I didn't want to fly away

Chapter 44 NCAA Championship! (For collection, for follow-up)
51 to 56, 34 seconds before the end of the first half.

The Bruins lead the Oil Heels by 5 points.

That's how effective home field advantage is.

Even though Lawson had returned to the field as early as 4 minutes ago, both Ellington and Danny Green had been replaced off the field to rest, and Hansbrough was also troubled by fouls and could only stand by off the field.

However, right now the ball is in the hands of the Oil Heels.

The Oil Heels served from the baseline and had every chance to use up the remaining 34 seconds of the first half.

If the Oil Heels run out of time and score the last goal of the first half, the point difference will be reduced to within three points.

At the beginning of the second half, a jump ball will be performed again.

Under normal circumstances, there is no need for a jump ball. The side that loses the jump ball in the first half will automatically get the ball in the second half.

But in this game, there were three scrambles in the first half, and the Bruins won the ball twice, which means that the two teams had a balanced ball in the first half.

Then, for the sake of fairness, before the start of the second half, the ownership of the ball will be re-determined by a jump ball.

Otherwise, the Bruins got the ball directly in the second half, and the Oil Heels skipped the ball in the first half.

If the Oil Heels got the ball, that would be outrageous.The first attack in the first half and the second half was the same team. Is this treating the other team as human beings?
Well, the popular science ends here.

The ball will be re-jumped in the second half, then the problem arises again.

Because the oil heels are tall inside, the probability of getting the ball is much higher than that of the Bruins.

Once the Oil Heels successfully jump to get the ball in the second half and complete the offense, the point difference will be within 1 point, which will completely wipe out the efforts of the Bruins in the first half.

This kind of scene is the last thing the Bruins want to see.

Therefore, the last 34 seconds of the first half are extremely critical.

Lu Yi took the initiative to defend Lawson, trying to complete a steal.

If the steal is successful, it is expected to exaggerate the point difference to more than 7 points.

The Bruins will continue to maintain their advantage in the second half, and with the help of home court advantage, the chances of winning the final will become very high.

It is also because Frazier changed to the 2nd position after Ellington went down, and Collison's size is not too disadvantageous to defend against Frazier, so Lu Yi and Collison swapped marking players, there is no problem at all.

Louie quickly found himself in front of Lawson, who was solid and quick with the ball.

However, Lu Yi's steals are notorious. When Lawson met Lu Yi, he could only change the rhythm and speed up to make an emergency stop, and then look for opportunities to change direction, so as not to give Lu Yi a chance to approach.

Pressed by Luigi, Lawson wasted some time in the backcourt, taking almost seven seconds to dribble the ball across half court.

But after reaching the front court, Lu Yi still followed closely at close range, putting enough pressure on the defense.

Lawson didn't dare to stop the ball, so he could only keep moving to press time.

Just when there were 10 seconds left in the game, Lu Yi made a sudden move.

Lawson deserves to drop the crotch back and pass the ball immediately.

Lu Yi missed the ball, Frazier rushed to the basket after receiving the ball, but was stopped by Soros, and Collison quickly double-teamed.

In a panic, Frazier passed the ball to small forward Dion Thompson, who was unprepared and lost the ball all at once.

Lu Yi has already returned to the defense and stepped forward to grab the ball. Dion Sampson threw himself on the ground in order to get the ball back, but he still couldn't catch the ball. .

At this time, Lawson also stopped behind Lu Yi, and when he saw Lu Yi start dribbling, he immediately reached out for the ball.

The ball touches, but Louie gets it back in the air again.

The scene was very chaotic, and the game time continued to walk. When Lu Yi got rid of Lawson and broke through the frontcourt with the ball, there were only 5 seconds left in the game time.

In less than 2 seconds, Lu Yi returned to the frontcourt.

Ke Lawson was not slow and returned to the backcourt.In order to prevent Lu Yi from shooting a three-pointer, he fouled Lu Yi directly.

Lu Yi made fouls very successfully before, and the number of fouls has accumulated 13 times. This time, Lu Yi took two free throws.

Lu Yi slowly adjusted his free throws and made the first free throw steadily.

But looking at the game time, with 3.2 seconds left, he suddenly thought of the unsuccessful trick of Yao Ming and McGrady.

Lu Yi doesn't have to miss free throws, but if he can win better, why not try it?

Anyway, the Bruins still took the lead.

Lu Yi will use the next ball to try to get more points.

Lu Yi will also use the next goal to use up all the time in the first half and not give the Oil Heels any chance to shoot a three-pointer at the buzzer.

Sure enough, the Oil Heels returned to Ellington with Danny Green and Hansbrough after Lue made his first free throw.

