I'm really not a brush in basketball

Chapter 8 008. Play the main force with a substitute (please recommend)
"Lead the second team to defeat the first team, coach, are you kidding me?" Rose was angry because he felt that Kariapa was deliberately embarrassing Chen Long!

College teams don't have rotations or bench rosters like NBA teams do.

The strength of the main force and the substitute is the difference between a quasi-professional player with a basketball scholarship and a fan of playing tickets.

The Memphis Tigers' substitutes are veterans or newcomers who can't handle the task. With Chen Long, can they beat the undefeated team with the strongest record in the NCAA?What a dream!

Calliapa pointed to Rose's nose and said, "Stop challenging my patience."

The college coach holds the lifeblood of the students, that is the scholarship. Once the school cuts off Rose's full basketball scholarship, this 'heartbeat' will owe tens of thousands of dollars in tuition fees to the university, and finally roll back to his slum in despair.

NCAA players have no salary, no sponsorship, and live on scholarships. Rose is well aware of this, but he still wants to fight for Chen Long.

But as soon as Ross opened his mouth, Chen Long stopped him.

"Coach, the first team won the second team by 40 points in the training last time. Do you think I can fill the 40-point gap by myself?" Chen Long asked back.

Kaliapa suddenly noticed that Chen Long had jumped ten centimeters, and his expression was a little restless.

"However, I still thank you for giving me the chance." Chen Long's eyes were firm, and it could be seen how eager he was to win and play.

Cariapa wanted to take back his words a little bit, because unless the first team released the water, it was absolutely impossible for the second team to win.

"I only need one starter to win a team." Chen Long stretched out a finger.

Kaliapa couldn't help but laugh.

Ross also showed a puzzled expression.

"Are you serious?" Cariapa asked again.

Chen Long nodded heavily.

"Except for Rose and Roberts, you can choose whatever you want." Cariapa's trump card is the backcourt twin stars, and it is impossible for the other three starters to Chen Long.

"Thank you, I'm going to rest for a while, Liangzi, let's go!" Chen Long grabbed Murong Liang's shoulders, and then leaned on him to support his body and slowly walked out of Kaliapa and Rose's sight.

"Coach, don't challenge my patience either!" Ross pouted and narrowed his eyes like an angry calf.

Kaliapa has never been threatened by his own players. He is furious, but he can't do anything, because the worst result is that Rose transfers and joins another university to become an opponent of the Tigers.

Ross turned and left, thinking to himself, "Aaron knows that I will never release water, does he really want to win us with the second team?"

As a coach, Cariapa stayed in the hospital to help Chen Long solve the mess.

The biggest characteristic of young people's bodies is their vigorous energy. As long as there is no functional damage to the muscles, bones and joints, they can basically recover overnight.

Eating nutritious broth and high-carb noodles, Chen Long felt alive again.

Mr. Murong and Murong Liang watched Chen Long feasting.

The three of them didn't say a word. The atmosphere at the table today was very different from usual.

Chen Long didn't have a drop of soup or cake left, and finally leaned back in his chair and burped.

"Are you full?" the old man asked with concern.

"I'm full." Chen Long replied with a smile.

"If you dare to act like this in the future, come here to eat!" The old man coldly chopped his cane, and it was obvious that he was really angry.

Chen Long had no choice but to apologize with a wry smile, and promised not to be like this in the future.

Liangzi's expression was not good. He didn't want to see his brother being humiliated. He returned to the room and shouted, "Your manager said you were sick, and the coach doesn't want to see you so much. Why do we have to play basketball?"

"Liangzi, men can be defeated, but they cannot admit defeat!" Chen Long rubbed his arm muscles and found that they had basically returned to normal.

"I know you are not reconciled, why, you can really lead the second team to win the first team? Neither Rose nor Roberts is a fuel-efficient lamp." Murong Liang sat next to Chen Long depressed. He couldn't believe it. The day before yesterday Chen Long, who is still working as a mascot, can defeat the Tigers' twin stars.

"I'm sure." Chen Long turned over and lay on the floor, and began to do muscle recovery training with his head depressed. This is also a habit he left behind after undergoing surgery for the torn cruciate ligament.

Murong Liang found out that his brother was stunned by playing basketball, and said aggrievedly, "Don't forget, you can't be a basketball star, but we can still be kings in front of each other!"

Hearing Chen Long hum, Liangzi slammed the door and left the room.

The next day, Chen Long jogged to the gymnasium of the University of Memphis.

Rose was not happy to see that Chen Long had fully recovered, because today's game determined Chen Long's basketball career.

Calliapa had already sent a mass text message to all the players on the Tigers.

Even the substitute players of the Tigers doubted Chen Long's strength, not to mention the other four starters, they were eagerly preparing to abuse the second team again!
"Aaron wants to play the main force, so who will be the mascot?" Anderson, the swingman of the front guard, mocked.

"Maybe he wants to play in a doll costume," power forward Desai echoed.

Tigers defensive center Joey Dorsey kept quiet about it.

Because the last time Joey spoke confidently was when the division said in the finals last year that Oden was overrated. He could grab 20 rebounds from him, and then there was no more. He didn't get a single point in the game. Oden blows up.

Standing in front of the substitute players, Chen Long looked at these guys with no fighting spirit, just like looking at the community college basketball players he coached back then.

Kariapa walked into the field humming, followed by Cui Wanjun and manager Tiger with an OK bandage on his nose.

"Did everyone see my text?" Kaliapa asked.

Everyone nodded, and their eyes all fell on Chen Long.

"Chen Long, don't you want to pick a starter, go ahead." Cariapa chewed the bubble gum, not taking the game seriously for a while.

Chen Long walked up to the five starters.

Of course it doesn't include Ross and Roberts.

The former was expressionless, while the latter raised his eyebrows to watch the excitement.

Chen Long walked up to Anderson, and Anderson leaned into his ear and whispered provocatively, "Isn't it good to be your own mascot?"

Chen Long immediately responded with a smile, "Enjoy your last game as a starter."

"..." Anderson frowned and stepped back.

Desai also showed the expression that you must never choose me.

Chen Long shook his head at him, then pointed at center Joey Dorsey, "I'll decide it's you, Joey Dorsey!"

Joey spread his hands helplessly, thinking to himself, "I'm a defensive center, and I'm good at grabbing rebounds. Who will score for the second team?"

Chen Long patted his strong shoulder and said, "You will be in charge of rebounding in a while, and I will be in charge of scoring. Believe me, we can win!"

Joey smiled and said nothing.

Cariapa still didn't think that the lineup of Chen Long and Joey could beat the Tigers' four main players, so he turned to Cui Wanjun and said, "Cui, you lead the second team."

Cui Wanjun reluctantly picked up the tactical board, thinking that the last 40-point tragedy was still vivid in his mind, would it be any different if there were more Chen Long and Joey today?

Three fringe players stepped onto the field as referees.

"If you dare to release water, I will kill you!" Chen Long said to Ross.

Rose nodded, and after the two of them bumped their arms and hugged each other, they stood on both sides of the court.

At this time, the training match that will determine Chen Long's fate officially begins!
　It’s been a year since I left, and the bleak data of the new book is also within my expectation, but I have confidence in this book, and I still hope that friends who think this book can be read will vote for it, please.
