Chapter 6 The season begins, UCLA is coming!
When Lynn Nance saw that the situation was stable, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, boys, the training match is over here."
Lu Feng: "..."
It feels so uncomfortable to lose, but it’s obviously not like I don’t have a chance...
Afterwards, Lynn Nance asked everyone to roll the iron, which is also the norm in this era.
In this era of professional basketball, the most important aspect of training is not shooting, but fitness.
Do you think this is to allow players to strengthen confrontation and adapt to this era of fierce defense?
No, in fact, the most important purpose is to let the players lose weight.
Even in the NBA, there are a large group of players who cannot control their weight and body fat. Let them lose weight, maintain their athletic ability, and reduce the probability of injury. This is what coaches value most in training.
The only exception is Jeff Brown. Lynn Nance asked his assistant to help him train his steps under the basket alone.
After a training session, Lynn Nance handed over the task of urging Jeff Brown to lose weight to his roommate Lu Feng.
In addition to normal physical training, Lu Feng also conducted special shooting training. When his mid-range shooting attributes encountered a bottleneck, what he needed was to shoot again and again to develop muscle memory.
In addition, Lu Feng also made a special appointment with Eldridge to learn defense from him.
His pick-and-roll ability is very average, and it all depends on his speed. He feels that Eldridge's short-step defense is very suitable for him.
After the training, Lu Feng and Lynn Nance went to apply for a sports scholarship together. They encountered no difficulties and the application went smoothly.
The team trained three times a week, lasting 2-3 hours each time. Lynn Nance tried various lineups and finally determined the team lineup.
After Jeff Brown accepted his fate, he began to learn to play inside, and finally succeeded in becoming.
Brent Merritt also scored, swinging the 2 and 3 positions with Eldridge.
In the lineup, the only person taller than 2 meters is Jeff Brown, who is 2.06 meters tall. Doug Meekins at position 4 is only 1.98 meters tall. Brent Merritt and Eldridge are the same height, 1.91 meters.
p>
No. 1 is undoubtedly Lu Feng, who is 1.83 meters tall.
A standard small ball lineup, but this is not how good Lynn Nance’s tactics are, it’s just that no one is available.
Three months passed in a hurry, and Lu Feng's daily life was uneventful.
I attended classes, trained, practiced ball, and even borrowed Aldridge’s car to get my driver’s license.
The driver's license test in the United States is different from that in China. You use your own car. Of course, Lu Feng can only borrow a car if he doesn't have one.
After three months of hard training, Lu Feng’s attributes have also undergone qualitative changes!

Starting from the end of November, NCAA teams can schedule non-conference games on their own.
The NCAA regular season is divided into conference games and non-conference games.
Non-league games are games that teams agree to play, while league games are games between teams in the same division.
Both conference and non-conference games need to be registered with the NCAA, so they will be counted as official records.
At the beginning of the new season, Lynn Nance handed UCLA a letter to start the non-conference game as usual.
In the NCAA, wealthy and prestigious schools like UCLA, UCLV and Duke will not apply for non-conference games. Games with these wealthy schools are not only broadcast live, but also sell tickets.
He was prepared to be rejected, and planned to continue applying to several other wealthy and powerful teams after being rejected, trying to delay the opening game as much as possible to give the team more time to adjust.
Then, he received the news that UCLA approved the Huskies’ application!
Lynn Nance: "..."
He forgot that he was now the coach of the Huskies and was used to thinking with the same mindset as the previous year.
For UCLA, what should we do if there is a team that is close to us or a team from the same division comes to our door?
Of course I accept it!
The journey is easy, and a big win in the opening game of the new season can also boost the team's morale, so why not?
During Wednesday's training session, Lynn Nance announced the news to everyone.
"Boys, our first game schedule has been released. This year our team will participate in the NCAA opening game!"
Eldridge said excitedly: "Good coach, who is our opponent?"
"Our goal this year is to reach March Madness, so I think we need a strong team competition to test everyone's running-in results and allow you to quickly enter the game state."
Lynn Nan paused and said loudly: "So, our first game will be against UCLA. In addition, I also received a notice that this game will be broadcast live across the United States. Be prepared from now on.
Come on, Husky warriors!"
Lynn Nance's words were righteous, and there was no hint of guilt at all.
But the Huskies players don't think so.
Players know very well how strong UCLA is. Last year, UCLA had five quasi-NBA players, and this year it recruited two national five-star high school students, Tracy Murray and Mitchell Butler.
There are only 25 five-star high school students in the United States every year, and there are only 75 to 100 four-star high school students every year, accounting for a total of 10 of UCLA's 11-man roster!
In the NCAA, this is the difference between a wealthy family and a weak one!
In the original world, only Eldridge of the Huskies could make it to the NBA, and he only successfully made it to the NBA after being undrafted and training hard in overseas leagues for several years. But what about UCLA?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
A total of 7 players from UCLA's 1989-90 roster entered the NBA, and none of them went undrafted!
Seeing the silence of a group of people, Eldridge first said: "This will be a good game, isn't it? This is a national broadcast. The Huskies didn't even have a national broadcast last season. Besides..."
Standing up straight, Eldridge said confidently: "Don't forget, we have Jeff and Brent this year, and more importantly, we have a road!"
"From now on, let's get into the game!" He stretched out his hand, "Guys, give me your hands!"
The newcomers learn how to put their hands together...
"Thousands of pieces - Husky!"
[Ding, it has been detected that the host has officially started his B-League (NCAA League) career, and the season mode has started!]
Season mode introduction: Based on the season, after the end of the season, the season rewards will be settled based on the host's personal performance and team performance!
Host: Lu Feng
Current league: ncaa league
League level:B level
Current season: 1989-1990 season
Status: Season in progress (not yet settled)
Lu Feng was surprised that the system actually responded!
In the past three months, Lu Feng had been training silently, trying to realize his potential. During these three months, no matter how Lu Feng trained, the system did not respond.
He guessed that the system would have the next function after the official game started, but he did not expect that it would be a regular task on a season basis.
Well, at least this way Lu Feng doesn't have to worry about what he will have to do in 35 seconds and 13 minutes in the future, and he doesn't have to rebound for a triple-double. Compared with these things, Lu Feng is more willing to simply think about how to win.
Ball.
On November 30th, the Huskies stood at the entrance of the tunnel at Heck Edmondson Arena, full of fighting spirit.
Lu Feng looked at a group of UCLA players wearing white and blue jerseys opposite each other, chatting and joking with each other, and took a deep breath.
My first game is about to begin!
Lu Feng's eyes were full of fighting spirit...
Finally...finally stand on the professional basketball court!
In the arena, the deep voice of the announcer came——
"First of all, let us welcome, from Los Angeles, University of California - UCLA!"
Chapter completed!
