On the evening of April 1, 1996, the University of Connecticut won its first championship in franchise history.

Although everyone was prepared before the game, when everyone changed into championship T-shirts and came to the center of the field again, they couldn't help but shout happily with the fans again.

Coach Calhoun is still a little excited, after 10 years of coaching, trying to recruit talented players, and experiencing ups and downs, the team finally won the championship this year!

UConn fans cheered incessantly, and for the youngsters, winning meant lying on the side.

The exuberant energy that has nowhere to vent has finally been released, and many people are even already looking forward to the celebrations when they return to school!

Jim Nantz, who acted as the host of the arena, was quieter in the arena before smiling and asking Coach Calhouun a question:

"Jim, we all know that most of the players on the team were recruited by you, what do you want to say to them at this moment?"

Coach Calhoun adjusted his emotions and then said sincerely:

"I want to thank my teammates, the Connecticut Huskies are a big family!"

"Thanks to Ray, I'm very demanding of him, but he's always meticulous in completing them."

"He's independent, responsible, proud, and humble, and you can't imagine he's a junior, and he's never missed a single training session in his three years at Connecticut!"

"It's unimaginable, and I learned so many new things from him!"

Ray Allen on the side lifted the brim of his hat and smiled on his face, his hard work paid off!

The audience burst into applause and cheers resumed, and Coach Calhoun paused before speaking again:

"Of course, I would also like to thank Lee, who could have chosen to be closer to home at New Mexico State, and thanks to his trust, without whom we wouldn't be here this year."

"Lee is special, the jump shot is not a God-given talent, many people only see his accurate shooting, but they can't see the effort behind it!"

"Don't change yourself for anyone, you will succeed, God will favor hard-working children, and Connecticut will always be your home!"

Coach Calhoun put his arm around Lee-woo, and the good old man has thought more than once about what would happen if no one on the bench this year had stepped up.

Last year, he stopped in the quarterfinals and won the championship this year, and the biggest difference is that Li You's playing time has increased.

Coach Calhoun knew that the team could win the championship and Lee Woo also played a huge role!

The media all around focused their cumbersome cameras at Li You.

Among the crowd of blacks and whites, Lee Woo is indeed striking.

With a smile on his face, Li You just smiled and patted the head coach's shoulder, when he chose Connecticut, he was mainly to hug his thighs...

Only he understands this in his heart, he needs to show himself on a higher stage, and he also needs a professional agency that can help him enter the NBA.

Coach Calhoun thanked all the players one by one, and almost all of the youngsters were recruited by him, and at the end of the day, there was a proud expression on his face.

UConn fans in the audience only wanted to see the team win the trophy at this time, and after thanking him, Coach Calhoun lifted the golden spherical trophy in front of him with some excitement.

In addition to the NCAA logo, the trophy also bears the words "National Champions."

Dragging the wooden square base, Coach Calhoun shouted excitedly, and Li You and his teammates jumped up and raised their hands to cheer.

The golden ribbon floated above the arena, and in the audience, the fans of the University of Kentucky showed envious eyes, and the sixth championship in team history finally came to naught...

It's been a harvest year for Ray Allen.

The Final Four MOP went directly to him, and with the addition of the NCAA All-American Championship Team, Great East Conference Player of the Year, and Great East Conference All-Star Team, he won almost every honor he could have received in college.

Li You suffered a little in honor, and even if Iverson pulled his grades, he still suffered for a while...

The Second Team of the Great East Conference and the All-NBA All-American Championship Team are his achievements this season!

The championship team did get better treatment, and the big man Knight was also selected to the All-Star team.

Coupled with Antoine Walker of the University of Kentucky and Marcus Camby of the University of Massachusetts, there is a high probability that all five of the five players on this year's All-NBA team will make it to the NBA.

Perhaps due to the lack of entertainment, UConn fans continued to party after leaving the arena, and the fans watching the game at the bar also joined in the fun, and the scene was chaotic.

Without waiting for the security personnel to disperse the crowd, the University of Kentucky fans who were in a bad mood began to use civilized language again, and under the "Fack", the two sides quickly twisted into a mess...

With shouts, cheers, and shouts from security personnel constantly ringing outside the stadium, tonight will be a sleepless night for young people who like to be lively.

The University of Connecticut has several campuses not together, and Coach Calhoun has to discuss with the school where to celebrate the first leg when he returns to the hotel...

Li You and his teammates took advantage of this opportunity to binge drink again, although he is not yet of the age to legally buy alcohol, but there are a few seniors here, which is not a problem.

Only returned to the room at two o'clock in the morning, Li You hurriedly took a shower, and after winning the championship, he was able to draw talent again!

Lying on the bed, Li You couldn't help but think of the experience of living in New Mexico,

At that time, he beat up children of the same age, but the talent he got was mediocre, because he was already the strongest among his peers.

chose Connecticut, Li You for this moment.

Looking at the disc on the simple panel, when Li You was still stunned, he had already received a hint:

"[Ray Allen's excellent explosiveness]"

In the blink of an eye, Li You breathed a sigh of relief, as he expected, the talents he extracted were all to make up for his shortcomings.

So far, only the [Marksman] talent has been activated by him after two and a half years of special practice.

Thinking of the conditions for extracting talents, Li You couldn't help but complain secretly:

"If this is the time for the fish belly team to catch up with the swing frenzy, it will be a waste of at least a year..."

On April 2, the Connecticut people boarded the bus for the return trip.

The journey from East Rutherford in New Jersey to Hartford in Connecticut is about 181 kilometers and takes at least three and a half hours by bus.

Li You is used to this kind of life, and when he gets in the car, he reads the newspaper, and unlike his babbling teammates, he wants to get information about this era.

Ray Allen, who was next to him, also received news from Mark Battlestein in the morning, and at this year's draft, another high school student appeared:

"It's crazy, high school students playing in the NBA, and if it's not restricted, it's going to have a huge impact on the NCAA!"

Ray Allen seems old-school a lot of the time, just as he prefers to watch footage of Larry Bird's game with Magic Johnson, and he's a staunch college basketball supporter.

The NCAA does not allow players to have any economic activities, while the NBA waving money shouts at talented teenagers:

"Come to the bowl!"

People from the bottom need American knives more, college life is good, and they can hone their tactical awareness, but in front of American knives, these conditions are not important.

For this year's draft, the memories in Li You's mind only stay on a few people:

"Bet or not, high school players can succeed."

Ray Allen immediately shook his head, betting that he hadn't won in the past two years:

"God is always on your side, I trust your instincts!"
