Chapter 40 The Battle of the Double Crown
The championship plan was confirmed, and various trainings at Santa Monica High School began. However, compared with the tension and urgency when dealing with St. Mary's High School before, the team's mentality was much more relaxed, and they did not engage in those high-intensity trainings, just regular shooting. + run position.

Su Yang's personal training is still very intensive, and he specially asked Coach David to come forward and decline those reporters who came to interview.

Venice Beach Streetball League performances are rarely seen again. After the main live broadcast in the United States, they became big stars in a short period of time. Every day, there are many crazy fans who want to get in touch with each other. You will encounter LeBron's troubles of moving five times in half a year, and you must wait until the heat passes before you can return to a normal life.

The ex-girlfriend, who is also an overseas student, also sent text messages to ask to meet and try to get back together. Su Yang didn't reply, and he didn't owe anything anyway.

On December 25th, Santa Monica High School continued to compete in the California High School Basketball League One. The opponent was Westchester, which was played before. It is not only the opponent of the California High School Basketball League One, but also the sixth in the TOP[-] level in the United States. Opponents, one game is worth two games, and the two championships will be won together.

Small talk before the game.

Tommy told Su Yang: "The Fairfax High School we played against in the first game of the new season, and the Metdey High School we played against last season, are also TOP25 opponents in the United States, but they are ranked 21st and 12th respectively. Not as famous as Saint Mary's and Oak Hill."

Su Yang nodded upon hearing this.

In these high schools in the United States, the joining or leaving of a five-star high school student will greatly affect the strength of the team.Oak Hill High School, which ranked first in the United States last year, was promoted to college this year because of Anthony. Although it can still win the state championship, its dominance is obviously not as good as last year.

"Inside California, we have to win all."

The slogan was shouted, and the research on Westchester High School was carried out accordingly. First, watch the video to understand the basic offense and defense.

After watching at quadruple speed for more than half an hour, Su Yang confirmed that the offense and defense of Westchester High School had not changed in any way compared to last season.

In terms of players, although he was downgraded from a five-star high school student to a four-star high school student after the disastrous defeat to Su Yang, Ariza is still the boss of Westchester, and Amir Johnson and Gabe Pruitt, two future NBA players The players have also obviously become stronger than before, and Bobby Brown, but Hassan Adams has gone to Arizona for college.

The game started at [-] o'clock, and the host emphasized that "Trevor Ariza specially practiced his ball handling and shooting in the summer..."

But the host’s bragging was not over yet. Su Yang forced Ariza to be unable to dribble on the defensive end. The offensive end grew from 183 to 190 in nine months, and rubbed the opponent’s 188 cm tall Bobby Brown on the ground. Even Ariza's full defense was useless. He scored 37 points in just half of the game.

Su Yang didn't play in the second half, and Santa Monica won by 38 points.

At the post-match press conference, the reporter interviewed Westchester High School head coach Adam Adam: "How do you evaluate Su Yang's performance?"

Adam Adam's eyes were blazing, his teeth were gritted, and he said angrily, "I hope you will never become opponents with him. We could rely on our physical advantages to restrict him a little bit, but Now he's six feet three and there's nothing we can do about it..."

Such remarks appeared, and a few fans discussed whether Su Yang could grow to about 198 centimeters in basketball forums such as hoops.

On the same night, LeBron led St. Mary's High School and only played halftime. He beat George Jr. Republic High School 101-40 and scored 22 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals. The efficiency of key shots was very high. There was only 1 strike and 1 turnover, and it was obviously effortless.

The two games, which took place on the same night, became the subject of debate on ESPN's "Old School or Modern" early the next morning.

Surprisingly, whether it was Stephen Smith, who supported LeBron, or Scape Bayless, who belittled LeBron, they all just talked a little bit about the game between the two teams that night, and a lot of debate revolved around the previous national live broadcast.

A brief summary of the views of the two, Stephen Smith emphasized: St. Mary’s High School lost in the national live broadcast game, but LeBron did not lose, because LeBron went all out, and Su Yang was evenly matched, mainly because of St. Mary’s High School. The players are not as good as other members of Santa Monica High School. In such a situation, if Su Yang is allowed to lead St. Mary High School, he will also lose to LeBron leading Santa Monica High School.

And Skype Bayless emphasized: If Su Yang leads St. Mary's High School, he can definitely beat LeBron to lead Santa Monica High School, because Su Yang has many ways to score and will not take extreme measures like LeBron because of being targeted. model.

The two argued for half an hour and finally reached a consensus:
If Su Yang and LeBron want to win or lose in high school, they have to fight again. Anyway, there are EA Invitational, Jordan Training Camp, and McDonald's High School All-Stars. At that time, both LeBron and Su Yang will have the top level in the United States. teammates, the team gap will be small.

