Chapter 18 Regular Season

After a win against the USC Trojans, the Bruins are confident about the upcoming Pac-64 championship game and the future of the Round of [-].George's coaching ability has also begun to gain the trust of the players.Liu Han's wonderful performance in the game left a deep impression on both sides of the game and the audience. They all remembered this handsome figure who turned back directly after shooting a three-pointer.

The Trojans, who lost in the game, also began to regroup. They will play against the Bruins twice in the upcoming regular season of the Pacific Ten Schools League. They are looking forward to giving the Bruins a good look in future games.

The Bruins team who returned to school also began to step up training. Head coach Jim Harrick resumed the team's daily training. During the training, he still chose to completely ignore the existence of Liu Han.The head coach's ignorance made Liu Han feel very uncomfortable. Now he can only conduct proper ball training under the guidance of George Krent, who was also ignored by the head coach.

George has been completely disappointed with Jim Harrick. He feels that Jim's self-willedness will only make the Bruins get nothing this season.

Liu Han was unable to participate in the team's overall tactical training, but he still started a lot of ball training with the help of George. His physical condition and shooting ability have reached a certain level. Now what Liu Han needs most is Feel and control of the ball.

There was a strange scene in the training hall of the Bruins. The rest of the team was training while Liu Han and George were doing other training in the corner.

At the end of December 1994, the regular season of the Pacific Ten Schools League to which the Bruins belonged began.The Pacific Ten Schools Alliance, composed of Washington State University, University of Washington, Stanford University, UC Berkeley, UCLA, University of Southern California, University of Arizona, Arizona State University, University of Oregon and Oregon State University, is the top NCAA league For one, they are the league with the largest number of NCAA championships.During the regular season, each school will play against each other twice, once at home and away. The top eight teams with the best final scores will participate in the league championship game. After the cruel single-round elimination round, the team that won the league championship will directly advance to the top 64. .

The ambitious Bruins suffered a blow in their first game at Stanford University, losing 87 to 79 to last season's underdog.What made the Bruins even worse was that the team's main center sprained his ankle during the game and had to rest for at least three weeks.

In the next regular season, the Bruins, which lacked the main center, lost to Stanford University and the University of Arizona with a gap of [-] points and a gap of [-] points. In this way, Stanford University double-killed the Bruins at home and away. The team immediately ushered in the challenge of the University of Arizona.

Before the game, George Clent approached the team's head coach Jim Harrick, hoping that Jim would allow Liu Han to play for a limited time in the next game, but the headstrong Jim Harrick still refused George's suggestion.

In the game against the University of Arizona, the UCLA Bruins beat the opponent by one point at the last minute with a free throw by the team's top star Aubonno amidst the cheers of [-] alumni in the Pauley Pavilion. Team coach Jim Harrick's pressure was slightly relieved.

Liu Han watched the whole game on the sidelines bench, he has always been in a good mood, he finally felt anxious this time.

With back-to-back home and away wins over the University of Washington and Arizona State over the next four games, the Bruins finally seemed to be on the right track.

Li Rui finally returned to the United States one month after returning to China, and he will soon take over the basketball team of Inglewood High School.Li Rui was very pleased with Liu Han's gradually mature performance. He was also very angry that Liu Han could not play, but the team's head coach Jim Harrick seemed to discriminate against Chinese people.

The record of the Bruins became five wins and three losses after eight games, but no one expected that the performance of the Bruins would directly undergo a 180-degree change in the next five games. Lost four games, among which they were double-killed by USC (University of Southern California) at home and away. The Bruins also beat USC by a big score before the start of the regular season, but they did not expect that they would be found by their opponents just one month later. Not to the north, which surprised the audience watching the game at home.

George Crent once again found the head coach Jim Harrick.

"Jim, you can't do this anymore. I know you feel that I violated your authority, but you can't continue to ignore Han's existence. He is a talent worth investing in. He has talent, training is positive enough, and his mentality Very good, and I love basketball enough, you can’t continue to treat him like this.” George chose to talk to Jim straight to the point.

"Enough, George, don't let me take my appreciation as your unscrupulous capital, I can bear your first time, the second time, but definitely not the third time, just because of a yellow-skinned kid you betrayed Me, he is a variable, his arrival has ruined my painstaking arrangements, the team does not need a soft guy who dare not even enter the three-point line." Jim Harrick's words are also direct enough.

"You know what you're talking about, Jim Harrick, you're racist, I misread you, Jim Harrick, your ridiculous egos and pathetic notions are going to ruin this season, you Take care of yourself." George, who was so angry, broke with Jim Harrick completely.

Liu Han also felt very helpless about the poor performance of the team. He sat on the bench thinking all the time, what would he do if he was on the field, but the head coach never let him play, so Liu Han could only Vent the depression all over your body in training.Liu Han, who has devoted himself to training, has made great progress. He has mastered most of his dribbling skills and back-up skills, but it is a pity that he has not yet been confirmed in the game.

The Bruins have only achieved six wins and seven losses in thirteen games, which is completely different from their performance in the regular season last season, but fortunately the team's main center George Zidek finally returned from injury Yes, and as long as the regular season results can keep the No.8 Bruins, they still have a chance.

After the team's main center returned to the team, the performance of the Bruins finally changed. They defeated Oregon State University, which had defeated them in the away game, 72 to 61 at home, and double-killed the University of Oregon at home and away. Finally, they confirmed their top eight. s position.

Liu Han didn't get a chance to play for 1 minute in all the regular seasons, so his existence has been kept secret so far. It's just that there is a legend of the yellow race marksman in the Bruins in the University of Southern California, and others Opponents who pay attention to the performance of the Bruins only know that the Bruins have a yellow "mascot". This "mascot" has watched the entire regular season on the bench. Good location.

Liu Han felt very disappointed about not being able to participate in the team's regular season. He felt that it was a bit like what he felt in Shizui Village, with discriminating eyes and jokes everywhere.

"Boy, did you not play again? I told you earlier that the head coach is an idiot. He never looked at you from the very beginning." Liu Han, who returned to LaBeouf's home, was greatly appreciated by LaBeouf. Straightforward "comfort", but I have to say that LaBeouf is very accurate.

"I think you should talk to that stupid X coach of yours and tell him you're not a jerk and you gotta play or you'll kick his ass haha ​​boy don't think violence is wrong sometimes Simple is often the most effective." LaBeouf, as always, instilled Liu Han with his own concept of "tough guy".

"Han, don't listen to what my father said. He is lying to you. If you hit your coach, you will be fired. Then you have to learn boxing from LaBeouf." Safina who happened to be at home After hearing the conversation between her father and Liu Han, she directly exposed her father's lies.After watching the match between the Bruins and the Trojans, Savannah's attitude towards Liu Han has changed, and she now thinks Liu Han's "stupidness" is actually a bit cute.

"Thank you, Mr. LaBeouf, but I still decided to continue practicing basketball. Even if I can't play, I think as long as I continue to practice, one day I will be qualified to play." Liu Han, who has gradually matured, slowly began Show your charm.

"You're right, Han, but I think you can talk to Mr. John Wooden, maybe he can help you." Apart from being a little rebellious, Safina has inherited her Jewish mother's heritage in other aspects. Talented, quite intelligent.

"Hey, my cute little Safina girl, you can't expose your father like this, don't you want to find me an oriental boy-in-law just like your sister? Haha!" Safina who is returning home on time It made LaBeouf very happy, so he joked about his youngest daughter and Liu Han.

"Thank you, Safina, maybe I can talk to Mr. Wooden..."
