Chapter 6 The season begins, UCLA is coming!

Seeing that the situation was stable, Lynn Nance clapped his hands and said, "Okay, boys, the training match will end here."

Lu Feng: "..."

Afterwards, Lynn Nance asked everyone to roll the iron, which is also the norm in this era.

In this era of professional basketball, the most important aspect of training is not shooting, but fitness.

Do you think this is to allow players to strengthen confrontation and adapt to this era of fierce defense?

No, actually the most important purpose is to let the players lose weight.

Even in the NBA, there are a large group of players who cannot control their weight and body fat. Let them lose weight, maintain their athletic ability, and reduce the probability of injury. This is the most important part of the training for coaches.

The only exception is Jeff Brown. Lynn Nance asked his assistant to help him work on his steps at the basket alone.

After a training session, Lynn Nance handed over the task of urging Jeff Brown to lose weight to his roommate Lu Feng.

In addition to normal physical training, Lu Feng also conducted shooting training. His mid-range shooting attributes encountered a bottleneck, and what he needed was to shoot again and again to develop muscle memory.

In addition, Lu Feng also made a special appointment with Eldridge to learn defense from him.

His pick-and-roll ability is very average, relying entirely on speed. He feels that Eldridge's short-step defense is very suitable for him.

After the training, Lu Feng and Lynn Nance went to apply for a sports scholarship together. They encountered no difficulties and the application went smoothly.

The team trained three times a week, lasting 2-3 hours each time. Lynn Nance tried various lineups and finally determined the team's starting lineup.

After Jeff Brown accepted his fate, he began to learn inside steps and attack at the basket, and finally succeeded in becoming a starter.

Brent Merritt also entered the starting lineup, swinging at the 2 and 3 positions with Eldridge.

In the starting lineup, the only person taller than 2 meters is Jeff Brown, who is 2.06 meters tall. Doug Meekins at position 4 is only 1.98 meters tall. Brent Merritt and Eldridge are the same height, 1.0 meters tall.

91.

The starting No. 1 position is undoubtedly Lu Feng, who is 1.83 meters tall.

A standard small ball lineup, but this is not how good Lynn Nance's tactics are, it's just that no one can use them.

Three months passed in a hurry, and Lu Feng's daily life was uneventful.

I attended classes, trained, practiced ball, and even borrowed Aldridge's car to get my driver's license.

The driver's license test in the United States is different from that in China. You use your own car. Of course, Lu Feng had to borrow a car if he didn't have one.

After three months of hard training, Lu Feng’s various attributes have also undergone qualitative changes!

Starting from the end of November, NCAA teams can schedule non-conference games on their own.

The NCAA regular season is divided into conference games and non-conference games.

Non-league games are games that teams agree to play, while league games are games between teams in the same division.

Both conference and non-conference games need to be registered with the NCAA, so they will be counted as official records.

At the beginning of the new season, Lynn Nance handed UCLA a letter to start the non-conference game as usual.

In the NCAA, wealthy and prestigious schools like UCLA, UNLV and Duke will not be short of applications for non-conference games. The games against these wealthy schools are not only broadcast live, but also sell tickets.

He was prepared to be rejected, and planned to continue applying to several other wealthy and powerful teams after being rejected, trying to delay the opening game as much as possible to give the team more time to adjust.

Then, he received the news that UCLA had approved the Huskies’ application!

Lynn Nance: “…”

He forgot that he was now the coach of the Huskies and was used to thinking with the same mindset as the previous year.

For UCLA, what should we do if there is a team that is close to us or a team from the same division comes to our door?

Of course I accept it!

The journey is easy, and a big win in the opening game of the new season can also boost the team's morale, so why not?

Lynn Nance announced the news to everyone during Wednesday's training session.

"Boys, our first game schedule has been released. This year our team will participate in the NCAA opening game!"

Eldridge said excitedly: "Good coach, who is our opponent?"

"Our goal this year is to reach March Madness, so I think we need a strong team competition to test everyone's running-in results and allow you to quickly enter the game state."

Lynn Nan paused and said loudly: "So, our first game will be against UCLA. In addition, I also received a notice that this game will be broadcast live across the United States from now on.

Get ready, Husky warriors!"

Lynn Nance spoke righteously and without any hint of guilt.

But the Huskies players don't think so.

Players know very well how strong UCLA is. Last year, UCLA had five quasi-NBA players, and this year it recruited two national five-star high school students, Tracy Murray and Mitchell Butler.

There are only 25 5-star high school students in the United States every year, and there are only 75 to 100 4-star high school students every year, accounting for a total of 10 of UCLA's 11-man roster!

In the NCAA, this is the difference between a wealthy family and a weak one!

In the original world, only Eldridge of the Huskies could make it to the NBA, and he only successfully made it to the NBA after being undrafted and training hard in overseas leagues for several years. But what about UCLA?

A total of 7 players from UCLA's 1989-90 roster entered the NBA, and none of them went undrafted!

Seeing the silence of a group of people, Eldridge first said: "This will be a good game, isn't it? This is a national broadcast. The Huskies didn't even have a national broadcast last season. Besides..."

Standing up straight, Eldridge said confidently: "Don't forget, we have Jeff and Brent this year, and more importantly, we have a road!"

"From now on, get into game mode!" He stretched out his hand, "Guys, give me your hands!"

The newcomers learn how to put their hands together...

"Wan Tu Sha - Husky!"

[Ding, it has been detected that the host has officially started his B-League (NCAA League) career, and the season mode has started!]

Season mode introduction: Based on the season, after the end of the season, the season rewards will be settled based on the host's personal performance and team performance!

Host: Lu Feng

Current league: NCAA League

League level:B level

Current season: 1989-1990 season

Status: Season in progress (unsettled)

Lu Feng was surprised that the system actually responded!

In the past three months, Lu Feng had been training silently, trying to realize his potential. During these three months, no matter how hard Lu Feng trained, the system did not respond.

He guessed that the system would have the next function after the official game started, but he did not expect that it would be a regular task on a season basis.

Well, at least this way Lu Feng doesn't have to worry about what he will have to do in 35 seconds and 13 minutes in the future, and he doesn't have to rebound for a triple-double. Compared with these things, Lu Feng is more willing to simply think about how to win.

ball.

On October 30, the Huskies stood at the entrance of the tunnel at Herc Edmondson Arena, full of fighting spirit.

Lu Feng looked at a group of UCLA players wearing white and blue jerseys opposite each other, chatting and joking with each other, and took a deep breath.

My first game is about to begin!

Lu Feng's eyes were full of fighting spirit...

Finally... finally on the professional basketball court!

In the arena, the announcer's deep voice came -

"First of all, let's welcome, from Los Angeles, the University of California - UCLA!"

UCLA is officially here!
Chapter completed!
