Chapter 30

With the 1996-1997 NBA season coming to an end, the NCAA game ushered in its own crazy March.

The Maryland Terrapins, which have Chinese players in the team, are even tougher.

Keith Brown, the fringe man who was waived by the Bulls in two seasons, is now the absolute core of the Terrapins.

After reaching the NCAA Tournament for three consecutive years, this year's Terrapins are a bit weird.

The Lithuanian in the team, Jaskovicius, the future Lithuanian NO.1, is also in the Terrapins team.

And Boss F in Tiger's memory hasn't come yet.

However, the same is true for Dazhi and Yaskovichus, who have been honed under the FIFB system, and they cooperate with each other very tacitly.

But the cooperation with other American players is still a bit familiar.

However, Dazhi's good basic skills won him enough playing time.

At first, Gary Williams thought an exchange student was just bigger. (Apparently he didn't watch the '96 Olympics.)
However, he soon discovered that this kid had exceptionally precise shots and an extremely soft touch.

Looking at this 7-footer, who has his own accurate shooting and Lithuanian's excellent awareness time and time again, the player who is placed on the bench in training often beats the main force headed by Keith Brown.

Therefore, he changed the Lithuanians and Big Zhi into the main team, unexpectedly, the chemical reaction between the Lithuanians, the Chinese and the Americans was really excellent.

In the subsequent games, the Terrapins, led by the three colors of black, white and yellow, swept their opponents all the way.

In the ACC league game.

The Terrapins faced North Carolina in the semifinals.

North Carolina, led by McGinnis and Carter, fought against the Terrapins led by Keith Brown.

Here McGinnis assisted Carter with a dunk.

The Terrapins were immediately followed by an assist from the Lithuanian to Keith Brown for a dunk.

North Carolina's Carter made a breakthrough to attract the defense and then made a back pass, and his teammates scored a layup.

Immediately, the water turtle made a chasing three-pointer, and Da Zhi made a three-pointer.

The two sides continued to fight like this until the last 25 seconds.

Now the two sides lead 65:66 North Carolina.

At this time, Gary Williams shouted loudly: "Number 4 tactics, number 4."

Everyone knows about water turtles.

That was a tactic specially formulated for Big Zhi.

Everyone pulled away.

The Lithuanian passed the ball tightly under control.

In the case of two off-ball screens with his teammates.

Da Zhi managed to escape the defense of the two players beautifully.

Da Zhi, who was catching the ball, looked at the basket unhurriedly, and the basketball that he often shot suddenly became much heavier.

He was just a 19-year-old kid after all.

Taking over such a task for the first time has never happened before.

And the whole team handed over the hope of victory to themselves.

I really can't hold it anymore. ,

However, the conditioned reflex that the body has formed has already thrown the ball.

It's amazing.

Also very lucky.

The ball is in.

At this time, there are still 11.6 seconds left.

At this time, Gary Williams jumped up excitedly.

68: 66.

The score is ahead of the water turtle.

Such a suspenseful game is even more worrying.

"All of you give me attention. No matter what you think before, such a player is not something you can underestimate. Don't get carried away thinking that you are North Carolina, so that you will know the pigs who will be beaten in the championship of."

Coach Smith picked up the tactical board and said: "Look, they have three strong points. The Lithuanians, the Chinese and Keith Brown are their offensive line. The defense of these three people is not very good, that is, Keith Brown. It's about the same. The other two guys are terrible defensively. Cartney made the last shot today, and the inside guy stretched the inside, making them think we are going to play two points and then play overtime. However, if we are three points , We don’t want to play overtime with a group of tortoise eggs. Run out of position and shoot, and then we will go home victoriously, and leave the failure to the tortoise eggs, go lads.” Said the coach who made the final arrangement.

"Carter, remember. It will be you, remember to me, you are the hero of this game, and 11.6 seconds are enough for us to kill them." Coach Smith roared.

The game continued.

According to the coach's request, the four North Carolina players stood in a row. When the referee whistle sounded, they suddenly spread out in all directions and opened up the defense of the water turtles.

Carter ran directly outside the 30-degree three-point line to the left. Seeing that Carter started to run, McGinnis flipped his wrist and passed the ball.

After Carter received the ball, regardless of other defenders, he made a shot with a high angle of elevation.

The ball has a great angle and a lot of power.

The ball quickly hit the backboard and directly into the basket.

When the North Carolina players saw the ball scored, they almost went crazy, because there were only 3.4 seconds before the game. If Maryland's backcourt started to serve, the opponent's chances would be almost zero.

When Carter saw the ball go in, he smacked his chest hard with a ferocious expression on his face. He didn't know what to say, but he was overexcited.

The team members in the water turtle were almost all downcast.

Only Da Zhi called the Lithuanian aside.

"IELTS, you get the ball, and I'll catch it halfway through the pass. We still have a chance." In addition to perfecting his skills in college, Dazhi found an opponent.

In China, players of his age are no longer his opponents. Only some players in the adult team can compete with him. However, there are too many basketball talents here. All types of players and coaches are great. This stimulated Dazhi's interest and determination.

"Oh man, do you think we can still win?" The Lithuanian looked at his teammate from China.

"Yes, brother, don't you think it's cool to pour cold water on the North Carolina people when they celebrate their victory?" Da Zhi winked at the Lithuanian.

"Hmm, you are right brother." The Lithuanian looked at the big Chinese man and said with a smile.

"Then let's do it, buddy" patted the Lithuanian, and Da Zhi ran forward.

The water turtle teeed off in 3.4 seconds.

The Lithuanian took the ball and brought it forward at high speed.

There are still 2 seconds left.

Pass the ball.

Da Zhi caught the ball accurately.

There are still 1 seconds left.

Shot.

The ball draws a beautiful arc in the sky.

With a bang, the ball went in.

The Terrapin players went crazy, and all the players rushed into the court, wildly celebrating the victory of the game.

However, the North Carolina native raised an objection, saying that the time was up when the ball was shot, and asked to review the video.

In fact, even the referee knew whether the ball was timed out, so he had to go back and watch the video.

In the technical seat, after reviewing several times, the referee announced.

The winner is North Carolina.

Because before the shot, the time has come, which is about 0.5 seconds slower.

Maryland players, watching the referee's decision, sat on the floor of the arena and wept in a low voice.

At this time, the head coach of Maryland stepped forward and pulled up the players one by one to comfort him: "Why are you crying, you have tried your best, so you are the best players I have ever seen. You didn't lose in strength, you lost in luck."

"You're right coach, guys stand up, we're going to leave here with our heads held high, you're not losers, we've driven North Carolina to this point, we're not Duke and UCLA guys, you're proud of it In addition, we have also entered the championship, we still have a chance to revenge, get up guys, don't let the North Carolina people look down on us." Team leader Keith Brown encouraged his players.

Looking at Dazhi who was so sad that he was crying, Tiger, who watched the game from the sidelines, was secretly happy that he had changed history.

In history, the big Zhi who lost and won with the same expression will no longer appear. Here, the guy who shares the joys and sorrows with his teammates and cries appears.

An international player who is being transformed by USA Basketball is on his way to success.

"I'm so great, ahahahahahahaha." Another burst of Zhou Xingxing's laughter came from inside a GM big jeep.
