15. Three pairs of blocked shots! On the rookie list!
The Villanova Wildcats did not had too much resistance, and they replaced all the main players after a while in the second half.
Officially renounced the game.
Kerry Kittles, Alvin Williams and Tim Thomas returned to the bench with embarrassed faces.
Especially Tim Thomas.
The Wildcats' champion center, but completely dominated by Luke Hobbs.
After the whole game, Luke's data exploded and set a record.
Look at Tim Thomas.
In the limited time against Luke, he did not scored a single point, not even a single rebound!
This had greatly damaged Tim Thomas' confidence.
He thought he might have to spend another year in college and not be able to go straight to the '96 draft.
Villanova gave up the game early, and Georgetown did not hit the killer.
Iverson took the break with 25 points and 15 assists.
Luke hit a record 40 points, 25 rebounds, and 11 blocks!
"Even if there's Dikembe Mutombo, Alonzo Mourning and Patrick Ewing in Georgetown history!"
"But Luke Hobbs is still the only player in Georgetown history with a triple-double of 40+25+10 blocks!"
"Not just in Georgetown history, Luke Hobbs is the first player in NCAA history to have that kind of stats!"
This game had completely turned into Luke's record night!
Verizon Center, home team locker room.
As soon as Luke walked into the locker room, his teammates headed by Iverson shrugged their heads with cold water.
"Congratulations! Luke, you made Georgetown history!"
"I already knew you had this ability, buddy, I already knew this day would come sooner or later!"
Jerome Williams and others sent their congratulations one after another.
The whole locker room was happy.
"Okay, boys, stop for a while."
Coach John Thompson, who finally walked into the locker room, stopped the young people's carnival behavior: "Your seniors want to see you."
The voice fell.
Dikembe Mutombo, slowly walked into the locker room.
In an instant, the originally noisy locker room was quiet.
Dikembe Mutombo.
NBA All-Star player.
NBA shot-blocking champion for two consecutive seasons.
The best defensive player in the league last season!
"Hey guys, why aren't you talking?"
As soon as he entered the locker room, Uncle Mu greeted the young players familiarly: "Jerome, put down the bucket in your hand."
"Othella, don't look at me with that look."
"Allen, your dribbling is so cool, seriously, I can't be as smooth as you in my life~"
"And you..."
At the end, Uncle Mu pointed to Luke, who was soaked all over his body: "Luke, the new inside big guy in Georgetown."
"Listen to me, I'm tired of blocking triple-doubles in the NBA, so don't be proud!"
Speaking of blocked triple-doubles.
Getting tired of this statement was indeed Uncle Mu's pretense/force.
But he really took it too.
The first year of the new season.
Uncle Mu had 10 blocked in a single game, but unfortunately he only had 9 rebounds in that game, and missed the triple-double of blocks in his rookie season.
At the beginning of the second season, Uncle Mu recorded a triple-double of 7 points, rebounds and blocks in three years.
Except for the legendary Russell and Chamberlain.
Hakeem Olajuwon was the player with the most blocked triple-doubles in NBA history, with eight so far.
The second place was Uncle Mu's 7-block triple-double.
He took out his own triple-double in this wave, and really just wanted Luke not to be too proud.
Pride is not a quality a young player should have.
Uncle Mu's familiarity also made the Georgetown players quickly adapt to the NBA center at the All-Star level.
After a period of communication, before leaving, Mutombo specifically threw a sentence to Luke:
"Luke, in our first game in the NBA, I will welcome you with a block and triple-double~"
The gift for this junior to enter the NBA was a triple-double!
"This is really a top-notch greeting."
Luke smiled: "I just don't know who'll give it to whom."
As the saying goes, the back waves of the river push the front waves.
No one knows whether the back waves will slap the front waves to death on the beach.
What was the gift of this triple-double of blocks, which Uncle Mu will give to Luke?
Or will Luke give it to Uncle Mu?
The two did not admit defeat, and finally smiled at each other.
Sending away Mutombo, Georgetown's winning streak continues.
During the tour, the strongest opponent they encountered was not the defending champion Villanova Wildcats.
Instead, it was last season's runner-up team, the Connecticut Huskies!
Last season, the Huskies were already the runner-up team in the Big East, and this year's goal was to win the NCAA Championship.
Their original imaginary enemy was the Villanova Wildcats, who lost to last season's final.
As a result, the wildcats really pulled their hips this year.
Not only was it blown up by Georgetown, but it was also not a match for Connecticut.
The two teams that blood abused the defending champion finally ushered in a head-to-head confrontation.
Although the knockout round had not yet begun, from the outside world, this tour match between Connecticut and Georgetown could be seen.
Basically, this year's Big East championship game.
The final divisional league champion would only be between these two teams.
Before the much-anticipated Connecticut-Georgetown game.
