The Way of the Center

Chapter 33



Chapter 33 : Hunter ready to move

“I haven’t called yet, hey.” Seeing that An Jie hadn’t called yet, the beard sighed. It seems that the Cyclone team is over this season.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of laughter coming from the distance of the block, and the sound seemed to be getting closer and closer to his shop.

“How come there are drunks at noon?” Beard was about to walk out of the store to have a look, but a group of people pushed in. Many of the people who walked in knew all the bearded people. They were the players of the Iowa State University Cyclone team.

“How did you find such a far place?” Anthony Ben looked around at this seemingly featureless restaurant.

“Don’t worry, the taste is guaranteed to your satisfaction.” As he said, An Jie walked over to the bearded man behind the bar.

“We can say yes, I will give you the ticket, you will give me a celebration. No, I brought all the people.” An Jie rubbed his elbow with the boss who was staying in place.

“Ouch! Guests! Private room please!” The beard suddenly reacted as if he was waking up from a big dream, and he warmly greeted the Cyclone players and walked towards a room.

“Dad, why are there so many customers all of a sudden?” Catherine had just returned to the shop after class, and it was rare to find that more than a dozen people had actually arrived in the shop.

All the Cyclone players were attracted by the pleasant sound. They all looked back and saw Catherine’s blue eyes full of curiosity.

“I finally know how this kid An Jie found here.” Anthony had to admit that if it hadn’t been for An Jie to hit him up a long time ago.

“Asakin, what do you look at, boy? You are not afraid that Anjie eats you on the training ground!” Mike Taylor dragged Asakin into the private room. In the past few months, these young and energetic boys, apart from attending classes and training, are competitions. Even the girls from the cheerleaders have been rushed to the open court by Ricard to rehearse, just because they are afraid of distraction. It’s alright now, suddenly I saw a sweet-looking girl and they all showed their fangs one by one.

“Sure enough, there is no serious person in this group of guys.” Catherine looked at the group of tall boys contemptuously, really gathering together.

“Everyone, how about I leave a photo for everyone as a memento?” The beard did not take the menu, but walked into the private room with a camera.

“It’s done, it’s done!” The bearded man kept pressing the shutter with his fingers, his mouth couldn’t close with a smile.

A group of people were playing around in the private room, Ricard also put aside his usual seriousness and mingle with the players. It didn’t take long before the beard made a big table of dishes, and everyone slobbered looking at the various Chinese dishes. Suddenly, almost everyone rushed to the table and ate it gorgingly.

This group of young people who have no image now has no appearance of an urban idol at all. It was this group of seemingly sloppy guys that led the Tornadoes to the NCAA March Madness Championship for the first time since 1986. Such a long time has made many people in Ames almost forgotten about the enthusiasm of this stage.

March Madness is really the most appropriate interpretation of the NCAA Sixty Four knockout, the most veritable description. From the opening game to the final finals, only a short period of one month, the best college basketball teams and basketball players in the United States gathered here, in this short time to use the most tragic way to win.

From the first game to the championship, a team only needs to go through six games, as long as they win six games, they can raise the trophy that symbolizes the highest honor.

At this time of year, the eyes of basketball enthusiasts from all over the United States gather on this field. Even the scouts and managers of NBA teams will keep a great deal of attention on the March Madness tournament. On the final day of the NCAA game, even the NBA had to give way to it. This shows that March Madness has received a high degree of attention, which is unmatched by the regular season of each league.

In the seven-game four-win NBA playoffs, the league has done everything possible to stifle the element of luck. A team can only rely on strength to win four games to advance to the next round. So whenever the black eight miracle appears in the playoffs, everyone will be excited about it.

And the NCAA March Madness game system is simply a hotbed of dark horses. There is no chance to make a team comeback again. Whether you are North Carolina or UCLA, as long as you relax a little in a game, that’s it. Can only come again next year.

lore, overtime, dark horses, giants, defeating the strong with the weak, the stars of the future… all these things make fans want to stop. March Madness is also named, the most exciting month, the easiest month to become famous, and the most memorable month for everyone.

And now, these guys who can’t even walk at the dinner table are about to enter this crazy basketball hall.

The next day, major newspapers published the list of teams participating in the NCAA March Madness Championship this season, and the Iowa State University Cyclone team of the Big Twelve League was listed impressively.

When many coaches saw the name of Iowa State University, they were full of strangeness, and they were more curious about the team’s unusual lineup. “With a Chinese center as the core!?”

In the past ten years, there have not been many cases where the NCAA center has led the team to the championship. With the exception of Emeka Okafor leading Connecticut to the championship in 2004, the rest may be traced back to when Ewing was still in college. In this trend of rapid offensive and defensive transitions, the center has long been reduced to a machine that is only responsible for passing, pick-and-rolls and rebounds.

So after reading the scouting report of the Tornado, many coaches, like the critics at the beginning of the season, did not pay attention to the Tornado team. The second-placed team from the Big Twelve League is really retro style, not to mention that the head center of the Tornado team is just a first-year rookie, and he is still a Chinese. Do people in Ames really think that any tall Chinese can become Yao Ming?

If Ricard knew that he was being ignored by most of his opponents, he would surely be too happy to fall asleep. The more neglected the team, the more likely it is to break the siege. However, even if Ricard was strong, he couldn’t see through the minds of others, so he could only start his own training program step by step.

After a day of fooling around with the players in the bearded restaurant, Ricard became the serious and unsmiling coach. If someone does a bad job, he will be punished after he finishes his instruction. Are they dissatisfied with the punishment or complaining? It’s simple, impose penalties. But now almost no one will be penalized, Ricard has established a high prestige among the players, so no one will come to question him.

Divac also drove back to Ames from his home in Serbia. His guidance to Anjie has not ended yet. Stepping onto the stage of March Madness, this kid will only meet more powerful opponents, and he has to continue his training.

Wu Hua has not been idle these days. March Madness is about to start, so An Jie’s interview is definitely indispensable.

“The last question, in your concept, what do you think the basketball game in March Madness will be like?” After Wu Hua finished speaking, he picked up the recorder and prepared to start recording. He has been doing an exclusive interview with An Jie for half an hour. These things are enough for him to write a column An Jie meditated for a few seconds. In the past few months, he has been in the American College Basketball League. I have played 33 games on the field, and I still have a lot of feelings in my heart, but I have to sum it up in one sentence…

“It is the purest art and pure violence. This is the March Madness in my imagination.” An Jie is now very comfortable facing interviews.

“You are becoming more and more popular in China, and many people even called for you to be selected for the national team to participate in the BJ Olympics in a few months. Although this is just a casual statement, it also highlights the domestic fans’ Your expectations. Don’t let us down An Jie, play well. The general environment of Chinese basketball is not good. You are a rare player who started completely abroad and cherish it. Oh, this is not the content of the interview, it’s a friend Private advice from time to time.” Wu Hua smiled and signaled that he had already turned off the recorder.

“I will work hard for Angkor, but I didn’t expect NCAA to get attention in China.”

“The attention is naturally not as good as Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, but you are already a little famous in China.” Wu Hua laughed again, and An Jie’s increase in attention can be said to be indispensable.

The breath of March Madness is getting stronger and stronger, and An Jie’s attention is getting higher and higher. As a result, An Jie didn’t dare to lower his demands on himself, and he still worked hard every day until late. No matter who the opponent is, Anjie is ready and waiting for the referee to whistle.
