Chapter 331 Playing 50 boards each, the NCAA Championship opens
After losing the game, Popovich shook hands with Tim Floyd unhappily. Now many experts are rumoring that Tim Floyd is copying the path that Popovich has walked, which is to hold a big and thigh that is the peak rookie who debuts, so the chance of becoming a famous coach or even a champion coach is no problem. This argument makes Popovich very uncomfortable, and he urgently wants to prove himself.
However, Popovich was quickly slapped in the face. In the 99-00 season, after Duncan missed his knee, the Spurs entered the playoffs as the third in the West, but the Suns were successful in black six and successfully solved the Spurs in four games. The most deceptive thing was that the Spurs scored more than 100 points in none of the four games, and the highest game was only 94 points, and they lost that game.
This is what Popovich doesn't want to mention the least, so every time he plays the Suns, the former wants to completely tear the latter apart. Compared to Duncan, Li Lei is the same as Duncan in other aspects, and compared to Duncan's teammate configuration, the group of people around Li Lei is really shabby. Before the season started, everyone was optimistic that they had booked the lottery for next season. As a result, they are currently the first in the regular season and are slapped in the face.
On the morning of March 15, the Bulls received a fax from the league. Atai was suspended for one game because of his military force with Bowen. The same is true for Bowen. Si Daddy did not favor the Bulls. Although he was optimistic about Li Lei, the Bulls currently do not have the capital to make Si Daddy completely invest. Now Si Daddy is thinking more about allowing the Lakers to successfully win this three-game championship, and then others. However, this season, there are many unexpected things.
"Hey, I still miss Chicago hot girls, San Antonio and these are not my food at all. We might as well go to Houston."
Brand had a walkman hanging on his ears, beating in the restaurant, and Li Lei silently finished all the food in the plate and pushed the plate aside.
"Since Elton is so idle, should you go to Pittsburgh with me?"
Pittsburgh Brand thought for a long time, and Chandler was trying hard to swallow a huge burger.
"Why are you going to Pittsburgh? Is it a fishy thing? No, Bruce, you are a man with a girlfriend." After Chandler swallowed the burger, he immediately began to preach to Li Lei. Since Li Lei helped him match Penny Taylor, this guy has always wanted to repay Li Lei. In his daily life, he would not miss the opportunity to find it.
Steal your sister, Li Lei really doesn't want to say anything. Do you think I am you? A group of guys who think in this way, I am not as hungry and thirsty as you.
"I'm going to see the first round of UCL's championship. Are you going? I have tickets." Li Lei also took out the ticket to show off, but no one responded. Li Lei seemed to hear the crows from the sky.
Brand went straight back to the room, and the other few people were almost the same.
It seems that I am the only one who went there. Although NCAA is a national event, it has not reached the quarterfinals and the quarterfinals, the audience will not pay attention to it at all, unless it is a casual and painful existence like Li Lei.
Because the season has entered the final stage, Li Lei doesn't want to tie the whole person so tightly, it's better to relax.
Flying from the southwest to Pittsburgh, Li Lei fell asleep in a daze on the plane. By the time the flight attendants woke him up, he had already arrived at his destination.
Li Lei got off the plane and walked slowly from the airport to the Citizen Arena. This arena is the venue for today's UCL game. Their game will start around 8 o'clock. Li Lei looked at the time in his hand. There were still dozens of minutes left before 8 o'clock.
On the UCL side, the players have already started to warm up. Li Lei came to the audience and greeted head coach Steve Lavin.
Steve Lavin seemed to be talking to the assistant coach. Looking at Li Lei in the audience, the former was a little overjoyed.
"Bruce, are you here to cheer for UCL? You are the only UCL legend to be present today." Although Li Lei's career has just begun, his position in UCL's school history has been established, unless there is another first-year grade to break this record.
Li Lei didn't know the two assistants next to Steve Lavin. It seems that UCL is very good at being a human being. Michael Holden and Jim Saiyan were all cleaned up.
Li Lei walked down from the audience and came to Steve Laven.
"I came today without a match. You have to cheer up today in this game. It's not easy for the opponent to mess with."
Steve Laven agreed with Li Lei's words, and UCL's team members gathered here when they saw Li Lei.
"Bruce, you bastard, actually lied to me. Didn't you say you won't come to my game?" Barnes said nothing when he saw Li Lei, and just a bear hug, and then Capono. The two gay guys took enough oil on Li Lei before letting go of Li Lei.
"Matt, it seems that you have not been idle this year. Your strength is more powerful than before. Come on, I am optimistic about you in this game."
UCLa's opponent is the Mississippi Rebels, who entered the championship as the third seed of the SEC League. That league has various powerful players such as Florida, Kentucky, and Georgia Tech. They can enter the championship as the third seed, which really cannot be underestimated.
Barnes was very satisfied with Li Lei's praise, because of Li Lei's guidance. Barnes conducted training without the ball and three-pointers on both wings this year, and gave up the ball-holding training. Now, Barnes has developed well.
At eight o'clock, the competition began soon. Li Lei did not meet fans or anything in the audience. After all, he is not the one who is so popular now, let alone the era of crazy short videos and Weibo in his previous life.
The Rebels played a very overall game, and they bite very tightly with UCL in the first half. They obviously did their homework before the game.
In the second half, the balance of the scene was quickly broken. Barnes scored a three-pointer on each wing, sounding the horn of UCLa's offense, which forced the rebels to give up their defense against Capono. As a result, the latter also started to play. UCLa made a refreshing attack in the second half and advanced to the next round. The best game was awarded to Barnes, who scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in the game. Those two three-pointers were really critical for UCL.
UCLa took a key step in their title defense journey, but Li Lei knew very well that it was really difficult for UCLa to defend this year.