The discussion between the two sparked heated discussions on hoops and other basketball forums.

Almost all the fans agreed to arrange for Su Yang and LeBron to play three more games. Such a wonderful game must be watched a few more times.

NO.11 On this day, Santa Monica High School continued to compete in the California High School Basketball Division 25 League. The opponent was also the Metdey High School that they played before. By the way, they played the TOP[-] level match in the United States. The game was changed to the USC Gallon Center. .

Lakers owner Buss Sr. came to watch the game with his son Jim, and Spielberg, a famous Southern California alumnus, also attended.

ESPN originally wanted to broadcast live across the United States again, but was worried that Su Yang would be alone. Without LeBron, there would be insufficient traffic, so they switched to ESPN2 to broadcast live.The pre-match interviews followed, and DJ Stroberg, the main player of Mete Dei, said that he would get back the scene, especially Su Yang's dunk last season.

But only 1 minute into the game, Su Yang took the ball at the top of the arc and singled it out. After an emergency stop to pull the ball, he withdrew and knocked down Stroberg, and succeeded in a three-pointer.

Mete Dei High School turned to strict defense against Su Yang, starting from the backcourt. Once the halftime passed, as long as Su Yang tried to catch the ball or move, he would immediately delay in advance or directly switch defenses, and even resorted to triangle and two defensive strategies, at all costs to prevent Su Yang from scoring, and then force the rest of Santa Monica to score, and the sword is slanted forward.

Its head coach Gary Knight even shouted loudly: "The game can be lost, but Su Yang must be guarded!"

But at Santa Monica High School, all kinds of backcourt screens in advance and guerrilla warfare generally help Su Yang get an open chance to catch the ball. However, the long pass practiced by St. Mary High School before was used again. Catch the ball and rush to score.

No way, the full-court press at the St. Mary's High School level can handle it, and the full-court press at Metedi High School is the most beggar version.

At the end of the game, Su Yang scored 32 points, and Ron, Tommy and others also scored in double figures, winning a big victory.

After the handshake after the game, the cheerleaders from the University of Southern California came up in a swarm, smelling and squeezing, and Su Yang was almost out of breath.
ESPN commented after the game, guest commentator James Worthy praised and commented that Su Yang was "invincible within the scope of high school".

In the morning edition of the Los Angeles Times the next day, reporter Ramona teased that Coach Gary Knight would never be invited to coach the McDonald's All-Stars again, because not only did he have a completely wrong perception of Su Yang, but he also misunderstood everyone else at Santa Monica High School. Cognition is wrong.

In fact, the overall level is too far apart, and they are forced to go to extremes to win the victory, which makes the scene even uglier.

But a comedy staged, did not attract much attention.

There was a major incident with LeBron James. His mother borrowed money to buy a $[-] Hummer car with three TVs, which caused great controversy. St. Mary’s High School and the Ohio Basketball League considered banning LeBron Continue to compete, and the hot media followed up with a large number of topics, leading to discuss whether it is worthwhile for LeBron to give up college.

Su Yang was also interviewed by beauty reporter Erin Andrews on the phone, and was asked how she felt about the LeBron incident.

"As to whether it's worth it for LeBron to give up college, I think what needs to be considered is the opportunity cost..."

Su Yang suddenly thought of Mankiw's version of Economics Principles. He began by explaining the opportunity cost of the top ten economic theories, using Kobe Bryant's skipping high school and directly participating in the NBA draft as a case example, and immediately quoted it as an answer.

ESPN reported Su Yang's opinion in the program: I think it doesn't matter if LeBron goes to college or not. Personally, I suggest entering the league early. Anyway, he can apply in the future. There have been many cases in the NBA where players returned to school after entering the league.

For example, Carter went to take graduation photos before the tiebreaker of the playoffs.

However, Su Yang's rational remarks caused many good fans to say that he was afraid of participating in the same draft as LeBron, and he would not dare to play against LeBron in college, because LeBron would have stronger teammates at that time, and then Expose the fact that Su Yang relies on system bonuses.

Su Yang didn't bother to respond.

After a two-day break, the Santa Monica team flew to Indianapolis for an away game against Peek High School, which ranks second in the United States.

Maybe Su Yang, as a popular high school player, finally went to Indian State once. The head coaches of Purdue, Butler and other universities all came to watch the game. NFL Colts star Peyton Manning and NBA Pacers star Reggie Miller, the head coach Thomas also came to see it.

Reggie Miller was interviewed and said: "I haven't watched the national live broadcast. I just want to confirm whether Su Yang is really as good as the legends say." Paul Pierce still doesn't believe that LeBron is very good after LeBron entered the league. that feeling.

The game will be held at Conkers Arena, home of the Pacers.

