NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 42: March Madness, where miracles happen

If audio player doesn't work, press Reset or reload the page.

The finals of the NCAA leagues are over, and 32 championship teams are the first to advance to "March Madness"!

But there are still about 5 days before the real start of March Madness, that is, on March 20, the first round of the NCAA tournament officially begins!

In these 5 days, the NCAA league will select another 33 teams to enter the NCAA tournament.

Then, according to their selected strengths and regions, they are reasonably allocated to the four divisions.

As for the University of Southern California, which has already been promoted, it only needs to use these five days to actively repair and prepare for the competition!

For the rest of the teams, it is the most tormenting. It is okay to say that those with poor records can just prepare for the next season.

It’s okay to say that the league is relatively strong, because it basically guarantees promotion. For example, the Parker Ten League is a relatively strong league in the NCAA. Their league will have at least 4 teams entering the NCAA tournament every year.

So you basically sit back and relax like you're 2-4 in the Parker Ten.

And the most uncomfortable ones are those teams whose record is neither strong nor weak, because they are the least sure of their own destiny!

After Lian Dao and DeRozan took a day off yesterday, their bodies and tense nerves were well relieved.

So he continued to train again this morning. Tim originally wanted them to rest for another day, but seeing two people insisting on training, he couldn't go in to persuade them, so he asked the team doctor to pay attention to these two people at any time and train at the same time. End to help two people relax their muscles!

During this period of competition and high-intensity training, Lian Dao's breakthrough strength has increased from 78 to 79.

Lian Dao's current training focuses on sprint speed and lateral movement speed. Although it is difficult to increase these two items to 80 in a short time, they can be improved a little bit.

If there is no accumulation, it will never be thin. How many points will be needed to exchange points. Besides, skills with a score of 94 or above cannot be improved through points.

Lian Dao didn't want to develop "point dependence". Besides, if the system is no longer available one day, everything will depend on his own self-discipline and hard work.

Destiny is only safe if it is in your own hands!

Time passed quickly. Two days before the start of the tournament, 33 teams for the NCAA tournament had been selected, along with the division divisions and division seed rankings for all NCAA championship teams!

The University of Southern California was still assigned to the Midwest Division as in the previous life.

And it's the No. 2 seed in the Midwest Division.

Although everyone had expected it, the whole team was excited to know that USC was entering the tournament as the No. 2 seed in the Midwest.

Southern California scored in the Midwest Division, and the Arizona Wildcats, which belong to the Parker Ten League, were also divided in the Midwest Division. They played as the No. 12 seed in the Midwest Division.

Lian Dao looked at the Arizona Wildcats on the game sheet in his hand.

Suddenly he remembered something.

The Arizona Wildcats are unremarkable in the Parker Ten League, and this time the Parker Ten League has 6 teams that have reached the championship, and the Arizona Wildcats are the last of these 6 teams.

Of course, the above is not what makes Lian Dao look at it differently.

The really incredible thing about this team is that it went all the way to the top 8 in the last life after playing as the 12th seed in the Arizona Wildcats.

Although it was a pity that he lost to the Louisville Cardinals 64:103 in the end, the record stayed in the top 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

But remember that the Louisville Cardinals are the No. 1 seed.

And the Arizona Wildcats were just a No. 12 seed that almost didn't make the tournament.

He successively eliminated the No. 5 seed team in the top 32 battle, and then eliminated the No. 13 seed team in the top 16 battle.

That's right, the Arizona Wildcats weren't the only team to win with an upset.

The 13th-seeded Cleveland State Vikings knocked out the 4th-seeded Wake Forest Devil Deacon.

And the No. 11 seeded Dayton Flyers eliminated the No. 6 seeded West Virginia Mountaineers.

After recalling the situation of this championship, Lian Dao immediately restrained his previous excitement.

Is USC really safe?

In the NCAA where miracles happen, there will always be a dark horse that will come out strong. As long as you underestimate your opponent a little, the opponent's dagger will directly penetrate your heart.

This is the NCAA Tournament, this is where miracles happen, and this is "March Madness"!

"Boys, don't underestimate your opponents, you must know that every "March Madness", there will be teams that are eliminated early because of underestimating their opponents.

I don't want that to happen to the USC Trojans. "

Lian Dao originally wanted to remind his teammates not to underestimate their opponents. Unexpectedly, the head coach Tim had already noticed that everyone was too excited, and this pot of cold water came at the right time!

"In your hands, the ranking on this piece of paper is only relative. It can only be used as a reference, and it is only a reference. Only when you are fully prepared can you defeat your opponent!

Boys, don't take chances. If you take chances, even if you pass the round and stand in the top 32, you will still fall on the way to the top 16! "

Lian Dao was really shocked by the head coach Tim. If Lian Dao hadn't asked the system and knew that he was the only reborn person, he would have thought Tim was also reborn.

Because in the last life, USC fell on the way to compete for the top 16.

The words of head coach Tim also woke up the over-excited players instantly.

Especially some old students, they have played many games and have seen too many regrets.

They have seen a team with excellent strength, because they underestimated their opponents, many details were not done properly, and they were defeated by their opponents.

They have also seen that after a big lead, they let down their vigilance, shot wildly all over the game, and then their opponents seized the opportunity to overtake the score, thus turning the game against the wind.

Anything can happen until the beep sounds at the end of the game, and the last ball is thrown!

This season at the University of Southern California went so smoothly that even Lian Dao himself felt a little smug!

Seeing the serious expressions of the old students~www.innread.com~ and what Tim said just now, the other freshmen put away their contempt and calmed down completely.

It has to be said that the veteran's experience is not only on the court, but also psychologically.

A team with veterans will be very solid and go further!

Everyone came to the screening room together, carefully watched the opponent's game video, and at the same time analyzed their future defensive players.

As the No. 2 seed, USC is competing against the No. 15 seed in the top 32: the Robert Morris Colonials.

The Robert Morris Colonials are a team in the Northeast Conference, which is the regular season No. 1 and playoff champion of the Northeast Conference.

It is also the only team among the 11 teams in the Northeast League to enter the "March Madness".

This situation is what I said before, the strength of this alliance is not good!

But there is no way, this is the minimum guarantee that the NCAA gives them in order to protect the interests of the minor leagues.

Just like the Ivy League, this league is among the best academically in the United States, but its sports strength is not good.

But in order to protect this kind of alliance, the NCAA will also let the championship team of this league participate in "March Madness".

Although, the strength of this team may not even be as good as the Stanford Cardinals.

But Lian Dao will not underestimate the teams from the minor leagues, because there are many NBA players from the minor league teams.

While looking at the roster of all the players of the team in his hand, he watched the video of the game.

Then Lian Dao racked his brains to search all his memories, and found that none of the players on this team had entered the NBA in the future.

Well, sure, this is a civilian team!
