Chapter 19 Whetstones and Stepping Stones

In the 2005-06 season, the University of Washington's NCAA opening game was on November 11, 2005.

An away game against the Duke University Blue Devils, one of the four super-seeded teams this season.

Before the start of this year's NCAA, expert fans across the United States selected this year's four strongest teams.

Duke University, led by JJ Redick, Sheldon Williamson, and Josh McRoberts, the nation's No. 1 high school student in the class of 2005, ranked first.

In addition to Duke University, the remaining three teams are UCONN (University of Connecticut), TEXAS (University of Texas) ia Tech (Georgia Institute of Technology)

If Webster and Nate Robinson do not participate in the draft, the University of Washington can also be ranked in the top four and become the favorite to compete for this year's NCAA championship.

Now, without Nate Robinson and Webster, the University of Washington is considered a weakling among prestigious schools.

Generally speaking, a prestigious school like the University of Washington has no chance to compete with Duke University.

In the NCAA, a season starts in early November and ends in early April, a total of five months and three stages.

November and December are the ‘non-conference games’ period, and teams can negotiate with any NCAA team to play games.

For example, the University of Washington is in the Pac-10 Conference and Duke University is in the ACC Conference. Teams from two different conferences can compete in these two months.

As long as it is discussed in advance and approved by the NCAA, it will be fine.

When Duke University approached the University of Washington to sign a contract last year, it never thought that the University of Washington would turn from a strong team into a weak team.

The two teams in the 'non-league' need to sign a contract 2-4 years in advance. If you sign a contract and don't play, you will lose money.

Every year, the NCAA non-conference tournament’s powerful dialogue sells out national broadcast fees at a sky-high price.

Even if the University of Washington is now a loser, this game between the University of Washington and Duke University is still a live game in the United States.

After the NCAA has gone through a two-month "non-conference" phase of 13-14 games, the following January, February to mid-March will be the "conference competition."

In the conference game, the University of Washington will play against teams from the Pac-10 Conference to determine the champion, while Duke University will play against the ACC Conference to determine the champion.

After the conference conference games are over, there will be the "March Madness" that the United States is crazy about, the NCAA national championship, the exciting single-game elimination system, and the NCAA championship will be determined all the way.

For Duke University, there is not much value in playing against the current University of Washington.

Duke University’s Redick and Sheldon Williamson ‘boxing combination’ has taken shape after three years of hard work.

Duke doesn't need to use weak teams to hone its lineup now. This is Duke's harvest time.

They now need to play strong teams to test their lineup, instead of bullying weak players.

"Perhaps the only value of this game to us is that it is a nationally broadcast game."

In the Duke University training hall, Duke University's head coach, Coach K, was thinking helplessly.

Coach K is helpless, but the Duke players are very excited!

Duke University plays a lot of national live broadcasts every year, but most of them play against strong teams.

National live broadcast means high exposure. For these players who want to enter the NBA, high exposure is the opportunity to improve their draft picks.

There are many stories of getting super data in high-exposure games and finally turning an ugly duckling into a white swan!

There are more than 300 teams in the NCAA and more than 4,000 players. How can there be so many NBA scouts to scout every person and every team.

Without exposure, you don’t even have a stage to show off.

Live streaming across the United States is the best showcase!

It's a pity that the live broadcast across the United States is a strong dialogue, and it is not easy to produce good data.

It's good now, there's a game broadcast live across the United States, and the opponent is Fish Belly!

"JJ, the latest draft prospects only ranked you fifteenth in the first round. This is not okay. They have no idea how strong you are. You are now the strongest player in the NCAA! In this game, we want to show the United States

The power of our boxing combination, I want to be the number one pick, and JJ wants to be in the early lottery! I want to kill Bobby Jones, and JJ wants to devour that yellow-skinned kid!"

"I want forty points in this game!"

If he doesn't produce good data in this game, JJ Redick feels that he is committing a crime!

Justin Dentmon and Ryan Appleby were troubled when they arrived at the University of Washington.

As the game against Duke University approaches, I have been feeling even more worried recently.

