King of the Point Guard Era

Chapter 232 Restructured Rookie Challenge

He Yixiang and Su Ruoxuan slept until the sun was three shots, then hurriedly got up, ate something casually and rushed to the training hall.

Although it has been decided that this time the rookie game, I just go up to play soy sauce, but I still feel that the training hall is better on time.

However, He Yixiang in the training hall felt deceived at this time, because this year's Rookie Challenge came to a restructuring. Although He Yixiang knew that he had been selected for the Rookie Challenge, he just wanted to play soy sauce and didn't pay attention to it seriously.

This year's Rookie Challenge will adopt a mixed competition system. TNT commentator "Shark" O'Neal, who retired from the league last year, and another well-known old commentator, that is, "King Fan" Barkley, will choose players to compete with each other, but unfortunately , He Yixiang fell into the clutches of Barkley, while his teammate Cousins ​​was chosen by his idol "Shark" O'Neal.

This made Cousins ​​extremely excited. Seeing Cousins ​​jumping up and down happily, He Yixiang also complained in his heart, you guy, do you want me to pass the ball to you in the future?But now he can't protect himself.

Because Barkley is very unhappy now, because the lineup given to him this time is really not very strong. Facing the later battle with TNT commentators, he didn't want to admit defeat like this, so although he was very reluctant, he still played first-hand. Among the choices, He Yixiang was chosen, the most powerful person in the entire Rookie Challenge.

And O'Neal just smiled, he didn't seem to be surprised by Barkley's choice at all, but changed hands and chose He Yixiang's best partners, Cousins ​​and Griffin, in an instant, there were two more players in O'Neal's lineup. A top insider.

In the end, O'Neal got Cousins, Griffin, Jeremy Lin, Markieff Morris, Wall, Ricky Rubio, Kemba Walker, Norris Cole, Brandon Knight, Greg Monroe lineup.

On Barkley's side, he got He Yixiang, Irving, Gordon Hayward, Paul George, Derek Williams, Marshan Brooks, Evan Turner, Thiago Splitley Kawhi Leonard, Tristan Thompson lineup.Although the lineup does not look as luxurious as the opposite side, but, I have to say, Barkley is very talented in evil, and he almost selected all the small forwards.

However, knowing that the game is about to start, He Yixiang came late, which made Barkley very unhappy. If there is no He Yixiang in this game, then he can almost surrender with his hands up. Cousins ​​​​and Griffin Two people will directly bomb the basket.

In the following training, Barkley was also very dissatisfied with He Yixiang's state. During the three-point training, he missed five consecutive three-pointers and only made 100 of 64 three-pointers?After facing all kinds of siege and double-teaming this season, you still have a 42% three-point shooting percentage on quick shots off the dribble.And now such a hit rate almost made Barkley roll up his sleeves and say that I can do it.

He Yixiang himself was a little embarrassed to shoot this percentage. After all, he "excessively used his waist" last night, and now he can't use his waist every time he shoots.Seeing his teammates looking at him suspiciously, He Yixiang could only touch his head to hide his embarrassment.

After all, there are many teammates who have been beaten by me before. Irving, George, and Turner, these three are all players who defended themselves this year and then got blown up. Seeing He Yixiang's training state, I can't believe it. I just went up and peeled He Yixiang's skin to see who was practicing three-pointers wearing He Yixiang's skin.

At this time, Barkley already had a deep sense of powerlessness attacking him. He felt that his veteran TNT commentator was about to be counterattacked by a newcomer.He walked behind He Yixiang and patted him on the shoulder: "He, did you do it on purpose?"

He Yixiang looked back and saw Barkley's ferocious fat face, and he was terrified in an instant. This guy who serves as a power forward doesn't look tall, and he can be sure that the chance is not two meters long. In the era when there were so many people in the era, he averaged 80 rebounds per game, and he was even the rebounding leader in the 90-11.7 season. One can imagine how strong he is.He Yixiang estimated that if he had a fight with him, he would be KO'd to the ground in only 86 seconds. Of course, he must have run away deliberately.

Barkley's face became darker and darker, and He Yixiang's wandering mind was awakened by Irving's coughing body, and then he remembered Barkley's question, and he said to Barkley in a little embarrassment: "Yesterday, my agent came. Yes, she and I have discussed a very important endorsement contract for a long time." It is indeed a contract, if the marriage certificate can be counted as a contract.

Barkley has a very thorough understanding of He Yixiang. He naturally knows that He Yixiang's agent is now under the banner of CAA, the largest sports agency in North America, but he is also his girlfriend. If he went to discuss the contract last night, it would be a genius Believe it.He touched his forehead helplessly and looked at He Yixiang: "Don't you know that this year's Rookie Challenge will be restructured? I don't want to lose!"

"I don't know about the restructuring this year. If I had known that there would be such a thing, I would definitely take this rookie challenge very seriously. But now, I can only do my best. In other words, originally I was Those who want to participate in the All-Star Game just want to play soy sauce in the Rookie Challenge!" He Yixiang looked at Barkley with an innocent face.

"Get rid of this damn idea as soon as possible. I look forward to seeing you become the first player to win the Rookie Challenge MVP consecutively." Barkley's voice is still echoing in He Yixiang's ears. At the same time, he is also In particular, he found a physical recovery trainer to help He Yixiang regain his strength. He decided to let Maurice Cheeks and Mike Fratello (the head coach of the Barkley team) practice He Yixiang 30 times tonight. minutes or more.

Looking at the back of Barkley leaving, He Yixiang was a little helpless. It seemed that he wanted to save a little energy to cope with tomorrow's skills challenge and three-point contest, but it sounds like the rookie challenge mvp is nothing. Honor, can't prove anything, but it's an unprecedented thing to get two, which sounds very exciting!
Moreover, the guy Cousins ​​dared to laugh at me just now. It is better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Just tonight, I must let Cousins ​​taste his strength. This is the first time he has played in a game other than training Against Cousins.
