Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 476 USC and DeRozan

In three days, the first round of the NCAA Championship, that is, the 64-to-32 competition ended one after another, and the teams that advanced to the top 32 were announced.

Of the 7 teams in the Western Conference, half of them were eliminated in this round, and there were many situations where the 10th seed University of Utah lost to the [-]th seed Ohio State University. Ohio State University replaced the University of Utah. advance to the next round.

Except for this game, there are no upsets in other games. According to the next round of match arrangements, Syracuse University will face the No. 4 seed University of Southern California (referred to as USC).

On this day, a group of players from the Syracuse University Orange Team rushed to the neutral court.

At the same time, Humphrey and Knicks deputy general manager Alan Houston also rushed to the venue together. This time Alan Houston will personally inspect Qin Hao and Butler.

In addition to them, there are several other nba team scouts who are interested in this game and rushed to the game venue one after another. Some are interested in Qin Hao and Butler, while others are interested in USC's DeMar. -DeRozan, and Taj Gibson are interested.

The leaders of USC are DeMar DeRozan and Tai Gibson. Under their leadership, USC won the Pacific Ten Championship this season, advanced to the championship as a champion, and was rated as the best by the selection committee. No. 4 seed in the Midwest.

In the last round, USC easily defeated their opponents, and both DeRozan and Gibson played well.

There has been news before that both DeRozan and Gibson plan to participate in the NBA draft after the end of this season. DeRozan's talent and strength are there. There is nothing wrong with wanting to enter the NBA. Ty Gibson is because he is not young. , the 24-year-old has played in USC for three seasons. If he has not participated in the draft, he may not have the opportunity to enter the NBA.

Some teams are very optimistic about the two of them, especially DeRozan, so they sent scouts.

Before the game started, the arena was already overcrowded. Fans from both sides had already occupied an area, confronting each other across the air, shouting and cursing one after another.

Papani and Mike also came to the scene and sat in the media area.

Mike walked back and forth with the camera in his hand, suddenly gasped in surprise, and said to Papani, "Papani, look over there, that person seems to be Alan Houston from the Knicks."

"Oh?" Papani hurriedly looked over, his eyes lit up, "What does it mean, that's him, and beside him is Humphrey, a scout from the Knicks. I didn't expect that the vice president, Alan Houston, would come. Are you here for Qin or Butler?"

Papani thinks this is very possible. After all, it is normal for the Syracuse University New York team to receive the attention of the New York Knicks.

And just before a game in the Big East League Game, Papani noticed Humphrey appearing in the audience.

So the answer is just around the corner.

Humphrey and Alan Houston must be here today for Syracuse University. As for whether it is for Qin Hao or Butler, Papani has no way to judge.

"Mike! Hurry up and take a picture." Papani quickly said to Mike: "This is not a big news."

Mike smiled and patted the camera on his hand: "It's been taken a long time ago."

At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the players from both sides played one after another, and then went to the field to warm up.

Players from both sides are looking at each other across most of the court.

Qin Hao looked at DeRozan on the opposite side, and DeRozan also looked this way, but after a glance, he turned his head arrogantly, like a proud black swan.

"This guy is still the same as before, but I don't know if he is still so obsessed with the mid-range shot." Qin Hao couldn't help curling his lips. At the beginning, he was actually going to remind DeRozan, suggesting that he should not be so obsessed with the mid-range shot, and practice more when he has time Practice three-pointers.

However, DeRozan was extremely indifferent to him, and Qin Hao had no interest in getting close to him with his eyes above his head.

Anyway, he probably wouldn't listen to DeRozan after reminding him, so he didn't bother to waste that time.

As for whether the "Little Prince of CIC" will be beaten psychologically by the "old man in his thirties" in the future, that's none of Qin Hao's business.

He is not the savior.

Qin Hao had a good impression of Ty Gibson. In his memory, Gibson was not a very high pick in the draft. He only became a starter when he started to head home.

The Bulls period can be regarded as the essence of Gibson's NBA career. Although he was not very brilliant, he is definitely a trustworthy and hardworking player.

Then Qin Hao looked at another player.

This is a handsome guy, tall, with a little youthful face, very shy, warming up silently, without receiving much attention.

No one knew that this handsome guy named Nikola Vucevic would turn into a bearded uncle in a few years, and become the leading star of the Magic team, and even selected to the NBA All-Star team.

And now, he is still a substitute player at USC, just a freshman who averaged only 2.6 points and 2.7 rebounds per game.

Compared with DeRozan and Gibson, he is too inconspicuous.

"Kent." Qin Hao grabbed Kent, pointed at Vucevic, and said, "If you meet him later, you have to be careful."

"Huh?" Kent raised his eyebrows, stared at Vucevic, and asked cautiously: "Is this a master? It doesn't look like it."

"I don't know if it's true, anyway, it doesn't hurt to be careful." Qin Hao laughed.

Kent agreed.

After a while, the warm-up of both sides ended.

The USC players gathered around the head coach Singer and called the players together, saying: "Later, we must control the rhythm and protect the rebounds. In addition, we must do a good job of defending Qin and Butler. Their The scoring ability is very strong, we can't let them play singles casually, they have to go up to help defend and double-team."

"As for the offense." He paused, looked at DeRozan, and said, "DeMar, you need to score more. The opponent has Qin and Butler, and we also need to have a strong scoring point, a sharp offensive knife .”

"Yes." DeRozan agreed in a muffled voice.

Regarding DeRozan's character, Coach Singer is also a little helpless, but he is used to it.

Afterwards, Coach Singer gave a few more instructions, and then he clapped his hands and signaled the players to go on the court. The way to deal with Syracuse University's "running and bombing tactics" is nothing more than the same, just do the best you can.

Coach Singer is still worried about Qin Hao and Butler.

After entering "March Madness", all the games will be broadcast on TV, by Fox TV, and of course there will be video of the game. Coach Singer studied the video of the Syracuse University vs. University of Arizona game, and was very afraid of Qin Hao and Butler.
