Syracuse University offense.
When Qin Hao came to the frontcourt, Owen quickly posted it. He knew that Qin Hao was accurate with three-pointers, so he defended higher. When Qin Hao saw this position, he immediately changed direction.
With a "whoosh", Qin Hao passed half of Owen's body.
"Damn it." Owen cursed inwardly, and quickly turned around to give chase.
Everyone knows that Qin Hao is fast, but anyone who fights against him for the first time will always suffer a little loss at the beginning and feel caught off guard.
What's more, defense is not Irving's strong point.
Owen was passed by only one change of direction to accelerate, which also caused a burst of exclamation from the fans.
Qin Hao hit the basket after passing Irving, but did not choose to lay up like Irving, but used a throw to score the ball. After all, Duke University still has Plumlee inside.
As for Owen, the gap between his height and Qin Hao is too large, basically there is no possibility of chasing after Qin Hao, and he himself has no such idea, after all, he is not the kind of person who does such things.
In the next few rounds, Qin Hao and Owen came and went, refusing to give in to each other.
Owen's breakthrough is still gorgeous, the most important thing is his use of technical movements and control of the ball.Some people break through by looking at the defender's position first, and then break through after thinking about what to do, but Irving can change his actions at any time without any hesitation.
This is where he is great.
If it is the former, there are traces to follow after all, and the defense will be targeted, but Owen makes it difficult for you to judge, unpredictable, and especially difficult to defend.
Moreover, Irving not only has a breakthrough, but his shooting is also very precise, and he has no shortcomings. Whether it is a three-pointer or a mid-range shot, he has a considerable hit rate.
"Shh!"
With a soft sound, Owen caught a pick-and-roll to get rid of Qin Hao, and it was a three-pointer.
Today Irving has a strong desire to score. He shot consecutively from the beginning, and he feels hot, with a lot of breakthroughs and outside shots.
But when he turned around, Qin Hao immediately responded.
After Felton pushed the ball to the frontcourt, Qin Hao ran back to get the ball. Owen stepped forward quickly. Qin Hao suddenly bent over and stepped out with his right foot. Owen subconsciously took a step back.
At this moment, Qin Hao retracted his foot and directly pulled out from outside the three-point line. With a height of 198cm, Qin Hao was not worried about Owen blocking himself at all.
Swish!
With a soft sound, the ball goes in.
Owen was a little depressed. On the offensive end, he was full of confidence. Although Qin Hao was faster and taller than him, he was not afraid of Qin Hao, but he could still score.
But on the defensive end, he has nothing to do with Qin Hao, and in comparison, Qin Hao has to play more easily on the offensive end, after all, he has an advantage in height.
Don't underestimate your height.
Some players will not be mediocre because of their height, such as Allen Iverson, but if Iverson is not 1.8 meters three (in fact, there should be none), and he does not need to be too tall, just 1.9 meters, his strength will be even stronger How strong is it?It is easier to play on the court and not suffer so many injuries.
Owen's 188cm height may not be a disadvantage against others, but it is a disadvantage against Qin Hao, because he does not have an advantage in speed.
"This Qin is really good." Old coach K frowned. Owen played well, but obviously he couldn't guard against Qin Hao.
But it doesn't seem to work for other people. Shooting guard Smith is only 185cm, shorter than Irving. Small forward Singler is 203cm, but his speed is much worse than Qin Hao.
