I’m Really Playing Basketball

Chapter 880: Xiao Xiao Chen's counterattack!

This year's NCAA final is between Marquette University and the University of Kansas.

When Chen Xiao came to New Orleans, the NCAA atmosphere here was already very warm.

Although the NBA has become the most popular basketball game in the United States over the years, the NCAA's share has not changed much.

In other words, the NBA has become the first basketball game in the United States, not because the NCAA is too bad, but because the NBA is too strong.

So, it's not that the NCAA is unpopular, but the NBA is too popular.

After all, the current era of the NBA is definitely the greatest era in the history of the NBA, not to mention the NCAA. In the entire American sports world, except for the NFL, no league can stop the rise of the NBA.

Otherwise, Chen Xiao would not have gained so much influence in the United States and the world.

Compared with the NCAA finals in previous years, this year's NCAA has attracted more attention.

Why do you say that.

Because of the two teams that made it to the finals, Marquette University and the University of Kansas are both dark horses in a certain sense.

These two teams are actually giants.

But this year, these two teams are both dark horses.

Why do you say that.

Let's start with the University of Kansas.

No player on the Kansas team was ranked in the top 20 in the nation by the time he graduated from high school.

In other words, this team, in fact, did not have any player in high school who was recognized as a five-star high school student in the United States.

The player ranked the highest among high school students in the United States is their inside core David McCormack.

David McCormack is the No. 30 high school student in the United States for 18 years, a graduate of Oak Hill High School.

As a talented student who graduated from Oak Hill High School, perhaps the most famous high school in basketball in the United States, his ranking is not in the top 20. It is definitely not a problem of the school and attention, the only possibility is his own problem.

In fact, this is indeed the case. After McCormack came to the university, he averaged 3.9 points and 3.1 rebounds in the first year, 6.9 points and 4.1 rebounds in the second year, and this year, he averaged 10.6 points and 7 rebounds in his senior year.

From the data point of view, this really does not look like a child of heaven.

From the data point of view, he is an ordinary genius who has gradually improved step by step, not like Wade, Anthony, Durant, Beasley, who can kill the Quartet even as a freshman. That kind of genius.

And he, the 30th high school student in the United States, graduated from Oak Hill University. He is already considered the most talented among the students of the University of Kansas.

In the quarterfinals with the NCAA, he scored 10 of 12 points, scored 25 points and 9 rebounds, and led the team to sweep Villanova University.

In the final against the University of North Carolina, he was 7-of-15, scoring a team and game-high 15 points and 10 rebounds.

And in Kansas University's reversal of North Carolina in the semifinals, what did the other heroes of this team look like?

Jaylen Wilson, who also scored 15 points, was the 51st high school student in the United States in 2019, averaging 11.1 points and 7.4 rebounds this year.

The white guard Christian Brown, who scored 12 points, was a junior this year and only played the main force this year. When he graduated from high school, he did not even have a national ranking. He was just an ordinary student. But as an ordinary person, three years have made him an excellent shooter who can average 14.1 points per game.

The guard Ochai Agbaji, who also scored 12 points, is the team's leading player and the player with the most points per game. This season, he can average 18.8 points per game, which is not counted in the NCAA. Low scoring, and he's also one of the best 3-point shooters in the NCAA, averaging 2.6 3-pointers on 40 percent or more per game.

But in the same way, don't look at the outstanding performance of Abagi, who is a senior now, but when he graduated from high school, he also did not have a national ranking. He was also an ordinary basketball teenager, unknown.

And backup guard Remy Martin, who came off the bench in the game against North Carolina and scored 14 points, also did not have a national ranking when he graduated from high school.

However, this small guard in the senior year is more interesting and not ordinary than others, because he is a senior.

Yes, he is one of the very few fifth graders in the NCAA.

He was a senior at Arizona State University for the first four years, and was the leading guard at Arizona State, averaging 19.1 points per game in his senior year.

Arizona State University, which he led last season, did not perform well in the NCAA game. After completing his studies this season, he transferred to the University of Kansas by way of further studies.

His physical quality is very average, no one would think that he has the prospect of the NBA, so he left the NCAA without playing for four years, either to enter the NBA, or to have an obsession with the NCAA championship.

After arriving at the University of Kansas, he became a backup, but when it came to the NCAA National Championships, his performance became more and more outstanding.

Especially in the round of 16 game against Providence University, the team's leading player Abagi performed badly. It was he, the substitute, who scored 23 points and led the team to defeat the opponent with difficulty and advance to the quarterfinals. , which finally started the madness at the University of Kansas.

This is the Kansas team.

