Chapter 22 022: Create a legendary undefeated record? The chosen one is destined to be replaced!
In the history of the NCAA, the debut of high school talents is often very embarrassing.
They came to the college arena wearing genius hats and shouldering the expectations of countless people.
But when I got to college, I realized that everything was different from high school.
What was once an easy shot has now become extremely difficult. It used to be easy to guard against opponents, but now it's difficult to stop them.
Going from high school to the NCAA is like changing your girlfriend from a girl to an aunt. The intensity is completely different.
So from the beginning, Wisconsin fans were mentally prepared for Ryan to overturn in his debut, even though he had led the team to win the Dream Five before.
After all, Meng Wu was just a warm-up match. But against the University of Illinois, it was a tight game.
As a result, Ryan scored 28 points in his debut, slapped two famous NCAA coaches in the face, and at the same time made Cook, the player of the year, unable to play.
Before that, Cook was considered the strongest individual player in the Big Ten.
But after the fight with Ryan, Cook looked like an ordinary player!
In the post-game interview, the most common word everyone said was: "The real deal"!
Devin Harris: "I've said before that Ryan is the real deal. When I trained with him, I knew he was a real star. He directly improved the strength of our team by two levels!"
Penny: "In the past few years of my college career, I had never beaten the University of Illinois. I always felt that it was very difficult to beat them. But now that Ryan has joined, I suddenly feel that I can win against them! Ryan is a genuine super talent!"
Michael Wilkins: "Who's the most talented guy at Wisconsin? It's Ryan. But who's the hardest-working guy at Wisconsin? Look at me? It's Ryan! He's a real superstar. I mean , he will be a superstar even if he goes to the NBA!"
Beau Ryan: "I don't want to talk too much about tactical issues. If you have to ask me why I can massacre the University of Illinois? We have Ryan, they don't, it's that simple. Ryan's strength is real, he is not an exaggeration made by the media. product."
Almost the whole team is praising Ryan in different ways, and this kind of praise doesn't make people feel too much.
Because Ryan's performance really deserves it!
The next day, the news that Ryan slaughtered Illinois and scored 28+11 in his debut naturally occupied the front pages of major newspapers.
Poor Anthony, his debut at Syracuse University was actually very good, with 27 points and 11 rebounds, which was on par with Ryan.
But unfortunately, Ryan's traffic is significantly greater.
When Angua was in high school, he thought he was playing a Jordan script, but now he realizes it was a Pippen play.
Ryan saw that he had already defeated Agua.
However, not all media are praising Ryan.
Ryan's statement after yesterday's game, "I didn't even sweat much when playing in the NCAA," was also criticized by many people.
How can a Chinese player openly despise the campus basketball system that our country is proud of?
In our country, a big lighthouse, a shooting incident occurred, which is also a symbol of freedom. Where is your room for criticism?
As a result, a large number of media also began to condemn:
"Pride will corrupt him."
"It's just a game. The NCAA season is still long. Ryan, don't talk too much."
"Honestly, I can't wait to see Ryan's face after he's been dealt with."
Then what? Then Ryan led the team to play a wave.
11 consecutive wins!
In the first 11 games of the new NCAA season, the University of Wisconsin is undefeated!
What is the concept of 11 consecutive wins? The Big Ten Conference in which Ryan belongs has only 16 regular season games!
In other words, Ryan is almost about to have a winning season!
Those media that criticized Ryan could only turn to criticize local players:
"It is recommended that the first-level league join the promotion and relegation system, otherwise our league will die!"
"I propose that the NCAA league must limit the use of foreign players. Foreign players are too strong and our own players have no room to grow."
"The NCAA is just amusing itself now!"
Ryan was speechless. Why did it feel like the NCAA was turned into the CBA?
In addition to Mi Li's family, Ryan has also become popular in China.
Because Yao Ming entered the NBA as the number one pick, the popularity of basketball and the NBA is now unprecedentedly high in China.
Ryan has naturally attracted much attention, although current Chinese fans generally don't understand what the NCAA is.
