Donovan didn't call another timeout.
It's not that he doesn't want to call, but the number of timeouts in the game is limited, and less than three minutes have passed since his last timeout!
At the critical moment, it was Horford who stood up for the University of Florida.
He received Green's breakout ball and hit a mid-range jumper from the high post.
The University of Florida finally broke its long scoring drought!
only……
Looking back, Durant turned around and shot in a single, causing Noah's thug to foul!
Despite the interference of more than 40,000 Florida fans, he steadily hit two free throws.
Just, there is no chance of missing the ball at all!
Seeing Durant's "crazy" performance, Donovan could only shake his head helplessly.
God is wearing jersey No. 35 tonight!
Lin Ying was also excited for Durant.
In this year's draft in history, Oden was selected as the No. 1 pick over Durant.
But the background at that time was that the University of Texas only reached the second round, while Oden led the team to the finals.
And although Ohio State lost in the end, Oden scored 25 points and 12 rebounds.
Coupled with his good popularity among the media, the news post-game that he "defeated Noah and Horford with one hand" went viral on social media.
With his outstanding performance and the praise from the media, there is no doubt that Oden will be selected as the No. 1 pick.
But now history has been changed by the fluttering wings of his butterfly.
Oden didn't make it to the finals, but Durant turned on the "Reaper" mode and killed everyone!
The possibility of the No. 1 pick changing hands is not impossible!
Horford took another shot from the mid-range in the frontcourt.
But this time Lin Ying interfered when he jumped out, and his shot missed the basket.
And the rebound was also grabbed by James.
The University of Florida just broke the scoring drought, but the scoring stopped immediately!
"Come on! Longhorns!"
The Texas fans at the scene were completely excited, and the cheers of nearly 40,000 people resounded throughout the University of Phoenix Stadium.
The ball was in Durant's hands again.
This time Durant even took the initiative to take two steps toward the baseline, completely cutting off Horford's possibility of a double attack.
And when he turned around and looked at Noah, his expression was quite interesting.
The one with a hint of smile is the feeling of eating Noah tonight.
Donovan stood up from the bench again.
If Noah is still beaten by Durant this round, he can only replace Horford to defend, or replace Richard on the court.
Durant faced Noah and faced the step-back jumper.
He was really getting hot, and Noah couldn't even interfere at this time.
"Whoa!"
Basketball, again empty bag!
Du Zilong, seven in and seven out! Seeing success every time!
However, this time, there were no cheers from Texas fans.
Because... Durant fell!
And the next second, the referee's whistle came from the court.
It was Lin Ying and Noah who had a conflict!
Immediately afterwards, people from the University of Texas quickly surrounded Noah.
The scene was very hot, and it looked like the trend of the whole martial arts industry developing.
The referee tried his best to pull Noah out of the crowd, and the situation was brought under control.
If a vicious fight breaks out in the finals broadcast live across the United States, it will be a devastating blow to the NCAA.
However, when Noah was pulled out, his eyebrows were opened by someone unknown, and he was bleeding profusely.
The game entered a technical timeout.
Most fans didn't know what happened just now because they couldn't see it. They all looked at the big LED screen curiously.
Fans who were closer could see it, but because they were just watching the game, they didn't know why Durant fell.
They only saw the conflict between Lin Ying and Noah!
But this is where things get even more confusing.
Because Lin Ying is not the kind of person who takes the initiative to cause trouble, what happened to make him lose his mind like this?
At this time, Durant was helped to the sidelines by the University of Texas players.
A replay of the game before the conflict was also given on site.
When the replay came out, everyone was stunned, and the Texas fans at the scene booed and cursed.
It turns out that Noah stepped on his foot when he was defending just now!
Foot-stepping is the worst behavior in basketball.
The most famous and hated person in the NBA today is Bruce Bowen. His stepping on Carter not only caused Carter to fall from the altar, but also almost destroyed the NBA.
You must know that "UFO" was said by fans to have "saved the ratings" at that time!
And let’s not talk about that far away, let’s just say two years ago.