Their head coach, Bill Self, is a well-known coach in the United States. He was inducted into the Naismith Hall of Fame in 2017. This is a team with mediocre talents, which can be similar to the Spurs in history. Bobo took a group of civilian players to kill the Quartet in the NBA.

Let's go back to the other team in this year's NCAA finals, Marquette University.

The 56-year-old Tom Klein is a more well-known coach, a teacher of well-known NBA stars such as Chen Xiao, Wade, Ron Howard, Durant, Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Beasley.

However, this year's Marquette University is more civilian than Kansas.

This is not the lack of attractiveness of Marquette University.

But there are special circumstances.

Last season, Marquette University's leading star, second-year guard DJ Caton, inexplicably declared for the draft after his sophomore year.

Immediately afterwards, the team's leading insider, a talented first-year insider, Dawson Garcia announced his transfer to the University of North Carolina.

He could start at Marquette University in his freshman year and averaged 13 points per game. He didn't want to be a core insider at Marquette University, so he had to go to North Carolina University as a backup.

Two of the team's former team-building core talents suddenly ran away, what can Tom Klein do?

The reason why these two guys ran away was mainly because Xiao Xiao Chen announced that he was joining Marquette University.

As Chen Xiao's son and one of the top three geniuses in the United States, Chen Xiao went to Marquette University, which belongs to the Son of **** returning to his loyal Israel.

As the team's top two leaders, Dawson Garcia and DJ Caton, either play supporting roles, or they can only follow Judas and run with a backstab.

Obviously, neither DJ Caton nor Garcia want to be supporting roles.

As for teaming up with Marquette Mitaka, this is not a joke.

Have you ever seen a junior player and a freshman player, can they form three eagles?

Are there such three eagles in the history of Marquette University?

Wade, Chen Xiao, Ron Howard.

The first generation of Mitaka, they are first-time players and have a very close personal relationship.

Durant, Curry, Jordan.

Beasley, Curry Jr., Jimmy Butler.

The second and third generation Mitaka, they knew each other before they went to college.

Especially in the second generation, Durant is Jordan's apprentice, Jordan is the Bobcats head coach, Curry is the son of the Bobcats assistant coach old Curry, and Jordan is the son of the Bobcats head coach Jordan.

Let's just put it this way, the people behind Caton and Garcia told two years that you are not worthy of the Holy Son group Mitaka.

You only give the Son of Tea and water, and in the future, at Marquette University, it will be your turn to eat the rest of the Son.

As the only son of the basketball **** on the bright side, the Holy Son came to Marquette University to brush data, brush qualifications, and enter the NBA.

In the future, Marquette University's play style is definitely not for results. For the NCAA championship, the team's only play style is to make the Son of God play comfortably. Maybe the team will often change the style of play in the future, and how to play the Son of God is comfortable.

Those of you who serve tea and water don't even have exclusive tactics.

To be fair, it makes perfect sense for the people behind them to say that to them.

If Xiao Xiao Chen is not a well-known genius in the United States, maybe they can form three eagles, and even Xiao Chen can help them.

But Xiao Xiao Chen is the third in the United States.

And they're only in the top 30 in America.

They are all well-known talents in the United States, but there are also differences in grades.

So, why do you play three eagles with him?

You have a father of God.

Or, are you also the top ten or even top five geniuses in the United States?

More importantly, Caton and Xiaoxiaochen are teammates, a junior and a freshman. Xiaoxiaochen has four years of trial and error, so he can play as a senior.

But Caton is about to face the issue of the draft, and it is impossible to accompany Xiao Chen to trial and error.

In this case, when Xiao Chen announced to join Marquette University, Caton directly announced his participation in the draft, which is understandable.

At the same time, Garcia's announcement of transfer is also understandable.

If you don't have your own exclusive tactics in the NCAA, then you can go to the NBA?

When the Son came to Marquette University, except for the Son, everyone next to him was a mustard.

Do you want to be the protagonist?

dream!

Although I started playing from the bench at the University of North Carolina, I can become the protagonist as a backup.

Going to North Carolina is much more likely than staying by Xiao Chen's side.

That's what's been very interesting about Marquette this season.

Because of the arrival of Xiao Xiao Chen, the top two talents of the team have all left.

Then Marquette University also has a hard time recruiting top talents in the United States.

Even if there is a genius who dreams of being the protagonist, he will never go to Marquette University to be teammates with Xiao Chen.

If Xiao Chen is not at Marquette University, but at Duke North Carolina, where Chen Xiao's influence is not so great, they are willing to be teammates with Xiao Chen and use Xiao Chen's influence to elevate themselves 's worth.

