Chapter 50: I Want Dignity Redick (Ask for Recommendations!!) )
The NCAA National Championship is a brutal game.
After the first round, half of the teams will be eliminated.
The victor continues to pursue his dream with joy, while the loser leaves this dream land gloomily.
Whether it will be goodbye or never seen again after leaving, no one knows.
Opportunity, maybe once in a lifetime, is incomparably precious.
The University of Washington and Louisiana Tech University competition is the grand finale on March 16.
Before playing against Louisiana Tech, Yes knew who their next opponent would be.
The giant team of the NCAA, the University of Kentucky in the quarterfinals last year!
After the departure of Chuck Hayes and Azubuuk, Kentucky has not been able to replenish enough strong fresh blood, and this year's strength has declined very significantly.
On March 17, 2006, the University of Washington stayed in the hotel except for daily practice, and everyone watched ESPN and CBS's NCAA live broadcast on TV all day.
“Yes! We're qualified, and we're 40 points better than Belmont University! ”
As soon as he watched the UCLA and Belmont University match, UCLA's Affralo called excitedly.
As one of the four giants of the NCAA, UCLA has really messed up in the past two years.
I didn't even come to the tournament the year before last, and I was swept away in the first round last year.
So, having only reached a second round this year, Afflaro was as happy as anything.
"I didn't expect UCLA to be so strong in the first NCAA game, and a big win of 40 points should be second only to our big win"
In the P-10 League, UCLA was beaten three times by the University of Washington, losing by a small 20 points in each game.
This gave them the illusion that this year's UCLA was a fish belly.
This time I came to the NCAA, and this fish belly instantly turned into a big shark.
Not only UCLA, but after the first round, the four teams in the P-10 league that entered the NCAA performed well overall.
The University of Washington and UCLA advanced by a wide margin.
The University of California, Berkeley and the University of Arizona both defeated the high-seeded teams as low-seeded.
"Maybe the teams in the P-10 league are not weak this year, but we are too strong?!"
There were very few upsets in the 32 games in the first round of the NCAA, and the two biggest upsets were the University of Arizona beating the University of Wisconsin in the P-10 league and the University of California, Berkeley, beating Michigan State University.
Wisconsin is the top four, Michigan State University was the top four last year!
And Michigan State University's leading guard, Shannon Brown, who has a lottery prospect, is still on the team, and Shannon Brown was originally ready to make a big play this year to hit the higher pick.
Unexpectedly, he was upset by the University of California, Berkeley in the first round.
"What is Shannon Brown, the team that came out of our P-10 league this year has long been hammered and hammered by Yes and Brandon, refined and refined, and the last thing I am afraid of is those outside strong teams, no matter how strong you are, there can still be Yes and Roy strong!"
Seeing Afraro's arrogant appearance in an interview with CBS on TV, Yes didn't know what to say.
The teams in the P-10 league trembled for a season under his and Roy's obscenity.
Shivering can still have such an effect?
All four teams in the P-10 league made the NCAA first round, which caused huge attention across the country.
Of the 32 teams in the second round, four were in one district, which is still very rare.
For a while, all eyes were on the performance of the four teams in the P-10 league in the second round of the NCAA.
The University of Washington is the overall No. 1 seed this year, and there will be no problem playing Kentucky in the second round.
On March 18, 2006, the University of Washington defeated Kentucky 84-61 at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena.
It's still the style of this year's University of Washington, a big win of more than 20 points!
However, Kentucky guard Rajon Rondo caused a lot of problems for Yes in this game.
This small, skinny-looking defender is hard and tangled, with long and large hands.
Although Rajon Rondo's offense was sparse, he played the whole game under Yes's defense.
But his defense and passing were really good.
Yes bumped into him, or was grabbed by his thugs, as if he had hit an iron plate or was caught in an iron tong.
Very uncomfortable!
"This is the first time I've seen Yes play so badly when I'm commenting on Yes's game, Rajon Rondo? Last year's freshman was the NCAA's overall steal king?! ”
"It's a pity that it's a little shorter, and if you enter the NBA, you will be targeted."
Still kicked in the ass!
After the match between the University of Washington and the University of Kentucky, Rajon Rondo was upset.
In this game, he deliberately asked to be in the opposite position with Ye Si, just to avenge being kicked by Ye Si.
But in the end, he worked hard for the whole game, and he vomited after Ye Si, but he still let Ye Si get the highest score of 34 on 10 of 21 shots!
After a comfortable win over the University of Kentucky, the University of Washington became the first team in the P-10 league to reach the round of 16 of the NCAA.
Immediately afterward, the University of California, Berkeley, once again defeated the opponent by a weak victory.
This time it was the University of Nevada led by Ramon Sessions.
After the University of California, Berkeley advanced to the round of 16, they met none other than Yees and the University of Washington, who had abused them for a season!
"This year's P-10 league is too strong, we have nothing to say about losing, their defense is very good, not only can they contain, but they can also expand out, the defense is very flexible, and they can't be penetrated at all!"
The defense of the University of California, Berkeley, which was abused by Yees and Roy, was evaluated by Sessions as an impenetrable defense.
After the second round of the NCAA, the four P-10 teams that were on the spotlight in the United States did not all advance again, but they still advanced to three.
"It's a pity for the University of Arizona, who met this year's overall third seed Villanueva University in the second round."
"It's not bad, 78-82, a small loss of 4 points, the backcourt combination of Kyle Lowry and Randy Foye almost went undercover, and the two star backcourts actually need Dante Cunningham as a substitute forward to save the game"
"It seems that UCLA's Afflalo is not talking nonsense, and the P-10 league is very experienced in defending the star backcourt this year!"
"I can only say that Yes and Roy are too sharp, and after being stabbed by Yes and Roy, the other guards come and poke them again, and they don't feel anything, it's very dull."
"It should be said that the teams in the P-10 league have studied a bunch of ways to deal with Roy and Yes this season, and it doesn't work on Yes and Roy, but it can be used on other star backcourts"
"Look at it this way, all the star backcourts in the NCAA this year are really Yes and Roy are the strongest!"
After completing two games in Jacksonville, Yes and the University of Washington came to Atlanta.
The University of Washington's round of 16 and quarterfinals will be played in Atlanta.
March 23, 2006, Georgia Dome, Atlanta.
The University of Washington takes on fellow league rivals the University of California, Berkeley.
The University of California, Berkeley, which had an impressive performance in the NCAA this year, staged a crisp defeat and a fiasco, witnessed by more than 70,000 spectators at the Georgia Dome!
The P-10 League Steel Defense, which is a headache for the backcourt of stars like Kyle Lowry and Randy Foye these days, is like papier-mâché under the bombardment of Yes and Roy!
98-72, the University of Washington won by 26 points!
"It's useless!"
"Don't be lucky, our next opponent is the University of Washington!"
"That's fine, you can finally get revenge!"
In the box at the Georgia Dome, Reddick took a heavy breath.
Yes, the next game is when you get to know me again!
JJ Reddick looked at the white nine condescendingly, his eyes full of unwillingness and hatred......
The dignity that has been trampled on for half a year can finally be picked up!
