Chapter 16: 1 all are routines

　　.
After 　　 defeated Brigham Young University and entered the second round, Creighton University’s opponent was also freshly released-Texas A&M University.
　　 Texas A&M University players have mediocre talents, and none of them are selected for the draft prediction rankings. But this does not mean that Texas A&M University is weak. On the contrary, the level of players in each position of Texas A&M is relatively average. They are very resilient and will not easily collapse.
　　 Due to the relatively short interval (only one day away from the first round), Qin Xiong did not immediately use his points to purchase skills and equipment. Because he doesn't know if the Blue Jays can beat Texas Agricultural Machinery, if not, a lot of points will be wasted.
　　 If the last 800 points weren't for an unexpected god-level skill [Capture], he would definitely lose out. 800 points are enough to buy an A-level skill!
　　He was more cautious this time.
　　 If he can pass the Texas A&M University level and enter the Sweet 16 round, then adjust according to his needs; if he can't pass, he plans to ponder over the holidays and prepare for the next season.
　　 But he is not unprepared to face Texas Agricultural Machinery. He used the B-level skill [Strong] captured in the previous game. After spending 80 points to purchase 8 hours of [Advanced Training], he was fully adapted to [Strong] overnight and prepared for the battle against Texas Agricultural Machinery.
　　 On the 23rd, the two sides started a fierce battle at the United Center Arena. The average strength of Texas Agricultural Machinery is stronger than that of Creighton University, but Korver of Creighton University has unique skills, and there is a bug of Qin Xiong. The two sides fought until the last minute, and Korver used a wing three-pointer. The ball kills the game.
　　Clayton University stumbled into the Sweet 16 round.
　　 In this game, Qin Xiong gained 13 points: 10 points for completing special tasks (helping the team advance to the Sweet 16) and 3 points for three three-pointers.
　　 Before the start of the game, he also used [Capture] to lock the players of Texas Agricultural University. However, the game feels bad. He only scored 18 points in 14 shots, not even the minimum requirements. [Capture] The requirement is 30 points higher than the locked player, and he doesn't even get 30 points.
　　 Qin Xiong is not frustrated either. This situation is completely within his expectations. If he can score more than 30+ in each game, his name will already be on the draft rankings predicted by the major media!
　　……
　　 After passing the second round, the good luck of Clayton University is over. They are about to face Xavier University with star power forward David West.
　　 Xavier University is the second seeded team in the Southern Division, but David West is in the NCAA.
　　 During his time at Xavier University, West played a total of 126 games, averaging 16.9 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game. This season, the Xavier Musketeers led by West, the Xavier Musketeers played the best record in team history (26 wins and 6 losses). West himself was selected as the All-American First Team by the Associated Press with a comprehensive performance of 20.1 points, 11.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game, and was named the 2003 National Player of the Year.
　　 Encountering such an opponent, the general mood of Creighton University can be imagined. However, I am satisfied with being able to reach the sweet 16 strong home. This is the best achievement in the history of Creighton University. They are all the creators of history, personally participating and witnessing the birth of new history.
　　 If it ended like this, it wouldn't be a big deal.
　　 That's what Qin Xiong thinks!
　　 As far as the strength of Creighton University is concerned, it is indeed lucky to be able to reach this point. Super basketball school Duke was eliminated in the second round of the game. Compared with Duke, is Clayton University out of luck?
　　 has entered the top 16!
　　 Qin Xiong is going to continue his development at Creighton University. Anyway, he is only a freshman and has enough time to spend time in the university. Korver can't do it. Korver is eager to prove that he is already a senior. As soon as Creighton University is eliminated, he will go to the NBA.
　　 He is more anxious than Qin Xiong.
　　 If West's Xavier University can be beaten, his draft ranking will undoubtedly increase significantly. And starting from the Sweet 16, the player's exposure has increased geometrically, which is what Korver urgently needs.
　　 But the reality is that the strength of Creighton University is not enough to support Korver's ambitions. If Qin Xiong is willing to support Korver desperately, maybe Korver can get closer to his ideal.
　　 But Qin Xiong would not do this. He and Korver are ordinary teammates, and the relationship is normal. If it is a good friend, Michael will say otherwise.
　　 Qin Xiong can only use 654 points at present, originally 734 points, but he used 80 points before, and now there are only so many points left. Moreover, he is carrying a huge debt of 1,500 points, which is impossible to support Korver.
　　 When Korver asked him for support, he agreed. Without using the reserve points, he will do his best to support Korver. If he can beat West's Xavier University, he is also happy.
　　 But everyone on the team except Korver is very satisfied, including coach McDermott. Instead of dreaming unrealistic dreams, it is better to face reality calmly. And he led the team to the Sweet 16 with at least a $100,000 prize.
　　 Unlike players who are free labor, college coaches are paid, although McDermott’s salary is a bit lower. UU reading www.uukanshu. com, but after leading the team to the Sweet 16 round, McDermott can get a large bonus, and can make money after the season, can he not be satisfied?
　　 But after receiving another call, McDermott immediately swept away his previous satisfaction and became very serious.
　　 He convened a meeting with the uniform team members overnight to unify the uniform team's thinking; the next day, he convened all the players for a tactical meeting to inform the disciples that surrenderism is bad.
"Although Xavier University is more famous than us and stronger than us on paper, it is not just luck for us to get here today!" McDermott waved his arms vigorously to make himself look imposing: "We have Kyle There are a large number of outstanding players such as Jack, Hopps, Henry, and Michael. We don’t need others to be bad, and we must not easily admit defeat... If we are able to divide the victory on paper, we will not be where we are today!"
　　 The Blue Birds in the conference room were excited by McDermott’s speech, and Qin Xiong was no exception. Everyone didn't notice the head coach's abnormality, but thought that the head coach didn't want to be sent home by Xavier University so desperately.
Many years later, Qin Xiong knew the truth of the matter-the school board assured McDermott that as long as he can lead the team to the Elite Eight, he will be given a bonus of 500,000. The previous team bonus is not included in the 500,000. .
　　 routine!
　　Everything is a routine!
　　 But Qin Xiong didn't know at this time, he was convinced by the head coach's impassioned words. Although Xavier University is powerful, Creighton University is not without the strength to fight back, and he also has advantages that West does not have.
　　 I really want to do my best, it may not be the one who will kill you!
　　 He was going to do his best, he was desperate!
　　Poor child, so simple!
