NBA: James wants to team up with me

Chapter 12 Sweet 16, rising fame

(I was very busy some time ago, so I wasn’t very good at updating. From today onwards, I will update 2 words twice a day until it is put on the shelves.)

Relying on the performance of Wade and Wang Chong, Marquette University quickly established a score advantage and completely suppressed Xavier University on the scene.

Although Wang Chong couldn't guard the opponent's star player David West on the defensive end, he was one of the only three NBA-level players present. West didn't have an easy time facing Wang Chong. Every attack Be cautious and alert.

Compared with the pressure on the offensive end, the pressure on the defensive end is actually the biggest headache for West and Xavier University.

I originally thought that they only needed to find a way to restrain Wade when facing Marquette, but they didn't expect that Wang Chong suddenly appeared, and their defensive tactics completely collapsed. They were already a little overwhelmed.

A few minutes into the game, Xavier University called a timeout. The coach took the tactical board and arranged for the players how to deal with the pick-and-roll tactics of Wade and Wang Chong.

But if two NBA-level players cooperate in the pick-and-roll, if an NCAA coach can use tactics to teach his teammates how to deal with it in just a few dozen seconds, then the NBA players are nothing special.

The war situation did not improve at all after the timeout, but instead became more passive towards Xavier University.

Wade is simply too strong. Although David West is also a star player who can average 20+11 per game in his college division, the two have completely different intuitive feelings on the court.

Scouts have completely focused their attention on Wade, marveling at the defender's powerful impact.

In the end, there was no pressure in this game.

Marquette University defeated Xavier University 85:68, winning by 17 points, which was considered a big victory.

Throughout the game, Marquette University took the initiative from the beginning and maintained its advantage until the end of the game.

Wade scored a team-high 28 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, and frequently hit the basket and tore Xavier University's defense to pieces.

David West's performance in this game was actually not bad, with 19 points and 12 rebounds, which well demonstrated his ability as a high-quality power forward. However, in this game he encountered an opponent that was difficult to deal with. Chong, resulting in no way to further help the team win.

As for Wang Chong, he scored 16 points and 8 rebounds in this game. Although he is not as impressive as Wade and David West, he also succeeded in making many scouts aware of his outstanding performance in the game. His existence, and recorded the name Wang Chong.

"An Asian player with top static talent and a stable mid-range shot seems to be worthy of continued investigation."

Big men who can shoot are not very popular in the league, but they are very popular. Especially in the 02-03 season, the big man Dirk Nowitzki from Germany played the best level of his career, averaging 25 points per game. 10 rebounds and 3 assists.

The Dallas Mavericks' current record is as high as 73%, ranking among the top two in the league. They are competing fiercely with the Spurs, also a Western Conference team, for the league's first record.

Moreover, Wang Chong has more than just this aura. Yellow skin and black hair are extremely rare both in the future and now.

Dayao just joined Houston as the No. 1 pick last summer and is also very popular in the NBA. Therefore, Asian faces like Wang Chong, who are extremely rare in the NCAA, are also quite attractive to scouts.

Of course, these auras only allow Wang Chong's name and characteristics to leave a slight impression in the minds of the scouts. That's all. One game is definitely not enough for them to fully understand Wang Chong, but fortunately Marquette University has successfully advanced to the top 32, and there are still many opportunities in the following games.

-

For Marquette University to defeat Xavier University to advance to the top 32, it was like a pebble thrown into a lake in the championship. It only caused a slight stir and few people paid attention.

After all, neither of these two universities is a popular seeded team, and it is not surprising whether either team wins.

<divclass="contentadv">The NCAA is a paradise for dark horses. Almost every year, dark horses defeat seeded teams. This year is no exception. Just a first round of 64 going into 32, there were many cases where the underdog defeated the overmatched team. In the dark horse event, Marquette's victory is indeed a trivial matter.

However, for the players of the Marquette University team, this victory is like celebrating the New Year. In March Madness, every additional round of advancement is valuable progress.

Marquette University, which advanced to the top 32, faced a 32-16 opponent a few days later. It was still not a particularly popular team. Wang Chong didn’t even see a familiar NBA player on this team’s roster. arrive.

This is actually not surprising. Not every player who can enter the NCAA team has the potential to enter the NBA. Many teams rely on their more mature bodies and suitable tactics after their junior and senior years. The system and a little bit of luck enter into the fighting show of March Madness.

Marquette University's next opponent is like this. Although there are no talented players in the team, with their excellent team and tactical play, they have a chance to participate in the knockout rounds and even advance to the second round.

It's just that it's usually difficult for such a team to reach the end. After all, sports have always been a stage that favors talents. Whether it's basketball, football, track and field or other sports, only a few talented people can shine.

No matter how hard ordinary people try, they can only be reduced to foils.

Allen Iverson dominates the league with an average height of 1 meters, attracting the crazy admiration of countless fans, but his speed, agility and ability to combine man and ball are unique in NBA history.

The strongest player on the planet at 175, Isaiah Thomas is actually a strong man who can dunk. He also has speed and strength that are difficult for ordinary people to match.

Marquette's second-round game demonstrated this perfectly.

Wade scored 31 points in the game, but this is not even the point. The point is that Wang Chong also showed his talent to the fullest in this game.

With a height of 2 meters, a wingspan of 08 meters and a precise mid-range shot, Wang Chong's opponents simply cannot organize an effective defense when he shoots from mid-range.

As a result, after the whole game, Wang Chong also scored a double-double with 24 points and 11 rebounds, and his shooting percentage was even higher than Wade!

Now not only the scouts, but also the media reporters began to gradually discover Wang Chong's existence.

32强的关注度相比64强毕竟要更高一些，而且王崇黑头发黄皮肤的特征确实扎眼，再加上在32进16的比赛中砍下24+11的两双数据，想不被察觉到都难。

"Marquette University defeated Ohio University and successfully advanced to the Sweet 16!"

"The mysterious Asian center shows his power and is the strongest helper beside Wade. Is he the secret weapon of Marquette University?"

Wang Chong began to gradually gain fame.
