Chapter 39 Black March

After such a long period of training, David's offensive ability at the basket has reached the eighty point level, which is enough to beat all inside players of NCAA.

"Since you have offensive ability, why not use it in the game?" Jiang Dongbing asked.

Because the Panthers' strength is much stronger than their opponents, David does not need to show off his offensive firepower on the court, and it is difficult to communicate with David, so Jiang Dongbing has never forced David to attack.

To this day, after 31 games of the regular season, David has not even scored a sports game, and his average of about two points per game comes from free throws.

"I've snatched most of Jackson's rebounding data and don't want to grab the score anymore." David said with a shameful expression.

Jiang Dongbing patted his forehead, and David's brain circuit caused him a headache.

"Child, how can this be said to be a robbery? You are a center and the rebound itself is what you should do." Jiang Dongbing said helplessly.

Having said that, Jiang Dongbing also knew that David was actually right.

When David is unable to play due to his focus on the game, Jackson and others' rebounding data will soar directly, and their rebounding ability is not weak, and they are enough to win most of their opponents.

David's thoughts were very delicate, and perhaps in order to get more points from Jackson and others, he voluntarily gave up the attack.

Although David is special, under Jackson's influence, other players are very friendly to David, which is why David is willing to give up the attack for them.

Jiang Dongbing sighed, "David, why are you so eager to sign up for the draft?"

"I want my mom to live a good life sooner." David gave a pretty simple reason.

In order to take care of David, Robin followed after David transferred to the University of Pittsburgh and found two handymen in Pittsburgh. Life was naturally extremely difficult.

Many players come from single families, most of them depend on each other with their mothers. There are quite a few players like David who run early for their mothers.

Although early runs may lead to a drop in the ranking, as long as you are selected, you can still earn an extremely considerable income.

Mark Blunt, the 54th overall pick in the 1997 draft, who was the senior of Jackson and others, received a salary of 320,000 US dollars in the first year.

About 40% of the population in the United States cannot afford 400 US dollars in cash. It is conceivable what the 320,000 US dollars is.

With David's current situation, he must not think about being too high, but being selected is a foregone conclusion. With a salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars, Robin will undoubtedly be much easier.

Jiang Dongbing nodded, "Since that's the case, show your offensive strength in the next national championship."

"You just heard that Byron, Lamar and Ron are not participating in the draft, so you don't have to worry about dividing their scoring data."

"As for Stephen, what he lacks now is not data, but to prove that he has the potential to become a qualified leader and the cornerstone of the team building."

"How to prove this potential? It is naturally to unite teammates, improve teammates, and lead the team to achieve impressive results."

"If you can show off your offensive firepower in the next national championship, it's definitely a good thing for Stephen."

Jiang Dongbing’s words are not false. Most of the players to choose for teams with the No. 1 pick are not ordinary stars, but to choose a suitable cornerstone for team building.

Some players have good personal abilities, but they are just a cancer, which makes the team's locker room atmosphere messy. Such players are obviously not suitable for being the No. 1 pick.

David nodded thoughtfully.

Jiang Dongbing couldn't help but look forward to it, and didn't know what kind of performance David would perform in the next National Championships.

In the previous regular season, David's performance was amazing enough, but because of insufficient playing time and no scoring, he received far less attention than Jackson and Davis.

...

In late February, eight teams with the best record in the Big East League played the league championship game, which was roughly similar to the NBA playoffs, with eight teams competing for the league championship because the champion will be qualified to directly advance to the national championship.

The Pittsburgh Panthers won the championship again without encountering any resistance.

When the league championship game is over, the annual exciting Black March is coming.

There are 32 sub-districts like the Big East League in the first-tier league. The top names in each division are automatically qualified to participate in the national championship. The Pittsburgh Panthers, as the Big East League champion, are definitely qualified to participate.

There are a total of 68 teams participating in the National Championship. In addition to these 32 championship teams, the remaining 36 places will be decided by the Management Committee.

At this time, top leagues like the Big East League have an advantage, because the league has strong average strength, even if they fail to win the championship, even if they fail to enter the top three, they will have the opportunity to participate in the national championship.

Finally, sixty-eight teams will be selected and divided into four major competition areas, namely the east, west, south, and central and western regions, with seventeen teams in each competition area.

Next, the two weakest teams in each division will first play a game called "First Four" and the winners will continue to compete in the national championships, and the losers will naturally pack up and go home.

After the initial quarterfinals, there are only sixteen teams left in the four major competition areas, which is the semi-finals of the National Championships.

The Pittsburgh Black Panthers were naturally assigned to the Eastern Conference, and because of their complete victory, they naturally got the No. 1 seed.

Fortunately, one of the two home stadiums in the Eastern Conference this year is set up in Pittsburgh, where Jiang Dongbing and others have the home advantage.

"No, no!"

"The Kansas Pine Hawks are the No. 9 seeds, and we may encounter them in the second round!" Jackson was overjoyed after seeing the seed rankings in the Eastern Conference.

According to the competition system, the first round of the competition in each major competition area is the No. 1 seed against the No. 16 seed, the No. 2 seed against the No. 15 seed, and so on.

The Nine-seeded Kansas Pinehawks will play against the Eighth-seeded team.

The winner will advance to the next round, which means that if the Kansas Pinehawks can beat the No. 8 seed, their second round opponent will be the Pittsburgh Panthers!

This undoubtedly surprised the Black Panther generals. Although Jiang Dongbing verbally counterattacked Songying last time and made a bet with Songying, he never slaughtered Songying with his own blood in front of fans across the United States.

"Don't be too happy too early. It's hard to say whether Songying can pass the first round."

"No matter if he passes the first round, if he doesn't pass the first round, they will be embarrassed to go to grandma's house. After the first round, they will be even more painful. They are completely finished in this national championship."

"You're right, Songying is really over this time, and you're in a dilemma!"

"You said that it was specially arranged by the Management Committee. I feel that Songying's strength will not only be able to get the No. 9 seed seat."

The players were talking a lot. Of course, they also thought about meeting the pine eagles in the national championship and hitting each other well, but they also knew whether they could meet the pine eagles was really up to their luck.