The SuperSonics team, led by Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis, is strong and easily defeated the Princeton Kings 4-1 in the first round, promising to return to the finals.
However, that was also Bowen's "career series."
He first kicked Ray Allen, who only played 13 minutes in G1.
Ray Allen is lucky enough not to be eliminated, but his partner Lewis is not so lucky.
One kick in G3 directly ended the season, and Ridnour and Radmanovic were also eliminated one after another.
By G6, the Sonics' main rotation was missing several players.
Perhaps only those who watched that series can hate Bowen so much.
So it's not surprising that fans now have conflicts between Lin Yinghui and Noah.
Because everyone knows how good the relationship between Lin Ying and Durant is!
No one can stand it when a friend is stepped on.
And don't say anything intentional or unintentional at this time, Durant's state was explosive and was stepped down.
Just like Pachulia's kick to Leonard in history, and just like the kick Antetokounmpo gave Irving that changed the trend of the series, both unintentional and intentional.
Because they all bring great benefits to their own teams.
Then there is a very interesting thing, because Noah was surrounded in the middle at that time, and there were not so many camera positions in this era, it was impossible to tell who opened the corners of Noah's eyebrows!
This is a bit confusing for the referees. They can't call the University of Texas a collective villain if they can't find out who did it, right?
In the end, they called Donovan over, meaning that Noah's suffering would be in vain.
Donovan wasn't too aggressive, he just had a symbolic argument and walked back to the bench.
This has something to do with the coach's character. When the Thunder led by Donovan were reversed by the Warriors 3-1, he did not think about abolishing Curry.
If it were Vicki, Curry might not even be able to walk out of the arena alive.
Texas' bench.
Barnes is communicating with Durant.
Since the NCAA does not have a team doctor, the extent of the injury and whether or not the player can play can only be determined by the player himself.
This is also the reason why many NBA players suffer so many injuries in college.
During competition, you are secreting a lot of adrenaline and you cannot feel a lot of pain.
There may even be times when you feel like you've been shut down, only to find out after the game is over that you can't do it anymore.
Lin Ying stood aside and looked at Durant with murderous intent in his eyes.
That look was even scarier than when he was dunked by Oden.
He really didn't expect Noah to make such a move.
Because based on his understanding, Noah in history was not a player who would do such a thing.
But this may be just how people behave differently in different environments.
Facing the final championship so close at hand, the historic two consecutive championships, he really wanted to win!
Or maybe because he was shot by Durant and the team failed to defend the title, he couldn't bear the consequences mentally.
It might even be just a case of brain-heat.
But whatever the reason, he did it.
Moreover, Lin Ying's emotions were a bit complicated at the moment.
Just like I thought Durant might change history and become the No. 1 pick because of him.
The fact that he will be kicked off at this time is also related to his appearance.
He is really worried about Durant's condition. If Durant changes his destiny because of this kick, he becomes as injured as Oden.
He will blame himself for the rest of his life.
Now he just hates that he doesn't know how to do some medical work, and that this stupid league doesn't even have a team doctor!
Springman walked up to Lin Ying at this time and wiped the blood stains on his hands with a towel.
If the referee wanted to find someone, the criminal would definitely not be able to escape if he saw the blood on Lin Ying's hands.
After wiping the blood stains, he reached out and patted Lin Ying's shoulder, signaling Lin Ying not to worry too much.
Although he is young, he has worked with Barnes in the NCAA for many years.
So naturally, he has seen a lot of things like stepping on feet and being injured.
He helped Durant get off the field just now, and it didn't look like the situation was too serious.
It’s just that there is a high probability that tonight’s game will not be played.
Playing with injuries can easily cause secondary injuries, which may lead to career-destroying injuries.
At this moment, Durant and Barnes got into an argument.
It turned out that Durant got up and gritted his teeth and took two steps, wanting to continue playing.
But Barnes wouldn't allow it.
At this time, Lin Ying walked to Durant's side.
"Kevin, leave it to me."
Durant was about to speak.
"Believe me."
Lin Ying added another sentence.
Durant finally calmed down at this time.
