Substitute appearance, what kind of monster is this?

  With 1:22 left until the end of the first half, the score is now 34-29, with New Mexico State temporarily leading by five points.

  Just when everyone thought the two sides would enter the second half with such a difference in points, the situation on the field changed abruptly!

  New Mexico State suddenly picked up speed, starting with point guard Doug Brown using cover to drive straight to the basket for a 2+1!

  This was followed by two open threes from the perimeter on back-to-back team plays by Noah Richardson and Branson!

  43 to 29.

  The sudden outburst allowed New Mexico State to extend its lead to 14 points at intermission!

  A dead silence fell over the Texas Longhorns.

  Being down 14 points at halftime in the NCAA and being down 14 points at halftime in the NBA are two completely different concepts.

  The NBA is a four-quarter system, with each quarter lasting 12 minutes and the total length of the game being 48 minutes.

  The NCAA, on the other hand, is a top and bottom half system, with 20-minute halves each and a total game length of only 40 minutes.

  Also unlike the NBA where a single round of offense lasts 24 seconds, the NCAA round of offense lasts 35 seconds.

  NCAA's offensive and defensive tempo compared to the NBA slower than half a star, a whole game played down 50, 60 points of the game abound.

  The 13-point spread has been enough to create a change of heart among the players.

  Texas cheerleaders sell out the stadium during halftime.

  The quality of the cheerleaders at the University of Texas is not to be sniffed at, they are all hot girls with hot bodies and seductive eyes.

  At this point, however, the fans don't seem to be in the mood to enjoy their dancing, and if the team doesn't look for a change to continue to play with the same form as they did in the first half of the game, then it's highly likely that they'll go out in the cold in the round of 64!

  "OH! The #4 seed Texas Longhorns look as if they are in trouble! They suffered a black minute at the end of the first half as New Mexico State went on a mini 9-0 run to stretch their deficit to 13 points!"

  During the halftime break, two live commentators analyzed the first half of the battle between the two sides.

  "As far as the first half goes New Mexico State was the better side that played, they had better teamwork and a stronger desire to win, while Texas didn't seem to be in the game yet."

  "Let's see what kind of adjustments the Texas Longhorns make in the second half, if they come out of this game, it will be the first cold streak of the year since March Madness started!"

  两位解说员很清楚观众就喜欢这种弱胜强,下克上的爆冷情节,所以迫不及待提出爆冷的观念.

  Cold streaks and dark horses are why March Madness is so crazy!

  Inside the Texas Longhorns locker room, Rick Barnes was constantly tapping on the game board doing setup work for the second half.

  The air pressure in the locker room was low, and the players sat in their respective seats without saying a word.

  As the team's top player, Durant should have said something to encourage his teammates at this time, yet he chose to remain silent.

  Character introverted Durant itself is not good at talking, and in the team Rick Barnes to protect him too well, the coach gave him the stage to show his talent, great freedom and the right to fire, but did not tell him how to become a leader.

  During halftime, head coach Rick Barnes still didn't put Chen Yan on the playing roster, which made Chen Yan a little disappointed.

  He's eager to play and desperate to help turn the team's fortunes around.

  "Be patient, there will be a chance for you to play, don't rush."

  Offensive coach Spurgeon Leeman could see Chen Yan's anxiety and patted him on the shoulder to offer encouragement.

  Russell Spurgeon is very optimistic about Chen Yan, he has seen Chen Yan's ability and form in his eyes this week, but the game substitutions are not up to him, they have to be nodded by head coach Rick Barnes.

  "Thanks Coach, I'm always ready to play!"

  Chen Yan nodded at Russell Spreeman.

  The second half of the game started quickly.

  The no-huddle alternate coverage play set up at midfield by Rick Barnes paid off.

  DJ Augustine made two consecutive open 3-point attempts by running the floor, but unfortunately they both bounced off the rim.

  The fans let out a guttural sigh of relief, he's just too ironic tonight.

  Not only DJ Augustine, but all of the Texas Longhorns' wideouts had poor hands.

  Even the commentators couldn't help but chime in, "Are the Longhorns getting ready to combine their efforts to forge a new basket for Mercer Arena?"

  The good thing is that Duran is gradually finding his form, hitting several difficult high jumpers in a row, carrying the team forward by himself.

  Although compared to the first half Durant has picked up slightly on the offensive end and is scoring more points in motion.

  But he still doesn't know how to drive the whole team on offense, and the team continues to perform like a scattered bunch.

  As the clock ticked down, the deficit stayed around 10 points.

  Head coach Rick Barnes looked calm and collected standing on the sidelines, but in fact his back had long been drenched in sweat, only because he was wearing a suit everyone couldn't see it.

