In the waiting area, Sun Yi looked anxiously at the situation on the field.
In these two rounds, both sides were trying outside shots, which ended in blackouts. There were very few fouls and no dead ball situations.
"Those guys from North Carolina are so stupid. When they saw that I was going to play, they didn't force themselves to hit the inside and draw fouls. They wanted to delay my time to play." Sun Yi complained in his heart.
On the court, Curry was a little anxious. He used the screen to shoot a three-pointer without getting rid of the defender.
"when!"
The basketball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced out.
North Carolina protected the offensive rebounds and launched a defensive counterattack.
Ellington quickly dribbled forward, reached outside the three-point line, and used a fake move to shake off the defender and break into the penalty area. After being double-teamed by the Wildcats, Ellington split the ball.
Danny Green in the corner received the ball and hit the go-ahead three-pointer.
49:51!
The North Carolina Tar Heels once again took the lead.
"North Carolina! North Carolina! North Carolina!"
The audience suddenly burst into applause, and the blue "waves" rolled crazily again.
There was a dead ball, and Sun Yi, who was waiting in the area, came on immediately and replaced Curry.
Sun Yi high-fived Curry and said, "Stephen, rest easy. I won't let those guys widen the score. I'm still waiting for you to come back and lead the Wildcats to victory."
Curry's originally dull eyes became brighter and he replied: "Sun, come on!"
Sun Yi nodded and came to the venue.
After the substitution adjustment, Sun Yi controlled the ball and came outside the three-point line, observing the position of his teammates and preparing to deal the cards.
Ellington immediately stepped forward to defend closely, disrupting Sun Yi's sight.
Sun Yi squeezed Ellington away, started quickly, and broke into the three-point line.
At the same time, Danny Green quickly stepped forward to cover up the defense, preparing to double-team Sun Yi with Ellington.
"It's still the same defensive strategy, and it seems like North Carolina can't do any tricks."
Seeing this, Sun Yi passed the ball out.
On the North Carolina bench, head coach Roy Williams smiled when he saw the scene on the court.
The Wildcat offense once again had nothing to fear as they got caught in their trap.
But Roy Williams was not happy for long, and the smile on his face suddenly stopped.
"How is that possible?!" Williams stared at the scene happening on the court with wide eyes.
On the court, Karen did not shoot after receiving the ball. Instead, he attracted the defense and hit the ball to the center.
At this moment, Sun Yi suddenly appeared, received the pass and scored an easy layup.
On the other side, Danny Green rubbed his chest, then raised his hand to indicate that it was his fault.
"It really hurts!"
He also did not expect that the Wildcats' No. 10 player would use violence to break the double team.
Looking back, Hansbrough faced Cullen's defense and hit a small throw from close range.
In this way, the scores alternated and the game was very tense.
When the second half of the game lasted more than ten minutes.
Dion Thompson grabbed an offensive rebound and assisted Hansbrough to hit a half-shot basket. North Carolina opened the point difference to 6 points.
"If the Wildcats want to recover the score, they have to protect the rebounds. So far in the game, they have lost more than a dozen basketball balls to North Carolina, especially the offensive rebound protection is not good enough." Kenny Smith analyzed.
"North Carolina had too many secondary offenses in this game. If the Wildcats don't make some adjustments, it will be difficult to win the game." Barkley echoed.
Why was the opponent grabbed an offensive rebound again!
On the sidelines, Wildcats head coach Mike Lopp shook his head helplessly when he saw the scene on the court. There was really no one under him to use.
Whiteside was ejected from the game, and backup center Anderson was in foul trouble and unable to defend effectively.
As for other inside players, they cannot be reused in such a game.
McClop immediately requested a timeout and called the players back to the bench to adjust.
After the Wildcats players returned to the bench, McClop wrote and drew on the tactical board, seizing the time to lay out tactics.
"We have to protect the rebounds, which we did very poorly. If we cannot protect the rebounds, it will be difficult to catch up with the score." McClop emphasized.
Karen and Anderson lowered their heads and said nothing, with somewhat depressed expressions.
In this game, they were outplayed by the University of North Carolina's inside line, which held the team back.
"Coach, I seem to have thought of a solution to this problem." Sun Yi raised his hand and said.
McClop looked at Sun Yi and did not think that this little guy was causing trouble. He immediately said, "Sun, tell me what you think."
After Sun Yi got the approval of the head coach, he began to describe his method.
After listening to this, McClop was thoughtful and could only act like a doctor, and nodded in agreement.
"Then follow the offensive and defensive tactics mentioned by Sun."
After McClop finished speaking, he improved the details and quickly laid out the tactics.
The timeout ends, players from both sides return to the court, and the game continues.
Curry also returned to the court and will play the last seven or eight minutes of the game.
The Wildcats sent a baseline kick, and Curry advanced toward the frontcourt unhurriedly.
