NBA: Be the GOAT starting today!

It's 9 AM Beijing time, today is Tuesday.

Wildcats games are broadcast nationwide by ESPN, hosted by Chris Smith, and in China by Sina Sports.

In university dormitories, at home, and in internet cafes, many fans have been waiting in front of their computers for a long time.

Meanwhile, office workers who want to slack off can only occasionally open Sina's chat room and sneak a peek.

"How competitive is Yi Jianlian's game this week? He's really popular in the US right now."

"If Yi wins this game, he can go to NCAA March Madness. Kobe, Garnett, and LeBron won't even have a chance to play."

In the chat room, a large number of fans are exchanging ideas. As the player currently predicted to enter the green room in the national draft, Zhou Yi has become a sensation among fans across the ocean.

Everyone is hoping that this Chinese small forward can stand on the highest stage of college basketball in the United States.

In the studio, our guests, Professor Wei Ping and Professor Yu Jia, had already started chatting.

"Zhou Yi's opponent in this round of the finals is the Chattanoo Lynx. What's your opinion, Mr. Wei Ping?" Yu Jia asked Wei Ping from the commentary booth.

"Wow! This game will definitely be won by Zhou Yi and the Wildcats. Look at Zhou Yi's physical talent, he's one of the best among these black guys, long arms and big hands, let's beat him."

While Wei Ping was talking animatedly, Zhou Yi and Curry had already walked out of the player tunnel.

As the home arena of the Chattanoo Lynx, the majority of the seats in the Garden Arena were occupied by Chattanoo Lynx fans.

The entire arena was decorated in the colors of the Chattanoo team's jerseys, with navy blue and antique gold Chattanoo team flags fluttering in the wind.

Meanwhile, the Davidson Wildcats fans who traveled with the team by bus gathered behind the Wildcats' bench.

They were few in number, but they were all wearing red Wildcats support t-shirts and cheering for the Wildcats players.

As the countdown reached zero, the referee blew his whistle, and the match officially began.

Curry dribbled the ball steadily up the court despite being harassed by Chattanoo point guard McDowell.

With a clever behind-the-back dribble, McDowell was left behind. Curry drove into the paint, Chattanoo helped defend, and Curry passed the ball to Zhou Yi in the elbow area.

Swish—Zhou Yi raised his hand and threw the ball.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we haven't seen Zhou Yi play much before. Our 19-year-old small forward not only has explosive physical talent, but also a high level of shooting ability. Wow, his mid-range shot is really accurate."

Teacher Wei Ping's cheerful praise could be heard coming from the live broadcast room.

Chattanoo's overall level is relatively weak, and as the media predicted, the Wildcats took the lead from the start.

At the start of the second half, the Wildcats were already leading by twelve points.

The Wildcats had possession of the ball. Curry received a pass from Zhou Yi and hit his fourth three-pointer of the game.

The cheers had just begun from the Wildcats fans in the stands when a loud thud was heard under the basket.

Under the backboard, Lovedale, who was preparing to retreat on defense, and Chattanoo center Dox tripped and fell to the ground together.

Lovedale was lying flat on the ground, and Dox's body had fallen and landed right on Lovedale's left foot.

A scream came from Lovedale's mouth, and Zhou Yi, who was standing in the bottom corner, quickly rushed forward to check on Lovedale's condition.

The Wildcats' center, who was usually tough, was now in obvious pain.

He struggled to touch his left ankle, a tear glistening in his eye.

"My foot, it's ruined!"

The Wildcats players surrounded Lovedale, protecting him in the middle, and the referee blew his whistle, ending the game.

Zhou Yi stood in the tense crowd, watching the Wildcats' team doctor squatting down next to Lovedale to examine him.

"This is bad. It might be a sprain. We'll need to take him to the hospital for a proper examination after he leaves the field."

The Wildcats' team doctor said regretfully, shook his head, and gestured to the sidelines to bring the stretcher.

"week......"

A hint of sadness flashed in Lovedale's eyes. This once tough man was now helplessly helped onto a stretcher like a child.

Lovedale's pained expression completely enraged the Wildcats.

Wildcats power forward Rossiter shoved Chattanoo center Dox, who was standing next to the crowd.

"Damn bastard, it's all your fault that Lovedale got hurt."

Rossiter cursed and shoved Dox, and the referee standing by quickly blew a warning whistle.

"No, Rossiter, don't be foolish. If you get sent off too, we'll be in danger."

Zhou Yi reached out and stood between the two, looking at Rossiter with a serious expression.

Seeing the pained Lovedale, Zhou Yi was filled with rage, but he knew that basketball was not a fight.

If Wildcats' starting power forward Rosette is also ejected, the Wildcats will lose two starting big men in the second half of the game.

The scales of victory are bound to begin to swing back and forth.

The words of the Book of Changes awakened Rossiter from his daze, and the conflict that was about to erupt between the two sides was nipped in the bud.

The altercation between Rossiter and Dox did not escalate, but each of them still received a technical foul, which was canceled out.

The game continued, and when the Wildcats saw that they were missing their starting center, the Chattanoo team began to have some hope of winning.

They frequently attacked Wildcats backup center Dan Nelmes, trying to get some offensive opportunities under the basket.

In the stands, Wildcats fans were on tenterhooks.

But when Zhou Yi started to provide more support in the penalty area, Chattanoo's hopes were dashed.

"Wow, Zhou Yi is starting to go wild. His fifth block of the game was on the opposing center, Dox. The Chattanoo players were stunned."

Wei Ping's commentary made no attempt to conceal his bias towards the Wildcats.

As Zhou Yi continued to cover, the Chattanoo players on the field began to feel fear; the red number eight figure seemed to be the finisher on the field.

He will jump up and slap the basketball away with his big hands the moment you release it.

Meanwhile, on the offensive end, Zhou Yi and Curry went on a scoring spree, leaving the Chattanoo team struggling to defend.

The score wasn't narrowed; in fact, it gradually widened until the referee blew the final whistle.

比分定格在了98:76，野猫队大胜查塔努队22分，获得了08-09赛季南方联盟锦标赛冠军。

The Chattanoo fans had begun to leave in disappointment, their emotions fluctuating with the game, until finally culminating in heartbreak and despair.

Lovedale's injury and departure gave them hope of winning, but that prodigy Zhou Yi stepped up once again.

He forcefully extinguished the flames of victory for the Chattanoo team.

In the stands, excited Wildcats fans cheered wildly, celebrating their hard-won championship.

And then the MVP trophy of the tournament was handed to Zhou Yi.

The fans erupted in the loudest applause of the game, shouting wildly.

"Zhou! MVP!"

......

"The Southern Conference Championship has concluded, with the Davidson Wildcats, led by Zhou Yi and Curry, securing a dominant championship and advancing to March Madness. Zhou Yi, who averaged 31 points per game in the championship, was named the tournament MVP, becoming the first Chinese player to achieve this feat in American college basketball." — Sina Sports

"Wildcats player Lofdale sprained his left ankle during the Finals and has been diagnosed with a need to rest for more than two weeks. The Wildcats will face the first round of the Major without their key interior player, and various media outlets predict that the Wildcats will be eliminated in the first round." —ESPN
