Chapter 43: Rickard's Luck

After watching that movie with Catherine, the tense atmosphere of the game spread again. Finally, the two of them made some progress, but now as the game day approached, Anjie had to be unable to go out for several days. Rental houses, classrooms, gymnasiums, and rental houses. In the past two days, Anjie's life has been infinitely circulating between these three points. The disappearance for several consecutive days also made Catherine unable to understand the big boy's feelings.

Ricard's first opponent made him feel that he was really "lucky". Although the Tornado finally won, he didn't want to play so excitingly every round.

Fortunately, when the name of the second opponent of the Crazy March Championship surfaced, Ricard made a big sigh.

St. Mary's University, compared to those scary names, this opponent Ricard is still acceptable. Of course, capsizing in the gutter is a thing of every round in the March Crazy Championship. Ricard doesn't want his whirlwind team to fall into the gutter as soon as it appears.

Even if the opponent is not strong, the players still dare not relax. In the series of games where the winners and losses are determined, anything is possible.

When the game started, the players of the Tornado team were all glad that they had a good attitude and did not look down on their opponents. Because St. Mary's University was not afraid of defeating the Tornado team that defeated Stanford University, they launched a fierce attack from the second.

However, after experiencing the training with Stanford, the Tornado seemed to have a strong team momentum. Although the score could not be widened in the first half, the Tornado players still controlled the rhythm on the court well and played the Tornado basketball. On the contrary, St. Mary's University, most of the time, they were led by the Tornado.

However, March Crazy is really the arena for college players to become famous. St. Mary's Australian point guard Patty Mills seized the opportunity to shine.

As a foreign player who came to the United States to play for the first time like Angel, Mills was not at all inferior when facing the experienced Mike Taylor. Instead, Taylor had a headache by Mills' sharp attack.

However, Ricard only allowed Mills to dazzling for half the game. After re-customizing the defensive strategy in the second half, Mills was very uncomfortable by the overall defense of the Tornados, and St. Mary's fierce offense finally stopped.

Ricard could come up with a way to limit Mills, but the head coach of St. Mary University would not be able to think of a way to limit Angel. After continuing his strong performance in the last game, Angel's move was still stable in this game. Whether on the offensive or defensive end, Paul Philips always had a chance to praise Angel.

In the end, the Tornado broke the fantasy of St. Mary's University's next round with its stable swing. Mills scored 24 points and 6 assists in the whole game, but this was not enough to lead the team to win.

63 to 75, the Iowa State University Tornado team defeated the opponent neatly and took another big step forward with the identity of a dark horse.

Anjie scored 6 points and 3 rebounds in this game, and scored 7 assists. In this game, Calder did not rely too much on Anjie, but defeated his opponent with the help of the overall cooperation of the Tornado team.

Although this game was won, the impact was far from comparable to the victory of the previous game. After the game came to the top 32, the exciting duel became more. The game between the Tornado and St. Mary's University, which had a clear gap in strength, obviously did not attract much attention. With sparse reporters and few reports, the Tornado entered the sweet yi6 range with a low-key attitude.

After entering the Sweet Yix6, the celebration party held by Iowa State University for the Tornado team also came as scheduled. However, facing the senior school leaders in the school in suits and ties, the Tornado team could not play. The party eventually turned into a very formal dinner party, with the players sitting at the dining table in a regular manner, and they didn't even dare to do the eating look too ugly.

The busy An Jie did not forget the restaurant that made him linger. He took a night out and went to sit there. The bearded man clearly showed that the kid and his daughter would never quarrel when they met again. Their eyes were also full of ambiguity. Judging from the bearded man’s life experience for so many years, something was going to happen!

"Sweet 16, I really didn't expect it at the beginning." The bearded man said and sat next to An Jie.

"This name is really appropriate. The whole team was happy when they advanced." An Jie recalled the feeling after the victory. Even if the opponent was not strong, the joy was still wonderful.