  "Beep!"

  On the Texas Longhorns' offensive round, the referee suddenly whistled just as Durant was barreling down the lane with the ball.

  After the whistle, the referee signaled for an offensive foul on Durant!

  It certainly added insult to injury for the Longhorns, who were already down by double digits.

  Durant didn't argue with the referee, just walked away with his head down in chagrin.

  It feels like he's already playing with almost no heart.

  The fans on the sidelines were cheering less and less, and the morale of the Texas Longhorns had hit rock bottom.

  "OH! an! Kevin Durant, eager to chase points, bursts into the lane and gets blown for a take down!"

  "Form is getting worse for the Longhorns, who currently need another scorer besides Durant!"

  The two live commentators hit the nail on the head as to what is wrong with Texas right now.

  Texas can no longer be said to be reliant on Durant, accurately their only play right now is to give the ball to Durant!

  "It's really going to be a blowout! Texas was so inept on the offensive end tonight!"

  "At this rate of play, Durant is afraid he'll die of exhaustion before he's played the whole game, right?"

  "A No. 4 seed getting out early in the round of 64? Exciting exciting exciting!"

  "I wonder if an early exit will have an impact on Durant's draft position..."

  Fans on the sidelines and in front of the TV kept discussing the situation on the field.

  The game went to a TV timeout with 11:02 left to play.

  The Longhorns are now down 13 points, 39-52.

  Time is running out for Texas!

  Rick Barnes understands that he doesn't want to go home and fish he has to make a change!

  "Chen! You're on after the timeout!"

  As all the players gathered around, Rick Barnes suddenly named Chen Yan!

  Caught off guard and unexpected!

  Hearing the head coach's call, Chen Yan instantly tensed his body.

  The opportunity he had been waiting for had finally come!

  "Don't stress, just play as a training game! Play to your strengths and go pound the inside! Try to help Kevin tear up the space, and lay down fast breaks when you have the chance! Understand?"

  Rick Barnes kept tapping on the tactical board, scrambling to set up Chen Yan's tactical play when he took the field.

  The short pause was soon over.

  The moment the electronic beep sounded, Chen Yan ripped off his training suit and pants and walked to the center of the field with the main players!

  After seeing Chen Yan come on as a substitute, the live commentator also began to introduce it to the fans:

  "Back from the timeout the Texas Longhorns made a substitution, they replaced Justin Mason for Chen Yan, a foreign exchange student from China, he is also the only foreign player for the Texas Longhorns, playing point guard on the court, averaging 1.3 points and 1.1 assists this season."

  "Will he be the Longhorns' secret weapon?"

  The two commentators clearly had a flirtatious tone in their voices, and averaging 1 point and 1 assist per game is clearly not the kind of statistic that a secret weapon should have.

  A number of Asian fans on the sidelines let out cheers at the sight of Chen Yan's appearance on the field.

  They understand that it's not easy to see a yellow-skinned player in the NCAA, and it's even harder in the March Madness arena.

  Right at this moment, a mechanical sound suddenly resounded in Chen Yan's head.

  "Ding! Now enact the main quest [Turning the Tide Against the Wind], the quest completion condition: the host helps the Texas Longhorns turn the game around and win before the end of the game!"

  "Quest Reward: 6 Honor Points, Weed's signature skill [Misty Steps], and unlocking the next stage of the main quest!"

  Triggered the main quest!

  This caused Chen Yan, who was already exhilarated in himself, to become even more excited at this moment!

  He could even hear his heart thumping!

  Chen Yan scanned the scoreboard for the difference in points.

  Thirteen points is nothing!

  Race wins and mission rewards ... I want them all!

  He was confident in his ability and talent.

  The reversal begins at the moment of his own debut!

  Chen Yan walked over to Noah Richardson, the player he needed to play against when he took the court.

  Noel Richardson glanced at him:

  "HAT? Is there no one left in Texas? Or has the game been abandoned?"

  "I'll beat you to a pulp and make you regret standing in front of me and stepping on this field behind you!"

  "I'll be your nightmare tonight, I promise."

  The team's lead made Noah Richardson float a little bit, turning on taunting mode and spewing trash talk.

  Chen Yan had read a lot of sports and athletic online articles before he crossed over, and the protagonist would inevitably encounter such mocking face villains on the field.

  Chen Yan also spit out this kind of clichéd plot, but never thought that today actually real happened to himself!

  Art comes from life and it's true ...

  Thinking of this, the corners of Chen Yan's mouth rose slightly.

  He laughed!

  Noel Richardson, who was on the sidelines, suddenly froze at the sight.

  What does that smile mean?

  Could this be his response to the trash talk he just gave?