I did some research before the game and found that Peak High School won the state championship last season with 29 wins and 0 losses. Since the new season, it has also maintained a complete victory. The main players are Courtney Lee, the future dunker, and David Dee. Ge, after careful scrutiny, I found out that it is Jeff Teague's cousin. I have never heard of it in the NBA in the future, but it is also very strong according to the information. It is 196 cm tall and weighs 89KG.

04:30 officially started.

Pique High School won the ball and deliberately stayed away from Su Yang's area for the first attack, obviously out of fear of his amazing defense.

Courtney Lee and David Teague didn't run any tactics, they relied on their physical advantages to be much better than ordinary players, and they played all kinds of simple and rough singles. When they turned to the defensive end, they played unlimited defenses and let Su Yang score through singles. , basically did not give other players of Santa Monica High School a chance to make a move, and its head coach Troy yelled frantically from the sidelines: Jordan can't kill a team by himself!
Seeing that posture and hearing the ridicule, Su Yang told Ron and other teammates: "Tonight, I may not pass the ball very much."

After finishing speaking, Su Yang started a crazy one-on-one performance: learn from Durant, use the cover to lift up with short feet, catch the ball and make a good figure, or dribble a jumper with an emergency stop, or point the defender to the basket and release Basket, or emergency stop to pull the ball and retreat to make a strong three-pointer;

Also subject to catch the ball on both wings, get stuck with your back on the move, or turn over and lean back, hit the defender, and connect up and down to rush to the basket;

Also learn from Curry to test the ball with small and fast dribbles in a row, suddenly take off with one foot to shoot three-pointers, or worship Buddha to change direction and rush to the basket;
Even like Lillard and Tre Young, he was lucky and suddenly withdrew a three-pointer, shocking Reggie Miller into silence.

In the face of his crazy and efficient scoring, whether it is Courtney Lee or David Teague's single defense, or the delayed start and double-teaming, nothing can stop him, and fouls are useless.

The key point is that in addition to scoring efficiently, Su Yang also took the initiative to defend the two main players of Peak High School Courtney Lee and David Teague on the defensive end, so as to dominate both offense and defense like Jordan, instead of many superstars, they can only do their best on the offensive end. output.

最终，苏扬狂砍57分4助攻15篮板5抢断4盖帽，带领圣莫尼卡高中，8分小胜皮克高中。

One person really beat Peak High to death.

The whistle sounded at the end of the game, Peyton Manning and Reggie Miller stood up and applauded, but Larry Bird was sad in the corner. When the reporter interviewed him why, he replied: After Jordan, the league appeared Su Yang and Le Brown's two new sheriffs will be the biggest problem for our Pacers.

At the press conference after the game, Troy, the head coach of Peak High School, faced the reporter's question, his face was like a loss, and he said embarrassingly: "Those blocks and steals did not fully demonstrate Su Yang's defensive dominance. He destroyed us."

After the game, the Santa Monica team flew back to Los Angeles.

The time spent waiting for the plane,
The whole team bored together to watch gossip news, about Britney Spears finding a new boyfriend Jason Alexander, about Jessica Alba breaking up with her boyfriend Weatherly, about JAYZ's new album "99 Questions" selling well sale.

For Britney Spears to find a new boyfriend, Ron, Tommy and others lamented that they were born at the wrong time.Su Yang was happy to hear it, but he didn't feel much. He didn't like Britney Spears very much, but Jennifer Connelly.

Back in Los Angeles, after three days of rest for Christmas, the Division I journey continued, and the opponent was old acquaintance Sierra Canyon High School.

The game started at 40:20 p.m. and ended on time at [-]:[-] p.m., a total of [-] minutes of the game, plus [-] minutes of rest. The main Sierra Canyon High School had no resistance, so there was no desire to foul, and the game process was extremely smooth.

After New Year's Day, on the 12rd, Santa Monica High School played against Rainier Beach High School. In front of their well-known alumni Jamal Crawford and Nate Robinson, Su Yang made a backhanded zombie jump and flipped The young Terrence Ross hit his No. [-] three-pointer.

It was a big win in the end.

After the game, Rivals updated the ranking of high school students. For the first time, Su Yang and LeBron tied for the number one high school student in the United States.

The fact that there are two No. [-] high school students sparked heated discussions on hoops and other basketball forums, and fans called for another game as soon as possible.

However, St. Mary's High School has several games scheduled for the future, and Santa Monica High School is about to face No. [-] Oak Hill.

On the afternoon of the [-]th, the Santa Monica High School team practiced.

Tommy excitedly said to Su Yang: "Boss, as a foreigner, you may still not know that Oak Hill High School is the supreme existence of American high school basketball. Although their dominance is mediocre this year, as long as they beat them, plus our previous With the accumulation of wins, we will become national champions."
