One Guard
Chapter 23: 10 feet of fighting spirit
Madness in March, this is the most perfect comment on the NCAA top 68, and the most veritable description. Crazy is the only theme this March.
From the opening match to the final day, there are only twenty short days. All the best college basketball players in the United States gathered here to compete for the final victory in the most tragic way in 20 days.
???? From the first battle to the last battle, the road to becoming a champion only needs six games. You only need to win six games to hold the trophy that symbolizes the highest honor. But these six games will definitely be the six most intense games of the entire NCAA season!
Every year around this time, the eyes of all basketball fans are drawn to March Madness. Even the NBA cannot compare with March Madness in terms of attention.
Fans, scouts, managers and even NBA players will be mesmerized by March Madness.
This is a cruel battlefield, whether you are North Carolina or Duke, as long as you lose a game, you have no chance to start over.
When all these elements are softened together, it forms the most beautiful basketball game!
Now in addition to the players, the head coaches and scouts of each team will also become quite busy. They must collect as much information as possible on their opponents. After all, the NCAA has a much larger team base than the NBA. Standing in front of you is an opponent that you may not even have played against once in several years.
This year, as the champions of the Big Ten, the Bulldogs have naturally become the focus of other teams' observation.
The Butler Bulldogs are not a traditional NCAA basketball powerhouse. They did not officially enter the Division 1 league until 1962. They are just a small school team, but this season, the young coach Stevens took him The Cinderella journey to the 1954 Indiana legend.
On the training ground, everyone is preparing for the battle in an orderly manner. Apart from shooting basketball, Yiyang also spends more and more time in the weight room training.
In March Madness, the intensity of the competition must be completely different from before. The intensity of physical confrontation that Yiyang will suffer will also suddenly increase. Of course, Stevens asked Yiyang to train his body not only for March Madness. After the NBA draft, Yiyang also had to prepare with a stronger body.
An hour earlier, the Bulldogs had learned about their first-round opponents. The University of Texas, will compete against the Bulldogs for the first-round spot!
The players who trained all morning finally got a two-hour break, but at the end of the training, Yiyang found that the expressions of his teammates were still serious.
Yiyang had never seen this kind of situation before. In fact, Yiyang didn't have a very clear idea of the March Madness event. After all, before, he paid much more attention to NBA games than NCAA games.
"Gordon." Just as Hayward was about to go to the restaurant for dinner, he heard Yiyang call out to him from behind.
"Hey buddy, do you want to eat together?" Hayward turned around and hugged Yiyang.
"March Madness...what the hell was it like?"
Hayward was taken aback for a moment, and then his expression became serious again. "We had a good run in the Big Ten last year, but March Madness showed us what a real game is. We lost, got eliminated early and went home. At that time, Coach Stevens told We, he said, this season, we've done everything we should have done, and now we've lost this game, all our goals have been accomplished. Don't be sad because next year, we'll win it all!"
After Hayward finished speaking, he stared at Yiyang for a few seconds. "Try to win it all, this is March Madness, man! We can do it, right?" The white small forward stuck out his left fist.
"Of course." Yiyang's fist collided lightly with Hayward.
After the two-hour break, the players returned to the court one after another. In the first training session in the afternoon, Stevens planned to hold a tactical meeting to let the players have a comprehensive understanding of their opponents.
Originally, Stevens expected to meet a "soft persimmon" in the first round, such as MIT or something.
But unfortunately, the emergence of the University of Texas made the Bulldogs' March Madness journey full of thorns at the beginning.
Stevens hits the start button, and the projector's image is projected onto a white screen. The players watched intently, a University of Texas game was slowly unfolding.
Yiyang, who was originally "facial paralyzed", frowned more and more while watching the game video.
The University of Texas lineup can be described as star-studded, at the small forward position, they have this year's very likely to be selected in the first round of the athletic perimeter, Mike. James. Presumably this guy with an NBA-level body will definitely bring Hayward huge trouble.
As for the center forward, Dexter Pittman, who is 2.11 meters tall and still weighs 129 kilograms after losing weight, will make the three-second zone of the University of Texas extremely tight. Matt Howard, who is relatively thin, can be said to have encountered a real challenge.
Power forward Derek Carecott, a star player who outshone Oden and Durant as a freshman in high school. Although he doesn't have much talent to exploit in his junior year, there is no doubt that it is not that simple for Willie Wesley to take down this opponent.
But on an already star-studded lineup at the University of Texas, the brightest guy is the shortest guy on the court. And this is also the reason why Yiyang frowned tightly.
Avery Bradley, and Yiyang are also rookies who just entered the NCAA this year, a point guard considered by ESPN to be as famous as John Wall in high school. This season, Bradley averaged 11.6 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, and was selected to the best rookie team in the division and was nominated for the best team in the division.
Even though Bradley's statistics are not as gorgeous as Yiyang's, and his honors are not as many as Yiyang's. After all, Yiyang was selected to the best team in the division, not just nominated.
But Bradley's really powerful scoring cannot be reflected in the data. The current Celtics coach Doug Rivers once said in an interview. "Avery is now an NBA-caliber perimeter defender who can guard any 1 in the NCAA league."
That's right, that suffocating defense with the ball is what makes Bradley truly terrifying! For Yiyang, meeting such a strong defensive matchup is bound to become a huge challenge!
After the game tape finished, Stevens turned off the projector. But Yiyang's mind is still full of images of Bradley in the game.
Seeing Yiyang's serious thinking expression, Stevens was filled with infinite expectations.
From the first match against Harlan Gaudi until now, Yiyang can be said to have played quite easily. In the entire Big Ten league, there is no point guard who can make Yiyang feel nervous.
Today, Bradley's solid defense will definitely make Yiyang encounter unprecedented trouble. The genius knows how much strength Yiyang can burst out after encountering troubles!
The reason why Stevens looked forward to it was because this guy Yiyang might surprise even himself!
How can this kid play higher without giving him some pressure?
"Now, you all know how difficult your opponent is to bully." Stevens' voice stopped the discussion among the players.
"Go to the practice field and put in 120% effort! Even if the fucking Jordan is in front of you now, you have to eat Jordan alive! Win it all! This year, our The goal is to win the NCAA championship! Let's go, stop dawdling, and show your energy, guys!" The young marshal's words are full of power that can make young people's blood boil!
"Roar!" At this moment, Yiyang suddenly roared, the fighting spirit condensed in this guy's heart exploded at this moment, he clenched his fists and rushed to the training ground first. Yiyang's abnormal behavior made his teammates even more excited.
Even that cold Yiyang was ignited, and the others were simply a powder keg that could explode at any time!
Stevens, who stayed in the office, smiled with satisfaction. Rivers said that Bradley has an NBA-level defense?
Then Yiyang will let everyone see what a real NBA level is!
March Madness has arrived, and there will be no choice for anyone but to fight.
Either get killed or kill your opponent. Yiyang from Wood District is not a lamb to be slaughtered.
March Madness is not necessarily as crazy as Yellow Lightning!
