December 20th.

St. Mary's High School's final race before the Christmas break and the final race of the "Division Qualifiers."

After this game, St. Mary's High School ushered in a small winter break.

When the winter vacation is over, it will be the "regional competition".

St. Mary's High School, which has already confirmed its status as a wildcard team and entered the Ohio Division I High School League, will face more fierce competition.

Therefore, even if the wins and losses in the last few games have no effect, Drew still strictly requires the team's offensive and defensive transitions, and uses these few games to adjust the state.

As the first varsity team in Ohio High School League history to complete a "grade skip" in the middle of the season, Drew doesn't want to be in the more competitive Division I league and let people play as a "punching bag"!

At that time, it will not be a legend, but a joke.

With full firepower, St. Mary's easily beat her opponent by 55 points in this game.

LeBron James chipped in a luxurious 22 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

But tonight's brightest player was definitely Woody.

He once again surpassed LeBron James in scoring, scoring 27 points on 12-of-16 shooting, plus 3-of-4 free throws, in addition to 20 rebounds and two assists.

"Double 20"!

This is the first time Woody has achieved such dazzling statistics since the new season.

Drew found that Woody seemed stronger than he had at the start of the season.

This is really not Drew's delusion.

Because the first phase of the schedule has come to an end from early November to late December, Woody is more comfortable with this league.

Just like Yao Ming's first few games in the NBA, the statistics were very miserable, but after adapting, he gradually played good statistical performances, and from time to time he could contribute the league's first-class interior play.

Now, Woody is also showing his dominance over the alliance.

What's more, Woody's rebounding ability has increased to 70 points!

This is already the ability to grab the board only in the NBA as a rotation bench, and in the second-tier high school league, it is really no different from "beating a son".

In addition, his ability to score under the basket has increased to 53 points, and combined with his NBA-level physicality, it is easy to bomb the basket as long as he is close to the basket.

Most of the high school basketball teams are not 1.90 meters tall.

Also, how can there be so many "tall men"!

The average height of American men is only 1.77 meters......

With absolute strength, coupled with the weakness of the opponent, Woody is naturally getting more and more aggressive!

Looking at the reporters who had now subconsciously run towards Woody, LeBron James's expression appeared uncontrollably gloomy, but soon, he adjusted his facial expression to make himself look happy with Woody's performance.

So far, all 18 games in the first phase of the new season have ended, and St. Mary's High School, under the leadership of Woody and LeBron, has won 18 consecutive victories, and has won an average of 450 points per game, setting a record for the net score of a team in the Ohio Division II High School League in the first stage.

LeBron James averaged 27.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block in 18 games. In addition to rebounding, he still leads the team in several other statistics.

It's just that......

Woody's per game stats are even better.

He averaged 26 points, 17 rebounds and 3 assists per game in these 18 games!

The shooting percentage was close to 70% at one point!

If in the first 8 games of the season, LeBron James's statistics faced Woody and still had some advantages, then now, it is really hard to say, which side has more advantages!

After all, he averaged almost 10 rebounds behind Woody per game, but only led by 1.5 points and 3.5 assists.

"Twin Stars Shine" is not just an adjective, Woody can really be equal to him in terms of data!

However, the head coaches of other high school teams in the league are even more unhappy, and many coaches who are unwilling to disclose their names bluntly said, "With the configuration of St. Mary's High School, can you win with a dog on the bench differently?" ”

Have a half-dime relationship with him Drew?

Drew smiled in the face of these doubts:

Jealousy, these people are jealous!

He can understand, let alone others, even he can't believe that this is the lineup he can coach.

You know, in addition to the "double star shine", St. Mary's High School also has a freshman Stephen Curry who can average 12.5 points and 3.5 assists per game, and the 14-year-old can now contribute an average of 2.5 three-pointers per game.

Even if Woody and LeBron leave next summer, Drew won't be blinded.

The strongest man is already in the battle!

There's a special audience member in today's auditorium – Woody Hayes!

This is the head coach of Ohio State University.

The Buckeyes belong to the Big Ten League, a member of the NCAA Division I League, and once won the NCAA championship in 1960, and then became more and more declining, especially in the past ten years, only entered the "National Championship", that is, "March Madness", and the results are not ideal.

The most recent was three years ago, when they had Michael Reed, the "sharpshooter" who is now gradually gaining a foothold with the Bucks. Interestingly, Reed was known for his breakouts in college, but his shooting ability was criticized.

However, this is not an isolated case, and there are many more players like Michael Reed who have transitioned in the NBA.

The reason is nothing more than the physical fitness that can go sideways in the NCAA, and it will not be used in the NBA, and at this time, players need to light up their "skill tree", otherwise they will not be able to gain a foothold in the league at all.

Therefore, there is nothing to discuss whether playing the NBA is more important than technique or physical fitness. If you have physical fitness, you can at least enter this alliance, but without physical fitness, you don't even have a "stepping stone".

Remember, any so-called NBA player who is not very physically fit can beat a crowd of people outside the NBA, with few exceptions. Even a guy like Steve Nash who looks mediocre in physical fitness.

The Ohio State has not had much to add after Michael Reed, and now that three years have passed, the entire Ohio State basketball team is in desperate need of a "hero" to save the team.

Woody Hayes was targeting LeBron James at first.

But with Gloria James being accused of taking bribes, although LeBron James has not yet announced that he will skip the NCAA and enter the NBA, in fact, his NCAA path has been cut off.

No player can fight against the rules set by a "behemoth" like the NCAA.

Even if it is LeBron, a "phenomenal newcomer" who has been in the limelight in recent years.

When he heard that there was another "Junhou Sheng" from Huaxia in the local area, and he had the same name as himself, Woody Hayes has always been very concerned, and after watching Woody a few games, he was even more sure that Woody was the person he was looking for.

So, with a lot of sincerity, a full scholarship commitment, and even a part-time job in the library offered by the school,—— he heard that Woody's family was not very good. I came to St. Mary's College to have a good talk with Woody.

As for this game, it was the last consideration before the official interview with Woody.

The result......

Woody Hayes is already working out the team's tactics for next year for Woody.

It's to leave all the balls to him to deal with!

Or leave it all to him?

It's just that he was smiling and walked towards Woody, who walked out of a scout quickly, pulled out an envelope, and handed it to Woody.

It was an ordinary yellow envelope, but Woody Hayes's pupils instinctively shrank as he thought of a certain figure.

Legend has it that everyone who is favored by him will receive a handwritten letter from him!

The vast majority of high school students will also be honored and proud to receive his handwritten letter......

Duke Blues' legendary coach Lao K also has a crush on Woody?
