With 8 minutes left before the end of the game, Li Kaiming grabbed an offensive rebound in an attack, then squeezed out Britton and took off, dunking with both hands.
A system prompt suddenly appeared in his sight.
[System]: Congratulations to the host, for completing the D-level basic task, receiving 3 basic reward attribute points and 5 points!
He was relieved when he saw this. Unknowingly, he had scored the 30 points stipulated by the system. At this time, the point difference between the two sides had reached 14 points, and the Tigers led 60:46.
But he can't get off the field yet, because the advanced task requires him to keep a clean sheet on the opposing defender, which is the Miners' center Britton. If he is replaced and Britton takes the opportunity to steal a goal, then the thirty players in front of him will Minutes of all-out defense were in vain!
So when Pastner asked him if he wanted to rest during the timeout, he shook his head decisively, "There is still time, and the opponent may fight back desperately, so we must not be careless!"
Pastner's heart moved, and he nodded immediately, thinking to himself, "Josh, Josh, as a coach, why do you realize that you are not as good as the players? On the court, everything is possible, and you cannot let down your guard until the last moment. "
Thinking of this, he looked at Li Kaiming with more admiration, "No wonder Li gave him a chance to perform. Such a mentality must be what a successful person should have."
Back on the court, Li Kaiming still worked hard on defense. On the defensive end, he did not miss any layup from the opponent and tried hard to pounce on all the shots. Under his leadership, the Tigers players were like tigers encountering prey, ruthlessly attacking. They tore at the opponent, causing the Miners players to be exhausted, and the sound of hammering could be heard endlessly.
On the offensive end, Li Kaiming took the lead, actively picking and rolling for his teammates, and paying attention to sharing the ball. At the same time, he did not forget the tactical strategy formulated before the game - to destroy the opponent's inside line.
The Miners' inside defense is already weak. When faced with his inside offense, which is no less than that of some NBA All-Star centers, it is impossible to parry. Facing his powerful attack on the basket, the Miners' penalty area is like a wooden railing meeting an infantry tank. Just like that, it was destroyed in an instant!
Once the Miners are unable to defend him, they will have to use the ultimate weapon - three-person double-teams under the screams of coach Tony Barbie. However, although Li Kaiming's passing is not particularly good, the three-person team surrounds him and brings huge benefits. He can still pass out the open space. Coupled with the vision bonus brought by his extraordinary height, the Miners' tide of "death counterattacks" were resolved by him layer by layer...
The other players of the Tigers, who had been working hard for ten minutes in the second half, were gradually awakening, and the three-pointers they shot were like swords piercing the Miners' chest.
Facing the situation of being eliminated, the Miners burst out with unprecedented energy, but this energy is limited.
Especially when they found that no matter how hard they tried, they could not guard against the No. 34 on the opposite side, and the score difference was getting wider and wider under their desperate eyes, their explosive energy was quickly eliminated...
No matter how the coach of the Miners, Tony Barbie, screamed and cursed on the sidelines, the players on the field were like corpses, mechanically shooting the ball, passing the ball, shooting, and hitting the iron...
Finally, the game came to an end at the on-site referee's whistle. The University of Memphis Tigers defeated the University of Texas at El Paso Miners 78:56 and won the 2009-2010 C-USA League. Championship, and represented the C-USA League into March Madness and became a seeded team in the Midwest Division of the NCAA National Championship.
Li Kaiming looked at the prompt that the advanced mission was completed in the system and breathed a sigh of relief. In the last few minutes of the game, the Miners saw that the situation was over and took the lead in withdrawing the main force. He also asked Pastner to go and rest. , if the opposing coach insists on letting the starter play until the end, then he will have to stay on the court shamelessly.
However, despite this, he also dominated the crowd with 34 minutes of playing time, becoming the player with the longest playing time in both lineups. The result of this was that he scored a terrifying 40 points, 15 rebounds, 10 assists and 5 blocks. Data, while the hit rate is as high as 70%!
Calvin and Jackson in the commentary box were still summarizing after the game, "Who would have thought that Memphis could make it to the end after going through coaching changes and personnel shortages in the offseason, as well as the main players being injured and retired in the playoffs? !”
Jackson also lamented, "Yeah, after Calipari joined Kansas, I even thought Memphis would be ranked last in the regular season. I didn't expect that they would be the champion of the C-USA League."
Calvin nodded, "Ladies and gentlemen, let us congratulate the Memphis Tigers. After today, they have reached March Madness for three consecutive seasons, becoming the first team in the C-USA League to achieve this goal. 2007-2008 In the 2008-2009 season, Memphis reached the NCAA finals under the leadership of Derrick Rose but lost. In the 2008-2009 season, Memphis had Tyreke Evans, who was later selected by the Kings with the 4th overall pick in the first round. Under his leadership, Memphis reached the Sweet Sixteen. This year, the highest predicted pick in the Memphis lineup is Elliott Williams, and there is also the sudden emergence of Li Kaiming. This Memphis youth team, between the two of them, How far can we go under the leadership? We will wait and see..."
In the audience, Maren Bart put away his notebook. He looked at the contents written by himself in the notebook, and felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Originally, the team sent him here to inspect Elliott Williams, but most of the contents in his notes were related to Li Kaiming.
However, he was extremely lucky in his heart. Fortunately, he saw this game, otherwise he would have missed this unicorn-like monster player. He believed that when he put the performance of the Chinese player No. 34 in front of the team management , their shock must not be any less than his!
The fat man Kent next to him also wrote a few pages with satisfaction. He put away his notebook and looked at Maren Bart. At the same time, Bart also looked at him. The two looked at each other and sighed in unison.
"genius!"
The scout's work schedule was very tight, and the two exchanged a few words before leaving quickly. Kent's main task of coming here had been completed, and he had to return to the team to report the results of his trip to the management.
But Bart's task was more complicated. His expression was solemn and his steps were hurried.
He wanted to rush back as soon as possible and send the content of the game, especially Li Kaiming's performance, to the team as soon as possible, because he knew that with the performance of the Chinese teenager tonight, within twenty-four hours, all sports media in the United States would report it Eyes focused on him.
He wanted to persuade the team to contact Li Kaiming in advance before he appeared on the front page of the newspaper. He had an intuition in his heart that if he missed this guy, he might regret it and beat his chest in the future!
