Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 227 Establishing the "Kentucky Gang"?
Jenny Buss certainly hopes that the buyers and sellers will never reach an agreement, so that the transaction will be stranded, February will pass quickly, and the transaction will have to wait until next summer.

At that time, it is not certain who the Lakers will be in power. She has already launched a plan to seize power, and the good show will be staged at the end of the season.

Unlike Jenny Buss, Scott has a much stronger bond with players, so it's not easy to be reassured.

Scott has been very tormented these days. Every time he faces the players, he struggles because he doesn't know who will suddenly disappear from the Lakers roster before the next game.

Jenny Buss very solemnly asked him to manage his emotions well. This is a quality that a mature head coach must have. If he messes up first, the team will definitely fall apart.

So before the game against the Jazz, what Yuan Qingshan saw was an unusually calm Scott, an obviously abnormal Scott.

However, Yuan Qingshan didn't ask any more questions. He had already had a conversation with the coach in the parking lot that night. In order to avoid affecting him, the coach probably wouldn't disclose any news. So, he just had to wait quietly for the way ahead. After all, he still doesn't have the ability to decide his own destiny.

Yuan Qingshan spent another afternoon practicing three-pointers in the training hall, but he still failed to trigger Klay Thompson's "KT Three-pointer Master" skill.

He asked Kidd for advice, and Kidd also had no idea, he could only guess that this type of skill might not be used until actual combat.

It makes sense for Yuan Qingshan to think about it. Klay Thompson is the most powerful savior riding alone. He broke out in a desperate situation, and the more the team is in danger, the more he can stand up.

In the evening, he drove to Manhattan Beach alone again, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the waves were rustling.

He laid the seat flat and lay quietly in the car, recalling the details of his walk from the University of Kentucky, with a lot of emotion.

If it wasn't for the super evolutionary system, I'm only a sophomore now, so I guess I should just stay in the apartment and play ranked with my classmates at this time.

Maybe I will meet NBA superstar Hayward, and maybe I will spray him a few words because of the headwind.

And tomorrow, I will compete with him under the gaze of tens of thousands of people.

It's interesting to think about something like fate!

The car didn't turn off, and the warm wind was blowing. After a while, Yuan Qingshan fell asleep like this. After an unknown period of time, a phone ringing woke him up.

Yuan Qingshan rubbed his eyes without looking at the phone screen, and directly pressed the answer button.

"Big star Yuan Qingshan, are you okay?" A slightly hoarse voice came.

Yuan Qingshan trembled all over: "Hey, Coach John, is that you?"

"It's only been a few months. Have you even forgotten my voice? It seems that I haven't reprimanded you enough, so I don't have a deep impression on you."

On the other end of the phone was Yuan Qingshan's first teacher, John Calipari, head coach of the University of Kentucky Wildcats.

Yuan Qingshan heard the coach's nostalgic voice again, and it really seemed like a lifetime ago. Coincidentally, he was still missing his college days just now, when Coach John's call came in.

"Stop kidding me, Coach, how are you doing?"

Coach John said with a smile: "What can I do? The school has recruited another batch of kids, but to tell you the truth, this class is incomparable to yours. There is only one kid named Jamal Murray who is not bad."

"It's their blessing to get your advice." Yuan Qingshan's words seemed to be flattering, but in fact, he really thought in his heart. Without Coach John, let alone him, even Towns would not have achieved what he is today.

There was a hearty laugh from the other end of the phone: "Look, we've dragged the topic away. I know you're busy now, so I'll make a long story short. Someone called me this morning and asked if I could trade you over."

What he said stunned Yuan Qingshan, why would he ask his college coach if he could be traded for himself?

Coach John continued: "I'll stop playing charades with you. It's your senior Cousins. He thinks the Kings are rotten. He wants to know your wishes through me. If you agree to join the Kings, he will try his best to persuade the uniform team to trade you to Sacramento."

So it turned out that senior Cousins ​​was embarrassed to call himself, so he asked Coach John to go. After all, he rejected Cousins ​​once before joining the NBA.

The current record of the Kings is indeed not good, no, they are almost at the bottom of the Western Conference.

The team's No. [-] positions are Rajon Rondo and Darren Collison. Cousins ​​must have no problems getting along with his senior Rondo, who also came from Kentucky. It is estimated that the problem lies with Collison. This guy is not a traditional point guard. He is a complete ball stopper. A big man like Cousins ​​can only run back and forth with him.

"Shouldn't the team's starting point guard be Senior Rondo?" Yuan Qingshan wondered.

Coach John replied: "Yes, Rondo is the starting No. [-], Cousins ​​is the No. [-] starting position, and Caulistan is the No. [-]. These are all my students. Oh, it's getting too far, and I want to trade you. It's actually Rondo's intention. The three of them are dissatisfied with the other players of the Kings. They want you to serve as a substitute for Rondo and build the Kentucky Gang."

"I'm going to serve as a substitute for Senior Rondo, and then establish the Kentucky Gang?" Yuan Qingshan repeated in surprise.

Coach John: "This is their idea. First serve as Rondo's substitute, and then squeeze Collison away. After that, you and Rondo will form a backcourt. Rondo and Cousins ​​​​are worried that you will not be willing to be a substitute, so I want me to chat with you to see what you think."

If Yuan Qingshan was just an ordinary rookie at the end of the first round, he might have agreed, and it sounds good to go to a weak team and play with three starting alumni.

But Yuan Qingshan is the owner of the super evolution system. His goal is to win the O'Brien Cup in the shortest possible time, and then become a historical superstar, making his own mark in the history of human basketball.

So of course Yuan Qingshan could not agree to establish the inexplicable "Kentucky Gang", and because of this naive reason, he would lose his starting status and serve as a substitute for others.

However, out of politeness and privacy, Yuan Qingshan couldn’t tell Coach John about the above reasons directly. He could only politely refuse, saying that he was accompanied by Downs in Los Angeles, and the team’s record was stable and progressing.

Coach John knew what Yuan Qingshan meant, so he didn't get too entangled in this matter, and hung up the phone after saying some advice.

In fact, he had known for a long time that Yuan Qingshan could not agree to be the king's substitute, and he had already explained this to Cousins ​​before.

The reason why he still made this call was because he wanted to know more about Yuan Qingshan's current situation. If there was no reasonable reason, Old John was a little embarrassed to disturb Yuan Qingshan, so he pushed Cousins ​​to the front because of his arrogance.

The result made him very satisfied, Yuan Qingshan was doing well, and his spirit was as high as before, so he really did not misunderstand the person.