  Noel Richardson felt mocked and said on the spot that he couldn't take it anymore!

  In fact Chen Yan is not against him, in Chen Yan's impression, the future NBA does not have a player named Noah Richardson, I do not know after the end of his NCAA career he went to play in a lower league or find a class.

  For such a player, Chen Yan would naturally not put it in his eyes...

  The referee whistles and the match resumes.

  Point guard Doug Brown had just caught the ball on the sideline when Noah Richardson frantically beckoned for the ball!

  He treated Chen Yan as a soft persimmon, with a stance of wanting to crush him!

  Doug Brown also took heart and delivered the ball with a groundout.

  Before catching the ball, Richardson had already thought of a hundred postures to eat Chen Yan alone, however, in the moment of lowering his waist he realized violently that the ball was gone!

  Chen Yan killed the ball from the flank with a stomp and poked it ahead of him!

  The passing intention is too obvious, passing this kind of ball in front of Chen Yan is basically equal to nothing.

  "Pop!"

  Broken!

  But not completely broken!

  The basketball changed its original trajectory toward the sideline!

  Chen Yan and Doug Brown at the top of the arc simultaneously accelerated to chase the ball, and the two engaged in a sprint race!

  It was a 50-50 ball, but Chen Yan had the upper hand with his absolute speed!

  "O!!!"

  "So fast!"

  Amidst the gasps of the fans on the sidelines, Chen Yan grabbed a flying save before Doug Brown!

  In the air, Chen Yan lost control of his body while mastering the ball!

  Without hesitation, the moment it flew out of bounds Chen Yan twisted his head and slammed the ball towards Doug Brown.

  "Bang!"

  The ball hit Doug Brown in the thigh and bounced right out of bounds.

  Chen Yan, on the other hand, fell headfirst into the audience.

  However, it was not a big problem, with the bodies of the audience in the first row acting as human sandbags, Chen Yan basically had no risk of injury.

  After all, he's not O'Neal, and a flying save wouldn't be a scene where the fans scatter.

  Durant and DJ Augustine rushed forward and at the same time stepped forward to pull Chen Yan up from the ground.

  At the same time the referee signaled that the Texas Longhorns had the ball!

  "Chen the player put up a great fight when he came on the field and didn't shy away from the game at all!"

  "This guy played smart, if he had just forced a flying save he would have probably been robbed by his opponent, creating a situation where he was more than a player, he chose to smash the ball into his opponent out of bounds, earning his team an offensive opportunity!"

  The two commentators nodded their heads repeatedly, expressing their praise for Chen Yan.

  On the field to go all out, in addition to reaping the praise of the commentary Chen Yan also won the site of the fans not a small applause!

  Although Chen Yan is an open man, but really on the field to play is their own not the system, if there is no good attitude and strong will, even if open I'm afraid it is also very difficult to reach the heart of the expected kind of height.

  Possession change, Texas Longhorns' offensive turn.

  DJ Augustine protects the ball with his left hand and brings it upfield with his right.

  New Mexico State's defensive attitude remains strong, especially against Durant.

  They know that Durant doesn't like physical contact, so they try to make as much physical contact with him as possible when jamming without the ball, disrupting his offensive rhythm with confrontation.

  At the 45-degree corner to the left of the free-throw line, Durant barely caught the ball after a bit of a tangle.

  But before he could turn around, two New Mexico State players wrapped up left and right.

  Left and right for the men, wrapping Durant between their flesh!

  The game has come to this point, anyone with eyes can see that the University of Texas wants to turn the tide only rely on Durant.

  Sack him and be done with it!

  Double-teaming Durant, someone is bound to be released, and that someone is Chen Yan.

  "KD!!!"

  Chen Yan shouted and then accelerated, seizing the opportunity to go straight to the basket without the ball!

  Durant is an average passer, but he has a top-tier physical edge.

  Upon hearing Chen Yan's call Durant leaped up and used his height and arm strength to give the ball inside!

  Chen Yan did not make any unnecessary movements after receiving the ball and jumped directly!

  Facing the center Marcus Gill who came to fill in the defense, Chen Yan changed his hand in the air and pulled the lever, and lightly threw the ball from the armpit!

  The ball bounced around the basket a couple times before crashing into the net!

  "Nice shot!"

  Durant with an excited face went up and high-fived Chen Yan, finally a teammate stepped forward to help himself share the pressure of scoring, Durant felt a little easier.

  "Clang!"

  On the offensive possession, New Mexico State missed a shot, and Chen Yan took a step back and grabbed the defensive rebound with one hand.

  Not handing the ball to DJ Augustine, Chen Yan opted to push forward solo.

