Chapter 31 Attention from San Antonio

Just when people regretted Chris Paul's lonely Warriors encounter, Wake Forest University was also preparing to do its best to equip him with several capable teammates, but they didn't know that Chris Paul had made up his mind to sign up for the draft this year, because although he failed, he did not lose to Stephen alone, but to a whole. He always believed that no one was his opponent alone, and college basketball did not challenge him. As for the NCAA championship, this kind of game system with too many unexpected situations is not worth wasting his youth for a championship.

At this time, the results of the first round of the game have all come out. Some strong teams like the University of Southern California have defeated the weak teams without any danger, and some weak teams have defeated the strong teams. The University of Washington lost to Mississippi State University, which is far inferior to theirs. Purdue University also lost in the confrontation with the University of Northern Iowa. The University of Texas lost to Brigham Young, which made another surprise comparison. The University of Texas has maintained a very advantageous lead until the last two minutes of the game, but was overtaken by Brigham Young within two minutes. After the game, the main player of the University of Texas Anthony White hugged his head and cried on the spot, which also disappointed many people with the player who was expected to enter the lottery draft.

In the second round, the opponent of the University of Southern California was Michigan State University. Although this team does not have any superstar players, it has very average strength and is not short of good players. Shannon Brown, Morris Eger, and Paul Davis are all very capable players. According to the experts' predictions, the University of Southern California will lose to Michigan State University at a slight disadvantage, and the number of people optimistic about Michigan State University is far greater than that of the University of Southern California.

It was this kind of unanimous situation that the University of Southern California had a thriving fighting spirit. Cooperd was in the inside and beat Michigan State center Paul Davis to the point where he could not find the southeast, west and north, and had no temper at all. Their outside players did not show their due strength when they encountered Stephen this time, and the University of Southern California easily defeated their opponents.

At this time, the experts who unanimously predicted that the University of Southern California would lose were missing before the game, and the media immediately turned the sensation and praised the players of Southern California for their performance. Even John Rust, who did not get many opportunities to play, was portrayed by them as a player with strong strength.

The media's change of attitude is like this and it is annoying and helpless. However, after the next opponent of the University of Southern California came out, it unanimously agreed that the University of Southern California will definitely lose this time because their opponent is the stronger University of Florida Gators. Although there is no football on the basketball court, it is possible that anything can happen, the University of Florida is a supernova team that has risen in recent years.

Two thousand years ago, the University of Florida was still an unknown team. In addition to the "white chocolate" Williams is famous, there are only two players of McMiller and Haslem. However, after entering the 21st century, the University of Florida suddenly transformed from a bottom-up team and became a strong team among strong teams. In two thousand years, it even reached the NCAA final. In recent years, it has been a regular visitor in the semi-finals. This is a very balanced team. All five starters scored in double digits, and the average score was almost the same. In every game, someone stood up, making it difficult for the opponent to focus on defense.

David Lee, Humphrey, Terrian Green, James White, and this year's freshmen Jokin Noah, Al Horford, and Cory Brewer formed a very terrifying lineup. This team can be very good inside and outside, offense and defense at both ends, and their style of play is varied, which is elusive.

In the second round, facing the opponent of Kentucky in the same district, the University of Florida beat the opponents on both sides of the offense and defense, showing their increasingly better and better competitive state. Most experts believe that in the final four, there will inevitably be a seat at the University of Florida, and the possibility of them winning the championship is also very high.

The teams in the top 16 are called the "Sweet Top 16". At this time, the game has entered the stage of national attention. Even the regular season of Niu A has come to an end. In order to compete for the playoffs, the game is very hot and cannot attract media attention. However, the betting activities conducted by Niu A players are particularly eye-catching.

Just when most people are not optimistic, the game between the University of Southern California and the University of Florida began. Since the game was held in San Antonio, the game also attracted some of the coaching staff of the Spurs to the scene. Although the Spurs' signing position is very low this year, the Spurs have always been able to find good babies in low picks, which is also the result of their focus on the game.

