"Hahahaha...I'm not willing to give in! I'm really unwilling to give in! Yes! I'm really not willing to give in! Wuwuwuwu..."

In the early morning of April 2, 2006, Yesi tried his best to carry Afflalo from the hotel restaurant back to their suite.

He threw Afflalo, who had drunk too much, to the ground. Yesi was also very tired.

These guys at UCLA are really hard to take care of. They have to take responsibility for drinking when they lose a game!

Even the hotel staff were frightened by the group of big men weighing almost 200 pounds. They had no choice but to ask a passing University of Washington player to help.

After Yes brought Afflalo in, Roy and the others brought in Jordan Farmar, Luke Richard Mbah a Moute, Cedric Bozeman, Ryan Hollins, Da

Len Collison and the others also came in.

In the NCAA semifinals on April 1, there is no suspense in the match between the University of Washington and UCLA.

UCLA, which was defeated three times by the University of Washington this season, did not want to be defeated four times. Afflalo and the others really worked hard.

But in the end, UCLA was shot down by Yes and Roy.

The Storm brothers combination of Yeas and Roy scored a combined 71 points in this game.

In the end, the University of Washington also sent UCLA out.

Looking at the crying and laughing UCLA players who were thrown on the carpet in the living room, Yes asked the hotel attendant to bring some hot water.

In the United States, they don't have the habit of drinking hot water.

"Hahahaha... Do you still remember... When you were a freshman... Whenever you guys came back, you were always talking about how to play the game on the court. Only me, I sat on the bench every day.

You won’t even break a sweat…”

Seeing Afflalo, a guy who was usually so arrogant, now speaking incoherently, Ye Si wanted to go up and kick him.

If your strength is not good enough, why would you feel aggrieved by being a substitute?

"Aaron, don't be dissatisfied! Why did our team have Dion Thompson at that time? Later, the team also helped you. Besides, Darren has to start from the bench now!"

"Hiccup, although I'm usually unhappy with Aaron's arrogance, this year, it's really him who led us to the semi-finals. Substitutes are not the key, winning is what's important. If we make it to the finals, I'm willing to

"Give the starting position to Darren" Cedric Postman put his arm around the shoulders of Afflalo and Jordan Farmar: "I wish you can score so many points in the NBA!"

Afflalo, who was still drunk, pushed Bozeman away: "Cedric, what are you talking about? We want to go to the NBA together!"

"If I can't do it, no team will want me now, but Aaron doesn't have to worry about me. If I can't do it in the NBA, I can go overseas. I won't give up basketball, even if I am no longer the number one high school student in the United States. I

I will never give up basketball. Thank you, Aaron. It was you who made me stand up again. It was you who made the national media notice that the No. 1 high school student four years ago was still playing and even entered the NCAA's fourth round.

Strong! Woohoo...I'm very happy, really happy to have you brothers, haha...it's great..."

With a bang, Afflalo unwillingly clenched his fist and slammed the floor. The half-drunk UCLA players next to him thought that the usually irritable Afflalo was going to do something stupid again.

But when they looked over, Afflalo's face turned red from crying.

"Brothers, can you, can you play with me for another year!"

"Aaron, you are crazy!"

Ye Si, who was pouring hot water for them, was stunned.

Afflalo wants to play for one more year?

Afflalo performed extremely well in the NCAA March Madness this year, and now his draft pick prediction has reached the lottery.

If you play for another year, the variables will become bigger.

"Going to the NBA draft, right now, I just want to pursue my dream!"

Chasing your dream...?

"Hot! Yes, you have to persuade me too!"

“Drink it colder”

Drink it colder?

Yes didn’t kick me?!

"let's go"

Yease left the UCLA suite with the University of Washington players.

Early in the morning on the day of the finals on April 3, 2006, Ye Si got up early.

There was no surprise in the finals opponent of the University of Washington, which was the University of Florida, which is now known as the strongest defense in the NCAA.

They defeated George Mason University in the semifinals with a score of 77-52.

In all five March Madness games Florida has played, no team has scored more than 60 points against any of their opponents.

A very scary defensive performance!

This and the University of Washington's offensive performance of 100 points per game are considered to be NCAA historical levels!

Now the University of Washington, led by Yes and Roy, is rated as the strongest offensive team in the NCAA by USA Today.

The University of Florida, led by Noah and Horford, was rated as the strongest defensive team in the NCAA by USA Today.

Especially Joakim Noah of the University of Florida, in five March Madness games, he averaged 15,105 per game, and 5 was not assists, but blocks!

Now on the draft prospect list, Noah's draft prospect has rushed to the top three.

Like Yes, Noah is already the favorite to be the No. 1 pick!

This is the charm of NCAA March Madness, which will make Afflalo and the others try their best to pursue their dreams.

At the same time, these outstanding dream chasers will also be given high-return rewards.

Noah is the best example.

"What happened to the boys these past two days? Are you suddenly working so hard?"

Looking at the University of Washington players who followed Yes for a run early in the morning, Coach Romar was a little puzzled.

In the past, only Ye Si had the habit of running early in the morning, and at most the Garfield Five were included, and the others were indifferent.

Basketball players are very tall, and long-distance running is not very friendly to them.

"Mr. Romar, I heard that they were stimulated by UCLA."

“Stimulated by UCLA?”

What is this and what?

"They don't want Yes to keep them for another year!"

"They want Yes to go to the NBA and become the No. 1 pick this year and make a lot of money!"

That's it...

After hearing what his assistant Ozenberg said, Romar suddenly realized.

I want to win the championship this year...

Now that the University of Washington has reached the finals, its goal must be the NCAA's highest honor!

But, the University of Florida is very strong this year!

He has watched a lot of University of Florida videos in the past two days.

This team is much harder to beat than Duke.

After defeating Duke by a big score, the University of Washington's probability of winning the championship was considered to have reached 99%.

But after the University of Florida swept Texas and UConn in a row, the University of Washington's odds of winning plummeted!

The University of Florida has two outstanding insiders, Noah and Horford, who can defend alone, assist in defense, and attack. They are almost omnipotent!

Because of the presence of these two people, the University of Florida's outside players can press the opponent's outside like crazy.

Florida's defense is extremely aggressive!

If the outside players are out of position because they are too aggressive, Noah and Horford can make up for it.

If Noah is out of position because he is too aggressive, Horford can also make up for it, and vice versa.

It's like the University of Washington's offense is not at the NCAA level, it's like it's cheating.

The University of Florida's defense doesn't look like it's at the NCAA level!

This is a very tough opponent!

Romar believes his players see this, too.

From Duke to UConn to the University of Florida.

Their strongest opponent this year didn't reveal its true identity until the last moment.
Chapter completed!
