Chapter 20 Crazy female fans! The attention of NBA teams!
The sudden rise in fame has also changed Chen Yan's life.
Walking on campus, more and more people came to Chen Yan for autographs and photos, and some of them were even teachers from the University of Texas.
During the photo session, Chen Yan was teased from time to time, but luckily they were all girls, so Chen Yan just endured it silently.
If it was a boy, he would probably call the police on the spot...
Some fanatical female fans are no longer satisfied with handing notes to Chen Yan, and their way of expressing love has upgraded to handing private items such as underwear and nipple pasties.
To be honest, it's an exaggeration.
Although Chen Yan knows that this is an open country, for him, this openness is a bit too much...
For a few moments, Chen Yan even felt like he had entered the animal world.
Ever since he played crazy performances one after another in March Madness, everything around him has become crazy!
Some of these girls have taken a fancy to Chen Yan, a potential stock, and want to rise to the top, while some are just pursuing excitement.
Chen Yan remained focused in the face of temptation. The next game was four days later. He didn't want to lose the game because of weak feet.
Soon, all the Elite Eight matchups were released.
The opponent of the University of Texas is the famous basketball school Georgetown University!
The game will be held at the FedEx Center, home of the Memphis Grizzlies.
Georgetown University has produced many NBA stars, the most famous of which are 'Gorilla' Ewing, 'Kidney Fighter' Mourning and the little number one pick 'Answer' Iverson who never admits defeat.
Compared with Georgetown, the University of Texas's background is slightly shabby, and there are basically no outstanding stars.
However, the basketball game is about strength rather than heritage and celebrity. After consecutive victories and promotions, everyone at the University of Texas is full of confidence in this game.
Although they were very confident about winning, Texas did not underestimate its opponent. It not only delayed its daily training time, but also held video conferences for several days in a row to study the upcoming opponent in an all-round way.
The NCAA tournament adopts a death mode, and no mistakes or mistakes are allowed.
What Texas needs to do is to despise its opponents strategically and pay attention to them tactically.
This is definitely a good year for Georgetown.
On March 3, 2007, Georgetown University won its first regular season championship since 1989!
On March 10, Georgetown University defeated the University of Pittsburgh Panthers to win the 2007 Big East Championship. The last time it won the championship was in 1989.
Jeff Green was also awarded the Big East Player of the Year and Tournament Most Outstanding Player awards for his good performance.
Jeff Green is a versatile player with comprehensive offensive methods, but at the same time he is also limited by his own comprehensiveness.
From the perspective of a small forward, he has excellent post-up ability, strong support ability, and sufficient height, but lacks speed and does not have a very stable scoring method.
From the perspective of a power forward, he is flexible, agile and has comprehensive skills, but his rebounding and interior defense are a bit poor.
But it is undeniable that he is an excellent team member.
This season he averaged a team-high 14.3 points per game, as well as 6.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists.
His highlight moment of the NCAA was in the last round of the Sweet 16, when he scored the winning goal at the last moment of the game, leading the Georgetown team to defeat the Vanderbilt University Skippers and advance to the Elite 8!
In addition to Jeff Green, there is another player worth noting in Georgetown, and that is Hibbert, a black man who is 218cm tall.
Roy Hibbert averaged 26.3 minutes per game this season, contributing 13.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.2 blocks.
While steadily providing output firepower, he is also an interior defensive gate.
This combination of one inside and one outside will be the biggest obstacle to the University of Texas' advancement.

Memphis, FedEx Central Office.
Grizzlies general manager Jerry West and owner Michael Heisley are chatting.
But the content of their chat was not about the Grizzlies, but the Elite Eight of March Madness that will be held in the Grizzlies!
The Grizzlies are rotten to the core this year. After Pau Gasol was injured, the team's record dropped to the bottom of the league like a plane crash.
So instead of discussing how the team will perform poorly in the next games, it would be more meaningful to consider which rookie they will use this year's lottery pick to select.
"Jerry, are you saying that you are very interested in the Texas shooting guard?" owner Michael Heisley asked in surprise.
Jerry West smiled: "That kid is great, isn't he?"
"I have read some reports about him. His 62 points in a single game is indeed crazy, but I think his body is a little too thin? In addition, he seems to rarely shoot three-pointers." Michael Heisley revealed between the lines.
He is not optimistic about Chen Yan.
Seeing that Jerry West did not answer, owner Michael Heisley continued: "In comparison, I think Jeff Green is a better choice. He is more comprehensive. If we get a better pick,
We can even win Oden or Durant."
Jerry West thought for a moment:
"Michael, do you know how diamond players identify authenticity? Often fake diamonds are perfect, and those with flaws are real diamonds."
He didn't answer the boss directly, but Michael Haisley immediately understood what West meant.
Chen Yan is what Jerry West calls a real diamond!
Jerry West has always had a long-term vision in selecting players, otherwise he wouldn't have traded All-Star center Divac for Kobe Bryant, the high school kid.
West saw some unique qualities in Chen Yan, which convinced West that he would definitely achieve something in the future, even if Chen Yan doesn't look so perfect now.

Chicago, United Center offices.
"Listen! We have to get that guy, he will be the hope of the Bulls' revival!" Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf said in a voice that was almost a roar.
After watching Chen Yan's performance in the Sweet 16, Jerry Reinsdorf was convinced that he was the player the Bulls were looking for!
Head coach Scott Skiles retorted: "Boss, I think what our lineup needs most right now is a big man."
"We said the same thing when we drafted Jordan."
Jerry Reinsdorf rendered Scales speechless with just one sentence.
...
...
This is also a true portrayal of the current league. Every team has varying degrees of interest in Chen Yan, and only one team seems out of place.
Inside the Bobcat office.
"Boss, did you watch his performance? It's incredible. He is the player we want!" General Manager Rod Higgins said with excitement.
Jordan said slightly calmly: "I watched the highlights and he played pretty well, but I already have my favorite candidate. I will choose between Brandon White and Asilao this year."
Rod Higgins: "..."
He no longer wants to hang out with Jordan anymore.
This guy's vision is simply poisonous, and he always believes that some of the weird players he chooses will be able to perform well.
It seems that the lessons learned by Kwame Brown and Adam Morris haven't impressed him long enough.
Seeing Jordan's confident expression, Rod Higgins got angry.
If Jordan wasn't his boss, Rod Higgins would have slapped him twice by now.
