Chapter 40: The Finals (1)

The game is about to start, the players of the two teams began to carry out the entrance ceremony, and the enthusiastic audience shouted for the team they supported, of course, there were some insults or ** voices, there was no calm before the storm, and there were countless noises.

When Huang only stepped into Ford Arena in Detroit, his entire body was filled with excitement that stimulated his strong heart to bump into the acceleration. He raised his head and looked around, and now there were tens of thousands of spectators waving their flags and shouting, perhaps for themselves or for their enemies.

At this moment, he knew that this was what he had dreamed of in his previous life and in this life, and this was hidden in his bones. In the previous life, either because of lack of ability or because of lack of opportunity, I was not qualified to appear in such a scene, standing in the middle. And now I am here, enjoying the attention of tens of thousands of people, and tens of millions of people watching this on TV and the Internet. They are all looking forward to their own performances, waiting for their own performances, and the only thing Huang has to do next is to conquer them with his own performance.

If you have the qualifications, the opportunity is in front of you, and the ability is even more proper, since this is the case... Just let yourself bloom to the fullest, Huang Wei said to himself secretly.

Routinely, before the game, the national anthem was played and the national flag was raised (the old Mei loves this).

The starters of both sides of the game stood on the court, stuck around the center circle with their opponents, and there were four people standing in the middle, except for the two players who jumped the ball on both sides, the two legendary superstars who were in charge of the kick-off tonight, Larry Bird and "Magic" Johnson, who will throw the basketball in their middle into the air at the same time after the referee's whistle blows.

The starting line-up between the two sides is as follows: USC: PG Huang Only SG DeRozan SF Christian PF Gibson C Jerome

North Carolina: PG Ty Lawson SG Danny Green (really that's every time) SF Wayne Ellington PF Dion Thompson C Tyler Hansbrough

In terms of strength, there is no doubt that the strength of USC is indeed inferior to that of North Carolina, and the lineup is also very restrained. It can be said unceremoniously that this year, USC can enter the finals this year, in addition to the team's strong and almost invincible offensive power due to Huang's only combing offense, it also relies on the strong firepower support of the other two stars to attract the opponent's defense, so that the role players have enough offensive space, otherwise the so-called strong offensive power of running and bombing cannot be formed. (If there is no queen in the late sun)

But today in the face of North Carolina that can be said to have a luxury lineup, it is really almost, the "post-Jordan era" North Carolina can still occupy the position of the giants by relying on their strong lineup almost every year, of course, this is more or less relying on Jordan's shadow, after all, this is the biggest and most famous sign of North Carolina, of course, North Carolina's team building concept is also very important, the University of North Carolina meritorious coach Dean Smith once said: "North Carolina people either become superstars or withdraw from the league, and there are few examples of becoming 'blue-collar stars'." It is a pity that after 10 years, North Carolina was mired in academic scandals, and the NCAA also entered the "super coach era", and North Carolina will inevitably follow the trend and make changes in the future, which is why North Carolina has rarely traveled after 10 years, but stars can win the championship in 15 years.

This year's North Carolina squad can be described as another year of peak after entering the 21st century, except for the 04-05 season with the "North Carolina Four Less", they may not have the shocking talent of the "North Carolina Four Less", but they definitely have strong strength.

Point guard Ty Lawson (template: T.J. Ford), 1.83 meters, 21 years old, is undoubtedly the absolute commander of the three armies in North Carolina, with strong ball control ability and super fast speed can easily tear apart the opponent's defense, coupled with extraordinary steal ability, in addition to his height is a hard injury, even if he enters the NBA, he will become a star-level player.

Wayne Ellington scoring guard (template: JJ Redick), 1.95 meters, 21 years old and weighing 88 kilograms, is a junior in North Carolina this year, but he has the top projection ability of the NCAA, but because of his average body, he is likely to become the next Redick, there is a statistic that is quite interesting, that is, as long as his average shooting rate per game is 50%, North Carolina has a record of 49 wins and 0 losses! It is conceivable that if he can't limit him tonight, USC's dream of winning the championship is probably hanging.

Danny Green Shooting Guard/Small Forward (Template: Francisco Garcia), 1.98m, 21-year-old senior veteran of the season, lethal outside shooter, very good at catch-and-shoot shots; Average ball control, very aggressive running off the ball; He is excellent defensively, not very athletic, flexible enough to switch guards, and a top 3D player.

Dion Thompson, power forward, 2.03 meters, 20 years old, a typical coolie power forward in the third grade, has a strong body and defense, can grab rebounds, and has a certain scoring ability.

Tyler Hansbrough, power forward/center, 2.06m, 23-year-old senior (template: Luis Scola) former All-Around College Player, Naismith Award winner, the big man who gave up the draft after losing to Kansas last year and chose to stay in school, the ACC league's all-time scoring leader, is now the true soul of North Carolina, averaging 20.9 points and 8.1 rebounds per game.

Look at this lineup Huang Wei really thinks Alexander, Huang Wei Gadro Zan plus Christian can barely eliminate North Carolina's three outside lines, and the inside Jerome plus Gibson must not be able to beat North Carolina's two, maybe in the NBA Hansbru must have done Gibson, and in the NCAA Hansbrough's strength is definitely stronger than Gibson, so the biggest pressure on USC tonight comes from the inside.

So tonight, Huang Wei must bring up USC and play their best run-and-gun tactics to increase the chance of winning.

And North Carolina can predict that it will find a way to slow down the pace, and after all, the positional battle has an advantage in the lineup, especially on the inside, and it will definitely play their strongest point Hansbro.

"Beep!"

As the referee's opening whistle blew, the two legendary superstars threw the ball into the air at the same time, and both sides stretched out their hard iron arms at the same time to compete, and the 08-09 NCAA basketball finals officially kicked off.

This is a game and a war, the world is judged by success or failure, and tonight only the real king can stand in the end and win.
