When Zhao Qiang and Tang Xiaowan heard these words, their expressions changed.

It's not that the two of them are small-minded, it's mainly because we're eating here, and those guys yelling here will cause a disturbance.

Sure enough, before the two of them responded, a quarrel started outside.

"Where did this shit come from? Are you provoking us in Virginia? The cavalry can kill you Huskies!"

"Are you looking for trouble? Believe it or not, I will blow your head off!"

"Damn it, Ray Allen is nothing, Zhao Qiang can torture him to death!"

…

Zhao Qiang and Tang Xiaowan looked at each other and were very moved. Maybe this is what it feels like to be a city hero...

The noise outside slowly disappeared, probably because those guys were scared away.

"Xiao Wan, in this game, we can only win, not lose! I can't let down the fans who support me!" Zhao Qiang's eyes showed determination that he had never seen before!

Tang Xiaowan instantly understood the reason for Zhao Qiang's competitive spirit. Zhao Qiang was not doing it for himself, he wanted to win for the people around him.

For Coach Anzuo, for his teammates, for his classmates at Virginia Union University, and for everyone who supports him, including Tang Xiaowan.

"Qiang, you are great, I love you!"

Tang Xiaowan leaned her head over and kissed Zhao Qiang hard.

"Don't say that, I don't think it's greatness, it's just an athlete's basic belief." Zhao Qiang gently pinched Tang Xiaowan's pretty nose.

…

Coach Anzo's preparations were very thorough, and he obtained several videotapes of the University of Connecticut game.

After watching the video, not only the players, but also coach Anzuo were silent.

It was Zhao Qiang who broke the silence, raised his hand and said: "Coach, the Huskies are top-notch in every position. It seems there is no weakness, but there is also a potential weakness. We must seize it!"

"Weaknesses? Tell me."

Although Coach Anzuo values ​​Zhao Qiang very much and dotes on him, he understands in his heart that there is such a gap between the two teams, what can be done?

In the face of the absolute strength gap, any technique is useless.

Zhao Qiang's speed is similar to that of Ray Allen, and his shooting is better than that of Ray Allen.

His teammates also looked at Zhao Qiang, wondering if he had any good ideas.

"Coach, brothers, have you all read the news reports? Ray Allen openly challenged me and said he would brutally abuse me!"

Coach Anzuo and his teammates all nodded.

"Captain, ignore him, that guy is just bragging!"

"Maybe it was written randomly by the media. Brother Qiang, please don't be angry..."

…

Everyone thought Zhao Qiang was angry, so they tried to comfort him one after another.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Qiang was not angry at all. He smiled and stretched out his hands and pressed down to let everyone calm down.

"This is not the point. What I want to say is that now the media and fans are focusing on my confrontation with Ray Allen. Then I can actively provoke him during the game and let Ray Allen

Get angry from shame and fight me alone!"

Only then did Coach Anzu understand what Zhao Qiang meant, but he felt it was unfair to Zhao Qiang.

If the game really turns into a contest between two people, Zhao Qiang will become the target of public criticism after the Cavalry team loses.

Everyone will say that Zhao Qiang was beaten by Ray Allen, which ruined the game, and Zhao Qiang's draft selection will be ruined.

"Qiangzi, this is not appropriate. We are a whole and we still have to play team basketball!" Coach Anzuo shook his head repeatedly.

All his teammates know that Zhao Qiang is not a person who likes to be in the limelight. He does this to bear the burden of the team's loss.

"Coach, Qiangzi, although they are very strong, we are not that bad. Who cares, just do it and it will be done!"

"Yeah, we fought them hard. Even the Devil Deacons didn't beat us by many points. The Huskies are nothing special either."

Zhao Qiang nodded: "Okay, as long as everyone works together, miracles can happen. Come on, brothers!"

In the pre-game training, the Cavalry team made great adjustments to the Huskies' tactics.

The Huskies' basic tactics are to have Ray Allen as the core, a balance of offense and defense, and other positions also have the ability to attack independently.

Especially on the defensive end, he is at the top of the league. He is a defensive champion in every position!

After training, Zhao Qiang and Brown practiced for another two hours.

In the past two hours, I didn't practice strength or tactics. I just practiced one, a pull-up jump shot after getting rid of it.

You must take action quickly and accurately!

And they are all near the penalty area, not outside the three-point line.

Although Brown doesn't know why he practices this, he will obey whatever Zhao Qiang says.

…

One week later, the NCAA's 64-to-32 tournament begins!

The game between the Cavalry and the Huskies attracted the attention of many fans.

In the knockout round, there are no home and away games, and the games between the two teams are held in neutral arenas.

The focus of most fans is on Zhao Qiang and Ray Allen.

Some old-school fans hope that Ray Allen can brutally torture Zhao Qiang and teach this "opportunistic" player a lesson.

When the players from both sides entered the arena, Zhao Qiang looked across and found that Ray Allen was also looking at him.

Ray Allen is a good-tempered person in life and very friendly, but as long as it is related to basketball, he is crazy.

Not only did he say in a previous interview that he would definitely abuse Zhao Qiang, but in today's interview, Ray Allen also deliberately stepped on Zhao Qiang.

"His dribbling, his shooting, his free throws, and his defense, how can they compare to mine? You have to move your heads and think about it!"

These words reached Zhao Qiang’s ears by reporters.

Zhao Qiang was not angry, but simply told reporters: "Basketball games are not about personal data, but about wins and losses. Victory will definitely belong to us!"

…

After the players from both sides warmed up, the game started.

The Cavaliers’ starting lineup remains unchanged——

Point Guard: Druid

Shooting Guard: Zhao Qiang

Small Forward:Lao Tie

Power Forward: Big Black Dragon

Center: Ben Wallace

Head Coach: Anzo

University of Connecticut Huskies -

Point Guard: Carroll

Shooting Guard: Ray Allen

Small Forward: Kevin Burleson

Power Forward: Kareem

Center: Primoz

Head Coach: Melvin

Big Ben and Primoz stood in the center circle, preparing to jump the ball.

Ray Allen walked up to Zhao Qiang and said with a confident smile: "Zhao Qiang, did you hear what I said to the media?"

Zhao Qiang nodded: "I heard it."

"That's good……"

The conversation between the two sounded friendly, but the smell of confrontation had already spread!

Primoz grabbed the first possession of the ball for the Huskies.
Chapter completed!
