Chapter 424: The Legend of School History
"Eddie, come here! I'm looking for you to do something~"
Chen Mu called, Eddie House showed off the ring halfway (in fact, no one paid attention to him for a long time, everyone was chatting with friends who hadn't seen him for a long time, and House was as transparent as air on the side), hearing this shout, he immediately made a dog-legged look, ran over with a fart, and said: "Uncle for a while, what do you command??" ”
"Don't make a fuss, let's be serious~"
Chen Mu smiled, stretched out his hand and put his hand on House's shoulder and said, "You graduated from Arizona State University, right?" ”
"I have the blood of the Sun Demon in my veins!" Hearing this, House suddenly turned serious, and reached out to beat his chest, looking very proud.
When you talk about your alma mater, most people have such an expression, right?
Especially if you have left a brilliant legacy in this school.
"This is my ...... Eh, I'm confused by you......" Chen Mu almost made a mistake, and when he saw Xiao Niziqiao's face blushing and lowering her head, she hurriedly changed her words: "This is my good friend, your junior sister." ”
"Haha, I know, I know." House smiled and shook Su Yin's hand in a friendly manner.
"Yin'er, if you have any troubles, tell Eddie, at Arizona State University, there is nothing he can't do." Chen Mu dragged over the two chairs with a smile, and sat on the side of the "family area" with House, quietly waiting for Su Yin's words.
Eddie...... House?
Also Arizona State University?
Although Su Yin has been paying attention to the NBA for a long time, he has only reluctantly and passively paid attention to it because his father likes it.
Now that he has concerns, Su Yin's understanding of the NBA can definitely be regarded as a true fan, and now the hot spots in the league, the technical ability characteristics of the players, the differences in the strength, skills and tactics of different teams, etc., Su Yin can say one, two, three, four.
But new fans. Naturally, I don't know much about history.
Eddie House, who is also a small role in the NBA, is basically a three-point shooter and a surprise soldier no matter what team he is on, and he has not made any great moves in his career.
Whether it's the stats, the performance on the pitch, the right to speak in the dressing room, or the understanding of technique and tactics, the performance of key games, etc., House has nothing to offer. Although it is still the year of fighting. But for such a typical fringe player, Su Yin really doesn't know much about it.
Besides, even fans who know the NBA better may not be able to tell the NCAA career of most stars. After all, the NCAA is a sporting event that everyone is crazy about, and which team has how many stars, where they are now, and whether they have made a name for themselves in the NBA are all things that fans like to discuss.
But outside of the United States. There are really few fans who know about the college careers of the stars.
Su Yin is in the United States, but he was not a real fan before, let alone Eddie House. Su Yin doesn't know the NCAA careers of most of the players in this room.
Eddie House, is Arizona State a player?
Su Yin really didn't have an impression.
In fact, at Arizona State University, their team, the Suns, is not a super powerhouse. There are not many results, and the fans of this school naturally support them unconditionally, but since they are not a strong team. The heat can't be compared to a team like Duke North Carolina.
The most intuitive example is that among Arizona State University's varsity team, there are very few players who have played in the NBA who can be counted on one hand.
Who is the most famous NBA player in Suns history with the Suns?
Well, he hasn't entered the league at this time, and is currently playing for the Suns Devils, scoring one of the best records in the team's history, averaging 17.8 points per game and contributing a division-high 73 steals and a three-point shooter - James Harden.
That's right, Harden in the NCAA period was a defensive giant.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, not only during the NCAA period, but also in the first few years of entering the NBA, Harden, who was also the sixth man in the Thunder, was once the best ball-handler defender on the team.
Who has Harden defended?
Is LeBron enough? Is Kobe enough?
Here's another little piece of information that everyone likes to hear: a year later, in the 2008-2009 NCAA season, Harden averaged 7.6 free throws per game, making him the free throw leader in the PAC-10 division......
In such a team, although Su Yin joined the school's basketball club, he did not carefully understand the history of the school's team. It's just that I roughly know that there is a very good first-year rookie on the Suns Demon team, wearing the No. 13 jersey, and everyone says that he can lead the team to overtake the sworn enemy University of Arizona and become a powerhouse in the PAC-10 division......
As for Eddie House? Su Yin really didn't pay attention.
In fact, as long as Su Yin takes a little time, walks into the training center of the school's Sun Demon team, and comes to the legendary star corridor to take a look, he can immediately see the photo of this stinky little man defender with a stingy face.
Yes, Eddie House, is the greatest player in the history of Arizona State University.
