Chapter 42
With 38 points and 8 assists, Tianyang's performance in the first game ranked first among all players in the United States who participated in the game that day.

If you don’t watch the game and only look at the opponent’s performance, you will feel that Tianyang’s data is the result of pecking at each other. After all, the performances of Dejounte-Mory and Marquez-Chris are also very scary. A 20 10 assists, 22 points and 11 rebounds.

But anyone who has watched the game knows that out of Tianyang's 38 points, 20 points were obtained bit by bit, and only 18 points were obtained by duels.

ESPN first published an article, rarely using "We were wrong", to apologize for all the experts predicting the promotion of the University of Washington, and wish the Stanford Sequoia and Tianyang good luck in the next game.

TNT also commented on the official Twitter, saying that O'Neill, Barkley, and Kenny almost forgot to return to the live broadcast room after seeing Tianyang's performance during the break of the live broadcast.

All three were puzzled. They had heard of Simmons, Ingram, and Jaylen Brown, but they had never heard the name Tianyang.

However, all three of them said that it doesn't matter, because Tianyang has become famous all over the United States after this game.When they heard that Tianyang had only played 6 professional-level matches, all three hoped that Tianyang would believe in himself and not lose his indomitable momentum because of setbacks in the following games.

NBATV’s official push is to sort out the data after Tianyang joined the Sequoia team, starting from 25 points and 12 assists against Arizona State University, to 38 points and 8 assists against Washington University, a total of 6 games, Tianyang averaged Can get a super performance of 29.5 points and 9.6 assists.

The NBATV official tweet stated that Tianyang's Stanford Sequoia team is worthy of the NCAA selection committee to award a place for March Madness.

Various media scrambled to join the ranks of praising Tianyang, reporting one after another, the video of Tianyang scoring 7 three-pointers in a row on YouTube became the most popular video of the time period, but in the end, it was a tweet from WOJ that blew up the audience.

"If the Lakers get the top three picks, even if it is the No. 3 pick, they will choose Tianyang without hesitation. The news comes from the Buss family team executive meeting, and Jim Buss personally agreed."

Although this is in early March, the Lakers' regular season record is almost locked to be the second-worst in the league. They have a 3% chance of winning the top three picks, of which the chance of winning the No. 55.8 lottery is 19.9%.

However, the Lakers also have a 44.2% chance of falling out of the top three picks. If that happens, the first-round pick will belong to the 76ers.

Although Aaron has helped Tianyang attract many fans on major Chinese websites before, but WOJ's revelations drove Chinese fans into a frenzy. At that moment, Kemi, Jamie, Kumi, Dengmi, Weimi, Paomi, No matter what is secret, no matter what is dark, we will unite our hearts and cheer for Tianyang together.

If the Lakers really win the No. [-] lottery and choose Tianyang, it's unimaginable.

There are many good news from all walks of life, but some fans smell a different taste from the good news.

Both ESPN and TNT used the phrase "this is the best performance" to describe Tianyang, and they all implied that Stanford University would lose in the next round.

The most obvious is NBATV, which directly stated that the Sequoia needs a special invite to enter March Madness.

It's not based on the team's record, let alone being automatically selected as the division champion of the Pac-[-] Conference.

With such a discovery, the fanatical fans gradually calmed down and began to carefully analyze the Sequoia team's championship journey.

The fans suddenly discovered that the Sequoia's next opponent was the University of Oregon Ducks.

In the past three years, the Ducks have all entered the NCAA March Madness, the highest ranking in the Sweet 16, and twice defeated veteran teams like Oklahoma City.The three times they lost the game were also lost to the champion or runner-up of the year, and they all lost by small scores, and the difference in strength was not too great.

Its head coach, Dana Altman, has achieved a record of 209 wins and 86 losses since coaching the team. He has led the team to win the Pac-[-] regular season championship and championship championship many times. It can be said that he has a long coaching time and rich experience.

This season, they have Tyrone Brooks, Ewing Cook, and Jordan Bell. All of them have performed well, especially Jordan Bell, who is 206cm tall, but often steals the enemy. Center, and then a crazy operation of a one-stop European step layup.

From historical record, to coaching level, to player level, the University of Oregon Ducks can be said to completely crush the Stan University Sequoia team.

Therefore, it is no wonder that ESPN wished Tianyang good luck, and the TNT trio hoped that Tianyang would not be hit.

When fans who like Tianyang discovered this fact, they all comforted themselves and said that it didn't matter. They also cited many cases of famous players who had never played in the NCAA, and emphasized that the NBA selected high picks and didn't pay much attention to the NCAA record, otherwise the annual MOP would not be the same. Automatically elected champion?

Fans who like Tianyang feel that if you lose, you lose, it's no big deal.

But not everyone thought Tianyang and Sequoia were easy to deal with.

In Las Vegas, inside the Bellagio Hotel, the coaching staff of the University of Oregon is busy.

"Coach, can't you? In the third quarter, you started to study Li Tianyang, but in my opinion, he was able to score 38 points thanks to the University of Washington. Tomorrow's game, I promise to lock him in! "

The speaker was Tyler Dorsey, the starting shooting guard for the University of Oregon Ducks, and he was talking to Ducks coach Dana Altman.

"Don't underestimate the enemy. The skills he showed in this game are very mature. Even if he is put on the NBA court immediately, he can score a few points."

"I can also score a few points, nothing, open shots, who wouldn't?"

Altman did not answer, but shouted at the assistant next to him: "Where is the video of the first 5 games I want? I know Romar, he never jokes, if he said Tianyang couldn't defend, it must be true It's hard to guard against."

"Come on, here is not only the game video of him after he joined the Sequoia team, but I also found the video of him participating in the Northern California Community Basketball Tournament from YouTube. I heard that is where he was discovered by Johnny."

"Okay, let's edit all his scoring, assists, rebounding, and defensive highlights, and play them clearly at three speeds of 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25. Also check his social network and summarize. He is What kind of character is he?"

Taylor Dorsey on the side looked dumbfounded. He had never seen Coach Altman treat a person so carefully, as if he would lose to the Sequoia team where Tianyang was in if he was not careful.

The attitudes of ESPN and other media with such attitudes are also too different.

SkyOcean was not clear about the attitudes of all walks of life. When we got back to the hotel, it was only 4 pm.

There is still a long time before going to bed at night, Tianyang feels that it cannot be wasted.

The teammates all gathered in Shelfield's room to watch a movie, Tianyang walked in and asked:

"Are any of you going to train? I'm not familiar with Las Vegas. If anyone goes, bring me one."

"You are already so good, why do you still train?"

"I don't use the fadeaway jumper well, I want to improve it."
