Chapter 188: Momentum is like a bamboo
"UCLA is back, Winnie the Pooh's crazy performance"
It was a day in mid-February 2011, after the Super Bowl came to an end, the eyes of the whole country turned to that exciting and crazy March, and there was still half a month before the NCAA ushered in the hottest days of the 2010-2011 season, and this year has extraordinary significance for many teams, Duke, Arizona, Kentucky are among them, and the most eye-catching is UCLA, Winnie the Pooh, The Californian-grown kid will be at the end of his college career to challenge for the championship trophy that all players covet, and there is only one chance for Winnie the Pooh and UCLA to retreat!
And the basketball commentators who didn't look at UCLA before they shut their damn mouths at the end of January, UCLA's boys began to work collectively in the middle of the regular season, sweeping all opponents in the Pacific Division with an unbeatable attitude. And our Winnie the Pooh has averaged 18.8 points, 12.4 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 3.8 steals per game in the past ten games, beating Kyrie Irving's 17.5 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists and 2.1 steals! Successfully won the NCAA No. 1 point guard throne, and Malcolm and Honeycutter's outside firepower support made all the NBA scouts who came to watch the game stunned, such a UCLA obviously made all teams tremble and tremble!
Loyun has received emails from many teams hoping that Loyun will let go of the NCAA championship in the next games and let his pick stall or slip. Because then those teams have a chance to sign him in the 2011 NBA Draft. Of course, those teams offered very generous conditions. In addition to making Loyun a millionaire overnight, the team also promised to build a new team for him after he came to ensure his leadership position in the team, but for these Loyun all chose to ignore and give up the NCAA championship? It would be better to let him give up the NBA draft, and he has always been very disdainful of this kind of unsavory tricks and black-box operations, and he is not the kind of person who loves money, so Luo Yun has only one action for these stupid suggestions, that is, throw them in the trash and delete them directly!
Loyun remembers a quote from the legendary NCAA coach John Wooden. That is, don't give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you! Although it is said that the NCAA championship and entering the NBA are Winnie the Pooh's dreams, the former is obviously more important, and if UCLA can win the championship this year, it will be of great significance, and if it succeeds, it will go down in history forever!
Because this year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of UCLA's immortal Coach John Wooden, it is undoubtedly the most solemn and precious gift to honor the elderly in heaven! Last year, they had a chance to let Coach Wooden see UCLA rise to the top again at the age of 99, but Duke's strength blocked the pace of UCLA's offense, which also disappointed many fans, but this year they seem to have seen the glory return, even if there are still fifteen days to go before March Madness. But UCLA tickets have long been sold out, and they all want to witness the rise of UCLA. Let that glory come back again!
Luo Yun sat on the bench and watched his substitute teammates fighting the court, looking a little anxious, obviously the difficulty of today's game made UCLA, who was used to winning, a little overwhelmed, looking at Derrick Williams calling for wind and rain on the inside, he really wanted to rush up immediately and press the opponent on the bench, but Larsson's decision made them have to sit off the court and do it in a hurry, the University of Arizona, this old rival has a super power forward who can sweep the NCAA, Just like Griffin back then, but this guy isn't that beastly!
However, I want to remind everyone here that Arizona and Arizona State are two different universities, and Black Boy Leonard went to the latter class back then, remember Harden! He's from that university, I hope you don't have to get confused! After all, the team in front of them is completely different from where Leonard is, because they have super inside Derrick Williams! A powerful attacking power forward!
"Haha, who can stop Derek's hook hand, he has scored 15 points, 11 rebounds and 3 blocks today, damn UCLA's interior twin towers can't let go of the opposing offense today!" Barkley laughed when he saw Arizona's inside shot, 56:52, with 8 minutes left in the game, UCLA was already trailing by 4 points, is their winning streak coming to an end?
And Damian on the side secretly raised the middle finger at Barkley, this guy said in a big way on TNT TV a few days ago, saying that Derrick Williams will be the favorite for the top pick, and Kyrie Irving and Winnie the Pooh are just foils for him, because there are many point guards in the NBA league but excellent interior players are not easy to find! However, as soon as his words were broadcast, he was immediately attacked by Duke and UCLA fans. How can that guy who is only 6'7" compare to Winnie the Pooh and Kyrie Irving, Barkley is undoubtedly farting, and in the eyes of many fans, that guy is nothing more than an embroidered pillow! And his free throws are terrible!