Not only did they have to be constantly trampled and rubbed by Ye Si in team training matches, but they were also threatened by Ye Si in training sessions to play the role of the "chicken" in the eagle catching the chicken.

Running around all over the court, Ye Si, the eagle, caught him everywhere.

This is really not the college life they want!

They came to the University of Washington to ravage Joseph, not to be ravaged by him!

Once they made a mistake, they would suffer eternal hatred. When they thought about being tortured by Ye Si for four years in the future, Dentemon and Appleby were on the verge of tears.

"Justin, Ryan, it's too slow! Speed ​​up, speed up, speed up, you don't even have Redick's speed, you still want to play on the team in the future?!"

"I'm not asking you to run blindly. Chickens like you can't even dodge an eagle's dive!"

Three days ago, Romar, the head coach of the University of Washington, wanted to use the game against Duke to awaken the super talented Ye Si.

Redick is not only the strongest guard in the NCAA, but also the most hated player in the NCAA.

Not only is he powerful, he also has a particularly arrogant personality. In the NCAA, he is known as the away silencer.

What he likes to do most is to first provoke the opponent's players and fans, then defeat the opponent's anger with goals one by one, and enjoy the opponent's silence in front of his strength.

Such a player is the most suitable to be Ye's whetstone!

But now...

"Mr. Romar, Yes's off-the-ball movement skills are excellent!"

"Well, it's really outstanding!"

Yes is actively training Redick these days.

Everyone can see it.

And his off-ball movement skills are as amazing as his offensive skills.

This is the biggest result of Ye Si’s efforts in the past fifteen years!

Position: Point guard (100%), shooting guard (100%), small forward (75%), power forward (15%), center (5%)

This row of data on his attribute panel is not meaningless!

This means that his point guard skills and shooting guard skills are rated 100% by the system. Even his small forward skills are 75%. His outside skills have almost no shortcomings!

In his freshman year of high school, he was called Seattle Jordan, the son of Seattle, and he didn't come just by accident.

He lacks attribute points and doesn't lack any skills.

With low attribute points, these technologies are flashy and can only bully the weak.

When his attribute points are high, he can pick up these skills immediately and fight against the strong!

Now that his explosive power and speed have increased, even top-notch short defenders like Dentemont can't get rid of him with his off-ball movement skills.

He now even feels that his skill may soon become a skill recognized by the system!

Every skill recognized by the system is extremely precious. Even in the NBA, there are not many players with skills.

Seeing Ye Si like this, the two coaches at the University of Washington were actually very nervous.

Can Redick really teach Yece a lesson?

Romar and Ozenberg had huge doubts in their hearts.

"Mr. Romar, Duke University's pick-and-roll and screen quality are very good. Redick's speed may not be as good as Dentmon's, but his running skills and height are not comparable to Justin's. This game is Yes if he does not use his jumping and

Strength talent, it is not that easy to defeat Redick. When he found that if he wanted to defeat Redick, he needed to use his physical talent, our plan was successful!"

"I hope so"

In Ye's first NCAA game, he met JJ Redick, which made Roy and the others very worried.

But Ye Si was very excited!

National live broadcast, Duke, JJ Redick!

Convert this game to the NBA, that is, live broadcast across the United States, Lakers, Kobe!

As long as he can perform well in this game, then he will immediately enter the discussion of draft prospects!

There are more than 4,000 players in the NCAA, and only about 100 players with draft prospects are focused on by the expert media!

The other 95% of players played for four years and left the NCAA in obscurity!

Can an unknown player get drafted by the NBA?

It's hard!

He wants to step on Redick and make a name for himself!

And there is no one more suitable to be his stepping stone than Redick!

Redick is famous enough, and he can match Redick's style of play!

With his off-ball movement skills, he can ensure that he appears in front of the opponent at all times and ensures that the defense does not lose position!

If the opponent plays with strength, he will be knocked away, knocked down, and chased and beaten by the opponent!

But not jj redick.

Redick is indeed stronger than him and has better jumping than him, but his offensive method does not use his physical talents, but his running and shooting abilities!

Compare running position, compare speed, compare explosive power, and even compare shooting percentage.
