Chapter 24 has shocked the entire United States once again!
The first round at the start of the second half.
North Carolina's offensive.
Lawson initiated a pick-and-roll with Hansbrough, who bounced the ball to Hansbrough who was cutting to the basket. Hansbrough then beat Westbrook, who switched onto him, and scored the basket under the rim.
45 is better than 53
Hansbrough was the first to step up and help the team stabilize the situation.
Hansbrough's physicality isn't great in the NBA, but he's very tough in the NCAA, and UCLA's defense struggles to contain him.
The University of North Carolina fans regained their momentum, and the atmosphere in the arena grew increasingly tense.
Westbrook dribbled the ball across half-court and passed it to Collison, while Danny Green continued to closely guard Zeng Zhen.
"Zeng, I won't give you an easy chance to make a move," Danny Green shouted at Zeng Zhen.
Danny Green is projected to be drafted slightly higher than Zeng Zhen, and he is widely regarded as a 3-and-D player, with defense being his forte.
But tonight he was completely outplayed by Zeng Zhen, which made Danny Green very frustrated.
"Dude, I've already got 26 points, you can't stop me," Zeng Zhen retorted to Danny Green.
Zeng Zhen is very confident now, and he will definitely continue to dominate Danny Green in the second half.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Zhen used a reverse run to create distance between himself and Danny Green, and quickly ran towards Love.
Love sets an off-ball screen for Zeng Zhen, and Collison dribbles to Zeng Zhen's side and passes the ball hand-off.
Zeng Zhenyi received the ball and faked a three-pointer, but Lawson, who was on defense, rushed over to defend him.
The North Carolina locker room had already emphasized at halftime that Zeng Zhen should not be allowed to shoot three-pointers anymore, and the nearest player should rush him.
Zeng Zhen pulled the ball back, then dribbled to the right to shake off Lawson and drove at high speed into the three-point line.
At this moment, Hansbrough's reinforcements arrived.
Zeng Zhen leaned against Hansbrough on the right side, then suddenly turned left and dribbled past him to the basket for a layup.
45:55.
Zeng Zhen's relentless attack continued.
Tonight, Zeng Zhen is determined to not only help the team win but also score a high number of points himself.
While everyone at North Carolina was focused on Zeng Zhen's shooting, Zeng Zhen started dribbling and driving to the basket.
Zeng Zhen continued his relentless offensive.
UNC continued to respond to Zeng Zhen's offense, this time with Hansbrough assisting Danny Green to make a layup.
Zeng Zhen was blocked by a screen while defending Danny Green.
47 is better than 55
After Danny Green scored, he yelled at Zeng Zhen, "You can't stop me."
"Danny, you'd better not look for cover, go one-on-one," Zeng Zhen taunted Danny Green.
Danny Green completely ignored the challenge, even in a one-on-one situation.
Are you kidding me? I'm not going to fight you one-on-one.
UCLA's offensive continues.
Zeng Zhen failed to receive the ball this time, and Danny Green bypassed the screen, continuing to chase and put pressure on him.
Seeing this, Westbrook decisively started backing down Lawson from beyond the three-point line.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Westbrook's physical gifts are top-notch among guards, and he repeatedly knocked Lawson away.
Westbrook turned and drove to the basket, drawing a double team and passing to Love.
The paint was too crowded, so Love passed the ball to Zeng Zhen on the left side of the three-point line.
Zeng Zhen received the ball and immediately accelerated to drive hard against Danny Green.
"Whoosh!"
Danny Green witnessed the speed, and Zeng Zhen easily passed Danny Green in one step.
Hansbrough's help defense came again under the basket, and Zeng Zhen took a step into the air, grabbed the basketball with both hands, and dodged and weaved.
Hansbrough raised both hands high, straight up and down!
Zeng Zhen demonstrated his ability to stay airborne, only making his move as Hansbrough was gradually falling.
"Bang!"
"Whoosh!"
The basketball bounced and then fell into the basket.
47:57.
Zeng Zhen's scoring continues.
The atmosphere at the scene exploded once again!!
This newbie has already scored 30 points. How many points does he need to get?
