Chapter 196: The Return of the King

"You son of motherfxxker! Turner punched McCaw hard, "Every day I know that I want the ball from Hougist, and now the ball is given to you, you can't hold the 30-point lead, and now you still have the leisure to ridicule the boss's injury, why are you so shameless?" ”

"The atmosphere is too depressing, I just want to liven up the atmosphere, there are still 3 minutes left, that is, 180 seconds, we are still 13 points ahead, we are exhausted in 35 seconds of attack, even if the opponent can score a goal in 5 seconds, then it will take 40 seconds to go back and forth, and the remaining time is enough to play 4 rounds, even if they can score three points in each round, we don't score in each round, and the opponent can only chase 12 points, and the probability of us winning is still very high!" McCaw analyzed.

"Good math! You are a student of accounting! But when did we fall to the point of winning, it still depends on calculating the probability? A familiar voice came from behind them, and at some point Haugist was already standing behind them.

"The Boss is back!" I don't know who shouted excitedly, the surrounding audience also looked over, and saw that Hoggist was back on the bench, and the audience on the sidelines applauded passionately.

"Boss, I'll report it! Just now, McCaw was too prodigal on the field to wear up the lead! ”

"And he's still cursing you for not knowing whether you're alive or dead!" Everyone, you and I quickly listed McCaw's crimes.

"Patty, how did you promise me? I've given you the ball, are you going to play like this? Hogist asked reproachfully.

"Isn't that still 13 points ahead! Don't worry, I've calculated it, and I'll definitely be able to keep it! McCaw quibbled.

"Can you hold it? All I know is that if you want to win, you have to score more points than your opponent! Hougist asked McCaw, "If you can't, why are you embarrassed to ask me for the ball?" ”

"Boss, come back quickly! We're pushing back in waves! Witherspoon suggested.

Hoggist shook his head, and everyone remembered that Hoggist had just injured the back of his head, and they all thought that he shook his head because he didn't get the team's approval. Witherspoon asked, "Didn't you pass the concussion test?" ”

"Passed, but I promised to play when the margin was within 10 points, so McCaw!" Hoggist suddenly turned to McCaw, "It's up to you whether you can continue to control the ball or not. ”

"Rest on the bench! I'm not going to let you play again! McCaw said.

When the timeout came, Hoggist sat down on the bench, and the audience sighed when they saw that Hoggist was not going to play, and also thought that he had not passed the concussion test.

However, with Hoggist supervising the game on the sidelines, the temperament of UNLV's players immediately made a qualitative leap.

The return of Hougist seemed to inject a shot in the arm for Turner, and the exhausted Turner returned to his spirits and staged another dream step under the basket, causing Okafor to foul again, but after all, there were still some problems with his physical strength, and he only hit one of the two free throws. But Okafor has already reached his fourth foul and is only a fine line away from blowing himself up.

Time was running out, and Coach K didn't let Okafor go off the court, and Winslow and Okafor's pick-and-roll offense suddenly became very efficient at this point, and consecutive points helped Duke to chase the score to 90-79 with great tenacity. In the last 1 and a half minutes, Winslow broke through to make a layup and caused McCaw's foul, and added a free throw to narrow the gap to 8 points, and McCaw unknowingly this was the fifth foul!

The opponent's first scorer, Haugist, did not seem to pass the concussion test and could not return to the game. Turner was physically exhausted, and Patrick, the third scorer. McCaw left the court with five fouls, and Duke seemed to see hope for a comeback.

McCaw walked off the court with his head in chagrin, and Horgist smiled and handed over the towel, "Are you kidding me?" Just let me rest assured, won't let me play, why did you blow yourself up to me in an instant? ”

"Boss, don't taunt me, I admit I've always been a little arrogant, but aren't we all black people like this!" McCaw's pale and feeble defense provoked a collective complaint from his black teammates.

