Chapter 67 Destiny Showdown, Meeting Again Six Years Later

This Terrapin team is the strongest team since Gary Williams led the team. Several starters on the field have the strength to enter the NBA, which is no worse than UCLA. Although Li Lei's edge over UCLA surpassed all other NCAA players, his teammates did not perform as well as expected. Since the Terrapin team entered the NCAA Championship, the five players have performed very well.

UCLA's proud dual point guard tactics will be tested in this game, because the Terrapins are playing dual point guards. The combination of Steve Bireck and Juan Dixon is a bit worse than Jay Williams and Chris Duhon in the backcourt of the NCAA, but it is definitely better than the combination of Lee Lei and Watson, because Watson's height is flawed. As far as it is concerned, it is indeed uncomfortable.

Steve Lavin has crossed out dozens of tactics. In the next game against the Maryland Terrapins, Steve Lavin, like Gary Williams, has ambitions. He wants to step on his opponent's corpse and enter the final semifinals.

But from the current point of view, it is not so easy to achieve this goal. Except for Blake, the Terrapins also have Terrence Molins, Chris Wilcox, Lonnie Baxter and others.Steve LaVine, who has led several NCAA championships, knows very well that this lineup has a star lineup, and one star can overwhelm people. However, if UCLA wants to win, it can only depend on Li Lei's performance. He is the biggest variable on the field.

NCAA's annual awards projects have entered the review stage before. Li Lei entered the Na Smith Award, the John Wooden Award, and the best players in the United States, but this is not proud, because the other seven teams in the [-]th of the eighth are also selected. As for those guys who go home to fish, they are abandoned by the judges. This is very different from the past. Each of the previous selections, many Diaoyu Lang of the top [-] was nominated, and even some people won the prize.

This year, perhaps because of Li Lei, a little butterfly, those guys who went fishing early lost the chance to continue the selection.

Although it was only nominated, the Bruins are excited enough. From Max Johnson to Ed O'Bannon, no one in UCLA has been nominated for those two heavyweight awards.

The two UCLA celebrities also used this to make a wave of presence, saying that Li Lei’s playing looks like their nonsense. These two guys are small forwards in their early years. Max Johnson is a weakened version of Larry Bird. Yes, and he also said that Li Lei was like him, but I really don't know if he blacked Li Lei or praised Li Lei.

However, the presence of these two guys made the tense preparation atmosphere on UCLA a lot easier. On March 3, it was still the Vienna Arena.

In this game, CBS did not let the UCLA star continue to serve as the commentator, because Bill Wharton, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and others went to commentate other games, and this game also invited a star. This star is not from UCLA, but from Maryland.

For this person, hard secrets are certainly no strangers, because the opponent's yin and yang contract broke out, making hard special a first-round guy like McGrady. Although the playoffs are extremely fierce, he is still pressed on the floor.

It’s already 01, and this yin-yang contract broke out just like in the previous life. Joe Smith was traded to the Pistons this season, and was soon cut off by Joe Dumars.

During the layoff period, Joe Smith worked in various other teams for a few days, and was soon cut off again. I don’t know if he has relatives on the CBS side. This time, he actually got a position as a commentator for the NCAA Championships, although he only commented for a few games.

The person who is partnering with Joe Smith is Gus Johnson, who is also a very famous mouth in the American sports world.

"Hey, long time no see, Joe, you look much better, does this game remind you of anything?"

Taking advantage of the fact that the game hadn't started, Gus Johnson teased Joe Smith, an honest man. Joe Smith was indeed an honest man. If he was dishonest, why would he hire a guy like Fagan as his agent?

Nima, even though Joe Smith is an honest man, he still couldn't help being angry when he faced Gus Johnson. How could he forget that in this venue, UCLA eliminated Maryland and then won the championship trophy that year. Before he knew it, five years had passed, and he changed from the proud man of the past to the tragic man of today. Time has really changed.

Joe Smith was brought into endless memory by Gus Johnson's words. Gus Johnson did not interrupt the memory of the other party, because players from both sides had already played.

In this game, Steve LaVine still sent Watson as the starter. Anyway, the expected goal has been completed, so let's have a manly contest with the opponent, double point guards vs. double point guards.

In Maryland, Gary Williams saw Steve LaVine's lineup and smiled. This guy is really not Jim Harrick. If it was the latter, he would definitely go to Kapono instead of Watson. After all, Watson's height does not have any advantage in the matchup with Dixon and Blake. Assistants are always assistants. Six years ago, Steve LaVine was Jim Harrick's assistant. The venue, the same opponent, but the result is definitely different.

Maryland's starting lineup is really strong. The lineup of Blake, Dixon, Terrence Molins, Lonnie Baxter and Chris Wilcox. The five players in this lineup are all at the NBA level. The sports organization rated them as 8 points, which is really low.