That way, the Oil Heels will have three shooters who can shoot [-]-pointers.

In addition, the inside line composed of Hansbrough and Ed Davis can also effectively compete for rebounds after the next free throw miss.

The oil heels' arrangement with this timeout was perfect, but Lu Yi's shot selection exceeded everyone's expectations.

Lu Yi deliberately lowered the arc of his shot, and the ball didn't want to go towards the basket at first sight.

"Rebound, rebound, rebound!"

As soon as Lu Yi made a shot, the three of the Oil Heels under the basket directly forced into the penalty area, occupying a favorable rebounding position under the basket.

But it's a pity that Lu Yi hit the ball too squarely. Lu Yi just took a step forward and received a rebound.

Then dribble out quickly, turn around, glance at the basket, look at the timer before the defensive player pounces, then take off, shoot, and press the wrist.

brush--

Another three-pointer, hollow into the net.

Meanwhile, the first half ran out.

"Ah, Lu Yi, you are so handsome!"

"Oh my god, Lu Yi, what did you do? You deliberately missed the second free throw, deliberately grabbed this offensive rebound, and deliberately made a three-pointer at the buzzer!"

"Lu Yi, are you a god?"

Obviously it was only the first half, and the game hadn't been decided yet.After seeing Lu Yi's miraculous operation, the Bruins players on the field rushed towards Lu Yi frantically.

Fortunately, Lu Yi was agile and dodged in a flash, so he was not hit by his own people.

"Calm down, there is still the second half! After the second half, we will not be too late." Lu Yi said with a smile.

The difference of five points was because Lu Yi made a steal, a free throw, and a three-pointer at the buzzer, which instantly expanded to 9 points. Lu Yi also admired himself for being able to do this.

"Labor and capital are too strong!"

"Oh, by the way, how far am I from 40 points?"

After Lu Yi scored 32 points, he didn't ask for the ball much in singles.

It took almost three or four minutes before the ball was hit, and the threat continued.

He made a three-pointer before, and Lu Yi estimated that he had already scored 39 points.

Back on the bench, as expected, an assistant coach took out the data board. Lu Yi had already scored 39 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals in the first half.

In addition to scoring, Lu Yi has very few by-products, but the flaws are not concealed, as long as Lu Yi scores well enough.

You know, basketball is a scoring game from start to finish.

"We were nine points ahead and it was all because Luigi was good enough.

Lu Yi put the ball that should be the lore in the second half in the first half.

So, you can't wait for Lu Yi to save you any longer.

You must know that we are players on the same team, we are the UCLA Bruins!
We have to be more aggressive in the second half!We have to scare them. "

Holland was surprised by Lu Yi's performance in the first half, and knew that Lu Yi would not be able to score another 39 points in the second half.

So if you want to win, you must ask other players to perform better.

In fact, with Lu Yi on the court, the Bruins always have more opportunities on the offensive end than the Oil Heels.

Even though the Bruins' players except for Lu Yi are not as good as the Oil Heels' year-on-year, they still have a great chance to win.

However, as it turned out, early in the first half, Luigi had killed the game.

The difference of 9 points is not big, but they are as strong as the North Carolina Oil Heels, and they were all overwhelmed by Lu Yi's performance.

In the second half, whether it was Lawson or Ellington, the state declined seriously, with no touch, and frequent iron strikes.

Instead, backup small forward Dion Sampson made the only three-pointer for the Oil Heels in the second half.

In fact, the oil heels did not miss three-pointers, and the oil heels also knew that three-pointers were chasing separators, but if they failed to make three-pointers, it was a waste of the ball and gave the Bruins a chance to counterattack.

The Bruins played steadily, leading by 16 points at one point.

But later, the Bruins took the initiative to choose to lower the tempo, and the Oil Heels quickly adjusted their strategy and replaced Hansbrough to play inside.

As Lu Yi made another kill and quickly beat Hansbrough completely in 6 minutes, the Bruins locked in the victory in advance with 8 minutes before the end of the game.

However, Holland still sailed carefully and continued to keep Lu Yi on the court.

Holland specifically told Lu Yi not to shoot jump shots next, but to ensure his own safety and not to give any chance to be stepped on.

As long as the team maintains a healthy scoring lead, Lui can just catch and shoot threes.

This situation did not occur, and the opportunity for the Oil Heels to reduce the score also did not occur until the game time was completely zero.

79 to 93, the Bruins won by 14 points and won the final victory of this year's NCAA finals.

And Lu Yi, who made 29 of 18 shots, 8 of 5 three-pointers, 12 of 10 free throws and scored 51 points, has completely become the biggest winner of the NCAA tournament.
