Volume 1: I Came, I Saw, I Conquered! Chapter 24: Coach, We Won!
Ben Sladon seemed surprised that Zhang Yu would put him in the game. He froze for a moment before quickly getting up, taking off his training jersey, and heading to the scorer's table.
Facing the 2-meter tall Woz, Curry, who was only 1.85 meters, lowered his center of gravity and started dribbling. Woz, on the other hand, watched Curry's every move as if facing a formidable enemy.
Meanwhile, Cole's shooting touch had cooled down, and he missed multiple three-pointers in a row. Indiana State, facing the Bulldogs' zone defense, could only rely on individual player skills to score, but their success rate was very low. They could only watch as the point difference widened.
67:72, the score remained a 5-point difference, with only 1 minute and 8 seconds left until the end of the game.
Zhang Yu walked over and whispered in his ear.
The fans in the arena believed the team had victory in hand, chatting and laughing with relaxed expressions.
64:69, the score gap widened to 5 points.
Zhang Yu repeated himself. Although Graves didn't understand, he followed the instructions, stepping back two paces, focusing on preventing drives rather than shots.
Soon, Curry turned Indiana State's defense upside down. He switched seamlessly between on-ball and off-ball offensive modes. Moore couldn't keep up with him on defense, and Curry scored repeatedly.
The basketball swished through the net. 67:69, the score difference was back to 2 points!
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
64:69, the score gap widened to 5 points.
Boom!
"Let him shoot threes! Let him shoot!"
Meanwhile, Cole's shooting touch had cooled down, and he missed multiple three-pointers in a row. Indiana State, facing the Bulldogs' zone defense, could only rely on individual player skills to score, but their success rate was very low. They could only watch as the point difference widened.
Zhang Yu and Stevens smiled. Although the 12-point lead wasn't as much as they had hoped for, it was still a significant advantage given the game's situation.
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
At the other end of the scorer's table, McKenna looked at the Bulldogs' lineup on the court, a sense of absurdity rising within him.
"Yes, Coach!" Ben Sladon nodded in response.
He dribbled to the top of the arc and shot a three-pointer.
The game's momentum shifted dramatically. Moore suddenly exploded, driving and shooting, scoring 7 points, including a difficult three-pointer, igniting Indiana State's morale. Their defense became extremely aggressive, catching the Bulldogs players off guard.
The timeout ended quickly, but McKenna, looking at the Bulldogs' lineup, was so angry he almost threw the tactical board.
62:66, the Bulldogs led by 4 points.
"Good. We'll execute the tactic later. You'll handle the ball." Zhang Yu patted his shoulder and pushed him onto the court.
"Rather than focusing on defense, I prefer to trust the team's offense," Zhang Yu said calmly. "And I don't believe Indiana State will focus on attacking the paint. With Moore playing so well, McKenna won't give the ball to anyone else."
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
"Julian will sub in for Campbell, and AJ will sub in for Ben. We'll switch to man-to-man defense, collapsing to protect the paint and rebound. On offense, you'll set screens for Stephen. Stephen, you'll run the pick-and-roll. Shoot if you have an open look, or go one-on-one if you don't. If they double-team, pass to your teammates promptly. Understand?"
AJ Graves returned to the bench, panting, and covered his face with a towel. Zhang Yu paced over and smiled.
To his surprise, Drew couldn't stop Moore. Moore easily pushed aside Drew's seemingly sturdy frame.
Curry, who grabbed the rebound, stood still. After the whistle, he threw the ball high into the air and ran excitedly to Zhang Yu, pouncing on him and shouting:
Zhang Yu was delighted. He had gambled correctly; McKenna indeed didn't focus on attacking the paint!
On the bench, Zhang Yu looked at his panting players, his face grim, and roared:
But the Bulldogs' center was just a role player. Did that young man dare to play like this, giving up on himself?
Indiana State's defensive formation was completely disrupted. Their defensive attention shifted to Ben Sladon, completely changing the initial matchups and allowing Curry to face Woz.
"What are you guys doing?! Only Stephen is running the plays as planned. The rest of you are panicking like mice, scurrying around aimlessly. You don't look like NCAA players at all!"
"Coach, we won!"
