Chapter 158: Champion! Champion!
The current Florida is simply a tragedy, attack, can't attack, the defense of the group of bastards on the opposite side is not much worse than their own; Defend it, but you can't prevent it, although every time Colorado State attacks intentionally delays time, people can just score the ball when the offensive time limit is approaching, and you can't disagree with this.
Of course, the Florida players will certainly not sit still, although they are now on the opposite side, but the gap does not seem to be huge, and with twelve or thirteen minutes to go before the end of the game, it is theoretically possible to turn the tables against the wind. As long as the players can show their average level, it is not impossible to narrow the difference or even equalize.
As the outside core of the team, Miller stood up deservedly, and with his character, of course, he couldn't do anything to steal the point guard's job, but when Nelson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Miller decisively asked him for the ball, ready to break the big Colorado iron bucket formation. At the stake between the team's life and death, Miller instantly exploded into his own small universe, and a continuous change of direction passed through the gap between Palesio and Patick, and won the whistle of neutral fans.
Miller didn't continue to rush to the basket, before he watched Nelson's breakthrough to know what the hell Colorado's big basket was like, with his ability to finish under the basket is basically a hat, let alone score, whether it can cause the opponent to foul or not. However, Miller also has his own way, the joint defense only can't prevent the position of the horn area, or it takes a lot of effort to make up for it, for a player like him who likes to shoot, coming to the horn area is considered to be in the shooting range.
Without waiting for Ford to step forward to make a defense, Miller made an emergency stop, pulled up on the spot and shot, and the ball obediently drilled into the basket. He swung his fist hard, glanced at his rival, and stepped back into his own half. For Miller's small actions, the big players in Colorado didn't pay attention to it at all, there are more people who face the provocation of their team, and Miller is not bad, anyway, as long as he can get the final victory, it is the best slap in the face.
Turning back, Korver received another pass from the outside, but this time he didn't have room to shoot, and Weeks was already viciously pressing. Although he was a head shorter, his momentum was not covered, and Korver was even worried that if he dared to make a move, this guy would dare to scrap himself in the game, so frightened that he quickly threw the ball to Palesio.
Seeing that Korver suddenly became cowardly, Chang Wei shook his head helplessly, he had praised this kid before, but now it seems that he still has a long way to go! Whether it's the NBA or the NCAA, cowardice can't be famous, of course, no one cares about you off the court, anyway, it won't affect the record, but you must be tough when you should be tough on the court, the more you coax people, the more they will catch you and beat you, if it's harder, others can only look at you arrogantly but don't dare to do anything to you.
For example, Pallesio did a very good job, although Nelson had already made up for the defense in place, and the whole person rushed up, but Pallesio didn't look at it, and directly pulled out a three-point shot, which also caused Nelson's push foul and a free throw. This is the realm of old fritters, and Korver still needs to learn from his predecessors......
But Miller is only one person, and even if he is covered in iron, he can't hit a few nails. The rest of the people in Florida basically couldn't help him, so he could only do the work of covering, grabbing rebounds, etc., and forcibly stuffed all the shots to Miller. The biggest negative impact of such a shot is physical strength, after all, on the basketball court, everyone will subconsciously spend more effort on the ball holder, not to mention that the ball holder is still the opponent's top scorer, and it is normal to die.
While Miller's shooting percentage slowly declined, the Colorado players still maintained a good shooting percentage, after all, McKay put Korver on the court, which also limited Florida's joint defense to a certain extent. Pallesio basically rushes inside every round, either scoring or passing, and it is called an easy play.
Teammates know that this is the captain's last game in the NCAA, and the atmosphere of the team is usually very good, seeing Palesio ready to brush, it is simply a three-army life, for a while Palesio has risen a lot in both scoring and assisting, if he can win the game, the Most Outstanding Player (MOP) in the Final Four basically has to run.
Of course, now it looks like the victory in this game is also in hand. Although there are many fans who doze off with scolding, everyone in Colorado doesn't have any embarrassing feelings, for a small school like them that is not famous, winning an NCAA championship can go down in history, who cares how you got it?
As the game time decreases little by little, the restlessness on the Colorado bench is getting bigger and bigger, if it is placed in the NBA, it is estimated that the referee will come over to give a technical foul, but everyone knows what this is, seeing that the championship is close in front of him, and the person who can still maintain his expression is not a person, and it becomes normal to be excited.
In the end, there are no explosive points in this game, but there are a lot of urine points, and Colorado State just used the opponent's way to gain an advantage, and then turned the advantage into a victory, and then? Just wait for the game time to end.
When Miller hit a point-blank three-pointer, the final whistle blew and the entire arena shook, with noise decibels reaching the highest level of the night. The Colorado State players and coaches had already jumped up from their chairs, rushed to the field and hugged each other with their own players on the field, and a few guys who were usually very noisy also played Arhats.
This is the first NCAA championship in Colorado history, and while it's not sure if it's the last, at least there's such a trophy in the school's honor showroom, and that's a glory that can be boasted about for a long, long time. Chang Wei stood quietly on the sidelines alone, looking at his companions who were crying and laughing on the court, with a hint of a smile on his face.
The atmosphere in the arena reached a climax when the staff brought in the ladder and Palesio climbed up as a representative of Colorado to cut the white net, with Colorado players and coaches forming in a circle and bowing to the fans for their support of the evening, even though most of them were not die-hard fans of the team.
McKay walked over to Chang Wei, gave him a warm hug, and whispered in his ear, "Thank you, Chang, thank you for everything you have done for the team, I hope to continue fighting here with you!" ”
