Coach John Thompson was convinced.
Of course, he knew how powerful Iverson and Mo Ran's pick-and-roll combination was.
But Coach Thompson was not good at using pick-and-roll tactics.
He preferred a tactical system where the point guard or the inside terminator led the offense.
After all, he had coached Patrick Ewing, Mourning, and Mutumbo.
Coach Thompson was more familiar with the use of the inside line.
The pick-and-roll tactic was rarely used in the team's daily training.
He was very puzzled. Why were Iverson and Mo Ran so skilled?
Even the pick-and-roll tactic's hand gestures were decent?
In fact.
Mo Ran and Iverson had long had the idea of playing the pick-and-roll.
This idea was born on Christmas Eve in 1995.
After the 3v3 at Rock Park, Mo Ran had suggested that Iverson study the pick-and-roll style.
But at that time, Allen Iverson was still a player who played solo.
Pick and roll?
It could be used, but it was unnecessary!
However, Mo Ran took Iverson to watch a game against the Yale Knights.
John Stockton and Karl Malone's pick-and-roll combination made Iverson's eyes light up.
Following that, Mo Ran activated his 'teach' mode.
After Iverson and Mo Ran played the pick-and-roll.
Whether it was AI or Mo Ran, they would both face dislocations.
Iverson was small against big, which NCAA player could keep up with him?
Mo Ran was big and small.
Could there be a defender in the NCAA who could withstand Mo Ran's impact?
Iverson instantly felt that what Mo Ran said made sense, and he was speechless.
Unfortunately, until the knockout stages, Georgetown did not meet a team worthy of letting Moai go on the line.
Today, he was facing Tim Duncan's Wake Forest.
Iverson knew that he wasn't efficient today, so he decided to use the pick-and-roll play that he had been discussing for a long time and had once looked down on.
Reality proved it.
How fragrant!
"We should have fought like this a long time ago!"
After tasting the sweetness, Iverson decisively went forward and high-fived Mo Ran."Buddy, that shot you just made was too brutal!”
That's right, it was brutal!
Rusty Laru was killed twice in a row. Iverson looked at the kid with pity.
His heart ached!
Tim Duncan still took the initiative to pull Lalu up from the ground with a very leadership temperament.
"Rusty, if they pick and roll later, we'll pincer the ball carrier.”
Duncan pulled Lalu up and quickly gave a solution.""You limit Allen's breakthrough, and I'll block the space above for the pass.”
The best way to break the pick-and-roll tactic was definitely the unlimited defense changes that the Houston Rockets would achieve in the future.
However, Wake Forest definitely did not have such conditions.
Fortunately, Duncan was simple and crude. He just had to double the ball carrier!
Lalu was in charge of ground defense, and Deng Daidai was in charge of the high-altitude area.
Allen Iverson's natural disadvantage of being short would be exposed in a two-man pincer attack.
Georgetown attack round.
Allen Iverson made the classic John Stockton pick-and-roll gesture again.
Mo Ran took advantage of the situation and moved to the top of the arc, turning sideways to completely block Rusty Laru.
Iverson took advantage of the pick-and-roll to face Tim Duncan. Before he could make a move, on the other side, he bypassed Mo Ran's Lalu and decisively gave up on Mo Ran. He quickly approached the AI.
According to Deng Daidai's method.
Wake Forest couldn't switch defense indefinitely, so they decisively pincered Iverson!
On the sidelines, Wake Forest manager Dave Odom heaved a sigh of relief.
He was still worried that he needed to call a time-out to resolve the opponent's sudden Moai pick-and-roll tactic.
Unexpectedly, Tim Duncan made a defensive change in an instant on the field.
With Duncan around, Dave Odom was relieved.
"Don't you have anyone to guard against Mo?"
Iverson wasn't anxious at all in the face of a pincer attack.
After throwing this sentence, the AI jumped up and threw the ball high up!
The height of the basketball flew over Duncan's long arm, and it even had a tendency to rise.
The fans who were born in the mathematics department could tell at a glance that even if the basketball was falling near the basket, it was still higher than Duncan's maximum height at this time.
"Did Allen Iverson make a passing error?”
"If even Tim Duncan can't touch the ball, Mo Ran definitely can't reach it either!”
"Alan is still too anxious. He can totally pull out and reorganize the attack.”
" It can't be helped. Wake Forest's pincer attack was too decisive. From the moment Allen Iverson jumped up to pass the ball, the ball was destined to make a mistake…"
The veteran fans on the sidelines felt a little regretful.
They didn't expect it either.
The unsolvable tactic of Moai's pick-and-roll was broken by Duncan's pincer tactic.
However, there was nothing he could do about it.
After all, Iverson's height really limited the power of Moai's pick-and-roll!
"Bang!"
However, the fans 'faces were ruthlessly slapped by Mo Ran, who was flying high into the paint!
The giant Xia beast leaped up with all its strength. Its eyes were looking at the basket, and its long arms were fully extended. It grabbed the falling basketball with one hand and smashed it into the basket!
"Buzz!"
He smashed the basket with great force, shaking the basket until it buzzed.
The fans in the stadium instantly lost their voices. A moment later, cheers exploded throughout the entire Military Stadium!
"Mo Ran jumped too high!”
In the Central TV's broadcasting studio, Sun Zhengping was dumbfounded."Coach Zhang, can Michael Jordan jump like Mo Ran?”
"Michael Jordan can jump this high, but he's not as tall as Mo Ran!”
Zhang Lisheng corrected the loophole in Sun Zhengping's words."Even though they can jump high, Mo Ran can reach a higher height than Jordan!”
"If it's purely a game of touch, Jordan isn't our Mo Ran's match!”
"Are you saying that Michael Jordan is not as good as our Mo Ran?”
"From a certain point of view, that's what I mean!”
Old Master Zhang and Sun Zhengping looked at each other and smiled.
This young man who was bragging about his Great Xia was really cool!
"Mo, I thought you couldn't catch this ball!”
At Soldier Field, Iverson, who almost made a mistake, was blaming Mo Ran online."You almost caused me to make a mistake!”
"Your pass was so short, how could I not catch it?”
Mo Ran did not fall for AI's tricks.”
