March Madness was about to begin. The physical condition and training status of every Tiger player would be recorded in detail.
These things would help Calipari form a tactical arrangement and rotation decision.
Calipari was Larry Brown's disciple. In the 1982-85 season, Calipari was Brown's assistant at the University of Kansas.
Then, in the 1999-2000 season, he became Old Brown's assistant again in Philadelphia. However, Calipari's most famous tactic was the Ddm tactic (Dribbling the ball to break through the offensive tactic). The inventor of this tactic was Vance Wilberg, and it was eventually carried forward by Calipari's men. Especially during his years as a coach at the University of Morris, his whirlwind speed was jaw-dropping!!
" Derrick Rose is healthy and in good condition. His strength is stronger than before."
" Robert's shooting feel is still stable. He's a little lighter, so the resistance might be a little lower…"
.......
"Zhang Luo's dribbling skills have improved significantly. His speed and ability to combine with the ball have improved.”
"Dozel was beaten up by Zhang Luo in the one-on-one training inside the lane.”
"Zhang Luo's shooting percentage at the three-point line reached 93.4%."
"I suggest that we use Zhang Luo in the top 32.”
Cui Wanjun reported to Calipari.
"Although Zhang looks like he's shooting well in training, his three-pointer percentage is only 22%, and his two-pointer percentage is only 39%.”Another assistant manager, Jackson, said.
"Hey, Cui, Zhang is a good seedling, but his confrontation is too bad. If he can improve his confrontation, I think the team will have more opportunities next season.”Defensive coach Deli also said.
Calipari didn't interrupt the discussion of the teaching assistants.
He got two pieces of information from the report.
"Zhang Luo's shooting has become more stable.”
"He wasn't crushed like before in his confrontation with Dozel.”
Calipari had given Zhang Luo a chance.
In his opinion, the previous Zhang Luo was too weak to play inside and not good enough to aim outside!
However, during today's training, this guy seemed to have made significant progress.
Calipari hesitated before saying,""Put him on the list of the top 32!”
Calipari's system was suitable for a player like Zhang Luo.
The Tigers 'main scorers were two defenders, who played fast. Zhang Luo's dirty play suited the Tigers in a way.
If Zhang Luo performed as well as he did in training today, Calipari could give him a few minutes to play in the knockout round.
Calipari was also thinking about next season. Ross and Robert were going to be in the running this season, and the team's strength would inevitably decline. By next season, veteran players like Zhang Luo would be very important in building the system.
Hearing that Zhang Luo was on the list, Cui Wanjun was full of enthusiasm!
He had to go and teach Zhang Luo more lessons to prevent this kid from making mistakes on the court.
......
This year, with a 33 - 1 record, the University of Pennsylvania became the No. 1 seed in the Southern Division!
The NCAA Tournament was divided into four divisions, and each division was ranked from seeds 1 to 17. The first round was between the 16th and 17th seeds. In the second round, all teams would participate in the competition. The winner of the first round would face the division's No. 1 seed, the No. 15 seed would face the No. 2 seed, the No. 14 seed would face the No. 3 seed, and so on.
The winner of each round would enter the next round, and the higher ranked seeded teams might meet later.
In the end, each division would decide a champion team to form the final four.
In the end, the top four would fight each other, and the winner would fight for the championship.
Single-round elimination system!
This was March Madness.
Zhang Luo finally witnessed the madness of March Madness.
In the past few days in school, almost all the students at the University of Pennsylvania were talking about their game.
As soon as he entered the stadium, he could feel the overwhelming cheers. This kind of basketball atmosphere made him yearn for it.
After bidding farewell to the Super Bowl in early February, the NCAA March Madness brought a new round of sports revelry to fans.
Since the founding of the NCAA in 1939, generations of students have been involved in it. They have grown up with March Madness, and decades of baptism have nurtured a large number of fans for March Madness.
From the most intuitive data point of view, the media once had such a survey. If the NCAA finals and the NBA finals were held at the same time, which one would you choose to watch?
In the end, 87% of those who voted chose the NCAA finals.
Even on the day of the NCAA Finals, the NBA would give way and not arrange any games.
In the dining hall, in the cafeteria, almost every fan was discussing the team in March Madness!
March 1st!
7 PM!
The University of Pennsylvania versus the University of Memphis
The game was held at the Griffin Grizzlies 'home stadium, the Federal Express Arena.
The stadium, which could only accommodate 18,000 people, had at least 25,000 people tonight.
Zhang Luo's scalp went numb when he saw so many fans.
Compared to the NBA, the NCAA was not as commercial. Their basketball was more pure.
There were many celebrities and officials sitting on the sidelines. Of course, NBA scouts were also essential. The main targets of these scouts were Ross and Robert.
These two rookies were almost certain to enter the first round of the NBA, especially Ross, who was a favorite for the first draft pick.
As for Zhang Luo, no one paid attention to this nobody!!
