Basketball: Starting from the Rodman template

Chapter 47 The Last Battle Before Christmas

12 month 20 day.

St. Mary's final game before the Christmas break and the last game of the "Divisional Prelims".

After this game, St. Mary's High School ushered in a small winter break.

When the small winter vacation is over, it will be the "regional competition".

Jieshi has already confirmed that he will be a wild card team, and St. Mary High School, which enters the higher-level Ohio Division I high school league, will face more intense competition.

Therefore, even though the winning or losing of the last few games has no effect, Drew still strictly requires the team to switch offense and defense, and use these few games to adjust the state.

As the first school team in the history of the Ohio High School League to "skip" in the middle of the season, Drew doesn't want to go to the more competitive first-level league and let people play as "sandbags"!

At that time, it will no longer be a legend, but a joke.

With full firepower, Saint Mary easily beat the opponent by 55 points in this game.

勒布朗-詹姆斯砍下了豪华的22分7篮板9助攻2抢断2盖帽。

But the player who shines the most tonight is definitely Woody.

He once again surpassed LeBron James in scoring. With a high shooting rate of 16 of 12 shots and a high free throw rate of 4 of 3 free throws, he scored 27 points, 20 rebounds, and 2 assists.

"Double 20"!
This is the first time Woody has achieved such dazzling data since the new season.

Drew found that Woody seemed stronger than at the beginning of the season.

This is really not Drew's illusion.

Because from early November to late December, the first stage of the schedule has come to an end, Woody is more adapted to this league.

Just like the first few games of Yao Ming's NBA career, the statistics were very miserable, but after adapting, he gradually played good statistics, and from time to time he could contribute statistics that can only be played by the league's top insiders.

Woody is now gradually revealing his dominance over this alliance.

More importantly, Woody's rebounding ability has been raised to 70 points!
In the NBA, this is already the ability to grab rebounds only after rotating the bench. In the second-level high school league, it is really no different from "beating the son".

In addition, his scoring ability at the basket has also increased to 53 points. Coupled with his NBA-level physical fitness, as long as he is close to the basket, he can easily bomb the basket.

The inside height of most high school basketball teams is not 1 meters.
Also, how can there be so many "tall men"!

The average height of American men is only 1 meters...

Absolute strength, coupled with the weakness of the opponent, Woody is naturally more and more powerful!

Looking at the reporters who were now subconsciously running towards Woody, LeBron James's expression showed a trace of uncontrollable gloom, but soon, he adjusted his facial expression to make himself look very happy for Woody's performance.

So far, all 18 games in the first stage of the new season have come to an end. Under the leadership of Woody and LeBron, St. Mary’s High School has won 18 consecutive victories and averaged [-] to [-] points per game.

勒布朗-詹姆斯18场比赛，场均27.5分7.5篮板7.5助攻1.5抢断1盖帽。除了篮板外，他其他几项数据依旧领跑着整个队伍。

only……

Woody's per-game numbers are even better.

He averaged 18 points, 26 rebounds and 17 assists in these 3 games!

The shooting percentage was close to 70% at one point!

If in the first 8 games of the season, LeBron James still has some advantages over Woody, then now, it's really hard to say, which side has the more advantage!

After all, he averaged 10 rebounds less than Woody, but only 1.5 points and 3.5 assists ahead.

"Double stars shining" is not just an adjective now, Woody can really be evenly matched with him in terms of statistics!
But this is also the case. The head coaches of other high school teams in the league are even more upset. Many coaches who do not want to disclose their names bluntly said, "With the configuration of St. Mary's High School, is it different to lead a dog on the bench to win?"

Has a half-dime relationship with him, Drew?
Facing these doubts, Drew smiled slightly:
Jealousy, these people are jealous!

He can understand it, let alone others, even he himself can't believe it, this is actually a lineup he can coach.

You know, in addition to "Double Stars Shining", St. Mary's High School also has a freshman Stephen Curry who can average 12.5 points and 3.5 assists per game. At the age of 14, he can now contribute 2.5 three-pointers per game. If he grows up, he may become another "offensive pillar"!
Even if Woody and LeBron leave next summer, Drew won't be blindsided.

The strongest person is already in the formation!

There is also a special audience in today's auditorium - Woody Hayes!

This is the head coach of Ohio State University.

The Buckeyes belong to the Big Ten and are members of the NCAA Division I. They once won the NCAA championship in 1960, and then declined more and more, especially in the past decade.

The most recent time was 3 years ago, when they had Michael Reid, the "sharp shooter" who is gradually gaining a foothold in the Bucks.What's interesting is that Reid was known for his breakthroughs in college, but his shooting ability was criticized.

However, this is not a single case. There are many players like Michael Reid who have transformed in the NBA.

The reason is nothing more than the physical fitness that can walk sideways in the NCAA, but it will not be useful in the NBA. At this time, players need to light up their "skill trees", otherwise they will not be able to gain a foothold in the league at all.

Therefore, there is nothing to discuss whether to play in the NBA is technically important or physical fitness is more important.If you have physical fitness, you can at least enter this league. If you don't have physical fitness, you don't even have a "stepping stone".

Remember, any so-called NBA player with poor physical fitness can beat a lot of people outside the NBA, almost without exception.Even a guy like Steve Nash who looks mediocre in physical fitness.

After Michael Reid, Ohio State University has not had any good supplements. Seeing that three years have passed, the entire Ohio State University basketball team desperately needs a "hero" to save the team.

Woody Hayes initially targeted LeBron James.

But as Gloria James was reported for accepting bribes, although LeBron James has not announced that he will skip the NCAA and enter the NBA, his NCAA path has actually been ruined.

No player can fight against the rules set by a "behemoth" like the NCAA.

Even LeBron, the "phenomenal newcomer" who has been so popular in recent years.

When he heard that there was another "junior student" from China with the same name as himself, Woody Hayes had always paid attention to it. After watching Woody's games, he was even more sure that Woody was the person he wanted to find.

Ever since, he was full of sincerity, full scholarship promise, and even a part-time job opportunity in the library provided by the school——he heard that Woody's family was not very good.Came to St. Mary's College, ready to have a good talk with Woody.

As for this match, it was the last consideration before the formal interview with Woody.

The result is……

Woody Hayes is already working out next year's team tactics for Woody.

Is it to give him all the balls to handle!

Or should I leave it all to him to handle it?
However, he was preparing to smile, and walked towards Woody, and a scout walked out quickly, took out an envelope, and handed it to Woody.

This was an ordinary yellow leather envelope, but Woody Hayes' pupils shrank instinctively because he thought of a certain figure.

Legend has it that everyone who is favored by him will receive a letter from him!

The vast majority of high school students will also feel honored and proud to receive his handwritten letter...

The legendary coach of the Duke Blue Devils, Old K, also took a fancy to Woody?