"I think you are not just sweet for this matter." The bearded man meditated in his heart.

"Hey, do you know why I cook Chinese food?" Suddenly, the bearded man changed the subject.

"Yes, I was very curious when I came here on the first day. The Chinese food you cook is very authentic, and people who have never lived in China will definitely not be able to make it." An Jie was also interested in this topic.

"I disappointed you. I really haven't lived in China, and I haven't even been to China."

"What!?" An Jie was stunned when he heard this. How could this be possible?

"The reason I can cook Chinese food is because Catherine's mother is from China." At this point, the bearded man's eyes became a little dull.

An Jie was so surprised that he couldn't speak. No wonder Catherine had some Asian characteristics on her face. An Jie thought it was an illusion caused by her psychological effects, but now it seems that things are indeed not simple.

Seeing that Anjie did not respond, the bearded man continued to speak on his own. "I met Catherine's mother in New York. On the stage of a bar, the woman sang completely attracted me. When I was young, I was much crazy than you. In order to watch her performance, I went to that bar every day. Once, at the instigation of my friend, I rushed to the stage to sing with her. After that, we finally exchanged the phone numbers of each other."

"After I was with her for a long time, I was reluctant to leave her. Her Chinese food was delicious, and I was just a little talent in cooking. We discussed opening a small Chinese restaurant in another place, then getting married and having children... So, I learned all my Chinese food from her."

"However, my family strongly opposed me marrying this Chinese girl of unknown origin. They said that if I dared to marry that woman, they would cut off all their contacts with me. I knew that my family just wanted to scare me to let me give up this relationship, and then just find an American girl with a good family to live a stable life. But what they didn't expect was that I proposed to her the next day and never returned to New York since then." The bearded man poured himself a glass of wine and asked An Jie to fill him up again.

"After moving to Ames, our lives were very happy. Our business was not good, but we didn't have to worry about survival. Soon after, Catherine came to this world. But maybe God punished me for abandoning my family. When Catherine was only 6 years old, her mother died of a traffic accident. Unexpectedly, in this city that claims to be the best security in the United States, we would lose our loved ones due to traffic accidents." The bearded man found himself a little out of control and immediately controlled his emotions and prepared to make key points.

"So, Katherine is my relative now, and it is my wealth. You said, if any boy treats her in the future, can I spare him?"

"No, of course not!" An Jie replied firmly. This bearded man had something to say.

Another Chinese man, after seeing his daughter, he was about to repeat his old path. After drinking the last bit of wine in the cup, his mood suddenly became much more relaxed.

................

Ricard has formulated yi5 sets of different tactics for different yi5 teams in his tactical manual, with fewer opponents and more targeted arrangements available. However, although he is ready, he still doesn't want to meet a few opponents.

But there is an old saying in China that comes with whatever you are afraid of, Ricard's "good luck" is back. After continuing with Stanford, the Tornado team met with another Pacific 10th League team, and this opponent also defeated Stanford and won the regular season championship. Yes, bsp;                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

The greatest center in history, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, the greatest star in the history of the Trail Blazers Bill Walton, Pacers legendary star Reggie Miller, bearded captain Byron Davis, and Twall Ariza, who is now making his mark in the Los Angeles Lakers... The stars who graduated from UCLa have been counted until the next morning.

This year, UCLa's lineup is even stronger, Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, Darren Collison, Cameroon Prince Bamot, UCLa's four big kings led the team to a big victory this year, and it seems that they are waiting to meet the University of Memphis led by Derek Ross to meet in the final.

"Damn, I really should buy this lottery. Maybe I can go to nBa's team to be a shareholder in the evening." Ricard really admired his luck. He encountered all the strong teams.

However, after complaining, you still have to fight when you encounter it. If you are a person, you have shortcomings, and if you are a team, you have loopholes. Apart from research and training, the Tornado team has no other choice.