"What, you don't want to be subbed out?"
After Curry drove past Woz, Arnold immediately came to help. Curry faked a drive and then whipped the ball to the open Mike Green on the left. Green caught the ball and shot a three-pointer, which went in!
On the next possession, Zhang Yu suddenly shouted loudly:
Graves still stood three steps away from Moore. Moore didn't hesitate, adjusted his stance, and shot a three-pointer.
Stevens, seeing this tactic designed by Zhang Yu for Curry for the first time, gave it a name: "Curry and His Pick-and-Rollers."
But the charm of competitive sports lies in its unpredictability. No one knows what will happen next.
However, after Moore broke through the first screen, Campbell blocked his path, stopping him. Curry called for a double screen!
Finally, after Moore's three-point attempt clanged off the rim again, Indiana State gave up on offense.
"No... Okay, I'm sorry, Coach. I didn't defend Moore well." Graves took off the towel, looking dejected.
On the bench, Zhang Yu looked at his panting players, his face grim, and roared:
Soon, Curry turned Indiana State's defense upside down. He switched seamlessly between on-ball and off-ball offensive modes. Moore couldn't keep up with him on defense, and Curry scored repeatedly.
The fans in the arena believed the team had victory in hand, chatting and laughing with relaxed expressions.
"I'm subbing you out not because of your poor defense, but because the team needs Ben's offense. Don't overthink it. Rest well; the team still needs you to perform." Zhang Yu said in a deep voice.
"You dare to leave me open? Just keep doing it!"
After two months of training, the Bulldogs players had deeply ingrained the habit of "look for Curry when you have the ball."
This tactic was designed to create shooting space for Curry. To achieve this, all the Bulldogs players, except Drew, retreated to the three-point line, almost giving up on offensive rebounds.
To his surprise, Drew couldn't stop Moore. Moore easily pushed aside Drew's seemingly sturdy frame.
Ben Sladon took this opportunity to showcase his driving ability, penetrating Indiana State's paint. However, Tonnell and Woz guarded the basket tightly, and he couldn't find an opening, so he circled back out.
Ben Sladon immediately passed the ball. Curry caught it and shot a three-pointer, which swished through the net!
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
Zhang Yu, seeing the risk of the situation collapsing, immediately called a timeout and carefully arranged the tactics.
Graves nodded heavily and quickly put on his training jersey to prevent losing too much body heat.
Finally, after Moore's three-point attempt clanged off the rim again, Indiana State gave up on offense.
Curry received a pass from Ben Sladon. He first crossed the ball under his legs to the left, then behind his back, brought it to his right hand, completely shaking off Woz, drove into the paint, folded in mid-air to avoid Tonnell's block, and made a layup!
The moment the ball went in, the Hinkle Fieldhouse erupted in deafening cheers. All the fans were ecstatic, rising from their seats and shouting wildly. With only 46 seconds left in the game, this basket almost sealed the victory!
On the bench, Zhang Yu looked at his panting players, his face grim, and roared:
This made Moore even angrier, and he vowed to make the opponents pay.
As they talked, the referee blew the whistle for the game to continue. It was the Bulldogs' offensive possession.
On the next possession, Moore attacked again. He drove to the basket, but Campbell blocked his shot. Curry grabbed the rebound and immediately passed it to Ben Sladon.
Ben Sladon, after entering the game, relayed Zhang Yu's instructions to his teammates. He took the inbound pass from Mike Green and dribbled to the frontcourt.
On the bench, Zhang Yu looked at his panting players, his face grim, and roared:
41:45, Indiana State kept the score close.
On the other end, Moore made a difficult pull-up jump shot, maintaining the 2-point difference.
Moore stayed close to Curry, constantly using subtle tactics. However, Curry was off the ball at this moment. Using screens from Drew and Campbell, he first drove into the paint and then made a backdoor cut, shaking Moore off.
On the next possession, Curry switched to Tonnell through a pick-and-roll. He adopted a triple-threat stance. As Tonnell retreated, he suddenly shot a three-pointer, which bounced off the rim and went in!
After shaking off Moore, Curry was met by power forward Woz.
"No way, they're still leading by 2 points..."
After shaking off Moore, Curry was met by power forward Woz.
