Chapter 92 - Victory
"Guys, follow my rhythm—" Allen Ray said to the camera, "beyonce!" (Beyonce)
The person around me was about to pronounce the name, but a person who was ignorant of the current affairs said, "Why do you need to pronounce Beyoncé? I think 'cheese' also meets the needs of taking photos."
Lei's smile was as warm and innocent as a ghost: "Are you sure you want to compete with me?"
Wei Xia knew that his heart was burning like a flame, so it was best not to touch his brows.
Therefore, his approach is, "It's pretty good, Beyoncé is just Beyoncé, as long as you are happy, I don't have much opinion."
Tip, not much opinion is also an opinion.
Wei Xia didn't continue to struggle because he didn't want to see Lei say "broken" in front of the photographer of Sports Illustrated.
But he still has to say in his heart that he misses "cheese" more than "Beyoncé".
The Wildcats' last time they topped the Sports Illustrated cover dates back to the 1985 victory over Georgetown University to win the national championship.
This year, they have not played in the national championships and have not even started the divisional playoffs. Just after the regular season, Sports Illustrated will make them on the cover of the next issue.
reason?
Winning all 27 regular season games.
Looking at the history of NCAA, the regular season wins have only 5 times.
It's the sixth time for the Wildcats, and it's been 15 years since the last one.
Wei Xia is the core of the team, but the middle position belongs to Lei.
During his 27-game winning streak, he averaged 12 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists per game, maintaining his usual level.
Randy Fery is on the right side, and he also averages 13 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game.
As the core of the team, Wei Xia averaged 23.4 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.8 blocks and 2.5 steals during the regular season win.
As one of the hottest players in the college league, major draft prediction lists predicted that he would be selected in the previous five picks at the 2005 draft.
Wei Xia has several problems with the NBA at present.
Whether the shot is in or not depends on God's mood.
If you position the guard, you have a poor shooting plan, you have a D-3 or not. If you position the power forward and you are too short, you will definitely not be able to bear it if you put your body in the NBA and want to play in the inside line.
Even with a significant hidden danger, scouts still think he can't fall out of the top five unless a team is stupid or a team with a brain problem gets a high-level signing and has no reason not to choose him.
The regular season ended, and the divisional playoffs followed one after another.
The Wildcats successfully won the championship last year, and this year they are undoubtedly the number one seed, facing other playoff teams in the Big East, determined to play dominant power.
In the first game of the playoffs, the team played against the University of Pittsburgh Black Panthers, who ranked No. 1 in the regular season last season.
The Panthers fell into the hands of the Wildcats last year, and the Big Cats vs. Kittens again. After the tentative test of the game, Wei Xia hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer and the rhythm of the game entered the hands of the Wildcats.
Wei Xia took out the strength of the NCAA's first striker, and dominated the periphery and wings of the field from offense to defense.
His speed killed his opponent, and his aggressiveness on the opponent collapsed.
At halftime, 15 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals in 1-on-1 defense.
"Some people say wish can only attack weak teams, which is an extremely incorrect impression stream. Look at the University of Pittsburgh, they have no way to use wish!"
In the second half, Wei Xia made another buzzer-beating three-pointer.
"Pittsburgh is a bit unlucky. Usually wish has to play ten regular season games before throwing a three-pointer. They scored two tonight." At the end of the game, Jay Wright quipped at reporters, "It seems that even God wants them to lose."
Including the playoffs, Villanova's winning streak reached 28 games.
Not over yet.
In the second game of the playoffs, they played against Virginia College.
Virginia Academy is a team with average strength, players without NBA prospects. There are only three players in the team who averaged double-digit points per game, but there are seven players who averaged more than 7 points per game.
A team that is a soldier in the nation is effective in the university league, and countless teams with dim stars have achieved great success in history.
Compared with Virginia Academy, Villanova has brilliant stars.
That night, four of the five starters scored in double digits, and Jason Fraser played his career masterpiece, with 15 points and 16 rebounds in a single game.
Wei Xia felt bad, and she relied on counterattacks and empty cuts to score 17 points and 8 rebounds, as well as 7 assists made by Fraser.
Villanova has achieved 29 consecutive victories so far.
They easily walked to the highest stage of the Big East Championship.
Opposite the stage is Connecticut.
The two teams met for two consecutive years in the championship game of the Great Eastern Conference Championship, with a total of nine players with NBA prospects fighting each other.
The Wells Fargo Center witnessed the epic battle.
Rudy Gay swept away the previous decline against Wei Xia and contributed 21 points.
Following the regular season game 17 against Syracuse, Villanova is close to losing again.
10 minutes before the end of the second half, Connecticut led by 11 points and they were about to win.
Suddenly, Wei Xia hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer.
Last year's game appeared in Jim Cahon's mind, and Wei Xia also hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer in that game.
Like that game, Villanova started to take the lead from Wei Xia's buzzer-beating three-pointer. They awakened their competitive consciousness and confrontational instincts deep in their hearts, and used high-intensity oppressive defense to make Guy and the browless man missed consecutive offenses.
Wei Xia's counterattack was as fast as lightning, and he showed his real skills in front of scouts from more than 20 NBA clubs.
A moment before the end of the game, Wei Xia encountered strict defense, and he staggered and threw the ball and equalized the buzzer.
The atmosphere of the court was instantly burning like a burning fire.
Entering overtime, Connecticut is difficult to compete with the rampage Wei Xia.
Half a minute before overtime, Wei Xia used an inhumane frontal super-hand dunk to make Charlie Veranova lose the qualification for the game - the five fouls without eyebrows left the court.
The departure of the Wumei Men was the beginning of Connecticut's complete collapse. During the entire overtime period, the Wildcats always took the initiative, pressing the Husky to beat him up. When the game time returned to 0 points, Villanova defended the championship of the Big East League Championship with a 9-point advantage.