That's right, you read that right, the greatest.
This small defender, who is only 1.85 meters, is Mike Jordan in the history of Arizona State University.
In 1996, Eddie House entered Arizona State University, where his quick and precise shooting style made him a leading figure for the Suns. But in less than 30 minutes in the first year, the average of 12.6 points per game was not outstanding, and in the second year, it even dropped slightly to an average of 11.3 points per game, but many people thought that Eddie House's NCAA career might be like this, there would be no further development, and it would never be possible to enter the NBA in the future.
But in the third year, House began to erupt.
Averaging 18.9 points per game in 37 minutes and shooting nearly 39 percent from three-point range, the stats don't show what Eddie House means to the Suns.
On that team, Eddie House was everything to the Suns.
On the defensive end, he averaged more than two steals per game, but his height of 1.85 meters averaged nearly five rebounds per game, and almost all the balls on the offensive end had to be handled by House, and the team's overall strength was weak. This allows the opponent to defend against House with impunity. In such a difficult situation, House made explosive progress and became the most surprising dark horse in the PAC-10 region for a while.
However, the football critics at the time were still not optimistic about House, he was too small, too weak, the NBA is not a college game, there are many beasts, the world's top basketball players are there, House? It's going to be a loser.
Then the senior season. House is a god.
With playing almost the same amount of minutes per game and the year before, House's average per game became 23 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists, and House became the PAC-10 Player of the Year. Throughout the NCAA season, he won four Player of the Week awards and was named to the PAC-10 All-NBA Team, making him the brightest superstar in the PAC-10 region.
And that's not all, House scored a total of 2,044 points for the Suns in four years, the first in school history, and the only player in Suns history to score more than 2,000 points for the team.
His number of shots. The number of steals is a record in school history, and after the madness of his senior season, people saw in him the shadow of a superstar who was once produced in the PAC-10 region - Gary Payton.
He averaged 23 points per game. Records of the history of the school.
74 steals in a single season, second on the school history steal list.
In four college seasons, he averaged double-digit points per game, one of only three in school history.
Wait a minute. It's not over yet.
House scored over 30 points in eight of the 32 games he played in his senior season, and brothers familiar with the NCAA should know how scary it really is.
Among the 8 30+ matches. There are 4 times when it is 40+, which is not only recorded in the history of the school, but also in the history of the PAC-10 League.
Against UCLA, House scored 40 points.
Against Payne State, House scored 42 points.
Against San Diego State University, House scored 46 points.
In another game, at the University of California, Berkeley, the Suns and the opponent Golden Bears played two overtimes, and finally the Suns won 111-108 in the away game.
Eddie House's high school, Hayward, not far from UC Berkeley, scored 61 points on 18-of-19 free throws from the free-throw line in a fierce game against his hometown.
Of course, the school history records.
If there had been an Internet, if there had been more fans, if there had been more communication, if there had been more live streaming of this classic game in the history of the NCAA, if it had not happened on January 8, 2000, but after 2008......
It is impossible to imagine what a terrible sensation House's performance will create.
By the way, 61 points in a single game is also the record of the PAC-10 league, but it is the same score and shares the first.
Who is the other person who got this awesome data?
His name is Lou Alcindor and he is a centre-forward.
Oh yes, his better known name is Abdul-Jabbar.
That's right, Abdul-Jabbar is also a player who came out of the PAC-10 division and eventually became the NBA's all-time scoring leader.
With such a comparison, if you look back at the series of data about House's scoring records just listed, will you have a deeper feeling......?
The legend of school history stood in front of Su Yin, but Xiao Nizi didn't realize it.
Such Eddie House, as long as it is a matter of Arizona State University, what is there that he can't put on the table?
“…… So too much for a player's girlfriend?? Or a substitute for the Suns? What a shame for Mrs. Mrs. ......! ”
Su Yin briefly talked about what happened in the 76ers and Pistons series, and House tilted his nose angrily when he heard it, and glanced back at Chen Mudao: "You say, how do you get that kid named Pete??" You can say it, I can do it! ”
"It's not elegant to get it at every turn, as long as he makes a detour when he sees Chinese in the future." Chen Mu smiled.
"Hmm...... I have an idea......"
House had a lot of ideas, and before Chen Mu could continue, he whispered in the ears of the two of them with a wicked smile on his face for a long time, and the people on the side couldn't hear what he said. (To be continued.) )
PS: Speaking of which, everyone is familiar with who is the biggest star that the Sun Demon has ever produced!
