As Yun Lie had expected, the University of Oklahoman eliminated Georgetown University and met up with Davidson College in the finals.
As for their core, Blake Griffin, he was a player that all the players in 2009 could not avoid. Before the start of March Madness, Blake Griffin had already been confirmed as the top draft pick of 2009 by all the draft forecast websites. However, with Yun Lie's performance in March Madness, Blake Griffin's status as the top draft pick received a huge blow. The match against the University of Okla would not only determine the championship, but it would also determine the draft's top pick.
Up until now, the topic of the duel between the two was very hot. Everyone was discussing who was stronger. Due to the NCAA division, this was the first time the two teams had played against each other. The first time the two of them fought was on the stage of the finals. This topic ignited the Internet.
"White demon beast versus yellow demon beast, who will win?"
" Who is the strongest rookie of the 2009 class?" The internet was filled with discussions.
…………
Soon, the NCAA finals were held at the New York Knicks 'home stadium, the Garden. After a period of warm-up, spectators from all over the United States gathered here to enjoy this basketball event.
TNT TV station sent Barkley and Smith to the scene to explain, and even arranged for a live broadcast across the United States. Due to the popularity of the finals, the NBA did not arrange a game today. There were many star players and all kinds of scouts in the audience.
Kobe of the Los Angeles Clippers, James of the Cavaliers, Dwyane Wade of the Heat, and other stars were all sitting on the sidelines, wanting to see how the future stars of the league would fare.
After a while, as the host finished his introduction, both sides began to jump ball. Davidson College's jump ball was a success. They got the ball first. After Yun Lie received the ball, he passed it to Curry. Curry saw that the defender was a step away from him and immediately shot a three-pointer, hitting the basket. Unfortunately, Curry stepped on the three-point line when he jumped, so it was a two-pointer.
On the other side, Blake Griffin immediately counterattacked and pulled away from Yun Lie through a pick-and-roll. Just as Yun Lie was about to jump and block, he faked a move to pass Yun Lie and then used a small hook to score the ball.
Yun Lie looked at Blake Griffin's style of play and thought to himself," He was worthy of being the future spokesperson of the City of Sky Connection. In addition to Paul's transfer, his business was indeed excellent.
Unfortunately, his arm span was too short, and he gradually lost himself in the small ball era. Later, after he was injured by the Raptors, he no longer had the same physical fitness as before. As a result, Blake Griffin gradually became a nobody. Of course, Blake Griffin was still a real White Demon Beast.
Back in the match, Yun Lie actively responded. He blocked the University of Okla Center, Joey Siddarth, in the paint and asked Curry for the ball. After receiving the ball, Yun Lie used Fantasy Steps to block Joey Siddarth. He jumped and dunked. After Yun Lie jumped, Joey Siddarth unwisely slapped Yun Lie's hand.
"Beep!" The referee whistled. Not only did Yun Lie block Joey Seedorf, but he also made it 2 1.
"Good heavens, the opening is a slam dunk. Yun Lie really knows what we want to see. When two talented monsters meet, naturally there will be a slam dunk.”Barkley said.
After Yun Lie landed on the ground, he made a free throw.
After that, the University of Oklahoman had the ball. After the University of Oklahoman point guard, Robert, received the ball, he began to push toward the halfcourt. When he reached the three-point line, he saw Curry coming up to defend and signaled his teammates to open the play.
Robert was a very muscular point guard. His overall style was similar to Westbrook's. When he saw that Curry was defending him, he immediately chose to force Curry. He did a scissors step on the outside and suddenly accelerated to break through Curry. The inside was now empty. Robert had already thought of the cheers from the audience after he dunked.
Just as Robert was about to jump for a dunk, Yun Lie did a reverse run to pull away from Blake Griffin. He jumped behind Robert and ruthlessly nailed the ball to the basket. The huge impact knocked Robert out of the end line and he collapsed to the ground. Yun Lie immediately launched a fast attack and easily dunked the ball.
"Robert…poor kid! However, he could not be blamed for this shot. If Griffin had not missed Yun Lie, it would have been a good shot.”Barkley looked at Robert's miserable face and said with pity.
In the next round, as Curry missed a three-pointer, Joey Seedorf pushed the rebound to Griffin, who quickly pushed forward. Yun Lie also followed closely from the side. Just as Griffin was about to dunk, Yun Lie's fingertips touched the basketball and it flew out. Griffin's dunk missed.
It couldn't be helped. Not only was Yun Lie's physical fitness outstanding, but his wingspan was also outstanding. In comparison, Griffin was crying as he looked at his Tyrannosaurus Rex wingspan.
