Vol 2 Chapter 54: Regional Championship

　　 According to NCAA regulations and the practice of the Pacific 12th School League, the top eight teams in the regular season will start on March 10 and use three days to determine the championship of the competition.
　　 This is the regional championship. As a preview of March Madness, its rules are similar to those of the National Championship. In the order of first to eighth, second to seventh, catch and fight. The whole schedule adopts a single-game elimination system, and the winner advances to the next round, knowing to decide the division champion.
　　 This champion is directly qualified for the national championship, so the top eight teams are very concerned. No team does not want to fight for it. After all, if you miss this opportunity, you have to wait for others to choose.
　　 If it is a strong team, because the team's record and state are very good, it will be "invited" as soon as the regular season is over, and it can also participate in the national championship.
　　 If it is a team that has a decent record but is on the edge, it can only be resigned.
　　 A team like this has long been placed in the top sixty-four by the selection committee. Even if you can't pass a round of the regional championship, you will still get the "invited places".
　　 However, the goal is not just to enter the national championship. Therefore, before the "March Madness" starts, they can take advantage of the regional tournament to adapt in advance. By the way, get a championship.
　　 According to the schedule, the number one opponent in the regular season is USC. They were on par in the final game and lost to the University of Oregon. The ranking dropped to eighth.
　　 This is interesting! In this season, but double kills each other. I thought I would see you next year, but I didn't expect to meet again so soon.
　　 However, the opportunity to step on the enemy's position is right in front of you! Ever since, the whole is very excited.
　　The game was played at their home court. Because of their better record, they gained home court advantage.
　　 On the day of March 10, the campus was once again full of deep malice towards USC. At Pali Stadium, the atmosphere is far more intense than in other games.
　　 I can see that everyone is more excited. Especially Alex, he was taken off by Alford just like An Luo last game. This game can finally return to a normal game. At this moment, he is practicing layup with Holiday and Prince.
　　 An Luo was practicing three-pointers by himself. He was actually quite excited. Alford would not let him play during the game. He couldn't question anything, but he was still unhappy. He wants to do his best to deal with every game.
　　 Soon, the game began.
　　 Alex easily put the basketball into Holiday's hands, and as the latter accelerates, they begin their march towards "March Madness".
　　 This game showed his strong dominance. Both offense and defense broke out USC. This is a real crushing battle, from the beginning to the end there was no hope of victory for the other party.
　　 Therefore, the playing time of these main players has also increased a lot. Anluo has averaged 22.5 minutes per game so far, almost half of a game.
　　 If it is an average main player, so much playing time would be appropriate. But for the head star of a team, that's a bit less. However, the intensity of the previous game was not too strong. Every time he can get enough advantage in a short period of time, An Luo naturally plays relatively easily.
　　 But it is different now. An Luo can obviously feel that when USC encounters with the previous two times, both offense and defense have improved a lot.
　　 However, the file is also raised. Alford increased the playing time of the main players in order to maintain the rhythm of the attack and the intensity of the defense.
　　Think about it, at the national championships, the intensity of the competition will definitely be even greater.
　　 Finally, at his home court, he eliminated USC and entered the semi-finals of the Pacific 12 Schools League.
　　 For USC, the failure of this game basically means the failure of this season this year. They will most likely not be invited to participate in the national championship. Even the Pacific 12 Schools League enters "March Madness" every year more teams than other leagues.
　　 An Luo played 31 minutes in this game. This is not the longest game he has played, but it is definitely the most tiring game. Even in the face of a tougher defense, his efficiency is still very high.
　　 He has the highest score among all players on both sides of the game. 13 of 22, 36 points! Among them, he made 7 of 12 three-pointers, 6 of 10 from mid-range, and 3 of 5 shots.
　　 The competitive state is really great! Moreover, he maintained this state until the next day of the game.
　　The opponent in the semi-finals is the big brother Berkeley.
　　 March 11th, Pali Stadium.
　　 Like last time at Berkeley, the atmosphere in the arena is very warm ~EbookFREE.me~ but there is no rivalry. Like the Berkeley fans, even if the game is anxious, they are still friendly.
　　 However, during the game, the generals were not softened because of the relationship between the two sides.
　　 This game also attracted a lot of scouts, and this time, more scouts came than last time. Not only did they come to see Anluo and Jaylen Brown, people such as Holiday, Alex, etc. also came into the eyes of these people. In fact, only a few are interested in Anlow and Jaylen Brown. After all, the talents and abilities shown by these two guys can't be randomly selected. Without a top pick, I can't even think about it. It would be better to go back and choose a few potential training.
　　 In this game, Jaylen Brown finally played a performance that matched his talent. He reduced his shots from the outside and relied on his excellent body and athletic ability to frequently get into the inside, causing fouls by Tony Parker and Jock Goloman, allowing himself to stand on the free throw line and score easily.
　　 In this campaign, Jaylen Brown played 35 minutes, 1 of 4 from beyond the three-point line, 6 of 11 from the mid-range, 8 of 12 from the free throw line, 23 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Compared to Anluo's 26 points, 4 assists and 2 steals, it is not inferior.
　　 However, his overall strength is still much stronger. Therefore, Berkeley can only lose to Berkeley and stop at the top four of the Pacific 12 Schools League.
　　 But Berkeley is not at all frustrated, especially Jaylen Brown’s outstanding performance, which gives them hope. As for the champions of the regional championships, they have been invited to participate in the national championships anyway, so let's get them.