"Phew! We're not as arrogant as you are! ”

"Arrogance? Who would be arrogant in front of Hogist! Who has the ability to be arrogant in front of Haugist? ”

Hoggist calmed the crowd, took off his shooting uniform and threw it to a young black guy behind the bench, "Little brother, put it away, I've signed it in the locker room, this is this year's NCAA champion and MOP Hougist. The shooting suit that Hurley wore will be incredibly proud and proud to own this collection in the future! Hey, have I seen you somewhere? ”

The black guy got the shooting suit like a treasure, carefully folded it and put it in his bag, and happily replied: "Brother Hoggist, you are really good eye, I sat on the sidelines at the McDonald's All-Star Game last year!" My name is Markle. Fultz, also a high school player. ”

Hougist looked at Fultz carefully again, and nodded with satisfaction, "Young man, you are in good shape, you can see that you are very suitable for playing!" Come on, try to be the top pick in the draft! ”

"Me? When the champion? Fultz asked in disbelief, recalling his dismal average of 18.6 points and 2.6 assists per game this semester, which was less than half of the average points of Hougist's high school career, and his assists were even less than a fraction of Hougist's high school average.

"Young people, be confident in yourself, you are the sun at three or four o'clock in the morning!" Hoggist encouraged.

"Three or four in the morning? Isn't that no light at all? Fultz asked disappointedly.

"The sun is shining at all times, but sometimes people's vision is blocked by the rotation of the earth," Haugist laughs. Markle, know that Kobe Bryant is already training at four o'clock in the morning, the darkness can't stop you from trying to shine, and your light will always be seen by others over time! ”

Fultz seemed to be awakened by the words, and nodded very firmly. At this time, Hoggist also turned around and walked to the court, and when he passed by Coach Odom who was standing on the edge of the technical table, Haugist dropped a sentence: "Old man, don't be nervous, go back and prepare scissors and scissors net!" ”

Seeing Hoggist play, everyone in the Blue Devils team, who had just felt a glimmer of hope and enthusiasm, fell into the ice cellar in an instant. Hoggist dribbled slowly and leisurely towards the front court, and his body seemed to be full of flaws, but no one at Duke University dared to come up and steal, and Hougist sighed while dribbling in the front court: "Alas, these days, the people under my hands are too losers, and they can't hold on to them for 30 points, and I have to go out myself." ”

Hoggist's tone made his opponent uncomfortable, but there was no time for them to play, and as soon as Hoggist finished speaking, he jumped up and pulled out a three-pointer from 4 feet beyond the three-point line at the top of the arc. Winslow had already lost the opportunity, but he still spared no effort to pounce and try his best to interfere with Hoggist, but Hougist's shot was obviously small, and it was impossible to fly to the basket. Winslow was in the air wondering, but saw the evil smile on the corner of Haugist's mouth after he landed.

Winslow hurriedly looked back, and it turned out that the ball was not a three-pointer from a long point, but a hoist to Turner at the free-throw line. By the time Winslow landed, Hoggist had already run past him, cut inside and received a hand-to-hand pass from Turner, who stepped on the free-throw line to collect the ball and flew to dunk.

When he saw Haugist cut into the three-point line, Okafor had already let go of Turner and returned to the basket to block Haugist, so why not go up and block Haugist's breakthrough route? Because Okafor is not stupid, and he has not seen Haugist's athleticism, he is stupid to stand there and hit people with the ball? European step, turn back, stop and fall back, there are hundreds of ways to avoid yourself and score!

Haugist raised the ball in the air with his right hand, getting closer and closer to the basket, Okafor calculated the right time to pick up the block, but Haugist actually adjusted his attitude in the air and changed the ball to his left hand!

"This is a classic switching layup when the Flyer Jordan played the Lakers!" Owen exclaimed.

"After Jordan jumped, the center under the basket has already hidden, Hougist is a tough hit!" Lohr. Deng corrected.

Before the two could finish their sentences, Haugist and Okafor's bodies collided in the air, and Haugist dodged Okafor's block with his left hand and dunked the ball into the basket from the side with his arm.

