Chapter 26 Assistant Coach

The holidays are over, schools are reopening and leagues are reopening.

But Wang Xiao and his Harvard varsity team had improved significantly before the winter break.

The two weeks after the holiday were no joke, they were really systematic and professional

Training, and the efficiency bonus provided by Wang Xiao's system, the results are far stronger than the training on ordinary campuses.

So in the first game after the holiday, Harvard broke out in the game against the opponent.

81:32!

The starting five all scored double-doubles, and Jeremy Lin and Plaine combined to score 52 points, which is already okay

It's an anomalous massacre!

And the 49-point margin is also the highest net difference in the history of Harvard in the Ivy League!

Every member of the team was full of energy, and they all wanted to see their water after Wang Xiao's harsh training

What kind of growth has Ping.

In front of the Harvard varsity team, which has improved in strength, the remaining seven teams in the Ivy League are not at all

Opponents, in the words of a media outlet that watched the massacre, Harvard University is no longer in the same league as the other teams in the Ivy League!

Such a big victory, but it didn't even let Wang Xiao praise Jeremy Lin and others.

In his opinion, this is a normal thing.

From the beginning, his goal was to make a mark in the NCAA Tournament, and now he's headed for it

Moving forward step by step.

A day after the team's 13th victory, Wang Xiao arrived at Pat's office.

"President Pat, I think it's time for the team to expand its coaching staff."

Wang Xiao went straight to the point.

"Expanding the coaching team?"

Pat was slightly stunned when he heard this.

"That's right." Wang Xiao nodded, "So far, I am the only coach of the Harvard varsity team, the Ivy League

The level of the league, there is nothing wrong with this configuration, but if it is extended to the entire NCAA league, there is not enough manpower on my side. ”

Indeed, even with the assistance of the system, Wang Xiao is still a person after all, and his energy is limited.

Basketball isn't just about helping players train every day.

Regardless of NBA standards, even in the NCAA teams, most coaches have a team.

The head coach is in charge of coordination and tactics, the assistant coach assists the coach in daily training, and there is also a nutritionist

Balanced player nutrition, and video analysts to watch the opponent's game footage to analyze the characteristics of the opponent's players in each position, so as to arrange a targeted style of play.

The Ivy League is relatively weak, and there are only eight teams in total, and even without these, it is easy to win by relying on absolute strength.

But in the NCAA tournament, I am afraid that this set will not work.

Wang Xiao has keenly discovered that since Harvard University has shown its strong strength, there will always be some older faces watching the game in weekday games, and they are not like ordinary people who eat melons and watch the excitement, many of them also hold mobile phones and cameras to shoot.

No doubt some of these people are journalists, but many are also scouts from other schools.

They're looking at the style of play of the Harvard varsity team, analyzing the technical characteristics of each player in preparation for the tournament they might encounter in March.

Such a situation naturally made Wang Xiao feel pressured.

What if the tournament starts in March and the team faces an opponent who knows everything about them?

The NCAA tournament is not the Ivy League they are playing in right now, and the competition is against the best basketball teams in the country.

Don't look at the Harvard varsity team is now so majestic in the Ivy League, but there is still a big gap between the comprehensive strength and those basketball schools, even Wang Xiao's ace Jeremy Lin's level is not necessarily much better than the main core of those strong schools in the NCAA.

Wang Xiao is a little impressed, this year's tournament has several top point guards in the future league, among whom Derrick. Ross and Russell. Westbrook is one of them.

Even if he uses Kidd's growth template card, Jeremy Lin's potential and current strength may not be higher than these two.

Derek. As the youngest regular season MVP winner in the future, Rose may not be as good as Kidd in tandem assists and defense, but he is definitely better than Kidd on offense, and if it weren't for injury, his future achievements will not necessarily be lower than Kidd's, after all, Kidd has never won the regular season MVP award in his career.

Another Russell. Westbrook is not weak at all, not only did he also get the regular season MVP in the future, but even won an average triple-double feat of 31 points, 10.7 rebounds and 10.4 assists per game, and he also won an average triple-double for three consecutive seasons, leaving the former triple-double king Kidd far behind.

Whether Jeremy Lin is playing against either of these two, I'm afraid that he won't be able to get any benefits in a 1v1 situation.

My family knows my own affairs.

Jeremy Lin has greatly improved his abilities in all aspects, but the offensive aspect is the part where he has improved the least.

No way, who let Wang Xiao draw Kidd's template card instead of Nash's?

Kidd is characterized by controlling the tempo and being tough defensively, but the offense is mediocre.

In the event of an NCAA tournament and Harvard draws either Ross or Westbrook as opponents, it will definitely be a tough match.

And Wang Xiao also remembers that the NCAA Championship won in 08 was not the University of Memphis with Ross, but the University of Kansas, they defeated the University of Memphis with Ross to win the championship, and it was Mario who won the MOP at that time. Chalmers, yes, is the "dribbling" guard who was responsible for dribbling the basketball to James or Wade during the Heat Big Three.

The question is, why does Wang Xiao want an assistant.

The members of the University of Kansas varsity team are basically a group of players who can only be role players in the NBA, and even except for Chalmers, Wang Xiao can't remember the names and style characteristics of other players.

They were able to defeat the University of Memphis led by Ross to win the championship, and there is no doubt about their strength, but Wang Xiao knows nothing about them, which is definitely a very dangerous thing.

Therefore, an assistant coach is absolutely necessary, and Wang Xiao needs such an assistant to assist him in collecting information on other NCAA teams.

Listening to Wang Xiao's narration, Pat kept nodding his head.

He understood what Wang Xiao meant, and he also understood the other party, so he simply agreed to Wang Xiao's proposal.

This is not a difficult thing to do, especially since Wang Xiao has just led the team to 13 consecutive victories, an unprecedented feat at Harvard University, which has almost sealed the league championship.

In this case, if even Wang Xiao's small request cannot be met, it will be too much to say.