But they know that Ryan has defeated the Dream Team 5 and is very likely to be selected with a high pick in the 2003 draft.
Therefore, after creating an 11-game winning streak, "Sports Weekly" also left the front page to Ryan for extensive coverage.
The title is 12 bold and bold words: "Far ahead! Far ahead! Far ahead!"
The far lead mentioned here refers to the draft pick.
In ESPN's latest draft pick prediction, Ryan ranked first for the first time!
Although the draft predictions of major media are only a reference and do not represent the final draft results.
After all, the difference between the predicted results and the actual ranking happens every year.
But ESPN's prediction still makes domestic fans excited.
The No. 1 pick in 2002 was already Yao Ming, and the No. 1 pick in 2003 will be Ryan. For two consecutive years, the No. 1 pick in the NBA was Chinese. What kind of fairy tale is this?
The next thing that is more magical and exciting than this may not have to wait until Lisa announces her participation in the Crazy Horse Show in 2023.
Ryan himself also thinks it is magical. Who would have thought that in this history, he could actually beat Ajan in terms of draft predictions
Although Ajan's performance in his senior year was exactly the same as in history, he still defeated all his opponents.
But Ryan also defeated all his opponents in college-level competitions!
The most important thing is that Ryan's way of killing opponents is different from Anthony.
Anthony relies more on his skills, but Ryan can still rely on his body to kill even at the college level.
Of course, Ryan's ability to impress ESPN and make them rank him so high depends on more than just his body.
The NBA also has many "world-class players from the neck down". The most typical example is Stromyer Swift, the second overall pick in 2000.
He also has great physical fitness, but he can't do anything except dunk, and he's not smart!
Such a player will definitely not be ranked first by ESPN.
But Ryan is different. His excellent mid-range catching and shooting, mature defense and ability to read the game are all commendable advantages.
In the opinion of scouts, with Ryan's basketball IQ and catching and shooting touch, it is not a big problem to develop skills. Coupled with such a powerful body, shouldn't this be ranked first in the draft rankings?
Major sneaker manufacturers are also raising prices crazily, and there are rumors that Nike is even designing Ryan's signature shoes in advance!
There is a kind of courage that "no matter how much you pay, I will pay more than you. Anyway, I will definitely win Ryan."
In addition, various NBA teams have also begun to mess around for Ryan.
Teams such as the Cavaliers, Nuggets, Raptors, Clippers and Grizzlies all know that the 2003 draft may be a key node in changing their team history!
The then Grizzlies general manager Jerry West had high hopes for this year's draft.
Because of a bad debt that year, if the Grizzlies cannot get the No. 1 pick this year, the pick will go to the Pistons.
And if he can get the No. 1 pick, he will take Ryan without hesitation!
He believes that Ryan is very suitable for the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have "White Chocolate" as a person who can feed the ball, and Gasol as a pivot who can hold the ball.
Gasol can pull out to organize and shoot, which is a perfect fit for Ryan who likes to cut the frame.
As long as Ryan joins, he will definitely be able to produce results directly!
Moreover, Ryan's commercial value can raise the Grizzlies' attention to unprecedented heights.
Ryan didn't know it at this time, but he had been targeted by the Logo Man.
He still enjoyed torturing NCAA players and steadily won the last five games of the regular season.
In the end, with a record of winning 16 games in the regular season, the University of Wisconsin won the Big Ten regular season championship for the first time since 1947!
No matter how invincible James and Anthony are, they have both lost this season.
Only Ryan is the only one among the three who still remains undefeated!
In the subsequent Big Ten Conference Championship, Wisconsin won three consecutive rounds and won the cup again.
So far, the University of Wisconsin's record is 19 wins and 0 losses!
Every night, the on-site commentator would lament: "Please replace these poor players quickly, they are being destroyed by a freshman!"
After the regular season and tournament, Ryan averaged 25.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.2 blocks per game.
In addition to assists, Ryan's statistics surround another super freshman Anthony in all aspects.
This performance simply subverted people's perception of freshmen.
And, what's even more terrifying is...
