Chapter 277 Rejection
Lu Yuan was excited at the beginning, he thought he had achieved a great feat, but after a few rounds he realized that it wasn't that he was too good, but that his teammates were too weak.

The gap is mainly reflected in physical fitness. It is ridiculous that Lu Yuan, the Asian who is considered to be the worst in physical fitness in the United States, is the fastest runner and the highest jumper in Wilson High School's basketball team.

There are three black players in the team. One is the black center Ed Limbard, who is black and thin, with long arms. Noelle is a fat black man wearing a headband. He has to rest for a while after running for two steps. His shooting is quite accurate, but it is really impossible to not run the whole court; the other is the little Lucia who wears glasses and braces Nuo Malinka, who is less than 1 meters tall, is also a freshman in high school. He plays point guard and has a bad dribble, but he is too short and too thin, so he has no resistance at all.

The rest are all ordinary white players, including the backup power forward Fatty Farmar. Lu Yuan is like a rabbit on Turtle Island among this group of people. As long as Lu Yuan runs with the ball, almost no one can keep up with him.

Obviously, this team is really an interest group. There must be very little physical fitness and confrontation exercises in the usual training. In addition, the talents of the players are too average. Some players with strong talents are born with outstanding running and jumping abilities, while They obviously don't.Not every black has super speed and bounce.

After playing for 10 minutes, the game was unplayable. Lu Yuan's speed was too fast. The starting team even started to foul him to prevent Lu Yuan from attacking with the ball.

Therefore, Hart had to blow the whistle to suspend the game. He knew that Lu Yuan had obviously undergone professional basketball training and had a strong personal talent, which was not comparable to the patchwork soft-legged shrimps from Wilson High School.

After the game was suspended, Hart called Lu Yuan aside and said, "You played well, kid."

Lu Yuan wiped his sweat, and after 10 minutes of typing, he felt a little hot just now, and he didn't enjoy himself yet. He understood Hart's praise, smiled and said, "Uh, so-so, so-so. I'm very happy to be able to join Wilson High school basketball team."

Lu Yuan really didn't know what to say, so he said the simplest sentence.

However, Hart didn't seem happy about getting such a good player. He added: "You don't belong here, boy. I won't let you join the basketball team."

"What?" Lu Yuan wondered if he had heard it wrong, as if the coach said that he would not be allowed to join the basketball team, could it be that his grammatical understanding was reversed?

"I won't let you join the basketball team."

Hart emphasized it word by word, then looked at Lu Yuan, and added: "You are very good, too good, we are not suitable for you. You can consider playing football, you will be an excellent running back .”

Hart asked Lu Yuan to play "Football". Lu Yuan thought it was football, and quickly shook his head, saying, "I don't know how to play football. Football hurts my feet."

Lu Yuan played football once when he was a child. On the edge of the playground, a ball rolled over. The people on the field helped him to kick it back, but when Lu Yuan kicked it, the ball flew over and broke his toenail. I dare not play football anymore.

It’s better to play basketball, it’s safer, although occasionally I will get poked with a finger and eat a dried radish, but it will be fine soon, and it won’t hurt as much as a broken toenail.

However, no matter what Lu Yuan said, Hart said that he would not let Lu Yuan join the basketball team. He only said that if he wanted to come and play, he could come and play, but he would not be allowed to participate in training and competitions.

The rest of the basketball team couldn't understand Hart's approach. They felt that it was hard for a good guy to come. It didn't matter if he was black, white or Chinese, as long as he could play.

As a result, Hart yelled at everyone to go to training, and then drove Lu Yuan out of the gymnasium. Lu Yuan could only put on his clothes, put on his schoolbag, and then watched Hart slam the door of the gymnasium shut.

Lu Yuan scratched his head, not feeling very depressed, not because he didn't want to join the basketball team, or because he didn't think Wilson High School's basketball team was interesting, but because he was convinced that one day, he would definitely be able to come back.

With this kind of self-confidence, Lu Yuan sorted out his mood and prepared to go around the campus, because he found that the campus life in the United States seemed to be very different from that in China.

Among other things, not having classes after two o'clock in the afternoon is simply not too cool, let alone no late self-study at night.

But like this, Lu Yuan felt a little unaccustomed, it was only past three o'clock, if he didn't participate in club activities, he could go home.

Lu Yuan walked to the school's big playground, where the football team practiced. He saw a group of people wearing light blue jerseys and helmets training on the playground.

Some people ran, and some rushed towards the human target, like bison, all of them were tall and strong, fully armed, Lu Yuan was terrified when he saw it, it turned out that this was a football, if the impact would dent his breastbone.

