The on-site commentator lamented: "It is a pity that the University of Memphis failed to seize the opportunity in a great situation and end the game. In overtime, both sides started on the same starting line, but the morale is completely on the Kansas side!"

Since the University of Arizona and the University of Kentucky competed for the championship in 1997, the NCAA finals have been dragged into overtime for the first time in this decade.

The break is coming soon and overtime is about to begin.

Dorgil and Arthur are having a second round of jumping balls near the center circle! The thrilling overtime is about to begin!

Arthur beat Dogier with a jump ball and Kansas got the ball.

Chalmers slowly dribbled the ball through half-court. Now they are not behind, so there is no need to deliberately increase the offensive rhythm. Ensuring the success rate is the most important thing now.

The support for the University of Kansas in the stadium was louder than that of the University of Memphis. In the eyes of many people, the University of Memphis seemed to be in doom and gloom, and their good luck seemed to have come to an end.

The players on the Kansas court were full of confidence. Cole Aldridge came out to cover, and Chalmers took the ball to the right and passed it to Rush in the bottom corner.

Rush faked a shot, held the ball and broke through the baseline, then split the ball outside the 3-point line on the left wing.

Xie Kai caught the ball and had not yet made a complete shooting motion. The defensive players on the University of Memphis side seemed to have been electrocuted. Two people came up to attack!

"Oh my god, the Tigers actually started to double-team Kaneshe. This is the kind of treatment only star players receive!" the on-site commentator said in surprise.

The CDR who participated in the pincer attack did not forget to stimulate Xie Kai: "If you have the ability, just fight it yourself!"

Xie Kai looked very calm. He was very confident at this time, but he was not a fool. If he could stand up to two people and hit a three-pointer in this situation, then he would really be cheating. He was holding the ball.

He took two steps towards the top of the arc and threw the ball to Arthur in the middle with one hand.

Arthur catches the ball, leans on Dorsey, and hits a hook - there it is!

This is the first time the University of Kansas has taken the lead since the second half. Not only the fans rejoiced, but the players and coaches on the bench also stood up excitedly and applauded non-stop.

Kansas takes the lead in overtime!

"Kane played the ball very calmly! He did not attack rashly, but very smartly passed the ball to Darrell, who was in a better position under the basket." The on-site commentator praised. As the game progressed,

Xie Kai's performance became more and more impressive, and he began to praise him continuously.

For the University of Memphis, Rose made a sudden pass and was intercepted by Rush!

Rush counterattacked directly after stealing the ball and scored a one-stop dunk!

Kansas leads by 4 points!

University of Memphis coach John Calipari decisively requested a timeout!

"Kansas had a great momentum in overtime and is now 4 points ahead. Memphis is in the biggest dilemma of the game. What kind of adjustments will they make?" said the on-site commentary.

Coach Self is very satisfied with the team's current fighting spirit. He emphasized during the timeout: "Continue to maintain defensive intensity and don't foul easily. Be decisive when attacking, attack when you have the opportunity, and don't waste time deliberately!"

When the timeout time is up, the game continues.

At this time, there are 3 minutes and 51 seconds left before the end of overtime.

Rose dribbled the ball across half court and organized an attack at the top of the arc. As this year's top pick, his goal is to lead the University of Memphis to win the first NCAA championship in team history, then win the O and declare his participation in the NBA draft.

The script was already thought out, but the great situation was ruined by a little-known yellow-skinned boy.

Rose did not give up. He still used his breakthroughs to create opportunities for his teammates.

However, I don’t know if the players on the University of Memphis side were affected by their mentality. Antonio Anderson received Rose’s sudden score and was unable to hit the open space!

Arthur collected the backcourt rebound strongly and handed it to Chalmers to advance.

Coach Self on the sidelines shouted to the court: "Don't be anxious, just be steady!"

Chalmers suppressed his inner impulse to be unrestrained and slowed down his pace to avoid making mistakes while busy.

In the NCAA, the authority of the head coach cannot be challenged. A famous coach like Coach Self is extremely authoritative in the team and can speak for himself. This is a little different from the NBA. In the NBA, players are the most valuable assets, stars.

A player's annual salary may be several times that of a famous coach.

Xie Kai was flanked on the weak side, and Chalmers fought more with his teammates on the strong side. Through the cooperation of pick and cut, Arthur received Cole Aldridge's high pass and succeeded in the alley-oop!

The University of Kansas went on a 6:0 run and currently leads its opponent by 6 points at 65:59!

"Kansas' offense has been completely activated, and Memphis is in danger!" said the on-site commentator. He did not say that the situation was over for the University of Memphis, which was already giving them face.

The University of Kansas became more and more courageous as they played, while the University of Memphis became more and more impatient as they played, and the result is naturally predictable. The 5 minutes of overtime were not very long in the NCAA with 35 seconds of attack time. In this regard, the team was 6 points behind.

, but it is extremely difficult to turn it over.

In the subsequent three waves of offense by the University of Memphis, only CDR made two free throws due to fouls committed by the opponent. In addition, the team did not score any goals in sports games. And it was too late for his free throw shooting percentage to return.

.

The University of Kansas played steadily, relied on foul shots, and scored 3 more points in the rest of the game. In the end, as the final buzzer sounded, they defeated their opponents 68:61 and won the NCAA again after 20 years.

Championship winner!

After the final whistle sounded, players from the University of Kansas bench, coaching staff, staff and a large number of reporters rushed into the court. Everyone in Kansas hugged and shouted wildly, and many people cried with joy.

Colorful ribbons fluttered in the sky and fell to the floor one after another, adding a glorious atmosphere to this historic moment. In the center of the court, players from the University of Kansas Jayhawks wearing blue uniforms were celebrating.

This game was too thrilling, too difficult to win, and the victory was extremely hard-won.

Xie Kai cried with joy, and the tears of excitement fell down like big ones. He didn't feel ashamed. He knew how much he and the team had sacrificed for this moment. Few people were optimistic about them before the game.

, because this civilian team lacked superstars, but their tenacity pushed the game into overtime and finally reversed and won.

The University of Kansas won its first NCAA championship in 20 years. Their last championship dates back to 1988 when Larry Brown led the team. Today's Jayhawks coach Bill Self was Brown's assistant at the time. The team at that time

Danny Manning, the number one star of the NBA, who won an O, is now Bill Self’s assistant.

In the past 20 years, the University of Kansas Jayhawks, led by Roy Williams, have made it to the NCAA Final Four four times and reached the championship finals twice, but in the end they all failed.

For the University of Memphis, only one free throw was missing and the team lost the national championship. Coach Calipari had the opportunity to justify his dynamic offense that advocates local one-on-one. His system is different from the traditional play style.

, almost completely abandoning the popular pick-and-roll tactics, the whole team spreads out and creates local one-on-one opportunities through team transfers, using the players' personal abilities to make a fuss, and the team always seizes any opportunity at a fast pace.
Chapter completed!
