The God of Basketball

The head coach, Mr. Ben Holland, walked to the sidelines and signaled Jordan Farmar to lower the tempo and win steadily.

However, Farmer is clearly on the ups and downs.

Having been eaten continuously on both ends of the offense and defense, he is now like a bull whose tail has been stepped on, and he can't wait to bump back.

At this time, he didn't know that even if he contradicted back, the NBA's impression of him would be greatly reduced: the NBA doesn't like to see this kind of guard who is easy to get hot.

What's more, he doesn't have much confrontational advantage against Li Zhen now.

He was able to get whatever he wanted from Li Zhen before because his physical strength had an absolute advantage. But now... Although there is still a gap, it is not enough to support Farmar to do whatever he wants.

puff! puff!

After two consecutive hits to no avail, Farmar quickly changed direction and tried to complete the assault directly, but was once again shrouded by Li Chen's wide wingspan. He could only step back quickly after accelerating a breakthrough, and then took off to shoot... …boom!

Basketball strikes iron.

"Based on Bruce's physical condition, as long as he can keep up with strength, agility, coordination and explosive power, he can become a defensive champion in the No. 1 position. Look at his long arms, look at his giant Palm, it's completely the configuration of a top defensive player."

Jason Kidd was full of praise.

Kobe Bryant nodded. He not only agreed that Li Zhen's long arms and giant palms are very suitable for defense. At the same time, I also found that Li Zhen's positioning is also very smart. Although his lateral movement ability is weak and he is not fast in tracking footsteps... But the excellent positioning selection is the main reason why Farmar failed to directly break through this time.

In other words, Li Zhen's basic conditions and brain are top-notch. But... Lack of strength, explosive power, coordination, agility... and other talent points.

These things can be improved the day after tomorrow, but I just don't know how much it can be improved.

This is why many teams wait and see.

At the same time, Scott forcibly hit the rebound on Baias's head, and then handed it to Li Zhen again.

When Li Zhen brought the basketball to the frontcourt, the head coach on the sidelines quickly made defensive adjustments. He asked Afflalo, the top defensive expert, to mark Li Zhen.

In an instant, Li Zhen felt overwhelming defensive pressure.

Afflalo's height and wingspan are at the level of an authentic small forward, and his defensive experience is quite rich. He neither presses forward nor relaxes his vigilance.

Just standing in front of Li Zhen like this is already a natural barrier!

Li Zhen tried several assaults, but they were all blocked... His weak explosive power made it impossible for him to split the defense in a flash.

At this time, Scott rushed out to cover for him.

Under the cover of Scott, Li Zhen's speed advantage finally came into play in the second step. He quickly cut into the three-point line and let the chasing Efflalo fall behind by nearly one step.

Afflalo is actually a little puzzled about this: Why does a person with such terrible explosiveness go so fast after pulling away?

At this moment, Bruce Lee had already rushed into the free throw line. Facing the oncoming help defender, he paused for a while to attract Bias to go up further, and then hit the basketball directly to the ground... bang ! The basketball quickly rebounded to the depths of the penalty area. Frank Benson received the basketball and faced the Stanford small forward's supplementary defense. Relying on his physical advantage, he easily put the basketball into the basket.

Swish!

73:78.

Only 5 points away.

There are still more than three minutes in the game.

The Bruins league requested a timeout, and coach Ben Holland felt personally threatened. If this game is eliminated by Stanford's counterattack, then the whole will be disgraced.

Serious adjustments must be made.

Legendary alumnus Reggie Miller praised Ben Holland's timeout on TV: "This timing is very good. I believe that as long as the Bruins wake up and advance the game at the right rhythm,

Stanford has absolutely no chance of overtaking. The real strength between the two teams is not a level at all. "

On this point, it is actually a consensus of everyone.

Before the game, most people thought it would be an easy win.

Judging from the current situation, Stanford has even been considered super strong.

But Li Zhen didn't think so. He convened the players on the bench for the first time, and everyone gathered together.

He told everyone in a firm voice: "The purpose of our coming here is by no means to witness the Bruins break into the Elite Eight again, and then raise our hands high to accept the cheers of the audience."

"A lot of people are saying, we've done miracles, it's amazing that we've gotten where we are...but!"

"Fuck him! Why can't we go further?"

"There are still 3 minutes left, and we are only 5 points behind. Why should we give up the place in the quarter-finals? Just because this is their home court? Just because they are traditional giants?"

"Trust me, guys! As long as we unite, defend well, and run accurately. I will definitely lead everyone to the quarterfinals. The crimson storm will never stop today."

"I hope that twenty years from now, when you look back on your college years, and talk about today's game, you will still be... full of enthusiasm and tears in your eyes!"

Bruce Lee roared like a tiger in everyone's heart.

Standing by the side, Jamilin saw with his own eyes that the expressions on the faces of all the players, even TJ Wharton, were becoming resolute, and their fists were also clenched tightly.

As Li Zhen said, why should the game be handed over? Why can't we continue to perform miracles? This is... the greatest moment of our college career!

"Put your hands up."

"ONE-TWO-THREE, FIGHTING!!"

When Bruce Lee took the lead in chanting the slogan, the momentum displayed by the Stanford Crimson Team was like a dead soldier on the battlefield!

The fighting spirit was completely ignited by Li Zhen.

Jamilin murmured in his heart: Bruce has changed, he is no longer the invisible man sitting silently at the end of the bench, he has not only displayed his strength, but also displayed his charisma as a leader. Everyone is impressed by him.

He is right, everything has to be fought for by oneself. It is difficult for the golden mean to survive in American basketball.

Jamilin felt something in his heart. In fact, his basketball life has unknowingly embarked on another path.

...

ESPN's camera has been aimed at Stanford's bench, so Bruce's words were broadcast in front of audiences across the United States.

When Li Zhen yelled out the phrase "I hope that in twenty years' time, when everyone looks back on their college years, they will still be... full of enthusiasm and tears in their eyes when talking about today's game!" The flames were ignited irresistibly.

Many middle-aged men even began to think of a certain sports game in middle school that decided the outcome in one fell swoop...Look at my fat and sagging belly now, what a wonderful time it was, how many people shouted my name, how many girls passed it on to me The little note really makes people's blood boil when they think of it, and tears fill their eyes!

As a result, the mentality of watching the game subconsciously changed from neutral or inclined to support Stanford.

They can empathize. For this second-rate team that is not optimistic, today is indeed the most glorious moment of their basketball career.

Reggie Miller rubbed his eyelids in the live broadcast room, and he looked at his excited partner Hollinger beside him.

Then he muttered: So, we just became the kind of foil team in the movie plot that was killed by the weak and the strong?