At the other end of the scorer's table, McKenna looked at the Bulldogs' lineup on the court, a sense of absurdity rising within him.

38:45, the Bulldogs led by 7 points.
And Cole's shooting touch had cooled down, and he missed multiple three-pointers in a row. Indiana State, facing the Bulldogs' zone defense, could only rely on individual player skills to score, but their success rate was very low. They could only watch as the point difference widened.
"What, you don't want to be subbed out?"
But the Bulldogs' center was just a role player. Did that young man dare to play like this, giving up on himself?
This was part of the Bulldogs' daily training. If Moore broke through Campbell's screen, he would find Mike Green waiting for him at the left 45-degree angle.
Back on the bench, Curry received hero-like treatment. His teammates either slapped him hard on the back or jumped up to bump into him. Drew was the most mischievous, using his height advantage to rub Curry's head vigorously with his large hands.
The players lowered their heads in shame. Zhang Yu paused and continued:
On the other end, Cole retaliated, hitting an open three-pointer after off-ball movement.
"I remember, Coach!" Ben Sladon nodded.
The game's momentum shifted dramatically. Moore suddenly exploded, driving and shooting, scoring 7 points, including a difficult three-pointer, igniting Indiana State's morale. Their defense became extremely aggressive, catching the Bulldogs players off guard.
That Chinese coach actually took out a power forward and put in a substitute small forward?
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
Indiana State attacked. McKenna placed all his hopes on Moore, but Moore's magic had vanished. His desperate three-point attempt clanged off the rim. Chris Pol grabbed the rebound and immediately passed it to Curry.
41:45, Indiana State kept the score close.
The Bulldogs attacked. Ben Sladon still had the ball, and Curry was moving off the ball.
Curry was stunned. The coach had given him unlimited shooting authority!
AJ Graves returned to the bench, panting, and covered his face with a towel. Zhang Yu paced over and smiled.

When the game was 5 minutes away from ending, Campbell's dunk put the Bulldogs ahead of Indiana State 61:49, a 12-point lead.
Indiana State's defensive formation was completely disrupted. Their defensive attention shifted to Ben Sladon, completely changing the initial matchups and allowing Curry to face Woz.
Zhang Yu quickly called another timeout. After this timeout, he only had one left. The situation was not looking good for the Bulldogs.
"Do you remember the tactics I had you practice a few days ago?"
That Chinese coach actually took out a power forward and put in a substitute small forward?
"Let him shoot threes! Let him shoot!"
"You dare to leave me open? Just keep doing it!"

Finally, Julian Becko grabbed the rebound and immediately passed it to Curry.
Soon, Curry turned Indiana State's defense upside down. He switched seamlessly between on-ball and off-ball offensive modes. Moore couldn't keep up with him on defense, and Curry scored repeatedly.
This was Zhang Yu's tactic: using two point guards, letting Curry play off-ball while Ben Sladon handled the ball, unleashing Curry's off-ball offensive capabilities. But when the opponent focused their defensive attention on the ball-handler, Curry would attack from the weak side, completely tearing apart the opponent's defense!
The game's momentum shifted dramatically. Moore suddenly exploded, driving and shooting, scoring 7 points, including a difficult three-pointer, igniting Indiana State's morale. Their defense became extremely aggressive, catching the Bulldogs players off guard.

Boom!
41:45, Indiana State kept the score close.
This time, the basketball didn't go into the net as intended. It hit the front rim and bounced out. The paint immediately became chaotic, with both sides fiercely competing for the rebound.
This tactic could only be used by the Bulldogs. Although Curry was still young, his unparalleled off-ball movement in his prime was already showing, no less than that of top off-ball shooters like JJ Redick, who was selected in the lottery. His on-ball offense had also reached elite NCAA levels after a season of practice. Across the NCAA, besides Curry, there was no other player who combined off-ball and on-ball play so perfectly.
On the next possession, Zhang Yu suddenly shouted loudly:
AJ Graves looked at Zhang Yu in surprise. After returning to the court, he was once again tasked with defending Moore.
The fans in the arena believed the team had victory in hand, chatting and laughing with relaxed expressions.
He dared to leave me open? Just keep doing it!
