Chapter 157 Fighting Again at George Mason University ([-])

Fairfax, George Mason University.

The game hadn't started yet, but the arena was already full of people, it was dark, and all kinds of discussions and conversations were mixed together, creating an endless hustle and bustle.

"coming."

"It's from Davis College."

Seeing the Wildcats players coming out of the player tunnel, the home fans in the auditorium immediately booed everywhere, and the huge boos filled the arena, echoing endlessly.

This kind of booing is commonplace for the Wildcats, and they have long been immune to it. Even the louder the boos in the audience, the more excited they are.

"Oh, it seems that George Mason University is very hostile to us." Patrick smiled, raised his head and strode with his head high, with a majestic and high-spirited look.

During this period of time, he trained very hard and lost 3 kilograms of weight. Although he has not recovered to the state before the winter vacation, he is much better than when he returned from the winter vacation.

Gordon glanced at the auditorium and laughed, "That's because they lost the last game at our home court, George Mason University. They must not be convinced. Look at them, this is to give us a blow." .”

"Just by them?"

"Hmph, we were able to beat them last time, and we can do the same this time. And it will only be easier than last time. We haven't stood still for more than a month."

Everyone said something to each other, and the fighting spirit was high.

Evan smiled and shouted: "Don't take it lightly. George Mason University is very strong, and this is their home court. They will only be more difficult to deal with at home."

"rest assured."

"Captain, we won't take it lightly. When it's time for the game, we'll definitely play [-] points. But we're telling the truth. They're not our opponents."

The crowd laughed.

Evan didn't bother to argue with them, he just told everyone not to take it lightly, otherwise Coach Carl would not be happy if he lost the game.

As soon as Mason Carr was mentioned, everyone immediately became honest.

After a while, players from George Mason University also played one after another.

After all, this is their home court. Players from George Mason University came out one after another, and the fans immediately screamed and cheered. The scene was very hot.

When the cheers subsided, Leo Cairns came over, took the initiative to hug Meng Yun, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for more than a month. It feels like you have grown stronger again."

"That's it." Meng Yun smiled and said, "You have to be careful."

He and Meng Yun are also acquaintances, Leo Cairns frowned, but he was not angry: "I know, you have improved a lot in the past month or so, and you scored 20+ in the last game against the Fordham University Rams. The data of 7. But don’t be complacent, I have not made no progress in the past month or so, you will know later.”

Meng Yun raised his eyebrows and became a little excited: "Okay, I'll wait."

Afterwards, Evan and Anthony Mallory also said hello, and Jerry Babbitt and Jack Wyatt also said hello to Meng Yun.

Originally, Jack Huanyat didn't like Meng Yun very much, but now his attitude is much better, because Meng Yun's strength has won his respect.

In fact, the Wildcats and George Mason University are not mortal enemies. Although they are rivals, they have a good relationship.

Of course, when it comes to the competition, no one will show mercy!
After some warm-up, the two sides returned to the sidelines.

For the Wildcats, Mason Carr said: "Wait a minute, Patrick, Evan, Ronald, John, Andy, you guys start."

"Yes." Patrick was the first to answer, very excited, he finally returned to the starting lineup, it seems that the hard training these days is still effective, um, we must maintain it in the future!

Everyone looked at Patrick and burst out laughing.

Mason Carr also laughed, glared at Patrick, and said, "You play hard for me. If you don't play well, I will replace you at any time."

Hearing this sentence, Gordon laughed immediately, and joked: "Patrick, did you hear that? I've been waiting. If you can't do it, replace me. I'm sure I'm better than you."

"You? You're far behind me." Patrick pouted.

This is just a joke, and it can be regarded as healthy competition, which is a good thing.

Mason Carr spread out the tactical board and began to arrange tactics.
Not far away, George Mason University head coach Adam Horton is also setting up.

George Mason University's starting lineup has not changed, center is still Anthony Mallory, power forward is Steven Ackerman, small forward Holt Gerrard, shooting guard Leo Keynes, point guard Charles - brown.

Only in terms of tactics, Adam Horton made some adjustments: "Evan must be well guarded at this point, and he can double-team when necessary. However, it should be noted that the current Wildcats are different from before. In the past, they relied on The most important thing is Evan's personal ability, but now they have excellent overall offensive ability. So everyone must defend well, and no one can be missed."

"As for the offensive end, we have to play patiently. But as long as there is an opportunity, whether it is an inside offense or an outside offense, we must be resolute and play our momentum."

A group of George Mason University players listened and took orders.

When the two sides have arranged their tactics, the game is about to begin.

In the audience, a fan looked at the players of the Wildcats, then at the players of George Mason University, and said, "The Wildcats played very well this season, and their strength is not weak. I hope we can win."

"Don't worry, we will win," said another player.

At this time, players from both sides played.

Seeing the starting lineup of the Wildcats, a fan gasped in surprise and shouted, "I thought that No. 1 (Meng Yun) would start. It is said that he is very good, but he is not the starter."

"He was not a starter in the first place. As for his strength, it was mostly blown out in the newspapers. Otherwise, who would know who he is?"

"Yes."

Even here, many people know about Meng Yun. It can be seen that the influence of "Charlotte Daily" is indeed not small, and Meng Yun's reputation has spread.

Of course, many people are skeptical about his strength, even if it is reported that in the two games after the winter break, Meng Yun averaged 18 points and 6.5 assists per game.

"beep"

The whistle blew and the game officially started.

First the jump ball, Patrick struggled for the ball, but still lost to Anthony Mallory, George Mason got the ball and started to attack.

Charles Brown was very fast, he was in the frontcourt in a blink of an eye, and immediately passed the ball to Leo Cairns.

Seeing this scene, Meng Yun couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and thought: "It seems that Leo Cairns is not bragging. He should have improved a lot in the past month or so, and his status in the team has improved a bit."

Originally, George Mason University’s regular style of play was to give priority to Anthony Mallory when the ball reached the frontcourt, but now it is directly given to Leo Keynes, which shows that his teammates and coaches trust him and believe that he can handle it well. The ability of the ball, that's why he gave the ball to him at the first time.
