UCLA head coach Ben Holland walked to the sidelines and motioned for Jordan Farmar to lower the tempo and win steadily.

However, Famar is clearly on the top.

He was eaten continuously at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and now he is like a brute bull who has been trampled on his tail, and he can't wait to hit back.

Little did he know at this point that even if he crashed back, the NBA's impression of him would be greatly diminished: the NBA didn't like this kind of hot-headed guard.

What's more, he doesn't have much advantage in the face of Li Zhen now.

He was able to take what Li Zhen wanted before because of his absolute superiority in body strength. But now... Although there is still a gap, it is no longer enough to support Famar to do whatever he wants.

Burst! Burst!

After two consecutive hits to no avail, Famar quickly changed direction and tried to complete the assault directly, but was once again enveloped by Li Zhen's broad arm span, and he could only accelerate and break through one step, quickly retreat, and then jump out of his hand...... Bang!

Basketball hits iron.

With Bruce's physical condition, as long as he has the strength and strength to keep up, agility and coordination plus explosiveness, he can become a defensive titan at the No. 1 position. Look at his long arms, look at his giant palms, it's completely a top-tier defensive player's configuration. ”

Jason Kidd was full of praise.

Kobe Bryant nodded, not only did he agree that Lee Jin's long-armed giant palms were very good for defense. At the same time, I also found that Li Zhen's standing position is also very smart, although his lateral movement ability is weak, and his footsteps are not fast... However, the excellent positioning selection was the main reason why Famar was unable to make a direct breakthrough this time.

In other words, Li Zhen's basic conditions and brain are top-notch. But... Lack of strength, explosiveness, coordination, agility... And so on.

These things can be improved, but I just don't know how much they can be improved.

That's why many teams are on the sidelines.

At the same time, Scott forced the rebound on Baias's head and handed it to Lee Zhen again.

When Li Zhen brought the basketball to the frontcourt, the UCLA head coach on the sidelines quickly made changes and adjustments. He asked Afflalo, the number one defensive expert, to mark Li Zhen.

In an instant, Li Zhen felt the defensive pressure that covered the sky.

Afflalo's height and reach are all at the level of an authentic small forward, and he has a lot of experience defensively, neither pressing forward nor letting his guard down.

Standing in front of Li Zhen like this, it is already a natural barrier!

Li Zhen tried several assaults, but they were all blocked...... The weakness of explosiveness made it impossible for him to cut the defense apart in a flash.

At this time, Scott hurriedly came out to cover for him.

Under Scott's cover, Lee's speed advantage finally came to play on the second step, and he cut into the three-point line quickly and left the pursuing Afflaro a step behind.

Afflalo is actually a little puzzled by this: why is it so fast for a bad person with explosive power?

At this moment, Bruce Lee had already rushed into the free throw line, and in the face of the oncoming defender, he paused for a moment to attract Baias to step up and hit the basketball directly into the ground...... Bang! The basketball quickly rebounded into the depths of the box, Frank Benson received the basketball, faced the Stanford small forward's defense, and easily put the basketball into the basket with the advantage of the board.

Swish!

73:78。

It's only 5 points off.

There are more than three minutes left in the game.

The UCLA Bruins league called a timeout, and coach Ben Holland felt threatened. If this game is eliminated by Stanford's counterattack, then the entire UCLA will be disgraced.

Serious adjustments are needed.

Legendary alumnus Reggie Miller praised Ben Holland's timeout on television: "The timing was very good. I believe that as long as the Bruins come to their senses and push the game at the right pace, Stanford will have absolutely no chance of overtaking. The true strength between the two teams is not at all a level. ”

In fact, there is a consensus on this point.

Before the game, the vast majority of people thought that UCLA would win easily.

Judging from the current situation, Stanford has even played super.

But Li Zhen didn't think so, he gathered the players for the first time on the bench, and everyone gathered together.

In a determined voice, he told everyone, "We're not here to see the UCLA Bruins break into the elite quarterfinals again, and then throw their hands up in the air to cheer." ”

"A lot of people are saying that we've done wonders, it's amazing that we've been able to get to where we are now... But! ”

"it! Why can't we go further? ”

"With three minutes to go, we're only five points behind, so why should we give up a place in the quarterfinals to UCLA? Just because it's their home turf? Just because they are traditional giants? ”

"Trust me, guys! As long as we stick together, defend well and run in the right position. I will definitely lead you to the quarterfinals, and the crimson storm will not stop today. ”

"I hope that twenty years from now, when you look back on your college years, you will still be ... The blood is boiling, and there are still tears in my eyes! ”

Bruce Lee roared like a tiger in everyone's hearts.

Jamie Lin, who was standing next to him, saw with his own eyes that all the players, even TJ Wharton, had a resolute expression on their faces and clenched their fists fiercely.

As Li Zhen said, why should you give up the game? Why can't we continue to work miracles? It's... It's the greatest moment of our college career!

"Hands up."

“ONE-TWO-THREE，FIGHTING!!”

When Bruce Lee took the lead in shouting the slogan, the momentum displayed by the Stamford Crimson team was like a dead soldier on the battlefield!

The fighting spirit was completely ignited by Li Zhen.

Jamilin muttered in his heart: Bruce has changed, he is no longer the invisible man who sits silently at the end of the bench, he has not only played his own strength, but also played his own leadership charisma. Everyone was impressed by him.

He's right, everything has to be fought for by yourself. The golden mean is hard to survive in American basketball.

Jamie Lin had a feeling in his heart. In fact, his basketball life also unknowingly embarked on a different path.

……

ESPN's camera was always on the Stanford bench, so Bruce's shout was broadcast to the national audience word for word.

When Li Zhen shouted the sentence, "I hope that twenty years later, when everyone looks back on their college years, when they talk about today's game, they are still... The blood is boiling, and there are still tears in my eyes! Many people were touched by it, and the small flame in their hearts was irrepressibly ignited.

Many middle-aged men are even starting to think about a football game in their middle school days... Look at my fat and sagging belly now, what a beautiful time it was, it really makes people's blood boil when they think about it, and tears in their eyes!

As a result, the spectator mentality subconsciously shifted from neutrality or inclination towards UCLA to support Stanford.

They can empathize, and for this underdog, second-rate team, today is indeed the most glorious moment of their basketball career.

Reggie Miller rubbed his eyelids in the live room, and he looked at his excited partner Hollinger next to him.

Then he muttered: So, our UCLA has just become the kind of foil team in the plot of the movie that is killed by the weak and the strong?
