Chapter 84 The Status of North Carolina
But no matter what, Tang Tian asked the two brothers to report their own family and finally distinguished them temporarily.
"We will go and see you guys tonight," Marcus said.
"I look forward to meeting you in the division finals." Markieff continued.
These two brothers felt like they were talking crosstalk.
It is said that there will be special telepathy and tacit understanding between twins, but it seems that it is true.
"So we do," Walker said.
After defeating Arizona, his confidence has soared now.
So what about the death zone, so what about North Carolina Duke? He just wants to defeat them one by one and then win the championship, so that those so-called experts can take a good look. Kang Da is far better than they imagined.
After a few simple greetings, Walker and Tang Tian went to the cashier to pay.
"It would be great if I played Kansas first." Walker couldn't help but speak. Kansas was weaker than North Carolina. If he played Kansas first and then North Carolina, there would be a further transition like he did when he played Arizona.
"Actually, it will be harder for us to fight Kansas than North Carolina." Tang Tian's subsequent words surprised Walker.
"Kansas' inside strength is stronger than North Carolina. Our inside is Alex. If Alex is beaten down, our inside will basically be gone." Tang Tian said.
Walker nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.
What Tang Tian said is the truth. Not to mention playing North Carolina and Kansas, they had played against San Diego State University before. After Ori Archie went down, Kangda would have been completely out of the inside. If it weren't for Mazurke's attack, they would have been eliminated long ago.
"But in fact, whether it is North Carolina or Kansas, we must have absolute advantages." Tang Tian continued.
"Hmm?" Walker looked at Tang Tian in confusion.
"You." Tang Tian said with a smile.
"Marshall of North Carolina, Tayshaun Taylor of Kansas, one against a very bad match, the other makes a lot of mistakes, one on one you can beat them up."
Walker was stunned for a moment, then smiled and touched his head.
Although Tang Tian said this correctly, he felt a little embarrassed to praise him.
The match between North Carolina and Continental is close to each other. Not only fans of the two schools, but the NBA is also far more concerned than other games.
North Carolina's full name is North Carolina Tar Heel, also known as North Carolina Blue, with 5 championships and second only to UCLA and Kentucky in the NCAA, surpassing its arch-rival Duke University.
Of course, it is not only his NCAA performance, but also because of his own, Michael Jordan.
Jordan's data in North Carolina is not explosive, and he averaged only 17.5 points per game in his sophomore year, but this was the request of his mentor Dean Smith, to suppress his desire to score and let him lead his teammates to play team basketball.
This approach allowed Jordan to develop a selfless playing style and tough personality in the future, helping him become the "God of Basketball" who dominates the NBA league.
In layman's terms, North Carolina made Jordan a success, and Jordan also made North Carolina with his future performance.
Because Jordan and North Carolina's popularity across the United States actually surpassed super-famous universities such as UCLA, Kentucky and Duke.
Take the venue of this competition as an example.
Theoretically, according to the rules, the venue for the competition should be held in neutral cities, but there is no absolute neutrality in this kind of thing, because large cities basically have NCAA schools, and it is nothing more than the strength of these schools.
It is even more impossible for NCAA to put competitions in small cities for neutrality, and they also have to make money, so when choosing addresses, bias is inevitable. In addition, these locations were selected a year ago, bias is even more obvious.
Charlotte is located in North Carolina, where Duke and North Carolina are both here, playing in Charlotte, both schools play at home.
The battle is imminent, and Charlotte can be said to be a mobilization of the whole city. Local sports media do not even report on NBA games, but are paying attention to this game throughout the whole process.
At around 6 o'clock that night, the Charlotte Bobcats played against the Phoenix Suns at home.
The Bobcats are now ranked tenth in the Eastern Conference and are making their final sprint to enter the playoffs, and their opponents Suns are in a similar situation. This game is crucial to both sides and is predictably a fierce battle.
However, the number of viewers at this game hit a season-low low, with less than 30% attendance. The scene looked a little miserable.
Vince Carter is a member of the Suns. Because he is a North Carolina alumnus, the reporter started chatting with him before the game.
"Vins, the attendance rate at the scene tonight is not very high. Have you ever encountered this before?" the reporter asked.
"Yes, of course, this happens every March." Katitou said.
"Will you mind? Because there are not many people watching the game on site."
"No, I don't mind, I envy them because I can't go to the scene if there is a game tonight." Carter said with a smile.
"Who do you think will win in North Carolina and Connecticut?" the reporter asked.
"Of course it's North Carolina, North Carolina Night!" Carter replied without hesitation, making a winning gesture towards the camera.
"It's just a pity that I can't go to the scene to cheer for the young men in North Carolina." He then said with a little regret.
Carter couldn't go to the scene to watch the game because he wanted to play, but the appearance of another North Carolina alumnus caused the Bank of America Stadium to be in full swing.
Michael Jordan, the NBA's basketball god and the Bobcats' owner, gave up watching the Bobcats' key games and ran to the scene.
This approach is completely expected. The North Carolina competition is in Charlotte. As the most famous alumnus in North Carolina, it is not appropriate not to come.
Jordan's appearance also made all the fans on the scene feel excited.
Jordan waved to greet the audience, and his appearance greatly encouraged the confidence of North Carolina players.
"The enemy has Gundam." Tang Tian couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
Tonight, more than 30,000 viewers from North Carolina were from North Carolina, and Kangda only had less than 20,000. The number of fans was below. Let’s get Jordan’s buff bonus, and the game environment is a bit harsh.
"What?" Walker heard Tang Tian muttering and came over to ask.
"I said Jordan is so handsome." Walker certainly didn't understand the words of the future, he said casually.
"It's not as handsome as you." Walker said.
"...I mean he has a big aura." Tang Tian looked dark.
"Yeah." Walker nodded in agreement. Jordan's aura was unparalleled in the basketball field.
"But no matter how big the aura is, it's useless. I can't play anyway. Moreover, Jordan lost the game before watching North Carolina games." He continued.
Tang Tian nodded.
Jordan's appearance was a great encouragement to the fans on the scene, but it may not be certain for the North Carolina players. The God of Basketball sat on the sidelines, and the players were under great psychological pressure, which may not be a good thing for those players with average psychological qualities.
