Starting with 2006

Chapter 16 final?One touch!
More than 2 people in the audience were staring at the bouncing ball. The players from Marquette University, who were already preparing to celebrate, saw the falling ball miraculously fell straight into the basket, and their expressions froze instantly.

"The Wake Forest Devil Deacon team won the final victory of the game with a miraculous lore!!"

Barkley growled.

Everyone flocked to Jann frantically, and Wake Forest fans celebrated wildly!

Gao Tian looked at Zhan En who was at a loss, and patted his head with a smile: "I knew you could get in!"

Novak looked at the Wake Forest players who were celebrating with a lonely look. Has his college ended like this?
He looked at Wade and his teammates who came to comfort him, and said to them, "Let's go! This place belongs to them."

The moment he turned around, he took a deep look at Gao Tian who was surrounded.

Coach Prosser hugged Gao Tian heavily. He thought Gao Tian would take the last shot, but he didn't expect that it would be handed over to Zhan En to complete the redemption shot.

It's not that he doesn't have confidence, but that he is willing to trust his teammates and let teammates with better opportunities to shoot the last ball!
It's really hard to imagine that this is something a kid under the age of 20 can do. He is a natural team leader!

When they celebrated the end and returned to school, thousands of Wake Forest fans stood at the school gate and shouted the names of Gao Tian and Zhan En. Don't let them feel excited, some old fans even burst into tears.

It has been 44 years since the team entered the semi-finals last time. During these 44 years, they have changed from children who were taken by their fathers to watch games with their sons and grandchildren. Time flies and the years change. Only the deep love for the Wake Forest Devil Deacon team will always be in my heart!
Seeing the turbulent crowd around the bus, Prosser had to hold a megaphone and shout to them: "Dear Wake Forest fans, I know you are very excited and want to celebrate, and we want to, but There will be games in two days, the semi-finals! Come and cheer us on that day, even to the finals, everyone believes in us, we will not disappoint everyone's expectations, and when we win the championship, we will celebrate wildly! And now Our players need to rest, please leave first please?"

Hearing these words, the fanatical fans around reluctantly left.

The Wake Forest players on the bus also felt the enthusiasm in their hearts. Looking at their excited eyes, Gao Tian couldn't help but silently swear in his heart that he would definitely bring a championship to their lovely and enthusiastic fans!
Gao Tian returned to his accommodation, thinking about today's game, he felt that his team had a big problem, and the internal problem was too big, but it was not impossible to solve it!
The Marquette University I faced this time had a super shooter, so I couldn't assist in the defense, and the inside would be blown up. But although the next opponent also has a tall and skilled center, they don't have a super shooter!

So no matter what happens next, the fight will not be so miserable. The biggest stumbling block has passed, and this is the source of my confidence.

Today is the last day of March, and the NCAA Tournament semifinal Wake Forest Devil Deacons vs. UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) begins.

Gao Tian was the first to start the game. He scored three consecutive three-pointers and a dunk, which directly stopped UCLA. But as a veteran school, they naturally have their own way. Jordan Fama is UCLA's strongest scorer. Naturally, they did their part, and the team cooperated internally and externally, and slowly caught up.

At the end of the first half, the two sides drew at 40:40. At the beginning of the second half, the situation changed suddenly. Zhan En made the first effort, making 5 consecutive shots from inside and outside, and instantly opened up the point difference. Gao Tian continued on the defensive end. The steals and blocks sent out made Jordan Fama fearful. With [-] minutes before the end of the game, Wake Forest had already led by as much as [-] points. Slowly, the UCLA players knew that the victory was hopeless. There was also no fighting spirit. In the end, Wake Forest defeated UCLA to create team history and reached the NCAA finals for the first time!

When the news reached North Carolina, the entire Wake Forest school cheered, and tens of thousands of fans gathered to celebrate the team's new history.

The final opponent of the Wake Forest Devil Deacons also came out. It is the University of Florida team that reached the final for the second time. Although it is not a strong team, what is worrying is that their inside line is very tough. Joakim Noah or the comprehensive offense and defense Al Horford will cause huge troubles for the weak Wake Forest Devil Deacon team inside.

In fact, many American experts are not optimistic about the Wake Forest Devil Deacon team, because their offense is really good, but the defense can win the game, and the University of Florida is just the opposite of Wake Forest, their defense is very good, although outside shooting Not very good, but who can guarantee that his hand feel will not go wrong in high-intensity games?
And outside shooting is to rely on the touch to eat, and a solid defense is far more reliable than a seemingly gorgeous offense!

Just as the whole of the United States was looking down, Gao Tian and his teammates came to the stage of the NCAA finals, watching the roaring crowd, and the famous stars appearing on the camera, Jordan, Magician, Bird , Kobe, and their Wake Forest seniors, Duncan and Paul, and his compatriot Yao, when he saw the Bush family also came to the scene, Gao Tian thought to himself, is this the highest stage of college basketball?

Gao Tian understands that this battle can only be won but not lost, whether it is for himself, his teammates, fans who are full of excitement and glory, or compatriots from afar who are full of expectations for him.

"Dear viewers, this is the 2006 NCAA Finals broadcast on CCTV. I am Director Zhang, and I am Director Xu next to you. Next, we will explain this much-anticipated battle for everyone. What about Wake Forest? , I think everyone has a certain understanding, and then everyone is ready to wait for the start of the big battle."

Hundreds of thousands or even millions of domestic fans are watching the TV, waiting for the start of the battle.

"Hey Brother Li, do you think Wake Forest can win?"

"I don't know! The experts have already said that Wake Forest's internal line has been restrained too much, it's probably not enough."

"What the experts say is like fart, believe them? I think Wake Forest will definitely win, after all, Gao Tian is there!"

Amid the discussions between the two, the game is about to begin.

Gao Tian looked at the many familiar faces at the University of Florida in front of him. He knew that this game was not easy to play. In the future, these people in the NBA will play quite well. Their current strength is not bad, but he will never admit defeat. It is my last NCAA game, and I will definitely go all out!
