Soon after the NBA's trade deadline passed, the time entered March, and the NCAA tournament "March Madness" in the United States came again.

Different from previous years, this year's team ranked by major media has an Ivy League team.

Harvard University ranks first in the national rankings!

In Wang Xiao's second season at Harvard, Harvard still won the Ivy League league trophy with a winning record, and won more suspense than last season.

There are many people who disagree with the rankings given by the media.

While Harvard's suffocating defense this season will make anyone feel uneasy when they see it, it's only an Ivy League team, and the pressure of competition in the league is just too small.

But in the first round of the round of 64 of the tournament, Harvard University made many people speechless with a hearty victory.

Against last season's quarter-finalist team the University of Louisville, Harvard scored 72 points and suppressed their opponents' scores to 41!

The huge margin of 31 points tells everyone that whether it is an Ivy League league or a single-elimination NCAA tournament, Harvard University plays with the same ease.

Next, the round of 32 won by 27 points, the round of 16 won another 30 points, and the round of 8 won by 23 points, but in the round of 4, Harvard encountered a little trouble.

In the round of 4, Harvard's opponent is North Carolina.

Last season, North Carolina lost to Harvard University in the Round of 4, and this season, North Carolina's four kings (Lawson, Hansbro, Ellington, Danny. Green) chose to stay behind and try to challenge for the NCAA championship, but they were sadly surprised to meet Harvard again in the Final Four.

This game was very anxious for a while, and it was difficult to distinguish between the two sides in the first half, and it can be seen that after North Carolina lost to Harvard last season, it conducted a very in-depth analysis of Harvard's team tactical system, and there were many targeted tactical arrangements on the field.

But they are facing a Kidd version of Jeremy Lin that has become more and more mature.

When Jeremy Lin began to exert his strength in the second half, North Carolina was a little unbearable.

In the end, the score between the two teams was 81-75, and Harvard won by six points, which was the first game since the season in which Harvard did not score more than double digits.

Wang Xiao remembers very well that the original champion of the 09 NCAA Championship should be this North Carolina, and the original 09 champion also fell in front of Harvard, and there is no team that can stop Harvard's iron horse.

The next development was the same as Wang Xiao expected.

In the finals, Harvard faced another team that emerged from the round of 64 and staged a massacre without any suspense.

With 26 points, that's the final Harvard goal difference, and this team is much worse than North Carolina in the Final Four.

Unprecedented!

Harvard Wins '09 NCAA Tournament Championship!

This championship has broken countless records, for example, this is the first time that an Ivy League team has won the championship, and it is also the first NCAA Championship championship in the history of Harvard, Jeremy Lin won the MOP award with an average of 23 points, 12 assists, 6 rebounds and 4 steals per game, becoming the first MOP in history to win this award.

And Wang Xiao also broke the record of the youngest head coach in the history of the NCAA to win the championship at the age of 31 years and 61 days!

After the game, almost all the sports media focused on the question of when Harvard's dynasty would collapse.

This is a very real problem.

The NCAA is different from the NBA, because the NCAA players are all students, and the maximum time they play is four years.

And many NCAA players who play in value will also participate in the draft in advance, such as the University of Memphis, which was ranked No. 1 in the United States last year, the core of the team, Rose and Roberts, both sophomores, announced their participation in the NBA draft after the tournament, and the University of Memphis, which lost its twin stars, did not even make it to the tournament this season.

The same is true for UCLA, where Westbrook and Love all entered the NBA in the draft, and last year's team in the Final Four also stumbled due to the loss of the team's core.

There are players joining the NBA or graduating, and naturally there are new players joining and supplementing, and the NCAA's powerhouse will be different every year, and every year will bring a sense of anticipation to the audience, which is also the charm of the NCAA.

The problem with Harvard is that the school system is not attractive enough for players.

Tuition fees are expensive, and there are no corresponding sports scholarships, which can discourage many talented players.

So when this year's Jeremy Lin, Plain and Dunn joined the NBA one after another, Harvard, which had no fresh blood to replenish, would naturally be beaten back to its original shape.

Of course, the media will not forget whose credit is for all that Harvard has now.

Ghost Talent Coach - Wang Xiao!

No one will doubt that if Wang Xiao continues to stay at Harvard, Harvard will be as strong as ever.

But not many people believe that Wang Xiao will stay at Harvard.

A long time ago, Wang Xiao expressed his thoughts about joining the NBA more than once.

According to exclusive reports from many media, Wang Xiao seems to have been in contact with many NBA teams during the year, and even went to Houston during the holidays to contact Morey, the general manager of the Rockets.

There is a lot of news about chasing after the wind and shadows, although I don't know which one is true and which one is false, but there is no doubt about one thing, that is, as long as there is a chance, Wang Xiao will definitely return to the NBA.

And then...... Suddenly, a media outlet published such a message.

"Exclusive! Harvard Wizards signed with the Washington Wizards to coach NBA teams in the new season! ”

The outlet has always been known for its exclusive and intimate reporting, and nine times out of ten, the news reported is true.

Although this media did not come up with any substantial evidence, this news is by no means chasing after the wind!

Because soon, the media broke out that in December last year, Wang Xiao had gone to Washington alone.

Is Wang Xiao really going back to the NBA?

For a while, a large number of media reporters rushed to find evidence, and many people directly called Wang Xiao for verification.

After choosing Durant and being fired by the boss, Wang Xiao's phone was blown up again.

People were eager to confirm the authenticity of the news with Wang Xiao, but Wang Xiao did not answer this question positively.

However, since the news has been exposed, there is no need to continue to hide it.

Originally, Wang Xiao and the Wizards signed a contract that was not immediately executed, because the current coach was still needed to finish this season's game.

To put it more bluntly, it is necessary to have a person who is responsible for the team.

Now, the regular season is nearing its end, and the Wizards are in the bottom of the East with 19 wins and 63 losses, which is also tied with the Clippers in the West for third place.

So, a few days later, the Wizards officially confirmed that Wang Xiao's joining the Wizards was not groundless, and they did get the NCAA ghost coach!

As soon as this news was issued, it immediately caused an uproar in the NBA.
