In the context of TNT's live broadcast in the United States, Wake Forest's performance of defeating the University of Connecticut shook the entire United States and the entire NCAA basketball circle, UConn is not a miscellaneous fish, on the contrary, they can be regarded as the most outstanding in the Great East Conference, and they are one of the favorites to win the championship this year. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the post-game interview, UConn coach Jim. Cajon was invited to the live broadcast booth, and he said with a complicated face, "I think this year's NCAA championship has been decided, and that is Wake Forest, although I don't want to admit it, they really shouldn't be in the NCAA, but in the NBA." Well, I'm not complaining, Wake Forest does have some good players, but that's not a reason for us to lose so much, today we were just restrained, and that happens in the NBA as well, and in the case of being defeated, losing is inevitable. ”

With that to be done, Coach Jim was like leaving, but the TNT commentator's subsequent question stopped him from leaving.

"Coach Jim, what do you think about Wake Forest's rotation?"

“... Well, Aaron. Iverson is a very characteristic guard, his basketball style is very special, the tenacity on the court, the must-win spirit on the court, and that spirit, he has a temperament that makes people yearn for it, but unfortunately..."Jim said that there was no way to continue here: Why didn't I think of inviting him to Connecticut! If at that time I... How great Connecticut should be now!

Looking at Mr. Jim, who had no love on his face, the TNT commentator was lucky to bring the subsequent key questions to the table, "Mr. Jim, the Asian Jordan that was widely circulated before, as an opponent, what do you think of him." ”

"Hmm!" As if disturbed, Coach Jim glanced at the unrelenting TNT commentator in front of him and replied angrily, "I didn't see any Jordan today, today I saw Rodman, Rodman, and Rodman, Well, and maybe Avidas." Okay, I've kept the kids waiting long enough. With that, Jim hurried away.

Perhaps a little puzzled by Jim's breakthrough, the TNT commentator looked at Rodman on the side a little confused, and Rodman smiled generously.

"Jim. Cajon was right, this Jordan did do everything I could today, but it was a really interesting game for Michael to become Dennis! Aha..."

"The above is the opening game of the NCAA Atlantic Coast League Wake Forest this year, and Wake Forest finally won the first game with a score of 108:53..."

This dazzling debut, while turning more fans of Stephen, Duncan, and Billups, also brought Iverson, Tadashi Yamada, and Totoshi Mitsui into the college basketball circle. Webb entered the NBA now, the most likely to squeeze into the best team of Duncan, Jackson, Billups three, last year they narrowly lost to the Michigan Five Tigers, and then in the United States selection was very unfortunate by the Michigan crowd and Duke crowd with better results squeezed into the second team, although a door five best sounds beautiful, but the second team or something... It's always a little unwilling. Last year, Wake Forest University almost made a new history, and this year they will definitely be stronger. It turns out that they are really stronger! After making up for the reserves, they were almost perfect, and insiders who watched TNT's live broadcast in the United States understood that for a while, the aspiring school basketball teams began to read the film day and night.

Putting aside the aftermath, at the moment when the curtain came down on the opening game, the field data of the Wake Forest ten-man group was also released, and it was very hot for a while.

First

Tim. Duncan: 22 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks

Stephen. Jackson: 6 points, 3 assists, 3 steals, 1 block

Chauncey. Billups: 3 points, 2 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocks

Rodney. Brendan Rodgers: 8 points, 1 assist, 1 block

Root. Wallace: 6 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks

Second

Tadashi Yamada: 15 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 5 steals, 5 blocks

Kotoshi Mitsui: 11 points, 4 assists, 1 steal

Alan. Iverson: 20 points, 9 assists, 4 steals

Reuben. Patterson: 10 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks

Ma.Jian: 7 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 1 block

If you only look at the data, except for the fact that Coach Dave of Wake Forest University had a good time today, and his slightly arrogant five up and five down against Connecticut, what else? The rotation scores more points than the main team, and the stats are beautiful?! It's not that Wake Forest's newcomers this year have changed from last year. state, but the main force in front of the foreshadowing is too wonderful. This is not just a matter of team style, in the case of the players' physical fitness, technology, and ball quotient are quite different, Connecticut was taken away by the rhythm of Wake Forest, and then in the second half, Wake Forest's style changed abruptly, plus Connecticut did his best in the first half, but the result was not beautiful, when the mind and body were in the decline zone, Iverson used his basketball, his philosophy, and his spirit to give the Connecticut players a fatal blow, Even the Connecticut players who were attacked by the Wake Forest rotation group like a tidal wave of offense were still unwilling to give up, maybe it was just a knee-jerk behavior, maybe it did work, or maybe Iverson's basketball was gradually adapted to by them... It's a pity that the Wake Forest rotation group has played a new trick again, and it is a high-level strategy! That yellow. Jordan actually played the strategy flow!? He really thinks he's an inside lineman (Chris. Weber? Already!? Don't... He's not Jordan, but Grant?

Under this heavy blow, Connecticut's momentum plummeted for the second time in the second half (the fighting spirit that was finally mustered), and then Connecticut's mistakes gradually increased, and the Wake Forest rotation group immediately took the defensive intensity to the next level, and the University of Connecticut has stepped into the bottomless abyss with its whole foot so far, and even then Ray Allen is unwilling to give up. But even if it's just pseudo. Jordan's rule, he also carries the word Jordan, even if this is just a spontaneous tactical response of Wake Forest players, but it is fatal for the Connecticut players who are on the verge of collapse, which is the main reason why the Wake Forest rotation group is more dazzling than the main team in the second half. This is the foreshadowing laid by Billups in the first half, aiming at Iverson's style of play and basketball spirit, if the first half is supplemented by the physical torment of the University of Connecticut players, then the second half is mental ravage and physical grinding, so restrained, such a jump shot for subordinates, how can Connecticut win, how can he win?

On the same day, the Connecticut News Times published a special report "Epic victory, maybe it's time for us to change", which made an in-depth analysis of the game, but the newspaper affirmed Wake Forest's efforts in recent years, envied it for enjoying the fruits of victory, and finally did not predict Wake Forest's prospects in the NCAA, but supported the local Connecticut University.

The feature concludes with a quote from UConn coach Jim. Cajon's words foreshadowed "I didn't see any Jordan today, today I saw Rodman, Rodman, and Rodman, and En, and maybe Avidas." ”

This report immediately attracted the attention and heated discussion of North Carolina, the United States, and even the whole of North America.

Just two days later, on Tuesday, November 16, Wake Forest hosted Georgia Tech.