But at Marquette University, even if you perform better than Xiao Xiao Chen, you can only play with the Son of God. At Marquette University, Xiao Xiao Chen is a real god.

Under such circumstances, any genius who has the pursuit will be afraid to avoid Xiao Chen.

Of course, you can't say that Xiaoxiaochen is a black hole of a star. Xiaoxiaochen's identity is still attractive to some special talents.

For example, the current second-in-command of Marquette University, fifth-year player Darryl Morsell (Darryl Morsell), the former main player of Marquette University, is very willing to serve as a tea and water dragon beside Xiao Xiaochen .

At the University of Maryland, Daryl Moser is also a role player. Although his senior year won the best defensive player in the NCAA major leagues such as Big-ten, it is clear that such an honor is not worthy of entering the NBA.

For him who wants to enter the NBA with all his heart, isn't Xiao Chen the best back door?

To be a dog for Xiao Chen, make Xiao Chen cool, and make Xiao Chen happy, can Xiao Chen not help him?

Xiao Xiao Chen's father, how did God Chen Xiao help Matt Barnes?

Therefore, Xiao Xiao Chen has many strengths in the NCAA, but there is no hope of entering the NBA, and people who are extremely ambitious and eager to enter the NBA are attractive.

Darryl Moser has been beside Xiao Chen this season, and it can be described as a desperate performance. The season scoring has increased from 9 points per game at the University of Maryland to 14 points per game this season.

In addition to points, rebounds, assists, steals, shooting percentage, three-point shooting percentage, are all improved.

The outfield combination of Marquette University formed by him and Xiao Xiaochen is also the strongest in the NCAA defense and offense.

At the same time, Justin Lewis, a 2020 All-America 89 high school student who was a substitute at Marquette University last year, under the leadership of Xiao Chen, can average 17 points and 8 rebounds per game this season.

The power forward, who is only 2.01 meters, has a wingspan of 2.19 meters. He is very strong and has excellent shooting range. He can shoot beyond the three-point line, and can make 2 three-pointers per game. He can also play low singles. Can attack and defend, very comprehensive, but the speed is a bit slow.

However, in the NCAA, being slower is not a disadvantage.

He was a substitute for Garcia last season. After Garcia left, he played a performance that could enter the NBA next to Xiao Chen.

These two people, plus Xiao Chen, are the key to Marquette University reaching the finals this season.

By the way, Xiao Chen's NCAA data this season is 24.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, with 55% shooting from the field and 45% three-point shooting.

Xiao Xiaochen's performance in the NCAA this season is terrifying.

Before the start of the national competition, because Marquette University's record was not so good, many people said that Xiao Xiaochen was studying with the Holy Son at Marquette University, and the data was brushed.

But after the NCAA National Championship, everyone was shocked to see that Xiao Chen was like his father back then, scoring 30 points in almost every game.

Xiaoxiao Chen really has the strength to hit this statistic!

Even before the national competition, Xiao Xiao Chen kept playing.

So much so that many experts now say that as long as Xiao Chen can lead Marquette University to win the championship, then he will surpass his father and become the strongest freshman player in NCAA history.

After all, even with a team like Marquette University, which was a rotten fish after Caton and Garcia left, even if the freshman Chen Xiao brought it along, he wouldn't be able to win the championship, right?

The little stone Buddha on the back line is so terrifying!

Chen Xiao had already predicted that his son would be so terrifying in his first season in the NCAA.

When the 2021 Olympic Games were over, Xiao Chen was promoted from B+ to A-.

You know, Wade only raised his strength to A- when he left the university.

And Xiao Xiaochen's style of play is more suitable for the NCAA than Wade's.

Xiaoxiaochen's shooting is accurate. He is more than 2 meters tall at the guard position, has a very high wingspan, and can pass the ball.

This makes him almost indiscriminate in the NCAA.

Every year, the NCAA has a lot of players who can be killed in the NCAA but are not even selected in the second round of the NBA draft.

And Xiaoxiaochen's style of play is the culmination of this type of players who are suitable for NCAA play.

Therefore, when Xiao Chen came to the NCAA, when the media talked about him, they all said that he was the son of the basketball **** Chen Xiao.

And now...

When Chen Xiao appeared on the scene of the game, Pierce, who was the commentator of the game, looked at the big screen and said with a smile: "The person facing the broadcast camera is Marquette University player Moon-Chen (moon-Chen). Chen's father, an ordinary NBA star."

After Pippi retired, he was always so amazed that he died endlessly.

The opponent who always loves to avenge his personal revenge when he diss his players.

But this time, Chen Xiao will definitely be very happy to hear it.

This shows that Xiao Xiao Chen has really counterattacked!
