At the NCAA finals.
Before the start of the game, the stadium was already full and the atmosphere was bursting. The fans of both teams were cheering for the home team, but they also wanted to change the opponent's momentum. The entire basketball stadium was deafening with waves of cheers.
The mainstream media had already hyped up the game and made it the most popular game in this year's crazy March.
"Ewing vs Olajuwon, who is the best center in the NCAA?”
"Between Georgetown University and Houston University, who will be the final winner?”
Voices and reports like this were endless.
In the 1970s and 1980s, when the center player dominated the world, the fight between Patrick Ewing and Hakeem Olajuwon, the two super players inside the line, was full of interesting points.
Many scouts and managers from NBA teams had already infiltrated the fan seats in the stadium.
Even though Ewing had yet to announce whether he would participate in this year's draft, they had enough patience to wait.
The current mainstream opinion was that once Ewing announced his candidacy, there was no doubt that he would be the top pick. Olajuwon would not be able to do so either.
Unless the Houston Rockets got the first pick.
There was no other reason than that You Yin's influence at that time was stronger and unrivaled.
Moreover, he led Georgetown University to the NCAA finals three times, which was better than Olajuwon.
Although he lost the championship in the first year because of North America and Jordan.
However, in the single-round elimination system of the NCAA Tournament, it was simply unbelievable that Ewing could do this.
As for Ewing suffering from a knee injury and not having Olajuwon's achievements at his peak, that was in the future.
And now, not only was Ewing the top pick, but the draft reports given by the scouts were also very scary.
"Chamberlain's offense, Russell's defense!”
Colleagues, this season, both teams were in their third year.
In terms of statistics, Olajuwon had an average of 16.8 points, 13.5 rebounding, 5.6 blocked shots, and a 67.5% field goal percentage, leading the University of Houston to a 32 - 5 record.
On behalf of Georgetown University, Ewing had an average of 16.4 points, 10.0 rebounding, 3.6 blocked shots, and a field goal percentage of 66%. Georgetown University had 34 wins and 3 losses.
Olajuwon had the advantage in terms of data, but Ewing had the advantage in terms of record.
Once he won the championship this year, Ewing's limelight would definitely be unstoppable, completely overshadowing Olajuwon and Jordan.
In fact, the mainstream media believed that Georgetown University had a high chance of winning the championship.
It was because their lineup was stronger, and their lineup crushed the University of Houston.
In addition to the star player, Ewing, there were also Reggie Williams, David Wingate, and Michael Jackson.
Wow, even the king of pop, MJ, was a teammate. How could Georgetown University lose?
Of course, this was just a joke. MJ was a basketball player, not a singer.
Together with Georgetown University, they had just eliminated the University of Kent, which had the twin towers of Sam Bowie (who beat Jordan and was selected by the Blazers as the second-best center) and Melvin Tupin (this year's No. 6).
Ewing proved himself in this game. 53. Led the team to turn the tables and win despite being 13 points behind.
Georgetown University's tenacity in this game and their strong performance at the critical moment made it so that no one was optimistic about the University of Houston, which only had Olajuwon to support them after Drexler graduated.
As expected, Georgetown University had an easy time in this match. It was even easier than people thought.
George Town took the lead with 32 minutes left in the game and never trailed again until the last ten minutes of the second half.
Ewing and his teammates relied on their overall strength to suppress the University of Houston with a ten-point lead.
In the matchup between the two centers, although Ewing's score was not as good as Olajuwon's, he was very good at limiting the latter. He pushed the opponent away from the basket and kept him outside the most comfortable range.
Looking at the difference of 65:49, the fans on both sides had different reactions.
"That's good. The Houstonians aren't a match for them at all.”
"We're going to win the championship, we're going to win the championship!”
"Patrick, teach the Houstonians a lesson.”
The more the Georgetown University fans watched, the happier they became. Some of them even started dancing.
In contrast, the University of Houston fans were like spent arrows. Although they were still cheering for the home team, their faces were already filled with frustration.
"The University of Houston is about to give up. Hakeem can't find a way to win at all.”
"Yes, Patrick might be able to realize his dream of winning the championship.”
"After he wins the championship, it should be the time for him to announce his participation in the draft.”
"Let's wait and see."
The managers and scouts of the major NBA teams hidden in the audience also thought that the University of Houston could not cause any big waves. The situation was very clear.
Ewing was only 10 minutes away from his first NCAA championship trophy.
In the next three to four minutes, the game also confirmed their words.
No matter how the University of Houston's coach, Guy Lewis, deployed his troops, they were unable to cross the huge gap.
In the 34th minute of the game, he called for a pause. He frowned and looked at the yellow-skinned player at the end of the substitutes 'bench.
He thought for a moment and waved at the other party." Liang, get ready to go onstage.”
At this time, Lewis had already pinned his only hope of turning the tables on the water dispenser players who had not been sent to the field to see if they could bring a surprise.
“OK！boss！”
The yellow-skinned player walked up to Lewis and agreed calmly. At the same time, he took off his uniform and revealed the number 13 on his back.
