king of the basket

Chapter 4 Hope!

That night.

Purdue University Basketball.

The sound of thumping basketballs hitting the floor, the "Boilermen" team is practicing.

on the bench,

Du Qi sat there quietly, sweating a lot.

He just finished half-court sideways sprinting and full-court continuous leapfrog practice.

Called up my own golden finger to check in my mind, it was something similar to a computer screen:
"Lingbo Weibu of Tianlong Babu System, Level: LV2 (1).
Duration 2 minutes. "

Of course, only he, the traveler, could see this golden finger.

"The number in the brackets changed from 0 to 1... It's really slow."

Increasing this number is to continue to exercise, consume one's physical strength, and increase one's physical fitness.

This point, when this golden finger was upgraded from LV1 to LV2, Du Qi had already researched and understood it.

"In the NCAA regular season, there is no shortage of super talents like University of Mississippi Thomas!"

Du Qi wiped his sweat with the soft towel draped over his shoulders, thinking to himself:

"I have to put in [-]% effort!"

at this time.

Center Cam came over after finishing the one-on-one shooting training. Seeing Du Qi was in a daze, he sat down on Du Qi's right hand:

"Du, what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking about how I can lead you 'black charcoal' to the NCAA tournament and win the championship!"

"Heitan?"

Du Qi is the word [black charcoal] in Chinese.

Cam has never studied Chinese, so he doesn't understand the meaning.

"Uh...don't worry about these details. Cam, I have [-]% confidence that I can lead you to win the NCAA championship!"

"Hey Du, you're inflating yourself again."

Cam grinned, showing his trademark white teeth, "But seeing your seriousness, I appreciate you very much,
Very confident temperament of my Cam! "

"..."

Duke rolled his eyes at him.

"I thought you were sulking here because of Thomas, a super rookie from the University of Mississippi."

Cam grinned again.

"He looks down on people, so we just hit him until he thinks up on us."

"Not bad!"

Duke said.

He still remembers Thomas laughing at himself.

……

"Thomas, the top ten super genius among NCAA players! He is one of the best ace players in NCAA!"

"And he's still a freshman!"

"It's a super rookie!"

"His level has already reached the quasi-NBA level!"

"..."

In the locker room after the game against Mississippi, Duke was still listening to his teammates talking about Thomas.

To them, it seems that...

It was only right that he, Du Qi, was looked down upon and looked down upon by Thomas.

Duke knows,

It's pointless to argue with your mouth.

The best slap in the face is to knock Thomas down when you meet the Mississippi team!
Everyone will shut up!
"Thomas...hehe!"

Duke never cared about Thomas from the bottom of his heart. His goal is to dominate the NBA!

"This look...as if he is the number one player in the basketball world, so firm and confident."

Seeing that Du Qi's eyes became very different, Cam's heart trembled slightly.

Thoughts flooded.

He blinked his eyes, and suddenly said seriously to Du Qi:
"Hey Du, I think I have to say it again, I'm going to be the one to lead everyone to the NCAA championship!"

"..."

Cam suddenly stood up from the bench, and shouted to all the players as his captain:

“Everyone cheer up and go all out!

We want to win the championship!
From now on, everyone should increase their practice!do you understand? "

All the players looked sideways at him.

Thought I heard it wrong.

But when they saw Cam's eyes full of fighting spirit, they couldn't help being shocked!
……

late at night.

In the basketball department.

Only Du Qi was left.

One shot after another.

beyond the three-point line,

midfielder,

rub the edge of the basket,

And slam dunk!

"The 908th ball..."

"The fifth..."

...

"913..."

Bang, bang, bang!
Where Du Qi passed, sweat fell, and it was extraordinarily bright under the illumination of the arena lights.

……

at this time.

Coach Painter walked to the entrance of the basketball department unknowingly.

To be precise,

I came to see Du Qi who was practicing hard.

Although he only saw Du Qi practicing hard in the basketball team by chance, his intuition told him that Du Qi's efforts should be persistent.

"He is indeed there."

Painter in casual clothes didn't intend to disturb Du Qi, he walked in through the concealed door, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket and threw it into his mouth,

Chew and taste slowly,
While chewing, he watched Duke take the trouble to shoot one after another.

"The fifth..."

Bang!
Three points hit the iron!

Did not enter.

He finished shooting the ball in the basket, so he had to bend down to pick it up.

It was at this time that he discovered the existence of coach Painter.

slap!

Du Qi suddenly found that someone appeared quietly, he was startled, and a ball he just picked up rolled to the ground and made a sound.

"Hey Du, did that startle you?"

"No."

Du Qi said no, but his body was very honest.

He turned around, turned his back to Painter and couldn't help taking a deep breath, cursing inwardly:
"Damn, when did this old coach come here? He's like a ghost. He almost scared me to pee!"

……

Painter bent down to help pick up the ball and asked Duke:

"You've taken 920 shots?"

"Yes. There are still 80 balls to complete today's goal."

"Practice 1000 shots every night?"

Duke nodded.

Painter was still taken aback.

he thought,
Duke's hard work, that is, the number of 500 shots.

but didn't think...

Duke is the hardest working basketball player he has ever seen.

"Coach, why are you here?"

Hearing Du Qi's question, Painter recovered from his surprise. He looked at Du Qi with a slight smile and said:

"Because of hope."

"hope?"

Payne nodded, and he had already thought up the sensational words:

"Du, you gave me hope for the Boilermakers, you know?"

"I?"

Du Qi was a little flattered. In just one day, he changed from a regular customer on the bench to an existence that the old man thought was the "God of Hope"!
Wow haha!
Don't feel so good!

Before Paynter continued to be sensational, Du Qi looked serious and said seriously:

"Of course it is!

From the day I entered the 'Boilermakers' team, I knew I would be the hope of the whole team!

because!

I will be a talented basketball player who leads everyone to win the NCAA championship! "

"Uh……"

Painter couldn't bear him.

Do you want to play like this?
You've taken all my sensational scenes, you bastard!
But in the end Painter still laughed hahaha:

"Not bad, hehehe..."
