The opponent has an orthodox center, Varik can't reach the No. 5 position, and Lehi doesn't have to switch identities this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He and McNamara led Syracuse University's backcourt to full bloom, using mid-range shooting to keep the situation firmly in control throughout the game.

At 83:71, Syracuse University won the first win safely, McNamara scored 37 points, allowing Lehi to score 20 points and assist double-doubles.

On March 20th, the battle for the Sweet Sixteen was ushered in.

At Syracuse University, Lehi is not alone in his NBA dreams, and they are all eager for more opportunities to perform.

Their opponent is the University of Maryland, a team that plays somewhat similarly to them.

"With you, we're going to win." Xia Weiliang waved his little fist to cheer for Li Hai.

After the two confirmed their relationship, Lehi's life had another sweetness in addition to basketball.

At the beginning of the game, both sides were very intense, and McNamara's instability reappeared, and how to throw and how to have in the last game, this time it became a blacksmith.

However, Varik did not have a strong opponent on the inside and was active again.

The University of Maryland has a lot of scoring points, most of which are outside shots, and can only rely on the team's overall defense, at this time, Lehi's role on the defensive end cannot be fully played, and he can only try to help the team maintain stable firepower on the offensive end.

"Believe in your teammates and be brave when you are open." Coach Boihan stood on the sidelines, still calm and didn't talk much in the face of the score.

At the end of the first half, the two sides were tied at 36:36.

In the second half, the University of Maryland strengthened its defense against the hotter Varik, causing Varik's shooting percentage to begin to decline.

Lehi knew it was time for him to step up.

Defending him, Jamal Smith was physically strong and pressed close to him, and Lehi leaned on the opponent at the top of the arc to receive the ball, then turned to face the basket with a simple tentative step, relying on speed and power to the opponent's side.

Jamal Smith pulled without hesitation, and the referee's whistle blew.

"I know you have a hand, but I won't let you pass, you won't get any points today." He whispered in Lehi's ear.

After serving, Li Hai received the ball on the sideline, and it was a simple feint, relying on the advantage of his body to break the opponent over, but he didn't expect the University of Maryland's inside player to rush over and foul him again.

The opponent actually used foul tactics against him, and Lehi was not annoyed, but tore open the opponent's defense again and again.

By this time, he will have enough stamina to support this tough style of play.

The free throw rules in the NCAA are a little different from those in the NBA, when a team accumulates 7 common fouls in the half, the opponent will get a "1+1" free throw opportunity for each foul, that is, if the first free throw is scored, it will get another free throw opportunity.

Many college players do not have very solid basic skills, and it is likely that they will not score the first goal, and this attack will become similar to a mistake.

And free throws don't stop until the last two minutes of an NCAA game, so many teams use these rules to develop their tactics.

The University of Maryland's current tactic is obvious, which is to prevent Lehi from having a good chance to make a good move.

Soon, Lehi was standing at the free-throw line, and behind the hoop the University of Maryland crowd made various moves in an attempt to interfere with his free throws.

These tricks may be useful for a lot of players, but not Lehi.

His daily shooting practice has kept his free throw percentage at an extremely high level.

The first penalty was a solid hit.

The second penalty was still a steady hit, without giving the opponent any chance to take advantage.

The commentator complained: "Well, the No. 25 of Syracuse University is Chinese, they seem to be good at this, and big men like Yao Ming are also accurate in their free throws." ”

It wasn't just Syracuse University that was affected by the foul's constant interruption of the game, but when it was the University of Maryland's turn to attack, their hands became a little troublesome.

Syracuse University played a new trick, with Craig Firth mentioning the high post and Lehi standing in the low post to ask for the ball, followed by a textbook low post back-to-back single, then turning and leaning back to hit.

After Lehi stepped up, the game gradually changed from scorching to Syracuse University taking the lead.

In the final moments, he was in complete control of the game.

At 79:70, Lehi's performance was impeccable.

After the game, he was interviewed by reporters, and the blonde-haired female reporter deliberately asked after complimenting: "Which do you think is stronger this year's Orange People or last year's Orange People?" ”

This is a problem with a trap, if Lehi says that this year's team is strong, the other party will question whether he is better than Anthony, and if he says that last year's team is strong, it will definitely hit the team's confidence.

Lehi smiled honestly at the camera, "All I know is that we won the NCAA championship last year, and this year, we will still win the championship." ”

Last year, he had the confidence to shout that he won the championship because he knew history, and this year he dared to shout that he won the championship because of his fearless courage and the confidence he gained from hard work.

Even if he is labeled as a wild talker, he doesn't care, if he doesn't even dare to think about it, how can he do his best, he just wants to win, he just wants to win.

On March 25, the third game of the final stage, their opponent was the University of Alabama.

After the victory over the University of Maryland, the content of Lehi's interview appeared in the newspapers, and the remarks of winning the championship were considered by many to be self-defeating, and when he came on the court, Lehi felt boos for the first time.

"Yellow Skin, go back, this is not the place for you to go wild."

"You'll be defeated in a moment, and the University of Alabama will win."

Compared with the opposing fans, the fan support of Syracuse University is a little quieter, and Lehi is not American, which makes some fans feel less belonging.

McNamara was angry and had to scold the crowd, even if he wasn't very good with Lehi, but on the court, they were close teammates who fought side by side.

Lehi smiled and stopped McNamara, he could tell where the blood should be used, "Win the victory, and they will shut up." ”

The game started at the referee's whistle, and when Lehi received the basketball, the University of Alabama's number one killer, Kennedy Winston, was already standing in front of him.

"Syracuse boy, I don't know which team will win the championship, but it's certainly not you, because I'm going to stop you here."

"Yes, then you have to stop me first."

Lehi's body shook like a pendulum, and Kennedy Winston felt like a man had reached his side.

"How is it possible, so fast." When he turned his head, he saw only a figure flying towards the basket.