When the primary school student came to a position half a meter away from the three-point line, he controlled the ball and stopped it in place.
At the same time, Sun Yi quickly ran forward to set up a pick-and-roll.
"The Wildcats still play pick-and-roll, but this time the distance is a little farther!"
In the commentary box, Kenny Smith was a little confused, wondering how the Wildcats would complete this offense.
When the North Carolina players saw Curry and Sun Yi's pick-and-roll position, it was a little difficult to deal with. They didn't know whether they should step forward to double-team.
On the other side, Curry immediately started, bypassing the screen, getting rid of Green's defense, coming to almost the NBA three-point line, and took off to shoot.
Danny Green and Ellington were firmly blocked by Sun Yi and failed to pursue the defense immediately.
Ty Lawson, who came quickly from inside the three-point line, could only watch the ball and sigh.
Swish! Hollow into the net!
In the auditorium, the red ocean rolled again!
North Carolina's players didn't take it to heart. As long as their offense didn't stretch their legs, the Wildcats wouldn't be able to catch up with the score difference.
Ty Lawson dribbled forward and found that hateful guy running into the penalty area to act as the center and sneered.
"This guy is just giving away points as a center. It seems like the Wildcats gave up on defending the paint."
In order to embarrass Sun Yi, Ty Lawson dribbled the ball outside the three-point line and hoisted the ball into the paint without thinking.
Dion Thompson was very excited after catching the ball and felt that his good luck had come.
Originally, his hope of entering the NBA was slim, but now, here comes the point-giving boy. As long as he can produce good statistics, he still has a chance.
Dion Thompson quickly seized the opportunity and started to hit Sun Yi from behind. He hit Sun Yi a few times and found that he only moved a short distance. He was very shocked.
"This guy doesn't look strong! What's going on?"
Sun Yi was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the badge [Restricted Deterrence] to be so effective.
He guessed that the reason for this may be the bonus effect of the badge, and the fact that the guy in front of him is a strong-willed person.
Seeing that he couldn't beat Sun Yi, Dion Thompson looked a little ugly. In order to save his face, he didn't pass the ball out. He used his strength to squeeze Sun Yi away, turned around awkwardly and made a hook.
Sun Yi did not take off and raised his arms to interfere.
With the bonus effect of the badge, he prevented this attack and also protected the backcourt rebound.
On the sidelines, head coach McClop saw this scene and shook his fist excitedly.
"Yes! I knew this little guy could do it."
At the beginning, he agreed that Sun Yi's plan did involve gambling. Fortunately, the gamble was right.
On the court, Curry and Sun Yi once again played a pick-and-roll match in the same position.
North Carolina was very decisive this time and stepped forward to double-team Curry.
The primary school student separated the ball, and Sun Yi received the pass. With the bonus effect of the badge [Dealing Cards at the Top of the Arc], he quickly and accurately passed the ball to Chris Beal, who was in the open position.
As the backup shooting guard of the Wildcats, Bill has a mid-range jumper. After receiving the pass, he shot decisively and hit the mid-range jumper.
In the next round, Ty Lawson and Dion Thompson cooperated in a pick-and-roll. Seeing that Sun Yi did not follow, he bypassed the screen and came to the front of the penalty area, and directly stopped for a jumper.
Sun Yi in the penalty area immediately rushed to interfere.
With the bonus effect of the bond badge [Block Master], Sun Yi's jumping ability has been greatly improved.
Snap!
The basketball Ty Lawson just shot was swatted away by Sun Yi.
The pursuing Curry happened to catch the basketball, immediately turned around and ran towards the frontcourt, launching a defensive counterattack.
The primary school student Yi Ma Pingchuan came outside the three-point line and chased for a three-pointer.
"Uh-huh!"
The basketball hits the net hollowly and hits the target steadily!
The Wildcats went ahead again!
The audience burst into applause, cheers and shouts resounded throughout the arena, and the atmosphere reached its peak again.
On the North Carolina bench, head coach Roy Williams couldn't sit still and immediately requested a timeout and called the players back to the bench to adjust.
"Hahaha, Sun was very effective at center and stopped North Carolina." Barkley said with a smile.
"I didn't expect Sun's core strength to be so strong that he could withstand the opposing center. It seems that after this game, his draft stock will rise again." Kenny Smith praised without hesitation.
At the same time, in a VIP box, Schwartz was in a good mood and said to his subordinates with a smile: "You see! Will such physical fitness become a parallel import?"
The man in the suit who had made a mistake before said nothing, feeling that he might not be able to keep his job.
Back on the court, the timeout ends and the game continues.
After returning from the timeout, North Carolina changed its offensive strategy and began to look for opportunities on the outside.
Danny Green took advantage of the off-ball screen from his teammates, ran to the three-point line to catch the ball and hit the ball, once again leading the lead back.
