Although Coach Dave Odom had given some solutions.
But in the end, Duncan calmed down and chose to finish his senior year, fulfill his promise to his mother, and participate in the 1997 draft.
Waiting for a year would not affect his future matchup with Mo Ran in the NBA.
Dave Odom supported all the decisions of his disciple.
The most glorious part of the Wake Forest Devils 'history was the years when Tim Duncan led the team.
Stay for one more year and make a final attempt at the NCAA Championship next year!
Why not?
However, it could make Tim Duncan's heart, which had been silent for many years, restless.
Mo Ran's charm was evident.
" To be honest, although Mo Ran's data is not much different from Tim Duncan's, I think Mo Ran is the winner today.”
"Yes, it seems that the debate over the strongest insider topic of the Pan-96 generation can be put to an end!”
On the evening news on ESPM.
The experts started discussing.
" Mo crushed Marcus Camby head-on. His stats were on par with that of Tim Duncan, or even slightly better. At the same time, he led his team to eliminate Wake Forest.”
"I have achieved my revenge against the demons of Wake Forest!”
"He has already defeated two of the best post players of the Pan-96 generation.”
"Especially the TD-attack!"
"Mo Ran should be the best inside player of the Pan-96 generation. There's no doubt about it!”
Consecutive head-on defeats of Canby Duncan.
Mo Ran would definitely have no problem becoming the best player of the Pan-96 generation.
"Then, with Tim Duncan confirming that he won't be participating in the 1996 draft, will Mo Ran lock in this year's top pick in advance?”
Everyone knew.
In the NBA, big players were always popular in the draft.
Especially in 1996.
The four centers had yet to retire, and Shaquille O'Neal was gradually showing his dominance in the inside game.
He was over 2.10 meters tall and had an explosive performance in the NCAA knockout stage.
Mo Ran wasn't the top scorer?
Then who was it?
"Allen Iverson obviously can't compete with Mo Ran for the first place.”
One of the experts said,"I admit that Alan is absolutely outstanding.”
"If there was only Marcus and Allen in the top scorer topic, I would definitely choose Allen Iverson!”
"But if I were to put Mo Ran and Aren as the top scorer, I would only choose Mo Ran. There's no other choice!”
"I agree with your point of view, buddy. I agree with Mo Ran being the top scorer of the 1996 season!”
Almost all the ESPM experts agreed with this point of view.
Mo Ran was already the most popular pick in the 96th draft!
"Then, the Boston Celtics might choose Mo Ran?”
After talking about the top pick of the 96th class.
Several experts turned their attention to the current NBA record rankings.
The Boston Celtics were visibly in a tight spot, almost locking in the first pick.
Could it be that the Green Army was going to use their second top scorer to pick Mo Ran?
"Our target is Allen Iverson.”
However, the Celtics manager, M.L. Kyle, who was interviewed by the media, decisively threw out a smoke bomb."If we end up with the first pick, the team will only choose between Allen and Stephen.”
Just like in the original timeline, when the Celtics defeated Tim Duncan in 1997, they crazily boasted that Kees Van Horn was Bird II.
The Green Army used Iverson and Marbury as a smokescreen and did not expose their feelings for Mo Ran.
Without a doubt.
This was the idea of Auerbach in red again.
An interesting phenomenon.
Before the semi-finals between Georgetown and Wake Forest began.
The entire Eagle Country was talking about this semi-final match. They were talking about Tim Duncan VS Mo Ran.
However, after the match ended.
The Eagle Country's media did not care about the final match.
It was whether Mo Ran would become the top draft pick and which NBA team Mo Ran would enter as the top draft pick.
It was as if Mo Ran had won a direct conversation with Tim Duncan.
This year's NCAA championship title was even more worth discussing than which team Mo Ran would join as the top draft pick!
Of course, every year, the topic of the NCAA finals would not be low.
At the same time, during the prime time of their own TV shows, ESPN was also promoting the upcoming Kentucky-Georgetown match.
It wasn't just ESPM.
On Great Xia's side, after the semi-finals between George Town and Wake Forest ended, the Central TV Station received a detailed viewership report.
This was the first time in the history of the Central TV Station to broadcast the semi-finals of the NCAA. It had earned the top three viewership ratings of all the Central TV programs that day!
Among sports programs, the viewership ratings for the NCAA semifinals were ranked in the top five in history.
And this was only the NCAA semifinals!
Mo Ran led George Town to the finals.
The viewership ratings for the final of the 1996 NCAA Tournament would definitely soar!
Therefore, out of the importance he placed on this match and Mo Ran, he had no other choice.
Central TV directly sent Old Master Zhang and the very young Su Qun to fly to New York together.
At the venue of the 1996 NCAA Tournament finals, the New York City's Maison Garden, the NCAA Tournament finals, which was the focus of domestic and international attention, would be broadcast live!
CCTV's decision to send reporters to the NCAA venue was supported by David Stern.
The president of the NBA used his connections to secure a spot for CCTV at the garden.
They flew excitedly from Great Xia to New York.
The Great Xia team was immediately led to their commentators 'seats by the NCAA staff. They set up the live broadcast and commentary equipment for the day of the finals.
"Director Zhang, do you think we're benefiting from Mo Ran's help?”
As he tidied up the route, the young Su Qun's eyes flashed: ""If he hadn't made it to the finals, we might not have had the chance to broadcast the NCAA finals live at Mason Garden!”
"That's right."
At the mention of Mo Ran, Old Master Zhang Li's face was filled with a proud smile.
"I also heard that if Mo Ran wins the NCAA Championship this year, he'll be able to lock in the position of the NBA's top draft pick!”
Su Qun's tone was filled with admiration for Mo Ran.
For the basketball players of their generation in Great Xia.
Mo Ran's appearance was like a bright lamp.
His entire career was lit up by him, and it was reasonable for him to worship him.
"He doesn't even need to win the championship to lock onto the top scorer's position!”
Old Master Zhang Li listened to the praises of Mo Ran from the foreign colleagues around him.
He smiled and patted Su Qun's shoulder.""Little Su, quickly pack up and wait for Mo Ran and the others to arrive at New York.”
"We still have to interview him before the finals!”
