At this moment, Qin Yue suddenly missed Chris Paul.

On the court, in order to break through North Carolina's double-team, Qin Yue didn't persist in ball-holding offense.

Knowing that at this time he could only trust Gray, he decisively increased the frequency of screen and hand-off plays with Gray on the offensive end and searched in his mind for the strategies Prose usually designed for him, the ones best suited to breaking through North Carolina's defense at this moment.

Moreover, if the offense can't score, the only way to not let the opponents widen the gap is to play good defense.

Fortunately, tonight under Qin Yue's leadership, most of North Carolina's offense could only start from the outside.

Bang, bang, bang.

In the second half, Wake Forest's offense stalled due to certain players dropping the ball... while on the other side, North Carolina's offense dropped into a cycle of missed shots due to Felton's inaccuracies.

At this moment, Felton also missed Chris Paul.

Because every time on the court facing Paul, Felton felt unusually powerful.

In Felton's eyes, much like how Chinese people must put sugar on zongzi, on the court he must face off with Paul to feel empowered.

No way around it; during college, Paul was indeed the matchup dream for Felton, Nelson, and Deron.

Until he entered the NBA in the future...

With enhanced confrontational ability, Paul greatly reduced the number of people in the "eat, sleep, beat Paul group."

The focus returns to the court, this "Hidden Dragon and Phoenix Chick" game broke the scoring drought first by North Carolina and completely ended this brick-laying farce.

Marvin displayed his versatile characteristics in college basketball, catching the ball outside and making a three-pointer.

As the saying goes.

Despite in the NBA, Marvin's versatility becomes questionable...

But in college basketball, he truly is a versatile warrior.

However, turning back, Wake Forest immediately responded.

Through the Flex strategy, Qin Yue hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc.

This time on offense, Wake Forest started with a typical Flex strategy 2-3 formation, sinking Qin Yue to the right low post.

Reeve held the ball near the left free-throw line, while Gray actively moved inside to set a screen for Qin Yue.

Since at the moment Gray set the screen for Qin Yue, Qin Yue might get the chance to attack the basket, the three frontcourt players of the Tar Heel team reacted by collapsing their defense.

At that moment, accompanied by Qin Yue's smart retreat to the three-point line, Reeve immediately passed the ball to Qin Yue.

This modified version of the Flex tactic is one of the strategies Prose meticulously crafted for Qin Yue based on his characteristics.

In its execution, it has many developments and variations.

But regardless of how it develops and varies... it has one notable characteristic, which is that Wake Forest can utilize Qin Yue's power in the low post to develop offense around him.

Moreover...

Double-teaming does nothing against this tactic.

Because during the initiation of this tactic, even if Qin Yue is holding the ball, he will quickly pass it to a teammate through a hand-off.

About fifteen years later, this tactic will be famous worldwide through the Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic.

In this life, due to various synchronicities, both Skip Prosser and Mike Malone, kindred spirits across time and space, coincidentally discovered their respective core players' power under this tactic.

This night, the Dean Smith Center gradually quieted down.

Because as Wake Forest's Flex tactic showed its power...

The Principal, the Son of China, the prospective NBA top pick, the pride of Wake Forest, the Overlord—the man with all these titles, used his basketball IQ to toy with North Carolina's entire defense line.

If heaven doesn't produce Qin Yue, the eternal world is like a long night!

On the court, after consecutively succeeding in four attacks, Qin Yue led the Devil's Deacon Team to stop the Tar Heel team and personally pressed that darn mute button...

And in front of the TV, because Kupchek vouched for him with credit, Lakers owner Jerry Buss, who was watching the game at this moment, said a meaningful thing, "Mickey, if only we could tank... how great would that be?"