If the University of Wisconsin can finally win the March Madness National Championship, it means that they will win the championship with a historic victory record!
The last time a team could win the NCAA championship with an undefeated record was in 1976.
At that time, the Indiana University Mountaineers had six future NBA players, including Kent Benson, the No. 1 pick in 1977, which allowed them to dominate the NCAA.
But in the 1980s, as the number of teams in the NCAA Division I league increased, competition became greater. Coupled with the further reuse of black players, such a thing as an undefeated season never happened again.
This kind of record, like Lord of the Rings' eight consecutive championships and Zhang Dashuai's 100 points, is considered a product of the times and cannot be replicated again.
But now, the possibility of a complete victory has appeared in front of everyone again.
Moreover, the person leading this winning team is still a freshman!
Wesley was convinced. He just gave Ryan an outline of a cool script. Unexpectedly, Ryan could write it so smoothly!
On the night when the University of Wisconsin won the championship, in an ESPN program, the Logo Man who attended as a guest was asked, "Who will be the No. 1 pick in 2003?" He smiled and said:
"The team management who did not draft Ryan in 2003 needs to be sent to the nearest lunatic asylum within 50 miles."
Logo has always been known for his discerning eye, and his high evaluation of Ryan has given him the aura of "quasi-number one pick"!
Cleveland fans are dissatisfied, old Logo, where did you put my Ajan? ?
A large number of Grameen media began to complain for Ajan:
"Only four teams from the Big Ten Conference entered the March Madness tournament last season, and the University of Illinois with the best results was only in the top 16. In this kind of garbage league, having a complete winning record is nothing special."
"Logo said this because he hoped to confuse the other party and let others choose Ryan, and then he would secretly miss Ajan."
"The University of Wisconsin will definitely not survive two rounds in the March Madness tournament! What a super genius, and it has to be my Zhanzhan!"
In response to this, Ryan responded very cleverly:
"What? Do Cleveland fans also feel that the level of high school competition is too low and are starting to pay attention to the NCAA? Yes, what can be seen in the high school competition. Let's see you in March Madness."
This wave of Cleveland media shot Ajan in the foot.
Although the fight was very beautiful, Ryan still felt a little disgusting when he saw the rhythm brought by the Katsumura media.
Because they take the lead, many media will naturally follow them and make noises.
But fortunately, in March Madness, Ryan has the opportunity to end all controversies!
After all, this may be the most high-profile basketball event in North America!
Even the NBA has to make way for March Madness, let alone the high school league, whose influence is not at the same level.
Six games, undefeated record, championship in freshman year
If Ryan can realize all of these, then no matter how much the village media clamors, the Chosen One will have to be replaced!
As we all know, Ajan signed a 90 million contract with Nike before he even entered the league.
And Ryan, after a series of performances in college, has a good chance of becoming a rookie with a higher commercial value than Ajan!
When the time comes, we won’t be able to watch the Crazy Horse show on a monthly basis? Lafite or something like that, just step on the box and drink it!
While Ryan is looking forward to his future, someone is worried about his future.
Roy Williams is very worried about his future.
This great onmyoji didn't expect Ryan to lead the University of Wisconsin to such an outstanding record. His face has been smashed by Ryan this season.
He said that Ryan did not score more than 10 points in his debut, but Ryan scored 28 points.
He said it was impossible for Ryan to lead the team to victory. As a result, Wisconsin won two championships and is still undefeated.
He also said he wouldn't be able to play on a bigger stage in March Madness without Ryan, and now.
Judging from previous experience, this one will also be slapped in the face, right?
Don't worry, when Wisconsin does better than Kansas in March Madness, it will be really embarrassing!
This is actually not the most embarrassing thing. The most embarrassing thing is that you said that the two teams will not meet directly in March Madness, right?
Thinking of this, Roy Williams shook his head.
No, it's impossible.
God will definitely not be so cruel to me.
Being sent away in person by the person you looked down upon at the beginning?
How could this kind of fairy tale happen to me?
Today’s update is here! One chapter of a conscientious old man has become two chapters when others have publicly asked for it. I beg for support! Thank you dads!
