Basketball Myth: Super Guard

The University of Tennessee, located in Knoxville, Tennessee, is a first-class public national university in the United States and one of the world's leading universities.

Since there was a preseason game today, many students came to the arena, took a good seat early and waited for the game to start.

The Syracuse University bus arrives at the University of Tennessee at 2 p.m., and the game will be ushered in after a two-hour break.

in the locker room.

The players are actively preparing for the battle, and everyone's eyes are burning with fiery fighting spirit. It is already high fighting spirit that does not need Coach Fox to mobilize.

That's the benefit of the team's roster being established and the system starting to build. A stable roster and team environment allows players to focus on the game.

"Crack!"

The locker room door was pushed open and Coach Fox and Harry walked in.

The team has a total of four coaches, one head coach, and three assistant coaches. Many ncaa teams have this configuration. Some teams even have four or five assistant coaches. They are also equipped with trainers who are responsible for the personal training of the players. Such as fitness trainers, shooting trainers, etc...

Although the NCAA is a college basketball league and the players are unpaid, decades of development have made the NCAA a huge business empire.

Today, the business value of ncaa has approached tens of billions of dollars, and every ncaa college can get a lot of dividends from the ncaa alliance every year.

Many American universities are not funded by the state, and their funding sources are mainly tuition fees, as well as alumni donations, social assistance, and various sports dividends.

Some colleges' sports dividends even account for half of the school's funding.

It is precisely because sports dividends are a huge source of funds for schools that American universities attach great importance to sports construction. School sports students, whether basketball, rugby, or baseball players, are always better than those with academic scholarships. Ba also wants scenery.

Of course, a considerable part of these sports dividends must be used in sports construction, such as building stadiums, adding training facilities, hiring coaches, etc...

The salary of ncaa coaches is quite considerable. If it is some famous coaches, such as old coach K, or coach Billy Donovan, the annual salary is easily millions of dollars, which is not less than that of nba coaches, so old coach K is not at all. Would love to coach in the nba.

Students play ball, make money for the school, and the school earns money and spends it on students to train students... This is the campus sports training system in the United States.

It's just that some people have been criticizing, saying that ncaa is not good for players, that ncaa players are "exploited class", pointing out that ncaa makes so much money, the school divides the money, the coaches divide the money, but the students don't get a dime .

This is actually a misunderstanding. For those students who are playing in the ncaa, they are indeed at a disadvantage, but for those players who are about to enter the ncaa or who have just entered the ncaa, they are actually taking advantage. Other players played hard, and the dividends created were used to develop these players.

The reason why it has been criticized all the time, but the ncaa has not loosened the restrictions, and has always insisted on not paying the players, saying "in order to maintain the purity of the big game", in fact, the deeper reason is that once the ncaa is commercialized, then the United States will The school basketball system would collapse.

The result of commercialization is that the income of some schools has skyrocketed, such as Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky and other famous schools, they will occupy most of the income of ncaa.

That's bad for some of the other, lesser-known colleges that don't get enough sports funding and the ability to develop players.

"coach."

"coach."

Qin Hao and others stood up together.

Coach Fox nodded and said, "Guys, it's time for us to play. We lost the last game, and this one will be our chance for revenge. Play hard and defeat the University of Tennessee!"

"Um."

"We must win this time."

Everyone nodded.

A group of players followed behind, and they left the locker room in a mighty manner and walked out of the player tunnel. Immediately, there were boos, and a gust of wind and tsunami resounded throughout the arena.

Qin Hao is used to it, and Butler is used to it.

Everyone else has seen the world and has experienced these battles for a long time, so they don't care. Coach Fox waved his hand, and everyone walked onto the court and began to warm up.

Then the University of Tennessee players arrived.

Josh, Scott, Fields, Gordon...

Both sides are already familiar with each other, staring at each other from a distance, and there is an invisible fighting intention colliding, and then each warms up and prepares for the game.

After a while, the warm-up is over.

Qin Hao and others returned to the sidelines, and Coach Fox began to point out: "Kent, Jefferson, Butler, Holbert, Qin, you guys start." Then he spread out his tactical board and said, "We have to deal with it first. It is the opponent's twin towers, rushing to the inside for me, causing damage."

"As for Josh."

"Jimmy, Josh is handed over to you. You don't need to worry about attacking. Lock Josh as much as possible for me. As long as Josh is locked, the other side's twin towers will have to do more work, and the more the twin towers do. , the more opportunities we have to make them foul."

After some arrangement, the players nodded in unison.

Finally, Coach Fox looked at Holbert and then at Qin Hao. Qin Hao smiled and said, "Coach, don't worry, a game is a game, and everything is about winning."

"Yeah." Coach Fox nodded with satisfaction.

Not far away, coach Bruce Pearl is also making arrangements.

He glanced at the rest area of ​​Syracuse University and said, "Be sure to keep an eye on Qin, Gordon, you don't care about the rest, keep an eye on him, don't let him shoot threes, even if you let him break through, you can't let him shoot threes. ."

"Understood." Gordon agreed and let Qin Hao break through. There were also twin towers of Scott and Fields on the inside, but if Qin Hao made a three-pointer, it would be trouble.

In the match two days ago, Qin Hao's three-pointer made them tremble.

Coach Bruce Pearl looked at Scott and Fields again, and warned: "You have to pay attention to your actions, the other party will definitely make you foul on purpose, don't be fooled." Then he told Josh again, about Bart Of course he also paid attention to this point, but he had confidence in Josh.

After some arrangements, coach Bruce Pearl waved his hand and signaled the players to come on the field: "Guys, this is our home court, we must defend our home glory, and we must not lose, understand? Don't think of this as a preseason game. , to play it as a regular season."

"clear."

Josh and other five starters agreed in unison and walked onto the court.

Watching the players walk onto the court, Coach Bruce Pearl pinched his chin and frowned slightly.
