I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 69 Current and Past

The three days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was the day when the semi-finals started.

The two games of the Final Four will be played over two days.

The first game is North Carolina VS Kansas.

This is a contest full of love and hatred. Under the hype of the media, the eyes of basketball fans all over the United States are focused on the Alamo Arena in San Antonio.

The protagonist of the behind-the-scenes story is North Carolina coach Roy Williams.

Williams has coached in Kansas for 15 years, and his record is shining: four times into the semi-finals, two times into the finals, won more than 400 games, and maintained a winning rate of 80% every year!
But luckily, I don't know if he didn't fit in with the team, but Kansas has always missed the championship.

The media jokingly called Williams "the best coach who can't win a championship". Although it has the meaning of praise, it seems to be more of a joke.

In the 2002-03 season, after losing to Syracuse University led by "Melon" Anthony in the final, and missing the championship trophy again, Williams finally couldn't stand it anymore and fled the sad place of Kansas to North Carolina. Carolina looks for a second career.

Although North Carolina is a wealthy family, it was a poor nobleman before Williams arrived. It has not entered the final championship for two years.

But under Williams' rejuvenation, after two seasons, North Carolina actually won the championship in 2005!

It can be regarded as fulfilling Williams' long-cherished wish.

But in this way, the rumors that Kansas and Williams are incompatible are even more solid.

The Kansas people are naturally quite critical, you have led us for 15 years and have not won the championship!After running to North Carolina for two years, he won the championship!
Williams was also very upset. It turned out that it wasn't that I didn't have a championship life, but that I was dragged down by Kansas's feng shui!
Under the vigorous advocacy and exaggeration of the media who watched the excitement and were not afraid of big things, grievances and entanglements arose between the former masters and apprentices.

Both of them want to defeat each other, which proves that the other party's weak chicken has dragged themselves down!
Facts have proved that the most entangled relationship in the world is the breakup after staying together; the most difficult relationship is the current and ex!
Before the start of the game, the reporters were keenly aware that players from the University of Memphis and UCLA also appeared in the stands to observe the performance of their future opponents.

It seems that these two teams that have not yet played against each other are also bound to win the finals.

This contest also had twists and turns, ups and downs.

At the beginning, the Kansasian, who was full of resentment, taught his fellow juniors a lesson.

As Darrell Arthur opened the scoring with a jumper on the right side of the paint, the Kansas people in bright blue uniforms played a 7:2 spurt!

Even after Williams called an emergency timeout, the situation did not improve.

The Kansas players seemed to be trying their best to prove themselves in front of their former coaches. They made all kinds of shots from inside and outside, which made North Carolina dizzy.

Only 10 minutes into the first half, the score was pulled to an astonishing 33:10!

Yes, you read that right, North Carolina, which scored more than 100 points in the previous game, only scored 1 points in the first quarter of this game!
Men's resentment towards their ex is really terrible!

Coach Williams is in a hurry!The incumbent was beaten like a bear in front of his predecessor, isn't this slapping himself in the face naked!

He hurriedly called a timeout again, and with a violent storm, the team members were scolded bloody!

During this timeout, he didn't say a single word about the tactics, and used it all for spraying.All kinds of obscenities penetrated into the players' ears like steel needles, stimulating their nerves!
After the timeout ended, the assistant coach asked worriedly, "Roy, is this okay? Will these little guys be overwhelmed?"

Williams sighed, "We didn't lose technically, but we were suppressed mentally. I hope my words can stimulate the bloody courage in their hearts! Otherwise, this match will really be over!"

Sure enough, the North Carolina players who returned to the court were all blushing and full of evil spirits.

They were about to explode and could only vent their anger on their opponents!
North Carolina's leading star Hansbrough made a tough layup and was fouled by the thugs. Although the ball missed, the opponents were surprised by the momentum he ignited.

This is unprecedented in the first 10 minutes of the game!
Hansbrough made a free throw and made two free throws, sounding the counterattack horn.

In the next game, the North Carolina players played extremely tough, and there was no longer the incumbent cringing in front of his predecessor.

I'm obviously married to a bright matchmaker, why are you afraid of being kicked out by your ex? !

Williams deserves to be an experienced marshal, who broke the mental suppression of the Kansas people on North Carolina with a scolding meal!

At this point, the game is really on the right track.

However, the Kansas people will not be defeated because of the opponent's counterattack, and their anger has not disappeared yet.

The two sides came and went, and the fight was very lively, showing a posture of fighting each other.

At the end of the first half, the two sides scored 44:27, and Kansas still led by 17 points.

