Chapter Eighty-Four: North Carolina's Status

But no matter what, Tang Tian asked the two brothers to report their homes, and finally distinguished them temporarily.

"You guys play North Carolina tonight, we'll go and see it." Marcus spoke.

"I'm looking forward to meeting you guys in the divisional finals." Markeef continued.

The two brothers said one sentence after another, and it felt like they were talking cross talk.

It is said that there will be special electrocardiogram and tacit understanding between twins, and it seems to be true.

"So do we." Walker spoke.

After winning the battle against Arizona, his confidence is now skyrocketing.

What about the zone of death, what about North Carduk, he just wants to defeat them one by one and finally win the championship, so that those so-called experts can take a good look at it, Kangda is far stronger than they imagined.

After a few brief greetings, Walker and Tang Tian went to the cashier to pay.

"It would be nice to fight Kansas first." Walker couldn't help but say that Kansas's strength is weaker than North Carolina, and if he plays Kansas first and then North Carolina, there will be a further transition like playing Arizona.

"Actually, it's going to be harder for us to play Kansas than North Carolina." Tang Tian's next words surprised Walker.

"Kansas' interior strength is stronger than North Carolina's, and our interior is only one Alex, and if Alex is beaten, our interior line will basically be gone." Tang Tian said.

Walker nodded thoughtfully.

Tang Tian said this is the truth, not to mention playing North Carolina and Kansas, before playing San Diego State University, after Oriage went down, the inside line of UConn would not be able to do it at all, if it wasn't for Mazhukqi's soldiers, they would have been eliminated long ago.

"But in fact, whether it's North Carolina or Kansas, we have to have an absolute advantage." Tang Tian continued.

"Huh?" Walker looked at Tang Tian suspiciously.

"You." Tang Tian said with a smile.

"Marshall in North Carolina, Tayshawn Taylor in Kansas, one against odd differences, one with a lot of turnovers, one-on-one you can beat them."

Walker was stunned for a moment, then stroked his head with a smile.

Although Tang Tian was right, he was a little embarrassed to praise him.

The game between North Carolina and UConn is close at hand, and not only fans of the two schools, but also the NBA side is paying far more attention than other games.

North Carolina Tar Heel, also known as North Carolina Blue, has 5 championship titles, second only to UCLA and Kentucky in the NCAA, and beats the city's rival Duke University.

Of course, it's not just his NCAA results that make North Carolina so famous, it's also because of one person, Michael Jordan.

Jordan's stats in North Carolina are not explosive, and he averaged only 17.5 points per game in his sophomore year, but this is the request of his mentor Dean Smith to suppress his desire to score and let him lead his teammates to play team basketball.

This approach allowed Jordan to form a selfless playing style and tenacious character in the future, which helped him become the "God of Basketball" in the NBA league.

In layman's terms, North Carolina made Jordan, and Jordan also made North Carolina with his future performance.

Because of Jordan, North Carolina's popularity in the United States actually overshadows UCLA, Kentucky and Duke.

Take, for example, the place where this competition was held.

Theoretically, according to the rules, the venue of the tournament should be held in a neutral city, but there is no such thing as absolute neutrality, because there are basically NCAA schools in large cities, and it is nothing more than the strength of these schools.

The NCAA is even less likely to put the tournament in a small city for the sake of neutrality, and they also have to make money, so when choosing a location, bias is unavoidable, and with the fact that these locations were selected a year ago, the bias is even more obvious.

Charlotte is located in North Carolina, where both Duke and North Carolina play, and playing in Charlotte is home for both schools.

With the big game just around the corner, Charlotte can be said to be the whole city, and the local sports media don't even cover the NBA game, but follow the game all the time.

At around 6 p.m. that night, the Charlotte Bobcats hosted the Phoenix Suns.

The Bobcats are now in 10th place in the East and are making their final push to make the playoffs, while opponents the Suns are in a similar situation, and this game will be crucial for both sides and can be expected to be a tight battle.

However, the number of viewers at the scene of this game hit a new low in the season, and the attendance rate was less than 30%, and the scene was sparse and slightly miserable.

Vince Carter is a member of the Suns, and because he is a North Carolina alumnus, reporters talked to him before the game.

"Vince, the attendance at the scene tonight is not very high, have you ever been in this situation before?" The reporter asked.

"Yes, of course, every March." Kardat nodded.

"Would you mind? Because there are not many people watching the game live. ”

"No, no, I don't mind, I envy them because I can't go there tonight." Carter said with a smile.

"North Carolina and Connecticut, who do you think will win?" The reporter then asked.

"North Carolina, North Carolina night, of course!" Carter replied without hesitation, so that he made a winning gesture towards the camera.

"It's just a bit of a shame that I can't go to the scene to cheer on the boys in North Carolina." He then said with a little regret.

Carter couldn't go to the game because he had to play, but the appearance of another North Carolina alumnus caused the Bank of America Stadium to boil.

Michael Jordan, the NBA's basketball god and the small owner of the Bobcats, gave up watching the Bobcats' key games and ran to the scene instead.

This was completely expected, and the North Carolina game was in Charlotte, and as the most well-known alumnus of North Carolina, it would not be appropriate for him not to come.

Jordan's appearance also made all the fans on the scene fall into a boil.

Jordan waved to the crowd, and his presence also greatly boosted the confidence of the North Carolina players.

"There's a Gundam on the enemy." Tang Tian couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

Of the more than 50,000 spectators tonight, more than 30,000 are from North Carolina, and Kang Da is less than 20,000, and the number of fans is below.

"What?" Walker heard Tang Tian muttering, and leaned over to ask.

"I said Jordan was so handsome." Walker certainly doesn't know the language of the future, he said casually.

"Not as handsome as you." Walker spoke.

“…… I mean, he's got a lot of aura. Tang Tian's face was black.

"Hmm." Walker nodded in agreement, Jordan's aura is unmatched in the basketball world.

"But no matter how big the aura is, it's useless, I can't play anyway, and Jordan watched the North Carolina game before, and the North Carolina lost." He continued.

Tang Tian nodded.

Jordan's appearance is a great encouragement to the fans, but it may not be necessary for the players in North Carolina, the basketball god is sitting on the sidelines, and the psychological pressure of the players must be great, which is not necessarily a good thing for those players with average psychological quality.
