Chapter 19 Final Four

Oklahoma State University, their most famous player is Tony Allen. He has strong technical comprehensive defensive ability but only average scoring ability. This is also the epitome of Oklahoma State University.

At the beginning of the game, the offensive efficiency of both sides was very low.

But unlike Oklahoma State University, Syracuse has players like Anthony and Lehi who can create their own scoring opportunities.

When Li Hai didn't play, the opponent's defense could still limit Anthony, but when it was Li Hai's turn to play and Syracuse University accelerated, their attacking opportunities came out.

After taking the lead in this game, the situation became more obvious. Oklahoma State University did not have the ability to score continuously. At 71:56, Syracuse University once again firmly accepted the victory.

After entering the top [-], the Chinese media, who didn't pay much attention to the NCAA, suddenly discovered that there was actually a Chinese student on the Syracuse University Orange Team. Although he was only the sixth member of the team, the team had a good record. The sporadic Chinese faces in the NCAA did not make it to the final stage.

After a little investigation, Li Hai also showed his face in domestic high school leagues, and he was very strong. At that time, domestic professional clubs were interested in him, but he did not expect that he had already made a name for himself in American schools.

As Yao Ming entered the NBA as the No. [-] pick and was getting better and better, the enthusiasm for basketball in China increased. After hearing the news about Li Hai, some reporters who were covering NBA games in the United States immediately flew over.

In the face of media reporters, Li Hai has the experience of his previous life, so he is not afraid at all.

He played basketball for a short time in his life, and basically people in the circle didn't know much about him. In order to impress others, he didn't make any tweaks at all when answering questions, which can be said to be relatively high-profile.

"I like basketball. I applied to Syracuse University to improve my basketball level. After continuous efforts, I stood on the NCAA battlefield."

"I have very good teammates and the ability to help the team. This year's champion is undoubtedly Syracuse University. You can wait and see."

The reporters who came to interview were also taken aback. This young man is full of confidence, which is very rare. If Syracuse University can really win the NCAA championship, it is worth reporting.

Being interviewed is a small episode, and the opponent Auburn University on March 3 is the highlight.

After successfully winning two games in the final stage, the characteristics of Syracuse University have been played out. What makes Coach Baihan a little worried is that Anthony has not been as hot as he was in the regular season after being closely guarded. Fortunately, Lee This surprise is in the sea.

When Li Hai wanted to play more roles, Bo Yihan was still a little worried, but now he is very happy about this change. Li Hai's regularity can make the team more stable, but if it breaks out, the team will have the opportunity to go further.

Syracuse University didn't make it to the finals last year, and now it's Sweet Sixteen, just explode as much as you want.

In terms of book strength, Syracuse University is stronger than the opponent, but in terms of outside attack power alone, Auburn University is not weak.

At the beginning of the game, the leader of Auburn University, Marquis Daniels, broke out. He performed well in the first two games. In this game, he felt hot and scored 6 points in a row. The team was caught off guard.

In order to stabilize the situation, Anthony rushed inside desperately, but he didn't let the opponent open the score, but Syracuse University has been pressed and beaten, and he felt a little short of breath.

Even though Coach Boyehan kept his composure all the time, he couldn't help calling out to Li Hai, "It won't be a problem for you to mark Marquis Daniels later."

At this stage, everyone wanted to go further, and Coach Boyehan was a little more nervous than before.

That’s right, against Orb University, Syracuse University has an advantage in height, and Anthony’s shooting has some problems. Boyhan simply pushed Anthony to the 4th position. This was also a tactic that appeared in training. It's just because of Li Hai's existence that he seldom appears in official competitions.

Now that there is a single arrow in Auburn University, it should be the performance of Li Hai, who is the most desperate defensive player in the team.

Li Hai has the most experience in dealing with single arrows, and he defends like brown sugar, constantly consuming the opponent.

Daniels still felt hot, but to get rid of Li Hai's defense, he had to spend at least several times more energy, and his accuracy began to drop after coming and going.

In the second half, Syracuse University tied the score in less than 5 minutes. After the depressed feeling disappeared, Anthony hit a few good shots in a row and immediately reversed the situation on the court.

Daniels is already in the last semester of college, and he is already too old. If he wants to enter the NBA, he must have an even more amazing performance. He doesn't want to lose the game like this.

Facing Li Hai's defense, he was exhausted, but Li Hai saw the raging fighting spirit in the opponent's eyes, and Li Hai's blood also boiled, fighting, fighting.

He was completely immersed in the defense, his eyes locked on Daniels, regardless of whether the opponent had the ball or not, until the referee's final whistle sounded.

It was only at this time that Li Hai realized that he stayed on the field until the last minute of the game.

At 79:75, Syracuse University made another victory and became a member of the Elite Eight.

In this game, Coach Bo Yihan finally fully affirmed Li Hai's role. He is a player worthy of relying on both offense and defense.

Coach Boyehan doesn't have much time to be happy. The next game will be on the 30th. The preparations he has to do will leave him with no time to sleep.

The opponent is Oklahoma State University. Syracuse University is a dark horse this year, and so is Oklahoma State University.

The opposing team doesn't have any star players. They are a typical team team. During the game, they defended together like other team teams. This style of play allowed them to enter the quarterfinals. It doesn't work anymore.

At this time, Anthony finally adjusted, relying on his personal ability to tear apart the opponent's exceptionally active defense. At this time, there is no need for a sixth man like Li Hai to do more. 63:47, Anthony Scored one-third of the team's points.

Syracuse University thus entered the Final Four, the biggest stage of the NCAA.

In a few days, the entire United States will stare at them and cheer for them. Even a star player like Anthony in the team will be very excited, let alone Li Hai, an international student.

In the past few days of training, everyone's blood is boiling.

"Champions, champions, we're going to get champions."
