Chapter 93 094: Rookie Challenge

094: Rookie Challenge

Denver, where it was raining the night before, suddenly cleared up today, and the sun climbed into the sky early. Maybe God doesn't want the rainy weather to affect the NBA's All-Star Weekend!
"The weather is nice today!" Getting up from the bed, Qin Tao opened the curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows and exclaimed.

Tian Yu got up from the bed, stretched, and said, "Today's weather is good, it won't affect us to watch the All-Stars!"

Wearing pajamas, Tian Yu got up without hesitation, staring at Qin Tao in a daze.With a flushed face and large expanses of fair skin exposed, Qin Tao involuntarily licked his lips. "Huh! I'm thinking bad thoughts again. People have said that I will go back to Los Angeles, and there are only two single beds here." Tian Yu wrinkled her nose and pretended to be angry.Qin Tao found that the current Tian Yu gave people an innocent feeling of a little girl.

"Still having bad thoughts." Tian Yu got off the bed, ran up to Qin Tao and stepped on his foot.

"Ahh!!!!" Qin Tao fell down on the bed reflexively, covering his feet with his hands.It seemed... really painful. "It hurts, it hurts...Xiao Yu, you kicked too hard!"

Tian Yu was taken aback by Qin Tao's appearance, and hurried to Qin Tao's side, saying, "Are you okay! It's all my fault, I tried too hard."

An evil light flashed in Qin Tao's eyes, and he suddenly let go of his hands covering his feet and hugged Tian Yu. "Haha! My little beauty, I lied to you!"

"Hmph, I'm just trying to cheat people. I don't care about you." Tian Yu said while beating Qin Tao's chest with her pink fist. "I don't feel it at all." Qin Tao teased.Tian Yu's face was flushed, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes, which made him beat harder.

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts." Qin Tao yelled again like a ghost.

The anger in Tian Yu's eyes completely disappeared, and she pouted and said, "Hmph! You are afraid of pain when people work hard! It's boring."

"Okay! My little beauty can hang a bottle of oil on her mouth." Qin Tao let go of his hands and said, "Hurry up! It will be too late, we have to go to the Pepsi Center to watch the rookie competition!"

"Humph!"

……

Today, Qin Tao is still wearing his signature equipment. In black, he pulls Tian Yu, who is wearing a pink down jacket, to appear in the Pepsi Center.

It was already 09:30 when Qin Tao and the others arrived at the Pepsi Center, and the reporters on the scene all focused their attention on the players' lounge.None of them noticed that the head coach of the Lakers who has been in the limelight recently has come.Qin Tao is also like a thief, leading Tian Yu to hide from the reporters and arrive at their reserved seats.

Qin Tao and Tian Yu found a side seat and sat down.Qin Tao said relaxedly: "Even if we come to feel the atmosphere first, the All-Star Game the day after tomorrow is the time to watch their performance."

"Well! I know, but there seem to be many fun games in the square outside!" Tian Yu said with a smile on his face.

"It's okay! Let's go out to play after the game." Qin Tao pointed to the court and said, "Look, today's opening performance is simply rubbish. The opening performance of the All-Star Game the day after tomorrow will be like singing It will be the same, and there will be more than one famous singer invited."

"I already know!" Tian Yu interrupted Qin Tao impatiently, because the scene was too noisy, and they had to talk very close to the test center, which she found troublesome.Qin Tao could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, and patiently watched the next live performance.

……

In the rookie challenge, the second-year team led by LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, and Chris Boss faced the first-year team led by Dwight Howard. The essence of the 03 generation gathered together, known as the generation with the most potential in the United States, comparable to the 82 draft lineup.

James, Wade, Anthony, as soon as the three came up, they crazily attacked the inside of the first-year team led by Howard.

"Ouch! My God! These three people have completely exploded in Denver. James dunks in the windmill, Wade goes around the ball and turns around and dunks..." The on-site commentator exclaimed again and again, indicating that today's stage in Denver This is the solo performance of Generation Zero Three.Although, this was an exhibition game, and even though there were many mistakes in the game, the second-year team still maintained a lead of about eight points throughout the game.

When the game ended, the second-year team won without any suspense. Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets, a second-year rookie who can be regarded as half of the host, won the MVP of the rookie game.His performance in this game was even better than the No. 03 pick in [-], and he deservedly won the MVP.

"Let's go! It's boring, the next awards ceremony is nothing to watch." Qin Tao said to Tian Yurou.

"Yeah!" Tian Yu obediently responded, and the two squeezed their way through the frantically shouting fans and walked outside the Pepsi Center.

The two came to the square in front of the Pepsi Center, and there were many stalls regularly lined up on the playground. "Tao, it seems fun over there!" Tian Yu shouted excitedly.

"Yeah!" Qin Tao pulled Tian Yu to a booth.This is a shooting machine. It costs five dollars to shoot once. If you hit five consecutive shots, you will get an All-Star jersey.Get ten in a row and get an All-Star doll.Hit thirty in a row to get an All-Star sneaker.If you hit [-] shots in a row, you will get a simulation doll with the same height as the star.

This kind of game mode is not uncommon in all major parks in China. Qin Tao can't help but feel yearning for his hometown on the other side of the ocean. 'I really want to go back and have a look! '

"Tao, go up and have fun! You are a basketball coach, you shouldn't be bad at shooting!" Tian Yu looked at Qin Tao innocently, with urgent hope in his pure eyes.She wants to see the man she loves perform in front of everyone, because until now no one has been able to hit fifty consecutive shots and take away the simulation doll that is the same height as the star.

"Okay." Qin Tao nodded, the owner of this very shooting machine is a Chinese.Even if he has nostalgia for his hometown, he still wants to go up and try it. It turns out that he has never taken advantage of this kind of game in any park in China.This time he is really a little sure, it is not a regret! "We used to go out to play in China, and we often encountered this kind of game. I always wanted to get a doll for you, but I never succeeded. This time, I will definitely help you get that simulation doll back." Qin Tao said something to Tian Yu very softly, then took five yuan from his pocket and gave it to the boss.

The Chinese boss casually gave Qin Tao a basketball, and patted the ball twice to test the feel.Qin Tao stood in front of the machine, set up a standard shooting posture facing the basket, and shot. "Bang!" The ball hit the basket's neck.Qin Tao frowned, and the onlookers started booing one by one.

'This is also boo! 'Qin Tao is helpless!But the booing was much smaller than the booing in the usual arena. "Tao, can you do it?" Tian Yu asked with concern, not because he didn't believe Qin Tao, but because the boos around him were very harsh.

Qin Tao felt underestimated by Tian Yu, and made a wrong shot in front of his lover, what a shame!He frowned and said, "I'm wearing a shirt, it's too tight." He took off the windbreaker, unbuttoned the cuffs and collar of the shirt, and gave the boss another five yuan.

"Boy, stop trying to be brave."

"That's right, that basket has definitely been tampered with, and it won't go in unless it's hollow."

"That's right, that's right. It's too difficult to cast five empty shots in a row."

Not paying attention to the words of the onlookers around him, Qin Tao's heart completely calmed down...
