After the regular season opener, the Wildcats' performance did not disappoint the fans.
Counting the previous warm-up games, the Wildcats have won seven consecutive games and have maintained a complete victory since the start of the game.
Before the game, fans once thought that the Wildcats would encounter some obstacles in the regular season and felt uneasy.
But I didn't expect the Wildcats to be so strong and crush their opponents to win with a strong attitude.
After the opening game, the Wildcats fans' confidence soared, and they firmly believed that the Wildcats could defeat any strong opponent and score a "Crazy Three" to achieve another great result.
After the opening game, not only the fans were happy, but Wildcats head coach Mike Lopp was also in a happy mood.
Under the leadership of Curry last season, the Wildcats reached the Elite Eight and created the best record in team history, which already made McClop happy.
This season, he clearly feels like the Wildcats are stronger than they were last year.
It can be known from the results of the opening game that in the Southern League, except for one or two teams that can compete with the Wildcats, the strength of other teams is too far behind the Wildcats. They are simply not on the same level and cannot be compared at all. .
"I may go one step further this year. If I can win the championship, my coaching career will be complete."
McClop quickly shook his head to suppress the distracting thoughts in his mind. He felt that his idea was whimsical and a bit unrealistic.
"Maybe the game was going too smoothly during this period, which made me start to think wildly. This is not a good sign. I have to find something to do to eliminate the distracting thoughts in my mind."
After McClop made up his mind, he planned to work overtime, pick up the information at hand, and carefully study the playing styles of the next few opponents.
The day after the game, Sun Yi had just completed a set of shooting training on the court when he heard Curry yelling.
"Sun, we are in the newspaper, come and take a look!"
Curry ran to Sun Yi excitedly and handed over the newspaper in his hand.
Sun Yi took the newspaper and opened it, and the first thing he saw was the eye-catching title with bold font.
"Shocked! Was it the distortion of human nature or the loss of morality that caused George Washington University to be massacred by 38 points!"
"In a row, Davidson College is about to dominate the Confederacy?!"
"The contradictory combination shines, the Sword Guide League champion!"
…
"Sun, what do you think after reading it?" Curry asked excitedly.
"Stephen, this is just a local newspaper. You are so excited. You have never seen the world."
Although Sun Yi said this, he was still a little excited in his heart.
Although it is only a local newspaper in the small town of Davidson, the content in it already speaks for itself.
Already, more and more media is paying attention to the Wildcats.
He believes that as the Wildcats continue to win, they will definitely become famous throughout the United States.
"Stephen, we have to keep up our efforts, win every game, and spread our reputation throughout the United States."
After Sun Yi finished speaking, he handed the newspaper to Curry and continued training.
After hearing this, Curry became high-spirited and quickly ran to the locker room with the newspaper to change equipment for training.
…
In the next week, the Wildcats defeated two weak teams and won three consecutive regular season games.
During this period, Sun Yi averaged 18.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 5.6 steals and 2.3 blocks per game.
The data seems to be very good, but it is not valuable at all!
In the Southern Conference, only steals can rank among the top ten in the league, and other statistics cannot be ranked at all.
It can be seen that the Southern League is really weak, and players with some strength can produce very good statistics.
Unable to improve during the game, Sun Yi, Curry and Dabai Bian started additional training again.
Previously, he believed that the intensity of the regular season would increase, and that after additional training, he would not be able to maintain his best competitive condition, which would have an impact on the game.
But after experiencing several regular season games, Sun Yi knew that he was overthinking and could win such a low-intensity game with only half his strength.
Curry also felt that there was no pressure at all in the regular season, so he resolutely joined the extra training team.
Therefore, after completing daily training every day, the three of them would stay for additional training.
"Sun, take a rest, I can't do it anymore!"
Curry waved his hand and sat down on the floor, showing that his body had been hollowed out.
In the bullfighting match that just ended, Sun Yi defeated Curry 21-18 and won with difficulty.
Now he and Curry have been able to fight inextricably, and the outcome is 50-50.
It shows that Sun Yi's overall strength has almost reached the quasi-NBA level.
After winning, Sun Yi was in a good mood. He looked at Curry lying on the floor, smiled and said something.
"Stephen, your physical fitness is not good enough. You have to work harder to improve it."
"Sun, do you think that everyone is as strong as you and can't lose strength no matter how hard you train?" Curry said enviously.
Sun Yi came to Curry's side, sat on the floor, and continued chatting.
"The opponent in the next game is a bit strong. It is the second seed in the Southern Conference. It should be able to put a little pressure on us."
"I hope so. If we don't put pressure on us, some people in the team will have their tails raised to the sky. This is not a good sign." Curry said worriedly.
"Well, this kind of thing should be resolved as soon as possible. If we delay it later, it will be more detrimental to the team." Sun Yi suggested.
"Sun, the coach has already thought of a way, you don't have to worry."
"That's good."
After resting, Sun Yi got up and continued training.
…
Oakland, Oracle Arena.
Warriors chief scout Larry Harris took a stack of scouting reports and knocked on the door of the head coach's office excitedly.
"The door is unlocked, come in!" A strong voice came from the office.
Harris pushed open the door, came to Old Nelson, and said, "Sir, as you requested, I went to Davidson College and brought back a detailed report about that player."
"Put it on the desk. I'll look at it later." Old Nelson replied.
Harris put the scouting report on the table and did not leave.
"Larry, is there anything else?" Nelson asked.
"Sir, I think you should take a look at another scouting report. This is a surprise I found when I went to Davidson College. It's worth a look." Harris couldn't wait to share his findings.
Nelson was stunned. He was very curious about why Harris attached so much importance to this scouting report.
Have you discovered a super newcomer?
Probably not!
If a super rookie emerges from nowhere, the news will spread widely in the league, and there is no way he will not know about it.
So Nelson stopped guessing, picked up the scouting report recommended by Harris, and started browsing.
"Larry, are you sure you wrote the steals column correctly? Is it really 5.6 times per game?" Nelson frowned and asked in a questioning tone.
"Sir, I did not write wrong. This is a fact. I have the videos of those games here. You can take a look." Harris replied very confidently.
Nelson couldn't wait to take Harris' cell phone and watch the video.
"Larry, you did a very good job. I'll give you a task. Give me a report about this little guy every week." After reading it, Old Nelson confessed.
"Uh...Okay, sir." Harris replied helplessly.
"Harry, do you have anything else to report? If you have nothing to do, go ahead and get busy." Old Nelson issued an eviction order.
Harris shook his head and left the office consciously.
When he came outside, he wanted to slap himself a few times.
I'm so stupid, I'm adding more work to myself!
At the same time, the news of Sun Yi's success in the NCAA arena spread across the ocean to China on the other side of the ocean.
Domestic sports media were shocked when they heard the news.
They didn't expect that a hidden gem would appear in the NCAA.
Moreover, Sun Yi's performance was so amazing that he was basically the first Chinese player to produce such outstanding statistics in the NCAA Division I league.
It is hard to believe that such a report will be popular if it is said that he may not be able to enter the NBA in the future.
As a result, reporters were sent to Davidson one after another, hoping to bring back first-hand reports on the rising star.
