Chapter 60 - Finally Winning the Championship

"Lee, I don't want to do that, but if you do this in the game, I have to give you a technical foul." The referee stepped forward and patted Li Yao's shoulder and said helplessly.

Immediately, the referee's voice was also transmitted, and the laughter of the audience was even louder.

After the referee's explanation, Li Yao realized that he was indeed pretending to be too forced, Wade's "this is my house" is the ultimate pretending routine after each lore, although Li Yao used it in the game, but that time he just shouted this slogan, and did not jump on the technical table like today.

I didn't expect to be sanctioned by the referee on the first official attempt today.

"Lee, aren't you going down yet? Do you still want to eat a second technical foul? The referee looked at Li Yao's cute expression and couldn't help laughing.

"Oh, oh." Hearing the referee's second warning, Li Yao quickly jumped down from the technical table.

The laughter at the scene was even louder.

Even Margot Robbie, who was behind the bench, was amused by the cute scene of her boyfriend.

"This forced pretending is really magnificent." When Li Yao returned to defend with a disgraced face, Jackson couldn't help but tease.

"me off." Li Yao didn't want to be embarrassed at this time, and kicked Jackson's ass without hesitation.

Laughter here, Derek. Rose's face was all blue.

In this finals, his performance was completely incomparable to Li Yao, which made Derek. The resentment in Rose's heart stacked exponentially.

Derek. When Ross attacked again, he didn't think much about it at all, and went to Li Yao.

Li Yao didn't expect Derek. Rose would have such a straightforward assault, but thinking about it, wasn't it because of Derek just now. Rose's dunk is not happy.

At the moment when the two made physical contact, Derek. Rose suddenly made a spinning top-like movement, directly from Li Yao's side and swiped into the inside line, facing Robin. Lopez's defense, the air lever licked the basket with a backhand and put the ball firmly into the basket.

After Derek. Rose's body fell to the ground uncontrollably, and this series of difficult movements was not at all better than Li Yao's previous set.

However, compared to Li Yao's domineering, Derek. Rose's goal was even more agile.

Derek pulled up by his teammates. Rose still didn't forget to look at Li Yao defiantly.

However, since Li Yao has pretended to be the most perfect force in this game, Li Yao is no longer in the mood to face off with Rose, and continues to hang the inside line, allowing the Lopez brothers to continue to play high.

Although Derek. The Memphis twins of Ross and C.D. Roberts kept chasing the score, but thanks to Stanford's big advantage on the inside, the margin never came close.

With three minutes remaining, Stanford was still ahead of Memphis by more than 10 points.

Coach Calipari called a lonely timeout for the last timeout.

"We can't go on like this, or we're going to run out of time with Stanford students, and that's not what we want to see, so next, Rose, Roberts, I need you two to give me a bold shot from beyond the three-point line. Dorsey, if the two of them don't make the shot, I need you to do everything you can to get the rebound in the front court, and only then we have a glimmer of hope. "Coach Calipari can only bet all his bets on the three-point shots of the backcourt twins, although neither Derrick can be a three-point shot. Ross and C.D. Roberts, neither of whom are good three-point shooters, but now they have no choice but to do so at Memphis.

"Don't worry, coach, the victory will be ours in the end." Derek. Rose gritted his teeth and said firmly.

"That's right." C.D. Roberts joined the rest of the University of Memphis in making a promise to his coach.

"Very well, guys, go ahead and show everyone what you're capable of, the championship will definitely belong to our University of Memphis in the end." Coach Calipari was also infected by his own disciples, and his desire to win has never been stronger.

"Boys, we're only three minutes away from the championship and you're going to be one of the history-makers, so we're going to have to settle down for the next three minutes, because Memphis is going to be crazy about shooting three-pointers after the timeout to close the gap, so our next defensive strategy is to put two points and defend the opponent's three-pointers." At the time of the Stanford timeout, Coach Trent Johnson also expressed his thoughts on the upcoming game to his disciples.

"Don't worry, coach, we won't give away the fruits of victory that we have already had." Robin. Lopez was the first to speak.

But when he saw that everyone at Stanford looked at him in surprise, Brooke. Lopez also understands that he seems to have overstepped his authority just now, because at this time, it is often Li Yao, the core of the team, who stands up. Lopez suddenly cast a distressed gaze at Li Yao, and this feeling of being stared at by everyone was really bad.

