Junior Basketball says

Chapter 130
The short vacation flew by. Xu Hao dragged his suitcase to say goodbye to his parents and girlfriend, and headed to the other side of the ocean again.After this period of rest, he felt extremely energetic and couldn't wait to take the stage right away.

After the long-distance flight, Xu Hao, who was a little tired, just turned on his mobile phone, and a text message from Coach Evans popped up, with only a few lines on it: "Don't rush back to school after getting off the plane, call me right away, remember!"

Xu Hao was a little puzzled, did something happen to the school?After taking back his luggage, he was full of doubts and directly called the coach's mobile phone.The call came through quickly, and it seemed Evans had been waiting to hear from him.

Before Xu Hao could speak, Evans asked hastily, "Xu, are you not sick?"

Xu Hao laughed and said, "Coach, is it popular to say hello like this in the United States this year? My health is very good. I can eat and sleep at home. I feel that I am strong enough to kill a cow now. Illness means nothing to me. doesn't exist."

Evans breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "You wait for me at the airport, and I will drive over to pick you up later."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Hao felt that the coach was a little weird, but he couldn't say what was so strange. He felt that the coach seemed to be in a hurry... In less than 10 minutes, Evans' old Ford car stopped Beside Xu Hao, he rolled up the car window and said loudly, "Get in the car quickly, young man, the situation is not very good now, we have to hurry up."

Xu Hao threw the luggage into the trunk, opened the co-pilot's door and sat in.He was startled when he saw Evans at the first sight. The old man had obvious dark circles and was quite haggard. He looked as if he had aged several years.

Xu Hao couldn't help asking: "Coach, what happened to the team during my return to China?"

Evans licked his dry lips, staring at the front with full concentration, and said: "The night before yesterday, James rented a house with many people to hold a party. I didn't care too much. This guy likes to party with you." I know. As a result, many players who played with him said they were not feeling well and started to have a high fever yesterday morning. I sent them directly to the hospital. The doctor said it was food poisoning. Although there was nothing serious, it was still I will continue to stay in the hospital for observation for a period of time..."

Food poisoning?inward observation?Xu Hao instantly understood why the coach's face was so ugly.The day after tomorrow, the team will play against Washington State University at home, and Harden and his team are obviously unable to play in their state, and the team's undefeated golden body is likely to be broken.Although everyone knows that it is difficult to maintain a perfect season all season, no one wants to lose casually.

Moreover, the strong performance of Arizona State University in the first half made many opponents in the same district dare not speak out. This time, facing Washington State University, which is not bad, the opponent is likely to hold back its strength to find the field. It might be a fiasco.

Xu Hao was silent for a while, then asked in a deep voice: "Then do we have any players who can play now?"

Evans sighed and said a few names, Xu Hao was startled, and felt that this matter was very difficult.Leaving aside the main players, even some important substitutes have been recruited one after another. There are only 7 people left in the team who can play, and there is not even a single insider. The tallest is Tyler Rhodes, a rookie. , he is only 2.03 meters.

Among this group of people, the strongest should be former NBA player McMillan's son Jameer McMillan, but he averaged less than 15 minutes per game in the team and is the second substitute on the team's No. [-] position. The data is also very general.

In other words, in the next game, Xu Hao must lead the team to face the opponent alone.

Xu Hao's silence made Evans sigh secretly, but he couldn't say anything. Should Xu Hao be asked to help Sun Devil win the game under such circumstances?Washington State University is not a salty fish team that can be dismissed casually.

He freed his hand and patted Xu Hao's shoulder and said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just do your best."

Xu Hao didn't nod or shake his head. We still have to wait until the team's training to see the specific situation.Immediately, he changed the subject and said, "Coach, if it's convenient, I want to go and see James and the others. Is it okay?"

Evans thought for a while and said: "No problem, I will take you there now, remember, don't stay in James's ward for too long. If you also get the flu because of this, then we will really play this game There's no chance."

After sending Xu Hao to the hospital, Evans left directly. He didn't plan to go up with Xu Hao to visit his players.He felt that Xu Hao and Harden should have something to say, and it might not be very convenient for him to be by the side.

A lot of players were recruited by Arizona State University this time, and they didn't live in the same ward. The school arranged them all in double wards.Xu Hao is going to see Harden first, and Hayward who lives in the same ward with him.

Pushing open the door, the two guys were lying sickly on the hospital bed, looking listless.Harden is black, but now Xu Hao feels that his skin color is not the healthy black before, but obviously a little dull.As a white man, Hayward was even paler, and his lips were bloodless. The situation seemed to be more serious than Harden.

Seeing Xu Hao push the door in, Harden struggled to sit up, he forced a smile and said, "Are you back?"

Xu Hao hurried over to hold him down, and said with a little reproach: "Lie down before you recover, what do you want to say?"

Harden sighed and said, "If only I hadn't organized that party, Xu, I'm sorry..."

Xu Hao shook his head: "Now is not the time to say sorry. Things have already happened. All we have to do is face it."

Hayward said sullenly from the side: "We are going to lose in the next game. It is really not reconciled to say it. After being beaten by us in the first half, Washington State University definitely hopes to take advantage of this time to complete the game." Revenge?"

Seeing the mournful looks of his two teammates, Xu Hao suddenly said with pride: "Who said we are going to lose in the next game? Even if we really want to lose to the opponent, I will let them fight hard." Lost some teeth!"

Harden asked in surprise: "Isn't it? Do you think our current lineup can still win?"

Xu Hao snorted, "It's all about human effort. Even if I lose, I will lose hard!"
