Hearing the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, the huge sound in the stadium of 72,000 people made Li Ze a little excited.

Taking a deep breath and meditating in his heart that I am the boss, Li Ze entered the court with an indifferent face.

When the live DJ called out Lee's name, the UCLA fans began cheering loudly.

For a player who had a strong performance last year and has also played impressively in this year's tournament, supporters will certainly not be stingy with their voices.

Li Ze has a lot of fans, most of them are female fans, he looks sunny and handsome, his facial features are three-dimensional, and his figure is so good that it explodes, many girls are greedy for his body.

Li Ze and his teammates high-fived one by one, and when the fancy opening song on Americaka's side was finished, Ben finally began to tell his teammates.

"Let's take a look at the starting lists of both sides, and sure enough, the interior players on the UCLA side have not changed, and it seems that UConn is going to take the lead!"

Smith saw the start and started to zoom in directly.

"You should see the UCLA backcourt combination, with Collison and Holiday defending, I don't think Price is going to do a good job of organizing the team's offense, he's going to be defended."

Reggie Miller went toe-to-toe.

With the mouth cannon of the on-site commentator, the game officially began.

"Jumping ball without suspense, haha, Tabit is so high, I feel like I see Yao." Smith began to brag about the star player.

"Height doesn't get you to win games, basketball needs to put the ball in the hoop." Reggie Miller fought back again.

"Very simple tactics at UConn, Tabit is going to be in place, wow, easy layup, I don't think he's disturbed at all!"

Smith exclaimed again, giving Taby a thumbs up.

"UCLA's defense isn't in place, they shouldn't have let the big man get to that deep to catch the ball!" Reggie Miller's review hit the nail on the head.

Li Ze also noticed this, and his interior teammate was too nervous against Tabit, which led to a defensive failure this time and was easily scored.

The UConn cheering group was cheering for their big guys!

Li Ze gave Collison a gesture, signaling to play a regular Spanish blocking and pick-and-roll tactic, 35 seconds of offensive time, they don't need to rush, a good start is conducive to the performance of teammates.

When it comes to the knockout round, the physical confrontation has escalated, and if you lose, you go home, and no one wants to be a stepping stone for the other party.

Li Ze began to use the inside tool man's off-ball cover to bomb outside, the quality of the cover was not high, and there was no direct vacancy after receiving the ball outside the three-point line.

Lower the center of gravity, break through with the ball in his left hand, attract a defender and pass the ball to Holiday who then dribbles and hands it to Collison.

At the No. 5 position, Tabit did not choose to go out, but squatted to defend, which gave Collison a chance after the pick-and-roll.

Without hesitation, the three-point shot went straight to the shot.

"Bang...", the backcourt rebound was directly collected by Thabit.

"It's a great outside opportunity, Tabit is in the basket, and UCLA's outside can attack that." Reggie Miller said with some regret.

UConn's tactics are much simpler, if Tabit is successful, give the ball directly, and if it doesn't work, start blocking.

Price held the ball and Thabit came to block it, which was not of high quality, but also managed to delay Collisson's defense.

Taking advantage of the player's rotation not in place, he made a mid-range jumper and scored 2 points.

The young defender still has a few brushes, Collison gestures to his question, and Li Ze clapps his hands to cheer up his teammates.

The support group at the University of Connecticut had a warm atmosphere, and all kinds of shouts came and went, and it is estimated that they bought a lot...

Collison motioned for his teammates to continue the same tactic, this time with an opportunity after Holiday blocked it.

But after hesitating, he chose to break through with the ball, and was forced to stop the ball in the face of the tall Tabit.

Li Ze hurriedly took the ball, leaned on the defender, accelerated the dribble, and stopped in the middle distance, relying on his height and long arms, ignoring interference.

"Brush...", hollow into the net, scored the first point for UCLA.

UCLA supporters in the stadium began to cheer, and the team had a rough start, but they were happy as soon as they scored.

"Lee's nice mid-range, shooting position is a bit like Michael, man, what do you think?" Smith took the opportunity to give Reggie Miller a lift.

