Chapter 70: The NCAA Comes to an End

Bai Xiaonian, who threw the lore ball, and Honeycut, who rushed over, hugged each other tightly, and the two good friends jumped and jumped happily, and the reason why Bai Xiaonian was able to score the ball in the end was half of Honeycutter's credit.

As the UCLA players and fans celebrated wildly, the referee stepped forward and raised his hand to signal everyone to return to their positions and remind them that the game was not over yet.

Of course, no one on the Bruins team thought Duke had any chance of turning the tables around, and 3.7 seconds was too short for a long game, and there was no doubt that the winner of the game would be UCLA!

"77-76 UCLA defeated Duke University by one point to advance to the Final Four, so let's congratulate the Bruins boys with the warmest applause! At this moment, they are the heroes of Poly Arena! Kenan Dees continued to scream from the commentary podium, believing in his mind that the winner of the game was the Bruins.

But the Duke players didn't show any frustration and silently walked to their backcourt to serve.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaonian also beckoned his teammates to stand in a good position! Although they are now halfway through the victory, they will need to wait for the final whistle to blow to truly reap the joy, and before that is to defend Duke with the last attack to ensure that the victory belongs to the Bruins.

The moment Irving caught the ball in the backcourt, Bai Xiaonian shouted at Honeycutter next to him and rushed up, Irving, as the absolute core of Duke University, they would never allow him to shoot the ball in the end.

said that it was too late, the time of almost 2 seconds was fleeting, and Owen was firmly locked in the half court by Bai Xiaonian and the two.

Seeing that he was completely restrained, Owen suddenly stepped on the UCLA logo and took a step back to get out of Bai Xiaonian's control, and then escaped from Honeycutter's clutches with two consecutive backdribbles, watching the timer that was about to return to zero, Owen threw the ball to the basket desperately, and the basketball left his palm at the last moment when the timer turned red.

Honeycutter, who had completed his task, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, he didn't think he could throw in a three-pointer like Irving's blind shot, and the probability of scoring such a ball was about as high as if he had won the lottery.

Honeycutt, who was about to walk over and have a bear hug with Bai Xiaolai, suddenly found out why was the court so quiet? Where is the deafening cheers of the fans just now?

Suspiciously, he glanced up at Bai Xiaonian, who was standing still in place, and Honeycut finally saw the tears of unwillingness and imminent bursting reflected in the little white boy's shoes.

Turning his head suddenly, the basketball that had just slipped into the sky had fallen through the net to the ground, bouncing on the ground weakly and struggling a few times before it stopped moving.

The score on the big scoreboard behind the blood-red timer quietly jumped to 77-78, and UCLA trailed Duke by two points. But this time they didn't have the opportunity to make amends like Duke just now, and the game was over! It's over! They were counter-killed...

“… I don't know what I'm going to say at this point! But congratulations to Duke University for winning this game through a whole hard-fought battle, and we also want to thank the UCLA Bruins, who would never have been able to bring us such a great game without their hard work. ”

Charles Barkley calmed his excitement and earned the respect of his big man even though UCLA lost the game.

The players of the Bruins on the court were suddenly a little dazed, obviously they were still holding the victory just now, why did they run into someone else's pants pocket in the blink of an eye?

Except for a very small number of fans who came to the scene to cheer for Duke University, the vast majority of UCLA fans began to leave the stadium silently, and these fans were heartbroken to see their team being killed.

Emma, who was far away in London, covered her mouth with a face full of disbelief, she had just picked up her mobile phone and wanted to have a pleasant victory call with the people on the TV, but when she picked up the phone, she saw the scene of UCLA being killed by Duke University, even if the mobile phone slipped from the palm of her hand, she didn't know, and she felt like a knife when she looked at the person who lost her soul on the TV.

Bai Xiaonian stood on the UCLA logo, looking up at the ceiling of the Poly Arena slightly, he was afraid that the tears in his eyes would fall out when he lowered his head, and he understood that his NCAA career was over the moment he saw Irving's ball drilled into the net.

And Ben Holland, who was originally smiling on the sidelines, also collapsed suddenly, but as the head coach of the team, he quickly collected his emotions and walked on the field to hug his disciples, and no one needed comfort more than them at this time.

Owen, who killed UCLA, also came over and patted Bai Xiaonian on the shoulder to show friendship, after this difficult game, he really recognized Bai Xiaonian's opponent, although Duke University won the game in the end, but there was no decision between the two of them.

"Man, you're a great opponent, we'll fight again in the NBA in the future!"

After speaking, Owen directly gave Bai Xiaonian a hug, which can be regarded as a tribute to this respectable guy.

"Thank you..."

Our little white children's shoes were hugged by Owen and regained consciousness, and said with a reluctant smile.

It was not only Bai Xiaonian who gained respect in this game, but also Owen deserved the warmest applause.

After the loss of the recent kill, most of the Bruins players had a friendly exchange with the Duke players after the game, and a game is not the whole of life, they are still young, which means that in the world of basketball, anything is possible.

After the game, UCLA's head coach Ben Holland spoke to reporters.

"Mr. Ben Holland, what are your thoughts on the team's defeat today?" The journalist asked.

"I just want to say boys, I'm so proud of you, every Bruins kid is unique in my eyes, and we wouldn't be where we are today without any of them."

Ben Holland said with a kind face, and it could be seen that he was satisfied with the performance of his disciples.

"So what do you have to say about Wood White, who is going to participate in this year's NBA Draft?" The reporter then asked.

"Hahahaha, I never deny that Wood is the best member of our team, and there is no doubt that he will achieve more in the NBA than in the NCAA era!" With that, Ben Holland waved his hand at the camera and walked to the team locker room, where there was a group of children who needed him to comfort.

On the other side of the press room, Duke head coach Mike Ashzewski was also in an interview.

"I'm very happy with the result of this match, I always believed that Irving had the ability to finish the game, and of course UCLA was a very respectable opponent who fought until the last second of the game, but today luck was on our side...", Coach K said to the camera.

"What do you think of Wood-White's quasi-lore?" The reporter asked.

"You know, Wood White is the top outside player in the NCAA right now, so I'm not surprised that he can shoot that kind of ball. But to be honest, I was terrified, I thought we were going to be eliminated, but luckily Owen stepped up..."

Coach K patted his chest and said.

In a few words in an interview, he made no secret of his appreciation for Bai Xiaonian, and admitted that the biggest regret in the past few years is that he has not been able to coach Bai Xiaonian in person...
