15: 011: Truth_3 15: 011: Truth_3 But taking advantage of the opponent’s attack, Roger dribbled the ball right through between two players and made a steady mid-range shot, scoring 8 points continuously!
The double-team of Isidore Newman School was completely ineffective!
On the other hand, because Livingston kept passing the ball and the role players’ ability to capitalize on the offense wasn’t as high, even though they played more rationally, the team ended up falling behind!
After witnessing Roger playing with Isidore Newman School’s defense, Jay Bilas couldn’t help but remark, “Roger, as usual, still doesn’t pass the ball even when facing a double team.
But Block High School is still scoring.
He seems to be telling us that he has absolutely no need to pass the ball!”
After this, if Roger’s performance were shown to the Chinese fans in 2024, they would definitely cry their eyes out.
Because this was almost a replay of Clarkson slaughtering the men’s team at the World Cup!
Why did Clarkson go berserk?
Firstly, his strength was already at a higher level, and secondly, he never really faced any serious pressure.
The Chinese Team’s attempts to trap him were ineffective, the pressure was not enough, and no one committed harsh fouls to disrupt Clarkson’s rhythm.
Clarkson’s shooting and dribbling were very composed from the beginning to the end.
This created a situation where even though there were always one or two people following Clarkson, he was still able to score.
Clarkson must have been baffled, thinking, ‘What exactly am I doing that the Chinese Team’s defense is so disrespectful to me.’
Roger is just like that now.
There were always two people in front of him defending, but the pressure from these two was completely unable to affect Roger.
They thought that just by disturbing him a bit they could force Roger to miss, not realizing that this level of defense was useless against Roger!
So, Roger scored various crazy baskets during the first half under a double-team.
Suddenly, people felt that Livingston was playing a bit too rationally.
They truly wished Livingston would also shoot boldly under a double-team like Roger, instead of passing the ball repeatedly to role players and wasting opportunities.
Initially, all the media criticized Roger’s style of play, but now everyone wished Livingston would be bolder like Roger.
Roger completely reversed his reputation!
The 16-minute first half ended quickly, Randy Livingston had 5 points, 6 assists, and no turnovers, a performance that was flawlessly impeccable.
Roger, on the other hand, happily had 0 assists for the half.
he scored 25 points in the half alone, five times more than Livingston, leading Block High School to a 6-point lead!
Randy Livingston’s so-called perfect execution, in the face of Roger’s furious bombardment, was nothing to speak of!
16 minutes, 25 points, in Bilas’s words, “Roger’s first half was simply like a shooting practice!
Newman’s defense was too easy for him!”
O’Neal excitedly stood up in the front row, raising his thick arms high and repeatedly shouting, “Roger is the truth!
Sorry Paul Pierce, such a cool nickname won’t belong to him anymore.
The fans of Isidore Newman School, seeing the nearly crazed Shaq Daddy, only then realized that this game was completely different from what they had imagined.
Through ESPN’s live broadcast, all of America also witnessed Roger’s unimaginable scoring ability.
His play was indeed irrational, but he had the capital to be irrational!
His offense was not at a high school level at all!
In Jonesville Town, inside a repair shop, several men were already hugging each other.
I knew Roger would shut up those arrogant fools from Newman!
They think they are superior?
“If you ask me, Roger is the damn number one in all of America!”
“Lu, your nephew is truly incredible haha!”
The customer who came for repairs was obviously surprised: “Are you Roger’s uncle?”
Lu An proudly nodded.
Little did he know the customer suddenly grabbed Lu An’s hand: “If you do not disdain, I wish to become your sworn son!”
Meanwhile, this exciting scene was unfolding in every household in Jonesville Town.
Roger made this humble little town famous throughout America!
A dejected Simmons walked off the court, he had exerted all his effort in the first half to defend, but it was completely useless!
He had thought Roger’s scoring ability was about the same as Randy’s, just that he scored higher because he took more shots.
But the reality told him, Roger was simply a creature of another dimension!
At this rate, Roger didn’t even need to score 100 points to win the game!
Back in the locker room, Isidore Newman School’s coach Tony Reilly was furious: “What are you doing?
Why are you letting him score at will!?
I’ve emphasized countless times, he is Block High School’s only weak point, why aren’t you focusing on that!”
Simmons helplessly replied, “We did defend properly, but there’s nothing we can do.”
“Damn it, what do you mean by ‘nothing we can do’!?
There’s no such thing as ‘can’t’ on a basketball court!
Do you think he is Michael Jordan!?”
“Did you challenge him?
Did you use fouls to break his rhythm?
What the hell do you mean by ‘nothing we can do’!?”
“Be tougher, even tougher!
This is a war, young gentlemen!
Haven’t you realized it yet?
Just reaching out your hand doesn’t mean your defense is adequate.
That soft defense will not stop that maniac!”
Simmons never imagined that they, who swaggered around in Louisiana, would get beaten so embarrassingly just in the first half.
With the inner unwillingness and the coach’s scolding, the 48th-ranked Simmons in America regained his composure, clenching his lips tightly.
Using a few harsh fouls to break him, he should be afraid to mess around, right?
Isidore Newman School didn’t know that everything they planned, in front of a Roger whose scoring ability was a whole level higher, would be futile.
The more you compress a spring, the greater the force of its rebound will be.
Even crazier performances are about to begin.
