Before Barkley finished speaking, the arena was already filled with cheers from University of Texas fans.

Deafening, overwhelming.

Durant's ball was like Cupid's arrow piercing their hearts.

At this moment, they looked at Durant with only one feeling in their eyes:

You are the most handsome in the world!

After Durant landed, he waved his fist excitedly, then turned around and gave Lin Ying a high-five above his head.

Now, he has a chance to help the University of Texas overtake the score!

Self reached out and called a timeout!

At this time, it would be inappropriate not to call a timeout to interrupt the offensive momentum of the University of Texas!

After he finished shouting, he reached out and touched his chin hard.

It can be seen that he is in a very bad mood now.

He predicted the tactical intentions of the University of Texas early, but it turned out that Durant scored 10 points in a row over Kansas!

At this moment, he also deeply understood those words:

If you have talent, you can really do whatever you want!

Of course, there is the real power of Triangle Tactics 2.0 version.

It's not like Barkley said it's just giving the ball to one person to take a shot.

If it were that simple, someone would have put it on the stage of history long before Phil Jackson.

Back for now, Durant's additional penalty.

Kansas fans tried their best to create all kinds of noise interference.

Durant adjusted his breathing, shook his shoulders habitually, and then took the free throw.

"Whoosh!"

There is no suspense, the basketball hits the net hollowly.

41 to 40!

The scene erupted in cheers from University of Texas fans.

After a long period of chasing points, they finally overtook the score!

Now, it's time to win the game in one go!

"Defend! Defend!"

Loud shouts rang out again in the arena.

But before the shouts could stop, Chalmers took advantage of Wright's screen and hit a rebound jumper near the free throw line.

The University of Kansas takes the lead again!

Like Ford at Texas, Chalmers left the NCAA with a string of records.

He is also an NCAA legend!

Self walked to the sidelines at this time, where he kept directing the defensive positioning of the players.

Durant catches the ball in the low post and attacks in the same way.

This time his shot failed.

However, Lin Ying rushed into the paint early and jumped high to grab the offensive rebound. Then he got up again and caused a foul on Wright's beater!

He can do more than just pass the ball and make three-pointers!!

Lin Ying went to the free throw line, and the Kansas fans on one side once again made noises of interference.

Moreover, these disturbances were also mixed with whistles and some insulting words.

These are the same as when the two teams met for the first time in Lawrence.

Lin Ying adjusted his breathing and made two free throws, helping the University of Texas take the lead again!

His mentality is much better than last time.

After seeing Lin Ying make two free throws, Self couldn't help but shook his head.

Looking at the situation in detail, Self's current reaction shows that the game has completely heated up.

The game trend in the second half of the second quarter also illustrates this point.

The last time the two teams played against each other, Barnes and Self refused to give way to each other.

But this time, the anxious situation prevented them from easily taking the bench!

No one knows whether the one or two minutes of substitution will directly lead to a collapse.

As a result, the two teams started to fight frequently due to their physical fitness until the last few minutes of the game.

With 40 seconds left in the game, Texas led Kansas by 1 point, 60-59.

One point can be ignored, but it can also determine the outcome!

Kansas called their final timeout.

At this time, not only the fans on both sides, but also Barkley and Smith in the commentary box became a little nervous.

From the previous commentary, we can see that their main purpose of coming here tonight is Durant.

I didn't expect to see such a wonderful game.

For them, this game is worth it no matter who wins in the end.

Of course, as a commentator, guessing the outcome is indispensable at this time.

"I think the University of Texas can win because they have Durant, the 'Light of Texas.'"

Buckley spoke first this time.

And by the way, he also gave Durant a nickname.

Durant has scored 37 points so far and scored 29 points in the second half, accounting for almost all of Texas' second-half scoring.

Although the shooting percentage dropped in the last few minutes due to physical problems, the efficiency of 12 of 17 shots in the second half was simply explosive.

In a game where one goal determines the outcome, a team with a superstar is obviously more likely to win.

