I'm really not a brush in basketball

Chapter 50 050. Farewell to Meng Da (recommended)

Back in Memphis, the Tigers triumphed, the president of the University of Memphis presided over the welcome ceremony, John Cariapa showed his loyalty, and by the way, a wave of promotion and salary increase was included.

The principal of Mengda’s expression was a bit distraught, because John Cariapa’s salary is already at the T1 level among college coaches, and it is the highest in the United States.

In fact, John Cariapa switched to Kentucky within a few years and did sign a T0-level contract, and he used his strength to prove that the "Admissions King" was worth the price.

"It's a shame that Derek didn't come back with us." Joey Dorsey felt that he was the king of the night in Mengda!

The big black cow who was not cared about at first received 4 phone numbers and 2 kisses in the blink of an eye, as if he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

"Damn it, I shouldn't have given up the entire forest for a big tree." CD Roberts was clinging to his little girlfriend and had no chance of flirting.

Muyu center Robert Dozier, who was a junior, was booked by a beautiful senior sister. Although Dozier missed the NBA, at least he was accompanied by a beautiful woman.

Antonio Anderson decided to fight John Cariapa for another year. Anderson's goal changed from defeating Chen Long to hitting the 2009 lottery pick.

Of course, the brightest star of all is Chen Long.

"We will retire Chen Long's No. 24 jersey, and at the same time permanently keep Chen Long's locker and mascot doll outfit!"

The words of the principal of Meng University made people realize that it only took two months for Chen Long to transform from an ordinary Chinese student and the mascot of the Tigers to the Chinese dragon who dominates the NCAA arena.

Chen Long gave a brief thank you speech and hid in the most familiar training hall alone.

Looking at the unpacked baskets in the corner of the floor, he tidied up the scattered basketballs.

"Legends should enjoy the fruits of victory, not hide here and do miscellaneous work." John Cariapa's words reached Chen Long's ears.

Chen Long kicked a basketball to Cariapa, and the two sat on the basketball facing each other.

"Aaron, am I dreaming?" Kariapa asked.

"Coach?" "Call me John," Kaliapa replied.

Chen Long raised the corner of his mouth and joked "ruthlessly", "John, if you enter the NBA to coach and lead the team to win the championship, believe me, it is a dream!"

"Who says I can't bring an NBA team, please, I just don't want to fly around and play so many away games, I'm a family man..."

At the end, Cariapa's cheeks flushed as if he had drunk too much vodka, and asked instead, "Aaron, are you sure you want to go to the NBA?"

Chen Long nodded silently, because going to the NBA meant the end of his mentorship with John Cariapa.

"Damn, I really shouldn't give you so much playing time, remember, one time you got a triple-double in the first half, I put Rose on the bench to make you continue to hit a triple-double in the second half, God, I seem to be It is the behind-the-scenes hero who made you into the NBA..."

At this moment, John Cariapa and Chen Long are like a pair of old friends who ridicule each other.

Chen Long nodded again, then reached out to Cariapa and said, "John, if one day you change your mind and want to coach an NBA team, come to me!"

Cariapa froze for a moment, then raised his head and laughed, and fell from the basketball to the floor with a plop. The famous NCAA coach laughed and burst into tears.

"John?" "Aaron, you must become a basketball superstar!" Cariapa turned over and sat up, holding Chen Long's hand firmly and said.

"You don't need to tell me, I will do it." While speaking, Chen Long's eyes were firm and bright.

John Cariapa felt as if he had returned to the day when he faced Chen Long for the first time in the hospital corridor. At that time, he knew that this kid would become a legend!

After tidying up the messy basketballs, Chen Long walked out of the training hall in a baggy basketball uniform, leaving coach Kariapa in a daze in the arena.

Without Chen Long, Derrick Rose, CD Roberts and Joey Dorsey, John Cariappa knows that next season will be tough for the Tigers.

But in life, he is fortunate to be able to coach a legend like Chen Long, and Carlyapa still said to himself in his heart, "John Carlyapa, you are a lucky man!"

A new lock was added to Chen Long's university dormitory, along with a 'No Trespassing' sign.

Because this room lived in Chen Long and Derrick Rose, two future NBA superstars, this is where the legend began.

The 2007-08 NBA regular season has come to an end.

During the days back in Memphis, Chen Long hadn't spoken to Liang Zi yet.

"Liangzi, do you have time? Fly with me to Los Angeles." Chen Long asked on the phone.

"Los Angeles?" Murong Liang was dumbfounded by the question, because a place like Los Angeles exuding an extravagant atmosphere does not go well with a person like Chen Long who pursues his dreams with all his heart.

"I want to see someone." Chen Long replied.

"Yes, yes, but you have to ask for leave for me and the old man. I am now the fourth-class chef of Zhonghua Noodle King." Murong Liang said proudly.

Chen Long just let out an oh, and Murong Liang quickly changed his words, "My brother Long, you are going to Los Angeles to have fun, do you have the nerve to let brother wash the dishes in the kitchen?"

"It's so embarrassing." Chen Long said with a smile.

"Come on, let's go to Los Angeles to play, brother treat, you don't know how much money I won in the two games of Final 4, a small hundred thousand dollars, the Tigers are so awesome!" Murong Liang put all his small coffers Overwhelmed the Tigers to win, two bets, fivefold.

"Smart, why didn't I think of buying a lottery ticket?" Chen Long felt that he had missed a hundred million.

"Hey, Brother Long, as long as you give the old man a word, let me accompany you to Los Angeles. There are first-class cabins, five-star hotels, champagne and beautiful women. Are you interested?"

"These are not important, I want a front-row seat ticket for the final game of the regular season of the Lakers." Chen Long said quietly.

Murong Liang let out an exclamation of sudden realization, "It turns out that Brother Long wants to chase stars, who do you like, Kobe, Dajia? No, it must be Kobe!"

"..." Hearing Kobe's name, Chen Long fell into a brief silence.

Murong Liang could hear Chen Long's heavy breathing, and wondered if I said something wrong?
"Okay, I'll go to the noodle shop to tell the old man about it tonight."

"Brother Long, I'll feed you tonight, uh, no, this time I'll feed you with my own hands!" "Emmmm, what was it before?"

When Murong Liang was asked by Chen Long, he was so embarrassed that he scratched his feet.

The waitress next to him showed a rotten expression looking at Renji again.

That night, Chen Long did not eat high-carb pasta, but ate a nutritious athlete's meal that was mainly meat, supplemented by vegetables and dietary fiber and coarse grains.

Murong Liang once felt that he was abandoned by Chen Long, but when he thought that Chen Long was the man who wanted to be the king of basketball, there was nothing wrong with restricting himself from diet.

Early the next morning, Chen Long and Murong Liang boarded the flight from Memphis to Los Angeles.

Goal: The regular-season finale between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Sacramento Kings.

As Komi, Chen Long thought to himself, "Kobe, I'm here."