[It's unstoppable, truly unstoppable.]
This guy plays like Kobe, damn it, who said he was Shawn Marion?
[I can't help but laugh when I see his template. Can Shawn really play like that?]
[He was once the top-scoring draft student!!!]
[God, how could this guy play so badly in the regular season?]
That's really amazing.
UCLA fans went absolutely wild for Zeng Zhen tonight!!
On the court, Zeng Zhen retreated to defend with a relaxed expression, while the players on the UCLA bench were shouting excitedly.
"Dude, you finally made it!" Westbrook exclaimed excitedly.
"You're faster than Russell," Love laughed.
"He's not as fast as me," Westbrook retorted.
"Next time, let's have a 100-meter race," Zeng Zhen said.
Zeng Zhen wanted to see who was faster, him or Westbrook.
"OK!" Westbrook shared the same thought.
Sidelines.
"This guy is going to be the center of attention tonight," Presti said.
Hao Wei said helplessly, "The thing I feared most has still happened."
Presti adjusted his glasses: "We'll send him and Russell tryout invitations after the season ends."
Hao Wei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it."
The Chinese fans watching Zeng Zhen play in the stadium felt genuinely proud.
Zeng Zhen's skin color makes Chinese people feel a strong sense of familiarity, and if Zeng Zhen enters the NBA, they will become his core fan base.
Zeng Zhen was enjoying the cheers of the fans on the field.
Zeng Zhen is very clear about his current abilities. Although he is not a superstar in the NBA, he is a superstar in NCAA-level competitions.
Even after the integration of various superstars, his dribbling and shooting abilities can still maintain a stable and continuous scoring ability under high-intensity competition.
Zeng Zhen is determined to take down North Carolina tonight to demonstrate his abilities.
When the University of North Carolina came on offense, their tactics were still very traditional: the inside players pressured the post, the guards organized the offense, and the forwards cut to the basket or run to the corner.
Zeng Zhen was still marking Danny Green, but Danny Green had no chance, so Lawson passed the ball to Hansbrough.
Hansbrough hit Love and then turned and hooked the ball.
"Bang!"
"Whoosh!"
The basketball bounced off the backboard and fell into the basket.
49:57.
Love's interior defense ability continues to be questioned.
UCLA's interior defense is under immense pressure.
Love passed the ball to Zeng Zhen, who was nearby. Zeng Zhen knew that tonight was going to be a high-scoring affair!
Zeng Zhen quickly dribbled the ball across half-court and passed it to Westbrook.
Westbrook drives to the basket, and Zeng Zhen moves to draw the defense away.
Compared to North Carolina's slow pace, UCLA plays very fast.
After Westbrook drove to the basket, he found there was help defense and passed the ball to Love, who was following up.
At that moment, Zeng Zhen made a reverse cut on the outside to get past Danny Green and cut into the free throw line.
Love made a fake pass move, seemingly to pass to Zeng Zhen.
To divert Hansbrough's defensive attention, he opted for a floater.
The ball was thrown from a very short distance, and it went precisely into the basket.
.....
The two sides maintained a 10-point lead and traded baskets repeatedly.
In the subsequent game, Zeng Zhen continued to be a focal point of UCLA's offense. He had fewer scoring opportunities than in the first half, but he still managed to score from time to time.
Zeng Zhen continued to demonstrate his all-around, flawless offensive capabilities.
Zeng Zhen was phenomenal tonight!
He conquered Oracle Arena.
He was declaring that he was dissatisfied with his late second-round draft pick prospects.
The fans in the stadium cheered as Zeng Zhen scored each and every point.
North Carolina looked gloomy; they couldn't catch up, and Zeng Zhen single-handedly disrupted their defense.
Roy Williams looked up to the sky and sighed...
.....
Ultimately, the score of the match was 87 to 100.
UCLA defeated North Carolina by 13 points to become one of the elite eight teams.
曾振全场三分球12投9中，两分球9中7，罚球4中4，合计轰下45分3篮板5助攻3抢断2失误的数据。
This is just a prediction of a player who was drafted late in the second round and scored 45 points against North Carolina.
This has shocked the entire United States once again!!