After the ball flew out, it was picked up by Curry, who had just returned to defend. Curry waited at the three-point line for Yun Lie to get into position. He pulled the ball out of the three-point line through Yun Lie's pick-and-roll and took away two defenders. Yun Lie took the opportunity to follow up. When he was near the free-throw line, Curry passed the ball to Yun Lie. Yun Lie threw the ball and scored.
In the next round, the two sides fought back and forth. The score was also fixed at 30:30.
Three minutes before the end of the first half, an accident happened. Casby stepped on Joey Seedorf's foot when he landed after dunking and immediately fell to the ground in pain.
Beep. The match was suspended. Yun Lie immediately went over to check on Casby's injury. Coach Alvin was worried. He was not only worried about Casby's injury, but also about the upcoming performance of Davidson Academy.
In the end, after Kasby was confirmed by the team doctor to have sprained his ankle, the game continued. After the referee's review, he gave Joey Seedorf a technical foul. The University of Okla did not react much. After all, Davidson lost his starting center. Even if he lost a technical foul, it was worth it.
Yun Lie executed two free throws and hit both of them. In the next round, as Coach Alvin had expected, they lost the defense inside the lane. Griffin repeatedly dunked, and Davidson College didn't know what to do on the offensive side.
At this moment, Yun Lie began to ask for the ball inside. He decided to rely on his own ability to support the final attack of the first half. Yun Lie held the ball in the paint. Griffin defended him. Yun Lie squeezed in and chose to make a fadeaway jump shot. Whoosh. The basketball hit the air.
The audience immediately began to seethe. Yun Lie's actions were exactly the same as Kobe's. The caster also turned the camera to Kobe.
When Kobe saw the ball, he was a little shocked. This kid's movements were really good. What Yun Lie didn't know was that Kobe had his eyes on him after he reversed the situation at the University of Morris. He had actively recommended him to the management, wanting to bring Yun Lie to Angel City.
………………
In the last few minutes of the first half, the University of Okla blossomed a lot. Yun Lie relied on his own strong play inside the lane to maintain the score at 45:42.
Beep--The score of 56 was temporarily behind the University of Okla.
During the halftime interval, Coach Alvin said to all the players,"" Children, we've already done a lot to get to where we are today. From the state championship to the NCAA finals, you've achieved what many people couldn't. I'm proud of you. "Now, we have one last mission. That's our mission to end the season and have a good fight with the University of Okla. Are you ready?”Coach Alvin asked.
" We're ready, sir," the Davidson Academy players shouted in unison.
" Okay, now that Casby is injured, let's use tactic number two," Coach Alvin said to his players.
Tactic No. 2 was the five small tactics used to eliminate UCT.
……
Soon, the second half began, and the Davidson Academy boys began their performance. After the ball moved near the three-point line, the Davidson Academy players began to run. The ball was passed to Curry's hands by the players. Curry received the ball, adjusted it, and made a three-pointer.
After the University of Oklahoman served, the ball went into Griffin's hands. Under Yun Lie's defense, Griffin missed his layup. Yun Lie took the rebound. After taking the rebound, Yun Lie saw Curry, who had already run to the three-point line. He made a long pass and assisted Curry to score another three-pointer. Davidson College turned the score around.
When the coach of the Oklahomans saw the change in the formation of Davidson College, he called several timeouts. However, regardless of whether they focused on the defense or other defensive methods, they could not change the decline on the field. They could only watch as Davidson College continued to increase the score. The match gradually lost its suspense.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are now watching the 2008- 2009 NCAA finals. With the change in the second half of Davidson College, the game has lost its suspense.”Smith said.
…………
There were 15 seconds left before the game. Davidson College was assured of their last chance to attack. They dribbled the ball outside the three-point line and waited for the whistle to blow.
" Beep! Game over!" The score was fixed at 93-86. Davidson College defeated the University of Oklahoman and picked up the 2008-2009 NCAA finals trophy!
" We are the champions!!!" Yun Lie shouted and hugged Ku Li tightly.
The Davidson Academy players hugged each other to celebrate this hard-won moment. Davidson Academy won their first championship against the team. He had left his name in the history of the NCAA.
Coach Alvin sat on the substitutes 'bench, silently lighting a cigar and watching his disciples cheer on the field.
In the stands, Kobe sent the video of the game to the general manager of the Los Angeles Clippers, Kupchak, and the head coach, Zen Master. He strongly recommended that they win Yun Lie in the draft.
……
After a while, the field was gradually filled with ribbons, and the red color belonging to Davidson College enveloped the garden. It was a perfect ending to March Madness.
