Chapter 182 Breaking into the Top 16
Although the Trojans, which belong to the same Big Twelve in the Pacific, have good luck in signing, they are also in the upper half, but they have avoided strong teams such as Duke, Kentucky, and UCLA.
However, the rival Syracuse University Oranges still dominated the field by virtue of the gap in strength and easily sent them out.
As a result, the Bruins became the only remaining hope in the league.
Looking at the results in recent years, they had better stop at the top 32, not even making it to the top 16.
In addition to facing ridicule for the once glorious Pacific Division, the most important thing is that the status of the region has also been shaken.
In addition to overseas expansion of the NCAA, the next step is to streamline domestic teams.
The weak Pacific Division is naturally the focus of cleansing, which is not good news for the sports talents who intend to join.
Because of the lack of opportunities to play in the NCAA, scholarships are simply delusional.
And, it creates a nasty cycle where gifted kids continue to be lost until there's a disconnect in the hoops here...
UCLA hired Wacker, the Trojans focused on recruiting talented newcomers, and even the Wildcats were working hard to build a bombardment army for their own league!
They must prevent themselves from being kicked out of the NCAA, and must revive the Pacific Division in the shortest possible time!
Therefore, the appearance of Zhang Yi and Escario not only brought victory to the Bruins, but also saved the entire division.
When the Trojans were eliminated, their status became even more important, and even former opponents became advocates!
The homepage of the entire Pac-[-] league has been replaced with the starting five of the Bruins, especially the promotion videos and news have become the main focus.
And Zhang Yi is heading for the John Wooden Award.
It is obviously named after a famous UCLA coach, but it has been more than ten years since no Bruins players have won it. It is hard to say that this is not a pity.
In addition to Zhang Yi, Escalio will not back down anymore, and he will try his best to win all the opportunities to perform on the court.
Although he promised his adoptive father that he would take over the family business after college, he would have to enjoy the last few years of his basketball career even more.
The round of 32 games started soon, and the Ramblers team of Loyola University Chicago, as the opponent, also made a special statement to the media.Even if there is a gap in strength, they will not let the Bruins win easily.
Their words were not in vain. The Ramblers played really tough in the game.
Especially the team's center Luke from Melbourne, Australia, almost showed his good and bad skills.
And if Zhang Yi hadn't been aware of it and deliberately landed with his heel in the backward landing position, he might have been successfully stepped on by Luke...
This also made Wack furious on the sidelines, because it was obvious that this was intentional.
In order to maintain order, the referee chased Luke for a T, which also made the Ramblers, who played dirty, restrained.
But just like that, the starting four of the Bruins all had more or less scars.
Of course, Escalio could not enjoy the care of his opponent, it should be said that the opponent did not dare to take care of him.
Noticing something was wrong at the beginning of the game, he directly broke the opponent's shooting guard's fingers during the offense.
And apart from the parties involved, no one knows what happened.
He has never been afraid of toughness. It can be said that the more chaotic the game, the more Escalio enjoys it.
After the opponent substituted off the field, the backup shooting guard was frightened by Escalio's terrifying eyes, and no one dared to trouble him.
Therefore, apart from Zhang Yi, the main offense of the Bruins is still done by him.
The score is also getting bigger and bigger normally, although the process is not as smooth as the previous game.
The Ramblers delivered on their pregame promises, but they also lost hearts.Before the game was over, their official website and social accounts were hacked by angry fans.
For any purpose, a direct attack on the basketball court should never happen.
The whistle sounded at the end of the game, and the Ramblers lost by 20 points. More importantly, when they exited, there were huge boos near the player tunnel.
You know, this is their home court in Chicago.Except for some scratches on the body, all members of the Bruins team did not suffer major injuries.
But this also reminded them that everything will be more difficult in the next game.
While winning, you must also ensure your health.The next opponent also appeared at the same time.
The Wildcats of the University of Kentucky were unexpectedly caught in a predicament in the top 32, but they still relied on core player Wayne Rooney to win at the last moment.
In the entire upper half, one of the only two teams that can threaten the Bruins, the University of Kentucky's strength this year should not be underestimated.
The reason why this game is difficult is that the opponent has a Chinese player A Fei who scored 38 points.
Rooney lost the data in the all-out confrontation with A Fei, but he still proved that Jiang is still hot with a lore.
"A Fei and the others have been eliminated." Wally said to Zhang Yi while holding his mobile phone. "Lost to Kentucky."
"Isn't that our opponent in the next game?" Zhang Yi just frowned, "The game is based on strength, and they are still far behind."
"We still want to fight Ah Fei and the others again, it's very interesting."
In fact, Zhang Yi also thinks that he is very talented, but relying on talent alone will not go far, and he still needs to hone his physical fitness.
After returning to Los Angeles, after answering Ye Qing's call, Lucy's called again.
"What a sweet annoyance." Wally said, shaking his head.
"I thought I was the one who was bothered the most, but Zhang Yi, you, a guy who looks so honest, also has a harem!"
As soon as these words came out of Robert's mouth, Zhang Yi really wanted to hit someone.
But what he said is basically the truth, this can be called two boats, and the two boats are still competing...
In addition to accompanying Ye Qing to school and watching her training during the day, Zhang Yi also took her to eat all the delicacies nearby.
In the evening, Ye Qing has dance lessons.Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Yi ran out to find Lucy, and accompanied her to dinner and movies.
Zhang Yi could still handle it if he just dealt with two women like this.
But the problem is, after he saw Lucy, the latter's first words were, "What did you and Ye Qing do today?"
Zhang Yi couldn't tell lies yet. After telling the truth, she had only one sentence, "If you treat her well, you must treat me five minutes!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yi had nothing to do, he was the one who made the mistake.He could only obediently take care of Lucy's emotions.
The next day, I don't know where Ye Qing got the news. Her words were similar to those of Lucy, so Zhang Yi had to take time to coax her.
After these three days, he decided to have dinner, watch a movie and go shopping with the two of them in the future.
"I have to practice at other times, the game is getting tighter and tighter, you know it!"
The reason why this reason is useful is because both Ye Qing and Lucy really like Zhang Yi...
