Chapter 300: From China
"The strong duel may not be exciting, but it is enough to have ups and downs."
UCLA's lead lasted a full 15 minutes, the 15 minutes of halftime.
Kentucky took the lead back on the first goal of the second half and held the lead for a long time afterward.
Larry. Bell's horror is also revealed, Gatlin only told him once how to break the opponent's iron defense, and it was only a theoretical explanation, he fully understood the essence of it, so that UCLA's proud defensive system has been shattered, the shackles of restriction have disappeared, and Larry is like a beast back to the deep forest, looking for his prey with angry eyes.
He played too depressing in the second quarter, and the reason for all this was Damian and Marek, who also became Larry's "number one targets".
"Which of you two starts to destroy first?" Larry hesitated between the two, after all, the defense was done by the two of them, and both Damian and Marek had to be destroyed.
"Well, let's destroy it together." Larry took a look and decided to get rid of the two together.
At this moment, Damian and Marek did not realize that the disaster was coming, and in the face of the surging Larry, the two still put on an iron wall defense to deal with it, but the moment the two sides touched, the iron wall defense was destroyed.
Larry found the weakest part of the Iron Wall, then turned himself into a sharp blade and plunged into it.
The defense was torn open in an instant, and Larry struck between the two, who were bounced away after receiving a powerful impact.
"The power is stronger again."
Single-handedly overwhelmed the joint defense of the two, or an ironclad defense in a serious state, Larry deserves to be an inside beast.
UCLA's interior line was completely lost, and under Larry's frequent impacts, the champion interior partners of Damian and Marek were crushed and incomplete.
"This bastard." Damian struggled to push Larry, but it was useless, and he was pushed back to the inside.
"I'll help you!" Marek also defended together, barely controlling Damian's retreat speed, but Larry had already reached the basket, stood still, violently closed the ball, and his body seemed to form a powerful wall of qi, making it impossible for others to get close!
Rumble!
Larry angrily smashed the basketball into the hoop, and after the goal, Larry grabbed the basket with both hands and hung it in the air, looking at Damian and Marek with contempt, both of whom were also looking at him with horror.
"Is this what a champion is capable of?" As soon as Larry sent it with both hands, the deformed basket that was caught quickly rebounded, and with a loud bang, the basket also vibrated with it, and when Larry hit the ground, Larry's feet stepped on the floor hard, and there was another loud noise, as if it was about to crush the entire floor.
"Looks like that's the only way to go." Damian really has no choice but to use hidden tactics.
"That trick may not be able to restrain him." Larry is in full swing right now, and any defense seems to be destroyed by him, and even if he makes a killer move, he is likely to fail, and it may be better to keep it than to risk failure.
The two looked at Oscar together, and used their eyes to convey the message of the request.
Oscar left to understand the thoughts of the two, but his response was a slight shake of his head, those three hidden tactics are categorically unusable unless they are absolutely necessary, and they will only be allowed to be used at important moments, obviously not at important moments.
To put it bluntly, the game against Kentucky is nothing more than a warm-up game, which does not affect the qualification and does not matter the championship, and losing will only attract some negative evaluation, which does not matter to UCLA, which has grown up in criticism, on the contrary, without those doubts, UCLA will not be the school with the most championships in history.
Those criticisms and doubts are like a fertile ground for UCLA to continue to grow.
Oscar rejected the use of "new tactics", which made Damian and Marek a little helpless, but also understood that in order to win the championship, those three tactics are very important, and if they are exposed in advance, there will be no benefit to the team.
So, the two had to continue to put up with Larry. Bell's "destruction".
The third quarter was completely a solo show for Larry, scoring 18 points in a single quarter as Kentucky ended the third quarter with a 65-57 lead.
In the fourth quarter, Oscar and Gatlin started the match-up mode, and the aces of the two teams took over the game, and Oscar scored his 20th point of the game, while getting 10 rebounds and 13 assists, and the super triple-double was in hand.
However, UCLA did not win the competition.
Gatlin scored a game-high 43 points, which was only 10th on his single-game scoring charts.
The surprise of the game is undoubtedly Larry. Bell, he also scored 38 points, it is not easy for a freshman to cut such a high score in the hands of the championship team, and what is even more terrifying is that his shooting rate is as high as 80%.
Probably a coincidence, Larry. Bell and Gatlin combined for 81 points, almost all of the team's scores.
Felix's performance is fragmentary, sometimes good and sometimes bad, but with that over-the-top whistle-blowing three-pointer, the audience successfully remembered this freshman, he is the hope of UCLA, if Oscar and others retire, he is undoubtedly the future leader of UCLA.
After the game, the players of the two teams lined up to shake hands, Mu Chenfeng was the last in line, and the last player to shake hands with the Kentucky players.
"You're the Chinese boy?" When Larry. When Bell walked in front of Mu Chenfeng, he stopped, he was a little absent-minded in the previous handshake, but when he arrived at Mu Chenfeng, the anger he tried to suppress burned again, and standing in front of him was the player who snatched his qualification to enter UCLA, a player who couldn't even play.
Mu Chenfeng nodded firmly, and talked to Larry all the way. Bell looked at each other.
"You dare to look me in the eye?" Larry was a little surprised, ordinary people would deliberately dodge when they saw his eyes, but Mu Chenfeng was not, he seemed to be eager to meet those eyes.
"It's just a pair of eyes, and it doesn't kill." Mu Chenfeng responded.
This is obviously stimulating the other party, Larry's eyes are lethal, as long as the players who have looked at him will lose three points in momentum, but Mu Chenfeng is an exception, he is not afraid of those eyes.
"What's your name?" Larry asked.
"Mu Chenfeng, Mu Chenfeng from China." Mu Chenfeng deliberately added the name of his motherland in front of his name, which is the way he is accustomed to introduction.
But this did not make him get even a slight improvement in Larry's second place, but was even more disdainful by the other party.
โChina๏ผโ Larry couldn't help but laugh when he heard the word, "So you're still playing basketball, I thought you could only play table tennis." โ