  Just as New Mexico State was still preparing to organize a position to defend, Chen Yan launched a surprise attack!

  With an acceleration, Chen Yan drilled through the gap between Noah Richardson and Branson first!

  Immediately after that, Chen Yan rolled Pinggang on a thousand horsemen and stabbed at the basket with the ball!

  This acceleration ability ... Those who didn't know thought that Chen Yan's gearbox had blown up!

  "BOO!"

  With an explosive sound, Chen Yan completed a one-armed slam!

  New Mexico State players completely did not expect Chen Yan to have such explosive power, and could only silently salute from the sidelines ...

  First, an incredibly deft switching pull-up, and then a violent, one-handed bomb to the rim.

  In just two short rounds Chen Yan set the scene on fire!!!!

  The cheers from the diehard Texas fans were loud again as the deficit closed to single digits and the fans saw hope for a turnaround!

  Chen Yan swung his fist hard!

  The fans' cheers excited every cell in his body!

  The Texas bench was also resurrected with players jumping up and down and frantically flinging towels in their hands!

  New Mexico State offense.

  Richardson reaches for the ball again, he still wants to hit Chen Yan at the point.

  It wasn't just because of Chen Yan's honeyed smile that was suspected to be mocking.

  According to scouting reports, Chen Yan looks like the best bully and is a breakout player.

  In fact, the scouting report is not written wrong, just Chen Yan is not the former teenager, he has more than a little change!

  Chen Yan ambushed Richardson's side, ready to unleash [Divine Steal].

  He didn't jam or semi-circle forward just to create an illusion of safety for his opponents.

  This is a ball that he dares to break if his opponent dares to pass it!

  New Mexico State point guard Doug Brown did not choose to pass.

  It wasn't because he gained insight into Chen Yan's defensive intentions, but New Mexico State deliberately slowed down the pace of its offense as it watched the Texas side of the ball show signs of picking up steam.

  However, this approach tends to disrupt the team's original offensive rhythm.

  Doug Brown dribbled from the top of the arc to control the clock, and with nine seconds left on the offensive clock of the round, he signaled for a block.

  The University of Texas switched defenses quickly, and Doug Brown took a look at it without too much of a chance and brought the ball out to the three-point line again to reorganize.

  Seeing how little time was left on the clock, Doug Brown moved the ball directly to Richardson at the top of the arc without a second thought.

  Richardson's heart fluttered!

  P!

  You just asked for the ball and didn't give it to me, and now you're thinking of me when you're dumping it?

  With only 2 seconds left on the clock, Richardson directly met Chen Yan's defense and took a strong shot!

  Chen Yan knows that Richardson now has no second choice of offense and can only force the shot.

  Without a second thought, Chen Yan stretched out his long arms in a vigorous leap!

  "Swish!"

  Richardson shoots an airball off the basket as Chen Yan interferes!

  "Doh!"

  At the same time the stadium's electronic buzzer sounded.

  New Mexico State was defended with a 35-second violation!

  The Texas Longhorns players were high-fiving each other on the field, and at this stage of the game, defending every turn was crucial to the point chase!

  The baseline served and DJ Augustine dribbled the ball to the top of the three-point arc.

  Chen Yan circles out from the baseline for the ball.

  DJ Augustine in the guise of a tool man, handing the ball to the in-form Chan Yan.

  The consecutive scores after coming on the court had already made Chen Yan play high, after getting the ball, he directly gestured and signaled the whole team to pull away!

  Facing the defense of Noah Richardson, Chen Yan bent down and lowered his center of gravity, first dribbled the ball with his left hand, and violently tapped the ball to the right in the moment of feigning a breakthrough!

  Without fancy maneuvers, Chen Yan passed Richardson in one step as clean as the road in the early morning!

  Noel Richardson's feet stayed in place as if they had been driven in with nails!

  "Oh! Nice wiggle, clean! Chan freezes Richardson!"

  "Pleasing to the eye! That wiggle gives me a glimpse of Iverson!"

  The two commentators got high at the commentary booth as well!

  The fans in the crowd rose as a group!

  However Chen Yan's performance wasn't over yet!

  "Mommy, look! A UFO!"

  A young fan in a Texas long jersey points innocently toward the field.

  Only to see Chen Yan step into the penalty area, facing the University of New Mexico to fill in the defense of the lineman Marcus Gill, flying up is a violent interception!

  Marcus Gill was a bit confused, he had only just taken up a defensive position and his hand hadn't even had time to raise before Chen Yan rode him!

  What kind of monster is this?

  Not only him, but New Mexico State's coaches, players and even the live commentators were flabbergasted.

  You're telling me this is a water cooler player who only averages 1.3 points per game????
