Chapter 29 Climbing to the top of the alliance
After a period of quiet, the Confederacy resumed war.
After Christmas, the Wildcats' first opponent is the University of Rhode Island.
The University of Rhode Island is a typical weak team. It has yet to reach March Madness, and its overall strength is worrying.
There is no team in the Southern Conference that can stop the Wildcats from advancing, and they are just going through the motions.
Since they are back from vacation, most players have not yet returned to their best condition.
Sun Yi and Curry are exceptions. They started high-intensity training after Christmas Eve.
In order to achieve the small goals set by Curry, the two of them worked hard to train and improve their own strength.
Therefore, the two of them were in hot shape in this game and performed at a dominant level on both offense and defense.
At the end of the first half, the score on the big screen was 48 to 18. The Wildcats only allowed the University of Rhode Island to score 18 points.
Under the threat of Sun Yi's death, it was very difficult for the University of Rhode Island players to dribble the ball past half court. If they barely passed the ball, they would be intercepted and stolen by other Wildcat players.
The full-court press problem that plagues the Chinese men's basketball team falls on the University of Rhode Island players.
Obviously, they couldn't find a way to break the full-court press.
After only the first half of the game, the suspense was lost. University of Rhode Island fans lost interest in watching the game and used urine escape to leave the arena.
After the second half of the game started, there were only a few loyal University of Rhode Island fans left in the audience.
As for the scouts and media reporters, they didn't come at all. Such a matchup with a huge disparity in strength had no popularity and no reference value.
You don't even have to watch the game to know that the Wildcats won another big victory.
After the second half of the game started, the Wildcats' offensive was still unstoppable, beating the University of Rhode Island to consecutive defeats.
Sun Yi, Curry and Whiteside only played a few minutes before being replaced.
Burks, the head coach of the University of Rhode Island, breathed a sigh of relief after seeing those bad guys from the Wildcats go off the field.
He was really worried that McClop would not uphold martial ethics and would let his disciples work hard to gain points.
Fortunately, this old guy knows how to deal with the world and didn't embarrass each other.
Immediately, Burks replaced most of the main players and told the players on the court to score as hard as they could and not to create a shameful record.
As time passed, the game came to an end.
In the end, the score was fixed at 88-33. The Wildcats defeated the University of Rhode Island with a huge score and won their seventh consecutive regular season victory.
Burks, the head coach of the University of Rhode Island, looked at the score on the big screen and wiped the sweat from his forehead in shock.
"It's so thrilling! It almost set a record for the lowest score in a single game in NCAA history."
After adjusting his mentality, Birx smiled and went to shake hands with McClop.
Sun Yi and others on the bench saw the game ended, got up and walked to the players' tunnel.
At this stage, the Southern League's regular season has no training significance for them, so they might as well go back early for additional training.
After this game, the Wildcats started the random killing mode. From after Christmas until February, they hit a wave of 20 consecutive victories and have not lost a single game since the start of the game!
During this period, Sun Yi, Curry and Whiteside worked hard to improve their rankings on draft websites.
Sun Yi averaged 21.5 points, 6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 3.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game, and his predicted draft ranking was raised to the end of the first round.
Curry averaged a double-double of 27 points, 11.5 assists and 1.5 steals per game, and his predicted draft ranking has improved to the top ten.
Whiteside averaged a double-double of 16.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game, and his predicted draft ranking has improved to the middle of the second round.
In these two months, Sun Yi not only improved his draft ranking, but also improved his strength.
During this period of time, Sun Yi would go to Curry to practice sparring whenever he had free time, and he had accumulated enough training points needed for system upgrades.
"Ding! The system upgrade conditions have been met. Do you want to upgrade?"
"Upgrade!" Sun Yi made his choice immediately.
"Ding! The system was upgraded successfully, and 10 non-attribute points were obtained."
After the system prompt ended, Sun Yi couldn't wait to open the system panel.

After checking the system panel, Sun Yi began to think about his future plans.
If you want to upgrade the system again to obtain non-attribute bonus points, it will take a long time to accumulate enough training points.
Therefore, adding points this time is Sun Yi's last chance to significantly improve his strength before entering the NBA.
First he tried to add the highest speed attribute, but failed.
"I knew there would be restrictions. If you want to improve high numerical attributes, you may have to meet some conditions."
Sun Yi felt a little regretful, and then looked at other attributes.
"My physical fitness has basically reached the NBA level. The most important thing now is that I lack stable scoring methods."
After thinking about it, Sun Yi decided to use these 10 points-adding opportunities on his mid-range shooting attributes.
After adding points, he checked his personal attribute panel.
Personal attributes:
Technical attributes; ball control: 62, passing: 60
Offensive attributes; three-pointers: 45, mid-range shots: 80, layups: 62, free throws: 85
Defensive attributes; rebounds: 59, steals: 63, blocks: 45, lateral speed: 75
Physical attributes; Speed: 80, Stamina: 70, Bounce: 71, Strength: 70
During these two months, Sun Yi also improved some attributes by 1 to 3 points through training.
And he found that the higher the attribute value, the slower the improvement speed, which is not good news.
It shows that as you go to the back, the attribute value can only be improved by adding points, and cannot be improved by normal training.
For such problems, there is no rush to solve them immediately. The top priority is to complete the small goals in front of you.
Sun Yi closed the attribute panel, spent a certain number of training points, and entered the virtual dreamland to conduct individual training to adapt to the explosive increase in mid-range shooting ability.
…
The Wildcats' crushing journey continues. After defeating several opponents in succession, they head to the road to challenge the Virginia Commonwealth University Rams.
In this game, the Wildcats still performed at a dominant level and did not encounter the same stubborn resistance as in the first match. They defeated the Rams and easily won the game.
After this game, the Wildcats won the Southern Conference regular season championship four games in advance.
In the next four games, the Wildcats also won easily.
At this point, the Davidson Wildcats ended the regular season with a undefeated record.
Not only did it break the Southern Conference's longest winning streak, it also created the best record in Southern Conference history.
