Card Bishop of Basketball

Chapter 24 Trash Dog

Meng Yifan welcomed Teacher Ma's arrival with both hands. After Teacher Ma signed the one-year teaching assistant contract, Meng Yifan couldn't wait to give Richardson's star card to Teacher Ma.

I took Mr. Ma to the arena, only to find another guy I didn't know, yelling in the arena, and every time a newcomer made a mistake in running, he would be slammed by him.

After chatting for a while, I learned that this guy is a well-known player in Washington State, named Jerome Williams. This gentleman is 2 meters tall and serves as a power forward. He is nicknamed Trash Dog and is also a passionate player.

That's right, this guy is also a player from Georgetown University. Due to a wave of injuries last season, the school team's lineup was incomplete. When Meng Yifan crossed over, he happened to catch up with the team being full of injured players, but this time It also gave Iverson a chance to show off his talents.

Now Meng Yifan can be regarded as having a happy trouble. Last season, the team had only a handful of people available, and they couldn't even make up a reliable starting lineup. As a result, the team has so many powerful players now. However, how to allocate playing time has become a problem.

The team's two senior inside players, one Jerome Williams and the other Mark Pope, no matter what, they still have to be given playing time. Otherwise, if the lack of playing time affects the draft pick, then But it’s a sin.

It is necessary to estimate the data of senior insiders and cultivate two freshman insiders, but the insiders are already crowded with talents, and there are countless outsiders who can impact the NBA.

Meng Yifan expressed his admiration for those senior time travelers who directly won more than a dozen All-Star players... Scheduling the playing time, how to lure players to college, these are all skills...

And there is another problem. None of the team's four serious insiders have reliable offensive capabilities. Strictly speaking, Jamison is a combo forward who can play both small forwards and big forwards. , directly handed him over to Mr. Ma.

Iverson and the others were still thinking in their hearts that the coach would find a yellow man to take them, and they might not be freeing them. As a result, Ma Jian directly dunked in a big windmill, which refreshed their understanding of Ma Jian.

In the team training match, this time it is even better. The red side is Iverson Ma Jian, with two senior insiders and one Tucker Haney. Meng Yifan doesn't care about the position, anyway, here is two gods and three pits .

Compared with the blue team, the lineup is much more balanced. George, who has received the Jack God pass control skill package, plays point guard, Raja plays shooting guard, Harprin small forward, Jamison power forward, center Foyle, both offensive and defensive. .

Because it is a team training game, there is no such thing as a jump ball. When the coin is tossed, heads come up, and the blue team kicks off first.

Meng Yifan was lying on the sidelines watching the game. Neither side had deployed tactics. The players had 5 minutes to discuss, and what they could do depended entirely on their own performance.

You said there is no referee?Camille said that since the boss of Iverson came, we have more and more skills, from towel dancing to washing clothes, from cleaning the floor to repairing the basket, and now whistled on the sidelines. What the heck, everything else will do.

George pushed forward with the ball. Facing Iverson's harassment and drawing out the ball, George did not panic. Instead, he made a pick-and-roll with Raja, and the defender in front of him was replaced by Tucker Haney.

Ma Jian played his favorite small forward position, and the other two stayed in their comfort zones and didn't want to move. Tucker, who has ADHD, was thrown to the shooting guard position by a few big brothers. Anyway, Laga never had the ball. Running, Tucker is as sticky as candy, no problem.

Facing Tucker, who was a head taller than himself, George made a fake move and flew Tucker directly. As an old teammate for so long, George is still very clear about Tucker's problems.

When he got near the free throw line, Ma Jian came to defend him, and George threw the ball to Harperin. Unexpectedly, although Ma Jian looked muscular, his body was very flexible, and his arms were relaxed, and he directly broke the ball. .

Tucker, an ADHD patient, controlled the ball and handed it to Iverson. Iverson also started the pick-and-roll with the ball.

Facing the two big long arms of Foyle and Jamison, Iverson pulled the bar elegantly and spun the ball directly into the basket. The ball can be passed, but it is unnecessary, because he wants to stand up in front of these little guys.

A difficult goal made Foyle and Jamieson clearly realize that their senior is not just a vain name, but a truly powerful offensive firepower.

The blue team organized an attack again. George used Raja's pick-and-roll and then shot a cold arrow. Tucker was reprimanded by Williams for jumping around in the last round. This round was like a wooden man, watching George's shot blankly.

Although the timing of the ball was good, George had been participating in Haiye's special training plan during this period. He had just equipped himself with Haiye's gift two days ago, and his strength could not adapt to it for a while. The ball hit the back edge of the basket hard and bounced. out of the box.

There was a scuffle at the basket. Originally, the two of Jamison looked at the inside line of the original team with a contemptuous attitude. As a result, Williams, the garbage dog, went straight to the physical strength. Jamison staggered, and then realized that he was not fighting against the easy high school league. up.

Foyle is tall, big and wide, like a big gibbon. He took off the rebound, but he was rough on the inside. He didn't dare to attack by himself with the ball. He hesitated and handed the ball to Jamison. inside.

Faced with the garbage dog's constant push and trash talk harassment, Jamison turned around and hooked. He practiced this position countless times and had already formed muscle memory. Small disturbances basically had no effect on him.

The basketball fell steadily into the Nets, and two points were recorded. Jamison told the seniors with his actions that he, as a potential high school student who is famous all over the United States, is not a vegetarian.

After changing sides, Iverson broke through and passed the ball to Ma Jian on the outside. Because they were all shocked by Ma Jian's dunk just now, they subconsciously shrank inside and waited to block the shot. As a result, Ma Jian was also able to embroider. The whole point of work, facing George directly with a three-pointer, is also a clean net.

George was more or less aggrieved. As the team's starting shooting guard last year, he was treated as a defensive weakness. After coach Meng's special training, he successfully changed from a defensive loophole to a player who can't attack and defend. Live pitch black hole.

If Meng Yifan knew George's heartfelt feelings, he would definitely yell for injustice. George was a purely thin catcher and shooter last season. There has been a big change. It’s normal to not find the hand feeling when you first start playing games.

Halprin wants to play Ma Jian in singles. As one of the core players in singles last season, he has won the true biography of Meng Yifan, and he is confident that he will lose the draft in singles.

However, if it was a day ago, Ma Jian, who did not get the blessing of the star card, might really be pushed away by the little bully Harprin. Ma Jian, who is now blessed with the star card, is like a mountain. There is no downside to the confrontation.

Halprin was more or less skeptical about life at this time. Didn’t it mean that people of the yellow race generally lack physical fitness? How come I met this guy and couldn’t stand it for a long time. Could it be that I have played rugby for nothing for so many years?
Turning around and missing a strong shot, Foyle grabbed the rebound again, feinted Pegasus Pope, Foyle directly pulled the green onion on the dry ground, dunked with both hands, and creaked the basket.

The two sides drew again, but Meng Yifan frowned. The blue team had four starters, how did they fight like this? Raja was invisible all the way, and the little tank Harprin didn't charge up to fight, but insisted on being static and slow. Slow singles, what the hell are you playing.
