Georgia Tech, which was in a bad situation at the beginning, gradually gained more momentum after Li Yuan scored these two goals. Just as Archimedes once said: the latter comes to the top.

Although Connecticut opened up the situation first under Okafor's leadership, the University of Georgia withstood the pressure and burst out with stronger morale, which made Connecticut fall into a passive state.

In addition, the University of Georgia has been using the "double-team tactic" against Okafor in the following time, which has reduced Okafor many singles opportunities in the following time.

The University of Georgia's inside line was relieved on the defensive end.

Connecticut, who lacked such a "big killing weapon", struggled a little on the offensive end in the next attack.

The two factors combined have led the University of Georgia to end the first half with a 31-28-3-point lead.

It must be said that although Okafor is restricted on the offensive end, his presence on the defensive end is still strong. He has almost all destroyed several attacks at the basket at the University of Georgia.

It can be said that fortunately he existed, Connecticut was only 3 points behind.

"This guy is likely to become the best defensive player in the future. This guy's dominance on the defensive end is really amazing!"

Bill Walton, who has been praising Li Yuan, was also frightened by Okafor's defensive ability in the penalty area. With him, Connecticut's inside line is really full of "no airs".

"Well, fortunately, Georgia has Lee. His shooting feel is good tonight. He scored 6 points just by shooting. These 6 points are really critical for the University of Georgia. From the first half, his shooting ability is also very good!" Bill Walton praised Okafor, and Drexler naturally turned the gun to praise Lee Yuan. After the first half, he became more and more interested in Lee Yuan, which also made him pay special attention to Lee Yuan during that period. This made him discover one of Lee Yuan's advantages: his shooting is very stable.

He was able to score goals, but Connecticut was afraid to shrink his defense. Okafor defended George and most of the layups in the first half, but there were several breakthroughs still being scored by Georgia guys at the basket.

But it has nothing to do with Okafor, but his outside teammates did not get stuck, allowing the opponent to enter the inside easily. No matter how powerful the inside player is, it is difficult for him to make effective defense at this time, so Georgia's players scored these layups at the basket.

This is the benefit brought by Li Yuan's continued shooting goals from the outside and restraining the formation.

Think about it, if Li Yuan hadn't scored a goal from the outside, Connecticut would definitely shrink its defensive formation and cooperate with Okafor's supplementary defense... In that scene, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk

"These shots of this guy are really critical!" Drexler muttered again.

...

"How is it? Leon, I said that my boss is a very good guy. If you want to be his agent, it is definitely the right choice!"

Chris Bosh is also chatting with his agent Leon Rose, who came with him, who has plans to sign Li Yuan.

Of course, Li Yuan must have many choices. A guy like him who is well-known and has good strength will definitely not lack the attention of his agent.

This is also the reason why Leon Ross came to watch the game with Chris Posh today.

He knew that Chris Bosh had a good relationship with Li Yuan. He wanted to meet Li Yuan immediately through Chris Bosh, which would help him seize the initiative.

Chris Bosh also supports him signing Li Yuan.

However... Leon Ross looked at Chris Bosh and was excited to talk to him about Li Yuan's performance at this moment, but what he was thinking about was the conditions that Chris Bosh told him: I will try my best to win over Lee, but you must join me in persuading the Raptors management to let them sign Lee with this year's first round of signing.

Chris Bosh wants to continue to join forces with Li Yuan in the NBA.

He wanted Leon to help him and let the Raptors choose Lee Yuan with the first round pick.

But Leon knew that it was not easy.

The Raptors had a poor record last season, winning only 27 games, ranking seventh from the bottom in the league. This ranking means that their first round picks this year will not be low, and it is estimated that the worst result will be able to get the top ten signs.

But so far, judging from what Leon Ross has learned and the statements of NBA teams' internal personnel, Li Yuan's current performance can only be ranked 11th in the first round at most.

Although the gap is not big, Leon Ross clearly remembers that more than one team insider expressed his statement: "If I have the eleventh or twelve picks in the first round, I will consider signing Li to try it out, but if I have the top ten picks in the first round, I will not choose Li, the risk is too great!"

Li Yuan saw that he played well in NCAA and his current fame was also very good, but there is a fact that NBA has never had a precedent for Asian outsiders to gain a foothold in the league, not just Asian outsiders, but even European outsiders, the outside players who have entered the league have not had high draft picks at the beginning. Take Manuginobili and Tony Parker, one of them is a second round pick and the other is at the end of the first round... Li Yuan also has to lose that it was in NCAA that he proved that he could make some NBA insiders worth choosing him with the highest 11th pick in the first round, but this is also the limit.

If you want to use a higher signing position to choose Li Yuan, there is nothing Leon Rose has learned about.

In addition, there is another reason. The Raptors' management turmoil this year is quite serious. I heard that the Raptors boss is already considering dismissing Grenwald and finding a new general manager.

It’s not just the general manager who needs to be replaced, but the head coach also needs to be replaced when he heard.

There is another unstable factor: Vince Carter, the current Raptors' core core, has clamored to leave the Raptors more than once.

The combined unstable factors make ace general manager like Leonard not sure what the future direction of the Raptors will be.

In this case, he really cannot guarantee that the conditions that Chris Bosh told him can be achieved.

However, he had to admit that after watching the first half of the game between Georgia Tech and Connecticut, he became more and more confident in Li Yuan's future in the NBA. He believed that Li Yuan could perform well in the NBA, and it should not be a problem to stand firm in the main position of a team in the future.

This also made him increasingly anxious to sign Li Yuan.