The words "believe me" have very different meanings to Durant and Lin Ying.
Finally, Durant sat back on the bench. Although he looked very depressed, he could only choose to trust Lin Ying and the other players at this time.
The technical timeout finally ended and the referee gave the final penalty.
Noah received a first-level malice, and no one at Texas was punished.
Even Lin Ying, who initially clashed with Noah, did not receive a technical foul.
This wave of processing can be said to be relatively in place.
Even when Noah was beaten because he couldn't find anyone, no one was caught. This team, the University of Texas, still had an advantage.
But when the University of Texas players came on the court, there was no smile on their faces.
On the contrary, they all exuded a strong murderous aura.
After all, the NCAA is different from the NBA.
Everyone in the NBA has jobs and colleagues, so it’s good to be able to stand out.
For example, when Tracy McGrady was knocked down during the Pistons and no teammates helped him, Kobe Bryant went up to give him a hug. Nick Young fought with his opponent in a 5V1 with the Lakers and no teammates helped... These are not isolated cases.
But NCAA is about classmates and alumni, some of whom have even been together for several years.
That kind of emotion is completely different from the NBA.
Durant was deposed. If the rules allowed it, they would really like to throw the ball and have a good fight with Noah.
A flagrant foul is two free throws.
Originally it was Durant who took the penalty, but he couldn't play, so Barnes designated Randy Williams to take the penalty.
Williams made both free throws steadily.
9 to 24.
Texas still has the ball.
Durant comes off the court, and the University of Texas lets James play four.
Lin Ying took the initiative and played a pick-and-roll without the ball with Barnes. After he switched to Noah, he dropped directly to the low post.
After leaning against Noah, he quickly reached for the ball.
At this time, Noah's eyebrows had been tied with gauze.
Although there is no team doctor, there is still a medical kit.
Although Noah didn't know that his eyebrow corners were given by Lin Ying, he still tried his best to push Lin Ying outward.
And although he has never faced off against Lin Ying on the defensive end, he has watched Lin Ying's game videos frequently.
He was particularly impressed by Lin Ying's low-post dunk on Wright.
So he wouldn't want Lin Ying to catch the ball too close to the basket.
Augustin lobs in.
Because they were afraid of Lin Ying's passing ability, the University of Florida did not dare to double-team.
In other words, they also believe that Noah can guard Lin Ying in a one-on-one round.
Lin Ying started to hit the ball behind his back.
But unlike all the previous rounds, he didn't use footsteps or anything else.
Simply...
Hard chisel.
"boom!"
I'm crazy...
Noah felt his chest being hit hard.
Only then did he realize that Lin Ying was so powerful.
He usually competed against Horford in the University of Florida team games, but just now, he didn't lose to Horford at all!
But before he could think about it, Lin Ying's second blow had already come.
"boom!"
This time he felt a stronger impact.
It was this second blow that brought out his bloody nature.
Do you really treat him like a soft persimmon?
Durant has finished, you continue?
Noah has also begun to increase his intensity.
After all, it is the finals, the biggest stage of the NCAA.
If he is really pushed to the ground and rubbed continuously, his draft stock will drop.
"boom!"
During the third confrontation, the strong impact of the two forces made Noah feel a sharp pain in his chest.
A person's chest can definitely bear less force than what is carried on one's back.
This is also the fundamental reason why Artest, who played as a swingman as a rookie, was able to break Jordan's ribs during training.
Then, before Noah could recover, Lin Ying's fourth impact came.
"boom!"
"Crack!"
This time, he was knocked over directly.
Moreover, there was a sharper pain in his chest than before, and a smell of rust suddenly shot up in his throat.
It’s over, this is... a broken rib!
"Bang!"
The referee didn't blow the whistle, and Lin Ying didn't stop even after knocking Noah over. He turned around and slammed the ball into the basket!
This is a complete catharsis!
Veins popped up on the faces of the Texas fans at the scene.
Lin Ying's response was too tough!
However, while the fans were cheering, Lin Ying knelt down and looked at Noah, and said slowly:
Chapter completed!