"I wouldn't be able to play this kind of sport even if I was killed, but Dano is quite suitable, as long as he stands there, he will be like a wall."

Lu Yuan was watching intently from the sidelines, but he did not expect that someone in the football team had noticed him, that is the team's quarterback Romero Morales, he was wearing a helmet, Lu Yuan obviously did not recognize him .

When it was time for the team to practice, Morales came to the sidelines with a few teammates. Only then did Lu Yuan realize that the leader was the chestnut-haired one who had clashed with him in the cafeteria.

Lu Yuan knew that the visitor was not kind, but he was not afraid at all, he would just run away, he was still wearing basketball shoes.

Morales walked up to Lu Yuan, and seeing the boy's expressionless face, he knew he was not a man to be bullied, but Morales still couldn't swallow his breath, so he decided to provoke and tease Lu Yuan, and said, "Boy , want to join the football team? Are you new here?"

After hearing this, Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "No, I'm not interested in this ball."

Lu Yuan didn't know how to say rugby, and he didn't know that football is rugby in the United States, so it became "this ball" in his mouth.

The most popular football in Wilson High School, which once won the California Championship in 1970, became "this ball" in Lu Yuan's mouth, and the players of several football teams were a little angry.

At this time, the coach of the rugby team - a thick black man shouted at Morales and the others: "What are you doing! Come back to training!"

Morales yelled: "There's a kid on the football team! We're welcoming him!"

The black burly man heard this, and walked to the sidelines, and then saw Lu Yuan standing on the sidelines of the playground with his waist tucked in, carrying a schoolbag, with a dazed expression on his face.

The black coach looked at Lu Yuan and said, "Do you want to join the cheerleading team?" Everyone in Morales laughed. Lu Yuan understood this sentence, and he frowned and replied, "I don't want to join your team." team, because you guys are so bad."

The coach of the rugby team is Michael Porter. Porter couldn't help laughing when he heard the Asian boy, and said: "If you can run 40 yards in 5 seconds, I admit that you are not a waste, otherwise you are a waste Say we suck, and I won't admit it."

Morales laughed happily. Obviously, Coach Porter successfully humiliated the kid, and it seemed that he had no ability to fight back.

Lu Yuan understood the words "run" and "waste", and probably understood what the coach meant, so he put down his schoolbag, took off his coat, and said, "I can do it."

Anyway, he didn't know what Potter asked him to do. He felt that as long as it was related to running, he could do it.

Potter looked at Lu Yuan again, nodded slightly, and said, "OK, if you think you can do it, then try it, maybe I can consider letting you join the football team instead of the cheerleading team."

Saying that, Potter brought Lu Yuan to the plastic track, because Lu Yuan didn't wear spikes and couldn't run on the grass, so the plastic track was fair.

Potter used two wooden stakes to set a certain distance, exactly 40 yards, and then stood at the other end and shouted to Lu Yuan: "40 yards! If you need to warm up, I will allow you to run a lap first, and then start from the northwest of the playground. Slip in the direction."

The rest of the football team gathered around, not knowing what happened, and saw an Asian face wearing a basketball team and basketball uniform, standing on the track, as if about to run forty yards.

"Hey!! Come on, come on, kid!"

No matter what happened, people started to boo anyway, and Morales stood aside nervously, seeing Lu Yuan standing on the running track so confidently, maybe he really can run.

Just now in the gymnasium, Lu Yuan has gone through a full warm-up, his muscles have been activated, his ligaments have been stretched, and he is in the best state of exercise.

He stood in front of the starting stake, and a team member acted as the starter. With a wave of his hand, Lu Yuan rushed out like an arrow off the string. Starting on the spot is Lu Yuan's advantage!

40 yards, converted into meters is more than 30 meters, a distance that can be covered in a few seconds, Lu Yuanfeng generally skipped in front of Porter, Potter immediately pressed the stopwatch, looked down at the numbers, his face suddenly became a little dignified .

"What a fuck..."

After finishing the run, Lu Yuan walked up to Potter and asked, "OK, tell me the result, so that I can refuse you."

Potter looked at the stopwatch again. It was 4 seconds, and he ran without spikes. Even if there was an error in manual timing, this is still a terrifying speed for high school students.

You know, on the Wilson football team, few people can run under 5 seconds, and even the best running back on the team only occasionally runs under 5 seconds.

Only those superstars who can enter the NFL in the future have the ability to reach the level of 4 seconds, and this kid...

Potter looked at him and asked, "Do you want to join the football team?"

"NO!"

Lu Yuan was just waiting for this sentence, and after rejecting it, he walked away happily, thinking that my basketball team has not been found yet, and he is still playing football with you.
