I want to be a superstar.

Chapter 23 This is a storm!

"Is this really a game between Duke University and the University of Washington? Did I come to the wrong place?"

Before the start of this year's NCAA tournament, Duke University was the strongest powerhouse, while the University of Washington was the weakest.

CBS's preseason review of all NCAA teams didn't even include the University of Washington!

Before the game between Duke and the University of Washington, many Duke fans were quite dissatisfied with the game.

It would be a waste for the team to play their first game against the University of Washington; the University of Washington doesn't deserve to be their first opponent!

What they want to see is Duke University's first game against UConn, because only UConn can truly test Duke University this year.

With Rudy Gay, Hilton Armstrong, Josh Boone, and Marcus Williams leading the UConn team, it was considered the second strongest team in the NCAA.

A team led by four players with first-round or even lottery prospects is no less powerful than Duke.

If Duke University were to be completely dominated by UConn in this game, it would be unacceptable, but it would also be somewhat understandable.

But what kind of company is the University of Washington?!

What kind of person is Yes?!

And what kind of guy is that slightly chubby Brandon Roy, who even has a double chin?!

31 to 14, and the first half of the game, which is only 20 minutes long, is just over halfway through!

The powerful Duke University trailed the University of Washington by 17 points on their home court!

The team's leader, Redick, was completely dominated by the opposing team's number nine player, the Chinese-American youngster, Yes!

Redick couldn't shake off Yes's defense on the defensive end, and he couldn't keep up with Yes on the offensive end either!

Yes kept scoring over Redick's head using Redick's signature moves!

If we disregard the pre-game comparison of their reputations, based solely on this game, Yes is the NCAA's number one player.

Redick should be the one who remains unknown!

The team lost by such a large margin before halftime, so it couldn't just be Redick who got blown out.

Lee Melchiorni, the team's second-best perimeter player and LeBron James's high school rival, has also been exposed.

Although Melcioni no longer possesses the talent he had in high school, he is still a player with second-round potential.

Facing Brandon Roy, who is also a second-round prospect, Melcioni's performance was as if he were facing Kobe Bryant.

They were completely crushed on both offense and defense!

The reason Yes was able to create so many open opportunities was because Roy's one-on-one threat was too great.

Not only did they blow up Melcioni, they also managed to tie down a lot of Duke's defense.

Duke University's two key outside scorers were outmatched one-on-one, and the other three starters weren't necessarily better than expected.

Josh McRoberts is the top high school player this year.

And he couldn't even beat Bobby Jones, a seasoned senior from the University of Washington!

Is this the top high school student of the year?

When did the top high school student in the US become so bad?

Last year, the top high school player in the nation was Dwight Howard, the year before that it was LeBron James, and before that it was Amar'e Stoudemire.

The next undisputed number one high school player has already been determined: Greg Oden, the Great.

These people, if not one-handedly defeating Bobby Jones, at least wouldn't be in such a close and evenly matched situation, right?

Because Redick was effectively neutralized by Yes, Duke University's passing and cutting game was completely disrupted.

In the end, Duke could only resort to his basketball instincts and play one-on-one!

Duke University, whose players were all very strong before the game, had their individual abilities exposed at the start of the one-on-one matches!

Aside from Sheldon Williams, the top pick in the draft, who can outmaneuver Brockman, a freshman at the University of Washington, no one else has any advantage!

"With just over half the game gone, Coach K has already called three timeouts. He's very anxious right now; the current situation at Duke University is both perplexing and infuriating!"

"Coach K hoped Duke could play with their usual composure, but they weren't as strong as expected; the University of Washington actually played with more composure!"

"This current pace puts the University of Washington at ease, while making Duke University feel awkward!"

"I really like the University of Washington's #9 Yes and #3 Brandon Roy. Yes's shooting is decisive and beautiful, every shot is so fluid, as if he wants to stay in the air a little longer. As for Brandon Roy, his skills are so comprehensive. He reminds me of the Lakers' Black Mamba, no, he's a Black Mamba who prefers to pass the ball!"

"Perhaps, in this game, the University of Washington will burst many, many beautiful bubbles!"

Redick had no idea how surprised and bewildered the CBS commentators were.

But he knew that if the game continued at this pace, he would be mired in trouble!

He didn't want to enter the NBA as a mid-first-round draft pick.

He doesn't think he's any worse than his arch-rival Chris Paul!

If that shorty can get into the top ranks of the lottery, why can't he?!

Chris Paul's skills make his height negligible.

My shooting can also make my race disregarded!

Damn Chinese, not only are they not as physically gifted as black people, but they're even worse than Asians!

Redick had already imagined what it would be like to lose to this guy in front of him!

He won't even have a chance to finish in the middle of the first round!

He is not willing!

Once again, unwilling to give up, he met Ye Si's forceful attack and once again missed!

"Redick's mentality is off; he missed his sixth shot!"

"Roy has grabbed another rebound, and the familiar fast break mode is back in action!"

When Yes and Roy connected again, the Duke University fans on the sidelines gasped in amazement.

Because Yes stopped outside the three-point line again!

"Another fast break three-pointer!"

"Yes still opted for a fast break three-pointer!"

"This time, Yes paused for a moment. Was he choosing when to strike?!"

44...64...78...

78!

He's been playing exceptionally well tonight, showing a lot of skill!

For the first time, Yes abandoned the principle of always shooting when he had a 60% feel for the ball.

In this game, he felt that he could raise the minimum standard for his shooting touch even higher!

A touch rating of 78, and it's a shot taken with no one defending or interfering!

That ball can go in!

Seeing that familiar arc once again, Redick, who had already rushed to the basket, looked at the trajectory of the falling basketball with a hint of despair on his face.

With a swish, the basketball went through the net!

"Unbelievable! Yes hits another three-pointer on a fast break! The lead has widened to twenty points!"

"This was an incredible game. For the first time in NCAA history, a player like Yes has run fast breaks like this. He turned the impossible into possible!"

Romar's plan for this match was to use Redick to hone Yes's skills.

Tell Yes not to play like Redick. No matter how well he plays that way, he'll just be another Redick.

"I suddenly think that Yes plays pretty well this way!"

Yes and Redick are completely different!

Before halftime, the team, led by Yes and Roy, was leading Duke University by almost 20 points on the road!

Romar never even dreamed of this!

Many people were surprised by how the game turned out, including Coach K, the top coach in the NCAA, who was on the sidelines.

He never imagined his team would be defeated in this way!

Yes's relentless counterattacks and three-pointers demonstrated an terrifying ability to widen the gap!

It seemed to be one wave after another!

He called a timeout when they were only down by eight points, and when he called a timeout a second timeout, they were down by 12 points.

After the third timeout, the point difference was becoming unbearable!

Even if they were overrated before, and weren't the strongest team, they were still a strong team!

When did the top teams in the NCAA become so weak?!

The game continues, and the massacre continues in front of Duke University fans!

Contrary to pre-game predictions, the University of Washington is now slaughtering Duke University!

58 is better than 29!

This is the score at halftime between the University of Washington and Duke University!

"Duke University is about to be swallowed up by the storm stirred up by Yes!"