"The ball was actually dunked in? That's a lot better than Jordan! Owen was even more shocked.

Lohr. Deng seems to be really more rational, when Irving underestimated Hougist, he had to come out to correct, but Owen is now overestimating Hougist, and he also has to come out to correct, "Hougister is not necessarily better than Jordan, he can fight back and dunk because of his long arms, you think about Blake. Griffin is physically stronger than Hougist, right? The bounce is stronger, right? If he changes hands, he will definitely not be able to reach the basket! ”

NBA professional players can objectively judge this ball, but the spectators on the sidelines are all in a frenzy, before UNLV led to 30 points when everyone thought that the game had completely entered garbage time, there was nothing to see, but I didn't expect the Duke players to tenaciously blow the horn of counterattack, after unremitting efforts to close the score to single digits, this script was already wonderful enough, But the return of the king of Hoggist actually staged a dazzling and wonderful personal performance for everyone, this dunk does not need to go through the program, it can be directly called the first dunk in the NCAA!

Hoggist landed with an understated nod and then turned and ran back, but as soon as he took two steps, the referee's whistle sounded intermittently, and the staccato was not as short and powerful as when he blew for an offensive foul or violation. Hoggist was curious and delusional about the referee, only to see the referee make a gesture for a foul.

It's too late, isn't it? Everyone looked at the referee curiously, and the referee smiled bitterly and explained to the technical table that the ball just now was so shocking that he forgot to blow the whistle for a while, Okafor's hitter fouled, and Hoogist added a penalty. Now Okafor also left the game with 5 fouls, and Duke's hope of chasing the score is even slimmer!

When Hougist saw that Duke's two seven-foot-long men were full of fouls and left the court, he suddenly played again, and remembered his old trick, so Hoggist returned to the free throw line, took the ball from the referee on the ground, spun it twice in his hand as usual, and then threw the ball directly. Jefferson had even run outside the baseline to get ready for the tee.

But Hoggist's free throw bounced up and flew back, Hoggist was naturally prepared, and it was activated at the moment when the ball bounced to the basket, and by the time everyone at Duke University reacted, Hoggist had already caught the ball in the air. Jefferson obediently waited at the bottom line, and didn't dare to go up to make up for the block, okay, a strong center like Okafor was beaten away by Hoggist, didn't he take the initiative to send free throws when he went up!

"Again?" Many people who have been on Hoggist, or have seen Hoggist play his opponent like this, sat in front of the TV and exclaimed at the same time.

In this way, Hogist completed this god-like dunk without defense. Amir then came up and picked up the ball to open the baseline, but Hougist's two dunks had killed the game, and almost all Duke players had given up the game in despair, only Winslow seemed to want to make a last effort, took the initiative to reach out to Amir for the ball, and then dribbled straight to the frontcourt, but the frontcourt faced a situation of 1 to 5. Hoggist stared at Winslow with a smile and didn't come up for a tackle, waiting until his teammates had all run lifelessly across the halfway line before Hoggist pressed up.

Seeing that Hoggist was about to come up, Winslow hurriedly changed direction with a behind-the-back dribble and broke through to the left side of Hougist. Horgist retreated sideways with Winslow's breakthrough route, always staying in front of Winslow, seeing that he was about to go to the basket, and if he didn't shoot, he had to retreat again, and now it was a back-to-back battle, Winslow had no way to retreat, so he could only jump up and shoot, and Horgist easily poked the ball out of bounds.

Duke sent a throw-in to organize the offense again, Winslow was stealing by Hougist without even catching the ball, Haugist easily and quickly dunked, there were 20 seconds left in the game, Duke had no chance at all, although Winslow was very unconvinced, but the last 20 seconds of practice Hoggist did not let him find a way to vent, Winslow dribbled until the end of the game and did not find a chance to shoot. In this way, UNLV defeated Duke University 96:82 and won the NCAA Championship for the first time in the new century!