"Coach, we have a saying in China that says, 'Can a boiled duck fly?' Rest assured, we will bring the trophy back to Stanford. Li Yao solemnly assured coach Trent Johnson that the victory or defeat of this game is not only about his future path, but also a historic breakthrough for Stanford University, so Li Yao must win the victory steadily.

"Alright, boys, it's up to you next." Before the Stanford players came on the pitch, coach Trent Johnson spoke to his protégé.

The players on both sides were full of fighting spirit at this time, and the outcome of this game will have a crucial impact on them.

Derek. Rose broke through the perimeter and gave the ball to C.D. Roberts and immediately ran back for cover.

C.D. Roberts, however, didn't pay attention to Derrick Rose, who had already run out of the open space, and after a step inside against Jackson's defense, it was followed by a step-back three-point jumper, and the basketball bounced twice on the basket and finally bounced out.

However, to the embarrassment of everyone at Stanford, their own interior twin towers actually collided together because of the scramble for this defensive rebound, and the basketball was instead beaten by Joey on the side. Dorsey picked it up.

Joey picked up this unexpected rebound. Dorsey, without hesitation, threw the ball to Derrick outside the three-point line. Ross.

But in Derek. The moment Rose was about to catch the ball, a palm suddenly appeared on the line of the pass and cut the pass off.

The owner of this palm is none other than Li Yao, and when everyone's attention was attracted by the collision between the two Lopez brothers scrambling for rebounds, he spotted Joey for the first time. Dorsey picked up the rebound, and he believed that Derrick, who is the core of the University of Memphis. Ross must be Joey. Dorsey was the first to pass the target, so he locked the passing line between the two of them and easily intercepted the ball from the air.

Li Yao launched a fast attack as usual as usual after the steal, and everyone at Stanford was very puzzled, shouldn't the compression time be controlled at this time, why did Li Yao still have a fast attack?

Derek. Although Ross didn't know why Li Yao didn't compress the time, since Li Yao was about to attack, of course he had to go up to defend as soon as possible to see if he could wait for the opportunity to defend this fast attack.

But to everyone's surprise, Li Yao, who was rushing to the frontcourt, suddenly stopped outside the three-point line, and the transition between sprinting and stopping was so abrupt.

And Derek, who was chasing after the defense. Rose was caught off guard and wanted to brake urgently, but his feet slipped and he fell directly.

Li Yao was taken aback by the scene in front of him, he never thought that he just wanted to quickly dribble to the front court and then control the offensive time. Rose fell beside him.

Derek. Rose wished there was a crack in the ground at this time for him to get into.

Derek chasing the defense. Rose had already fallen, and there was an empty space in front of Li Yao, but this was not the time to show off, and Li Yao was still quietly dribbling the ball outside the three-point line.

Get up and get up Derek. Rose wanted to go up and foul directly, but after glancing at the timer, he felt that he was putting time aside.

After everyone was in position at Stanford, Li still hung the basketball to the Lopez brothers with only 7 seconds left on the offensive time.

Brooke. Lopez didn't disappoint Li Yao at all, pressing Joey. Dorsey was a hook and scored the ball steadily.

Offensive and defensive exchange, Derek. Rose quickly dribbled the ball to the front court, and took a direct shot from outside the three-point line, which was completely unexpected by Li Yao. Rose, not Stephen. Curry, how do you throw three-pointers like this?

But what surprised Li Yao even more was that this extraordinarily unreasonable three-point shot actually went in.

However, Li Yao did not panic at all, after all, his team still had a 10-point lead, and Li Yao was hugged by Rose as soon as he received the baseline ball, and the University of Memphis finally began foul tactics.

Steadily put two free throws in, Li Yao immediately waved his teammates and began to press all over the court, since you don't have a timeout, you want to make free throws from the bottom line, and you have to grab three points, then we will delay your offensive rhythm as much as possible.

As Li Yao thought, the full-court pressing defense was a good way to limit the offensive tempo of the University of Memphis. Rose couldn't get to the front court the quickest.

But Derek. Rose dribbled beyond the three-point line and forced a shot against Lee's defensive block, but the basketball did not get into the basket as he prayed. Lopez is firmly in his arms.

The University of Memphis continued foul tactics, and Brooke. Lopez also scored the ball steadily.

When Rose missed another three-point shot, everyone in the room knew that the game had been decided.

When Li Yao grabbed the rebound in the last 3 seconds and threw the basketball on the court to celebrate, the winner of the '08 NCAA championship was also decided, and that was Stanford University.