"I think Kansas has a better chance. The more times this happens, the more it tests the team's execution and discipline."

It's certainly not possible for Smith to support the same team as Barkley.

Otherwise... where would the program effect come from?

But what he said is not unreasonable. Execution and discipline directly determine whether offensive opportunities can be created at critical moments.

Although the University of Texas has Durant, if Durant cannot catch the ball or is double-teamed after catching the ball, he will be ineffective.

Back from timeout, Kansas' offense.

At this time, Chalmers controlled the ball and moved forward.

Although there are still 40 seconds left in the game, the NCAA attacks every 35 seconds. If nothing else, this will be Kansas' last chance to attack tonight.

As the lagging side, they are now under much greater pressure than the University of Texas.

Self stood on the sidelines and rubbed his hands back and forth, an action that comes only after a person is extremely nervous.

Chalmers controlled the time in the frontcourt, and when there were about 20 seconds left in the attack time, he began to organize the attack.

In a double pick-and-roll tactic, Chalmers took some time to get rid of Lin Ying, who was changing defense, and then broke through to the basket and handed the ball to Cowan.

Cowan took the ball and hit the board from close range.

The ball hit the backboard and bounced into the net.

60 to 61!

The University of Kansas takes the lead!

Just like Smith said, Kansas' execution and discipline played a role at critical moments.

Chalmers broke through on the strong side and Wright ran on the weak side. Then the two attracted the defense and gave the ball to Cowan for finishing.

The final finisher was Cowan who had not yet taken a shot in the second half!

If they didn't have confidence in their team's execution ability, most people wouldn't dare to arrange it like this!

The moment the ball went in, Self was the first to excitedly wave his fists and curse words.

This is to let out all the inner tension at once.

This time it was like a ball was kicked, all the pressure was kicked to the University of Texas!

In fact, after Cowan scored the ball, there were already many University of Texas fans on the sidelines unconsciously reaching up and holding their heads.

Heaven and hell, only in a moment.

The University of Texas also called their last timeout.

The LED screen at the scene began to show highlights of Durant's score tonight.

If the team needs a hero tonight, then Durant must be the best choice.

In fact, on the bench of the University of Texas, the focus of Springman's tactical arrangement was how to successfully get the ball to Durant.

As long as the ball is successfully given to Durant, it will be considered a tactical success.

As for whether Durant can make the shot, it depends on God's will.

After the tactics were laid out, Springman patted Durant on the shoulder meaningfully before going on the court.

This kind of life-or-death ball will cause unprecedented pressure no matter who is placed on it.

Especially if the team loses the game due to a failed buzzer-beater, that kind of pressure will last for a long time, maybe even a lifetime.

But if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.

This is what Durant must bear.

Durant nodded vigorously, his eyes firm.

In order to avenge Kansas, the efforts he has put in in the past two months are unimaginable.

Now there is an opportunity to complete this revenge with his own hands, and he will definitely not want to miss it.

At the same time, Lin Ying looked at the field thoughtfully.

When Durant walked over, he saw Lin Ying in a daze and bumped his shoulder.

"What's wrong?"

"fine."

Lin Ying turned around and saw Durant shaking his head.

It was not appropriate to talk to Durant when he was in a daze.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

Durant thought he was nervous and said with a smile.

Lin Ying nodded.

Back from timeout, the last 9 seconds of the game.

The University of Texas' frontcourt.

The arena was quiet for the first time.

There are only a few seconds left on the clock, and the score difference on the court is still 1 point. Unless there is a foul penalty, this ball will basically determine the outcome.

At this time, the fans on both sides were extremely nervous and could not shout.

The person serving the ball on the sidelines is Lin Ying.

It seems that the arrangement at the University of Texas is to send the ball directly to Durant.

This is also the safest way when time is short.

"beep!"

The referee's whistle sounded and the University of Texas started running.

Durant was not arranged to directly take the ball, but asked Augustin to run out first and make a wave of fake catches.

