Chapter 74
There is a blue in this world called the North Carolina Blue; there is a team called the North Carolina Blue Devils.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the first public university in American history. Over the past 200 years, it has developed into a huge university system, now with 16 campuses and nearly 20 students.

In the United States, the University of North Carolina system and the University of California system are known as the best university systems.

Of course, as a person who pays attention to basketball, North Carolina's excellent research ability and excellent teaching quality are second.His great reputation in the NCAA is the focus of attention.

Although the University of North Carolina is known to basketball fans as the alma mater of Michael Jordan, the "God of Basketball", in fact, its own outstanding strength is the biggest reason.The North Carolina Tar Heels are considered one of the most successful basketball teams in NCAA history.It is the second school to win more than 2000 games after the University of Kentucky.From the 1910-1911 season to the present, the team's winning percentage is close to 74%, ranking second among NCAA first-tier teams.

建队100年来9次杀入NCAA决赛，总计获得5次NCAA锦标赛冠军（1957、1982、1993、2005、2009）、17次大西洋海岸联盟锦标赛冠军、27次大西洋海岸联盟常规赛冠军以及在大西洋海岸赛区创纪录的17次全国常规赛冠军。很多NBA的一流球星都是出自这所学校，除了超级巨星比如迈克尔·乔丹（Michael Jordan）之外，诸如杰里·斯塔克豪斯（Jerry Stackhouse）、拉希德-华莱士也是北卡走出去的。

This is a stronger team than Kansas.UCLA's opponent in the penultimate game in 2015 was North Carolina.

An Luo has never felt that the current UCLA is worse than any NCAA team, and he himself will not be worse than others.The last time he lost to Kansas, he was just a substitute player.

But now it seems that An Luo and his UCLA are not in a good situation.

The score on the court was 43:32, with the visiting team North Carolina ahead.At this time, there are still 20 seconds before the end of the first half.

An Luo was already a little tired, this was the first time he felt tired in a game.He has played 16 minutes and rested for more than 3 minutes in the entire first half.No way, Alford needs An Luo to score, and he needs to limit the opponent's second position.

On the last attack, the ball belongs to UCLA.They hope to draw the score closer.

Because there was no timeout, Alford could only shout loudly on the sidelines: "Give the basketball! Give the basketball!"

It can be seen that he is a little impatient.After all, losing at home is a very embarrassing thing, not to mention the duel between UCLA and North Carolina.And keeping the point difference in single digits, the pressure in the second half will be much less.

Holiday knew what he had to do.He has the ball and presses time a meter in front of midfield.He needs a chance to pass the ball to An Luo. North Carolina is tightly surrounded by An Luo, but he believes that An Luo can make the ball.

At this time, An Luo had already started running.In this game, North Carolina showed a unique defensive strategy.Instead of double-teaming An Luo, they changed the target of the double-teaming to Holiday, and only sent a single defensive soldier to follow An Luo.

This defensive strategy does work.It can be seen from the recent games that blindly restricting An Luo is not very effective, and it will empty other people.Judging from An Luo's technical characteristics, he scores much more off the ball than with the ball.And without the ball, someone needs to feed him the ball.

Therefore, An Luo played very uncomfortable in this game, and Holiday was even more uncomfortable.North Carolina cut off the connection between Holiday and An Luo, which is equivalent to breaking UCLA's arm.That's why UCLA is so far behind.

Holiday moved with 10 seconds left.He took possession of the ball and rushed to the penalty area, looking like he wanted to do it himself.Alex pulled out and set him a good screen, keeping the North Carolina player solidly out of the three-point line.Seeing that Holiday is about to take off, the North Carolina players have no time to think about it, they just want to guard against him.At this time, almost no one paid attention to An Luo who slipped to the bottom corner again.

But Holiday saw An Luo, but he still made a layup, and after attracting everyone's attention, he threw the ball to An Luo in the air.

"To suffer!"

At this time, everyone understood that this fake move had fooled everyone.

But it was too late.After receiving the ball, An Luo threw the ball directly, as if what he received was not a basketball but a bomb.

As the number on the timer reset to zero, the basketball fell into the net bag.

"Yes!" An Luo roared, then ran towards Holiday, and collided passionately with him in the air.

Three points at the buzzer!

"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Three points at the buzzer, Oh My God! From our Chinese guy An~Luo~"

The DJ on the scene yelled excitedly, and he is also a fanatical fan of UCLA.No matter how his own players performed, he would shout hysterically every game.What's more, the ball played by Holiday and An Luo is so incredible.

The audience at the scene also started chattering, suppressing the entire half court, and this goal really relieved their anger.Although it is not the buzzer-beater of the lore game, it is still exciting.The whole scene boiled up, as if it was Chinese New Year, everyone was very happy.

"His three-pointer means that UCLA still has the hope of winning! If I were his opponent, I would never leave him half a step."

"Hey man! You know what, like that probably won't work! Our Ann just needs a little bit of space and time, three points are that easy. Lol..."

"It would be perfect if Ann could hit the basket directly!"

"That's true! But with Holiday here, his off-the-ball is also very incomprehensible!"

……

It wasn't until the cheerleaders came on stage that An Luo and the others stopped chasing and fighting.After all, they are still young men, and they can't restrain the waves in their hearts.In fact, if they were placed at other times, such as when UCLA leads by a large score, they would not be so excited.It was different this time, being suppressed and beaten by others all the time, and the atmosphere was extremely suppressed, it was finally a sigh of relief.

But this goal still can't change UCLA's current disadvantaged situation, they are still 8 points behind North Carolina.The good thing is that the fighting spirit of the players has not dropped, and everyone is suffocating that energy, especially An Luo.His attitude towards victory is always very persistent.

Then there is Alford, who has never cared more about winning or losing than he does now.During the intermission, he organized the players together and held a meeting with a serious face.
