Chapter 104: The Big Heart
Coach K reached out and called a timeout.
UConn's current offensive is like a wave, wave after wave, leaving Duke a little overwhelmed.
Coming back from a timeout, Walker has a chance to add a penalty.
In the face of the boos of more than 40,000 Duke fans in the audience, Walker took a deep breath and then steadily hit the free throw.
68 to 69!
With Walker's free throw, Kangda completed a shocking scoring performance, chasing the 20-point difference to only 1 point!
The game, and the last 2 minutes!
All the fans at the scene couldn't help but take deep breaths to adjust.
UConn fans are a little better, they have already experienced one when the team played North Carolina before.
But the little hearts of Duke fans are a little unbearable, you must know that Duke's previous games were all big wins, and he was completely at ease.
But now, they haven't even figured out why the 20-point difference is only 1 point in the blink of an eye.
If the halftime lead of 20 points can still be lost, this game can really go down in school history, just like Sean Battier led the team to a 22-point comeback against the University of Maryland.
The difference is that Battier created the greatest comeback in NCAA history, which was glory, and this time, it was a shame.
Duke's offense, Owen did not attack Tang Tian again, but hoisted the ball to Singel after signaling to pull away.
Coach K's tactical system is to create misalignment, Owen is misplaced against Tang Tian, and Singler is also misplaced against Lamb.
Singler is very capable of being off the ball and as a team, but he is not a player who is good at attacking independently, and after getting the ball, he chose to go straight to Lamb and go straight to the front.
Lamb jumped up for the distraction.
"Bang!"
Singler's shot missed.
Oriacchi jammed Plumlee for a defensive rebound.
Now, Kangda has a chance to overtake the score!
In the last minute and a half, even with the previous experience of playing North Carolina, UConn fans felt a little shortness of breath.
"Defend! Defend! ”
"Come on! Connecticut Huskies! ”
Fans on both sides shouted at each other in the air, and the environment was extremely noisy.
The pressure on the players on the pitch is beyond imagination.
Tang Tian put up a block for Walker, Walker misplaced against Zingler, and made a quick stop after a series of cross steps.
"Bang!"
The ball also missed.
However, Oriarchie grabbed the offensive rebound at this time, made a foul on Plumlee, and got two free throws!
"Bang! Bang! ”
Fans can feel their hearts beating at a rapid pace, and this game really needs a strong enough fast-acting pill!
Two free throws from Oriarchie.
The sound of on-site interference was deafening, and the ears of the players on the field were buzzing.
Oriarchie took a deep breath, aimed at the frame, and shot.
"Bang!"
The first free throw missed.
There was a burst of cheers from the audience.
"It's okay." Walker and Lamb stepped forward to give Oreyage a high-five, also loudly encouraging him.
Oriarchie's second free throw opportunity, Tang Tian and Kelly were fiercely entangled under the basket at this time.
Oriarch's second free throw.
"Bang!"
Still missed.
But at this moment, Kelly shook his hand and threw Tang Tian out of the field.
The referee's whistle blows, signaling a foul on Kelly!
This was Duke's 7th foul in the second half, and according to the rules, Tang Tian had a 1+1 free throw opportunity.
There were boos at the scene, and Coach K also roared loudly on the sidelines.
The referee technically suspended the game and went to the sidelines to watch the video replay.
Tang Tian was also pulled up from the ground by Walker and Lamb at this time, and he unconsciously shook his hand.
The moment he was thrown out just now, he remembered that he seemed to have the skill of a fake actor, and no one said that this could only be used in defense!
The referee watched the video replay over and over again, Kelly was not good at confrontation, his card position was not good, Tang Tian rushed forward half-round, and finally pushed Tang Tian out of the court.
It's just that Tang Tian's actions after being thrown out are a bit exaggerated, and there is a bit of an acting component.
But that doesn't matter anymore, the foul does exist, and Tang Tian is on the free throw line.
Tang Tian's free throw opportunity, and the boos of Duke fans poured in like a tide.
Players on both sides of the basket are scrambling for the card position.
Tang Tian completely ignored all the interference from the outside world, and his heart was as calm as a pool of autumn water.
"Huh!"
Tang Tian's first penalty was steadily punished.
The scene was booed.
Kangda tied the score.
"One more, one more." Ollie muttered to himself on the sidelines that he looked like the most nervous one.
Because of a free throw, Tang Tian got a second chance to make a free throw.
"Huh!"
It's still a steady bag.
Adjust your breathing, Tang Tian's calm heart is completely undisturbed by the outside world!
"He's got a super, super, big, big heart, and he's a killer." Miller couldn't help but sigh after reading it.
"Just like you." Brin on the side spoke.
Miller burst out laughing.
Miller moments, his legacy in the NBA, and he's also a player with a super big heart.
Coach K didn't call a timeout because Duke's timeout was the last one left.
"Carey! Carey! He just yelled at Owen as he made tactical gestures.
The last 45 seconds.
Irving dribbled to the front court and reached out directly to beckon Plumlee to come out and block the pick-and-roll.
Zingler, Smith and Kelly all pulled away from beyond the three-point line.
The three three-pointers all shot over 45%, and Kang Da didn't dare to cover them.
Irving took advantage of the pick-and-roll to change direction on the inside and outside, grabbed the gap before Oriage pounced, and pulled out his shot directly outside the three-point line.
A simple tactic that couldn't be simpler.
Oriage struggled to pounce on the interference, and the bruises on his face were already exhausted.
Irving's three-pointer after a drift in the air.
Super difficult shots.
The ball flew over Oriage's head and towards the basket.
Fans on both sides held their breath at this point.
"Bang!"
The ball smashed directly into the rebound, and it was obvious that in order to avoid Oriage's block, and because of the use of backwards, Owen obviously increased the intensity when he threw the ball.
After the ball bounces off the rebound, it bounces straight into the net pocket!
Owen's high-difficulty three-pointer, in!
72 to 70!
Duke overtook the score!
“Holy.shit! He's so in! Barkley was stunned.
Irving's three-point shot is simply against the sky!
"It's a semi-final game that will go down in history, regardless of the final result." Mike Brin also sighed.
"Yes, both sides deserved to win, and this is the best game of the year in the NCAA, there is no one." Kenny Smith chimed in.
20 points of reversal, big heart hit two free throws, bigger heart high difficulty three-point quasi-lore.
This is really not an ordinary NCAA-level game, this is completely a fairy fight, and the viewing is even better than most NBA games!