Seeing this situation, Sun Yi shook his head helplessly. He could not help defend the outside line, he could only ensure that everything around the penalty area was safe.
Moreover, the Wildcats' perimeter defense was indeed very poor, giving North Carolina many easy shooting opportunities.
The ball was in transition and the Wildcats were on offense.
Curry used the double screen from his teammates to get rid of the defense and shoot a three-pointer.
Bang!
The basketball bounced out of the frame and missed!
Under the basket, with the bonus of the bond badge, Sun Yi instantly rose into the air, grabbed the rebounding basketball and dunked it into the basket.
In the auditorium, the red "ocean" boiled again!
In the following games, North Carolina made a fuss from the outside. Ty Lawson, Danny Green, and Ellington fired from the outside, hitting one three-pointer after another, maintaining a weak lead.
The Wildcats relied on the tacit cooperation between Curry and Sun Yi to score frequently and secure the score.
In this way, the scores took the lead alternately, no one took advantage, and the game reached the final moment.
At this time, there were only 50 seconds left before the end of the game. The score on the big screen was 76 to 77, with the University of North Carolina leading by 1 point.
In the front row of the audience, Jordan looked at the players running on the field and felt as if he was back in his freshman year.
At that time, he used a beautiful jump shot to win the national championship for North Carolina.
I wonder which little guy will hit the winning goal this time?
It’s really exciting!
On the court, Ty Lawson controlled the ball steadily and pressed for time.
Curry is prepared, and he must defend this ball before the Wildcats have a chance to win.
With about 10 seconds left in the attack time, Ty Lawson started to start, using the cover of his teammates to break into the three-point line.
But he didn't expect that baby face to stand in front of him again.
"Damn it!" Ty Lawson cursed secretly. Instead of playing recklessly, he passed the ball back to Hansbrough near the free throw line.
After Hansbrough received the ball, he immediately took off and shot.
At this moment, a big hand blocked Hansbrough's sight, and his shooting was seriously interfered with.
"Damn it! How did this guy come so fast!"
Hansbrough wanted to rush into the penalty area and fight for the offensive rebound, but was firmly blocked by Sun Yi.
Under the basket, Wildcats power forward Cullen struggled to get in position and grabbed a crucial rebound.
At this time, there were 22 seconds left before the end of the game. Wildcats head coach McClop immediately requested the last timeout and arranged the final attack.
In the audience, Jordan, Carter and other North Carolina alumni sighed and felt pity.
If this goal were scored, North Carolina would be invincible.
Although they didn't score, North Carolina still had the advantage. As long as they prevented the Wildcats' last attack, they could still win the championship.
On the Wildcats bench, McClop was racing against time to set up tactics.
"Leave the ball to Stephen and Sun, and whoever has the chance will execute the winning goal!"
The Wildcats players nodded in understanding.
In the front row of the audience, Kobe, James, Garnett and others discussed how they would handle this offense if they were in charge.
Dayao looked serious, sweating for his little brother Sun Yi, looking forward to completing the winning goal.
At the same time, the big screen began to play the scene of Sun Yi assisting Curry to beat Michigan State.
The fans in front of the TV couldn't guess which one of them would complete the last attack.
Not long after, the timeout ended and the game continued.
The fans in the audience stood up and held their breath to watch the last attack.
Curry received the baseline serve, dribbled forward slowly and stopped half a meter away from the three-point line.
North Carolina's players did not act rashly and still defended according to the head coach's instructions.
When there were about 10 seconds left in the game, Curry started to start, and Sun Yi also caught up to cover.
Green quickly squeezed through the screen and chased Curry, and the other three North Carolina players were ready to defend at any time.
On the other side, Cullen stepped forward to set an off-ball screen for Curry, and the other two Wildcats players cut inside and performed feints.
When Curry used the screen to get rid of Green and reached the three-point line, Ellington came up to defend and blocked him.
The elementary school student didn't force the shot and immediately passed the ball.
He found that Sun Yi's chances were better than his own, and he trusted his brother very much, just like he trusted him before.
After Sun Yi finished the screen, he squeezed away from Ty Lawson and ran to the right side of the three-point line. He just received Curry's pass and moved his right foot forward. It was considered a system bug and it also gave him some confidence. , and then immediately took off to shoot.
The moment he took action, the bond badge was not activated. The goal was entirely dependent on his personal ability.
Ty Lawson, who was chasing, and Hansbrough, who was covering, rushed to interfere, but they failed to touch the basketball.
The basketball drew a perfect arc in the air.
Swish!
Hollow into the net!
At the same time, a harsh buzzer sounded and a red light glowed around the backboard, signaling the end of the game.
"It's over! It's all over! Sun Jue defeated North Carolina, and the Wildcats are the champions! They are the champions!"
In the commentary box, Barkley excitedly stood on the table and roared loudly, announcing the final result to thousands of fans.
