O'Neal won the championship, but he's been hesitating too long over getting past Ah Gan. He can't keep lying to himself forever, can he?
Glory Team's first offense was very organized, unfolding in a standard Princeton System.
Starting with Arenas bringing the ball past half court, he passed it to Gan Guoyang at the 45-degree angle, with Miller pulling out to the right-side perimeter to set a screen.
After several repeated moves, Miller caught the ball one step inside the three-point line. O'Neal didn't come out, and Miller made a mid-range jump shot, scoring the first point of the game.
Glory's half-season of studying the Princeton System has definitely paid off.
