NBA: No. 1 Forward

Although Lian Dao was a little disappointed because he didn\'t get Griffin\'s all-talent template, it\'s good to get his upper limit of physical talent, which is one of the talents he needs most at present. Griffin\'s upper limit of physical talent also belongs to the A+ level in the NBA.

Of course, Griffin\'s physical strength has not yet reached the A+ level. His current physical fitness has just reached the A level. The upper limit represents Griffin\'s potential. Now he has not fully tapped his physical potential.

Griffin\'s upper limit of physical talent has reached 89 points, just one point away from reaching the S level. This is already remarkable. Excluding the few physical monsters in the NBA, Griffin\'s physical ceiling can rank among the top 20 in the NBA.

Ranking in the top 20 among the 450 or so active NBA players is pretty telling.

"Congratulations to the host, you have drawn the upper limit of Blake Griffin\'s physical talent. Do you want to equip it now?"

"equipment"

As the voice fell, the physical talent in the column of physical value changed to: 64 (89).

Flying back to USC, the next four games were held at the Galen Center, the home of USC, and they all won.

On Monday, December 15th, against the Pepperdine Waves, at 91:77, Southern California\'s home court Galen Center clocked in for 30 minutes and won by a big score.

On Saturday, December 20th, against the North Dakota Bison, 61:57, won by four points. The USC team had no touch in the first three quarters, but due to the iron-blooded defense inside and outside, the score has not been opened by the opponent , Until the fourth quarter, Lian Dao and DeRozan\'s touch picked up, and they took the game away in the last wave.

On Monday, December 22, against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, a 76-57 win, the only shots Georgia Tech could take were their shooting guard Iman Shumpert and forward Gary Laver you.

The former was selected by the New York Knicks with the 17th overall pick in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft; the latter was selected by the Phoenix Suns with the 46th overall pick in the second round of the 2010 NBA Draft.

As a freshman this year, Shumpert was directly crushed by DeRozan in terms of talent, and he was a little suspicious of being hit by DeRozan in the whole game. Shumpert did not bring much to the team in this game. With the help of the team, the gap in overall strength made USC win the game without bloodshed.

On Sunday, December 28, the third day after Christmas, USC won easily at home against the Olar Roberts Golden Eagles at Galen Center, 66:56.

So far, USC has won all 12 preseason games.

There are also many strong teams like: Missouri State University, Oklahoma University and so on.

This is the best result USC has achieved in the preseason in recent years. This result also gave USC basketball fans hope. This made many USC students turn their attention to the Trojans.

And the other nine universities in the Park Ten League also exclaimed: Wolves are coming!

Before the start of the Parker Ten regular season, ESPN released the NCAA08-09 season strength rankings.

USC was ranked 19th. The evaluation given by ESPN is; the joining of DeRozan and the rise of Lian Dao have minimized the impact of senior graduates leaving school, but the strength of the center position is still weak, and the team relies too much on the outside and mid-range Shooting, which relies too much on the shooting feel. Three of the team\'s main players are freshmen this year (Vucevic becomes the starting center), and they will lack game experience.

The first place is Michael Jordan\'s alma mater North Carolina. After losing in the semifinals of the National Championship last season, all their main players chose to stay in school. This year\'s comeback is bound to be even stronger. The senior center Taylor Hansbrough and 1.96 meter small forward Danny Green; junior 6.93 shooting guard Wayne Ellington and 1.80 point guard Ty Lawson.

Lian Dao felt his scalp tingling when he saw these four people. Their existence guaranteed the lower limit of the University of North Carolina. Three of these four people were selected in the first round of the 2009 draft. Danny Green He was selected 46th overall by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round.

Although the 2.03-meter power forward Dean Thompson in the junior year participated in the draft in 2010 because he was too old, but his strength is still not much. He started 38 games last season and averaged 8.4 points per game. , 4.8 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and a shooting percentage of 48.1%, which is quite good.

The key is that this season they recruited 2.08m power forward Ed Davis and 2.13m center Taylor Zeller to join, which made North Carolina\'s bench lineup unprecedentedly strong. This is the effect of famous basketball schools, and there will never be a shortage of basketball talents who come here especially for their names.

The second place is another traditional basketball school: Duke Blue Devils, they also retained the lineup from last season, Gerald Henderson, Kyle Singler, Nolan Smith, Lance Thomas and Jon · Sheyer\'s stay in school ensures the overall strength of the Duke Blue Devils.

This year they also recruited good high school players in 1.93 meters shooting guard Elliott Williams and 2.08 meters forward Miles Plumlee. This allows Duke University to not only retain its original strength, but also strengthen its bench lineup.

And the rival University of Southern California, which also belongs to the Parker Ten League, ranked third. The University of Southern California and the University of California, Los Angeles are both in sunny Southern California, but the history of mutual battles is not a day or two. Since the Victory Bell incident in 1941, they have had a feud with the University of Southern California.

Whether it\'s rugby hand-to-hand combat, campus life, enrollment, or basketball, you must compete for superiority.

Of course, in terms of basketball, USC has been lagging behind, and the university is a traditional NCAA basketball school.

Their head star is Darren Collison. In the 06-07 season, Collison became the school team\'s starting point guard, and the player who played him as a substitute was Russell Westbrook. 07-08 season. Collison once again led his team to the final four of the NCAA tournament last season. University of Memphis.

This also made Darren Collison very unwilling. In the end, he chose to stay in school instead of participating in the draft with Westbrook. Darren Collison\'s retention also set the stage for a comeback.

And this year they recruited the 2008 best point guard genius high school student Zhu Holiday and the McDonald\'s high school All-American point guard Malcolm Lee~www.mtlnovel.com~ These two genius high schools With the addition of Raw and the presence of Darren Collison, this season\'s guard line has made up for the shortcomings of Russell Westbrook after participating in the draft to a certain extent.

Also a member of the Parker Ten League, USC and University will play against each other twice in the regular season, once at home and away, and they will likely play again after entering the playoffs.

Although ESPN highly praised the university, Lian Dao knew that this season\'s strength had definitely declined seriously. Although Holiday and Malcolm were excellent, they could never replace Westbrook. Game experience was the first thing they had to experience. one off.

On top of that, Kevin Love and Luke Richard Mbah a Moute enter the draft, making the college\'s interior weaker than ever before, with Alfred Aboja and Nikola Dragovic as replacements. Not Love and Mbah a Moute.

…

Fourteenth place: Michigan State University, this is the sufferer of USC in the previous life, and USC was defeated by him in the previous life; in fact, a large part of the failure in the previous life was because the University of Southern California underestimated the enemy. Michigan State University is the biggest dark horse this season. Their strength has been far underestimated. ESPN only saw the hard strength of the players, but ignored their team\'s champion coach.

The Spartans don\'t have a particularly gifted player, and if there are, it\'s Draymond Green, who just joined the Spartans this year as a freshman and ranks fourth in USA TODAY\'s All-American High School Rankings Be one.

But he was still in the stage of constant leveling during his freshman year, and the help he brought to the Spartans mainly came from the bench plastic surgery.

One name that cannot be mentioned without mentioning the Spartans is: Tom Izzo.
