The final was held in the largest basketball stadium with tens of thousands of spectators.
The Garonne University basketball team was already waiting in the lounge. The room was very quiet, and everyone was resting in their own comfortable way.
Bai Luoyu leaned on Gu Nianchen, and listening to Gu Nianchen's breathing was the best way for him to relax.
The cheerleaders outside stopped their performance and the host's voice rang out.
"Welcome to the audience in person and in front of the screen to watch the finals of the 24th National College Basketball League. The two teams facing off are the previous champion, Jialong University, and the previous runner-up, Lingchuan University. Audiences who are familiar with the two teams know the strength and origins of the two teams, so today's game will definitely be very exciting. Let's wait and see! Now, please allow the city's highest administrative chief, Chief Bai Li, to give us a speech!" After the host finished speaking, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
Bai Luoyu also straightened up suddenly, and the other players also opened their eyes and looked at Bai Luoyu.
Now that the next general election is approaching, Bai Luoyu's father, Li Wen's father, and several other candidates are very busy.
Bai Luoyu never expected that his father would come.
"I'm here to watch the game today as a parent. I hope all the players will give us a wonderful game. Come on!" Father Bai's speech was simple, but it touched Bai Luoyu's heart deeply.
[He said he came as a parent!!!]
"Did you hear that? Your father came here specially to see you. He loves you so much. Come on!" Gu Nianchen hugged Bai Luoyu tightly.
"Yeah!" Bai Luoyu raised his head and tried hard to hold back his tears. Now was not the time to cry. He wanted to let his father see how outstanding he was.
The tournament staff had already notified the players to enter the stadium. Kangbei called all the players together and they shook hands as usual.
"come on!"
Kangbei took the lead and walked into the stadium one by one. The moment Jialong University appeared, the whole audience shouted the slogan "Jallon must win".
All the team members have firm eyes and the belief that they will win is in everyone's heart!
Bai Luoyu couldn't help but glance at the podium. He saw his father looking at him, and his heart suddenly calmed down.
"Let's go, get on the court!" Cang Bei shouted, and the starting five players of the Garlon basketball team came on the court.
The cheers from the stands never stopped, and each team took turns shouting slogans.
After the five people came on stage, they saluted in turn towards the stands in four directions to express their gratitude to the audience.
Then the players from both teams saluted each other, and Kangbei and the opposing center stood at the center line.
"The game is about to begin. Old rivals are extremely jealous of each other and the atmosphere is full of tension! Let's look forward to the referee's announcement!" The host was also trying to stir up the atmosphere in the audience.
In the first quarter, Jialong University relied on Kangbei's rebounding advantage to temporarily lead 21:18.
During the break, Kangbei substituted Lu Ye to save his energy and arranged tactics.
In the second quarter, Jialong University was hit by several defensive counterattacks by the opponent and made two three-pointers, and the score was overtaken by 3 points by the opponent. Kangbei came on the court three minutes before the end of the first half. The score between the two sides was very close, and the first half ended with 46:45.
"It was a really wonderful match. The technical and tactical levels of the players on both sides can be said to have reached professional standards. As spectators, we are happy. Now the players on both sides are taking a halftime break. Please enjoy the wonderful performance of the cheerleaders." The host was also showing his professionalism.
In the lounge, the players were sweating profusely.
"Brother Bei, should we go ahead, otherwise I'm afraid you won't have enough energy to keep up!" Li Wen asked.
The entire defense and offense in the first half were dominated by him. He was the most active runner in the whole game, so his physical energy consumption was also huge.
"No, they know our style of play too well. If we are exposed too early, they will be on guard in the fourth quarter and it will be difficult for us to beat them." Kangbei explained the tactical plan.
"Brother Bei, I will play in the third quarter. They will also change substitutes when you rest. Don't worry, I just studied it carefully after coming off the court. I know how to play against their backup center." Lu Ye had the shortest playing time, and the others took turns to rest for more than 5 minutes.
"Okay, the third quarter is up to you!" Kang Bei patted Lu Ye's shoulder.
Gu Nianchen and Bai Luoyu also looked at each other, and it was up to them to perform next.
At the start of the second half, the opponent called for a substitution after seeing that Kang Bei did not come on the court.
Lu Ye had long noticed that the opponent's center substitute was emotionally unstable and easily irritated.
So Lu Ye kept defending closely. Although his methods were not regretful, they were a bit dirty, which caused the other party to swear several times, but Lu Ye ignored him.
The scores of both sides were intertwined, and the third quarter was about to end. Lu Ye found an opportunity and directly blocked the opponent.
This time the opponent finally exploded, and while Lu Ye was still unable to stand firmly, he pushed him hard, and Lu Ye was pushed to the ground.
Players from both teams rushed over, and a serious conflict was prevented from breaking out thanks to the joint efforts of several referees.
The audience also booed angrily!
The third quarter ended quickly, and the final score was tied at 61:61.
-------------------------------------
"Next is the exciting fourth quarter. We see that both Jialong University and Lingchuan University have replaced their starting players at the same time. The champion of the game will be decided in about ten minutes. Let's wait and see!" The host's voice was so excited that it rose eight octaves!
Gu Nianchen and Bai Luoyu looked at each other, and Bai Luoyu looked at the podium again. He saw his father looking at him with a smile. He also smiled at his father, and then looked at the opposite side with a firm look.
Bai Luoyu played the least amount of time in the entire game because he was the key to the fourth quarter.
