Bab 8: Chapter 8 The top ten most anticipated newcomers in the new season!
The news that the Georgetown University warm-up game slaughtered North Carolina quickly spread across the United States.
Of course, that's not possible.
First of all, this is just a warm-up game between NCAA teams.
Second, the two sides didn't even send their biggest stars, such as Georgetown's Allen Iverson.
Just a story between three newcomers, it is difficult to set off any huge social discussion in the United States.
Plus it's only 1995.
The development of the network is far less than that of the 1990s in the future. A warm-up game is insignificant.
Although the war did not spread across the United States, at least Mo Ran's name appeared in the NCAA preview section of the Washington Post.
The highest-ranked school in the Washington, D.C./District.
The Georgetown University exclamation team has always been the focus of the "Washington Post".
In the NCAA Season Preview section.
Except for the big-ticket introduction of Allen Iverson.
Mo Ran, who scored a large double-double in the warm-up game and almost contributed a triple-double, has become the new favorite of the editor.
"Look, these guys at The Washington Post aren't fools."
On the campus of Georgetown University.
Flip through the latest issue of The Washington Post.
Allen Iverson, wearing a hip-hop fashion suit, walked into the school arena:
"Mo, they say you're the top 10 most anticipated superstars this season."
Before the start of the NCAA season every year, various media will list the most anticipated superstars in their minds.
for example:
In the most influential sports magazine in the United States – "Sports Illustrated".
The most anticipated college star this year is Allen Iverson.
Tim Duncan is recognized by the media as the strongest college player.
But his style of play and character are far less popular than Iverson's.
Therefore, AI is also the most anticipated college star in the United States.
As for the latest rookie ranking prediction.
Tim Duncan of Wake Forest University is still No. 1.
Allen Iverson of Georgetown came in second.
The third place belongs to Marcus Camby of the University of Massachusetts.
Mo Ran's name didn't even appear in the 60-person ranking.
And the most anticipated top ten super newcomers.
Vince Carter of North Carolina.
Stephen Marbury of Georgia Tech.
Sharif Rahim of the University of California rounds out the top three.
Among the list behind, there is also Antoine Jamison of North Carolina.
"Larry Bird II" Keith Van Horn of the University of Utah and more.
All of them were in high school, and they were well-known powerhouses!
Naturally, this "Sports Illustrated" list of the top ten most anticipated newcomers does not have Mo Ran's name.
Not just Sports Illustrated.
There is no Mo Ran's name in the list of the top ten newcomers to look forward to in the NCAA new season by other media in the United States.
Even in the 60-man rookie ranking lists of various media, Mo Ran's name did not appear.
Only the "Washington Post", the 10th most anticipated top ten newcomers, gave Mo Ran a chance to appear.
They are also the only newspapers and magazines to put Mo Ran on the list of the most anticipated newcomers of the new season.
"Other newspapers are more mentally retarded."
Jerome Williams handed the AI a copy of The New York Times, and then looked at Mo Ran: "Mo, you obviously blew up Vince and Jamison's North Carolina."
"But they didn't even mention your name!"
Carter and Jamison are the most mentioned freshmen in these newspapers and magazines.
On the contrary, it was the warm-up game that knocked these two Mo Ran out, and only appeared in the local Washington newspaper.
What is this called!
"Newspapers are enough to pass the time, there is no need to care."
Mo Ran didn't feel it: "I only read the newspaper when I go to the toilet."
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to say that the editors of these newspapers are all **."
Iverson threw the New York Times aside: "Mo, the start date of the new season has been set, and we will be able to fight side by side soon."
"Surprise the whole of America!"
In Iverson's view, Mo Ran, the beast of the heaven, was born out of nowhere.
The absolute force will shock the American basketball circle without the slightest defense!
At that time, what will be the expressions on the faces of the media who did not even mention Mo Ran's name?
AI just made up for it, and almost laughed.
"Alan, did you think of anything funny?"
When several young people communicated.
Georgetown coach John Thompson paced over: "Why don't you change into your training uniform? It's only a few days before the new season starts!"
"Got it, Coach Thompson."
Iverson waved his hand: "Even if I don't train, it won't affect the performance on the court~"
Even if you don't train, it won't affect your performance on the court.
Hearing Iverson's words, Mo Ran suddenly remembered that some media in the future criticized AI and did not like training.
But later, Iverson actually clarified.
It was only after a certain loss that he was too lazy to respond to the reporter's topic about training, so he opened his mouth and replied casually.
As a result, it was passed that I didn't like training!
Unexpectedly, the habit of AI opening its mouth has been cultivated since college.
"Mo, take a rest first."
After sending off the uneasy Iverson, John Thompson walked to Mo Ran's side: "Don't worry about training, I have something to tell you."
"The team's opponent in the first game of the new season is the Red Storm of St. John's University."
"Allen is this year's NCAA superstar, and he's definitely going to be the focus of St. John's perimeter care."
"St. John's University's outside defense is very good. Relatively, their inside defense is relatively weak. The height of inside players is generally around 2.05 meters."
Knowing that the opponent will heavily defend Iverson on the perimeter, limiting AI.
And the opponent's inside line defense + inside line height is obviously insufficient.
Coach John Thompson decisively made a tactical shift strategy:
"Mo, I hope you can crush the inside line of St. John's University in the opener."
"The team will focus more on you as the tactical center and create a tactical system!"
With Mo Ran's powerful interior destructive power, he defeated the defensive system of St. John's University.
Thus liberating Allen Iverson.
Then let AI and Mo Ran exert their strength inside and outside to win the victory in one fell swoop and win the season.
That's how Coach John Thompson wins!
Of course, the only question now is:
Can Mo Ran destroy the opponent's defense system by himself like in the warm-up game?
