Eagle Country time, March 16th.
The most important basketball tournament of the Eagle Nation University, the NCAA Tournament, had officially begun!
As the No. 1 seed of the Big East, Georgetown University was ranked second in the United States.
The first opponent of the top 64 was Texas A M.
The team from Texas had no ability to resist and was defeated by Georgetown in the first half of the match.
As for Texas A M, Mo Ran only knew that the team would nurture Jordan and Chris Middletown in the future.
As for other impressions?
Sorry, Texas A M was too unpopular.
Iverson and Mo Ran only played the first half of the game.
In total, he contributed 50 points, 25 rebounded, 13 assists, 6 blocked shots, and 3 steals.
Basically, the two of them blew up the entire Texas A M team.
"Our next opponent won't be easy to deal with.”
Although they had successfully advanced to the top 32.
However, the opponents that George Town was about to face were not easy to deal with.
Coach John Thompson spread out the NCAA match schedule."
"George Tech, Allen, you should be familiar with them.”
That's right.
Georgetown's opponent in the Top 32 was the University of California, Texas.
This season was the strongest season in the history of the team.
Their leader was Stephen Marbury, who had played 1v1 with Iverson several times on the streets of New York!
The Top 32 match between Georgetown and George Tech.
It was also regarded as the battle for the strongest back in the 1996s.
"There is bound to be a battle between Stephon Marbury and Allen Iverson!”
Eagle Country, Watson, Verison Center Arena.
The top 32 of the 96 NCAA Tournament was about to begin.
The ESPM commentator sat on the sidelines.""But no one would have thought that this year's battle for the strongest defender would come so early!”
"As far as I know, the battle between Allen and Stephen has never stopped since Locke's Park in 1994.”
The other commentator was from New York.
He was also very familiar with the hottest topic of street basketball in New York in recent years.
In 1994, Marbury, the son of New York, lost to Allen Iverson in a street fight at Rock Park.
In the 1995 Christmas Eve match, Steph Marbury lost to Iverson again in a 3v3.
What was worth mentioning was…
In that 3v3, Mo Ran was also a member of Iverson's team.
Although the two of them met in the NCAA this time, it was the first time they met in their college careers.
However, the feud between Marbury and Iverson had been going on for many years.
"There is no doubt that Allen Iverson will take his team further.”
"And Steph Marbury definitely wants to complete his revenge on Allen Iverson in this round of 32!”
The protagonist of today's battle.
It must be Xiao Ai and Xiao Ma!
However, when the match began, the two commentators vaguely realized that things seemed to be different from what they had imagined.
The jump ball segment.
Mo Ran almost crushed his opponent and took the lead to pass the ball to Allen Iverson.
The moment the AI held the ball, Marbury was already close to him.
Obviously, any school that was going to face Georgetown in the NCAA knockout stages knew that.
Georgetown's first offensive strategy was Mo Ran's giant fast break and Iverson's long pass.
Any team with an outstanding point guard would immediately get their point guard to press for Iverson after the game started.
It was to prevent him from sending out accurate long passes.
Marbury did the same.
Iverson wasn't in a hurry since he couldn't make a long pass.
He skillfully dribbled the ball across the court and arrived at the top of the arc. Iverson quickly changed direction and rushed into the penalty area, sending the ball directly to the right side of the basket.
Mo Ran soared into the sky and blocked the defenders in the air.
Help Georgetown gain the upper hand.
Offense and defense switch, attack round for George Tech.
Marbury faced Iverson's defense, just like he did at Rock Park. He chose to start with a vigorous stride, dash into the paint, and pull the bar in the air!
The scene that was almost the same as Locke's Park appeared again.
Mo Ran flew up behind Iverson. His long arms covered the sky and completely enveloped Marbury's attack space.
If this ball was released, it would definitely be blocked!
Of course, Ma was not stupid. He decisively twisted the ball in the air and gave the ball to the team's center forward who followed up.
The latter took a step forward with the ball in his hand and took off with the momentum, intending to slam dunk.
Then, he was knocked to the ground by Mo Ran, who had jumped twice.
Stephen Marbury felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar.
I seem to have seen this plot somewhere before!
Mo Ran would not give his opponent a chance to catch his breath.
Capturing the opponent and controlling the ball, Mo Ran held the ball himself and rushed to the front!
In the front field.
The two defensive players of George Tech were originally standing in the paint, ready to prevent Mo Ran from entering the penalty area to score.
However, when they saw a 2.10-meter-tall Great Xia beast charging at them without any intention of slowing down, they were shocked.
The two young defenders dodged to the side at the same time.
They didn't want to be killed by the monsters of Great Xia!
"Boom!"
There were no defenders in the penalty area. Mo Ran's three steps became two steps, and his long legs displayed their advantage vividly.
He took two big strides from the three-point line to the free-throw line and took off with a one-armed dunk!
“ＷｏｏｏｏＷ！！”
His dunk ignited the atmosphere of the fans.
The entire Verison Center fell into a sea of jubilation.
In the next round, Stephen Marbury was still not convinced.
After entering the penalty area, the teammate who was in the middle of the ball wanted to assist his teammate in scoring.
To be honest, there was still a large empty seat.
For NCAA-level players, it was a 100% guaranteed goal.
Unless he met Mo Ran!
"Bang!"
The next second after the opponent threw the ball, Mo Ran flew out from the flank and the volleyball cap sent the ball flying to the second-floor stands!
After completing the hat, Mo Ran even waved his finger at the opponent who had been fooled by the hat.
This was the classic celebratory pose of Georgetown's legendary center forward, Dikambe Mutumbo, after he had blocked a shot!
The two commentators looked at each other.
It seemed that the main characters of today's game were not Marbury and Iverson.
Mo Ran was more like the main character!