Taking advantage of the intermission, the audience hurriedly exercised their muscles and bones, some went to replenish water, and some went to release water.

Of course, there are also Tie Hanhan like Robert Dozier, who is drooling and staring at the cheerleaders dancing with their thighs exposed.

Dorsey and Rose chat about the game on the way to the bathroom.

"It was a fierce fight!" Rose praised.

"Cut, it's just pecking at each other!"

Dorsey curled his lips in disdain, completely forgetting that one of the two teams became the champion in his previous life.

"Who do you think will win?"

"It must be Kansas. My ex is so jealous when we meet each other!"

At the door of the toilet, they met UCLA's leading combination: Westbrook and Kevin Love.

"Hi!" The two parties simply greeted each other.

However, when passing by, Dorsey suddenly clenched his fists and made a back and forth motion towards Love.

"Kevin, did you just shoot again?"

Le Fu was taken aback, and he was not polite. He followed Dorsey's appearance, but copied the same action to his mouth.

"Joy, just keep talking!"

"Hand puncher!"

"Mouth cannon king!"

……

Intermission is over.

In less than 10 seconds after the start of the second half, "Super Mario" Chalmers used a tough breakthrough layup to create a 2+1.Proclaim that your uncle is still your uncle!
The score was stretched to 20 points again!
But soon, Hansbrough also made a strong layup and returned a 2+1.

This round seems to be the epitome of the whole game, the two sides will not give in to each other.

At this time, Danny Green suddenly stood up and quietly stole several three-pointers in succession.

比分不知不觉间被拉到了54:42，只差了是12分！而时间还有14分58秒！
The Kansasian, who saw the situation was not good, quickly called a timeout.

Coach Williams wanted to hug Green and give him a few kisses. Being good at psychological work, he changed his harshness in the first half and began to focus on encouragement and praise.

Concentration comes first!Under the flicker of Williams, North Carolina's morale was greatly boosted. After the timeout, Ellington and Hansbrough made consecutive mid-range shots and layups, and they scored 8 points in a row!
The score was narrowed to only 4 points!
Rose in the stands smiled and said: "Joy, it seems that you guessed wrong! Now the momentum is on North Carolina's side!"

Dorsey looked calm, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, look down slowly!"

What he was thinking at this time was that if he bets in real time now, he would definitely be able to make a fortune at the current dynamic odds.

However, gambling is such a thing, small bets are fun, big bets are chaotic.I have already accumulated the original funds, and I will never touch this thing again!

The field entered a timeout again, but this time it was not a timeout that a certain party wanted, but a TV timeout.

As it turned out, this ad break saved Kansas' life.

Morale is such a thing, once it is full of energy, it will decline again, and it will be exhausted three times!

After two timeout interruptions, North Carolina's chicken blood was almost exhausted.

Like that shiver, the ultimate orgasm is followed by nothingness.

At the end of the timeout, Darnell Jackson scored a layup, and Kansas stabilized their morale.

After that, Kansas played steadily and played a slow-paced positional battle with North Carolina, wearing down the opponent's patience a little bit.

And North Carolina gradually became anxious, and the hand feeling also cooled down. A few reluctant long-range shots had no effect except to hand over the ball to the opponent.

With 6 minutes left in the game, the score was unknowingly extended to 9 points!
The situation in North Carolina is already in jeopardy, and their mentality has changed from anxiety to fear. They who once grasped the straw, no longer have the mentality of being barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. The mentality of worrying about gain and loss will make them lose everything.

This time, no matter how much coach Williams roared and encouraged him, it was useless.

With 4 minutes and 30 seconds left in the game, Jackson scored a two-handed dunk in an alley-oop. Kansas once again led 73-61 by 11 points, and North Carolina's mentality completely collapsed.

In the last 2 minutes and 20 seconds of the game, Brandon Rush scored a layup with the ball. Kansas was far ahead of North Carolina 78-61, and the game completely entered garbage time.

In the end, the score was fixed at 84:66, Kansas eliminated North Carolina, and the former revenged the current one!
"Joy, your guess is really accurate!" Rose praised.

Rose smiled. This game was very exciting, but it's a pity that he knew the result from the beginning.

It's like reading a wonderful suspense detective novel, only to turn over the first page, and you see someone circled a name and wrote: This is the murderer!
Speaking of it, although Dorsey's time travel has changed him a lot and affected some people around him, but in the big picture, nothing has changed yet.

The first major event he hopes to change in his life is the ownership of the NCAA championship in the 2007-2008 season.

However, to do this, you must first step over the mountain of UCLA!