"There's still a difference, I think it's more like me, UCLA's tactics didn't work out, and you can see that the lads are a little nervous."

Reggie Miller watched the game with all his attention.

Tabit was on top again, hanging up with the post player, putting the ball in and getting a free throw.

The free throw didn't go in, Li Ze struggled to protect the rebound, fortunately this big man's skills were very rough, otherwise the free throw might kill the game.

Collison motioned to his teammates to speed up the offensive tempo, and after blocking and dismantling, he accelerated directly to break through Tabit.

"Smack...", he didn't want to dodge, and Thabit relied on his height advantage to successfully defend against this attack.

Price accelerated with the ball, switched offense and defense, and made a one-stop layup, and UConn scored another 2-pointer.

Coach Ben looked at the situation on the court and was a little anxious, unable to score, and was rushed by the opponent to grab the rebound, and the team's offense was limited to the position.

It's a bit bad that you can't play a quick transition offense.

Li Ze knows that the team needs to score first now and let his teammates adjust to the situation on the field.

Through the off-ball cover of the interior player, Collison found Li Ze, slipped to the baseline and made a backhand layup, dodging the defense and scoring the ball.

"Excellent off-ball movement, Collison is a great pass, and UCLA needs that kind of offense." Reggie Miller's bragging moment.

Unfortunately, UConn then started their pick-and-roll tactics again, scoring easily.

UCLA's offense was clattering, and the backcourt rebounds were also snatched up by Thabit, allowing the opponent to get up directly and play 8-0.

At 7 minutes and 36 seconds in the first half, Coach Ben called a timeout, and the old man felt that he was a little late in the timeout, and he lost rebounds in a row, which hurt the team too much.

"Rebounding, rebounding, we've got to protect the rebounding, everybody's got to be involved, Collisson, Holiday to get the offense up to speed! Off-ball cover needs to be in place, Kayce, be resolute! Get out the energy! ”

Ben began to roar to cheer up the players, in fact, everyone has done their best to rebound, the team's bench interior players are limited, but rotation is necessary, and the main interior line must maintain the same as Thabit.

It's a pity that there is indeed a gap in the internal strength of the two sides.

Li Ze encouraged his teammates, "Oppress their ball carriers, don't let them catch the ball comfortably, Holiday show your skills, let go of the brothers!" ”

Holiday patted his chest, indicating that he had begun to adjust to the cacophony of atmosphere.

After the timeout, UCLA's perimeter began to increase the pressure on the ball carrier while increasing the tempo of their own offense.

Offensive and defensive switching, Li Ze received the ball outside the three-point line, and without hesitation, he shot directly.

"Brush...", the ball hollows into the net, and 3 points are credited.

Then the physical contact between the two sides began to increase, the number of free throws also arrived, and they frequently stood on the free throw line, you came and went, and UCLA closed the score.

With 28 seconds left in the first half, Coach Ben signaled for the whole court to press.

Holiday desperately pressed Plath, who was holding the ball, just after half of the time Price made a mistake and was stealed directly face-to-face, and after the steal, Holiday hit the opponent's basket directly, and the slow Thabit just returned to defense.

Li Ze also began to speed up at this time, and he knew that as long as he ran in place, Holiday would come over.

UCLA's support team has already cheered, and the situation of playing more and less will be able to narrow the gap again.

Holiday hit the ground and passed the ball as he went, and Li Ze took a step forward from the free throw line to receive the ball, stepped on his feet and jumped straight to Tabit.

Tabit jumped up and blocked it head-on, and after the two sides collided, Li Ze's left arm in the air dodged the palm of his hand, and he buckled with one arm!

"Bang..."Li Ze beat his chest and roared after he landed! At the same time, I felt a chill in my head.

"Crazy slam, God, Lee slammed Tabit!" Smith shouted directly in the commentary seat!

The whole gymnasium is directly frying! Everyone shouted excitedly.

At this time, the first half ended, 40-36, UCLA temporarily fell behind, but the second half of the game was destined to be exciting...
