Harvard University is about to usher in their first game of the NCAA Ivy League season 02-03 season. In this game, they were at home to welcome Columbia University, which ranked second in the Ivy League last year. Although in the college basketball industry across the United States, these two teams are simply confrontation between ants, but for these two teams, it is an extremely important game. First, NCAA is far superior to NBA in terms of influence in the United States. Second, both sides are teams within the Ivy League. It would be fine if they can't fight abroad. If they are still overwhelmed by their opponents in the civil war, it would be too shameless.

The game was held on weekends. At this moment, Boston City was already a bit chilly, but the atmosphere on campus was hot. It was a festive game. You can see guys discussing the game everywhere on campus. Of course, there are many people who have opened underground bets, but they are all optimistic about away games. The Columbia team, who is optimistic about away games, won: on the one hand, the opponent is strong, and on the other hand, Harvard's number one rookie this year seems to be unable to play because of poor test scores. This directly led to Harvard's not being favored at home. There is no way. The dealer is always the most practical side, and the odds can often reflect the gap between the two sides most directly.

Before the game, a figure rushed into the Harvard team's locker room. After he took off his sunglasses and took off his hat, the others could see clearly that it was Lucas.

"Why are you here until now? Our preparations are almost done!" Captain Reed scolded unhappily. Yang Xiao's non-combat attrition had already made him very upset, and Lucas was late. The current freshman is really a bit out of tune.

"Sorry!" Lucas said obediently, but his swaying eyes showed that his attention was not focused on the conversation, but his eyes kept flashing as if they were flashing. Judging from his excited expression, it seemed that there was something else worth being happy about, but obviously the people on the basketball team didn't know him much, so they let him go.

The game is about to begin, and for a team, the importance of the first game of a season is self-evident, especially for young people, once the momentum of the game rises, they may continue to play some beautiful games, and once they are hit hard at the beginning of the league, these players may sink and end another failed season.

But for Harvard basketball team, things are not without a turnaround. Derek Bell looked at the assistant coach and said, "Yang Xiao is taking the make-up exam. If everything goes well, he still has time to participate in today's game, but he may be late."

"Everything goes well?" the assistant coach looked at Bell with incredible eyes and said, "Have you ever had any connection with this word since he came to Boston? He is synonymous with trouble!"

"Do you know, I believe in fate." Derek's eyes were a little distracted and he said quietly, "Since this guy, Destiny, has arranged Tommy Young to enter Harvard University, he will never abandon him!"

Obviously, if Harvard supporters knew that the team's head coach actually placed his hopes on his illusory fate, they would not know if they would be so angry that they vomited blood and even turned against each other on the spot.

But at least Yang Xiao couldn't feel it at this moment. He was in a state of extreme fatigue. Not everyone could survive this. If Lin Jia and Ouyang Yi had not been able to "help" him with all kinds of miserable stimulation methods, Yang Xiao would definitely not be able to support him alone.

History professor Rick looked at the only candidate in front of him. In fact, Yang Xiao was answering the questions and he was evaluating him. So far, although this kid has not reached the average level, there is no problem with passing this time. Professor Rick is not unfamiliar with this recent topic. After all, the bets between the two directors of the board of directors are now known to the whole school, and some people have even said hello to Professor Rick. Once this kid fails, Professor Rick's promotion will be realized in a short period of time.

Of course, Professor Rick is not such a person. Just like he would not let go of the boy in front of him who is extremely important to the basketball team, he would not deliberately make things difficult for this Chinese student. He could see that this boy has not had a good rest recently. For Professor Rick, the decision of whether this boy can pass the test is the result, and only the result is the result.

Seeing Yang Xiao answering questions calmly, Ouyang Yi and Lin Jia in the corridor outside were really anxious and angry. They didn't sleep much. It seemed that the boy didn't realize that the competition was about to begin.

The game is about to begin. At least on the surface, the Columbia team is full of momentum. They did not even make a shot in their pre-match warm-up practice, but ended the attack with a dunk. Obviously, before the game begins, they are ready to put a lot of pressure on their opponents at home. At least their effect seems to be a little bit: after every dunk that destroys the basket, there will be cheers on the scene. I don’t know if it is a fan from Columbia University or a fan of Harvard University who turned against each other. According to the gangster news, the total bets absorbed in today’s game have exceeded 1 million US dollars. In popular terms, it is "at Harvard University game, winning against the opponent is equivalent to putting the money in his pocket. The only risk is whether the game will be interrupted for some reason."

Of course, some people have raised the view that Harvard University is too optimistic about the odds of 10-1, but there is no room in the hearts of fanatical gamblers that can accommodate this very calm view. There is no way. Whether in terms of historical record or team strength, Harvard University is completely at a disadvantage. Moreover, although there are many spectators at Harvard University's home team, the atmosphere at home is not very warm. Compared with those devil's home courts that can bring infinite power to the team, it is obviously not the same level.

There is no way, there are too many "civilized people" here.

At Harvard University, Lucas always smiled at the corner of his mouth. Compared with the grim faces of others, he seemed very abnormal today, and captain Reed still looked worried, as if the audience members who were present owe him money. This also made the audience who supported Harvard University lack confidence. Think about it, if the captains of a team are like this, can they still expect them to achieve anything else?

Shu Zifei was still sitting on the sidelines with her eyes looking extremely deep. She didn't know where he was looking. From time to time, female fans tried to go up and say hello to him, but were driven far away by his iceberg-like actions. Shu Zifei's right leg was stretched straight. Anyone who knew him knew that this was to relieve pain from his knees. To be honest, the former Los Angeles high school MVP, Chinese player Shu Zifei's basketball career had already ended before it even began.

However, Shu Zifei's calm face could not last long. As a player from the Columbia University team walked towards him, he suddenly stood up, and his calm image just now swept away. He stared at the other party, as if fire was about to spit out of his eyes.

"Hey, Shu, are you still like this? Actually, I'm surprised that you are still playing basketball. Are you used to the feeling of failure? If you are not used to it, I can give you another impressive memory!" The person on the opposite side came over, a little shorter than Shu Zifei, but he was also an Asian, but his accent was not as beautified as Yang Xiao or Shu Zifei, but with a hint of awkwardness, but he was Shu Zifei's old acquaintance, Japanese Hideki Kojima.

Although most readers are not clear like the authors before yesterday, Hideki Kojima and Shu Zifei are actually very familiar opponents, or it is more suitable to be called enemies. Since the Los Angeles high school league, these two people have been opponents. Unlike college basketball that emphasizes tactical cooperation and team-based combat, high school basketball can determine the outcome of the game. In this case, Shu Zifei, who is slightly better at the ball, completely suppressed Hideki Kojima, and Hideki Kojima and Shu Zifei are both students of the same class. In this way, in the Los Angeles area, Hideki Kojima was called "the second-year-old" at that time. In any case, even if foreigners do not understand Chinese slang, this sounds like a good name.

But there is another saying in China: thirty years Hedong and thirty years Hexi. After entering the university stage, Shu Zifei and Gangdao Xiushu's situation completely changed. In the two matches last year, Shu Zifei lost to Gangdao Xiushu, and one of them was defeated by Gangdao Xiushu at the last moment of the game. It was not that Shu Zifei's strength last year was worse than Gangdao Xiushu, but that the strength of Harvard men's basketball team is not on the same level as Columbia University.
