"Hahahahaha, good job!" Seeing Wayne knocking Sean May to the ground ferociously, Larry Bird clapped his hands happily.

Sure enough, what you can't get will always cause turmoil.

The Trail Blazers really got a big deal!

What a pity, what a pity.

At the same time, Reggie Miller, who was resting at home, also watched the live broadcast of the game.

Thinking of Bird's near-obsession with the Chinese during this period... Miller quickly changed the channel!

I'm really scared, I'm scared when I see it.

Now whenever you chat with Bird, he will talk to you about the Chinese within five sentences.

"By the way, did you watch Wei's game yesterday?"

"Wei's performance was great, didn't you watch it yesterday?"

"What do you think of that kid? Can he make a name for himself in the NBA?"

"If he comes to the team, what role do you think he will play?"

Reggie Miller's ears could feel calluses, which even made him a little afraid of chatting with Bird during this period.

So, as soon as he saw Wayne's picture, Miller quickly changed the channel.

It was really a psychological shadow caused by Bird.

But then again, what kind of magical power does this guy have that actually charmed Bird like that?

Reggie Miller remembered watching the Cowboys game with Bird, and he thought the Chinese guy was pretty good.

The most important thing is that the Pacers, who now aim to win the championship, don't really need a rookie who needs to be cultivated for a long time.

Compared to rookies, combat ability is more important to them.

Miller shook his head and hoped that Bird wouldn't forget their current goal.

Back at the Seattle Center Arena, after Wayne challenged Sean May, Graham easily won the fight with McCants.

Not to mention Graham's height advantage, his athletic ability is also very impressive, North Carolina has no chance of winning.

After winning the basketball, Graham quickly transferred the ball and Tony Allen advanced with the ball.

Facing Fei Dun's blockage, Teacher Tony scored the ball in a fierce confrontation.

As a tank-type defender, Fei Dun's confrontation ability has always been one of his selling points.

Even if you go against the second position, you won't suffer too much.

But Teacher Tony was stunned to withstand Fei Dun's impact and ensured that his movements were not deformed in the air.

Wayne's blocking and Tony's scoring made Roy Williams a little nervous.

He found that even though he was very careful, he still underestimated the strength of the dark horse of Ohio State.

He thought that Sean May would be invincible on the offensive end, but he took a big risk.

He originally thought that Tony Allen was no longer a big threat in games like March Madness, but he made this counterattack.

The tough style of the cowboys destined this to be a journey on the edge of a knife.

The probability of both parties hitting rock bottom is 50-50.

"Be patient and pay attention to pressing defense!" Roy Williams immediately shouted to the players on the court.

It's okay to suffer a little loss at the beginning, at least it will let the boys know how difficult this game is.

It is better to make mistakes now than at the critical moment.

In the last game, when Illinois found that they couldn't defend the opponent at critical moments, they actually lost.

Roy Williams will never allow his team to make such a mistake.

Sure enough, after encountering the desperate resistance of the Cowboys, North Carolina's mentality changed.

They become more cautious and focused.

In this round, North Carolina did not let Sean May continue to play in the low post. Instead, the two guards played wonderful cooperation.

Fatton crushed Lucas to break through, and McCants ran outside the three-point line to find an opening.

Finally, a classic connection was completed between the two defenders. Fatton broke through and scored the ball. McCants immediately took action after receiving the ball and shot Tony in the face.

Three points into the net, North Carolina's firepower is still strong!

McCants averaged 20 points per game in the regular season this season and is the Atlantic Coast Conference's scoring leader.

He has a variety of offensive methods and can do anything with his jump shot. The most exciting thing is that at 1.83 meters tall, he actually has a good back shot!

In one game, he hit 6 consecutive three-pointers. If he was allowed to hit the ball, it would be equivalent to starting the hell difficulty.

McCants' goal marked North Carolina's official entry into the game.

They now know that interior isolation alone is not enough to defeat the Cowboys, and must be supplemented by other ways to attack.

After showing off its muscles on the offensive end, North Carolina immediately gave the Cowboys a huge obstacle on the defensive end.

This time, Lucas' pass to Wayne was intercepted by McCants who suddenly jumped out.

The ball was intercepted cleanly, giving Wayne no chance to fight for it.

McCants held the ball in his hands and went straight to the fast break.

Roy Williams is a coach who places great emphasis on transition offense. In the teams he leads, transition offense is deeply rooted in the players' bones.

The first thing everyone thinks about after getting the ball is to rush forward!

Of course, North Carolina is not a pure run-and-gun team like Illinois. Because even if they fall into position, they still have low-post nuclear weapons like Sean May.

After the ball was intercepted, Wayne's first reaction was of course to pursue the defense immediately. But no matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than a 1.83 meter small defender.

In the end, McCants ended the offense with a civilian layup!

They succeeded one after another and regained the initiative.

"North Carolina fans are excited. This team has shown their strong strength!"

Amid the shouts of the commentator, Michael Jordan also stood up and applauded.

On the basketball court, hard power is more important than anything else.

No matter if you are a white horse or a black horse, if you are weak, you will be killed!

"Oh my, that's too careless."

After McCants completed the attack, John Lucas raised his hands in self-reproach.

In the past, it was basically impossible to make a mistake with a ball like the one just now.

But facing North Carolina, you can't even pass the ball too casually.

On the other side, North Carolina's three stars all fist bumped each other.

This game is starting to get better!

Therefore, the Cowboys, who usually dominate others, experienced the bitter feeling of being dominated by others tonight.

North Carolina seems to have countless ways to end the offense. When they are blocked on the outside, Sean May can open up the situation inside.

Sean May has become very cautious since Wayne took a risk in the opening game.

As an insider with solid low-post skills, it is not easy for Wayne to risk the cautious Sean May.

Even though this guy weighs over 200 pounds, his little steps in the low position are really good.

Of course, he is not invincible. Even if he is not risked, he is not guaranteed to score every goal.

And when Sean May couldn't continue to score, Fatton and McCants would step up again.

This makes it almost impossible for North Carolina's offense to stall.

4 points, 7 points, 9 points...

North Carolina widened the point difference little by little, and all the Ohio State fans were in a low mood.

Seeing that the point difference was about to reach double digits, he was about to be beaten to death by North Carolina.

But at this critical moment, the cowboy struck a blow that brought him back to life.

In the eighth minute of the first half, Wayne received the basketball from the mid-range and immediately turned around to face the frame and shoot.

At this time, Sean, who got rid of the ball screen, was rushing towards Wayne with all his strength. As a result, he couldn't stop the car and directly knocked down Wayne after he took off.

As for whether he really couldn't stop or wanted to stop, that's unclear.

Unfortunately, Wayne had already completed his attack the moment he was knocked away.

So, when Wayne fell to the ground, the basketball just hit the net.

The shot was made, and Wayne had to add a penalty!

Sean's rough foul didn't change anything.