However, Damian admires Barkley's courage, this guy dares to come to UCLA to make extra money when he is on the cusp of the storm, and the opponent is Derrick Williams, who he admires, isn't this bastard afraid of being thrown out by UCLA fans after the game? I still hope to kiss the donkey's ass again!
Luo Yun and a group of starters sat on the bench waiting for Larsson to give an order, while the substitutes on the field were fighting fiercely, and many fans didn't understand why Larsson still pressed Winnie the Pooh on the bench at this time? Do you have to wait until Zuihou 5 minutes to let him play? Damn old man, we're not paying to watch a bunch of stupid big guys playing iron, but we're hoping to see Winnie the Pooh on the pitch, all right! There are also many female fans who say that they are actually here to see the handsome guys, as for who it is, there is no need to say more!
The old white man, who was able to pull the hateful man without taunting, finally made a move, and now there were 5 minutes left before the end of the game, Arizona and UCLA were tied at 60:55, and our lads needed 5 minutes to tie or overtake!
When the UCLA players returned to the field, the audience suddenly erupted in an earth-shattering roar, looking at the eye-catching white figure, those California girls who had been dormant for a long time broke out into a scream, directly drowning Damian's words in the crowd!
But our little guy is obviously not surprised by this kind of thing, but Emma Roberts sitting on the sidelines is not so comfortable, knowing that the boy standing on the field belongs to hers, not these big-breasted stinky women!
The served on the baseline, Luo Yun took the ball and slowly dribbled to the front court, and did not make superfluous moves in the face of the interference of the opponent's PG Lamont Jones, but directly hoisted the ball to Malcolm who was inserted from the baseline, this is the tactical arrangement that Larson made for them some time ago, and the effect looks very good after so many games, and Winnie the Pooh's three-point shooting rate has also improved slightly, and he dares to shoot!
Malcolm received the ball, Luo Yun didn't care about Lamont Jones' interference and went directly to the free throw line, and at this time, Gordon Hero also pulled to the outside line to block Luo Yun to break through smoothly, and everything that was solved was just like Larsson's arrangement, Malcolm made a feint outside the left three-point line to trick the opponent's SG Brandon into jumping up and then gave the ball to the nearby, Derrick Williams hurriedly stepped forward to make up for the defense, and was stuck behind the, but at this moment, I saw a white figure suddenly rushing out of the inner line, and there was a small tail dragging behind him! When passing by the, the other party also gave the ball directly to Luo Yun, and at this moment, Malcolm and Honeycut have successfully switched positions!
In fact, the tactics deviated from Larsson's arrangement, according to the original plan, Luo Yun should have received the ball when he pulled to a 45-degree angle outside the three-point line, but at this moment he let the give the ball to him halfway, the reason is naturally the little tail Lamont Jones who was dragging behind him, this guy did not give up the defense after seeing Luo Yun insert the inside line, but followed behind the opponent!
In this case, if they still follow the original method, it obviously has no effect, so Luo Yun temporarily changed his mind, and immediately turned around with the help of the opponent's cover after receiving the pass from the, and for a while the entire Arizona defense suddenly tightened, and all the pressure came towards Luo Yun, but Larson, who was sitting on the field, smiled with relief, it seems that the little guy's Jihua has succeeded!
"It's a pass!" Damian shouted excitedly, only to see that Luo Yun did not choose to attack the basket after successfully attracting the defense, but passed the basketball out of his arm when he stepped into the free throw line, and flew directly into Malcolm's hand not far away!
"Defend!" The Arizona coach looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help shouting loudly, he originally thought that the team he led should be able to end the UCLA winning streak, but when the opponent started to return to the court, he found that it was not an easy task, after hearing the coach's order, Lamont Jones almost at the same time abandoned Luo Yun and reflexively pounced on the outside to disrupt Malcolm's shooting rhythm, but what he didn't expect was that at this time, Honeycarter was suddenly possessed by Michael Rohr, Suddenly appeared in front of him!
At this moment, Malcolm was already fully prepared, only to see him lightly touch the basketball outside the three-point line on the right side, his whole body suddenly lifted, and a standard shooting posture instantly appeared in the sight of the audience, and he threw the ball directly with an earth-shattering shout, setting off a shock!
"Three-pointers!"
Damian and the crowd were able to chant in unison, while the basketball carried a long trajectory, "Whew! "Fell into the net! (To be continued......)