Then, in the second wave, Durant used Wendell's pick-and-roll from the other sideline to the top of the arc and beyond the three-point line!

Lin Ying's pass was also passed ahead of time, and Durant successfully received the ball from outside the three-point line!

I have to say that Springman's tactical arrangements were quite good.

First, he feinted a shot, and then arranged a three-point tactic when he was 1 point behind.

This tactical arrangement was something Self had not expected.

but!

Durant didn't get a direct shot!

Although Self failed to successfully judge the tactics of the University of Texas, he guessed that the University of Texas would definitely let Durant take action in the end.

So Cowan, who was switching defense, didn't care about the others at all and chased Durant directly to the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Time begins to pass.

Durant didn't hesitate, and a wave of "small versus big" three-threat fake shots passed Kawan directly.

Although his current ball-holding ability is definitely not good, it is enough to hit Cowan out of position.

It's just that when he took the time to get past Cowan, the defenses on both wings had already shrunk towards him.

At this moment, "Du Yougravity" appeared.

As long as he takes another step forward, he will be greeted by at least two double-teams.

He now has two options, either find an opportunity to distribute the ball to other teammates who have better opportunities, or just shoot it directly.

He chose the latter.

First, he is really not good at passing the ball now, and the probability of a passing error is significantly greater than the probability of a good pass.

Second, and more importantly, he is ready to bear the pressure!

Not to shirk the blame, this is what he must do as the core and captain of the team!

Before Kansas' double-team could form, Durant made an emergency stop and took a mid-range shot!

This scene caused Barkley to salivate in the commentary box.

Just like turning around and leaning back before, this kind of emergency stop in a high-speed breakthrough is not something a big man close to 2.10 meters can do under normal circumstances.

Durant completely subverted their understanding of big men.

Just after Durant took off, the spotlight flashed on the sidelines.

Behind the scenes, reporters are ready to record this classic moment.

There is no focus game in the NBA today. Durant's crazy performance tonight has already allowed him to break his NCAA single-game scoring record.

After the game, I'm afraid big media like TNT and ESPN will rush to report on this game.

At that time, this final decisive moment will become the accompanying picture they want!

At this moment, a hand broke into the sight of these long guns and cannons.

Julian Wright!

The University of Texas players weren't the only ones sweating it out this past summer!

His ability to make significant progress in the new season is also due to hard training.

Durant's talent was shown off before, and this time he also showed off his talent.

His movement speed, wingspan and jumping are also among the top among NCAA big men!

Durant didn't expect Wright to catch up so quickly, so he was forced to raise his release point in the air.

This allowed him to avoid Wright's block, but interference was inevitable.

The ball passed Wright's fingertips and spun toward the basket.

At this moment, everything around him seemed to be still, except for the spinning ball in the air that caught everyone's attention.

After passing the highest point, the ball begins to fall toward the basket.

As the ball got closer and closer to the basket, the emotions of the fans on the sidelines also experienced two completely opposite changes.

The eyes of University of Texas fans are despair, while the eyes of Kansas fans are excitement!

After Durant's shot was interfered by Wright, the shot was obviously short!

Victory, in the end, belongs to the people of Kansas!

"Dang!"

The ball finally hit the front edge of the basket and popped out!

Durant's buzzer-beating shot didn't go in!

Barnes had lowered his head and did not dare to look.

But at this moment, Springman's eyes burst with light.

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of commotion at the scene.

Because the moment the basketball hit the basket and came out, a figure quickly jumped up and clicked towards the pop-up ball.

This timing cannot be said to be very timely, I can only say... just right!

After being clicked, the ball seemed to have been re-entered into instructions and flew straight towards the basket.

At this moment, the emotions of the fans on both sides of the stadium were directly interchanged.

The Kansas fans looked desperate, and the University of Texas fans had flushed faces and climaxed on the spot!

"Whoosh!"

The ball was tipped into the basket!

It wasn't until after the ball went in that the fans noticed who was completing the tip-in.
Chapter completed!
