"And Ed Bos!" Coach Thompson ignored everyone's expectant looks and read out Ed's name, "Okay, boys, go tame these wild horses?"

"Oh! No!", including Ed himself, five starting players wailed at the same time, "Coach, how many games do you have to see us lose before you are happy?"

"Are you sure you are doing your best every minute on the court?" Coach Thompson's tone became stern, "As long as you stand on the basketball court, you must devote all your energy to the game.

Instead of praying for a savior on the bench! Now, let me all play!"

Patrice first clenched his fist, then slowly released it, and said angrily, "The coach is right, there are five of us on the field now, let us tear this wild horse into pieces!", he raised his right hand.

Shinping put himself in the middle of the crowd and shouted, "Who are we?!"

"Tiger!", "Tiger!", each one slapped their hands on top of each other, shouting the name of the Princeton Tiger loudly, "One, two, three! Guys! Come on! Tear the mustang to pieces!"

"What are they shouting?" Broncos center Anthony Kane looked at the Tigers dugout and casually asked point guard Robbie Crum beside him.

"Probably calling their team name?" Robbie picked his ears, "What's the name of their team? Hello Kitty?"

"Hahaha! Yes, that's the name!" The Broncos dugout burst into laughter.

"Hey, kitten." In the center circle, Anthony looked at Patrice, who was about to dance with him, "You should go to the masquerade party with your mistress, this is not the place for you to come!"

Patrice looked up at Anthony, who was two inches taller than him, clenched his fists, the referee blew the whistle, and threw the basketball high. Anthony bounced up and collided with Patrice in the air; damn, this

Did the guy tie lead weights under the jersey? Why is it so strong?

The basketball was passed to Ed by Patrice. Taking advantage of the fact that the Broncos were not in a good position, Patrice scored the first goal. Seeing the good start, Coach Thompson turned around and looked at Lu Qiujian, "Lu,

What do you think about my arrangements?"

"You are the coach, you have the final say!" It's so boring to sit here without being able to play. Do you want to bring a book to read next time? Lu Qiujian was thinking wildly.

"Lu, do you know the NCAA competition system?" Coach Thompson explained before Lu Qiujian could answer, "We don't start training together until November every year, and then we start to compete with opponents from other leagues in mid-to-late November.

Preseason games will be held; the victory or defeat in the preseason games will not be counted in the team's performance, but if we perform well, there is still hope that we will be selected by the organizing committee to be included in the knockout list without winning the league championship! But if we can defeat

Is there any reason why these opponents can’t beat Harvard and the others? Do you understand what I mean?”

"You mean that the opponents in the preseason are stronger than the opponents within the Ivy League, so instead of competing with them to fight for the illusory recommendation quota, why not fight for the Ivy League championship?" Lu Qiujian understood his words.

I mean, I still have to keep it to myself as a secret weapon!

"Yes, the recommendation quota depends not only on the team's record this year, but also on the team's history. If a famous basketball school like Duke accidentally loses the championship in the regular season, there is still hope of entering the knockout round through recommendation. For Princeton

There won’t be such good treatment! So we still have to focus on the regular season!” Coach Thompson felt relieved when he saw that there was no dissatisfaction in Lu Qiujian’s tone.

"I understand, you go and direct the game!" After Thompson turned around, the bored Lu Qiujian began to take stock of the situation on the court.

After the Broncos adapted to the Tigers' three-point axe, they began to gradually take the initiative on the court. Although Western Michigan University and the University of Michigan have similar names, they are on the same level in basketball, but Western Michigan University is in the review of basketball scholarships.

The school is not as strict as Princeton, so there are still some second- and third-rate high school geniuses hanging around here.

Like top students like Princeton, the boys of the Broncos may not be as smart as them, but their physical condition is far superior to them. Except for Patrice, everyone else is at a disadvantage in the physical confrontation.

"Pass the ball! Pass the ball! Don't panic, shoot decisively when you catch the ball!" Although Thompson almost shouted hoarse, the point difference between the two teams was still slowly widening.

"Timeout!" Seeing that the score difference was approaching double digits, coach Thompson couldn't bear it and called a timeout.

"Ley, you will replace Mick in a moment. When Ed hands the ball to Patrice in the high post, you will look for opportunities to cut in from both ribs. Will, you will help Ley open the space. If Patrice

If the opponent's defense is tight, then distribute the ball. If you are confident, go for singles, but your actions must be decisive..." Coach Thompson drew several offensive lines on the tactical board, "This way, this way, and this way,

Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Although the physical conditions could not keep up, Princeton's years of tradition and the players' own IQ allowed them to quickly understand Coach Thompson's tactical intentions and narrow the point difference to three points at the end of the first half.

.

"Good job!" Thompson high-fived the players on the field one by one and welcomed them back to the locker room.

The fierce competition in the first half consumed too much of the physical strength of these players. Looking at them all panting heavily, Lu Qiujian not only shook his head, but I am afraid it will be difficult to maintain the same rhythm in the second half.

After Thompson finished laying out the tactics for the second half and the players began to rest, he walked next to Patrice and said, "In the first half, Anthony chose to break through from the right five times in singles, twice from the left, and he shot three times from the left side of the penalty area.

He made one shot and three out of five from the right side; when defending, he used to jump into the air first and then make moves."

After speaking, he paused, and after Patrice had finished digesting the data, he said, "Do you understand how to deal with him now?"

Before Patrice could react, he turned to Ed, "Ed, when Robbie decides to make a breakthrough, he will lower his left shoulder slightly. When he decides to shoot, he will take a step forward and then step back to shoot. At the same time, he shot three times in the first half."

0-for-3 shooting from the field..."

"Gadson, your opponent..."

"Lei, the boy who is opposite you..."

"Will, that guy..."

Thompson and Black on the side had their mouths wide open, as if this kid had never seen statistics before. How did he remember so many statistics?

Note: I didn’t clarify the NCAA schedule earlier. The NCAA competition schedule is divided into 5 stages; the first stage: pre-match training stage: usually around October 15th to December 1st every year, a total of 6 weeks.

time to arrange the overall training of the whole team. The second stage: pre-season from December 1st to around January 1st. The competition at this stage is also a warm-up match; the results of the competition will not be included in the subsequent league results but will affect

Recommended quota. The third phase: January 1st-March 01st. Regular season. The fourth phase: March 1st-March 31st, crazy March. The fifth phase: Adjustment and rest period.04

Month - October.

I've moved the time forward, but let's treat it as a slight difference between the alien plane and the home plane, otherwise the protagonist would have nothing to do after just entering school for more than a month!
