Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Louisville, Kentucky.

University of Louisville Basketball Hall.

Today is the game between the University of Louisville and Syracuse University. The Syracuse University Oranges came to the locker room early to prepare.

Coach Fox and Assistant Coach Harry had serious expressions. The two did not enter the locker room, but just stood at the door, and there was a clamor along the player tunnel.

That was the sound of the fans in the arena, and from the college of the sound, you could tell there were a lot of fans, at least thousands.

"It is indeed one of the most profitable teams in the ncaa. With so many fans, how can they not make money?" Assistant Coach Harry couldn't help but sigh.

The revenue sources of the ncaa team include ncaa league dividends, sponsorship, social donations (sports donations, the designated part must be used for sports construction) and so on...

Among the more than 300 teams in the ncaa, the University of Louisville is one of the most profitable teams, earning an average of tens of millions of dollars a year, which is not much better than some NBA teams.

Most of this comes from social donations and commercial sponsorships.

The reason for this is because the University of Louisville Cardinals have always maintained sufficient competitiveness. They are an old and strong team. They have won the ncaa championship twice, and they have a very large number of loyal fans. There will be a lot of fans watching the game, so it is very popular with sponsors and can also get a lot of social donations.

When you come to the home of the Cardinals of the University of Louisville, people will be shocked by the fiery home atmosphere and the large number of spectators.

"Coach." Assistant coach Harry sighed: "Today's game is not easy to play, the University of Louisville is not the opponents before."

The strength of the University of Louisville is not comparable to that of the University of Cincinnati before it.

Although the University of Louisville only won the third place in the Big East conference last season, it still qualified for the ncaa championship because of its outstanding strength.

After entering the top 64 tournament, they passed all the way, entered the "Sweet Top 16", and finally reached the top eight.

Even if he didn't make it to the end, he was able to make it to the quarter-finals, and his strength was evident.

Coach Fox turned his head and glanced at the players in the locker room, and said: "This is a challenge and a test for us. We have been training with combat in the previous games, and it is almost time to test the results of the training. ."

"Yeah." Assistant Harry nodded, looking forward and nervous.

Today is the real test.

in the locker room.

The players are also talking, all with serious expressions.

They also played against each other last season, two games in the regular season, one away game and one home game, and once in the playoffs. As a result, Syracuse University failed in all three games. And every time he lost very simply, the one that lost the least points also lost 9 points, the difference can be imagined.

So facing the University of Louisville, all the players at Syracuse University were a little nervous. For them, this was an invincible and terrible opponent.

"From the lineup point of view, the University of Louisville this season is not much different from last season, center Landers and guard Todd are both there."

"These two guys are not easy."

"yes......"

Several players mentioned Landers and Todd from the University of Louisville with deep fear in their voices. Holbert had a complicated expression and frowned.

Center Landers and guard Todd are the two core players of the University of Louisville, one inside and one outside, supporting the University of Louisville Cardinals.

Landers is 211cm tall, has a long arm, and has a very strong physical fitness. He is known as the "inside monster". He has excellent confrontation ability, movement speed, and bounce and explosive power. , 8.5 rebounds.

This season he performed even better. After several regular season games, he averaged 19.4 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, a double-double of nearly 20+10.

And defender Todd is not far behind. He is 192cm tall. He is a shooting guard. He has excellent physical fitness, comprehensive skills and outstanding scoring ability. Averaged 22.4 points per game, the highest scoring player on the team.

But don't underestimate this 22.4 points, a strong team like the University of Louisville generally scores more scattered, because it does not need to rely on a certain player.

In such a team, they can still get 22.4 points per game. If they are placed in some weak teams, it will not be a big problem to get 27 or 8 points in a game.

With these two people, the University of Louisville will never be much weaker than last season, and may even be stronger than last season.

Because the University of Louisville has also played several regular season games, and achieved a record of 5 wins and 0 losses, without a loss.

Hearing the discussions of his teammates, Butler narrowed his eyes, his blood was boiling, and said to Qin Hao, "Qin, I'm a little excited."

"Haha." Qin Hao laughed, "My big sword is already hungry and thirsty. The previous opponents were too weak, and I didn't have the chance to give my best. It looks like I can have a good fight today."

Qin Hao is full of expectations for the upcoming game.

No one is more eager for a strong opponent than Qin Hao, because only a strong opponent can make it easier for him to reach that "tipping point" and make him progress faster.

......

at the same time.

In another locker room, the players of the University of Louisville are also discussing that, as a strong team, they have the arrogance of a strong team and do not take Syracuse University in their eyes. Even though Syracuse University has won six consecutive victories, those opponents are just weak teams.

So the atmosphere in the locker room is relaxed at the moment, and the players are sitting together in groups of three or five.

"Syracuse University has played really well this season. It's a six-game winning streak."

"Oh, after today, their winning streak will end."

"The Chinese named Qin, and the Butler, I heard that they are very powerful. These two guys have been spreading their fame very quickly recently."

"Averaging a dozen points per game is not bad for a rookie, but that's actually it. Well, it's probably about the same as Holbert, but Holbert is just Todd's underdog."

A group of players laughed lightly.

Hearing the players' conversation, head coach Dawn frowned and said with a stern face: "Don't underestimate your opponent, Syracuse University's six-game winning streak is by no means accidental, let alone luck."

"Yes, coach."

"Don't worry, we won't take it lightly."

A group of players spoke.

But looking at them, Coach Dawn knew that they didn't listen. He shook his head and didn't say more, the game was about to start anyway.
