NBA: Start with a Kareem Abdul-Jabbar template card

Chapter 26 Elite 8

After a fierce game, Chen Xiao was about to go back to the locker room to experience the bathing conditions of the Olympic venues, but he walked quickly not far away, and Lin Sai, who was carrying a cameraman behind him, made Chen Xiao stop.

After all, as the best player in the field, it is not appropriate not to accept interviews.

"First of all, congratulations to Duke University for defeating the Indiana University Mountaineers and successfully advancing to the Elite 8 in March Madness." After successfully "blocking" Chen Xiao, Lindsay Flatley, with eyes shining brightly, made an opening speech to the camera.

"Leading the Duke Blue Devils to the top 12 of the March Madness Elite for the 8th time in history, Chen, how do you feel now?" Lindsay, with bright eyes and kind eyes, raised his head and asked Chen Xiao.

"Thank you, but I have to say, the coach is our leader, we just follow him, listen to him, and the victory will come naturally. The Elite 8 is the first time for me. For him, it is just a normal experience.

Of course, there are my teammates, Seth feels hot tonight, and Austin behaves like a general, as well as Mason and Miles, they all made contributions.I just follow everyone to help the team win. "

When it was time to be humble, Chen Xiao resolutely chose to be humble. As a center forward, standing in the center of the court, he could better understand the meaning of teamwork.Besides, no matter how humble you are, if you put your stuff there, others will naturally blow it up for you.

"You are too humble, Chen, just like Yao. Are you Chinese all so humble? 29 points, 12 rebounds, 5 blocks, big double-double and 5 blocks!" No, Lindsay was blown away.

She understands the composition of the audience who are watching the post-match interview before the live broadcast signal after the game.

After Chen Xiao accepted his praise, Lindsay changed the subject: "I think not only me, but also all the audience in front of the screen want to know what you said to Curry after that action at Watford."

Lindsay also understands what the audience wants to know.

When it was time to be direct, Chen Xiao decisively chose to be direct.

"What action? An action that is too late to defend? Ha, I know what you mean, I just told Seth, maybe you should play it and let someone see what a three-pointer is.

As for the action itself, I still don't understand what Watford is thinking. He just ran the tactic, faced a perimeter player who changed his position and made a three-pointer.

It wasn't McGrady's three-pointer against Duncan, nor was it Kobe's 3S goal against Wade at the end of the game. "Chen Xiao just wanted to talk about Kobe's triple hit against the Raptors in the last 95 seconds of the game, but then he remembered that according to the normal historical process, it would be next year, so he changed his words to the goal against Wade, but they all mean the same thing, it doesn't matter.

Lindsay's last question was exactly the same, "The last time we interviewed, it was in the finals of the ACC league. At that time, you were 207 blocks away from David Robinson's record of 41 blocks. After this game, the gap of 23 blocks, what do you think?"

"The further the season goes, the more I feel the greatness of David Robinson. Originally, I only knew David in the NBA period. After you told me about David's feats in the NCAA last time, I learned about his NCAA career. He averaged 5.9 blocks per game in a single season! He really left a mountain for us younger generations." Chen Xiao responded with a wry smile.

……

After the interview, Chen Xiao returned to the locker room, washed up and returned to his seat with the thought of "Is this the Olympic venue?"

When I took out my phone, I saw a text message from Lindsay.

"Maybe we can find another place to do the next round of interviews."

But because the old coach K issued a curfew order after the team entered March Madness, Chen Xiao had to violate the promise he had previously decided to help Lindsay grow with all his money.

"Next time definitely."

After sending the text message, Chen Xiao saw Seth walking over. After the two of them punched each other like "Hello, XXXX", everything was kept silent.If there is wine here, the two of them will be bored.

……

As the last game of the Crazy Three 16-to-8, after the Duke Blue Devils defeated the Indiana Mountains, all the top 8 elites were released.

In the early morning of the next day, while having a buffet breakfast in the hotel where he was staying, he heard people around him discussing the newly released top 8 list. Chen Xiao also took out his mobile phone to check the latest game status, and learn about the performance of potential opponents and players with draft prospects.

The University of Kentucky is in the Eastern District, so let's start from the Eastern District. Chen Xiao opened the summary of the Eastern District's 16-to-8 results, showing:

Eastern District:

University of Kentucky Wildcats (won) University of Wisconsin Badger Staters;
University of Cincinnati Binturists (loss) Gonzaga University Bulldogs;
"Wild Cat Hurts"

肯塔基大学野猫队凭借安东尼·戴维斯的21分11篮板6次封盖2次抢断以及迈克尔·基德·吉尔克里斯特19分5篮板，全场4人上双的强势表现轻取威斯康星大学獾州人队。

As the second seed, Kentucky has several teams with first-round market players such as Davis and McGee. Chen Xiao naturally read the summary of the results carefully.

"It's a bit of a bug. A team has the No. 4 pick, the top three favorites, 2 first-round picks, and [-] second-round picks. It's really abnormal. Kentucky, you picked all the good guys. It's really bad things." Chen Xiao complained silently.

In another 16-to-8 game in the Eastern District, there was only one sentence left in Chen Xiao's eyes:
"A binturong is not a bear"

The dog-cat fight ended with a victory for the Bulldogs.

The only thing that impresses me deeply is the team logo of Gonzaga. This puppy looks very beautiful.

After watching the dog, Chen Xiao continued to look down.

Central and Western District:
University of Missouri Tigers (loss) University of Michigan Wolverines
"The Wolverine Captures the Tiger"

The University of Michigan Wolverines shined in the backcourt. Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway II scored 42 points to help the team successfully capture the Tigers.

Seeing that it was the University of Michigan, Chen Xiao couldn't help but take a second look. Hey, he's a little level. If I didn't look carefully at the Trey Burke in this picture, I thought it was Iverson, only a hair tie.

---

UNC Tar Heels (lost) Kansas Jayhawks
Seeing the North Carolina battle report, Chen Xiao clicked in, very quickly.

"The Eagle Spreads Its Wings"

北卡在最后的3分58秒一分未得，在最后5分43秒仅命中一次罚球，眼睁睁的看着堪萨斯用12-0的高潮拿走了胜利。

泰肖恩·泰勒成了比赛中的全能王子，他全场贡献了22分6个篮板球5次助攻和5次抢断的数据，并且带领着五名首发都拿下了两位数的得分。除了泰勒之外，野兽托马斯·罗宾逊拿下了18分9个篮板球。

Why is North Carolina pulling so hard? It deserves to be turned over in the end. If you fight like this, you will have to lose in the future.

As an old opponent, Chen Xiao was furious.
