0068: [Bruce, come on, you must win]
Beep!
The whistle sounded, and the final battle began.
After the restart, the UCL Bruins showed a completely different playing style than before.
As Reggie Miller said, their hearts calmed down. Jordan Farmar brought the ball to the frontcourt and no longer had his own way. Instead, he handed the basketball to Bias, who was in the upper position. Bias, as a space center,
Not only can he shoot, but he also has good coordination skills.
From a high position, he directed the players to run patiently.
When Afflalo used reverse running to escape Thomson's defense, he immediately passed the basketball in. Afflalo received the basketball and quickly attacked the basket.
However, just when he jumped up and prepared to dunk, Thomson, who was thrown behind him, gritted his teeth and chased after him, and quickly jumped up from behind him, forcing Afflalo to pull the ball out of the air.
Come down.
This vicious foul sent Afflalo to the free throw line.
It also made the gentle Thomson beat his chest fiercely. This white forward who hopes to become a lawyer in the future is like a savage coming out of the jungle at this moment.
As Li Zhen said, he doesn't want to leave any regrets in his college career now.
As a player who has absolutely no chance of entering the professional basketball world, now is his most glorious moment.
Therefore, he is doing his best to defend his right to brag with a glass of wine in the years to come!
boom!
Afflalo, whose physical fitness was declining rapidly, missed the free throw, and he lost the right to take the second free throw. Since the second half, Stanford had only committed 8 fouls. After they fouled, the UCL Bruins could only take one plus one free throws.
, has not yet reached the bottom line of two consecutive free throws after 10 fouls.
When Li Zhen brought the basketball to the frontcourt, it was Afflalo who came up to defend.
His entangled defense took Li Zhen nearly 10 seconds to get rid of... This is also due to the NCAA league's 35-second attack time rule. If in the NBA, the point guard needs 10 seconds to get rid of the defender, it will definitely lead to
Disaster consequences.
This also gave Li Zhen a higher desire for explosive power, agility and coordination.
Obviously he has mastered dribbling to the extreme, but lacking these talents, he can only avoid the defense in a few inches, but he cannot directly obliterate the defense with every move like Iverson did!
And when Bruce Lee struggled to get rid of Afflalo, he quickly penetrated into the penalty area. Bias and Afflalo immediately formed a tight double-team... and surrounded him so tightly that even mosquitoes could not escape.
However, just when everyone thought Li Zhen would be forced to make a mistake this time, Bruce Lee suddenly made a shooting motion upwards. Bias subconsciously raised his hands, and the moment he raised his hands, Li Zhen quickly
Collecting the ball and quickly throwing it out with his left hand...the basketball was thrown directly from Baias's waist, and showed an amazing elegant arc.
This is very similar to the flying trajectory of a quick assist on the football field.
What's even more astonishing is that the basketball passed directly to the bottom corner after a beautiful arc, and Thomson, who got rid of Jordan Farmar's tracking defense, arrived at the right time: everything fit perfectly as if calculated by a computer program.
Thomson caught the basketball and shot it easily!
Whoosh!
Three point hit.
76:78!
Only 2 points left.
And as...the game time entered the countdown to 1 minute and 56 seconds, the timer stopped after the goal, which meant that Stanford had more offensive opportunities. (The NCAA is different from the NBA. The goal is scored 2 minutes before the end of the game.
The ball does not stop the clock and the time keeps running. The clock will not stop until the countdown reaches 2 minutes.)
The Great Western Forum Arena could not suppress some cheers.
I have to say, this is a stumbling, but extremely beautiful collaboration.
"Bruce Lee's physical fitness is really mediocre. But he is indeed a genius-level point guard. His ball-handling ability, court vision, including passing angles, are already at the top level of the NBA." Jason Kidd was on the sidelines.
Said with great appreciation.
Kobe Bryant nodded.
In his mind, he has begun to sketch out a picture of himself and Li Zhen's perfect match on the court. He does not need a strong defender to help him arrange his defense, nor does he need an extremely strong attacker on the offensive end to share the firepower. He only needs someone who can quickly
The point guard who connects the triangle offensive system can connect himself with other players... This is a very basic requirement, but the Lakers locker room can't find one.
He turned his head and looked at Jenny Buss with a very clear look: I want him! I must want him!
Jenny Buss was almost frightened by this hot look. Phil Jackson also had this kind of fanatical look when he took strong drugs.
She subconsciously tightened her collar, and then realized that the Black Mamba didn't have any special thoughts about her. Instead, he wanted to get Bruce Lee on the court.
She then nodded and responded affirmatively.
Obviously, the game is not over yet. But the competition between the two point guards in Northern and Southern California has already been decided. The Lakers want Bruce Lee.
Clippers general manager Deng Liwei in the stands also wanted Bruce Lee.
Jordan Farmar never dreamed of such a result.
Fortunately, at this time, he finally used the screen and reverse running, received the pass from Bias, and hit a jump shot that stabilized the morale of the army.
The point difference was re-expanded to 4 points.
However, immediately afterwards, Li Zhen used Frank Benson's screen to quickly avoid Afflalo's pursuit, and passed the basketball to Scott. Scott penetrated the penalty area and forcibly broke through the defense, causing a foul while passing the basketball to Scott.
Stuffed hard into the basket.
Whoosh!
2+1 achieved.
There is 1 minute and 15 seconds left on the clock.
UCL is only ahead by 1 point.
The possibility of Stanford winning is getting higher and higher, and the passion of the players on the court is getting more and more burning, and it is very directly projected on the defense.
They stared at the UCL players desperately and tenaciously.
UCLA's movement became stagnant, and it took them almost 30 seconds to finally get a shot. The white shooter Bliss seized the opportunity and hit a line-stepping 2-pointer.
This made the UCL head coach on the sidelines very depressed. Because leading by 4 points and leading by 3 points are completely different concepts.
However, in the next round, they quickly regained their balance and became ecstatic.
Because Li Zhen passed the basketball to Thomson through the double screen of Frank Benson and Scott, Thomson's hit against Farmar's defense was also ruled by the referee as a two-point lineout, not a three-pointer.
This made the score a cruel 81:82 instead of a tie at 82:82.
There are 15 seconds left.
Ucla has the ball.
This is very uncomfortable and passive.
Stanford can use the foul, but after the foul, what if the opponent hits two free throws? The three-point difference will make Stanford extremely embarrassed.
Jordan Farmar even started blowing a victory whistle.
Stanford fought with Bruce Lee all night, and finally had to accept the verdict of fate.
Haha. Thinking about it is really...sad.
He looked at Bruce Lee with proud and provocative eyes.
But Bruce Lee's face was as serious as water. He was the person who stabilized the morale of Stanford's military. Anyone could mess up, but he must not mess up now.
If he messes up, the game is really over.
Beep!
What was unexpected was that the head coach of UCLA actually requested the last timeout. He obviously wanted to deploy the final tactics.
However, it gave Stanford an opportunity to carefully deploy defensive tactics.
"Believe me, we will definitely win!"
After Li Zhen completed the tactical arrangement, he told every player decisively!
Everyone looked at Li Zhen extremely seriously, and they trusted Bruce very much.
He is the one who brought the game here. If he says he can win, he will definitely win.
Even if I fall into extremely uncomfortable passivity now!
Soon...beep!
The whistle blows and the final battle officially begins!
The Great Western Forum Arena instantly became tense and chilly, and even the Black Mamba subconsciously clenched his fists.
Jason Kidd even said repeatedly: Come on Bruce, you must win!
