At this time, some reporters also noticed the arrival of the University of Texas, but they were all filming on the sidelines with cameras.

They knew Durant wouldn't be interviewed, so they focused their coverage more on pictures than words.

After a while, the interview with Auden ended.

Oden smiled and waved goodbye to the reporters, and then prepared to leave with his teammates.

It was at this time that Lin Ying observed Oden up close for the first time.

Big, really big.

This body shape is completely different from what you see in the live broadcast of the game.

Comparing Hibbert, although he may be shorter in height, he is one size bigger.

But that's right, Hibbert is 2.18 meters tall and weighs 113 kilograms, but Oden, who is 2.13 meters tall, weighs 129 kilograms!

And it's different from Pittman's, because he's wearing training clothes, and his bulging muscles have a very strong visual impact.

Lin Ying has never met O'Neal in real life, but at this moment he feels that Oden is O'Neal!

Some people will say Yao Ming, but Yao Ming is more tall.

To use a metaphor, Yao Ming is the mountain and Oden is the tower.

Speaking of which, in addition to saying that Oden is a combination of Chamberlain and Russell, the media also said that he is the next O'Neal.

Because Oden is not only strong, his flexibility and speed are very good compared to other insiders.

This is exactly what O'Neal is unique to.

After looking back, Lin Ying breathed out unconsciously.

This is who he will be defending one-on-one next game...

"Shadow, do you want me to go and tell Rick that we should still defend the zone?"

Durant didn't know when he arrived at Lin Ying's side. When he saw Oden, he swallowed and said.

"No, just right."

Auden indeed brought him a great visual impact, but it also ignited more of his fighting spirit.

Because of Durant's presence, it is almost impossible for him and DiVincenzo to score 31 points in the final.

But if he can guard against Oden like this, or at least limit him, then his ranking will jump up even further!

"I'm going to wear him down offensively."

Durant nodded after hearing this, and then spoke.

Just like when he played against the University of Kansas, he would not let Lin Ying fight alone.

…

Durant PK Oden, the battle for the No. 2 pick!

The third stage of the game has not yet started, but the game between the University of Texas and Ohio State University has been exaggerated by the media into the battle of the century.

In terms of the attention of the NCAA, the attention attracted by this wave is comparable to the encounter between No. 23 and No. 24 in the finals in history.

The only difference is that that didn't happen in the end, and this will happen in a few days!

And because the NBA has reached the end of the season at this time, everyone is waiting for the playoffs to start.

Therefore, describing this game as dominating the screen is not an exaggeration at all.

On the TNT show, Barkley and Kenny Smith also had a heated argument over who would win between Durant and Oden.

The domestic side is not idle either.

It's just that when it comes to media promotion, it's naturally impossible to imitate what the United States does.

There is a picture at the beginning, and the content is all edited.

This picture is the scene where Lin Ying and Oden are on the left and right, and then split in the middle.

"The strongest inside matchup in the NCAA", "2007 universe-level inside collision"...

Well, a reporter from a certain wave said yyds.

In fact, speaking of it, this is the first time that the domestic media has had such formal contact with the NCAA.

Including the NCAA's blowout number of fans, it is very similar to when Yao Ming entered the NBA.

It is no exaggeration to say that in their hearts, Lin Ying is the "next Yao Ming" in the NCAA league.

This is a treatment that Yi Jianlian has never received.

You must know that in terms of draft predictions, Yi Jianlian has already entered the top ten, while Lin Ying has just reached the end of the first round.

This is a good thing, but not entirely a good thing.

Because just as difficulties and opportunities coexist, so do popularity and pressure.

Historically, Yi Jianlian was highly anticipated by everyone before he entered the NBA, but because of the comparison with Yao Ming, many fans wanted to kill him.

If Lin Ying really loses this "showdown", a "Guda" emperor will be born in a certain wave in minutes.

…

In the blink of an eye, three days later, the media had built up momentum and the fans were full of expectations.

The third stage of the "Crazy Three" competition has finally officially started!

Both semifinals are played on the same day.

The game between the University of Florida and the University of Oregon is in the front, and the game between the University of Texas and Ohio State University is in the back.

Because TNT is a live broadcaster, the ratings are also the highest of the year.

Barkley and Kenny Smith went to Atlanta to broadcast the University of Florida game this time.

The University of Oregon is led by Aaron Brooks, who averaged 17.7 points and 4.3 assists per game in the regular season.

After entering the Crazy Three, his score increased to 18.3 points.

Lin Ying should be very familiar with him. In his third year in the NBA, he averaged nearly 20 points per game and was elected the NBA's Most Improved Player.

To paraphrase the words of fans at the time, if it weren’t for the “curse of the Most Improved Award”…

Because the University of Florida has won consecutive games before, fans also expect the University of Oregon to bring some challenges to the defending champion.

In fact, they did.

Brooks was in hot form in the first half, scoring 20 points and leading his team to a tie with the University of Florida.

But in the second half, the University of Florida's shooters began to show off.

Brewer, Chris Richard, Lee Humphrey, three-pointers one after another.

The University of Oregon was quickly stunned.

Many fans have just realized that this University of Florida team is really stronger than just the twin interior towers!

In the end, the University of Florida defeated the University of Oregon without any blood, 90-77, and easily advanced to the finals.

"There is only one last game left before the University of Florida completes their two consecutive championships!"

The commentator's last words were very exciting.

Since Duke University in 1990-92, no NCAA team has ever completed two consecutive championships!

But now, the University of Florida is infinitely close to this record!

And the key is that so far, no team can even pose a sufficient threat to them!

Even if their hands are cold, even if their opponents explode, they can win easily in the end!

Just, ridiculously strong.

The University of Florida is waiting, and another opponent in the finals will be between the University of Texas and Ohio State University, which is about to start.

Putting aside whether these two teams have the strength to challenge the University of Florida, the duel between Durant and Oden is coming soon!

It's a very real thing. Before the game between the University of Texas and Ohio State University, TNT's ratings surged again.

In China, a certain wave's server crashed before it even started...

Fortunately, amidst the scoldings from the fans, the staff used their prehistoric power to repair it.

It's just that many fans found out that it was stuck.

…

In the players tunnel, the University of Texas players ran out one by one.

Lin Ying and Durant are the last two.

The two clapped their hands and then bumped shoulders.

Then he followed, took a deep breath, and rushed out one after the other.

In the arena, flags are waving, gongs and drums are roaring, and there is a sea of ​​people as far as the eye can see!
Chapter completed!
