Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 56 The rain is coming
As the end of March draws to a close, the entire NCAA major league begins to tense up, and the much-anticipated NCAA Final Four is about to begin.

After the fierce competition in the championship week, the 4 major division champions came out, and the top 4 matchup list was also released: Duke University played against the University of Michigan; University of Wisconsin played against the University of Kentucky.

During this rare rest time, Yuan Qingshan, apart from training according to Daben's requirements every day, spent all his time studying his next opponent... the University of Wisconsin team.

As the champion of the Grand Cross League, this year's team can be regarded as an absolute dark horse.

这支球队从1898年成立到现在，一共杀进甜蜜16强4次，精英8强2次，最终4强2次，而只在遥远的1941年捧起过NCAA锦标赛的冠军奖杯。

Unlike other traditional prestigious schools, there are very few NBA stars who have come out of here, and only Michael Finley and Devin Harris are considered to be somewhat famous.

The seemingly unknown team is the kind of general public that is easily forgotten among the more than 300 universities in the NCAA major leagues.

However, it is such a team that has never been favored since December, but its performance at the end of the season is quite strong. In the decisive battle between the divisional championship and Michigan State University, people can see their champion appearance.

The media is like this, whoever gains power starts to take care of others, and only the winner can enter the aperture forever.

After entering the final 4, Coach John also became very serious. At least he will not find some surprising sparring partners to punish him with a cup and hurt his morale. He also distributed a lot of opponent information to the players in advance.

Every player of the Wildcats took back a thick stack. Fortunately, these guys usually have a good cultural class, otherwise it would be difficult to read it carefully from beginning to end.

From the data point of view, the offensive efficiency of the University of Wisconsin is very high, averaging 100 points in 121.6 rounds, ranking first in the entire NCAA Division I.

However, in terms of defense, their performance is relatively not as sharp as the offense. They averaged 100 points per 96.8 rounds, ranking 69th among all the first-division school teams.

During the NCAA Tournament, Wisconsin averaged 78.6 points per game, up from their season average of 72.7.

In short, this is an upstart team with strong offense and weak defense. Generally speaking, this kind of new star lacks tenacity, and the main players in the team are not used to leading the whole team to bite the whole game under the spotlight or taking the heavy responsibility to score lore at critical moments.

Therefore, when playing against this kind of team, the most important thing is not to let them start the momentum. After the momentum, try to delay the key ball as much as possible, and block the arrow players when hitting the key ball.

Who is the star at UW?
There's no doubting senior forward Frank Kaminsky.

Yuan Qingshan and Downs soaked in the dormitory and turned Kaminsky's information upside down.

Kaminsky entered the University of Wisconsin in 2011 and averaged only 1.8 points and 1.4 rebounds per game that season.

What is this concept?It couldn't be more clear. Like Yuan Qingshan's previous data, a standard drinking fountain player with a D- rating in the evolution system wants to enter the NBA?Idiots talk about dreams.

Looking at the 2012 season again, he made some progress, averaging 4.2 points and 1.8 rebounds per game.

What is this concept?Through his own efforts, he was 1cm away from the drinking fountain, but he was still 100cm away from the previous person.

"This guy is really not easy." Downs sighed.

This is indeed the case. If he played to that level in the first season, then he probably really played for fun when he had no hope in his sophomore year.

Looking further down, things have turned 180 degrees.

The average data per game in 2013 jumped to 14.0 points and 6.3 rebounds, and he was selected to the first team of the Big Ten All-NBA Team.

"What did this guy go through that year? Could it be that he was possessed by an NBA star?" Towns kept scratching his head at the information.

Downs put down the documents in his hand, tilted his head and looked at Yuan Qingshan: "To be honest, Xiaoshan, I admire him a lot. If it was me, I would have given up in my freshman year."

Yuan Qingshan nodded, indeed, if it weren't for the super evolution system, maybe now he has already thought about finding a basketball-related administrative job after graduation.

"How about it, Downs, do you have the confidence to deal with this big man? Oh, what a coincidence, you are both 7 feet."

Towns fell back on the bed and began to think, mumbling: "To be honest, the coach mentioned this big man to me. This guy is really inspirational. This season, he has averaged 18.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. The coach said that he can shoot, rebound, block shots, organize offense, and he plays very hard. He is a very selfless player."

Downs stopped when he said this: "Xiaoshan, why do I feel that this is talking about you?"

Yuan Qingshan was still very embarrassed by what he said: "Hey...then, what are his disadvantages?"

"Athletic ability is not top-notch, explosive power and agility are average." Downs said while thinking.

Yuan Qingshan also lay down, and suddenly seemed to remember something, turned to Tang Si and said, "Tang Si, I have a bold idea..."

A few days before the game, a piece of news swept across the entire NCAA major league.

All the media have unanimously drawn up the same concise and clear title.

Kaminsky said: I hate Kentucky!

One stone caused a thousand waves, and the words of Wisconsin's top brand spread the craze of NCAA "March Madness" to April.

Although Kaminsky was very unconvinced, Anthony Davis, John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Rajon Rondo, Derek Rose and other coach John's favorite students have stood up to support their school and coach.

Even LeBron James, who is in full swing, has publicly expressed his optimism for Kentucky to win the championship.

Wall responded to LeBron's tweet: "Thank you for the compliment, but ours was even better!"

LeBron replied: "Let's wait and see!"

There is still time before the game, but the flames of war have already ignited.

Los Angeles Staples Arena.

Laughlin sat at the large and luxurious desk, while Kobe leaned sideways on the desk.

Few people have seen Kobe so relaxed, except in front of the only old friends on the Lakers.

"Laughlin, the top 4 is about to start. Do you still insist on picking Towns? What if Kentucky is eliminated?"

Laughlin stared at him for a while, shook her head and said, "You can't shake me, and Kentucky will not be eliminated. They have 4 talented golfers who are predicted to enter the small green room. How can they lose to a dark horse with seniors as the core?"

Kobe was noncommittal.

"Besides, didn't you read the news? Even LeBron supported Kentucky to win the championship." Laughlin added.

Kobe stood up and said seriously: "LeBron is not a god!"

After speaking, he opened the door and walked out.

Laughlin knocked on her head remorsefully, she was too careless when she spoke, it seems that she accidentally touched a nerve of this mamba again!