At the beginning of the game, the University of Southern California was ahead for a while. This was because the University of Florida has always been slow to heat up and usually shows off its strength in the second half. This time there was no exception. When the first half ended, the University of Southern California was still two points ahead, but at the beginning of the second half, Terry Green made a three-pointer, which led to the counterattack while overtaking the score.

However, David Lee began to show his power in the inside. This guy was a big man more than two meters tall, but he was a dunker. He used to hit the floor to catch the ball in the McDonald's slam dunk competition in the National High School McDonald's slam dunk. He swung the ball and switched the ball and beat James White, who was in full swing at the time, and then the two joined the University of Florida. In the competition at the school, although the two players were different in positions, David Lee still impressed coach Donovan with his good skills and diligent attitude. Although James White was more talented.

David Lee has excellent bounce, explosive power and flexibility coordination, but as a white forward player, he did not position himself as the next big bird Larry Bird or the next Nowitzki. He relied on his tough on-field style and good defensive awareness and accurate judgment of rebounding landing points. He started as a defensive blue-collar worker. During his four years in college, he fully honed his footsteps in the penalty area, held a rough and fierce defense position and his understanding of tactics, and at the same time he also made his body a tough guy like steel.

When facing Kupad, who is both top-notch in physical strength, he is not at all a disadvantage. At the same time, although he is not as rich as Kupad in offensive skills, he uses his steps and experience to prevent Kupad from moving to the inside, allowing Kupad to take action outside and reduce his shooting percentage.

During the offense, David Lee made full use of Admundson's height and speed as Jokinoah, who was not as tall as Jokinoah, who was facing him, and kept making balls for Jokinoah. The two of them cooperated in the interior, but Koopard and Admundson were fighting each other and were not opponents at all.

On the outside, Cory Brewer's defense against Knick Young was very good. Nick Young only scored nine points now. Although Stephen's counterattack Humphrey was also defended by Stephen, he scored five points, but he was equally strong. What's the use of defending just by one person? There are also two people, Terrian Green and Cory Brewer.

Although Benjamin kept dispatching troops, Stkemal, John Rust, and Andre Bouwick took turns to play, they could not change the situation on the court. In the end, they had to be cruel and prepared to win with three points. The inside player only had one Cooper and four three-point shooters were left outside. The three-point tactics were either I beat you to death or my suicide tactics. Some teams specialized in this tactics. For example, this year's No. 1 seed University of Illinois specialized in three-point tactics, which had very good results. But can the University of Southern California, which has not practiced much, play this tactic well? Especially Benjamin, after a while, he replaced Stephen again. This guy has no three-point ability at all, so why are he going to go up?

Although Stephen does not have the ability to make three-pointers, he has the ability to grab frontcourt rebounds. Without the guarantee of frontcourt rebounds, he dares to shoot three-pointers unscrupulously. Since the rebounds that missed the three-pointer are mostly more reliable, he just takes advantage of Stephen's strong mobility. Anyway, this kid is like a perpetual motion machine and has no time to be tired at all.

Since Stephen came on the court, basically 80% of the frontcourt rebounds fell into his hands. Because he often grabbed rebounds, Stephen also had some experience in judging the landing point of rebounds. As for the direction and speed of the hand, he could basically tell which direction the landing point was about. He would go there and prepare to grab the rebound. As for the positioning, can anyone stop him?

Anyway, in the eyes of others, I saw that since Stephen came on the court, he had basically not fallen into the hands of the frontcourt rebounds of the University of Southern California. Although Stephen looked embarrassed when he ran all over the court, slowly, others could see how powerful he was.

Although the three-pointer tactics at the University of Southern California did not have any good effect at the beginning, they couldn't help but shoot a lot. With Stephen's rebound, they were relieved and bold when shooting. Soon, Nick Young, Stekemal and Gabu Pruitt adjusted their touch to a hot level. The three-pointer was like an arrow like rain, and the shooting of the University of Florida was unbearable.

When an old man with white hair on the stage saw Stephen jumping out of the crowd of four opponents, and rolling two of them upside down while bringing a three-pointer to St. Kemal on the other side, he showed a very interested look in his eyes.
